I find it stressful going out but I love coming here. The service is always great, the carvery has been delicious both times I’ve been in the last month and the sticky toffee pudding is to die for. If you like good customer service with a nice family atmosphere then this place is for you. Especially with the added bonus of a kids play area out back. That was an unexpected surprise when we went. Will definitely be coming again
Booked a table early lunch on Sunday and I'm glad to see that this place was really popular, a good sign. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Carvery choice was great, and well-stocked. will definitely return.
We stopped off here on our way home from a long drive back from our holiday. Absolutely brilliant service from start to finish. The guy who came to seat us was really friendly and welcoming and seated us really quickly. Service at the bar was really quick and friendly too. The guy who served our food was really quick and friendly too. Couldn't fault the food, all beautifully cooked, hot and well presented. Plenty to choose from. Really impressed with the service. The staff were really friendly with our toddler as well. Will definitely be going back again and have recommended to family and friends already.
Manager was very helpful and chefs/waiting staff friendly. Good range of veg etc and extensive menu. Only negative was the cake, it wasn’t like the display cake and for £6.50 was a bit of a waste 😁
A good size carpark
Check in is in the bar
The building opposite is the hotel
Just stairs no lift
The room was spacious as was the bathroom.
Good black out curtains
WiFi excellent
Shower was hot and powerful
Breakfast not Included but was served in the pub
Evening meal in the pub was excellent plenty of good choices and brilliant value
Had the carvery even though it was late in the evening everything was still nice and hot .
Bed was very comfortable
On the outskirts of Derby nice walks and running spots close by
Would definitely stay again and recommend
Super reasonable priced food and the carvery is fantastic, the gravy here out shines the competition.
Lovely friendly staff make this a brilliant local.
Unplanned Sunday meal..
Would like to have seen brussels & cabbage in the vegetable choice.
Roasties were only lighty done. Have to pay more for 'proper roasties' 🤷♂️..
General prices comparable to area.
Staff were pleasant.
Food brought out and tables cleared fairly quickly.
Really friendly staff, great rooms and great food.
They have different options for each day of the week.
Monday- pie and a drink night
Tuesday- burger and a drink night
Wednesday- curry and a drink night
Thursday - steak and a drink night
All the prices are very reasonable too, I would highly recommend.
A great little hotel on the same site as the pub. Really quiet considering quite near a main road and the rooms were clean. Staff are really friendly especially the breakfast servers. We come every few months for a short stay when visiting relatives
Friendly and helpful staff. They missed off the burger sauce from my burger but otherwise the food was lovely. The staff were very good with my son who has ADHD.
Brilliant. We all had very different meals and the food was superb.
Service, also brilliant. Not fussy in any way but plain simple service and well looked after. We'll be coming again.
Great seeing staff get along which makes a great environment
Great food we had burgers and they were amazing
Lovely service from the lady bringing our food and drink
Great pub. The carvery is good value with a nice selection of sides and veg. Friendly people working.
On a side note, (at time of writing) the location on Google Maps is incorrect, the pub is actually located next to the Kingsway Retail Park (where the Inn is correctly located).
Stayed over night for an early hospital appointment. Just down the road from derby royal. Lovely comfy bedroom , food in the pub was excellent
Stopped in for lunch, standard pub menu items and a carvery so plenty of choice, from small starters, to burgers, sharing platters and other items. Large pub so lots of seating and outside seating too.
Very welcoming, staff attentive. Elderly Aunt enjoyed the Lighter fish & chips very much ( and she is fussy!!)
We had medium carvery. Guy on carvery very friendly. Nice meal, just enough vegetables as in some places there are too many. Only slight criticism the gravy was too thin and rather tasteless. Definitely will return and would recommend.
Popped in for a quick lunch
Both my self and hubby had fish and chips and it was lovely. The fish was a really decent size, in fact took some home for our dog because I couldn't eat it all.
As it was a week day it wasn't busy. Had a nice relaxed atmosphere and the service was good.
