Molly in Derbyshire
Welcome to my blog. It’s fabulous to have you here! I’m Molly. I live in Chesterfield on the edge of the Peak District in Derbyshire with my husband and daughter. One of my favourite things in life is eating out and discovering new places to go. I’m really passionate about lovely, local, indie businesses and feel it’s never been more important to support our local economy.
I hope that my reviews shine a light on some of the absolute hidden gems we have here in Derbyshire. I’m always honest but I’m not here to be critical or mean spirited. If businesses feature here it’s because I truly rate them. If I’ve not enjoyed somewhere, they don’t get a mention. People trust my opinion and I recognise what a huge responsibility that is. I would hate to recommend anywhere that then disappoints.
