- Upstairs by Tom Shepherd★ Michelin Located in the centre of Lichfield above his father's jewellery shop, this clever conversion provides a warm, relaxing space to show off the eponymous chef’s talents. It’s a deservedly popular place, offering short and long tasting menus that feature impressive dishes where flavour is to the fore and every ingredient has a purpose. Desserts are a highlight and could include the likes of 72% Araguani chocolate with crème fraîche, pecan, caramel and sherry. The attentive, enthusiastic staff genuinely love their restaurant – and you will too.16.1km
- The Boat★ Michelin Over the years, this smart roadside hostelry has evolved into a proper dining destination. The on-site ‘micro farm’ provides many of the top-drawer ingredients on the menu, while trusted local producers supply the rest. All of them are treated with a skilled, detailed approach by Chef Liam Dillon and his team, resulting in the likes of tender Staffordshire venison with smoked beetroot or Amalfi lemon parfait with their own fragrant honey. The whole experience is elevated by smooth, engaging service and dish descriptions from the chefs.18.2km
- Larder Brasserie and Grill ‘All flavour, no pomp’ is the tagline at this relaxed, warmly run restaurant – and that’s exactly what you’ll get. Sit in the boldly decorated first floor restaurant or book a seat at the chefs table to be close to the action. Attractively presented modern dishes are sure to satisfy.16.2km
- Lighthouse Restaurant The Lighthouse acts a culinary beacon in the Derbyshire countryside. A sweet, intimate restaurant, it provides a platform for the self-taught chef's ambitious seasonal cooking, which is presented as either a tasting menu or midweek 'Grazing Menu'. The latter offers great value for money and is designed for sharing, providing a shorter, more relaxed dining experience. Whichever menu you enjoy, look out for the fantastic, Thai-inspired coconut and chilli broth. A good selection of keenly priced wines accompanies.17.5km
- Little Seeds Little Seeds has a bright, fresh, natural look with green walls, foliage and rustic, upcycled furniture. A smattering of cookery books adds to the homely feel – and there’s a walled garden and drinks terrace out the back too. Great quality regional ingredients are used to create eye-catching British dishes with the occasional playful touch. The popular Sunday lunch menu features roast Staffordshire beef.17.6km
