Some things never go out of style
Welcome back to a golden era.
Where we don’t just romanticise the past, we celebrate each moment.
Here we escort you to the glamour and sophistication of the Roaring Twenties.
A perfect backdrop for enjoying life and savouring the moment.
So, be present, bold, romantic and fabulous,
and let’s meet at The Charleston.
A place where elegance and opulence collide
Step back in time at our cocktail bar and restaurant that’s like no other in the Peak District, where chandeliers glow, cocktails flow, and the everyday feels just a little more fabulous.
The spirit of the 1920s awaits. With intimate dining, opulent decor, live jazz music, hidden doors and unexpected delights, we provide the perfect backdrop for enjoying an eclectic selection of dishes and savouring expertly crafted cocktails that echo the spirit of a bygone era.
And when the evening calls for something truly special, you’ll find us tinkling the ivories on our baby grand – live jazz, soulful standards and a touch of theatre that brings The Charleston to life.
A new story begins in Bakewell
Located in the heart of Bakewell, Derbyshire, within the storied walls of the historic Royal Bank of Scotland building, dating back to 1838, The Charleston is more than just a venue; it’s a place where a community comes together to enjoy the finer things in life, creating unforgettable memories with every visit.
We’re deeply committed to supporting our local suppliers and community alike. By prioritising partnerships with Derbyshire producers, farmers and craftspeople, we celebrate the unique traditions and flavours of the Peak District.
Our guests can enjoy high-quality food and drink in an atmosphere that is both glamorous and inviting. The space is designed for people to chat, have fun, and share signature moments, surrounded by extraordinary touches.

We champion talent, nurture creativity, and believe in building a team that brings joy to every day. If you’re driven, detail-obsessed and love working in a place that always aims higher, your next chapter might just start here.
