Magna Charta in Newark and Sherwood

Another great afternoon in the Magna. Friendly staff who always make the time for a chat and are always pleased to see you. Holly and her team are a credit to Greene King

We visit the Magna Charta regularly, passing several other pubs with restaurants on the way. Holly and her staff are always friendly and welcoming however busy they are. They are always happy to make alterations to the menu or substiutions to suit our requirements. On our last visit we were served by Shanice.

Shanice was particularly helpful and efficient , the food was excellent as always . This asks for more words than is necessary

A lovely pub with excellent food and service. Shanice was very polite and helpful while serving our table. Will visit again.

We had Family visiting for the weekend and booked a wheelchair accessible table that also had space for a pram… Neve served us, she was friendly and looked after us well, the food was delicious , 2 family members had the steak, commenting it was the best they have tasted….! Friendly staff Great food Lovely atmosphere

- Overcooked. - Food was cold by time in came out. - Long wait for Food. - Long wait for drinks. - Although the staff were friendly, service wasn’t great. No one came over to ask for drinks, had to ask when they brought the food out. Then they took that long we had finished our food before the drinks even came out.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch , was hot tasty, staff polite and helpful, sweet delicious, nice afternoon out .would recommend Sunday roast here.

As locals, it’s easy to say positive things… but I can honestly say it’s a warm welcome from Holly, her management team & whole staff every time we visit, not just for us but all those that come through the doors! Food is always out in a timely fashion, good quality, hot etc etc…. The array of drinks available is of a great standard & options are endless! Fantastic enclosed beer garden with great facilities for young children.

Fantastic place, food and staff are always spot on! We visit every weekend, steaks are amazing! I would highly recommend the fajitas with extra wraps!

We love this pub! The staff can’t do enough for you and the food always taste amazing!! Huge well done to the landlady Holly Snowdon, you’re doing a fantastic job x

The foods are nice. The place is clean. The staff, Holly is lovely. She was very accommodating and see to it that we were served well with our orders and kept checking if everything is okay.. We enjoyed our dinner.

Excellent all round experience staff all very tentative in all ways,quick efficient service and good food and beer.will definitely be back.

Always enjoy the Pub and Grill at the Magna. Holly and the team are always so helpful and the menu choices are great. All staff always smiling especially Shanice, Amber, Georgia and Tom. Had a great meal today with a few Guinness. We will return. Thank you

As always another great family meal here, food seems to just be a level above other green kings and the service is always excellent! Didn't really get to use the outdoor area much being December! But I'm always happy to travel that extra bit in summer for the beer garden alone, the park is perfect for letting the kids run wild whilst you soak up the sun with a beer

We regularly to go to Magna Charta. Food is always great and the staff are too. Holly and team make us feel welcome everytime

Always have a great time when we come to The Magna, the food is amazing and staff are always so friendly! Definitely a firm favourite in our family.

After my sister's funeral we held her Wake at the Magna Charta. After being welcomed by the staff we were presented with a fabulous buffet which included assorted sandwiches, pork pies, quiche, salads and slaw, etc. Everything was freshly made and delicious. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Our grateful thanks to Holly and her team.

Had lunch with friends. Great food in lovely surroundings. Holly gave us great service. We regularly visit because of its location so are pleased that our visits are always enjoyable. Thanks Holly.

Love this pub, so friendly and attentive! The staff go above and beyond to make sure we’re happy and we regularly visit for drinks as well as food.

Always enjoy my evening out at the magna, had a lovely meal as usual food excellent,steak cooked to my liking. Never had a bad meal yet would recommend, staff friendly and polite .

Fantastic meal at the Magna. The scampi was fantastic and my wife enjoyed her steak. The staff were very friendly and the service was very quick. We will return

Just had to write a quick review on the ribeye steak I had. It was cooked to perfection. After going to Son of Steak in town and chewing my way through a very expensive sirloin, this more than restored my faith in good old British steak and chips. Thankyou.

We visited for a family meal tonight. Always friendly staff who are also very helpful and professional. Great service all our meals were very well presented, quick to arrive and all hot and fresh. Delicious. Lovely atmosphere, Holly and the team do a great job.

Went back to Notts today , Xmas , family etc after living in BJ I was familiar with this place , so we met half way . Not eaten in here before but it was superb , great environment, delicious food and well what can you say about the service , Shanice , take a bow !

Great steak great service. Had a crispy squid starter which I really enjoyed. My main was a ribeye steak which was delicious . Sadly we didn't have room for a dessert.

Friends Christmas Party. We booked a table for 8 & chose from the Festive 3 course menue. We had precooked & paid a deposit. The was ready whrn we arrived. The staff were excellent, nothing too much trouble. The food was delicious, everyone commented on hiw good it was so being the organisers that was great to hear. We had a great night & looked after well by the staff, thank you.

Have been visiting the Magna for a while now and have always found Holly and the team to be professional and friendly. They literally can't do enough to make sure your visit is perfect. Would certainly recommend anyone to visit.

A nice clean place to eat menu is good and the staff attentive friendly and helpful Menu went a little off earlier this year but back up to speed - the place is clean well laid out and relaxed Mixed grill very nice and plenty of it

Been here a fair few times and never had any faults. But tonight, we came out as a family for a birthday meal and what an awful experience we had! We was seated in the most awkward area. We had a child with us who required a highchair. They could not of put us in the most smallest areas if they tried. The gentleman that took our food order took down our starters and mains. Unfortunately after having our starters the experience started. He asked us if we wanted dessert menus while clearing away our starters. We was a bit confused after having told him our mains as well. I had to go over to the bar to ask a waiter if the mains had been put through and his response was 'have you not received your mains yet'. After receiving our mains we was not asked if everything was ok with our food. A short while after a couple of us were still eating our meals and a waitress then approached the table to take down our dessert orders. We was still eating which I thought was very rude. We felt rushed. Overall experience was shocking. Totally gone down hill!!

Lovely pub and great service! Super friendly staff, we were served by Holly and Shanice who made us feel very welcome. Food was delicious, definitely recommend!

Once again would like to say what a lovely meal I had at the Magna Carta, had something different to what I always have (burger, fries , coleslaw , onion rings) garlic mushrooms for starter, and Raspberry cheesecake, ice cream , raspberry sauce) staff very welcoming,helpful, and polite. Would truely recommend dinning there .

Fantastic sunday lunch at the Magna Charter - I particularly recommend the turkey, with a side of sausage in blanket - delicious! Holly was helpful and welcoming, the whole team is great.

Just to add to my previous review service was slow the staff did not ask if everything was OK with food also out of stock of wine.

Absolutely brilliant, me and my partner had a fillet steak each and it was cooked to perfection, holly and the team were so helpful and all had smiles on their faces

Lovely family brunch. Great service. Fabulous food and drinks. Such a friendly place to go staff always welcoming. Helpful about the menu. Food arrives hot and tasty.

I came here with my family and we had the lunch menu. I have a nut allergy and they brought me a separate menu on an Ipad with all the food that I can have which I really like. Also, the food was amazing.

Visited with my family, had a great experience. food was great and server (shanice) was amazing, nothing was too much trouble for her. highly recommend!!

If you’re looking for the perfect family pub, look no further. Came here with my husband and 18 month old and it was perfect. Kids menu options were fab, the park was great for all ages and food was delicious as always (get the burger!!)....

Me and and Friends visited last weekend for a few drinks and food. Top quality service, and the food was delicious. Overall experience was 10/10 would definitely visit again. Would recommend to anyone !

Popped down to this lovely pub at the weekend with my family for some dinner and as usual the service was excellent and the food was lovely. Very friendly staff. Good friendly atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!

Just had the most amazing ultimate burger from here with the gravy sauce. Shanice served me and she was just a delight 😊

Booked a table for a catch up with friends. Service was excellent and the veggie burger was the best one I’ve had in ages. Really enjoyed it! Lovely atmosphere and great menu selection.

The waitress was thoughtful and kind in finding us a quiet place to seat my elderly mum. It wasn’t an issue getting my mum a child’s breakfast, as adult portions overwhelm her and it arrived well presented, hot and tasty. My pancakes were delicious! I...

Fantastic service from our server Ellie. Veggie food tasted good and we had a very nice experience.

We ate here at the weekend, five big breakfasts and five big disappointments. The scramble egg had been cooked in a microwave and was very dry, the bacon was very very salty and had been cooked on the steak griddle and you could taste was...

A family birthday outing for Sunday lunch. As usual great food and service. Friendly greeting and attentive staff. A superb choice of food, the roast beef was especially good.

This was a most disappointing experience. Our cauliflower starter was poor with a wilting green dressing. Our main course of mixed grill was only mediocre too. The chicken was stiff and tasteless. Only the sausage and egg could be called acceptable. As a fan of...

We sat outside Food was lovely but not enough staff And need to look at the age who they are serving definitely groups not over 18

Avoid this place at all costs. When we visited this place for a long overdue get together. We asked for a table to eat,and was informed to find a table. The same member of staff then came to our selected table,short time later,and with a...

We booked one half of the pub at lunchtime for an informal party of 40 adults, 11 children and 10 babies and pre-ordered from their buffet menu. It was an ideal venue with a large outside space that kept the children happy. The buffet far...

We visited the Magna Charta for some dinner before the show at the village hall. My girlfriend is Vegan so decided on the Char-Grilled Courgette Skewers to start. They arrived and the rice inside of the courgette was raw. We sent it back and they...

Pretty regular diners here, we came last Saturday and sat at table 22(I think) near my favourite cheese plant It was very busy and understandably the meals took a bit longer to be served, which was no problem 3 superb meals, chicken skewer, smothered chicken...

Very disappointing evening…… As chain pubs go this place used to be pretty decent and always served a reasonable steak with good, friendly service from an enthusiastic team. We had a couple of recent visits where we were less than impressed, but thought we’d give...

Very nice food, plenty of it. Nice and warm restaurant. Good prices and servers are nice. The ribs were great.

Really good meal we enjoyed it very much on our way home we like the pub and the menu and would like to Come back soon

Visited here for the first time ever. It was half way between two of us and a friend coming from the otherside of Notts. The veggie fajitas with halloumi were really tasty. Maybe needed a larger portion of sour cream that next time I will...

Always amazing, steaks are to die for!! Food and service is fabulous. Myself and my husband are massive foodies and would 100% recommend this place. You just can’t get a steak like this anywhere else, try the rib eye!!

Where do I start... Bar staff, friendly, efficient and helpful. Menu, one of the best pub chain menus we have seen. Something for everyone. Serving staff. Very helpful and nothing too much trouble. Drinks, great selection but I'm biased here as I love the ice...

Waited more than an hour and a half for our food to arrive. Turns out they forgot to put our order in their system. In addition, some of the food was burned. Overall we were very disappointed about the service.

Great meal with friendly and efficient server called Ellie. Steaks are great here always cooked to perfection

We visited the Magna Charta today, extremely good service from all staff especially Amber. Really looked after us and coming from another greeneking pub in a different city we loved it! Asked to move tables and wasn't a problem, asked for more sauces and they...

Had a wonderful time today at the Magna. We were served by the lovely Amber. My partner couldn’t handle the spice on one of the dishes, which we all found amusing. Amber was attentive, welcoming and put as at ease after a previous bad experience...

We attend this lovely place regular and have always been totally satisfied. Today we had a little problem that was professionally, politely sorted out for us by Honey. THANKYOU we will be back 😁

Great atmosphere. Amazing food. Impeccable service from the waitress (Jess). She was extremely friendly and attentive.

Back in april we had a bad experience in the magna carta. And i had to complain. Weve not been since we have been trying different pubs in the area. So We thought we would give it another try passing through lowdom on our way...

I have just tried the Char-Grilled Korean BBQ Glazed Chicken off the specials menu. Wow so tasty! This is my new favourite meal 🤤 Greene King, please add this dish to your main menu!!

Have visited the Magna a few times recently for drinks & food with both family and friends. Staff always welcoming and friendly. Variety of drinks and food choices. Good portion sizes and great value for money - food has always been tasty and arrived quickly....

We recently visited the Magna Charta in Lowdham. We were attended to quickly, even though it appeared to be busy with customers - the staff were welcoming and swiftly took us to a table. We ordered both food and drinks, with the drinks arriving briskly....

Excellent food and drink, served by attentive staff - Thank You, Lewis. Lovely beer garden to keep the children amused.

Great welcome on arrival, clean and bright interior waitress and bar staff busy but very helpful and polite. Menu and food excellent and value for money plus a good selection of hand pulled beer. Highly recommended. We will definitely go back again.

We had a such a great time on Wednesday evening, the food and service was top notch as always. The specials are a get addition to the main menu and the dipping steak was delicious! Thank you for such a great time!
