Sock & Buskin

Find us

Sock & Buskin, so named after the Greek comedy and tragedy masks which have symbolised and adorned the Performing Arts for centuries, is a local bar, inspired by the culture, theatre and history of our beautiful home town of Buxton.

Allow our General Manager and resident cocktail aficionado, Jake, to guide you through our list of hand crafted cocktails using our bespoke S&B London dry gin.
Alternatively, ask for a sample of any of our elegant wines, many of which are organic, biodynamic or natural and all of which are available by the glass. For those who seek faster gratification from refreshment, we have a range of award winning Buxton Brewery draught beers.
If you would like some tasty morsels to accompany your libations, our incredible Head Chef, Dan, sources the finest ingredients from suppliers within 10 miles of where you are sat to create wonderful small plates specifically designed to complement our drinks offering.
So relax, imbibe and revel. As Sock & Buskin would endorse – ‘laugh now, cry later’.
