Tambo Lounge in Newark and Sherwood

Didn't eat, so can't comment. Just a pleasant chat with friends and family over a drink. Felt comfortable and welcomed by pleasant staff.

The best place to eat in Newark. Friendly people, fabulous food and great atmosphere. Highly recommended 😁

Only popped in because my friend and I wanted a coffee and stayed for the food defo recognize the talent in the kitchen I had one of the bugers and now I only want a burger in a brioche bun well done chef!

Great food, friendly staff and fair pricing. Such a great place for food and drink anytime of the day.

This is a great little place for food and drink. Great for families or couples. Clean and tidy cafe bar, great atmosphere. Good value for money. Helpful staff.

This is the best gluten free menu I have ever had the pleasure of reading. And the food is delicious. I thoroughly recommend Tambo Lounge

The kids enjoyed a couple of tapas plates. The have a vegan menu but it used to be better. I like the quirky atmosphere

Lovely comfortable place to chill. Staff are always helpful and friendly.

went in today and waited at the ‘wait to be seated’ sign but no one greeted us despite a member of staff sitting working facing us at a table and not acknowledging us. We sat down and ordered via the qr code and our food and cutlery was brought to us without a word spoken, just got a really miserable vibe. We visited at a very quiet time, and service was very quick, however they got one of our mains wrong (mistakes happen) but because of the vibe of the servers we felt awkward asking them to sort it. After we had eaten we had to leave quickly as there were two kids on their own (who hadn’t bought anything) shouting in the restaurant and being antisocial. when we left one of them shouted something incredibly rude and upsetting to us. I don’t know why the staff didn’t ask them to leave as they were not paying customers and they were causing an issue, but the staff clearly couldn’t care less. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone if you want decent service

Very good about allergens, some vegan options, good service, food and drink was high quality. Not cheap but worth the price

The service was a bit caotic. We ordered our food and drink through the app at the same time, but everything arrived one by one, which was brought to us with a different member of the staff. 🤷‍♂️ Churros were the best. Love that the place is dog friendly.

£5.35 for a soda water cordial and kids carton was terrible! Staff more bothered about going out for a fag than helping! £10 for a small slice of ciabatta bread for the smashed avodado!

absolutly terrible steak frites i was sick all night

This place never fails to deliver. My personal favourite is a fish finger sandwich but the menu is extensive. Go try it out. You normally don't need to book just walk in and find a table and you can order and book from the table if you choose to.

It's not a pub, but it doesn't feel like a cafe, and I found it a bit noisy. But the food was really good and not expensive. Worth a visit for lunch.

We have just held our wedding reception at the Tambo Lounge and I cannot say enough good things about it, the whole staff went above and beyond for us, Ann especially was incredible and couldn’t do enough for us. Our guests commented on how lovely the place was and the food was incredible, so many of our guests said they will be returning ! Even our cake maker said he loved it and will return for a meal, the whole process was so easy and affordable compared to most wedding receptions so would recommend to anyone who wants great food and a cosy relaxing and intimate setting. Thank you so much again to Ann, Mark and the Tambo Team. Mollie & Louis x

Very interesting and varied menu. Not tried many things yet but what I have had had been delicious

The food was excellent but sum of it was a bit cold..apart from that would eat here again

The food was amazing,especially the garlic and parmigiano chips Staff were very friendly and helpful Definitely will be back soon

Crazy busy.... went on a Saturday afternoon to find it mobbed. Then, so was town. Food was good, but service was slow due to volume. Good place for dogs, families and all the important friends.

Amazing food and great staff. The breakfast was huge. Produce was 2nd to none! Good job

Nice place, customer service good , food could be better portion for the money

Lovely drinks and deserts. Can't wait to come back.

Chilled and friendly as always. Good service, handy to order via the app too.

Had Avocado brunch, lovely with pot of tea. Son had Lounge burger which he scored 10 out of 10.

5 star for this popular place. Food great and not too over priced, staff friendly and seating always available. Been a few times now and use it to meet friends to have a bite to eat and catch up as the atmosphere is great, location is great and overall very pleasant place. Would recommend this to all ages, and is suitable for wheelchair access as on street level.

Visted today on first impressions nice clean tidy place .Had 2 breakfasts and 2 pots of tea unfortunately took cups back as they were dirty asked for 2 clean one's but person behind bar argued one was clean eventually got 2 clean one's. No brown bread with breakfast had to have white,when breakfast came looked very nice and good quality unfortunately very cold beans,tomato, bacon ,sausage apart from egg and hash browns they were the only things warm.Girls asked us if everything was ok told her no she said tell the chef but nothing done had to eat cold I'm diabetic very disappointing 😕 so was my wife.

Lovely dinner today with my lady. Food was really nice thank you

Really like this place as do my kids.good food, good ambience , good cocktails

Food is lovely here, a gem in Newark. The twisted club sandwich is delicious x

Awesome place to go for a drink!!

Nice vibe and serve food late compared to other places nearby. Really enjoyed and lovely atmosphere

Thank you for hosting our second Lidl meal for us all..Service was fantastic and food was lovely.

Ordered flatbread, chicken wings and I forgot what’s that😂 but all of them taste good 👍🏻👍🏻 The cocktail “English garden” was amazing~

Lovely food. Great cocktails. Great staff. A bit pricey but worth it.

Overall amazing but the food was outstanding

We stumbled upon this place and I'm so glad we did. Brennan (apologies if this is incorrect) was very attentive, very helpful and polite to me, my mother and my young daughter. He even bought my daughter a teddy to play with whilst we were eating. The food was quick, reasonably priced and very tasty. We will definitely be visiting again!

Great atmosphere, lovely food just a tad on the cold side. Great gluten free option available would come again.

Great breakfast to be had Good value for money Service friendly and prompt.

The food wad lovely. I had the cowboy burger with beef brisket on it was delicious! It came with homemade coleslaw and fries.

Always get a good tasty meal, plenty of choice for all tastes

A little on the pricey side for some things, but you do get what you pay for with the food

Great food with good selection.

Came here for a light lunch. The menu is full of creative recipes. A combination of traditional and exotic dishes. I had the moroccan aubergine flatbread. Absolutely delicious

Fantastic food lovely atmosphere.

We first saw the Menu in a restaurant window ,it was Extensive and we said d it was a shame we could eat there as we had our dog ,so wandered off and I noticed another door with the entrance to the tiled area inside a a glasses area saying that DOGS WELCOME so we sat down and the waitress said there was water and gave our dog and treat too, the service was very good and two lovely people served us with a smile

Dropped in for a coffee this morning. Was "greeted" by a very surly person behind the bar. Order brought to the table by someone equally unfriendly. A smile when dealing with the public costs nothing! Makes one begrudge frequenting an establishment. Will not return! In stark contrast to the Cosy Club (sister company I believe) which I went to earlier in the week, and where I received a warm, polite and hospitable welcome.

Tambo ticked all our boxes this morning! A hearty vegan breakfast, proper coffee and dog friendly! Had an epic vegan brunch that will see us both through the day and Charlie enjoyed his dog treat and water from the bar. So sad that we really didn’t have room for any cake. Thanks so much!

Decent food, served quickly. Very dog friendly, which is really appreciated.

Lovely place and the burger was excellent

Great food, nice price, lovely staff. Will definitely be going back.

Perfectly adequate. Decent enough food, decent enough service. If you're passing pop in.

Great food. Not very busy on a Friday night. Can order on the app

This is a great place to eat 👌. They cater to all dietary requirements and the food is super tasty! It's often busy but the staff manage this well.

Great food Great service Great decor Love coming here for a bit of food with the kids or a few pints with friends. Good selection of beers and the food is always top notch. Probably the nicest looking place to have a drink in Newark

The food was lovely. Great that you can take in a well behaved dog 🐕 with you loved that. All of the Cocktails are a bit overpriced for size especially espresso martini. Lovely sized place however and plenty of room and good vibes and went mid week early evening and quiet. Four people just under £80 for 4 mains and one alcoholic drink.

A great place for daytime or evenings out. Food from breakfast, brunch, lunch, cakes and evening meals it has loads of choice and some lovely items. Cocktails are lovely, full bar service. It is a big venue lots of tables and chairs and a few sofas, relaxed atmosphere. You wait at the front to be seated on entering. Service can be slow when busy but staff are friendly and helpful. Food and drinks are consistently good. Flat breads, tapas, burgers etc. all great. Nice venue, fairly lively atmosphere.

If you are looking for polite customer care and a great environment look around in Newark. I sat on a table two guys were cleaning the tables, they saw me but I was totally ignored, not even a smile. I went to the bar and a girl who was on the till was super cold and grumpy. I asked for the soup of the day and she replied in a rude way : “we don’t have it!!!” And looked down and started to do something else. Friday, May 10th lunchtime at 12:15 and zero soups? Really!? And why not answer it in a more professional and friendly way? Advice to management: train your staff properly because the place is nice but this kind of behavior is unacceptable.

Popped in here for lunch with our Labradoodle. Friendly staff usual good GF options that are a hallmark of the lounges. Will definitely return next time we’re in Newark.

This was 1st the first time i have been here. Meet my daughter here for breakfast. Excellent all round... great breakfast, great service and lovley atmosphere around the place.🙂🙂🙂

Only had coffee but it was prompt service and hot. Lovely

The burger I had was nice. Could've done with more chips, my friends noodles lack sauce. All in all was a nice meal and would go back

Lovely place only called in for a drink will defo revisit

We visited at 5pm on a Saturday, we did get a table for 2 but we were lucky as the restaurant was nearly full. We ordered via the QR code on the table, drinks came quickly and the food around 10 mins later. I had the vegan Caribbean cauliflower curry and my partner had the vegan bang bang cauliflower. Both were excellent, the curry was mildly spicy with lime rice, the best vegan curry I've ever had. Sadly 3 out of 4 of the vegan desserts were unavailable but my partner had the warm chocolate brownie which he described as delicious. The atmosphere was pleasant, the staff were polite and attentive and the prices are average. We would definitely visit again.

Just went in for a snack, and a beer both of which were good and we enjoyed the atmosphere, cleverly busy and private.

Very friendly staff and good service.

I love this place but just recently the customer service off some of the staff is atrocious, my friend booked a table for eight and when we arrived the table wasn't reserved, the girl/lady that we first spoke to was not helpful and quite rude, we had an email with the booking but she wasn't interested, if it wasn't for the other member of staff who was there we would probably still be waiting. There were no half pint glasses available,it wasn't busy when one of us went to the bar we said it's because they were all on our table, nobody came to clear them up, food came out at different times so we all didn't eat together. We had a great time in the end but think customer service needs working on

I ordered a chicken meal and it was burnt did not want to make a fuss

Great place for drink an cake lovely feel to the place xx my granddaughter loved her tea an cake xx

Lively and convivial venue serving pub fair food with a tapas-y twist. Reasonably priced, good fun and no complaints about the food. Also very family friendly.

Can't fault this place. A lovely place to spend an afternoon. Food is always fantastic, great choice of options. Service is quick and friendly. Atmosphere is wonderful, even when busy.

Cleaner than was, staff now dressed respectable & not like teenagers down the park! Much improved 👏

Really disappointed..portion size for what you pay is ridiculous.would not recommend won’t be back.you should never pay £49 for food and leave hungry.

This place is great, the food is lovely and different to the standard pub fayre. We took my partner's mother there as a "Mother's Day" treat and I have never seen her eat so much! It's dog friendly too, there's bowls and a supply of fresh water on the bar and doggy treats too. The whole place is so welcoming we can't fault it. It's all on one level so it's wheelchair accessible. My partner's mother left her mobile chair outside but it would have been possible for her to take it inside easily.

Very pleasant, nipped in for a cuppa and a bacon buttie before we got the train to London. Comfy and loads of room .

Has a relaxed atmosphere. Staff are always pleasant and the food is tasty.

We visit regularly. Love the atmosphere in here. Food always great from breakfast to tapas. Great choice of drinks. The team are really welcoming, Sally is awesome!

Very comfortable place to meet friends.

Not sure why I've not been here before !!! Ideal place for something to eat before heading of to the theatre. Great atmosphere, really love the feel of this place. Great menu (plenty of veggie meal options). Food took about 20 mins - so great service. Tap water available - help yourself. Would highly recommend the Halloumi Burger. Will def visit again.

Good food and drink at a reasonable price. The ordering was very easy (using the app) with fast and efficient service. All good.

The third one of these 'lounge' pubs that I have visited. Love the menu and everything I have tried has been good. Would particularly recommend the hash browns which are an obsession of mine at the moment. The staff were super friendly and efficient. The place itself is a bit of an odd shape and the atmosphere in the part we were in was a bit dry. Still no complaints at all. Would recommend.

Can't fault the service and quality of food at this place. Love the atmosphere .

Good food, nice place, enjoyed it

Went here on a weekday. Very fast service. Good lighting and quirky decor. Great food. Would recommend their iced vanilla latte.

Fabulous place - amazing atmosphere, lovely food and quick service

Very good service and quality of beer great staff 👍

Was so looking forward to pancakes but unfortunately they were very burnt. Waitress kindly offered to make me a new but I said it was ok. These things happen.

We went here for our Marriage Ceremony brunch and everyone agreed it was lovely. Thank you for being so welcoming.

Great place for a drink and some food. Great vegan menu.

We loved every part of our visit, the food was lush! The atmosphere is chilled laid back vibe. with a really interesting eclectic style all around..

We love this chain, sometimes they are a little noisy for us, but maybe we are not the target age. You could sit outside, but under cover here, so all good.

Really good food. Lots to choose.

Very busy, however we didn't have to wait long for table service. The food was nice and hot drinks are pleasant The staff are very friendly all nice and clean .

Great place to eat and relax. Best tapas I have ever had

Loved the food, quick service however only one problem I found was the portion size was not adult size. Size would be for a 10yr old

Lovely evening out. Quick service, great food and a fun atmosphere

Chips came out luke warm,service was good as replacements were offered,as pub chains go it's OK.

Fantastic place. Had vegan options. Very kid friendly. Perfect place to go have brunch or a late lunch. Staff are amazing and helpful.

Won't be returning here terrible staff. Food and service.

Yet another excellent meal with great service
