Thank you to Lot40 we had a group of 15 and had our dinners catered for. They were substantial and delicious. We also really enjoyed the distilled and local beers and their own gin. Would highly recommend the tasting glasses. Highly recommend!

Just back from another Derby trip and I have to mention Lot 40. Great people, awesome food(gotta try the Ruben) and a fabulous place to have a few beers after riding the best trails. Shout out to Kate, Tim, Kaz and Christina for their hospitality and awesomeness. They even had a crazy old bloke playing live music that added to the vibe. See you all in November

Absolutely fabulous. Kate and the team went above and beyond to make the lunch so special for my finance and I. Flowers were organised, a private white cloth table setting on the balcony, and the cleanest steak burger I've ever had. Vegetarian burger was also light and delicious. Took home a bottle of gin and some of their epic cookies. Next time I'm in the area, will definitely be making another stop at Lot40.

My mate and I visited Lot 40 on 2 occasions. 1st for dinner and drinks, then breakfast the following morning. First and foremost, the food is spectacular. Easily the best steak sandwich I've ever had, and the Kimchi Pancakes/Fritters were so on point. I think the chef's name was Christina and she really knows how to cook. The spiced gin, I had one sip, then stood up and bought a bottle. It's a very smooth, easy drinking spiced gin. Strongly recommend. Then the staff were also super nice. We both had an awesome time here and would strongly recommend visiting when you are here to visit the trails or the floating sauna.

Their own craft beer is pretty good. Had an interesting undercooked cauliflower with cold curry sauce and average chips. In comparison to other food options in town they are doing a good job to offer affordable and different food options.

I’ve had plenty of meals here over the past few months and Christina never misses; incredible variety, flavours and combinations of food. Also couldn’t ask for better service than that provided by Jez. Cheers for being our go-to joint for a feed while in Derby

Awesome place, the burguers are fantástic. It take more than 20 min cooking but are very big and tasty. The beers perfect.
