The Embankment Pub & Kitchen in Rushcliffe

Visited for a wedding reception. The Buffet was delicious. Service was good, staff were all helpful and friendly. Car parking isn't very well lit or explained. We read a review about getting a parking ticket so spent 20 minutes faffing about getting one. Only to realise we could just add our car registration at the bar for no fee

I have walked past this place loads of time and have never been in! We went here last weekend for a wedding reception, what a great place! It's a Castle Rock pub, so you get all their beers! Don't forget to download the app and collect loyalty points for free beers! If you're parking, there is no need to pay, just remember to put your vehicle reg number in the tablet at the bar! Defo coming back for a session in the summer!!!

Usual overpriced beer restricted hours only go to visit mates.

Always had great food, staff always friendly, and the location is wonderful for a day out at the embankment!

Just had fantastic Sunday roast with friends .Service really good.

You wont normally expect a pub on the outskirts to have paid parking, so if you are coming in late it is easy to miss parking signs, and you wont see or hear any parking reminders in the pub, they will just slap you with a £60 parking fine after you finish your overpriced pint. Basically they are running a little parking scam in collaboration with some private parking company. Avoid if you can

Close to City Ground great selection of ales

Huge range of Bitter, lager and cider in a grand old building

Lovely pub with the usual Castle Rock wide range of beers. Decent menu. My only negative is that the music played seems geared more to the staff’s taste than the customers - Rush, QOTSA etc? It didn’t sit well with the customer demographic today! 😂

Sunday afternoon table for eight early daughters' birthday celebrations. Quite possibly my favourite pub, I was also in the day before for the Forest match. Sunday roasts all round beef, chicken & pork, no complaints, all plate soon clean, nice & easy family celebration, good time had by all, total food bill £135 the Harvest Pale was excellent.

Mesa del domingo por la tarde para ocho celebraciones de cumpleaños de hijas tempranas. Muy posiblemente mi pub favorito, también estuve el día anterior para el partido del Bosque. Domingo asados todo alrededor de carne de res, pollo y cerdo, sin quejas, todo el plato pronto limpio, agradable y fácil celebración familiar, buen tiempo tenido por todos, factura total de alimentos £ 135 la Palidez de la cosecha fue excelente.

Really outstanding pub serving good staples in a gorgeous setting lovely staff working and spotlessly clean nice 80's playlist on speakers and empty which is my idea of heaven I will be back better than crappy coffee shops and pretentious bars in WB 👍👍

Excelente casa pública, el personal muy amable, gran selección de bebidas alcohólicas, una zona de fumadores climatizada fuera, se pone muy ocupado en el día del partido, que es genial si eres un fanático del fútbol, 5 ⭐️

Very good pub with fantastic staff. Great beer selection and the food is a nice twist on traditional pub food. You can find a fair amount of classics alongside some really interesting yet not over-complicated dishes. The chengdu loaded fries are 10/10!

What a fantastic place to meet friends

Decent pub before the match abit pricey but good

Went for a few beers and a meal with a friend for a birthday celebration and couldn't fault anything. Fantastic choice of beers, great food. Only slight negative is that I'd have liked more choice for deserts but what I have was delicious.

Excellent atmosphere. The building itself is full of some great original features l8ke the ceiling. outside is good for all the weather. Staff secondto none.

Salió al pre-footie de The Embankment con mi esposa el sábado por la tarde. Muy amable, con una buena gama de bebidas. . Decidimos compartir algo de comida, y fuimos con las patatas fritas completamente cargadas, y elegimos el plato de Luisiana que era absolutamente delicioso. Una muy buena experiencia bebiendo y cenando gracias.

Celebramos nuestra recepción de boda en el terraplén, y no podíamos haber pedido una mejor experiencia. Shereen, la gerente de eventos, fue un sueño hecho realidad - tan amable y servicial, que nos ayudó con la planificación y no podríamos haberlo logrado sin ella. Por un precio muy razonable, contratamos las dos habitaciones de arriba, y aunque proporcionamos la mayoría de nuestras propias decoraciones, fueron capaces de configurarlo para nosotros y las habitaciones se veían tan hermosas! La comida (bufé caliente, pastel de cabaña) era increíble, varios invitados nos dijeron que era la mejor comida que habían tenido en una boda! Muchas gracias Shereen y equipo por hacer que nuestras celebraciones de boda sean tan especiales 🩷

I've not been here for ages, decided to skip the Nottingham beer festival on the other side of the Trent, and bought a round (3 pints) of cocoa stout, brilliant ale. Must go again soon.

Amazing Sunday dinner, good music & nice staff 👌

Great place to meet and have food. Staff are great.

Great place for food or drinks and loads of cosy seating. There are benches out in the back, even with heating and free car parking. Lovely staff and large selection of beers

Lovely pub next to the Trent bridge. The staff were lovely and Ella was really kind and helpful when ordering.

¡Cena de domingo AmAzInG! Una visita al terraplén para la cena dominical ha resultado en que el lugar reclame el primer lugar. Mi familia tuvo la cena más deliciosa, con porciones gigantescas. ¡El queso de coliflor es el mejor que he probado! ¡No te decepcionarás!

Sunday roast was lukewarm a and underwhelming. The venue was cold. I have had great food in the past at this pub. I must have visited at an off day. Disappointing.

2 pints b4 forest mated served unbelievably quick was rammed

If you are wearing designer clothes do not try and get in this venue They will not reply to emails asking why the discriminate against people in this way Got told by door staff that if I put a £750 coat in the bin outside they would let me in Terrible service Update they have now replied to email and are accusing me of being drunk and trying to take alcohol in the pub and I do not drink because I am on medication all I wanted was a meal before the game with friends and family as we arrived on a coach and the rest of the coach party got in the pub I am not being called a lier by them

The Sunday dinners are outstanding.

Had a party here, excellent staff, great food, great venue.

The worst event been to this year what happend ? Absolute rubbish not even equivalent to half what usually is here at the embankment,been attending for years didn't manage to get there last year so was looking forward all the more disappointed to say the least a few rides with good music sound 👍 Great job, few foodie stalls all selling same old literally was it who ever organised this year you failed and you should think about career change not spent penny there btw 😎

A fantastic pub with a wide range of real ale to choose from. Didn't eat there but the food looked great.

We had the pleasure of getting married here 10/08 and we honestly cannot thank Shereen and the team at embankment enough 🙏🏽 the room was dressed beautifully everything was perfect, the food was Delicious and the whole process was smooth running and stress free from start to finish 🙃 highly recommend this pub for any special occasion ❤️🍾

Great pub and has artists some evening

Always go here for pre match pint. Only ever had pizza or the cheesy chips but Always on point.

Didn't have food just relaxed and enjoyed a drink

All in all a good pub, they just need clean up their beer garden properly. It's filthy out there!

I'll start off by saying I've been here previously and recommended it to lots of people but unfortunately the service today has changed all of that. We originally sat in the conservatory but had to move after a very loud table arrived with lots of swearing in front of children. We ordered the 3 meat and the vegan roasts, I had the vegan and it was fine. My partner did not like the 3 meat, he tried a bit of everything on the plate but couldn't get on with any of it - the Yorkshires were incredibly crispy but then the bottom was uncooked, the green beans overdone etc. It is a large plate of food and it was a large plate of food after he had tried some of it. He took the plate to the bar and explained that he didn't like it and wanted a refund as he paid £21 for it. From where I was sitting I could see four staff behind the bar at the time and apparently not one of them had the sense to fetch the manager or practice good customer service. Supposedly he is the first person in the history of The Embankment to not like the food. Highly unlikely... The staff said they couldn't give him a refund as he had tried some of the food...?! I'll just leave that with you. So despite him clearly not even having had a quarter of it they refused even half the money back. He was offered a drink. He should have been offered £21 worth of drinks if anything. Understandly he was furious and we had to leave immediately. Let me say if I had of gone to the bar the outcome would have been entirely different, given that I have worked in hospitality for over 20 years and I was trained properly. If your staff do not know what to do with an unhappy customer then firstly train them to get the Manager immediately, secondly train them! I expect the Manager to get in touch with me and to offer the right outcome - a full refund. Needless to say I will no longer be recommending this place to people with dogs, or for the vegan food, or who want to walk and have a pub nearby. I'm a local and go in quite often for a drink so it really does go to show how detrimental bad service goes to your long-standing clientele. Do better.

We attended a birthday party upstairs at the Embankment the only problem was it was on a hot day and the zircon wasn't working but other than that it was a great place

Fine. I’ve had ales here that didn’t taste amazing but not bad enough to send back that’s for sure Atmosphere is cool but possibly lacking a ‘local’ vibe I reckon Outdoor area is popular with younger types Could be improved with slightly cheaper ales

The worst service, staff were rude, plates left for hours, asked multiple times for them to take the plates to be taken away. The food took over an hour to come for 2 people and it was so quiet. Front of house staff including bar and waitress’ were obnoxious and clearly didn’t want to be serving.

Father's Day Sunday table for 11 looked after by Shereen 👍 harvest pale my favourite 🍺 Sunday roasts all round food was excellent no complaints & some new fans of one of my favourite pubs, total food bill £189.00

Had my baby shower at the embankment a few weeks ago and it was absolutely brill! We have been plenty before, but never for a function. Shereen and the team made everything flow so easily, we didn’t have to think of anything once. Food was amazing and the staff were their usual gorgeous selves

Walked down embankment and crossed over and did Southbank, Southbank especially lined with bars and various activities, worth a walk and you don’t need to spend money.

Best Sunday lunch I've had in years, absolutely delicious!

Top class drink and hospitality. ❤️ Would definitely recommend this place 😉

Needs a good clean outside!! More staff to clear tables.

Great outside seating with a view of the Trent. Very good beer.

Visiting Nottingham for a concert , booked for Sunday lunch pre concert. I had the roast beef and hubby had the Sunday lunch burger. Both meals were absolutely delicious and plentiful . We asked for the chef to be told so.

Lovely pub with nice food but a little pricey x

Yet to find a better Sunday roast in Notts. All the food is amazing, the head chef needs Michelin star. All the staff are just lovely too. In such a perfect location by the river. A venue that is worth its weight in gold.

Sunday afternoon 21/4 around half four, the Castle Rock (one of my favourites was excellent) second round of drinks two roasts ordered roast beef topside & garlic & herb chicken breast, got to be one of the best Sunday roasts I have had in a very long time 😋

Great selection of beers and bottles staff very friendly and the food was good. A must visit pub for lovers of beer.

I really love this place. Nice and spacious but with a cosy atmosphere and friendly staff. It's also dog friendly. Great place for a drink or a nice meal. Some good veggie options and dietary options. And all at a reasonable price.

Great food, old school hospitality, fab selection of drinks .. Sunday lunch is outstanding. 5* Highly recommended.

Great selection of beers and the Sunday lunch is amazing

We went to a private function in the beautiful upstairs room. Very nice Indeed

Great pub with good beers and decent food. Have visited many times. Good friendly atmosphere

Sunday lunch is excellent and a wide range of drinks although a bitter would be good. Can't fault anything else and staff know the product they are selling.

Food was ok, had some good beers though

Good beer and decent food. Very good Sunday roast. Large garden with covered areas.

Nice pub but wish the bar had more space

A fascinating old building to visit. The pub used to be a Boots pharmacy which opened in 1907, and visual memories in the decor and in pictures on the walls are there to remind you of the building’s past. The pub is dog friendly and the staff are professional and pleasant to deal with. An excellent choice of beers are available in particular. We spent a very enjoyable weekend afternoon there with a group of friends and their dogs. Based on my experience I can strongly recommend this pub as a excellent choice to visit .

Harvest Pale was not at it's best

1st time in, it was good. Just had a couple of pints before watching my team. Nottingham Forest F.C. no Carling tho👎

Fab pub with a function room to die for. Lots of space, friendly staff and great grub. Proper beers and a car park! So cloae to town fabulous! Thanks for having us.

Cool vibe, excellent craft keg selection.

Best pub the Meadows. This place does the best Sunday Roast for miles around. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It has parking and a decent outside area. I would avoid it on match days unless you enjoy queuing, limited food options and football fans as it gets VERY busy.

Nice pub great atmosphere very friendly didn't try the food so can't comment on that but thanks for being so welcoming

Great pub for us Morecambe fans before the game at Notts County. Lovely food, great atmosphere

Great selection of beers, good atmosphere and lovely staff

We had booked here for a Christmas get together...20 of us in total. The pub suggested they do a carvery for us, supplied us with a carvery menu, and in all booking correspondence a carvery was confirmed. What we actually got was a buffet, a very disappointing buffet with barely enough food for all. When we pointed this out we were bought more carrots and parsnips...had to wait an age for more gravy too. The dessert was just as much of a let down, with a yule log sliced so thinly you could've slid it under the door. I would suggest the staff learn the difference between a buffet and a carvery and not act so surprised and offended when people ask for more when you supply an insufficient amount.

Very helpful staff & great food 👍😊

A good pub, well presented. On-site parking is not free, so remember to pay-by-phone or online.

Absolutely terrible food. Portion size was ridiculous. 14 tiny fries in a bowl...as if this made it better!! ..and not massive fries ...little bits of fries. Steak baguette was a tiny rock hard cob cut in half with four thumb size tiny slices of steak. £12.50 ! Absolutely disgraceful...and we ordered 4 ....all terrible so.not a one off

Ok decided to go for food today didn’t bother to book a table shereen seated us without question the food was delicious and the service was amazing thank you shereen

Went to see Spam (the band ) , great night as always , good pub

Great food and great selection of drinks in former Boots Chemist and social club with fantastic interior decoration and atmosphere. Friendly staff with quick and efficient service and reasonably priced.

Do not park your car in their car park, signage so small re payment metres, we were at my friend's 50th got their at 7.30pm came away at 10pm and 3 days later a fine for £60. 00 for parking, so that was our 1st and LAST EVER VISIT.

Sometimes you need to take a gamble and roll the dice. Auditioning for a Shakespeare play, oh yes I am!

Took a while to get served but to be expected on match day's.

Nice historic pub ( it used to be the old Boots pharmacy social club) serving about 12 real ales and ciders and plenty of others on tap. Friendly staff. Serves food. Allows stop overs but be sure to ring ahead. There’s a computer system to input your vehicle details. Do this on arrival or risk being fined! It’s about a 15 minute stroll into town. Recommended. 🍻 🍎 🍏 🥘 🚐

Love this place. The food is exceptional. The staff are awesome. The drinks are always good (and varied if you drink ales). We liked it so much, we got married here and have just celebrated our first wedding anniversary here too 😀

Lovely castle rock pub near trent bridge and football grounds,lovely staff

Nice pub, poor choice of beer and the food was only acceptable

Friendly bar staff, great selection of beers and restaurant food is super 👌

Excellent place and good music too

Stopped off to have a couple of beers before watching the mighty Forest. Friendly staff and great atmosphere 👍🍻

Very well presented castle rock pub, good atmosphere, nicely situated for a gentle walk down the river trent and the embankment

PUB with 20 + real ales on the River Trent Food excellent best putine since I was in Canada

We had our wedding evening party here on 19/8/23! I couldn’t have asked for better service from shereen and the team.The whole process was very well organised and was very accommodating to any needs and details I wanted. Anything I was unsure she was always there to help! The wedding day it’s self was amazing! Went so smoothly thanks to the whole team everything went as planned! The room was decorated perfectly! Also big shout out to chefs the food was amazing all my guests couldn’t believe how good the food was! Thank you again would highly recommend an event here!

Great breakfast on cricket match day..

Have only been here on match days, but the beer is fabulous. Brilliant atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff and door men. A lovely place to have a drink. Haven't tried the food yet, but I expect it is very good.

Super food, indifferent service. Nice environment.

The ipa and lager were very poor, flat and had to change

Super choice of beers. Always had a great pint

A well managed pub, with a friendly atmosphere and a great selection of beers.

Didn't eat. Just had a couple of beers. Out of about 12 pumps, 6 were ciders. Other 6 beers but I wasn't over impressed with selection. One beer I had, Saltaire, was terrible.but that was the beer, not the pubs fault.

Friendly staff and reasonable food.
