Me and my partner visited the Crows Nest Nuneaton and both ordered a starter and a burger meal for main, with both a vodka and coke and a pint of Pepsi Max our total came to around £45 which is pretty reasonable for a two course meal. The outside is misleading, and has seemingly had some work done to it but the inside is dated and mismatched. Upon entry, we noticed a lack of host stand and so self sat ourselves despite having a booking. I alerted the bar staff off our booking when placing our food order but he seemed unbothered. My main issue with this establishment was the customer service, neither the waitress who brought us our food or the bar staff seemed at all friendly or chatty and it was hard to brush off the feeling of being unwanted in their pub, especially amongst the other patrons drinking and eating at the same time as us. Our starters and mains were bought out at the same time, despite making it clear to the bar tender that i did in fact want the starters as starters, the food quality was good and did come quickly and hot. The burgers were both good, a little generic but for the price they were tasty and the chips were good. We were both a little perplexed as it seemed to us that our food was served in ceramic dog bowls but was good nonetheless. Sauces and cutlery are self serve and there are a good selection of sauces on offer but no additional sauces were offered to us and no check back was provided by staff after we received our food. Whilst I understand the ‘bar service’ as previously mentioned in other replies to reviews, I did go back up to the bar to collect waters and was not asked about my food then either. Overall, it seems like a good pub if you’re a regular or known but not the kind of place to go for a one off meal or drink.

This place feels very pub like. It was dark and had a cold feel to it. My food was soooo flavourless and the sauces were hard. It was honestly one of the worst pub meals that I’ve ever eaten. I had sausage and mash. It was like eating hot water. My daughter’s chicken burger was hard and she could barely bite it. Won’t be visit again.

We went for the Thursday steak deal. Order a steak & you get a free drink. If you order a sirloin steak you have to pay extra. There is no where in the pub that tells you this. It does say on their website. I don't have a problem with this, but do think they should make this very clear in the pub. Had an nice lunch. Pub definitely needs refurbishing. Very shabby. Staff was efficient & friendly.

First visit and on a late Friday afternoon (19th January). This is a large open plan pub and I arrived to find it fairly busy with some people eating and some just drinking and chatting. Pleasant surroundings with a pleasant social atmosphere. Ordered a drink and food at the bar. A couple of minutes after sitting down, the barman who had taken my order came to my table very politely apologising for the fact that they only had enough of my main meal for a lunch portion but I opted to order something else instead. My starter of soup arrived, piping hot, within fifteen minutes. Within about ten minutes of finishing that, a young lady collected my plates. A further ten minutes or so later, my vegetable curry arrived, again piping hot. Food was fine and well presented. What stood out for me, however, was the attentiveness and efficiency of the front of house staff, something which clearly extended to those in the kitchen. As I said, on my way out, to the young lady who had served me, "Good job, you". If first impressions are anything to go by, and as far as "food pubs" are concerned, this one seemed to be very well run which would probably provide at least one reason for its apparent popularity. Oh, and one other feature, in addition to some large screen TVs and a feature that I had not seen anywhere else, were some single table alcoves with their own small TVs set into the wall. Some visitors, of course, might prefer to leave TVs at home if eating out but, hey, you can't please everybody!

Food was great, staff was friendly but think it would of been better if a pre food check was done 10 mins with having the meal. Also make sure the menu right and the food is correct. Missed items and one meal was slightly longer than the rest. Apart from that the atmosphere and general feel of the pub was great. Thanks to all the staff that made the evening special. Again also where we was seated was great and close to where we parked due to disabilitie within the group.

Mega mixed grill. £18.50 totally stuffed tasty. You can't order and pay online like menus saying scan this qr code which takes you to a page saying no online ordering services are available. So it's the old fashion way go to the bar order and pay. Didn't have to wait too long for the food. Enjoyed it. All the Gammon steak is about £9.95 reasonable good value and quality. Plenty of parking. Dogs are allowed into the pub only one section they not allowed in and its clearly marked. However In the no dogs section someone had a great dane in there. Makes no sense. But anyway. There are a few booths dotted about with tvs in. Massive telly you can see from space ON THE Ceiling. I would come back.

Took advantage of some vouchers that had been posted through the door to get 30% off the main course of a meal. One mixed grill and one 8oz sirloin both with peppercorn sauce. Apart from the steak being over cooked so therefore a bit tough it was a nice meal, good size portions and good value. Would definitely go again as several other things on the menu I'd like to try.
