Where to Dine
Delicious Dining in Buxton
Planning a pre-theatre meal or a post-show drink? Buxton boasts a fantastic selection of restaurants, pubs, and cafés to suit every taste.
We’re proud to recommend our Principal Hotel Partners, Champneys Buxton Crescent Hotel & Wellness Spa and the Old Hall Hotel, for delicious, charming, and comfortable dining experiences. For a special pre-theatre meal, explore their menus designed to complement your evening at Buxton Opera House. Welcoming bars, open late, provide the perfect opportunity for a relaxed drink after the curtain falls.
We are also proud to recommend the Palace Hotel & Spa Buxton for pre-theatre dining and post-show drinks. Enjoy delicious food with stunning views over their grounds and garden, or head over to their bar to relax after the performance.
