Lurcher in Newark and Sherwood

Enjoyed the light bite meals on the new menu . Had meals here twice this week, the landlords Gary and Craig are welcoming and the pub has a nice atmosphere.Highly recommended.

Fantastic food. Staff were amazing and great value for money. Highly recommend

Another lovely experience. Wonderful cold drinks in the sunshine with a scrumptious beautifully cooked steak lunch. Highly recommended

Brilliant friendly pub, everyone made welcome great food etc . Couldn't ask for better 🙂

This place is really starting to shine. Nice food, great service and some really good fun to be had. It's really good to see people are so willing to put the effort in when times are so hard for the hospitality industry, even when it's in a out of the way place.

Sounds like an exaggeration but one of the best Sunday lunches I’ve had eating out. In the city you could easily add another £20-£30pp. Generous portions, very nicely cooked and a good selection of extras and desserts. Coming again soon.

Food and service perfect for a Sunday lunch. Fabulous Sunday roast.

Last Thursday myself and 3 friends decided to go in for lunch at 1pm. We were the only people in for food now I know why . We ordered 3 hunters chicken 1 fish and chips one of the hunters chicken was with a jacket.. When it eventually arrived we had never had hunters chicken like it before.. They were all dried up you couldn't see the sauce or bacon on the chicken it was that dried up ..The jacket potato was so hard and the chopped up bit of salad looked like it was a week old ..My friends fish was also dried up..we never complained at the time because one of my friends had had a really bad morning and we didn't want any more upset ..Only good thing was the coffee..All the meals looked like they had been thrown together in the air fryer for ages ..All in all the worst meal we have had at a pub.

Lovely people, lovely atmosphere, but sorry food wasn’t up to scratch for the price , I had burnt frozen fries , gammon with brown grease , dry garden peas , greasy brown pineapple, but lovely onion rings 👍 went home hungry 🤤 xxx

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Went for Sunday dinner - Great presentation and tasted amazing. Definitely recommend

It's nice local pub, with reasonable bear and food. Introduce ordering at the table, and it would make the restaurant experience much better. Lovely restaurant area though! I understand they run some good events, but never been to one. Good community feel here.

A really good place to eat and drink, or to simply relax and socialise. pet and family friendly with a lush interior which is spacious with private seating areas and privacy to speak without being overheard. The drinks are poured well whether it be spirits lager beer or wine. I felt comfortable and relaxed with amazing bar service and friendly relaxed atmosphere. The Sunday lunch was epic with extras if you wanted it. Highly recommended.

Called in today for Sunday roast ,really impressed great meal generous quantity lovey friendly staff Thanks

Lived here 25 years and have always used this venue as like to support local venues New owners Nice warm light night and went out for meal and decided to leave that venue early and call in at our local the Lurcher for a night cap although only 9.25 pm Closed the doors and locked them as we approached said doors Looked on website and states closes at 11 pm It is no good expecting locals to support you if you simply close at random hours because its not profitable . A pub is a local service and should be available to drop in at anytime within the stated opening hours after all you yourselves tell us that’s when your business is available This is the problem with the management running local pubs now who don’t want to put in the effort When you have to close due to lack of trade please do not cry on Facebook and blame the locals for not supporting you as some of us tried

It was a very quiet but quite sunny afternoon but there were only three or four people in the pub however the outdoor tables will neatly set out and clean and inside it was clearly well staffed, wealth stocked and friendly. Glasses were clean and there was a good selection of beer and lager on offer plus a very decent selection of none of alcoholic drinks and refrigerated bottles. Dogs are allowed inside but we did sit outside under an umbrella. Unlike many places the chairs were physical chairs not those fixed pub garden benches that you get your legs stuck in if you have difficulties. I do plan to go and eat soon and we'll hopefully be able to give it five stars

Gary and Craig are fantastic, always have a wonderful time here

Visiting my daughter guys have taken the place over and are doing an amazing job so friendly and welcoming and food is amazing highly recommended

Pretty ordinary pub servingordinarypubgrub. Music a bit loud for my taste.

Nice pub with a warm atmosphere. Staff are friendly and courteous. Nice beers!

First time going to the Lurcher for a meal since lockdown and it was a pleasure . The rump steak was cooked to perfection I had to buy the chef a drink it was that good . We that is myself and my parent immediately booked a Sunday dinner . Staff were pleasant and helpful . We are going back again

Warm welcome by all staff and friendly customers.

Friendly welcome combined with excellent attentative service. Thankyou.

Great place great staff great food

what an amazing Sunday lunch yesterday, the lamb was the best we have ever eaten out, highly recommended, definitely be eating there again

Re-opened after renovations recently so I called in for a quick pint after work with a friend. The decor is lovely, it feels very sophisticated. The food looked and smelled absolutely amazing I will definitely be trying that at some point. My pint was lovely too.

Visited for lunch today and it was brilliant. The pub now looks fresh and crisp. Craig who served us and Gary the chef who are also the licencees were hospitable and friendly. Dog friendly as well so even our puppy got spoilt. Worth a visit

The Sunday dinner was amazing, and staff very friendly. Made myself and my friend very welcome..

friendly and comfortable pub to visit

Very friendly pub dog friendly great outside area reasonable prices.

Went to visit the newly refurbished Lurcher pub under new management and thoroughly enjoyed my meal and time there, very welcoming staff and the food was delicious, I will definitely be returning as it was nice to feel comfortable with the new patrons and staff.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch here today plenty of meat and vegetables and me and my dad both cleared our plates. Thank you Craig and Gary. Fantastic entertainment every weekend too. Lovely staff and The new management are absolutely lovely too.

Always a friendly welcome, food top notch

A few weeks ago my wife and I popped in mid week afternoon for a quick meal. Limited menu but the food was well cooked and good. Went back yesterday with my son and wife at 6.30pm, sat down looked through the menu only to be told the kitchen closed at 6.00pm!! and was told that was normal time, so we left. In the car park the large pub sign clearly says food available until 9.00pm. If the kitchen was short staffed then say so if not change the signage

Very friendly Barstaff Emma and Anya make it a lovely experience. Good prices and lovely food.

Myself and wife visited a couple of weeks ago. Food was lovely, staff very friendly amd a good price too. We will and have recommended and visit again

Found a camping site it was lovely kept well done to the owners lovely place to camp have some lovely walks thank you for a great stay there

always have a great time here at our knitting club staff very polite

Plenty of space, nice building. Such a shame they don't do food anymore. Really should do it again as I'm sure the pub would thrive

Good pub and friendly customers and staff.

Went to have a meal only to find out stopped serving food

Called in at the lurcher on Christmas eve with my son and his girlfriend. £16.30 for 1 pint cider, 1 pint lager and a gin and tonic. I'm now kicking myself for not getting a receipt. Make sure you get one and check yours. It didn't show up on my phone app statement until the 29th Dec.

This is a lovely pub, spacious and clean good choice of drinks

Really enjoyed my time at the Lurcher today with the Knitwit group, l was made to feel very welcome by the group and also staff at the pub. l will definitely be returning.

Nice little pub serving a newish estate on your way to farnsfield... serves food too

Brilliant pub. Great atmosphere and they accept dogs too. Brilliant pint

Absolutely brilliant food and hospitality recomend going there definitely

Went here after recommendation from my son! Had Sunday roast, it was superb, the Yorkshire puddings were home made. The roast beef cooked to perfection and stuffing balls to die for. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Will definatly be back xx

First visit with some friends, pleasant atmosphere and not noisy like a good many places these days. Staff were polite, friendly and helpful. We will be returning before long most likely to sample their menu. After that 4* may well become 5* if the catering lives up to expectations.

I had chicken curry straight from the freezer to the microwave very disgusting how they can serve food like this & then change you £10 for it unbelievable 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

We love this place! It's our local since we moved here - just a short walk from home. Such a lovely friendly atmosphere and the staff are very attentive and often very busy too! This is a proper family pub with really good menu of meals to suit everyone! Great food, cooked to perfection. We have even has a Christmas meal here! Love the chips with their skins on - makes a nice change from plain chips. Well worth a visit and the drinks aren't overpriced either.

You get what you pay for. I won't order the coffee again.

Superb food, superb selection of drinks and friendly atmosphere.

I had a lovely meal there. My family and I have been to the Lurcher many times over the years and although it has changed ownership several times it has remained a very friendly local pub. The current chef is excellent

Really nice good food. Marvellous!!

Eaten there today food was beautiful and serve was quick and place is very friendly

Salright for a local pub, foods pretty good and standard price. Nothing special but nothing to dislike.

Lovely friendly pub,made us feel very welcome as we have just moved into the village,the food was absolutely gorgeous,very tasty & hot.Would highly recommend to anyone,and looking forward to our next visit 😋❤️😊

Starting to pick up . Not had any food yet but what they where serving looks ok , landlord friendly

Friendly service and steak done to perfection. Would like a bigger choice of food

Nice little pub, we stopped in for a quick pint. Good selection of brews and friendly staff. Has a pool table.

Seven of us went in yesterday and all had a delicious lunch. Fantastic food and lovely atmosphere. We would recommend The Lurcher to everyone.

Fab local pub, great service, great food and great Gin!

Stopped here for a quick drink while walking the dog's. Staff we're very friendly and helpful, as for the landlord and landlady they are lovely, so friendly and welcoming. They made a fuss of the dog's and took timeout from sorting the gardens to have a chat with us. Decided that we'll have a bite to eat next time we visit. Great place.

Excelent! A warm welcome , great pub , great food

Nice friendly pub prices are very reasonable

Absolutely outstanding food from a brilliantly tasty menu all made from scratch at fair prices.. fantastic friendly staff and hosts.. Dining area seperate from pool and darts area which always brings a friendly crowd in and pretty much covers every aspect youd want from ya perfect pub...love the place 👍

Not ate here for a while as the last meal we had was terrible.Must say new management,great improvement.Food was lovely

Really impressed with Sunday lunch - all beautifully cooked and presented. Excellent prices - will definitely be back.

Brilliant now they are a freehouse. The priorswell local brewery beers are just lovely. Well worth trying the real ales. Food is very nice also.

Had the Loaded Hunter's Chicken Chips on the Sunday menu. Was good. Had the Brownie cake for dessert which had no indication of nuts on the description...

The food and service were very good much better than previous times we had been

I am appalled that the owners of this pub have banned my 2 year old little boy! I understand that he shouldn't of thrown the vinegar bottle which ended in a lady getting it on her items of clothing and you having to give her a free drink! every child throws something at that age at some point and it isn't like we don't chastise him or discipline him but for him to be banned and then us told we can bring our other 3 children in but not our 2 year old is beyond me! every other owner as always loved him and made a effort with him and understood that he's 2 he's a toddler! I think this is pathetic and im apalled and think yourself lucky ive not been in and gave you a piece of my mind!! you both need to smile more and the landlord couldn't get more miserable even if he tried! take it you've never had children hope it makes you feel better picking on a 2 year old!!!!

Food very good service second to none

Ok for a quick drink. Food prices very reasonable although we haven't eaten here.

Lovely food!!! Live a 2min walk away from here so comes in handy for a gorgeous meal!!! Don't drive so quite a walk down to the shops with 2yr old that's a handful, so popping here for a nice meal where the atmosphere is great and the food is excellent quality for the price!!! Xxx

Too much of a local to be special

Disgusting state of the floor should ashamed to serve food there. Long delay for my quick meal which was only just alright. This used to be much better. No wonder it is for sale. Will not ever visit again.

The more you drink, the better it becomes.

Went last Wednesday joined in the quiz night staff very welcoming and friendly

Great food reasonable prices and quiet

After hearing good things about this place we decided to try it out. ordered quick, i had a 8oz rump steak medium that was supposed to be served with chips, peas, grilled tomato, mushrooms and onion rings. when arrived it was only served with mushy peas and chips. After complaining we was told they had sold out of onion rings mushrooms and tomatoes. However they could of told us this when we ordered as i would of had something different to eat. They would not offer an alternative after the meal came out and just said they had put extra chips on. Aswell as this one of my steaks were cooked rare when i asked for medium. I know they were busy but i dont think it was acceptable and wasnt verry impressed with my dinner.

I live just around the corner which is handy

Simple pub with decent pub food.

Great pub cheap and cheerful food and drinks can't go wrong
