Buxton's first pie restaurant to open
The Pie Society at Gilbert’s, on the High Street, will be feeding customers from Friday February 1, and chef Robbie Keeling is excited about the move.
The 36-year-old said: “I want to put Buxton on the culinary map and the pie restaurant will be a first for the town, which is great news.

With experience gained from working in a variety of restaurants including the Devonshire Arms in Pilsley, on the Chatsworth Estate, Robbie is ready for a new chapter which he hopes will take the well-established Buxton eatery to the next level.
He said: “The pies were a big seller on the old menu and just what you need after a day out in the Buxton fresh air.
“The much-loved Sunday roast is still staying, but pies will be available six days a week.”
