Really nice quiet hotel in good location Everything was nice and clean Staff were friendly and efficient and the breakfast was excellent Now for the not so good points Firstly my room was very cold and I didn’t sleep too well because of that and I couldn’t turn the heating on as the program was locked to off Secondly the bar closed at 19.30 just as I was going down for a drink So nice as it was I won’t be returning

My friends and I have been for lunch a few times over the last few months and have always received a reasonable lunch for a fair price. However, the last time I went I asked for the WIFI password so that I could check my work emails and was told that it was only made available for guests, presumably of the hotel part of the business rather than the restaurant. I mentioned, half joking and half serious, that this policy would drive away customers only to be told that they have enough customers. May I recommend that you review this policy as one day you may not have enough customers!

Me and my Husband took our two children, age 5 and 10 months for an early dinner at The Hogs Head. Our youngest child sat in a highchair provided. The meal itself was fine, our eldest child enjoyed his dinner and so did me and my Husband. However, what happened when we had the bill has not only shocked us as parents, but all our family and friends which we have since told this to. Our 10 month old son has mad some mess on the floor from eating his food. It wasnt horrendous, im always cautious to pick up the bits of food my BABY drops when feeding. But I was utterly shocked and quite speachless when the waitress came over to me and my Husband and said " would you like a dust pan and brush?" In reflection my response should have been different, but we said ok in a shocked and confused kind of manner. The dust pan and brush was handed to us and my Husband decided to sweep up the small amount of food from the floor. We have eaten out in MANY restaurants etc over the 5 year's we have been parent's and can honestly say this situation has not only put us off, plus everyone we are telling the story to. Do not take your children here, do not ever even eat here.

This is our first time visiting, we decided to book for a sunday carvery. 4 meat choices, including lamb. Yorkshire puddings, serve yourself with stuffing balls, roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, pea, carrots, french beans, cabbage, cauliflower cheese. Plenty of gravy. Aftera while of sitting eating our meal one of the waitresses came over with more gravy. Soon after we finished a member of staff came and took our plates away and asked if we would like any puddings. We had rhubarb crumble with custard and treacle sponge and custard, both really good portions and lovely. As we left we left a tip as we feel the meals were lovely and the staff are very welcoming and helpful. We will call again, maybe in the week to try their midweek meals.

We met friends here today for Sunday lunch. We all had the Carvery which was superb. The joint of beef was cut so large & thick it was so tasty. The meal is terrific value. The staff were so very helpful as we had a gentleman with a walking stick in our party. The whole ambience, lights ,decorations, made for a pleasant tasty Sunday lunch. The Carvery is a real recommend. Our only gripe can be eating at 2pm there were hardly any vegetables & they were barely like warm.

We dined today as a family meal. On arrival the member of staff took our temperatures who was polite. When ordering drinks from the bar the older member of staff abruptly ordered my family member he should be wearing a mask. (please consider sometimes that people have long term health conditions) The meal I ordered was the same size of my 6 year olds kids meal. (only £3 more) Anyway the food wasn't anything special. Not be returning anytime soon.

Volví a visitar Hogs Head después de haber sido rechazado hace semanas un domingo a las 2. 15 pm porque estaban muy ocupados. De hecho, me sentí tan complacido que he vuelto a visitar 3 veces desde entonces y se ha convertido en mi lugar ideal para comer algo. Los filetes son para morirse con chips caseros. Filetes muy magros y cocinados a la perfección. Tampoco es pequeño. El personal es muy amable y se desvive por ti. Ellos interactúan muy bien con los clientes. Un lugar bien presentado para comer y para discapacitados de fácil acceso y los baños están en la planta baja. Existe una política sobre el hecho de que los niños se portan bien y no se les permite correr. Muchas veces mis comidas se han arruinado en otros lugares debido al ruido y el estruendo de los niños que corren salvajes. La música aquí tampoco es demasiado alta. También puedo recomendar la cena de carne es muy tierna. En general, un buen lugar para visitar para una comida. Un bonito jardín para comer al aire libre cuando hace buen tiempo. Hay un cuestionario el miércoles por la noche y el domingo por la noche si desea hacerlo después de la comida del miércoles.

Visitamos el hotel Hogs Head después de viajar desde Leicester para ir a IKEA y Decathlon. Sunday Carvery es suficiente para que yo y mi familia nos ayuden a comer. No parecía muy ocupado desde el exterior: el personal estaba parado afuera fumando en uniforme de trabajo, sin embargo, cuando entramos, el servicio que recibimos fue impactante. Nuestro camarero era encantador, pero ahí es donde se detuvo. Podía simplemente escuchar cómo el personal se gritaba, el chico del asador olía a tabaco tan mal que pensé que estaba fumando junto a él y cuando le pregunté si salían más verduras, respondió bruscamente con "no un amigo". Se rió con uno de los chefs y se fue. Nuestro camarero era encantador, como se dijo anteriormente, fue una pena que este establecimiento no tenga 10 más de ella, ya que nuestra experiencia hubiera sido 5/5 si ese fuera el caso. ¿Volvería? Solo si el personal tenía un servicio de atención al cliente y una higiene decentes, no apestaran con cigarrillos.

Qué decepcionante fue la visita a Hogs Head hoy, llegamos justo antes de las 2:30 para que nos dijeran que no nos iban a servir de manera contundente, la gente seguía haciendo cola y la comida era abundante. ¡Realmente no entiendo por qué en los negocios eres así tan temprano en el día! The Hogs Head claramente no emplea una gran satisfacción del cliente, ya que no es la primera vez que el personal se niega a servir comidas y postres.

For a start, this is not a restaurant, it's a pub that serves food. And that's fine because we went to it as a pub. We belong to a scooter club that normally has a Wednesday night outing to meet up with other scooter clubs and each club takes turns to host at their local. But this Wednesday our usual arrangements had to be postponed so we were looking for a nice pub to head to, somewhere with a good outside area, as we always sit outside so that we can keep an eye on our scoots. The Hogs Head was mentioned and that's where we headed. So about 25 scoots arrive there (with another club heading out to meet up with us) and the first few of us had parked up and were heading to the bar when the Landlord came running out of his caravan (which I believe he lives in) shouting that he didn't want "The likes of us" in his pub and that we had to leave. I was in the first group that was already in the bar when he came in shouting that we had to go. Yes, he was shouting at us. And one of the things he was shouting was that he didn't want his clientele bothered by us. (It did cross my mind he was the one causing the 'upset' here). His clientele numbered about ten people scattered around the pub, as far as I could see, a couple of them eating and a few just drinking. He told us we could finish our drinks quickly and get out. My point here is that we were in a perfectly ordinary pub, we hadn't walked into some upmarket restaurant and 'lowered the tone' which was what he was inferring. We wandered out, somewhat bemused by all this to be joined by the rest of our club, the ones that he had originally been screaming at to leave in the car park and he'd told them he wouldn't be serving them. At which point we went back inside and asked for our money back, which the long suffering barmaid gave us inferring that she'd seen this behaviour before). If we're spending money, then we'll drink our drinks with all of our friends, at the speed at which we enjoy and not dictated by the landlord thank you. I was one of the last to actually leave as I was trying to leave a message for the other scooter group telling them where we were heading. He did try and speak to me about it, telling me he had to protect his customers. That he didn't allow big groups of football fans in either. (Like that ever happens, it's at least 10 miles away from Forest, Notts or Derby). I'd like to point out that we are a group that usually enjoys really positive encounters with strangers in pubs, many of whom ask if they can photograph and even sit on some of our scooters, share their own two wheel stories and often video us leaving together. It just so happens that my husband's family regularly book large tables there to celebrate family events and I'll definitely be trying to persuade them elsewhere now, I wouldn't put a round coin in his till after the way he spoke to us last night. I'm really, really struggling to think of a time when I've ever been treated this badly in a pub and if it was a managed house I'd be contacting the owners and taking this further, but unfortunately it's a independent.

They took a booking of 35 people yet failed to mention to anyone that the bar shut half an hour after our arrival. We pretty much had time for one drink and to wolf our carvery down as they were pressuring us to leave the premises. When speaking to the manager he shrugs his shoulders as though they've done nothing wrong. He's just seen the custom 35 people would bring in and accepted to cater for them but as soon as we had paid and sat down he wanted us gone. The staff even brought out vacuum cleaners whilst us and others were still eating!! Disgusting service and definitely would not recommend this venue for anything.

We stopped at Hogs Head for a coulpe of nights. The rooms were clean and tidy, had all the usual accutrements you would expect from a hotel. Tea, Coffee, Kettle TV Hair dryers etc. The staff were friendly and the rooms were reasonably priced. The meals were served in the main bar area alothough breakfast was served in the dining room. All their evening meal choices are made from "the menu board". It had a good variety and what you would expect, "pub" pricing. The Hogs Head Hotel is a double edged sword really. It is just off the motorway and near to a large retail park, but it's location and how the owners have landscaped the hotel means it almost quiet and very private. So you get a good night's sleep. The other side is getting to the hotel is not the easiest of access. Once you've done it once, it's a doddle. It's the doing it once.We would stay there again with no problem.

This restaurant is close to Ikea off the A610 but is a little hard to find in what is now a dead end having been dissected by the A610. Overall it was worth the search and our meals were good value for money. The wait to say we had arrived and to order drinks was quite long and the staff seemed disorganised although they apologised for the wait saying it was a busy time. The lady that served us was very friendly and our food order was taken quickly. The surprise was that although much is made of the fact that the food is prepared to order it came much quicker than expected or that seemed possible. Out of two lots of chips one seemed to have been standing much longer than the other portion and the lamb pie, while having very tender and tasty filling, had a pie crust that was a close comparison to cardboard. The other meal, Lasagne and salad was judged excellent. I have still rated it very good for the surroundings, value for money and friendly service.

Very quaint inside this restaurant. We were told that we would have a half hour wait before we ordered our meal. We got our drinks, ordered the meal and it was half an hour before it came. The menu is varied ranging from gammon and eggs to steaks, roast dinners, curries, fish and chips..home made chips. The roast beef was delicious, fresh vegetables, home made Yorkshire, it was piping hot. The rest of my little group had gammon, fish cake, 12oz rump steak all with chips. A side order of onion rings came..proper home made! The total cost of the meal was £31. Very good value.

This place reminds me of being a kid and going for Sunday lunch with my grandparents. Unfortunately it's gone down hill a lot as the years have passed. The food was average. My daughters Sunday roast was terrible. Beef with fat all round the edge. Dried Yorkshires and crispy stuffing which even the gravy didn't rectify. Wouldn't return or recommend in a hurry. This pepper pot looks like it's never been cleaned out since it first opened. The park is non existent too. Could be great for kids in summer!

But the decor is almost exactly the same as it was in the 80s when we used to go as kids, although seems to be much less child friendly. There are at least 3 signs informing that kids are the parents responsibility and expected to behave. As I looked round the place I seemed to see more. One at the door, one on the menu, one at the till, one at the serving hatch. Felt a bit oppressive. I'm guessing that they must have had problems in the past, and other than the notes, we didn't feel unwelcome.Decent pint of Black Sheep.

Just got back from a pleasant family lunch, staff were very friendly and the food of a " home comforts" variety, my eldest daughter & I both had Turkey roasts hers being normal and mine a smaller one, but to be honest when they arrived they both looked very much the same. My younger daughter had a 6oz steak she asked to be cooked medium but I would say it came well done, she had a choice of salad or peas with chips she opted for the salad and there was plenty of it.

I have been to the Hogs Head a few times and have always been impressed by the quality of food and service at a very reasonable price. If I had to pick fault with it, the dining tables are a bit too close together for for my liking. However, there is a larger function room adjacent to the dining room and whether that gets opened up in busier times is not known. But well wort a visit and I'll definitely go again.

Having visited the Hogs Head on Sunday i was overall impressed with the quite impressed with the food. The only negative i would have is that we were made to wait until all of our party had purchased thier cavery tokens beforw we were seated. This meant that my elderly grandmother had to stand until a couple of family members who were running late had arrived. I just think that it would not have been a problem for ourselves to be seated at our reserved table. But overall very pleased with the warm friendly manner of the staff.

De Hogs Head is een prima hotel niet teveel luxe maar prima sfeer. Je kan er lekker genieten van de Engelse keuken en daarna wat drinken in het pub gedeelte. Het ligt rustig iets uit de bebouwde kom maar wij vinden dit geen probleem want na een dagje Nottingham, Sherwood forrest of Wollaton park hoef je de deur niet meer uit Wij komen hier regelmatig terug en genieten iedere keer weer

Very good menu plenty to choose from. Can't fault the food. Little bit out of the way but worth a try for anyone. The Sunday carvery second to none.

Just visited the Hogs Head for Sunday lunch. The Carvery way everything you could want from a Carvery. Good sized portions of meat and as much vegetables as you could fit on your plate. The staff are very friendly and on the ball. Just wish we had left enough room for pudding. Maybe next time ;-)

Met up with friends on a cold February lunch time and chose to visit this establishment as we had not been for many a year. The menu was extensive and varied with either large or small portions being available. The food was basic pub grub but well cooked and tasty. Two of us selected the home made steak and mushroom pie which was served with a choice of chips/potatoes and vegetables. We were also brought an extra jug of lovely thick gravy to share. Our other friend had the small roast turkey dinner which was a fair sized portion too. puddings were proper old fashioned puds and the portions were enormous. The home made apple crumble and custard was devine.

This is a really great restaurant that excels with pies in particular but have never been disappointed with their Sunday carvery

Wonderful pub we visit time and time again for carvery. Booking is an absolute necessity otherwise you won't get in as its so popular. The food is out of this world and plenty to choose from on the carvery. Four different types of meat are served and the choice of vegetables is huge compared to other places we have visited. Only complaint is the plates aren't big enough! My only criticism of the hogs head is the seating area just to have a drink. It's not very pushchair or wheelchair friendly. We had our baby in a pushchair and were unable to sit with our family as there were lots of little stools with people already sat there so we ended up stood blocking the walkway from the door to the bar.

we have had a busy weekend and didnt have any food in so we decided to go to the very good thai in eastwood but because it was closed we ended up at the farmhouse. i wish we had just gone home. my sons are 13 and 15 and although we often eat out its years since they have been to an indian. im really sad that they are saying that they never want to eat indian food again. they had a chicken korma and a chicken tikka masala and i have to say that after trying it i dont know how they stomached it. there were no other diners in and not once did the waiter ask if our food was alright otherwise i would have told him that 2 of the dishes were inedible instead we just paid the bill and wont be going back.

I honestly haven't had a better customer experience. Mat greeted me on arrival and was so polite & friendly that my kids asked if he was a friend of mine. I was shown to our table after being given a quick tour of the facilities and advised to ask if I needed any assistance. ( I did ask for poached eggs & vegetarian sausages) The food was tasty and hot / fresh. Molly & Michelle both went above & beyond to ensure the whole family's experience was a fantastic & memorable one for all the right reasons. I will be back and now won't go anywhere else. Amazing service & comfortable place. Thank you

I had won a Facebook competition that they run most weeks (just follow their Facebook page) winning 2 Breakfasts so we ended up taking the kids on Sunday morning the pub was understandably quiet due to current circumstances. The food was excellent and I even struggled with the large breakfast and the staff were very friendly and attentive especially Jam.
