Griffin Plumtree in Rushcliffe

Visité este restaurante para el domingo Almuerzo con la familia y OMG increíble servicio excelente, pero el asado estaba fuera de este mundo 👍 recomiendo a cualquiera que desee un buen lugar y buena comida

A last minute Sunday lunch booking. The restaurant is beautiful (used to visit 30 years ago & has changed dramatically!) Good menu choice. Food was tasty, plentiful & the service was excellent. A great find & we will be back very soon. Thank you!

Comida absolutamente deliciosa. Fueron un grupo de 6 y a todos les encantó su comida. Sin duda recomendaría. El servicio fue excelente también.

Encantador almuerzo en el bar hoy, tomando un descanso durante un paseo por el campo circundante. El personal era muy servicial con menús que cumplen con nuestros requisitos dietéticos. Bonito ambiente, volveremos a visitar, lo recomendamos, gracias.

Un poco decepcionado... el menú prometía grandes cosas con un precio a juego. Sin embargo, el pastel de carne y setas estaba muy seco, la verdura de temporada necesitaba al menos una perilla de mantequilla. Buen servicio, habitación encantadora, pero sobreprecio para la calidad promedio de la comida.

Fue a almorzar 22 / 12 / 24 , el conservatorio se veía y olía hermoso. Nuestros amigos llegaron tarde, pero no fue un problema. El menú no era Chrismassy en absoluto, bien hecho. Toda la comida se presentó bien, buen tamaño de porción y caliente, esto incluyó los platos. Muy pocos restaurantes lo logran, especialmente en esta época del año. El personal del Griffin era todo amable y profesional. Un crédito para ti, de nuevo no es un hecho cuando un lugar está ocupado en Navidad. Esperamos volver.

Estaba decepcionado con mi elección de titular. Seis pequeñas tiras de salmón curado y algo en la parte superior. Una pequeña rebanada de pan de centeno con un cubo de mantequilla. Control de porciones a £ 12. Otros titulares se veían bien pero muy mínimos. La sopa vino con una rebanada de pan de masa madre de nuevo con un pequeño cubo de mantequilla. Lo principal eran sentimientos encontrados. El cerdo del vientre estaba seco. El pastel tenía mucho pastel y no mucho relleno. La hoja de estaca se comprimió para parecer un tornado de estaca, que se veía encantador, pero por £ 25 debería servir. Para un pub es un poco caro y un poco malo. No es buena comida o pub gastronómico, pero tratando de estar en el medio tal vez.

Visitó dos veces en una semana... 2 ocasiones especiales. La comida era increíble en ambas ocasiones, con un excelente servicio y un personal amable. Sentado en el comedor la primera vez con amigos. Tenía la lubina cocinada a la perfección, mis amigos tenían el pastel que se veía tan bien que volví allí hoy con mi marido para probarlo. Esta es una de las mejores comidas que hemos tenido durante un tiempo. ¡Todo perfecto! Gracias, volveremos.

Food was incredible , each and every ingredient packed taste !! We had the beef crumpet and mushroom pate starter and every mouthful was beautiful Mains / pud were incredible and it was such a lovely pub / setting and great service

I bought my dad here for lunch day. The venue is beautiful. The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were lovely and friendly and the service was great. We will definitely be back. I would highly recommend the Griffin for any occasion 💗

Classy restaurant, the best we've been to! Superb Sunday lunch, perfect in every detail. Excellent service. We'll be back!

A surprisingly good Sunday lunch. Great flavours and well presented food, never over busy as they don’t overbook to keep the kitchen able to cope. You will need to book and the phones are not answered before midday.

This is our ‘go to’ place for family meals, we eat here about once a month. There is a wide choice of menu and the food is very good. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff who have accommodated our requests to bring out our celebration cakes on several occasions and they have been very helpful and friendly.

Nice atmosphere, good service, good menu. Sunday lunch good if a little pricey. Lovely outdoor space. Not very family friendly.

Lovely ambience both inside and out. Friendly staff and great lunch choice. Opted for duck breast with parsnip/ puree and short rib, followed by brown sugar tart with rhubarb compote. Dietary options discussed and met. Can definitely recommend.

Nice enough food and good service. Watch the prices on some items, like bread costing the same as a prawn starter and the wines are expensive. Biggest problem is the noise. No soft furnishings in the restaurant so, when full, the sound rattles around and you have to shout at each other to be heard.

I arranged a meal for my mums 70th at the Plumtree Griffin for 8 adults l, 4 kids with 2 dogs. We were booked in. All good so far. Unfortunately, we received a call 2 days later to say we were unable to use the table that was chosen for us as this was situated in a room which only allowed for 10 seated. This was for health and safety reasons. We were then told we could be moved into the restaurant instead but would be unable to bring the dogs as they are not allowed in the restaurant. Unfortunately, this was not possible as we had chosen this venue as it was on our route home, and we were not willing to leave the dogs in a potentially hot car. I understand mistakes are made, but the service after leaves much to be desired.

Both service and food are exceptional! There really nothing more to add, other than the cost is more than acceptable! If you live within 25 miles of this restaurant you would be foolish not to visit and be satisfied you made a worthwhile journey!

We’d heard some really good comments from others we know who have eaten at The Griffin so decided to give it a try. So glad we did as everything about the place was first class. The food was delicious, the service really friendly and the ambiance was really good. It wasn’t overpriced either. Looking forward to eating there again in the near future.

We called in @18.00 yesterday after a very frantic day and an unexpected trip to Nottingham. Very welcoming and seated us in the Restaurant immediately. Menu was extensive and the Set Menu very good as well. All our needs were dealt with promptly, food was excellent, plates were warm! All in all a very good experience. Very near the main road, but quieter. We will be back.

Masterchef food without the exhorbitant prices that go with it. Service faultless and portions of a size that leaves room for three courses. This isn't a pub, its a restaurant with a bar. There's a difference. Don't come here if you want plates piled high with overcooked meat and soggy veg. Go to a chain pub! Will be back!

Just about the best Sunday lunch we have ever had at any restaurant in this country, quite superb. The roast belly pork and the slow roast rump of lamb were both very tender and tasty. Great roasties and, in response to an earlier review, the gravy tasted like it was made in the pan and not out of a jar. Plenty of it too. Excellent starters and a brownie with cherry ice cream to finish was delicious. A nice Chilean merlot was reasonably priced and the service was faultless. Well done The Griffin.

It was ok. Lack of children’s menu which was very strange. Some food excellent, but some dry and overcooked. Service was very good though and the dining room area a lovely space. All in all just “ok”.

A fabulous evening in a lovely venue, friendly courteous staff and delicious food. My friend’s 80th birthday celebration was made memorable by the experience! Special thanks to Millie and Finn who looked after us so well

We came for Sunday lunch after eating here before on a Saturday lunchtime which we loved. We both had the roast sirloin of beef, which was delicious, very tender and pink - just how we like it. The cauliflower cheese was delicious even if a tad hard ( a few more mins cooking needed as it was almost raw) the other veg was also delicious. The only real downside for us was the gravy. It was a red colour as if it had tomatoes in it and had quite a tang to it. What happened to good old brown gravy? That was the only letdown for us.. The staff were lovely and very courteous.

Superb early evening meal. Sent our compliments to the chef. Rare these days to find such really great tasting food in every course - highly recommend

We were a party of 8 for lunch and had our own private room. There are a wide range of seating options otherwise. Service from the 4 staff we dealt with could not have been more courteous. The food was excellent and well above pub quality as was the beer. Shipstone's to die for. Previous reviewer clearly has a chip on their shoulder, as if I correctly identify the individual referred to he could not have been more helpful and courteous. Very highly recommend.

Although the food was nice it took far too long too arrive. Bar manager (bold ginger bloke) has the personality of a wet fish. Waitress looked like she’s just left prisoner Cell Block H. Overall an unpleasant atmosphere for a quiet country pub. Very disappointing.

A fantastic find, off the beaten track. Someone has put a lot of care and thought into refurbishing this quintessential English pub, and has had the nouse to equip it with the staff and grace befitting a slot on your "places worthy of visiting regularly" list. Quality foods, and good rotation of menus reflects the calibre of a good chef, accompanied with excellent service with genuine care, grateful for your patronage.

Fabulous Sunday lunch , great quality produce, generous portions, super helpful staff .. Will definitely be returning , thank you everyone..

I took my family for a post Christmas dinner on the 29th December. We were six adults and three children. The children menu had good choices, the adults too. We had two courses each, the starters were small but beautifully presented and tasted great, my son had the baked celeriac with Jerusalem artichokes purée, my daughter had the pork belly with scallops and my son in law the mushroom risotto, all were impressed with their choices. For mains we had , Hake with mussels and bouillabaisse sauce, Braised beef cheeks, Chicken and bacon pie and vegan mushroom and chestnut Wellingtons, all beautiful presented and cooked to perfection. Desserts did not disappoint either, Christmas sticky toffee pudding, passion fruit crémeux and ice cream for the children. Drinks were expensive but good. The service was friendly and they made sure the children got their food at the same time as the adults starters, Not a cheap meal out but we all enjoyed our food and experience.

Booked in for Sunday lunch, bar and waiting staff were amazing and really friendly. Tasteful decor and loads of sofas to get comfy on for pre-dinner drinks. Food was fantastic which was exactly what we needed when the weather was so awful! Would definitely recommend a visit x

We received a warm welcome on arrival. The lunch menu choice was very inviting. When the food arrived it was very well presented enough to get your taste buds crying out for the very tasteful flavours. The presentation also entices your senses. My friend and I look forward to our planned returns. I would like to thank all the team for the combined efforts.

What a lovely place! Welcoming open fire in the bar area and a beautiful restaurant area at the back. Really nice, friendly staff. The food is absolutely stunning....and the portions are very, very generous. Overall an excellent lunch.

Bar staff in friendly often! Food good but over priced for portions. Staying the above it is a nice place to be.

Singularly unimpressed! Definitely NOT worth the price. Our Sunday lunch worked out at over £40 each and frankly we have had much better for under £25 in many local eateries. Our starters were definitely on the skimpy side. The lamb was over cooked and served with a sauce!gravy which was quite acidic. The roast veg and Yorkshire pudding were well cooked but the other veg was a mush mash and quire ordinary. The desserts were adequate but like the drinks over priced.

Absolutely delicious off the cuff dinner.. starters of soup & baked celeriac were so light & flavoursome. Mains of Beef Cheek & Hake were to die for. It’s a must!!

From the moment you walk in to the bar, it is cosy,comfortable , so welcoming. Beautiful setting in the bar area , the dining room bright and family friendly. All staff were very pleasant, well presented and with a genuine friendly smile. The ford was certainly not a disappointment. Prawn salad was just that, very good size. The Pate was excellent. The Pies with potatoes, veg and nice gravy. Everything perfect for our 47th wedding anniversary celebration. To finish the night with hot Latte in comfortable seating area in the bar with a roaring fire. Perfect in every way. We will certainly return again.

Lovely setting (main dining area is noisy but added to the atmosphere) we went for Sunday lunch and it was delicious! My son is coeliac and they also catered well for his needs (we did take our own yorkshires) but they were very accommodating! Would definitely recommend the roast dinners and will be going back!

We booked for lunch on a very hot day and sat inside although there was a lovely terrace with umbrellas too. Although we are local, we hadn't visited before. The place had been very tastefully renovated. The menu wasn't your usual pub grub and so the prices of the food reflected this. The menu was on the internet so I had seen it before booking. My cod dish was very unusual and my husbands risotto even had a courgette with a stuffed flower. It's so very nice to have something different. Our only gripe was the intrusive music which wasn't background music and too thumpy for a restaurant that wasn't full enough of people to cover the beats. They were unable to reduce the volume when asked. Our favourite restaurant is only just up the road from The Griffin but we will probably be back to try something else when they've changed the menu.

Fabulous Sunday lunch, little pricey with food and drinks combined, but well worth it for the quality of the food and attentiveness of the staff and the surroundings. Great that there was gluten free gravy still hard pressed to find an establishment that has gluten free yorkshire puds an essential with roast beef.

Great food and service. Lovely to see local produce was being used # Harkers farm.Nice varied menu. Sticky toffee pudding was amazing!!!

Wow... My first visit here and will certainly will not be my last especially as we are only a 20 minute walk away. We booked in for Sunday lunch and the whole experience was a wonderful one, from the moment we walked through the door. We were welcomed by a lovely young man behind the bar who asked how our day was going. I had the Roast Pork Belly which just melts in your mouth and my partner had the vegetarian option and she absolutely loved it. The staff are a real asset and I can honestly say I can't wait for our next visit.

Three of us visited mid-week without a reservation for a birthday lunch. The dining room is fabulous - plenty of well spaced tables and great furnishings. Lovely friendly staff and a regularly changing menu. Some standard dishes and a few more unusual options. Several vegetarian choices. The quality and presentation of the food is excellent. The desserts in particular were superb - I highly recommend the chocolate bar! A really enjoyable visit. Highly recommended.
