Grey Horses Inn in Bassetlaw

The service isn’t really good we stood for 20 minutes before people and they got served before us even though we were there first. Other than that the food sounds great !!

I booked online for table of 3 for Sunday lunch. Apparently the online booking wasn't working but allowed us a table. It took an hour for the food to show up. There was no heating on and we sat in our coats. There was no crackling with the pork. Even though it was advertised as that. The small amount of mash potatoes on the plate tasted funny. The 2 roast pots were hard and dry. Gravy like water. The waitress was complaining that the new management didn’t know what they were doing and it showed. We thought we would give this place a go. As was under new management but really wished we hadn’t bothered. There were regulars eating who had been coming for years but said they would never come again. I reluctantly paid but I mentioned my concerns to the waitress who said she would ask the chef to come out. He didn’t!! Sorry but it’s the first and last time we will set foot in this place.

Would have liked the quiz to be same as before. And the bingo. Maybe next week, when the manager is in. 🤞

Very nice staff great service great food 👍

Been busy, so called in on the off chance of a meal. Not a problem! They do a spicy cajun chicken Baguette with chips salad and coleslaw. Quite big so they asked if I would like half a Baguette, sorted! Even had room from for lemon and marscapone cheesecake. Lovely meal, really enjoyed it.

They do the best food. The homemade pie with proper chunky chips are the best. We come every month for a meal. Lovely friendly staff and cracking service. Highly recommended

Always a great Sunday lunch here!! Definitely recommend

Fabulous food. Good choice of beers, The food here is amazing, it's not fancy, it's not micro portions that cost a fortune. It's good quality, stacked high, pub food.

The pub smelt fusty. Food was not very nice. My vegetarian burger was all packed with sloppy food and the plate was very overwhelming packed with food so could not eat it.

They catered for 18 of us for my mums 85th birthday nothing was too much trouble and the food and staff were lovely we all enjoyed it

Visited the Grey Horses for lunch after a tractor driving experience in Blyth. We absolutely loved it, a proper pub. Loved the variety of beers esp the Welbeck. Everyone was super friendly & helpful & the Sunday lunch was delicious 🤤 Thank you.

Great food, service & atmosphere

Very disappointing.Been plenty of times and always commented to staff how nice it was (especially the pies ) but I’m afraid it’s going down hill. Booked in for Sunday lunch 11/02/2024 for 3pm.6 tables reserved so was told to sit behind pillar.3of us.I asked if we could move to a table for 4 has partner as problem with his legs .No they are reserved.Right , ordered our food .Salmon with dill sauce.Dearest on menu.small portion Roast dinner and steak and ale pie.Food was served 20 minutes later.The Salmon was unacceptable .It was 2 inches wide by 6 inches long. My daughter (25yrs) is not a big eater but come if it the fork with handle was bigger than it. Also about a teaspoon of dill sauce.My roast potato was burnt and the stuffing was has hard as nails. There was about a teaspoon of gravy over my dinner.My partners roast potatoes were burnt and the pie just wasn’t hot enough. We asked for more gravy ,Dill sauce and said about the salmon .40 minutes had passed and the other tables were free so we could have moved. What was also annoying was that a lady across ordered Salmon 30 minutes after us and wow it was 4 times bigger. So why serve a portion like that to my daughter it was just a plate of veg.To be honest we couldn’t wait to leave ,something wasn’t right. No smiles from the staff and the tables started filling up with regulars.Upon paying I had to mention (3 more times) the Salmon and the girl was rather abrupt.Far enough she did take the salmon off the bill but we have decided to spend our money somewhere else as most of all we didn’t feel welcome

Monday night quiz...not a spare seat to be found! Still great service from the staff though

Birthday party for 33 people. Food excellent. Friendly staff nothing too much trouble service excellent. Definitely recommend this place to eat.

Nice home made traditional pub grub. Have different beers etc. On tap. Always love coming here for food when back in the UK visiting family.

Great true village pub. Not flashy, but service, beers, food and welcoming atmosphere mean you are likely to return. Full of good people as well.

Absolutely beautiful a hidden gem 😋🤫 Called off again and was not disappointed absolutely beautiful again 😋

I had the steak pie and all three real ales that were on offer, no complaints here. In particular the pie was really good! Would visit again.

Lovely staff and great home cooked food.

Fantastic,superb food. Great service. Good atmosphere. Thank you

Comida y servicio excelentes y precios normales.

Well kept beers, prices ok, clean & tidy.

Essen gut, Atmosphäre cool, Schöner Abend

Had fish and chips very nice staff friendly certainly will revisit

What a wonderful find The staff were so friendly, the food was delicious, couldn’t fault it My husband loved the real ale We will definitely be back

Great beers (3 or 4 real ale choices) mostly by Wellbeck Abbey, and excellent food. Friendly to visitors, and gets surprisingly busy in the tap room on weekday afternoons. Very large lounge if you want it quiet. Visited again in March 2023, everything above still true.

Disappointed. Meal not very warm and very small portions even after being told small portions were quite generous. This to our minds made meals very over priced!!!

Great pub with home cooked delicious Sunday dinner. Everyone is lovely and attentive. We always go there for family gathering.

Excellent food and a good range of beer 🍻 Excellent menu with something for everyone.

We find grey horses meals very good visit again

Visited my friend in Carlton and had a lovely meal here. Big portions for me but nicely presented and hot

Night out with the girls, great food and good prices

Excellent Sunday lunch good food plenty of it pleasant staff

Went for meal with my partner and our little dog , sat in Tap room , staff were very helpful and friendly I ordered the steak and ale pie chips and peas it was absolutely delicious the steak was so tender , afters I had a lemon lemon tart with cream delicious My partner ordered rump steak chips ,mushrooms. tomatoes and onion rings which was beautifully cooked and excellent quality 👌 If you want a tasty meal and home cooked food and sweets look no further than the Grey Horses Inn And of course value for money wand friendly staff

Still fantastic food and beer. Give it a go you'll not be disappointed..

Had a really nice meal here today with my brother and his wife who had been here before. The meal was freshly cooked and reasonably priced. The young man who served us was very obliging and nothing was too much trouble. I will definitely visit again and I would recommend it to others.

Visited for a Christmas Dinner. It was warm, comfortable and welcoming. The food was excellent and plentiful. The staff were lovely and attentive. A lovely experience.

The pub is nice but small. It has a nice beer garden. The beer is really good. So are the staff. Food is ok. But i like my chicken soft. This is one of the best Sunday dinner. You can not get a better beef dinner.

Wonderful! Original real pub serving fantastic food and really good beer. That's obviously well looked after. Any pub serving Theakstons Peculiar on draught will always get my vote and the staff are amazing. Always so happy and obliging highly recommended

Really lovely friendly place. The food is delicious and very good value for money. Ash the bartender and waiter was super ensuring we had everything we needed. We will be dining here again for sure. - Prices have increased a fair bit but still a nice treat

Local village inn with real ales and good food.

Lovely meal. Great place and lovely staff

Fantastic food attentive staff good value for money. Would recommend

Very friendly pub. They allowed me to bring my dog to a wake even though in that particular room dogs aren't allowed. I couldn't have a drink because I was driving but I could see they had a good range of beers on offer.

Pie's to die for. Friendly staff. How pubs used to be.

Great food, lovely garden and attentive friendly staff.

The garlic mushrooms are amazing, and the small dinner was fantastic too. And taking the dogs out for lunch is the best of all. Whether it's in the bar or outside in the beer garden. Will be going back again very soon. One thing they could do is a water bowl for dogs and maybe a menu for dogs? Take a look at the Rose Cottage they provide a menu albeit small for doggies which would bring in another revenue stream for the business

Amazing food and service thank you

Excellent and friendly staff, very nice relaxed atmosphere. The food is amazing will definitely be visiting again

Great service and food thank you very much !

Very good home produced food my favourite is steak and Stilton pie or indeed any of the steak pie variants. Range of great beers , changed regularly My recent favourites have been Wainwright's and Welbeck brewery Burning Firedog , better than Murphys

Just the best pint, food looks great, going back to try that next time 👍

Staff very pleasant and chatty,we ordered food from the simple pub menu but when it arrived it was anything but simple. Puddings were very tasty,jam sponge with the best custard I've eaten in a while just topped it off perfectly.

Great food and very quiet at lunch time.

Great village pub at the heart of the community Good food and well kept beer

Excellent pub for a traditional and delicious pub lunch. Great vegetarian and vegan options available. Very generous portions and a great selection of local beers.

Finally a pub that serves more than just pale ales! Lovely traditional pub with beer garden. Worth a visit for the beer.

Good food ,good service and pleasant surroundings ideal for a break from cooking Sunday lunch just as good as ever

Good beer good food well manered staff enjoyed

Always a friendly and welcoming village pub.

Very friendly service and food was superb and very reasonably priced.

Visited early on a Friday evening with friends. Pleasantly atmosphere with lots of laughter. Covid safety measures in place. Food excellent as always. Another great meal at The Grey Horses.

Great food good choice of beers and friendly atmosphere

lovely food and nice atmosphere !

Great pub and beers. Excellent outdoor area.

It feels different in many pubs due to Covid restrictions but this one has managed to make you feel safe and welcome at the same time which is very important to me. Plenty of informative signs everywhere and sanitising stations, tables are well distanced, room to move round without passing too close to people and easy to use facilities one in one out.The food is excellent, always great quality and they are very accommodating to customer needs so if you want or need something specific just ask. The menu hasn't decreased like in many pubs which is a real bonus because there's plenty of choice. My favourites are cajun chicken salad (nice and fresh ingredients) or ham chips n egg, not to mention the chicken in stilton and mushroom sauce which is out of this world! Good choice of drinks, plenty of different gins or real ales whatever your tipple. The staff are always very friendly and polite, nothing is too much trouble and they're a credit to the pub with their smiling faces!Good to see local traditional pubs like this one surviving despite these challenging times, I intend to continue supporting them and others alike, while ever they keep providing first class food and service.

Absolutely lovely pub food. Pie tasty meat tender. The ham and eggs hit the spot and they didn't scrimp on the ham.

The staff were very friendly attentive and helpful. The food was delicious. Great place to eat.

Food is tasty and good value, The pub is a little reserved for a village bar but still worth the visit with ample on road parking and a sunny side beer garden.

Had an excellent meal, had the beef dinner it was really good the beef was melt in your mouth, staff as always really friendly and accomadating, we had booked in and did not feel crowded, tables placed well apart and everywhere was clean, recommend this lovely village pub, everything I ate was delicious and you could tell had been freshly cooked with food quality ingredients.Thank you for great food and excellent customer serviceGood job to all the staff and owners will be back

Lovely food at great prices and staff always really helpful

Locals once again paying no attention to local distancing moving furniture too close to other parties of people congregating at the bar and staff not wearing masks when serving food

Had a fantastic meal for 4 people. The service was excellent. Order taken and all 4 meals on the table within 20 minutes. Amazing food and great value for the money.

Food and staff outstanding... Proper pub food, made to order.. Worth every penny...
