NAVAAR HOUSE HOTEL RESTAURANT in Midlothian

Before we arrived had speedy replies ro any questions, owner called us on the day to check when we would be arriving as he had to pop out and didn't want to miss us. On arrival we were met by Emma who was just so friendly helpful and smiley we booked breakfast for the next day for £8 each. We went to the bistro for tea prices of drinks reasonable and for the size of the portions of food the price reasonable again we were served well by Emma. The room was fairly clean and comfortable peeling borders on the walls weren't great and folder on window ledge was quite dusty but otherwise room spot on. Loved the history of the navaar and how they tried to incorporate within the decorations in the room. Was very shocked to arrive back after a day in Edinburgh to find the room had been service and supplies restocked really nice touch. Could hear the bus going passed quite early in the morning but I'm a very light sleeper.

We stayed here just one night in a budget double room, bed was very comfy, everything was there that we needed and more. The full Scottish breakfast was amazing £8 for. 3 rashers bacon. 2 fried eggs. 2 sausages. Mushrooms aplenty. Black pudding. Haggis Tattie scone. Baked beans. Toast (lots of) Tea and coffee. Butter. And preserves. Cereals. Yogurt. Orange juice. All of Which was very well cooked and served we with a smile. Dinner the previous night was very nice and keenly priced Lovely chatty girl behind the bar talked to us and we'd known each other for years. Thank you to all for a lovely experience, short as it was. And, they are posting our wash bags home that we forgot. Thanks guys and good luck for the future.

Staff were lovely serving behind bar and taking orders for food. So disappointed with the food, very overpriced. I got a macaroni with garlic bread, was nothing special and for £18 I was shocked. Restaurant was extremely quiet for 7 o'clock on a friday night but I can see why. No atmosphere, food presentation was poor. I would probably not even consider there again when you can eat for less and better quality in other establishment in Penicuik. Something needs to change.

We stayed here with some of our family for three nights. The staff are beyond helpful, friendly and professional. It is clean and well presented considering how old the building is, they manage to present it well. The food is lovely and very well presented and home made. The chef also is a lovely man. The bar area is full of local characters Overall a very welcoming place to stay!

There were 19 of us for Christmas lunch, all preordered, service was good and staff friendly. The portions of main course were far too big and only 3 of us cleared our plates. Unfortunately, as in previous years, the vegetables were not fresh, they were frozen and did not taste nice. The starters and sweets were a good size. Smaller mains and fresh veg please.

Came here since the hotel I am staying in did not bother to take my order after a 15 min wait. Found this place nearby and so glad I did. Right from the time I entered, the staff was very welcoming. Ordered the crispy haggis which came out promptly. This was followed by the steak pie. WHICH WAS AMAZING. The meat was cooked so well that it melted in your mouth. And the pie was so flaky. So glad that I walked out of the previous place....this place is a hidden gem

this place deserves top class reviews we come here as often as we can the meals are always lovely & served with very pleasant staff but have just heard very recently that Glen the owner has been ill do hope he is making a good recovery he is a very quiet & pleasant man good wishes for a speedy recovery & we will be back soon to enjoy those lovely meals .

Excellent accueil, un personnel attentif, un hébergement dans le souci du détail : tout était parfait !

Organised our first Burns lunch at The Navaar the food was excellent the services was first class. Management very helpful and met all our needs and very easy to work with, whole experience was first class. While experience was great. Well done Navaar. Many thanks again.

Had a fabulous Christmas dinner at The Navarr yesterday, Christmas Eve. The whole experience was wonderful from the staff waiting tables, serving at the bar and the chef and kitchen staff it was a memorable experience for all of us. A big thank you to Team Navaar.

Personnel accueillant et souriant Joli terrasse Endroit cosy Bon rapport qualité/ prix Calme et reposant Nous reviendrons

Friendly staff, good food, nice setting with beer garden, live music and very comfortable bed. Great option if you're in the area.

A few miles outside Edinburgh this pub/restaurant has a 'tasty' menu offering pub grub and more fancy options (eg steak). The portions are large and the quality excellent with local produce being used.

For our Edinburgh visit we wanted to stay in Penicuik to revisit some old haunts - our family lived in Penicuik leaving the town way back in the 70's. What a gem the Navaar turned out to be. A warm welcome, good food, a lively and friendly bar. It will be our 'go to hotel' when we return next year.

We had a family dinner here. The food was lovely but very small portions for the price. Also glass of diluting juice for kids £2.50 expensive! Starter x4 halloumi fries £5.60.. The staff that were serving us weren't friendly, they just did their job with no interaction.

My husband and I often drop into the Navarro House for lunch. Wonderful young polite helpful waiting staff. Menu choices are good as is the food when it comes to the table. Highly recommend.

Stayed here for one night whilst working away. My first impressions were just how friendly the team are here at Navaar house. The gent who checked me in and showed me the room was very welcoming., I presume he may have been the owner as he had been here 20 years. My room (room 1) was compact but spotless and was well equipped, work desk, large screen tv, kettle, biscuits and was newly decorated. Bathroom very spacious as well. What i really liked was the fact there were dual aspect windows overlooking a well tended garden, all very clean , warm and cosy. Straight into the bar, packed with friendly locals enjoying the sport. Straight away the young girl working in the bar was over and took my drink order, and the nice thing was she kept coming over just as I was getting to the bottom of my pint, perfect! Dinner in the bistro was excellent, one of the nicest pies ever, Aberdeen Angus beef, melt in the mouth, served with really good fresh veg. Again, the girls in the bistro were lovely and welcoming. Breakfast in the morning, I felt guilty as I was the only resident in that night and the breakfast chef had to turn out just for me. He was really pleasant and somewhat surprised that i didn't take up the offer of the "full Scottish", which I am sure would have been excellent. I ordered fried egg and bacon , perfectly cooked and preceded by cereals, fruit, and juice. All in all a great stopover. I just cant think why you would want to spend nearly double the amount to stay in Edinburgh which is only 20 mins away. Will definitely stay here again.

My daughter has just treated me to the best Christmas dinner I have had in a long time. We shared the mushrooms stuffed with Brie and chicken liver pate, both fantastic. I then had turkey which was beautiful and melted in my mouth. The dessert was also to die for. Wishing all the staff at the Navarr a merry Christmas and a happy new year! 😍😍

Having been recommended by family that The Navaar takeaway food was excellent thought better try for myself! Wasn’t disappointed from ordering to delivery all went smooth with card payment at the door food hot just fantastic, girls enjoyed steak pie plenty between them good quality too, wife enjoyed Mac and cheese good hearty homemade she tells me! My turkey dinner was bang on, lashings of gravy, generous portion of turkey and roasters not to mention Brussels and stuffing just tremendous we had 2 courses for £15 great value both starters of prawn cocktail and stuffed mushrooms excellent came with fresh salad all in all excellent dinner well worth a try defo order again in these trying times very important to support local businesses!

We just had the most amazing takeaway dinner from this establishment every bite of a three course meal was excellent It is our anniversary and because of restrictions could not go out for a meal but I must say that the ordering the pick up and the quality of the food and service was second to none We would definitely recommend this Navaar Hotel to everyone

Went for lunch today , haggis Bon bons for starter, Aberdeen Angus steak pie for main .. absolutely scrumptious, steak pie was full of beautiful chunks of steak and the most amazing rich gravy , service was excellent , covid restrictions all adhered to, friendly waitresses, highly recommended

Driving back from a lovely day trip to Peebles. We stopped off at the Navaar House Hotel, Penicuik for a spot off Dinner.2 Lovely meals and drinks, all at a very reasonable price.Staff were very friendly & tentative, making sure all diners were adhering to the appropriate Regulations for Dining Out. No worries regarding sitting to close to another table. Indeed The Navaar has outdoor facilities both for meals and drinks.Defo will be back...

I visited shortly after the Lockdown restrictions were eased. The owners had taken COVID-19 precautions seriously. My room (1) on the ground floor was tiny. The bed was comfortable and the shower worked. It might have a tendency towards damp in the winter. The breakfast was enormous and very good.

Lovely meal with lovely friends great service enjoyed the atmosphere decor very modern & spotlessly clean would definitely return for family meal in the future

Eat at the Navaar regularly. It never fails - the food is very good and the staff are wonderful. Plenty to choose from and great gluten-free menu.

Table for 15 booked at very short notice (8 hours). No trouble at all. This was a family get-together after a funeral and wake the previous day. The whole menu was on offer plus, as it was Burns night, traditional haggis, tatties & neeps. Big and varied order included gluten-free and vegan & neither choice was any problem. Service was prompt and very cheerful with drinks being produced quickly and efficiently. For starter I chose cock-a-leekie soup, which was flavoursome and excellent and I continued in traditional vein with the haggis, the best I have ever tasted enhanced with a lovely Drambuie sauce. Every one of the 15 guests expressed total satisfaction. I asked for my appreciation to be conveyed to the chef, who promptly emerged from his kitchen to discuss his secrets about haggis preparation & cooking. This was the highlight of my rare visit to the town which saw my birth. Thank you to all and everyone who contributed.

Great place to eat food good staff very friendly service really good prices very good small portions are great for me and friends keep up the good Work xx

on arrival at this hotel we were shown to a nice table for two our server was very polite and helpful the place was spotlessly clean and had a good choice on the menu we chose the soup of the day which was great got a good plateful and the hot roll just went down a treat our main meal was haddock and chips and peas which was served up very quickly, unfortunately, the fish batter was very greasy/oily and the chip were rather hard on the outside resulting in the wife leaving quite a lot of the meal she was asked if everything was ok so as not to cause a scene said was not hungry it was a shame as the place was realy nice but the meal let it down

I stayed one night with family. The owner / manager waited up for us as we arrived after 10pm. He showed us to our rooms. The rooms were newly decorated, clean and really nice. The staff in the morning were fantastic. Can't fault this place at all. Would stay again.

Visit here on a regular basis, it’s been run by the same family for many years and the food is always excellent and staff very friendly. Great garden area to sit out on a nice day if you want to eat al fresco.Pate and fillet steak are my favourites. Their homemade puds are amazing, I sometimes ask to take one home as I’m always to full. Everything on the menu is very reasonable priced even the wine.

My sister & her husband were staying at the Hotel so we met there for dinner.The staff were so friendly & helpful.Great menu & the food we ordered was beautifully cooked & the portions were great.Lovely dining area & really busy.I would highly recommend Navaar House .......

Friday fish tea £20!5pm-6pm includes bread and butter and a drink ..Perfect! Cooked and presented well just right amount(smaller portions available) staff friendly and efficient And defenatly be back Well done to Glen and his team👍😁

My colleagues & I enjoyed an amazing buffet and drinks in the beer garden of the Navaar. All the staff couldn’t be more helpful. 2 of them stayed over and loved their room. We went back for drinks later - Amy and Glen were both brilliant as were all the staff working there. Will definitely be back!

We enjoyed a Mother's Day meal on 31.03.19 and 12 of us were very satisfied with the food, the service, the value and the venue. The team, including the manager is always accessible to customers and really attentive to individual requests.

Stayed for one night in the hotel. Lovely atmosphere all staff friendly and welcoming.

Had family meal Saturday evening. Meals were delicious, staff very friendly and price reasonable. A lovely open plan restaurant very popular when we were in. There is also a large bar with a couple of real ales ( and a real fire ).

Out for meal at naval last night with niece and her husband from Warrington Cheshire he said its worth coming all this way just to have a steak at the n avaar service excellent as always

Found Navaars on Google when looking for somewhere to eat and it had good reviews. Almost drove past it but glad we had sat nav.

visited navaar for years & no complaints ,but because of family circumstances have not been recently ,do they still do half portions ?

Only time all the close family could get together for my 70th birthday.

I go here quite often with a Ladies Group, the food is excellent and you can get small portions if you wish. Very reasonably priced also a good variety of starters, mains and desserts. We have already booked for Christmas.

Cosy private dining area ideal for smaller parties. Hot and cold buffet provided was Excellent. Staff all very attentive. Well done!

We had a fantastic surprise 70th birthday meal for our Mum. The dining room was an excellent venue. The menu was perfect and food delicious. The staff were very attentive. This is our 2nd booking for a family party and we will certainly be back. Thank you to Glen and the Navaar team, you are excellent.

This restaurant was recommended to us by a local resident when we were walking in the nearby hills. It turned out to be convenient to get to from the B&B; where we were staying outside Penicuik.

Came across this hidden gem when looking for somewhere to have lunch with friends. I contacted the hotel to book a table and received a reply very quickly from Glen. I was pleasantly surprised with the menu, what it offered and the prices. The food was delicious, well presented and overall fantastic. The young waitress Jodie (I think) was very attentive and good with the customers, smiling and happy to help. The restaurant had a great atmosphere and I got the impression the people eating were regular visitors, which would not surprise me as I too will be a returning customer. There are doors leading to the garden where there were people also eating, everything so relaxed. I would definitely recommend this place be it lunch or dinner.

Having been several times before for lunch, we took my mother for dinner. Evening prices are obviously a bit higher than lunch but the choice is just as good, food is hot, fresh and tasty and reasonably priced. Decent portion sizes and friendly staff.

Took the family in for dinner whilst our kitchen is out of action

amazing staff make you feel really welcome , food is amazing , been few times twice when there was about 15 of us , staff were brill with kids as well xx

Phoned up yesterday lunchtime to ask if we could come in, five walkers and a dog. On being assured the dog was civilised - wasn't asked about the walkers - we were welcomed. Had lunch in a small room off the main bistro - very comfortable because a big dog needs some space. Good food and decent beer at a reasonable price, friendly service and the waitress was very nice to the mutt. At one time, in this area, we might have gone to another establishment nearer the hills, but it's had rather a bad press recently.

Lovely homemade food. Great value for money, love the small eat option great. Will defo be back and have told my friends and family to visit too.

Lovely reastruant..food although very simple was fantastic! Steak cooked perfect and other meals cooked well prices were great ! couldnt fault anything... Staff friendly and efficient Booking recommended And definitely go back Well done to owner Glenn and team!

Excellent food and great value for money. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant and the staff were first class.

Have eaten in here many times for lunch and dinner food is good service is good and a great drinks menu

We were a group of 24 family and friends celebrating my daughters 18th birthday ,It was absolutely amazing ,glen who owns the hotel and his wonderful staff were brilliant and could not do enough for us,the food was fantastic and the ambience was lovely ,Rachel and Linda ,thank you so much ,we have decided as a family that every month we are going for a meal

Had our wedding reception here 33 years ago and still pop in for a meal and drinks, it has a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, food is lovely and excellent value, beer garden is great in summer.

Recommended this place by a friend and would be unlikely to notice it otherwise. The wood burner in the dining area was a nice treat! The menu is great and it is all reasonably priced and then you see the portion sizes and see that it is unbelievably generous for the cost!

Came here as a family of five for lunch

Eaten here thrice in last month, never disappointed, soups and broth top drawer, mains come in large and larger, I have only just learned about the reduced portions, next time ??? Great service and no pressure...

I've been here a number of times and the food has never failed to impress. Friendly service and good, home style cooking. Will definitely be back.

Viajamos a Penicuik con frecuencia a visitar el Navaar y nunca han defraudado. El paisaje rural y el fuego de carbón son de lo más agradable y el servicio es siempre bueno. Hemos visitado en ocasiones ocupados para el día de la madre, la víspera de Navidad, etc. Y nunca he tenido ninguna queja. La comida es asequible y una gran relación calidad-precio, como son de tamaño decente siempre raciones, y la comida es de alta calidad. Hay un gran menú, hay algo para todo el mundo y nuestros niños siempre están atendidos. Soy libre de gluten y estoy siempre con su amplia gama de Menú sin gluten. El personal es servicial, y el ambiente es particularmente acogedor. Un trato personalizado que mi familia disfrute el chef viene a comprobar que todo estaba bien con nuestras comidas - agrega un sentido de personalización a la experiencia. No puedo recomendar el suficiente y, por supuesto Navaar - volveremos de nuevo! Agradable para los niños y un jardín de cerveza también, ¿qué más se puede pedir? !

I am a regular at Navaar ,reason being ,the meals are delicious ,never had a bad one yet & the personal touch is with Jim coming out to ask if everything was alright ,but on going two weeks ago ,it was so cold it was hard to enjoy our meal ,I can understand it will not always be busy at lunch time compared to the evening ,so may feel the fire is not needed ,but it does make an awful difference ,& the cold days are still with us, but I will still continue to come for the lovely meals ,but hope it will be warmer next time .

I love the Navaar, staff great food perfect every time! I've never had a bad meal & would always choose this place in the area for a pub lunch! Great menu & everything on it I've tried & not been disappointed. Place is super cute with an open fire place etc & it's so cheap! Please visit!

My Mother booked this up for Mother's Day as she stays in the area.No complaints about the food which was very good.But the service was nothing short of woeful.We finished our main courses and had to wait a good 20 minutes for them to clear the plates.I also said I did not get get any roast potatoes and I was informed that they would tell the kitchen.I never heard again until I was paying the bill when I informed a different server this little indiscretion would told me that they would inform the kitchen!!!!Price was a bit excessive for the day as my Mother basically only wanted 1 course and she had to have 2 or 3 .I don't think we will be back for a while as my Mother was disappointed.

Myself and 3 friends had a lov ely 2 course lunch at a very good price, service excellent and lovely surroundings, definitely will go back

Had Christmas lunch here today with family, fabulous! Lots to choose from on the Christmas menu, the food was excellent and extremely good value for money! The service also was great, the girls were very friendly and efficient. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Have been to navaar hotel bistro many times and have always had a lovely meal the service is excellent and the staff are so friendly

Came here for Father's Day in June, as always the staff are so friendly the food impeccable & the bill small! What more could you ask for, fresh home cooked food. I have never had a bad meal here & I go here all the time I absolutely love the place such a cosy atmosphere with a fire, not too many tables & booking advised. Wide range of meals & the deals are so cheap, a small portion is more than enough. Desserts are fab & they cater for kids.

really nice food offers a deal where you get 2 courses for £12 which is a superb for what you are actually getting

I had quite a few family meals in this hotel and they are first class the staff are first rate and the chefs are great the food cooked to perfection go out of there way to make sure every thing to your perfection will keep going there

Stopped here for a late lunch. The meal was excellent and very affordable. Service was prompt and friendly. Wifi was free and at a good speed. Parking on site

Gosh - a great choice from a bar meal style menu, and very large portions. Really enjoyed the chicken goujons and the unusual stilton and broccoli quiche. Very tasty.

Went for a quick work lunch today. Staff and the service were terrific. Menu was short, easy to read and mostly the point. We had a red hot fire burning next to us which was great. Food was so hot I could also feel the heat off it (bonus for me) Chef made himself known in the dining room which was nice and we could see into the kitchen. I had Mac, chips and peas. There is nothing better than pub favourites done well. My colleague had a huge burger which was "brilliant" apparently. I will be taking the family there!!!

On a visit to our friends (the Tuckwells) in Penicuik, we went on their recommendation and weren't disappointed. Excellent food and friendly staff with an attentive chef (Jim Bob?) for whom nothing was a problem. We had visited the Navaar several years ago and this was a significant improvement. Many thanks. We will be back on our next visit.

This Hotel is situated of the main street running through Penicuik and was a surprise find. The menu is extensive for a place of it's size. But is obviously frequented by the locals as it was very busy but still managed to provide good food and service. The restaurant provides ample portions of food, enough to satisfy most appetites

We went here for my dads 80th birthday lunch, a lunch menu that covered everything that you could want ,the starters were a meal in themselves ,lovely choice ,served very promptly by very pleasant waitresses ,nothing was to much bother for them .The main courses were very hot and delicious , everyone enjoyed their lunch .The only criticism is there is no visible signage out side ,it's a bit hard to find ,unless you know where you are going .

Fabulous food in the Bistro Bar and excellent value for money. Fillet steak is amazing and food is always well cooked and though out. The Specials menu is particularly innovative. Thoroughly recommend.

Have visited four times. Never disappointed. The food is cooked to perfection. Diners can see into the kitchen. Always reassuring! Smaller portions on offer for smaller appetites.Took my brother here for a treat. He ordered the steak and claimed it to be best he'd had in a long time.Staff are pleasant and friendly. Lovely setting with log fire for colder days.Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.It is reasonably priced too.

Can't even believe this place is 7 out of 20!! It should be number 1, the staff & the chef are all extremely friendly. The food is absolutely perfect! I have never had a bad meal & I have been so many times. Always take my son aswell & they are very accommodating & the kids menu is great! The portions are huge, even the small plates are massive! The prices are amazing this place is definitely worth a try!! You won't be disappointed

3 of us called into the Navaar for dinner on spec on Saturday night and we were very impressed.This busy pub/restaurant/hotel is only about a 5 minute walk from the town centre.The large open plan restaurant which is separate from the main bar area was reasonably busy with couples and families dining.Very friendly staff, lots of choice in menu, wine list and good service.I had Steak and Ale pie with usual accompaniments and it was very very good.My missus has Macaroni cheese which was delicious she tells me !The mother in law had chicken stuffed with haggis and again, this was delicious she told me.All home made and served with choice of veg/chips etc(The steak and ale pie was very tender with lovely rich gravy and the accompanying vegetables perfectly cooked ).One real ale on tap and that was spot on.Anyway, 3 main meals, 1 desert, 2 pints and a bottle of nice white wine £51.00 - bargain.Would i go again ? - Yes i will.

Had a lovely Sunday dinner here with friends. Food is pub grub style, beautifully cooked and presented. Portions are on the large size to,say the least! I had the most delicious salmon dish while my companions declared the fillet steak to be the best in town! Wine is reasonably priced and the staff are efficient and friendly. Ideal place for families, roaring fire in winter and lovely Al fresco dining area in summer.

If you want a descent value for money bar meal in pleasant surroundings then you won't go far wrong with the Navaar House Hotel.

Very good home cooking and the smaller helpings on request are welcome as I find it daunting to be faced with a mountain of food on a plate. Chef is excellent and takes a pride in his cooking

It was my mums 80th birthday meal and with my dad requiring gluten free we plumped for the place.As the was ten of us most of the menu was selected i selected the pate for starter which was excellent with the choice of toast or oatcakes for main course i had the roast beef succulent is not far off the mark to describe the beef served with Yorkshire Pud new potatoes and veg,for pudding i had the sticky toffee pudding which i wasn't so keen on ,but everyone to their own . Kids and coeliac's have there own menu my youngest had the macaroni cheese which for a nine year old was polished off which is a rare occasion . Staff were very officiant round every few minutes checking if anything was required the lounge and bar were very clean as were the toilets , although its a bit out of the way i will make a return trip my parents who live in Penicuik have stated they will return praise indeed

This is a family run ,staff all so pleasant ,also spotlessly clean also give the smaller portions to the older generation ,another nice feature is the lovely log fire for the chillier days ,we just keep going back ,it is worth the 30 minute journey.

staff and service was really good but food was only ok to be honest. Lasagne was really salty but everyone else enjoyed food although not outstanding. Price was reasonable given quality......would I return. Probably not

Really enjoyed our meal here and it was very good value. Would recommend and we will certainly be back.

Visited on midweek evening for an early dinner at 1830. There was only one other family there and when we left at about 2000 the place was empty - I was told it was busier at weekends when booking is advised. The restaurant does have comfortable well spaced tables and a large log burner which gave a good heat on a cold night.We started with haggis in batter with whisky cream sauce - delicious haggis with a very light tempura-style batter but the sauce was a little salty (personal taste). Second starter was cheesy garlic bread - basically cheese on toast but nice.Mains were haddock & chips x 2 - very good, very fresh good sized fish and thick cut chips. Also chicken stuffed with haggis which was wrapped in bacon. Again very good but the same salty sauce.Service was attentive but not overbearing. Overall, good quality basic pub grub and things have improved since our last visit in 2013. On the downside, there is definitely an all-pervading smell of cooking oil throughout the room and I wouldn't want a table near the serving hatch where things could be a little overpowering I think. Value for money is pretty good.We would go back.

My wife and I went with two friends yet again for our special meal. Not disappointed, food was great very hot, lots of it I am a big eater and I was full.Like the fact that the chef comes out and asks if every thing is ok we like that.Girl serving the meals very good ,they even put my surprise flowers in water.Sorry we kept you late girls.

Good pub food from a good choice on the menu and at very reasonable prices served in a pleasant dining area with tables well spaced out. The Staff were friendly and helpful. First time here but we will be back

My friends and I go to the Navaar every year for our Christmas dinner. There are eight of us and they arrange for us to have a small private room. Their food is very good, but there is one little problem. You come out smelling of grease. I don't think they have an extractor fan. This problem should be remedied asap.

We eat here often and have never been disappointed with either the food or the service. The staff are always very attentive and pleasant. Comfortable surroundings indoors and out. A varied menu at very reasonable prices.

Nice place to go for a quiet friendly meal. Never had a bad meal there and will recommend it to friends

Been to the Navaar on two occasions in the past month and the food was of good quality and the portions were excellent.the staff were very cheerful with a smile and showed you to your table. Every thing on both visits was excellent and look forward to my next visit.

Fairly typical pub food menu served in a pleasant dining area with tables well spaced out (so you're not bumping elbows with the next table).Service was very friendly - two cheery girls taking care of everybody effortlessly and efficiently.The food was really good (salmon and prawn coconut curry especially nice) and at £12 for two course great value. You're certainly not short changed with the portions which are large enough to satisfy Desparate Dan.All in all top notch grub at a sensible price.

We decided to have lunch out today, and noticed the decking area from the road and thought it looked quite nice. We went in for a couple of drinks and ordered two roast beef dinners, we weren't disappointed. Everything was lovely very tasty had a lovely desert, service here was very good with opportunity to sit in restaurant or outside. We chose to sit outside where it was quiet and the weather was warm and sunny, we will be back here.

Visited for dinner after a long day gardening, we hadn't booked and as our table needed to be prepared we were offered a seat in the bar to look at the menu. Our orders were taken from there and we were taken through to the restaurant once our food was about to be served.We both had the rib eye steak which was tasty and cooked just as we had asked. It was clearly good quality meat and had been prepared by a competent chef.Good, well prepared traditional meals. Thoroughly enjoyed it :-) and will go back again.

Went here for a family meal and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Not the biggest menu in the world but covers the usual pub favourites. The food was good but nothing to rave about but the value for money was great, 3 courses for £14! You can't complain at that price.

Celebrated a friends birthday here. Great service and food. Thanks chef! What a lovely lass is Kellie our bar maid. Nothing too much trouble. Service with a smile and bubbly laughter all round from the staff. Will be back. for more of same.

I had my third turkey dinner of the Christmas season, this time at the Navaar House Hotel, and it was the best :-) Four ladies in our group opted for smaller portions at a reduced price ( but those portions were still substantial) and two ladies had the normal sized portions. The turkey was tender, moist and full of flavour. The ladies who had the beef said it was the best they'd had in years. The chef came out from the kitchen at the end of the evening and chatted to the guests at each table about their meal, which impressed me.Waitress service was friendly and well timed (not overly attentive which can be intrusive.)Excellent value for money. I will be back.

I had a three course meal here and everything my friends and I had was excellent. My meat was very tender and everything was cooked well.The prices are very good too. The staff were very efficient and although there were a lot of us they brought out the food promptly. Nobody had to wait. I would certainly recommend the Navaar and will be returning.
