Maybe we came at a bad time. Place was empty at 6 pm. The fish was cooked from frozen and was not great. My son had the big breakfast and sausages looked a bit cheap. I had huntsman chicken which was ok but not great. Chairs were wooden and uncomfortable. Suggest they invest in cushions at least, maybe some soft music. Sorry.

Staying at Sherwood Pines and thought we would try the Robin Hood for Dinner. Lovely food, reasonable priced and only a 5 minute drive. Would definitely reccomend.

We called and reserved a table for 7 people and a baby, the staff were very nice on the phone and when 3 people couldn’t make it from our group the staff were understanding and still treated us very well. Our waitress, sadly didn’t catch her name, was perfect. She was nice and took really good care of us from start to finish! The food was really good, compliments to the chef, and the price was reasonable! Will definitely come again, highly recommend this small but brilliant place.

Popped in for lunch after visiting Sherwood Forest, had an all day breakfast, they have just got a new chef and the food was well cooked and delicious. The landlord was very friendly and made us feel welcome. It was quiet when we visited which is a shame, as the old adage goes “use it or lose it”!!

Food looks like it came straight out of freezer and straight to the oven. The steak and ale pie was okay although the veggies were boiled from frozen so they were a but soggy and tasteless. The fish and chips was okay. Chips were slightly over cooked. The cottage pie was good. All in all a pleasant experience but I’m afraid I wouldn’t come back if I was in the area again. The old gentleman who served us was polite though and friendly.

Went for our Christmas party 16 of us and the last time we went when they were doing the eat out to help out it was very nice but sorry to say I didn't like it very much.i had black and blue burger and there was hardly any Stilton on at all,small French fries and I should have had coleslaw but that wasn't on and I didn't realise until when I looked back at the menu later.some others hadn't had coleslaw either and when I went to pay and mentioned it he sarcastically said you should have said 3 hours ago,rude.they also hadn't got some popular items in stock either.the chips looked overdone on others plates too.it felt an expensive meal which was just very average,robin hood you really need to up your game as this could be a fab pub.

First time visiting here for a few years and we were so disappointed. Sunday carvery we were told was very good so we thought we would have a change from our usual (Maypole at Wellow) The meat although well cooked was almost nonexistent, three tiny skinny slices. Lumpy mash was awful Roast parsnips were disgusting, rock hard and tasteless Sweet corn and peas ? Who does this outside of school? Gravy was like water, and tasteless Cabbage was well undercooked, and tasteless. Some kind of an attempt at an onion/leek sauce which was awful, watery and tasteless. They ran out of trays for service and the “chef” asked the waitress to collect some, which she did, then “chef” proceeded to serve plated “food” on said trays without washing or even wiping them ! With so many alternatives locally the Robin needs to raise its game, we definitely won’t be back. The Maypole, The Alders, Rose Cottage, Launays and the Bistro to name a Few are miles ahead, miles and miles.

Went to have a meal this Sunday not knowing they were doing carvery only the 1st one since covid and they got it so wrong the food wasn't bad but they just ran out of everything no Yorkshire pud 20 minute wait then no roast potatoes then the mash all a good 20 min wait then to top it off no gravy another 10 minute wait no mint sauce our food was so cold by the time we got it back to the table and at almost £11 per head this wasn't acceptable and no other menu on offer just very poor.

We were recommended this pub by someone we met at out campsite, we really enjoyed it here, I had the hunters chicken, my husband had the fish and chips, my son had a kids pizza and chips, my daughter had the cheesy pasta but she didn't like it so we ordered her some chips instead which they kindly didn't charge us for. We were served by Maisie who was very welcoming, polite and very helpful. Next time we come to the area we will visit again ❤️ Thank you x

Popped here on a whim after a last minute family trip to Sherwood Forest. Made a snap judgement and almost left based on the half empty car park and strange taps in the toilets (which really could do with sorting out). I’m so very glad we stayed. What an absolute gem of a place. Lovely friendly staff, especially the guy at the bar and Mandy, our waitress. We could slightly tell they were a little stressed out but they were nothing but professional and gave us all the time we needed, serving us in a timely manner with a smile. And the food was brilliant. We had the carvery and not a scrap was left. Beef was slightly pink in the middle, pork perfect and the veggie sausages were very tasty. Both young children stuffed their faces. Every single thing was cooked perfectly. Hats off to the chef! Thank you all for a lovely lunch! Will happily visit again when we next pop to Sherwood.

I'd give this place 1 star for food, only cos I can't post it with none. Booked a table for quarter past 6 (I'd asked for 6 o'clock), me, hubby and 3 kids. They advertise kids eat for £1 with every adult main. Ordered food at 25 past 6, at 7.10 hubby went and asked where our food was... Sorry, one chef left, another came on and there has been a mixup and food will be soon. 10 mins later food arrived, 1 small slice of pizza and a plate of chips for 1 child??? Other kids meals were average, as was hubby's fish and chips. I had to ask for a steak knife for my hunter's chicken!!! Ended up not eating it cos it looked dodgy. Got offered free drinks, or free kids desserts but decided to pass on that as kids needed to get to bed. Gave us kids meals for free, offered ours free as well but didn't want them to be able to say we had complained to get free food. Will DEFINITELY not be back

We decided to stop by whilst driving past so didn't have a booking but were found a table for two. The food was great, huge portion of fish and chips and well presented, staff very welcoming and we were served by Leesha who was lovely. We have been here a few times now, the afternoon tea was especially memorable as the cakes were delicious and freshly baked. Looking forward to our next visit.

Arrived in the middle of a housing estate after following the published postcode! Eventually found the pub and to be honest it looked so so from the outside. We were starving so went in anyway to find a table of 3 already sitting (they were served within 10 minutes) and a family of 8 that had ordered and were waiting for their food. We arrived at 7.02 ordered drinks straight away. At 7.10 we ordered and yet at 7.55 still no food but we had been told when booking that they needed the table back by 9pm!! The family in front of us were served at about 7.35pm. Our food eventually arrived a little after 8pm. We had read the reviews and apparentlt the burgers were amazing so my son and I ordered the classic burger with bacon and cheese. Unfortunately they were both very burnt when they arrived and we were both very disappointed at the size of them. Very small. The chips were very nice and as the kids meals were only a pound per paying adul the little one had two kids portions of bangers and mash with no questions asked. Cost us £55 for food plus drinks of 3 pints diet coke and 2 pints coors. Can't really complain at that for value.

It's hard to know where to start, with the fantastic food, or the incredible service. The staff were very welcoming as soon as the 6 of us walked in. I myself work in hospitality so I have an eye for good service, so a special mention must go to Leesha she was faultless despite seeming to be busy and always on the go. None of us could pick any fault with the food even my fussy children loved it. So a big thanks to all at the Robin Hood

Upon arrival we were told we had to wait for our table because the pub was ‘unusually busy’ - this was the first lie. There was one male drinking a warm beer in the corner. When we were finally seated one member of staff stood over us, removed her mask and burped; this is when we should have left as it only went down hill from there. I was charged £6 for a tomato salad that was vulgar then waited 1 and half hour for a roast dinner - no veg because the kitchen had ran out. After paying the £200 we saw burp last and friends enjoying a large roast dinner with all the trimmings. Hope you enjoyed ladies.

Awful. Went for a roast as part of my hen do based on the excellent reviews we had read, to say we were disappointed is an understatement. The food took a very long time to arrive and when it did finally arrive - all came out at different times. One meal wasn’t even delivered as they had forgotten to make it. More than one meal was missing Yorkshire pudding missing and when questioned, we were told it would arrive in a few minutes - it did not. We were also told they had run out of the extra veg we had ordered and so had to pay for meals that were incomplete. Then as we left the restaurant, the staff were sat eating their food with veg and Yorkshire puddings!There was only a single slice of beef. They ran out of Heineken after serving 2 glasses as well as the wine we were drinking, after a single bottle.They knew we were coming yet appeared to not cater to our group size. Do not recommend!

Very sad that a special lunch was marred by such poor service and planning for a large group. Running out of Heineken and then Pinot Grigio is ridiculous. Then running out of vegetables and Yorkshire puddings only to see the staff tucking into the same as we left. There was several repeated requests for cutlery and condiments as well as the additional vegetables ordered. A request for spoons to serve the few vegetables we did have was met with “I’ll bring them out with rest of the food which isn’t ready yet”. Visiting the area we relied on the reviews to book for a table of 13 for a hen party. Sadly they did not reflect the experience we had today. I would not recommend this pub for a Sunday lunch.

We went to have a roast today, we were greeted with a burp. I was very shocked and sad when this happened as it was completely mental. 13 of us ordered food however only 12 meals could be cooked. The roasts came with no vegetables, so I personally had a slice of beef and half a potato. Kept asking for vegetables however they informed us there was no vegetables in the premises, the menu was a lie and I fell for it.

I come here with my family for a sunday roast and I'm sorry to say it was not the best. I had the the garlic mushroom starter with ciabatta. It was presented in a bowl with the creamy garlic mushroom over the caiabatta, the caiabatta was soggy as it had not been toasted.I also had the lamb dinner and it come out u a puddle.of watery gravey. Mash was cold and lumpy, cauliflower chesse was very plain not chessy one bit. We was not given and gravey jug or mint sause to go with the lamb. There was no stuffing with the pork roast and some of the veg was overly cooked. The table staff where great, was checking that we where fine and very polite. Rating food 4 out of 10 Staff 8 out of 10 Facilities I would give 4 out of 10 This place is stuck in a time warp and very dated

Went for the American Night which had been booked for months. Tables were nicely decorated and menu was good. No music though (we assumed this was because the night happened to clash with the footie) Ordered 3 steaks and a burger. All delicious. Two of our party had a side of ribs with the steak which they said were amazing. Although all were completely stuffed from the mains, we did have desserts. Two of us had waffle stacks (yummy), one a chocolate brownie and one banana split. All divine! The lady serving us was lovely and made us feel welcome, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be going again!

Came here yesterday as we was passing, table service was a joke constantly having to ask for things! They gave us bread with no butter then when I asked for butter they put it in the microwave and it was like water! We ordered the fish board sharer for 2 people but only put 3 things each on ? The fish was absolutely disgusting the batter tasted like it had been sat for months! The prawns tasted and smelt like they had been sat in mucky dishwater! Complained about it and the waiter said a full refund but when my step mum went to pay they only tuck £10 of the bill I wasn’t there to say anything as I felt that sick I went to my car but even to only knock £10 of something what was so vile is disgusting! Even the mushroom soup for starter didn’t taste right. If I’m poorly after this I will not be happy. Learn to respect your customers please.

We visited after a walk round the local forest, we sat down and ordered some drinks, some of the soft drinks were flat so had to send them back, but they were refreshed quickly, the lady in the dark hair was really helpful however the lady with the glasses on had no courtesy to our table or even spoke to us, we had our cutlery on a plate just plonked on our table no courtesy to say please hand them out yourselves, I think she needs a lot of support in terms of customer service. We ordered the steak sandwich x4 and found that it was very chewy to the point we couldn’t eat it and had to send them back, we had been told the steak had been taken off the menu and we ordered the the fish finger sandwich, that came after some of our party had finished eating, when we bit into the fish finger there wasn’t much fish and 90% batter, which was disappointing. This was the first time my family had been over to Nottinghamshire this year and we were eager to try Robin Hood for lunch but we were really disappointed and felt we didn’t enjoy the meal all together due to the complications with some of our food.

Food was absolutely amazing and the staff was lovely, only down fall is portion sizes are seriously small. The amount of mash potato given with a Sunday dinner is less than my young child has on hers. That’s the only thing that lets it down is the small portion sizes, food is very nice though but nobody wants to go for a meal and leave hungry.

On Saturday we arrived and after no sign of anyone for 20 minutes (signage said table service) eventually ventured inside to be told all tables reserved despite 40% tables empty. No “reserved” anywhere. Later booked for today (Sunday) originally for 6.30pm but told by the guy on the phone they shut at 8pm, I said we would make it 6pm so we didn’t need to rush our meal. He took the booking without comment. Turned up for our booked time of 6pm to be told the kitchen closed at 5.30pm. Absolutely shambolic way to run a business after having all these months to prepare for reopening.

Our first visit whilst staying in a holiday lodge down the road. We had read positive reviews on here and were not disappointed. Probably the best steak & ale pie I've eaten. My lad had fish & chips; his fish was beautiful. Both came with skin-on hand cut chips from real potatoes (not frozen meal killers). My wife had a burger with fries, also really good with a superb coleslaw.Our waitress, Kenzi, was keen to make sure we were looked after. Great service. We'll definitely be back if we're down here again. Hopefully, post-virus, the brewery will then be supplying the whole range of beers and it would be 5 Star for that too.

Everything was so fresh, roast vegetables were delightful, the Yorkshire puddings homemade and cooked to perfection and the meat wowzers! I had gammon and my husband a mix of turkey and gammon I didn't want it to end. We will definitely be going again and the place deserves more bums on seats for sure.

I dont normally clear my plate but it was too good not to.The waitress Kenzie was lovely and made sure we didnt run out of drinks.We will be regulars now.I think if the pub made the dining area abit more cozy this place will be packed. It deserves to be

This was the second time I had dined here and although I thought my first visit was terrific the food this time was even better, and Mandy the waitress completed the excellent experience. The beef steak pie was the best I have ever tasted.

We came here on the 10th for a meal and all I can say is WOW, the staff was so nice, welcoming and bent over backwards for us (40th birthday) the food was absolutely gorgeous and as for the portions, I struggled and I can eat! The prices for the food are well deserved if not more, all fresh home cooked food, no frozen food in sight so it was so refreshing to see. I/we shall all be back. To everyone who served us I thank you all for an amazing night and one we shall remember. Credit to the kitchen and a credit to Edwinstowe

This is a place we have driven past many times but with the current issues facing local business we wanted to try it and support them a little. From the outside the pub looks more dated than some but don't be put off, when you are not getting customers and covid has impacted your income how can you invest. We had starters of garlic mushrooms, much bigger portion than expected, nice with creamy sauce, very tasty. Then fish finger sandwich and grilled chicken sandwich , both came with real cooked chips and salad, portions were very generous and we struggled to finish, the fish was battered fish and didn't taste pre frozen or watery, the chicken was good quality and thickly sliced, ciabatta soft and fresh, very nice food. The menu is small but enough choice for everyone, better a small menu than to hold a wide variety of foods which will go off if no customers are coming in at the moment. We had the mint choc cheese cake to share and it was delicious, smooth and not too sickly with crumbled mint choc aero on top, yummy.The service was good and we will definitely go again. And the prices are very reasonable, I've paid twice as much for way lesser quality. The pub is out of the way so suffers from lack of foot traffic and is dated in décor but places like this need local support to get back on their feet so give them a try.

Called yesterday for breakfast before work we walked in to no one around I had to shout for someone to appear , A young lady asked us to sign in and she showed us to a table we were the only 2 there on the table next to us we’re last nights empty glasses , maybe that was a sign that I should have walked out , I ordered the vegetarian breakfast she took our order then came back and said chef said the lorry that brought the veggie sausages didn’t have them on !! So asked if I wanted a burger !!Err no thanks I opted for a extra fried egg when it arrived it took 2 napkins to mop up all the grease it was swimming in , the hash browns had been over cooked and also very greasy as was the mushroom the beans were cold it was just awful , the toast hadn’t been no where near a toaster and my friends bacon wasn’t anywhere near cooked enough, if the person responsible for serving this up is a chef then I think your business is in trouble, £6.50 for this is a joke . Never again .

I don’t like to make a habit out of complaining or leaving bad reviews as I understand the difficulties that staff and management can go through, however this morning’s visit was too poor to ignore unfortunately. Won’t go into to all issues as probably too many to list. •Missing 1 element of a medium breakfast to be told it wasn’t meant to be on there anyway (Had to point the waitress to the menu to show I was right.) •Daughter had porridge and chose golden syrup (as per the menu) what was served was definitely not this (something fruity) so opted for honey instead which was the told was out of stock. Ended up with a few chopped berries as a third option. Didn’t eat it as the porridge was then too plain •Eggs were obvs very old as the white had spread so flat. Also could tell it had been grilled from the top. Made for a very odd texture. • No hash browns were available so we were given chargrilled sliced new potatoes as a substitute???The manager was very apologetic and assured me that this wasn’t ‘the norm’ and removed one of the breakfasts and the porridge from the bill. In hindsight I should have argued at least one more meal be removed as more food was left than eaten. Unfortunately we won’t be returning, which is a real shame as the photos I had seen on Facebook showed the food to look really tasty. Too many options nowadays to have such a bad experience and still go again

Stopped for lunch before continuing a journey. The service and food were much appreciated. The home cooked chips were amazing and apparently so was the steak pie

Stopped by for a business meeting off the beaten track. Good Covid regulation which is important now days. The food was just amazing. Trio of pork was perfect for me, my colleague had pie and chips. All home made and excellent portions. Will be calling back in.

We come done from London for a weekend away and went to the Robin Hood for food on Friday, the food was amazing, so tasty and fresh, it was so good that we also went in there Saturday evening for food and booked ourselves in for Sunday lunch before heading home, staff are friendly and welcoming, even the kitchen staff popped their heads out to have a little chat, if we come back for a trip again we will definitely be going back into the Robin Hood

We phoned and made a booking for the Wednesday after the Covid Eat Out to Help Out offer had ended. The pub was very quite, just one other family. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.My son and I ordered the Rump Steaks, which as we recalled from a couple years ago when visiting the area were excellent. The Chef lived up to oir expectations, the Rump Steaks were very well selected and cooked just as requested. As a family of 5, we thoroughly enjoyed chosen meals and will definately return again when visiting the area.

I thought I would do my bit and support local business especially as this Pub had been shut for while and reopened with new management. Lots of what looked like good photos of food and what looked like good feedback We went tonight at 5pm and were the only people there and the food was probably the worst I’ve had when eating out. I didn’t send it back even though the chips and fish had been fried within an inch of its life. I paid the bill mentioning the chips were inedible and we just left and I’m afraid to say won’t be going back.

We visited the Robin Hood on sat eve and what a meal we had! It was superb! We then went back the next day for the Sunday Roast which didn’t disappoint! The staff go above and beyond for you nothing is too much trouble so friendly and polite. We will def be returning soon. Go take a look at the Robin Hood see for yourself or even book yourself a table! A hidden gem without a doubt!

Me and my girlfriend arrived at this premesis to have a nice drink and relax with obvious social distance measures, apart from the clear lack of face masks entirely, there was satisfactory service for an hour, after that the bar service was totally fine apart from the odd table paying for their tab. After the first hour or two, no noticeable change. After this however, despite the advertised license hours, I returned to the bar, just shortly after 11pm, as the entire staff were sat drinking alcohol and the bar was completely unattended, the owner/landlord as I was later notified, despite the licenced hours told me that there "would be no more beer" to which I responded "okay then, fair enough, then what about spirits?" to which he simply replied "no" even though the pumps had not been turned off, and also as a bartender myself I know this would not be the case. He refused me service despite the face I was completely sober, and he was serving the kitchen staff whatever they asked, and was drinking a pint of what appeared to be Fosters himself. He did not at any point whatsoever call or even shout or indicate last orders were in place, no bell was rung, no vocalisations took place, and obviously I would have not come to the bar expecting to be served if this was the case. It was 11.15pm and by his own advertisement he should have stopped serving at 11.30pm, despite this, he made no indication that he was unwilling to sell alcohol at this time. He simply refused service, I was taken aback by this and promptly left, and just as I left, he started turning the pumps off, and then and only then started breaking down the bar, something that if "last orders" would have been called, he would have started earlier, considering that the pub itself shuts at 12:30am. For food, fair enough the place isn't bad, but for bar service, it's like they have no idea how to run a pub.

We booked a few days before. This was my first time here in a long time and because of the recent reviews I was really looking forward to it (let's face it, having Sunday dinner cooked for you is brilliant). It didn't disappoint: seated quickly, staff lonely and friendly, food delicious. There was a problem with unavailability of a gf option of bread with a starter for one of us, but apologies were profuse and sincere, and the cost of the starter was taken off the bill. We said there really was no need to do this, but they insisted, hence the 5star review! It all felt very safe and very well organised. The food was absolutely gorgeous and there was plenty of it. The selection of vegetables which came out was fab too: cauli cheese, broccoli, peas and red cabbage. The meat was lovely and I have to say, the best Yorkshire puds I've ever had (sorry mum, better than yours!). All in all, a lovely time was had by us all and we'll most definitely be back!

It doesn’t seem right me giving a review like this,today I called for lunch I had a ham salad it came but no ham,it was eventually brought to my table and the ham arrived in the smallest of bowls and it was all shredded I just said I’m not coming here again.not once was I asked would I like butter for my bread or asked if would like salt pepper vinegar salad cream the waitress didn’t have a clue,in a world of her own. I went to pay on my card and I’m waiting for my receipt as I didn’t ask for one it was to late, I always thought when you pay by card you are automatically given a receipt it was when you get the government discount.i don’t think the ham salad could have been any worse CRAP it was less than basic

Had a fabulous lunch. 2 courses for £11 plus 50% off with government scheme! Garlic mushrooms were creamy and delicious. Salmon was well cooked. Fish and chips were crispy with proper tartare sauce. Lasagne was huge and so tasty. Staff were friendly and attentive. Could do with a makeover to match the lovely food. You deserve to do well guys. Shame we were only passing while on holiday or I'd be back tomorrow!

Stopped by after a visit to Rufford Abbey. Boy I'm glad we did. Despite the concerns over Covid, we need not have feared. Very professional approach to safety and hygiene. As for the food....Delicious. My wife w/o both had the beef & Yorkshire with all the trimmings. The vegetable selection was great and the meat cooked perfectly and Prime cut too . We'll definitely be back. Thanks to all the staff for the warm welcome and polite efficient service.

Hands down one of the best roast dinners I’ve ever had. Absolutely faultless from the quality of the food to the epic portions! I’m never disappointed and the staff are so efficient and friendly. It’s worth the drive to come here!

Recently I’m new to the area and am trying out new pubs to go to with part of my rugby team. Came here for a couple drinks after one of my games and was pleasantly surprised. Service was great and quick from the 2 lovely bartenders and was relatively cheap. Would recommend to the rest of the team to come again.

On this visit we were served by “Jessie” , we were treated to the same great service on another busy Sunday. Fab Niamh was amazing as our server, she was fast polite and throughout the busy lunchtime service there wasn’t a moment that she stood still.
