The Fiveways in Nottingham

We had the Famous Filthy Kebab - it was excellent! The vegan slices were really tasty and aioli was scrumptious! Service was great and super friendly.

Amazing place, food and atmosphere is great. Staff are friendly and helpful and it’s a pub you can just feel at home even when you go in on your own for a pint.

Our afternoon tea was a gift from our daughter. The waitress was lovely and extremely attentive but the afternoon tea itself was very average. A selection of teas but all teabags! Afternoon tea usually consists of a selection of finger sandwiches and then homemade cakes. There were finger sandwiches but the fillings were very bland. There was a minute soggy pastry tart and a soup! The scones were good but very small and these are usually the centre piece of the tea but instead a slate filled with huge cakes was served. The almond tart didn’t taste of almond and the orange muffin was very heavy. Not nice at all. Have had far better.

Pub was too cold. Booked a table on line but no allocated table on arrival. Long wait for food order , without reason. Missing items off meals, no-one came to check if we were okay during meal. Dirty plates left on our table. Asked for dessert early was told abruptly ‘ it’s being processed’ … Half hour wait for said desserts, dirty plates still on table! Pub was not busy. We usually visit The Cadland same company ( unfortunately it was fully booked) , The cadland is how a pub should be run , Hemlock Stone need to visit and learn!

We had called by a few times previously for a drink and a bite of lunch when it was the Atlas, so we called by again for lunch.The immediate greeting was that there was a 20 minute wait for food (no hello), we went to order at the counter, but were told that the orders were now taken at the table, whilst the waitress came to our table in good time, the wait for the drinks was tedious, so tedious we considered leaving. The place was freezing, the front door was open all the time, everyone was sitting with coats and scarfs, it was like sitting in the garage with the freezer door left open. We saw so many people waiting for food, someone returning their food to the counter, that we decided just to wait for the hot drink (we were going to order food).We saw the tea bag (for one of our drinks) dropped on the floor and then put back on the saucer and served to us (we asked if we could swap it for a tea bag that hadn't been on the floor) - the waitress apologised, but come on this is basic hygiene surely staff should know not to do this?All in all, very, very average and not at all as we remembered when it was Atlas
