Our Lounge

Handsome green Ostello Lounge sits on Bakewell Road, just off Crown Square in the middle of Matlock. We’ve windows running all along the front, that can open right out to let the outside in when the Peak District weather allows!

Our roomy space inside stretches back to some cosy corners under a galaxy of star lights, with a gallery’s worth of paintings on the richly wallpapered walls. Our cotton reel mural behind the bar celebrates the Derwent Valley’s proud cotton heritage. Yes, reel-y.

We hold a quiz every other Tuesday and Bingo every other Sunday. Please get in touch to find out when these events are scheduled.

Home From Home

Ostello Lounge is a relaxed, neighbourhood café bar in Matlock, serving great food all day, every day. Come on in to enjoy your home-from-home.

Ostello means ‘hostel’ in Italian. While we certainly are a bit of a hostelry, this is in honour of the mighty YHA (Youth Hostel Association), headquartered in Matlock. There are over 150 hostels in Britain today, and you don’t have to be a youth to stay in them.

Opening Times

Sunday - Thursday 9am - 10pm
Friday & Saturday 9am - midnight
