About bod Matlock
bod Matlock is a cafe at 22 Dale Rd in Matlock that pours beers from its own brewery and serves its Bod breakfast all day, with sausages on the plate.

Another plate is the American stack pancakes with chicken, bacon and syrup. At the bar, the drinks run from cask beer and Titanic beers to wine and sangria, while cappuccino, coffee, tea and hot chocolate cover the hot side.

Customer Review Summary
The Full Bod breakfast is what reviewers mention most, described as generous, fresh and delicious, with proper sausages, and one diner also had the American stack pancakes with chicken, bacon and syrup. Close behind are the beers, with several praising the Titanic brewline and a good choice of beer and wine, plus an excellent sangria. Coffee, cappuccino and a hot chocolate called outstanding also earn praise, along with a Shakshuka with feta and a club sandwich. Reviewers describe the seating as large and comfortable, the vibe as chill and friendly, and the vintage decor as a draw, and several single out friendly service. The main complaint comes from one beer drinker who says a cask beer looked grey with a very flat head, while another arrived with around three inches of head that was topped up on request, though reluctantly. One reviewer who prefers real pubs still said the beer didn't disappoint.

“Only here for the beer. I like Titanic beers, buy prefer real pubs to this type of establishment. It's obviously very popular and the food looked good. The beer didn't disappoint 👌”
- Catherine Crosby
“I'd go back, but one of the cask beers we were served was very much on its last legs (looking a bit grey and with a very flat head) and the other was served with around 3 inches of head which was topped up on request, though this seemed a little reluctantly... Nice place - comfortable - good location - decent selection. Definitely on our radar for next visit to Matlock 🍻”
- Cliff Perry
