Welcome To The Wheatsheaf, Old Glossop.
Your hosts, Bob & Irene Skupham, daughters Hannah and Jessica and all our loyal staff, welcome you to our little Pub here in the lovely village of Old Glossop, (the Gateway to the High Peak)
It is our intention to bring to your tables good, honest, home-cooked food using local suppliers wherever possible.
We work closely with Mettricks butchers, Sowerbutts greengrocers and Praze Fine Foods in Glossop, our fishmonger Tony delivers fresh fish to us twice a week.
All our suppliers provide us with not only excellent produce but excellent service and expertise.
All the pastries and batters for our pies and puddings are hand made from scratch and of course we serve fresh home cut chips, (not frozen!).
Please note that we do not have a 'Children's Menu' offering children's 'processed' style food but we will cook any of our meals in a smaller portion. If they really want 'chicken nuggets' then we will make some for them, using fresh chicken and home made batter.
We trust you enjoy your meals and refreshments.
Bob & Irene
