Little Pickle in Erewash

We stayed here after a party 22/03 Would not recommend for the price, we paid £80 for a family room. No guards on any of the beds, there was a big mirror just leant against the wall, dangerous when you have children. Pillows was as flat as anything, the kettle wasnt near a socket on the table so plugged in on the floor, again not ideal when you have children. The shampoo / conditionor / body wash was an all in one. Cups were chipped, mattresses weren’t comfy, light bulbs was dim and not maintained.. Poor foe the price.

Good choice of plants (all well watered) at reasonable prices.

We booked for Easter Sunday, even though staff pleasant, not impressed with food, we ordered off menu, the mix grill was overcooked, didn't have enough steak for 1 mix grill, the chicken strips etc we ordered were overcooked, sauce overheated in microwave, i think the Carvery is in wrong place as kitchen door right next to it and going for Carvery you block the door for staff in and out with other meals, think Mallard need to have a re think on altering Carvery stand plus if know going to be busy on a Sunday either stick to a Carvery, not off menu, so you can concentrate on one thing . Plus I had asked for easy access to loo for my dad who has trouble walking and stuck us furthest away , without ease to loo ,

Brilliant potential with new owner. Willing to challenge what beers they should sell. We look forward to what they do in the future

I had no food but it looked good. Just started going in as I want to find a "local". Staff very friendly and beer very good. Good feeling in the pub. Will go again.
