  • The Open House team first met John Parsons when we opened our kitchen a year and a half ago, through our kitchen manager Maria McCaffrey. Maria had worked with John previously at The Sir William, a historic inn in Grindleford, and had only the highest praise for his cooking as a chef there.

    John is local to Hope Valley and has built up a solid reputation and loyal following during his many years as a chef, working in a variety of establishments across Sheffield and North Derbyshire including The Anglers Rest, Sheffield’s Food and Fine Wine, The Beer Engine, The Kitchen on Ecclesall Road, Breedon Cement Works Canteen and The Hathersage Social Club.

    Almost everyone you speak to locally knows of John Parsons and raves about his cooking, and it’s easy to see why - his food is creative and refined but not at all fussy, a mix of French classical with British traditional pub grub, using local ingredients with global flavours and cooking styles.

    We recently had the chance to see John in action in our kitchen at Open House, cooking an incredible Yorkshire-themed feasting table for a private event, and we’re delighted to have him back again for a kitchen takeover.

  • Vegan menu option available mirroring all the flavours and textures. Please let us know if you have any other food allergies or intolerances we should know about, and we will do our best to cater for your needs.
