Burntstump in Gedling

This is such a lovely homely pub. Very family and dog friendly, but also a lovely relaxed atmosphere for date night. Me and my husband visited for tea with our 7 year old son last week. We had two steaks and a children's bbq chicken burger. The food was delicious, chips so crispy but fluffy inside, and steaks cooked perfectly as requested. There is a dog menu too, if you want to include your pup. Water bowls available and a station to buy dog treats from. We love coming here in the summer too as there's a park in the attached woods for kids to play on and a lovely patio seating area with a big green for the kids to have a play on. Would definitely recommend.

Great food great service atmosphere of the pub was nice and calm would definitely recommend it meals came out fast and staff in bar were super nice

Staff super friendly, Quick service despite being busy and very clearly understaffed. Food tasted great and arrived nice and warm. Our dog got lots of special attention and made us feel very welcome, Will definitely be returning!

Have started charging to park without any warning ‼️ Dog walkers beware or you will end up with a £100 fine !! I certainly won’t be returning.

Sorry but definitely not going back again. For starters the staff weren’t engaging, no atmosphere, clientele left a lot to be desired. If I’m out for lunch with friends then to me, swearing is not on the menu, or screaming kids. Our table was in the middle of both. The food was just ok, nothing particularly stood out. Very mediocre. Wish we hadn’t bothered. When I told someone we were going there face said it all, they said it wasn’t somewhere they would go but of course we had booked and it was the same day we were going and thought it wasn’t fair to cancel last minute. So we tried it for ourselves. Should’ve listened and cancelled, I don’t think they would have noticed or cared. No one checked if everything was ok Yes we should have complained there and then but we are voting with our feet and purses.

Service was shocking all looked like they didn't want to be there and like they already had an issue with you.. about 3 members of staff on all rude.Took our meals to the wrong table after waiting half an hour then 3 tables that ordered after us got there meal and ares came another half an hour later.I had steak which was just about warm and VERY fatty for a sirloin. Partner had burger which was same temperature and nothing special.Overall probably the worst meal and service I've ever recieved.. whole table outside full of plates and empty glasses attracting flies etc. Do not go.

Review based on my visit on 20th April 2015.Arrived approximately 16.30hrs and it would of been nice if someone greeted us straight away, thus to start things on a positive note.(STARTER) I had the Golden Breaded Mushrooms for starters, these come over cooked and has a struggle to get my fork into them.(MAIN COURSE) I had the Gammon for main course, it was nice, even though I've had better before.(PUDDING) I had the Sticky Toffee, very nice.(STAFF) There was enough staff on duty, and on the whole they were friendly, but they were poorly trained and there did not seem to being led in the right direction. This is a management failure! The service could be so much better.Would I eat here again? I'm in no rush to go back!!!

We've been coming to The Burnt Stump on and off as a couple for about a year, my partner has been coming here since his teens and we've never had a bad experience here. We mostly frequent this establishment as it is close to our places of work and is on our way home and serves food till 9pm, which suits our working day nicely.The staff are always ridiculously friendly (despite being rushed off their feet) and we are always warmly greeted. We are warned about food waiting times when we arrive and it always arrives in a shorter time scale than estimated, the quality of food has always been of a decent standard but tonights meal was quite exceptional!We strongly recommend the mixed grill (large appetite required!) and the sirloin with port and stilton sauce - both plentiful, cooked to perfection and incredibly tasty!It can get quite noisy when busy (as expected) but we recommend sitting in the booths at the far end of the venue for less of a 'walk-through'.A beautiful setting, a great out-of-town visit and a decent meal for weary workers!
