Amazing food, really positive staff and very helpful. Place was clean though a little hectic as we was sat by the toy machine. I didn’t enjoy my stake as there wasn’t enough sauce on it and was very tough and hard to eat. Overall the place is our go to for family days just be aware of the times you go it can become a bit packed as it’s a good place.

The first time myself and my wife have visited this local pub. The food was excellent, the portions very good, the price was good, and the service good. We will be going back again. And already recommended it to family members. Thanks from Geoff and Gill.

Lunchtime ain't so busy..so it's not so atmospheric and buzzy. Had a pint and the vegan burger n fries. Fries really nice but the bun was over cooked on the burger and mostly inedible. I'm not a complainer and just wanted a quiet lunch to myself. So I didn't say anything. Last time it was spot on. The staff are always lovely.

If I could write a review and give this place 0 stars then I would. Our visit to festival inn was horrific. As soon as we stepped into the pub we were given disgusting looks from the bar staff. We asked if we could move a table across as there was a group of us to which we we’re not allowed which is fair enough so we sat on two separate tables. We all ordered via the app and had to wait around 1hr and 20mins for one food order to come out and then a following 20 mins for the next, bearing in mind we all order similar things. After this our mains came out before our starters, to which I asked where is the starter he was rude and said what did you order as there is no ticket left. I explained how ridiculous the whole thing was and how long we had to wait for our starters not to be brought out. One of the couples we were with cancelled there order all together as they were waiting 1hr. No apology from any staff and even the manager. My partner was very frustrated at this point and went up to ask for a refund for the starters to which the manager, said I cannot give you a refund. I then approached the manager and expressed my dissatisfaction from the moment we walked in to that pub to which he consisted to argue with me. He said “well you have all ordered separately, the app isn’t the best”. There was no apology!! This made me extremely angry and i pushed for a refund for the starter to which he later agreed too. Yet before this he said “we are unable to issue refunds” which was false as he refunded the couple with us. We have got a refund but by the previous reviews it may not even hit our bank accounts! So only time will tell. If there is any advise from this, do not waste your time and money on this place 😡

Probably one of the most welcoming and inclusive local pubs in the area, accommodating both adults, children and dogs. The menu is quite extensive and the food of a good quality, there are some really lovely dishes on the menu and all of a good value. The pub is often busy both lunchtimes and evenings which is a clear indication of a job well done. The bar is over 18s only, which is totally appropriate and sports are shown on the screens. There are 2 function rooms available for hire and there are regular music nights held there. Well done to the Festival team.

2nd bad experience here. Used to come here all the time but the last two times we have visited both the food and service have been really poor. 1st time Sunday dinner. Ordered the rib of beef, which is supposed to come with everything like the other dishes, didn't come with any roast potatoes or stuffing. Im disabled so I didn't go to the bar, and no one ever came over despite it being practically empty. I ate my dinner and when the MANAGER came over to take the plates away I told him and all he said was " well do you want them now". Of course I didn't, but an apology would have been nice. 2nd time last night fish was burnt and my flat bread was missing the (pico de gallo) salsa main ingredient. Again, nobody bothered to ask about the meal, took over an hour for anyone to clear any plates after we had finished, even though it wasn't busy and only then as I'd ordered some deserts and had to ask for the dirty plates to be taken away.

The staff are rude, especially the female with black and white hair who would rather tell paying customers that they do have other things to do, so a 30 minute period with nobody behind the bars seem to be acceptable, if customers can't spend money then they will go elsewhere. You won't need to worry about the other more important things you need to do, I won't be returning

Been going here for years and last night I was very disappointed!!! The food was NOT up to normal standards. New menu. Had a cheesy one burger??? Came with 2 tiny slices of normal burger cheese on it and 1 tiny bit of burnt end bit which was more like a lump of fat. And about 10 chips ... Nothing like the picture. Defo not cheesy enough to be called THE CHEESY ONE. We also had 2 portions of boneless chicken wings. Came with hardly no source on them so had to ask for some more. When that was bought it was dropped all over the table and we had to clean it up but more was bought out. At this point I told them about the burger to what that said... SORRY ABOUT THAT. They bought me out some more so called burned ends which again was a pot of fat in BBQ source. NOT NICE. Mentioned it to the staff at the end too expecting they to at least get a manager but again it was SORRY ABOUT THAT... WE SPENT OVER £160 LAST NIGHT AND IT WAS DISGUSTING. Staff don't seem to want to do much either, even at the bar the look on the face seemed like it was an effort when we asked for . Don't know what's happend but we was definitely disappointed and don't think we will return again unless something is done .

Popped in for tea with my son and was very disappointed. Service and staff were lovely but the place was near empty and I can see why. The food was appalling ! I has a sizzler. The onions on the sizzler had been microwaved or re-used before putting in the skillet and were inedible and just mush. The chicken breast (1/2 a chicken breast) was microwaved, as was the bacon on top - along with the bbq sauce topping and virtually tasteless. The mash was gloopy and luke warm and the peas were also virtually tasteless and dry. I appreciate its just pub grub but the whole meal had just been thrown together and nothing was edible. This place used to be great value tasty pub plates but I can honestly say they should not serve food here if this is the standard now. I won’t be retuning as clearly just reheated rubbish and nothing is “cooked”.

I went here having been to a service at Bramcote Crematorium. There was a prolonged wait for the required teas and coffees although they arrived eventually. There was no real ale available however Abbott was later available served from the bar area The food was good and there was plenty of it. There was something for everyone including the vegetarians. As there were around 12 of us we rearranged the seats so we formed more of an extended circle,rather than being seated in desperate smaller groups. All said it was pleasant and took me back to the early 70s when I used to go there on a Friday night in the function room. There are several disabled parking spaces and a ramp for those who cannot use the steps.
