We went for my husbands birthday with our family and 14 month old granddaughter We ordered starters and a main my daughter asked for food to be warmed fir the little one and was told they couldn’t do to health and safety which was understandable and were offered a portion of mashed potatoes When we had finished our mains my daughter noticed the meals we had had carrots and parsnips we pointed this out to the waitress who apologised and offered us a free desert When we received the bill we had been charged for the desserts the bill was amended we told the waitress and she said we were to receive both deserts for free The bill was amended again and when we received it we had been charged 7 50 for a child’s meal which we hadn’t had the bill was amended and we received another bill this time we had been charged for a 20 pound bottle of wine which we hadn’t had The waitress apologised for the errors with our bill saying they had been busy and had new staff The food was fab BUT PLEASE CHECK THAT YOU GET THE FOOD ON YOUR PLATE THAT YOU HAVE PAID FOR AND THAT YOU ARENT BEING CHARGED FOR WINE YOU DIDNT HAVE THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE SPOILT A PLEASANT AFTERNOON AND TO BE OFFERED 2 DESSERTS AS COMPENSATION IS POOR LAUNAYS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU PUT EXPERIENCED STAFF ON TO ISSUE THE BILLS

This was our first time at Launay’s and we will be visiting again very soon based on our Sunday Lunch visit. The food is delicious and we had the 3-course Sunday menu. Starters, Mains, Pudding, were all exceptional. If anyone from the restaurant reads this, please do let all your staff know that we were very impressed with the food and the service. This was on Remembrance Sunday. Even the background music that day made this a very special experience. Customer service at Launay’s is exceptional; we were proactively advised of a slight delay to our main meal and the waiting staff could not have done more for us. This is a real gem of a restaurant and has immediately become our favourite restaurant in Nottinghamshire. Thank you for making a Sunday Lunch visit very special indeed.

Wow. 🤩 This is a gorgeous, warm restaurant, with ample portions of food at an extremely reasonable and affordable price. Top Chef too. The Manager was a “little” upset it was 1.50 we arrived and reminded us so , which I accept we didn’t book and it was a Friday (today) so maybe they have a let’s not take bookings 10 minutes before the kitchen closes, unless booked. Do not let that put you off. The Manager who took over when he left and ladies serving were absolutely amazing. Food is 💯 Drinks menu 💯 Service (excluding the mardy 1st manager ) 💯 Location 💯 Free Parking 💯 Ambience 💯 Friendly 💯 Loved it. We also had an amazing Business Meeting with Lee @MiniMarquees

We visited for Sunday Lunch today. You advertise as ‘Fine Dining’ and charge £19.95 for ‘ONE’ course. We both ordered the pork which boasted of being accompanied by crackling. No crackling arrived and we queried this. We then got brought out what looked like a plate of bar snacks from a packet. The dinner wasn’t hot enough. The environment was cold and does not warrant being called ‘Fine Dining’. The service however . .. was impeccable. Very polite and attentive. But there were only 3 tables in. Regardless … credit due to the wait and bar staff. We are not complaining about the food. It was edible but in all honesty my 12 year old can cook better. It’s more life cafe food, not the experience we were expecting yet you put the label you have put on a ‘Fine Dining’ experience. What we experienced today was NOT ‘Fine Dining’ and certainly does not warrant £19.95.

It says this is a fine dining experience but it isn’t. The room you dine in is sterile, and the chairs are uncomfortable and at different heights? It was very busy with lots of noisy young children. Our roast dinners were just ok, I would have preferred less food better cooked as helpings were huge. Sorry but it was a bit school dinner.

What does everyone ladies "bookclub" need in their life. Oh yes, a Launays. A group of women got together, had copious amount of gin, and oh my god we inhaled their skin on fries too, the fish finger sandwiches looked AMAZING too. The whole team were friendly, and enjoyed a laugh too, can't wait to visit again when I'm next in the area.

For many years the original Launays was our local restaurant to go to for a special meal or to celebrate occasions. Sadly the new Launays seems to lack the same finesse, and it no longer felt like we were going out for a special evening. We found the interior to be too bright and basic with the experience pub like with loud not typical fine dining restaurant music playing. Loose paper menus were just scattered on to the table for us by the server and there were quite a few items not available on the menu as apparently sold out since the previous day. The food we had was mixed between good & just ok We all enjoy different experiences and for some this change may be good, but for us sadly we’ve now lost somewhere to go locally for a special meal out.

This was our first visit since the change in ownership and we gave them a few months to settle in to avoid any hiccups. Although the food was lovely and the service started off well, this declined towards the end of the evening. We were asked if we wanted a dessert and we were unsure so it was left with us for a few minutes. As it was towards the end of the evening, we were finding it difficult to catch the attention of any staff to order even a coffee. Happy to pay a premium price for a premium experience but this fell short of the mark. Not such a special occasion for us after all...

Wow what an amazing meal, I've always been regular at Launeys and dont often leave reviews. However, the new management are just as fabulous as before. Guy was a lovely waiter, very attentive ensuring our drinks didn't get too low. The chaitebraid we had yesterday was insane and I regularly eat bistecca in Italy. I think yours was better. I'm so pleased seeing people dressed up coming to enjoy a lovely evening with fabulous food. The chilli coconut mojito is insane too.

We’ve not been to Launay’s in a few years and I believe it’s changed hands in that time. I can’t complain about the food or service, as these were both great. The atmosphere that used to make this place so good though seems to be missing and the room we were in didn’t feel as special as it once did, with lots of large tables/dinners. Maybe I’m being harsh, it just feel like it was missing something. As I said the food and service were great.

Having visited before and now recently moved into Edwinstowe we decided to go back to our favourite spot in the area after holidaying here back in 2017 Upon arrival the restaurant was cosy and had been updated a lot since our previous visit. After speaking to the very nice man from behind the bar, we now knew that the business had changed hands and it was apparent throughout. Early Saturday evening and we were surprised how busy the restaurant was, easy choices for me and my wife we both went for mussels and Chatuebriand / both full of flavour and cooked impeccably! We didn’t have room for dessert, however the complimentary wine that comes with the sharing steak was enough for us, we finished it when we had strolled home! Fantastic evening - we will be back

I so wanted to be able to write a positive review about my visit but unfortunately our expectation really fell short. We had 2 fillet steaks, they both came with a sauce that was hardly lukewarm. The mushroom was still hard in the centre, it was barely cooked. My steak was meant to be medium but was still red and leaking blood in the centre. It was the chewiest fillet steak I’ve ever had. The chips were gorgeous and red hot thankfully. The service was good, lots of young but knowledgable and polite staff. I was really disappointed with the menu. A really small menu, even on a Saturday evening! The set menu only has 2/3 choices on it, which was a shame. All in all I am not sure we will rush to return, we are happy to pay a premium price but only for quality food cooked properly.

I came with my 11 Yr old daughter for some quality girly time early evening. I hadn't booked and it was packed but the lovely hostess managed to find us a table. Really lovely atmosphere with a mix of customers, well behaved children and dogs. We had the 3 course set menu, which was excellent value and very generous portions. Mussels to start which were all open, huge and delicate with a delicious home made roll. We both had rump steak, one rare and one medium rare. Melt in your mouth delicious with the mushrooms and green peppercorn sauce! One of the best steaks I've had! The jenga chips defeated us. I asked for dessert to take away, but this couldn't be done due to their presentations. I understood this when they came out. Rhubarb rum baba and chocolate and Guinness sponge. To say we were full, we almost inhaled them, the peanut brittle with the chocolate dessert and ganache was divine. I didn't try the cocktail menu but will definitely be back. The atmosphere was lively and relaxed in different areas, the staff were helpful despite being rushed off their feet. A fantastic gem that I'm fortunate to be local to.

I went with a friend this evening for a meal, whilst listening to music We weren't disappointed. Everything ran like clockwork. From the moment we entered the restaurant/bar, we were made to feel extremely welcome. We were seated at our table, where we were given a set menu for starters and main meals. We made our choices, enjoying a drink while we waited. My friend and I were chatting, but before we knew it our starters came out..... delicious! Onto the main course, and this was as lovely as the first course. Bev (the person who served us) asked if everything was to our satisfaction. It was. When we'd finished our meal, we went and sat in the 'snug' area to enjoy our drinks.. An 'Acoustic' evening was happening which made it all the better. Will definitely be back!

First and foremost the venue is lovely, and the staff were very welcoming and accommodating. Starters of fresh mussels for me and my partner had the scallops, both presented very well and super fresh. Main course was Venison for both of us which has to be one of the best meals I’ve had in the area. It came with beetroot, braised venison ragu, a bbq roasted onion and wild garlic. We couldn’t help but go for a cheese and biscuits and a sticky toffee for after and both were brilliant. As for the drinks, my cocktail was fantastic and my partner went for a glass of red, we soon after ordered a bottle of the Romanian pinot noir as it was recommended with the venison and did not disappoint. Worth a visit and no doubt we will be back.

First visit since the new owners took over and we were not disappointed. Staff are fantastic and friendly and the food was scrumptious. The tall gentleman behind the bar was especially pleasant as always. The only thing I would like to mention and it’s not a complaint but that the gravy has changed….it was still tasty but I did prefer it before so hopefully they take that on board and might make it the previous way again. We are looking forward to many more Sundays at your establishment.

We visited severally under the old management which was always excellent. We were so pleased when Launay’s reopened. We are vegetarian, and for our Sunday mains had the only veggie option which was two slices of broccoli tart (we think), accompanied with asparagus shoots, beans and potatoes. The main course size was more like a starter and we were left feeling hungry. For our child we chose macaroni cheese from the kid’s menu with garlic bread. Bizarrely this came unexpectedly served with strong horseradish sauce which our child wouldn’t touch. Why to put strong horseradish sauce in a kid’s dish is beyond us. We asked for them to remake it, which, to their credit, they did, but this time around it was more like a soup with too much liquid. It was served without the advertised garlic bread second time around. Our child ate half and left the rest. The only good thing about our visit was the beer, a Czech pilsner which was delicious. We decided not to chance the deserts and left hungry to finish eating elsewhere. Just to cap off our visit, we heard loud shouting coming from the kitchen as we returned to our car. We won’t be back. Such a disappointment.

Very disappointed! They took £20 deposit and we expected at least a two course lunch as per the web site! But we were the only customers and had to settle for either a pie or fish and chips! We had seen a positive article in the Southwell magazine and were motivated by a new restaurant offering an upmarket menu! Sadly they are worse than the old owners! Maybe if they didn’t demand and take a deposit they might get more customers. Seems they will not be around very long on the current strategy

We had issues with every course. The scallop (singular) was barely warm and the sauce was cold. Not sure everything mentioned on the menu was on the plate but as we had to preorder weeks ago we weren't sure! The duck liver parfait tasted ok but the presentation was very poor. We all had the rump and belly pork, minus the advertised cep mushroom. The onion really wasnt caramelised and the chips were downright odd and served in a cold dish.The sharing desser barely fed one and the charcoal meringue was awful. The red wine was also served in white wine glasses as apparently they only have 2 red wine glasses! Sorry but not impressed and won't be returning. That's £249 my daughter won't see again!

Appeared too busy had too many covers to cope with so service very poor. The staff did apologise but unfortunately spoilt our experience. Every effort was made however to bring fresh meal and veg but the food was delayed my husband had to eat his meat separate to his veg . Simply it was not good enough on this occasion

The restaurant has seating inside and outside (when the weather is good, it's lovely). Inside the restaurant it is very modern and welcoming. The menu offers a brilliant selection of meals that are amazing. If you haven't been there, you need to go. There are various nights with different entertainment. Murder mystery, comedy, and other events. The menu does change frequently, so you won't get bored with the food available. The staff there are wonderful and always have smiles on their faces, and a warm welcome is always given. I highly recommend this gem hidden in a beautiful area near Sherwood Forest. There is a car park to the rear of the restaurant with limited disabled parking. The entrance is wheelchair accessible as is the restaurant area.

One of our favourite restaurants for special occasions. Lovely food with pleasant attentive staff in a charming atmosphere. The Chateaubriand melts in the mouth! Recommended *****

Food was average, service was poor. Has to ask to order and getting anyone’s attention was a task. Won’t return

The venue pitches itself as a gastro pub but there’s some basics it needs to get right. We visited last week. Our service was consistently poor, members of our party had to repeatedly get up to ask for drinks/sides/clean cutlery/bill and then Chase up Courses that hadn’t arrived for us all and the venue wasn’t massively busy. Stock up on drinks! to run out on a busy Friday night is poor, especially with such bad quality cocktails included. Chicken not cooked through, the mains were sent back there was no apology, replacement or explanation to us. On one of the party getting up to find and check with our server if we would get a replacement or substitution they said they’d check and we heard no more from him. Dessert arrived ok but not to my taste which is subjective- but the cocktails were very very, weak and tasteless. We were told by other diners at a Pub down the road we bumped into that they noticed shots of rum were going out with the cocktails (which we didn’t get) you’d think after mentioning the weak drinks we may have received these?! The menu was - a bowl of sweet potato chips & dip to share, a curried minced beef pastie. Uncooked chicken and rice and a slice of cheesecake… with 3 watery drinks so for £45 a head we felt very short changed. The bill never came so waited in line at the bar to pay, unbelievably no discount for all of our issues we’d raised throughout the night. Generally poor food/service throughout.

Really friendly family atmosphere, and we were made to feel super-welcome with our baby. We were thoughtfully given a table with plenty of space for a pushchair, and provided with a good highchair. Food is excellent; high quality, imaginative and generous - it's rare to get all three together! Starters were outstanding, good bottle of red, and overall really good value.

Service was excellent. Food quality was good but spoilt by not being hot. It was our first visit and we weren't in the best part of the restaurant. The best place seems to be the main room with a conservatory on the end. I'd want to book a table in there if I was going again.

My Brother booked the restaurant for my Birthday lunch. A lovely setting with friendly staff and the service was spot on. We all had a delicious Sunday lunch- fish and roasts. All cooked perfectly. We would absolutely recommend it and return again if we visited the area again. Thanks

We dropped in here for an impromptu decision after being in church and needing to eat. The menu was excellent and the food was even better. Complete gem of a place. Great value for top quality food. We will be returning!

Went for a Murder Mystery evening, three course meal included, we had a really fun evening, excellent atmosphere, a light hearted Cluedo murder mystery (which we failed to solve 🙄) and a good meal.

We had an amazing evening for the murder mystery event. The food was outstanding, as it was when we visited a few weeks ago. We will be back.

First visit today. Lovely front garden seating with beautiful plants and fruits plenty of parking to the rear.. I also spotted electric charging points for new cars. The entrance is just as pleasant as the garden. The decor inside is very taste fully done and pleasant on the eye. Now for the food, absolutely class 👌 everything was 100% fantastic if not more . Definitely be back in the future

A superb menu and fantastic service. Five of us had different starters and main courses that were outstanding. The choice of wine was reasonable. It was a wonderful evening and great value for money.

Tucked away within an antiques emporium this little jewel. From entering the shop you’ll be greeted by a lovely gentleman. The food was exquisite made to order not mass produced. The taste out of this world. Skill, time and quality ingredients. We were blown away. Will definitely visit again! Worth seeking out!

A very good run pub with above average food menu, and tasty dishes to took into. Very busy at peak times our table of 4 had a hour wait for main coarse after starters. But we did get a discount on the final bill. I would recommend this place if your in the area. Staff are polite and friendly

Food delicious but rather pricey. Staff friendly enough but a little brash. It was nice that even though they were busy we did not feel at all rushed. Very clean.
