There are few things in life that beat a meal with a view. At The Peacock at Owler Bar, we’re lucky enough to have one of the finest spots in the Peak District to do exactly that.
Our outdoor terrace sits at the edge of the moorland, with panoramic views stretching out across the Peak District landscape. Whether you’re watching the seasons change across the hills or simply soaking up a patch of sunshine, it’s the kind of setting that makes any meal feel like a proper occasion.

A menu made for sharing
Food just tastes better outside and our menu was made for exactly this kind of occasion. We’ve built it around small plates and sharing dishes, so you can graze, explore and try a little bit of everything without the pressure of committing to just one thing.
Our small plates are the kind of dishes that spark a little debate around the table, in the best possible way. From crispy fish tacos and spiced pakoras to pistachio chimichurri prawns, they’re bold, shareable and genuinely hard to choose between.
If you’re with a group or simply can’t choose, our sharing boards are the answer. We offer both a meat sharing plate and a plant-based sharing plate, each packed with a generous selection that give you a proper spread without any of the menu-decision stress. They’re brilliant for a relaxed lunch on the terrace or for getting the whole table involved.
Something heartier? We’ve got you covered
For those who prefer something a little more substantial, our large plates are proper, satisfying food done well. The homemade pie of the week is a firm Peacock favourite, changing regularly and always made with care. Our chicken Milanese is always a crowd-pleaser and our beer-battered fish and chips is the kind of classic that earns its place on any menu.
And if you’re joining us on a Friday, keep an eye out for our Fish Fryday deal. With the My Longbow app, you can enjoy our beer-battered fish and chips with a drink for just £17.95.
Make an evening of it with our Seasonal Set Menu
Thinking of turning a visit into a proper dining night out? Our seasonal set menu is available Monday through Saturday and offers incredible value for a restaurant-quality experience in the Peak District.
Choose from two courses for £21.95 or three courses for £26.95, drawing from a carefully curated selection of our small plates, large plates and desserts. It’s the kind of menu that lets you eat well, try more and leave feeling like you’ve had a genuine treat without overspending.
Drinks worth lingering over
Great food deserves great drinks, and we take our bar just as seriously as our kitchen. Our drinks menu has been put together with the same care and attention as everything else at The Peacock, with something to suit every mood and every moment.
We stock a hand-picked selection of local spirits that celebrate the best of the region, alongside a range of seasonal cocktails crafted to complement the food and the setting. On draught, you’ll find a rotating line-up of real ales and lager, perfect for a long afternoon on the terrace. And for wine lovers, our curated wine list offers considered choices by the glass and bottle, whether you’re after something crisp and light for a sunny afternoon or a richer pour to go with a sharing board.
The terrace is, without question, the best place to enjoy them.
