Goose at Gamston in Rushcliffe

La comida promedio, en comparación con otros lugares que hemos visitado, el servicio de mesa fue un buen toque, el personal es amable y la decoración es buena, signos de desgaste. Pero un buen lugar, sin duda volveremos de nuevo al pasar.

During my visits to The Goose at Gamston over the past few months, I have been consistently disappointed by the service and overall experience. On three separate occasions, despite being told the kids’ club was fully booked when attempting to reserve by phone, the venue was notably devoid of customers. This raised concerns about the transparency and efficiency of their booking system. Moreover, the bar staff’s demeanor left much to be desired; each interaction felt as though I were imposing on them with my requests. A particular instance that stood out was a request for potatoes without garlic. I was informed that it was impossible to accommodate this, as the potatoes were pre-seasoned. Yet, when the food arrived after a considerable wait, the potatoes on two meals were entirely unseasoned. This inconsistency was especially disheartening given that it was a Sunday roast, a meal that typically promises comfort and satisfaction. The lack of warmth and hospitality from the staff is puzzling, making it difficult to understand how The Goose sustains its business. It is regrettable that what could be a charming local establishment is marred by such experiences.

Been to The Goose a few times in the evenings with friends and always good food and friendly staff. Brought my family for lunch today and wasn’t disappointed. The Sunday lunch was lovely and the children enjoyed their meals. Will definitely be back with the family.

Hoping to grab a bight to eat at this pub on the way home from a holiday. It was already a late lunch. We asked the waitress for a table and she rudely told us we are not serving food. There was no mention of no food been served outside the restaurant or on the pub website. I don't believe this is acceptable.

Came for a Sunday roast and it was ok. Nothing to make us come back. Asked for non garlic potatoes and it was such an effort. The staff in general had miserable faces on them and no greeting. Returned again to use wacky warehouse and it was fully booked on a saturday afternoon, 3 adults had been spotted inside. I lived in the area 8 years never had to book before. Such effort again for staff to be polite. Awful place

Met up with friends on Thursday evening for a few drinks and was pleasantly surprised with service and atmosphere, friendly welcome from ebony and the rest of the team. Would definitely recommend.

Came in this pub for a quick meal with my husband. Expected average food, but was pleasantly surprised. Two girls ebony and chloe were very smiley and happy, would recommend

Great experience Came in for Mother’s Day, never been before, but wanted to try somewhere new. Great parking Food is really nice and reasonable prices Ebony was really helpful as we actually booked for a different pub but they still managed to fit us in. We really appreciated this and will definitely be visiting here again Big thank you to all the staff

Great service - Chloe M very helpful and nothing was too much bother. Food was great. Will be returning soon thank you! Xx

Nice atmosphere and also friendly staff, Nice food. Fantastic thanks very much. Chloe may and ebonie were exceptional!

March 2024 We visited here for a last minute lunch on Friday 8th March. What a pleasant experience we had! A young lady called Ebony served us and she was nothing but professional and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble and she had a lovely smile on her face each time we were served by her. Would definitely return here and do hope to see ebony again as it was a refreshing change to be greeted so warmly and professional. Thank you

Just been to the goose for some food and drinks with some friends and the service from Ebony, Chloe and Mae was brilliant.

The staff were amazing, very attentive, kept our drinks full. The food was also excellent, also they have great parking space. A special thanks to Mae, Ebony and Chloe, they made our night special and I’ll definitely be coming back!

Really nice evening at the Goose, food was good, atmosphere great and excellent service from Chloe M, keep up the good work!

Fab food, dam good drinks and super service at the Goose at Gamston, special shout out to Chloe M for the fabulous service!!! We be going again!

We've been there twice in 3 weeks. First time was quite busy, food was good, attentive staff but friendly and personable. Few days ago was heaving, staff were pushed but still very friendly and they had to work alot !! We were fine. Table next to us just seemed to be after free food and complaining to get something and told young waitress they'd go on here if they don't get free desserts. What is the world coming to.... If you've not been to the Goose try it yourself rather than listen to freeloaders....

This place is a great date spot. Lovely decor and ambience. The servers are attentive but also leave you alone when you want. The food was spot on as well, I forgot to order a side but it was no problem for the staff. The managed to get the extra side out very quickly! Definitely would go back!

Not been here for a while but will definitely be coming back. The food and the service were excellent. A lovely night was had by us all.

I had the pleasure of visiting as part of a works business lunch with some customers. Was greeted from the start and made to feel welcome. Great service, selection of drinks and most importantly food that was enjoyed by the 6 of us. Good selection of a menu and all hot and cooked as we requested. Would definitely recommend to others and will be sure to visit soon - may even treat the wife this time 😁

Lovely staff, very attentive, food and service spot on, didn’t wait long at all to be greeted seated and served. The food was tasty

Long waiting time for food both main meal and dessert, staff not helpful at all When the food eventually came it was luke warm, small in quantity and in some parts over cooked and dry. The Sunday lunches were the worst we’d ever had. Give...

All of the points raised in previous bad reviews were apparent, food waiting time was excessive and, once the food arrived, was not only cold but very poor in quality and quantity! To take it one step further the excess waiting time for food was...

Very very disappointed with the service received here at The Goose. Pre booked the fun area and a table to dine after for my grandsons birthday. Arrived on time and was informed that there was no space for my grandsons to play and that we...

Came in today with my family had a lovely meal the waitress ebony was very friendly and helpful all the staff was lovely I will definitely be retuning thankyou :)

Shocking breakfast, came to get drinks order but had no milk! Morrisons just down the road!!! Asparagus not cooked and bagel rock hard . Food came out late and not all together, rubbish service do not come for breakfast

Great night Chloe who served us was excellent, the food came out hot , all together and perfectly cooked and there was 13 of us . We'll done GOOSE

Dylan gave fabulous service, very professional and full of smiles. Thank you for a lovely experience. The food was great and Dylan made sure my allergies were catered for.

Had a quick stop for lunch. Couldn't fault anything, food was good. Very Friendly staff, with a special mention for Dylan.

Great place to grab lunch with friends, food and drinks were lovely!! Ebony was friendly with polite service, will defo be returning.

Lovely family friendly pub/restaurant. The food was nice and staff were polite and friendly. Would like to say thank you to Ebony in particular who was very professional and helpful in accommodating us as we had a baby. Her customer service skills are second to...

I was served by the lovely Ebony who I believe was her first day and you couldn’t tell at all. Very attentive and her customer service was brilliant. Nothing was too much to ask and the food was brilliant and came out in due course....

Visited the wacky warehouse today, was greeted by a lovely lady in a striped brown shirt. I believe her name was Chloe as what I heard from other customers. She was very cheerful and always smiling, she interacted with my children brilliantly. A very busy...

Very friendly staff especially Chloe that served us today ,she interacted with all the children and very talkative with very positive attitude towards others ,will definitely come again

Fab food and great friendly staff special thanks to Dylan for his great service and he had a smile upon his face , nothing was to much trouble for him he’s a asset to your team for sure 👌

Me and my family had a great time, food was lovely and service was quick despite it being busy. Dylan our server was very polite and thorough. Would definitely recommend

Well done Chris & Elle for laying on a great buffet for the goose regulars while we all remembered those who are no longer with us .

Visited the goose at gamston as a family of 13 (adult and children) for their festive menu, from the moment I booked it the service was outstanding, Katie who dealt with me several times throughout my booking could not have been more pleasent and helpful,...

A fantastic night in the local remembering absent friends. Was really nice to see some old faces! Thankyou to Elle, Chris and team goose for fantastic service.

Fan bloomingtastic, a few words for absent friends down the local. 👌🏼 What a local is all about, all about great friends and a community spirit. It’s back. Thank you Team Goose.

Thought it was quite poor. I booked on line for four and we thought we were booking for a Christmas lunch. Where on line does it say you have to pre-book for a Christmas Lunch. ! They went to check if we could have a...

We went to lunch today after an awful experience in October. I was not disappointed...the food was excellent and the new manager Elle came over to greet us. She was very professional, courteous and very hospitable. The service was with a smile and I would...

Nice pub , nice staff shocking food . Had a Sunday lunch and was probably worse I had ever had . Food was cold And £14 is top end for a Sunday lunch . Thought give another try and it was bad scampi and chips...

Nice pub with nice atmosphere but the service was unbelievably slow. We were there two hours for just a main course and a drink. 20 mins to even take an order, 35 mins for food to arrive and 20 mins for the bill to arrive....

We mainly went for the wacky warehouse which was quiet because it was a Tuesday evening The person running the wacky warehouse (I didn't get her name) was welcoming, friendly and efficient We had 4 meals in there which were ordered at the counter in...

great food, always consistent. good selection, good range of veggie food as well as for meat lovers staff friendly and efficient

Awful service...waited 35 minutes for the food, such slow service (but I have to say the waitress were pleasant)... we ordered a dessert which said £3.50... we confirmed with the waitress that this was the correct price and she said yes. The portion of the food has git smaller, the sticky toffee pudding was literally two spoonfuls... !! We went to pay and they had charged us the fill proce of the sticky toffee pudding as we had not ordered from the offer menu. ( the full menus were on one sheet ...I explained the waitress had said it was 3 50 and had we known we wld not have ordered..the lady behind the bar said ' of shes new and still getting to know things'... hoofer of an apology or even to give a good will gesture....will NOT be going back. Lots if other people complaing of how long they were waiting.... Pull ure socks up the Goose at Gamston as you will he losing customers.

Cold food - sent back only came out tepid and chips had some awful seasoning on them. Noticed other people sending food back because it was cold

Visited today with a business colleague for a quick lunch. The pub was very clean and inviting. Alisha was very helpful and directed us to a quiet place we could dine whilst still being able to work. it was great to see people so happy...

Great place for families especially with the wacky warehouse. Could t recommended the sirloin steak enough. Staff are fantastic and friendly.

Had a brilliant dinner for a spur of the moment date night. Fantastic atmosphere, brilliant beer and brilliant staff. Shout out to Kim who is a fantastic landlady. See you soon Kim!

Visitors with my 2 young boys, the manager Kim was great with the boys! She could see they were nervous to play in wacky warehouse incase there were too many children, she showed the boys around and made them feel so comfortable. It was so...

Really enjoyed our family meal. Staff were attentive and helpful from the moment we arrived. Food was delicious. Booking again soon as it was such a lovely evening.

Can’t praise this pub enough. Fantastic service, excellent food, well priced beer and very friendly atmosphere. Had the pleasure of talking to the manager Kim who was accommodating and welcoming at all times. Great experience and will be a regular!

I brought my wife to celebrate our special anniversary, We both had some delicious food and top quality drinks. Kimberley went above and beyond to make my wife feel just like the amazing women she is. Thank you Kimberley

This was the worst dining experience I have ever had food came out cold staff argumentative absolutely awful I highly recommend to avoid we ended up going home very disappointed and very hungry wasn't expecting to go home and order pizzas when we were looking forward to Sunday lunch without the stress of cooking it ourselves the food was sent back twice and they still had the nerve to try and charge me in the end we paid for our drinks which were still half full left on the table will never return to this pub

Lovely atmosphere and really friendly staff. Definitely be back again! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to my friends too!

As a local who remembers good food at the goose, not recently, we decided to give it a chance after a year or more away. Sadly no better. Ordered a chicken sharer and a side of chips for a light snack. Deep fried chicken was ok, though only one goujon, kebabs and tikka strips were both Luke warm when it arrived. Pointed out it was cold and was taken back to the kitchen. After a quick zap in the microwave it was brought back with onion rings that had originally been missed off. Unfortunately it isn’t possible to “char grill” in a microwave so wife decided kebabs were inedible. Charging 60 for xmas dinner and if they can’t do a chicken sharer at a quiet time god help anyone who books.

A pretty poor experience. New barman did his best and was fine, otherwise the other staff were as welcoming as the iron curtain. In fact quite rude and unprofessional in our opinion. The food was ok but cutlery, plates and glasses were just not clean. We asked for a straw for a child’s drink and they said they didn't have any even though there was one on the bar that had been used. We definitely won’t be back!!

Visited on a Thursday evening and we were immediately struck by how quiet the dining area was…. I guess we now know why….! Ordered a mixed grill and a beef and ale pie and a bottle of wine… wine glasses were brought still wet from...

A great atmosphere with the best staff! Kim the manager is a great character and always a pleasure to meet. Millie our Border Terrier loves her too!

Absolutely great experience. It was my son's 1st birthday, although he didn't like the wackey warehouse,he absolutely demolished the food and so did me and my daughter and my best friend. Want to say a huge thanks to josh the assistant manager for making us...

Good selection of lagers but food was shocking. Chicken dry, fajitas lukewarm, burger was like a microwave meal and steak was like eating a piece of leather would not recommend food at all.

Not one to review places but felt necessary for this pub. service was out standing from our waitress Nicole she made our visit very enjoyable sorted everything with our food quickly and was a great laugh. Tried to tip her but only accept tips for...

For a big pub we were suprised they don't seem to cook enough roasts to last a sunday- none left at 2.30pm when we were told on the phone they serve it til 6pm . Had to have veg option but felt short changed with...

Fantastic service by Bernadette who treated us like royalty and worked her socks off despite it being hectic at the time. Will definitely be coming back to an expected brilliant service by Bernadette!

Lovely pub with equally lovely staff steak and ale pie was incredible had a lovely waitress who took care of us was so attentive and easy to talk to even let me daughter wear her tiara she was an absolute star xx

Visited a few times and have often had problems with food being cold but thanks to kind staff problems are always resolved other than that is a great place😅

Visited for the first time on Saturday 6th of May with my parents - amazing experience all round! Chicken fajitas were fantastic, service was quick and efficient, wasn’t too busy or loud. Staff were all very kind and accommodating, especially our waitress Nicole who’s brightening...

Myself and 6 others visited yesterday for the Sunday roast. After reading the menu I was fully preparing myself for a lovely slap up Sunday roast - However, this wasn’t the case. After first waiting a considerable amount of time we had to actually ask...

Table of 7, restaurant not particularly busy for a Sunday lunchtime. Ordered starters, took a little while to come but not a problem all changed after this. Waited 50 mins for main meals, had to ask how much longer we needed to wait? when they...

Spent a lovely few hours here today, great value for money and kids loved the play area. I just wanted to compliment the absolutely lovely lady behind the bar in the light green top, she was so nice and easy to speak with, even my...

Lovely atmosphere. Friendly and relaxed. Superb real Ale! Really nice to have a pub where sport isn't blaring out at full volume! Highly recommended! Must have a meal sometime soon too as we've seen food coming out and looks amazing!

Food arrived promptly but was sub par. Ordered a rare mixed grill and a beyond meat burger. Chicken breast seemed microwaved and dry. Steak was medium as best. Sausages were of the cheap variety with no meaty texture and the skin was tough like they...

Had a meal here. I agree with some reviews that initial service (waiting at the desk for someone to take us to a table) was slow. Once we were seated Service was good. Both had chicken skewers. When plates arrived mine was hot and my...

Our table was booked for 6:30 we arrive at 6:05 Waited almost 10 mins for a waitress to come over to us to ask if we had booked to be asked to wait at the bar as our table wasn’t ready ,this wasn’t a problem...

Met some family members today for lunch and a catch up. The meal was enjoyed by all and the girl who served us was pleasant and accommodating. The only fault I could mention was having been shown to a rather cramped table I asked if...

I've been using this venue for years whilst travelling to see family. Usually a bog standard average pub meal. The prices have increased in past few weeks and their cooking equipment seems to break down quite often. Yesterday I chose the steak pie. (usually have...

We arrived at 1.30pm on Sunday 26th Feb -expecting to eat Sunday lunch together - we sat in the bar as we had 2 dogs with us . We did not book because 2 weeks ago we were told that we could not book tables...

Saturday afternoon and walked in to a bunch of headless chickens… chaos!!!! not one member of staff had a smile, and my initial feeling was that we wasn’t welcome! We sat down and Our waiter couldn’t apologise more about the lack of menu on the...

I visited the Goose for a drink with my wife. I had to clean my own table before I could sit down. The bar was covered in empty glasses and bottles as well as condiments. almost every table had empty glasses waiting to be cleared....

I visited with my partner for dinner and drinks on Friday evening. We were greeted at the host stand and promptly brought to our table. Our drinks were delivered very quickly and so was our food (which tasted amazing)! Our waitor, Luke, checked if everything...

Great friendly staff, beautiful food and beautiful pub to be in. Smashing day out especially if you want to tire the little ones out in the soft play too.

We visited the Goose on 23/01/23 and what an lovely evening we had. Great food and under the circumstances, great service. We were looked after very well even if things did take a little longer than usual, as there just seemed to be two staff...

I don't normally do reviews but I thought that I should. We visited the goose on the 15th of January, it was very busy when we arrived, the staff were lovely and very welcoming even though they looked rushed off their feet, Attended to us...

Food was tasteless and over priced with poor service. When my chicken Sunday dinner arrived I was told they had ran out so it was now turkey, which was fine but should of been mentioned beforehand... the mash and roast potatoes tasted bland and frozen...

Attended 15th January. A lovely pub with lovely food. However foul mouthed staff, one of which decided to take a personal phone call next to myself and my daughter where she was swearing and making threats, which my daughter recited to me. Another staff member...

We went to this pub for a family meal which was terrible I had a Christmas meal as did my daughter-in-law it came out of stone cold The vegetables were rock hard . My son had a beyond burger and chips his food was cold...

We have been regulars here since the pub was first built. There have been many managers over the years, some good, a couple excellent and some bad. But I have to say Kimberley is definitely excellent! Kimberley has brought an honest no nonsense management style...

The staff are nice and chatty, but the pub manager is a different story, bad attitude and unfriendly manner and i just did not feel welcome. I was even accused, in a nasty tone, of using my phone to change the tv channel. Her words...

Food was not up to standard. Had a mixed grill and chicken was cold and said tomato on the vine but looked like 2 cherry tomatoes and no vine!. The gammon was a quite thick bit and was RAW in the middle but got told...

I took my 94 year old Dad to lunch and was served by Cydney. She was quick to seat us in a quiet area, take our order and bring our food swiftly. Perfect. just what an elderly man needed as waiting is not on the...

We occasionally visit for lunch and are not disappointed with the level of service and food. Staff are efficient and the pub is not busy at this time of day.

Came to mainly bring the kids to the play area whilst we had some food but it was closed which was disappointing. The food was average at best. The chicken was dry, clearly pre frozen . The mash was powdered mash , the stuffing didn’t...

Rang to book a table of 12 (5 adults, 6 children) for the same day early evening and they refused as they cannot cater for that many, they wanted a week in advance. I questioned them on if a few tables came that amounted to...

Lovely pub and great choice of food but gets very busy and is quite expensive. Unfortunately they got 4 out of 5 meals wrong and food was warm not hot. I wouldn’t usually complain but on this occasion I had to as there was too...

It was my first visit here. We arrived for lunch and the way we were spoke to from the beginning was awful. The lady (named Beth) who served us was very rude. She was unprofessional, impolite and expressed her rudeness quite clearly with her facial...

Visted the Goose as a little school holiday treat with my 4 children my partner, Staff in both the main pub and the tacky. warehouse we welcoming and very helpful. Staff happily served our children meals at the same time as our starter to avoid...

Stood at bar 10 minutes without being acknowledged . Waited to be seated for food some time and only acknowledge when left. Understaffed and ignorant staff that were there

Just to say the food was very nice as always. The server was awful! When she came over to take our order she slouched-leaned on a chair at the adjacent table and appeared to find it an absolute chore to take our order. No smiles,...

Visited this restaurant with a group of friends for breakfast, the staff were incredibly rude and clearly didn’t want to serve us. Despite it being 11am they were annoyed about serving breakfast and supposedly multiple tables were reserved despite there being only one other customer...
