The Cake Solution in Gedling

My friend and I visit this place about once a fortnight. It has been taken over by new owners/management recently, and the menu has changed - cooked breakfasts are now served until noon (breakfasts weren't served at all before). No main meals now (they used to serve chilli con carne, shepherd's pie, pie and chips, etc). I had a (tiny) jacket potato for £5. A slice of cake is now £4.25 a slice!! The cakes aren't even fresh or baked on the premises. We're going to go to Sprinters instead in future.

Great Carvery dinner, I had the beef, the meet and vegetables were cooked just how we like them. Great beers too, guest ale was Barnsley Better, Veeeeery Nice. CAMRA discount given, too! Spot on.

Lunch by the log burner great staff & service & 99 p a pint 🍻🔥

Met 3 friends after work for dinner, as we’ve done times before over the last few years, table was pre booked weeks before for 4 people. The Hutts always been a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere with good food. On arrival place wasn’t busy but there were no staff to welcome/ seat us. When a staff member did approach us they struggled to locate our table on the computer, then tried to seat us at a very small table set for 3, stating they would find us another chair, where the other chair would have been placed would have meant it was touching another chair of the couple seated at the table behind. We asked for a different table and were asked to go get a drink at the bar whilst they located one. After approximately 10 minutes the same staff member came to us at the bar and asked if we were the party waiting for a table, it seemed like she couldn’t remember us from 10 minutes earlier, but we were showed to a much larger table with more room. Previous experience of the Hutt has been warm and efficient, last night was out of character for this venue and we were a little concerned about the rest of our visit. When seated however, we had a young male waiter called Charlie serve us, he smiled a lot and was warm in his manner, which could not be said for any of the other staff on duty. Charlie was attentive and hospitable and could not do enough for us. When we finished our meal and paid at the end of the evening we thanked him for his service, Charlie disclosed he had only been at the establishment for six days, thank goodness he has been employed into the team, because he is a real asset to the establishment. He definitely turned the experience of our visit around. Had he not been our waiter we probably would be looking at somewhere else to go closer to our workplaces to meet up in the future.

Just a pub selling food, £4.95 for soup? You make your mind up
