Quick info
About The Thorn Tree Inn
The Thorn Tree Inn is a pub in Matlock, found at 48 Jackson Rd. It sits on a hilltop, so reaching it means an uphill walk, and the pub has views from that height. The bar serves a selection of ales, and the pub keeps those ales in good condition. Dogs are welcome, so owners can bring a pet along for the climb and for the visit itself once they arrive.

Reviewers mostly praise the beer, pointing to well kept ales and a fair price per pint, with the friendly owner and lovely bar staff close behind. The views are described as wonderful and fantastic, and one reviewer says the walk uphill justified the beer.

“Recently moved to the area and been to this pub a couple of times now. Lovely little pub with wonderful view, very friendly owner and fair price beer. Bonus the walk up hill that justified the beer guilt.”
