The Duncombe Arms is a beautiful, traditional country pub situated at the heart of the lovely rural village of Ellastone on the Staffordshire / Derbyshire border. Located on the edge of the Peak District near the towns of Ashbourne and Uttoxeter it is a great place to visit providing a delightful setting in which to enjoy a drink, some lovely food, as well as a chat with friends or family.Come inside and enjoy a roaring log fire, sample our excellent range of beers and wines or enjoy fabulous food from our award-winning chef Scott Law. Or in the summer you can laze in our large garden overlooking the view to Worthy Island Wood.
Welcome to BEAR's hometown; birthplace of our very first store.BEAR Uttoxeter is set inside a once iconic retail space which lay derelict for over 5 years, finally opening its doors in February 2016.Co-Founders Craig & Michael grew up together in Uttoxeter, so we're not exaggerating when we say our hearts & souls have been poured in to this place!
BEAR Ashbourne is housed in the historic ex-Bennetts department store, breathing new life in to the space whilst taking care to preserve any historic architectural features that remain. BEAR was born on the Staffordshire / Derbyshire border, so investing in such an iconic location in Ashbourne feels like a great way to pay homage to the space and our history across the two counties.From brunch to burgers, and coffee to cocktails, BEAR Ashbourne is open 7 days a week and has everything you need to move from day to night. ✨
