Went for the Indian buffet and the service and food was excellent. My son is coeliac and the chef looked after him so well cooking him fresh chips and even a gluten free naan bread. He absolutely loves this place now and asks to go back all the time! Went back with family for my dad’s 60th and all the staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and enjoyed our evening. Huge huge thank you to Bittu the chef!!

Have been eyeing-up the Indian buffet nights for a few weeks now and finally went this week. Good selection of food on the night: fries and masala fries, onion bhaji, chicken and lamb starters, popadoms and naan, steamed and pilau rice, and about 7/8 different flavoursome curries to choose from. Great opportunity to try small portions of everything they have to offer, then go all-in on whichever you decide is your favourite until you can’t make room for any more! Desserts were a vanilla ice cream and a rice pudding-like dish. Definitely recommend and we’re looking at how soon we can get back there!

We came here for Sunday dinner as it had not been for a while. The food was reasonably priced, which is positive, however I would describe food as average. The place was quite empty as well, the Yorkshire puddings was not made well at all it was dried out. Beef didn't seem such good quality as it was on my last visit. Slightly disappointed maybe sometimes before I try the place again. It's a shame because they had a great Sunday dinner at one point and it's a shame it has reduced in quality.

Super value fixed price menu currently 2 courses for £12 at lunchtime, best value in the area. Great choice of starters and mains which we struggled to finish. Lovely setting and good staff not sure how long the deal is on for before they change the menu so get down there you won't be disappointed. Had the Indian starter and 2 traditional English mains couldn't fault it.

Booked for Easter Sunday Lunch with my partner and daughter. The food was lovely the staff were friendly and the service was excellent. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and it's a very pleasant place to eat out. There's not that many nice places to eat out in Nuneaton but this is one of them I never understand why it's not busier. At £17 for 2 courses it's very good value for money. We had a lovely time and will be back again very soon

Booked on line but had to wait 3 days for confirmation. Lovely venue, but disappointed that there were TV showing sport throughout the restaurant, ok sound was turned right down but it did spoil the area. Staff friendly and food really very good. Great selection of starters including poppadoms and chutneys. Good selection of mains, including several for vegetarians, along with rice and naan bread. A variation in the heat of curry's would have been nice as all the chicken and lamb curry's were hot. Icecream or rice pudding for desert was a nice treats usually no afters on buffets

We came for Sunday dinner on Easter Sunday and the food was very good. The portions were generous, the Yorkshire pudding massive and the desserts were really nicely presented as well as being delicious. We asked for extra gravy as not much was served on the plate and a very small additional jug was brought out - these could do with being larger. The unsmiling serving staff were fine, the lady behind the bar and the gentleman who I assumed to be the manager were both friendly and helpful. The restaurant itself is a weird one. At first it feels as though it’s a cafeteria, all bare, open plan with lots and lots of tables. But then you’ve got two massive flat screen wall mounted TV’s on either side playing football (thankfully on mute, but still not usually what you want when going out for a nice meal). Then add the pink LED light bulbs overhead - is it being ready to be turned into a club at night time? What about the random grand piano? I got the impression that the Fuzzy Duck is trying to do everything, but in the end it sadly results in a strange, atmosphere-less beige room.

At thr last minute, my friend and I booked a slot for the bottomless brunch last Saturday and wow, it was great! For £35 they had a great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholkc drinks and the food was delicious! I had a chicken tikka 'naanwich'. The staff were lovely, really friendly and more than happy to assist. The only thing j would say is, maybe they could offer 2hrs instead of 1.5hrs, to match other venues within the local area. But, it was honestly lovely.

Booked with 4 other friends for the Indian Buffet and was not disappointed. The range of food was excellent and regularly refreshed with a selection of starters, with popadoms and range of chutney to begin. The mains were self serve allowing for number of dishes to be sampled with rice too. The only comment I could make is that the syrup on the ice cream was a bit 'gloopy' but I wouldn't normally take a desert. I'm sure we'll be back again.

Lovely few hours spent chatting and drinking lovely cocktails. We had pre booked a table in the restaurant, we shared the fish platter which was nice. For main course we shared the chateaubriand, well presented and the taste was amazing, BUT it was accompanied with chips!! My chips were cold although my husband said his were hot and tasty, mine were hard and cold. On reflection I don’t think mine had been cooked, they were supposed to be triple cooked chips and somehow mine didn’t make it for the 3rd time! It didn’t spoil the meal as the steak more than made up for the chips although it could of been served with something more adventurous than chips. We were served by Leanne, she was very attentive , service with a smile.

We both opted for home made pie of the day and it was delicious !!! The quality of the wine we chose was also really good. As the lunch was only going to be £10 we decided to have a cocktail and we were surprised to find they we’re 2 for 1 . The staff were very friendly and attentive. All in all it was a top lunch.. thank you Fuzzy Duck.

I’m not one to complain but I find myself massively disappointed yet again. Ordered a sharing roast today with it being Mothering Sunday. I ordered it for 11.30 knowing all too well that it would be late, as has been our previous experience for every delivery we’ve ordered. Made several attempts to chase on messenger and by phone. All 3 of my messages appear to have been read with no explanation or apology at all. It arrived at 12.35 stone cold, with again no apology or explanation. I wouldn’t be as bothered if it wasn’t for the kids but it’s extremely frustrating having to chase your dinner down with no knowledge of when it’s actually going to arrive. It’s a shame but the customer service massively lets the whole place down. I left a review on the page a moment ago which has promptly been deleted. That again speaks volumes that as a business, they won’t allow you to leave a review. Massively disappointed, ruined the day. Needless to say, I won’t be ordering from you again.

Would give 6 stars if I could.The place is truly lovely, It looks comfortable but classy as well.Service is fantastic : all of the waitresses are making sure you have everything you need even if it’s not their table to take care of. They never stopped smiling, were very patient and professional. I've had short chat with the manager (Peter), brilliant personality and very talkative, he made sure that we were looked after very well.Most importantly the food is to die for. We went today for a Sunday roast. The Welsh Lamb was delicious and perfectly cooked, potatoes were the best type of crispy, carottes roasted to perfection, with a nice minted jus on the side.We had a bit of house marinated olives and rustic breads to keep us waiting before our roast and it was tasty and fresh.Dessert was everything i expected : sumptuous sticky toffee pudding. Never had such a moist one.You guys keep up the good work, I will Defo come back next time I m in Nuneaton.

To whom it may concern. I would like to send my feedback regarding my visit last Wednesday. I can honestly say from the get go it was a disaster. Got told 5 hours before i was due to dine with yourselves on the 9th that you wasn’t opening until the Wednesday. Now, from my point of view (somebody who manages a restaurant) i knew your reason for “we are giving the staff a week off before reopening” wasn’t true, especially as you continued to post photos of the kitchen installation days after the 9th. I find being honest with the customers and giving them an update on what’s going on sits better with them, as they feel they have some sort of inside knowledge on what’s going on behind the scenes. Anyway, jump to the 13th. Table booked at 7pm, was told to sit and wait in the bar. No track and trace details were taken, no QR code for us to scan on the NHS app. Sat down at 7pm, nobody had come to our table come 7.15, so i went to the bar to ask for a menu. 7.20 i had to go back to the bar to ask for someone to take my order. Drinks arrived at 7.34pm. My “purple duck” was actually blue, clearly missing the grenadine stated on the menu which would’ve changed the colour to purple. Excellent drinks menu, i must add! Great variety of cocktails, wines, gins. Very impressed. Around 7:50pm we were taken to our table, 50 mins after our booked time. Food order taken at 8pm.I did think that sitting the whole restaurant at one time wasn't the right way to go about it as this puts a ridiculous strain on the kitchen, especially on their first live night of service. I do completely understand that this might've been to buy time to get the POS system working, but it could've been handled differently. Myself and my husband both manage restaurants, so to notice that the till system wasn’t up and running and your staff aimlessly walking round a was a disaster in our eyes.If the tills weren’t working, hand written checks should have been given to the kitchen to at least start getting food going to enable diners adequate time to eat given the 10pm curfew. The only person i could make out to be a manager was a man with a grey suit top on. He didn't take control of the situation at all, took a back seat and i saw no customer interaction at all. If i was in his shoes i would’ve encouraged the waiting on staff to give the kitchen written orders, keep the guests happy by offering more drinks etc. I was surprised to find that a lot of the menu items were unavailable. Lobsters, larger steaks & sides. I asked for a side of mac and cheese for my stepdaughter but was told sides were not available, leaving us to fork out an additional £7 for a main course portion in which half the ingredients inside she wouldn’t have eaten.I requested this came just plain, which it did. At 8:50 the food arrived after a slight detour round the restaurant. My meal was missing (sirloin cooked rare) waiting on staff were apologetic and got the kitchen to get working on getting me my meal. The Josper Cooked poussin came without the Madeira Jus, and still had the elastic on to hold it in shape. I’d highly recommend this gets removed in the future to stop the more uneducated customers complaining.My husbands steak (fillet cooked medium) was cooked rare. They offered to rectify this, but as it was pushing 9pm and half the restaurant hadn’t had food he declined the offer of a replacement. My sirloin arrived at 9:03, under 10 mins after i had sent my steak back. Given cooking & resting time under 10 mins was not a realistic time to get a rare steak back out. Obviously this came to me under cooked (blue) I have previously worked with a Josper oven myself, so yes, it cooks at a high temp, but it doesn’t work miracles. My father in law called over a member of staff so he could pass back the feedback, she told us the owner would be over, which he never did. Got told that our food would be comp’d which i found a joke as myself or my husband never actually got a decent, edible meal. So nobody with any actual managerial role dealt with our table, which i thought was quite spineless. For a table to be as unhappy as we were, I honestly feel this should’ve been handled better. For it to be told it was a “VIP” night and for it to have gone the way it did was horrendous. I’d have made more of an effort to send out complimentary Prosecco, breads & dips, something to take peoples minds off being so hungry and waiting extensive amounts of times to eat.I must say the kitchen is gorgeous! The food which was coming out was presented excellently. The equipment choice is excellent, just a shame that this evening wasn’t a fair opportunity for the chefs to perform as well as they could. I thought i would share my feedback via email to save the embarrassment on TripAdvisor as i know this can easily cripple a business’ reputation. Theres a few points above which need to be addressed and worked on.Overall, complete waste of time, especially as this was booked as an anniversary meal.

Well, I was warned by a friend that the service was poor last weekend. I said, not to worry there busy we expect a wait. Get there, waitress (BLESS HER) 15 minutes a wait on cocktails and it will be longer later when people start to arrive. They have a machine that makes the cocktails hence the wait. There was 6 of us, and it was my birthday. So you can imagine we wanted the cocktails to flow nicely. That really did not happen... Atmosphere was nice at first then when people started arriving I could see the disappointment on everyone faces. A table next to ours pretty much sat back to back. No social distance. The group of ladies next to us waited almost an hour for their drinks. A couple to the left of us had been there almost an hour and half no food. The price of the food is AVERAGE. The price of the drinks is JOKE especially with the 40 minute wait per order. We spent just over £200 in the restaurant and then booked a table in the bar for after. Sat in the bar for 20 minutes and no waiter, we get up to leave and the waitress couldn’t apologise enough. I feel sorry for the staff. I feel sorry for you if you go. I NEVER WRITE REVIEWS BUT WOW!!! If it wasn’t for my friends I’d of had the worse birthday to date! Less bookings and more staff is needed. And have real people making your cocktails, you might have a few more people happy to wait if you can get the drinks to the table quick enough. Shambles.

Heard rave reviews about food here and wasn't disappointed. The food was perfectly cooked and plenty of it. Our waitress was especially nice and tended to our every need. My only grumbles was the loudness of the noise in the restaurant possibly screen to minimise the noise and some of front of house seemed little overwhelmed. But don't let this put you off the food was superb see hou wed before lockdown!!

We waited 1 hour for our first drinks, that’s no joke! Shocking that they only have 1 girl serving everyone in the bar. We ordered 2x the drinks at once as it was so long. We did order straight away when we got served and waited around 30+ mins for them. So if you go order double the round, but honestly give it a miss for a while till they get more staff.

After reading the previous reviews I wasn't sure what I had let myself in for...... but outstanding service from start to finish.Waited briefly outside, whilst I was checked in and encouraged to log into the NHS covid app, seated and drinks ordered taken almost immediately. Staff were obviously busy, but working incredibly hard and very attentive. Meal and drinks all arriving in a reasonable about of time. Food was first class.Great atmosphere, plenty of space between tables.Felt very valued as a customer and certainly didn't feel the service was everything less than outstanding.

I will admit the food was lovely. However... When I arrived there was large groups of people waiting outside with no social distancing and not many mask. There was no organisation to get people inside. Then when we were seated we had to wait over 30 minutes to get drinks which were forgotten about. The wait for the food once it was ordered wasn’t too bad. The worst part was we had to wait over an hour for the bill after asking a few times. During this wait the food wasn’t even collected so we had to sit and wait for over an hour with cold food on the table. It ruined my night and I won’t be visiting again.

We were a group of 4 friends out for drinks. Knowing the current covid rules we booked tables in advance. The place we visited before here were very efficient, different matter when we arrived here. There was a large crowd outside the main door, very little social distancing was able to take place as there were so many people. Turns out everyone was waiting to be taken to their tables. Most of the groups had also booked in advance. The man on the door said the people inside weren't leaving so there were no tables available. When I phoned to book we were told the table would be ours for 2 hours, and we could stay longer only if no-one was waiting for the table. However they were not informing this rule which created the unacceptable crowding at the door. I saw a friend inside when we were finally admitted and she said she had been in there for over 4 hours and no-one had even asked them to leave, she was unaware of the situation outside.20 minutes after arriving (on time) and just as we had decided to leave and return to the original pub they suddenly decided to see us into the bar. We were shown to a table which quite clearly had not been cleaned after the people before us had left, the table was very sticky and has spillages still on it. We asked for it to be cleaned but no-one returned to do it. There we sat for 25 minutes waiting for someone to take our drinks order. We called 2 different people over, both of whom said it wasn't their job. Again just as we were about to get up and leave someone came over and took our order (probably because we had been waving like lunatics and loudly asking for service).As they had taken so long to take our order we decided on 2 drinks each, 8 in total. 35 minutes later and 3 members of staff later our drink BEGAN to arrive. We were told there had been a problem with the cocktail machine. Strange that the table behind us had had 2 lots of cocktails brought to their table in that time. We also noted that a table of men who arrived after us had received their drinks and finished them before any of our drinks arrived, and 2 of those drinks were on tap. I made it very clear to 2 different members of staff how unhappy we were with the service. Both said they would "see what they could do" and neither member returned to our table.From start to finish our time here was a shambles, organisation was zero, I've never on my life waited so long for a drinks order to be taken and then for the drinks to arrive. In most restaurants we could have had a 2 course meal in the time it took for us to receive our drinks. If you are concerned in the slightest about covid19 do not use this establishment. On the door all the correct things were being said (despite the crowding issues), but once inside many people were not following guidelines, and as I said before the table was filthy. Also I heard the doorman tell someone they were not allowed in without a mask on, even after the man said he was exempt from wearing one he wasn't allowed in, I thought this wasn't allowed to happen? So heads up if you are exempt you won't be allowed inThe management need to seriously have a think about how they can sort the issues out as I feel they will be losing a lot of customers at a time when many places cant afford to. I wont be returning.

Went here for drinks and food yesterday. Food was nice, all be it a bit cold. The service was quite frankly the worst service I have ever experienced at any venue I have ever been to. Obviously it’s table service due to COVID and we waited on average 45 mins for each drink - we were ordering bottles of prosecco.... so how that happens I have no idea. Tables around us were also experiencing a similar service. When we complained and asked for the manager the manager was extremely rude. Also don’t come to this place if you’re concerned about cleanliness or Covid. They crammed us in like sardines quite frankly - there was 0 social distancing going on between table set ups. Absolute shambles.

Booked this a while in advance for our anniversary as seeing the pictures of the refurb it looked really nice. Upon arrival we were walked through the bar into the restaurant, it was getting busy in the bar however we thought this was a good thing, creating an atmosphere as best possible whilst still sticking to COVID restrictions.We ordered at around 6:05pm, drinks starters and main, annoyed I was told I couldn’t swap new potatoes for chips because “it’s difficult to do on the till”, should of been a sign of things to come. Out of around 25/30 tables in the restaurant there were approx ten with customers on. After around half an hour our starter came, we asked where the drinks were but didn’t receive an answer.Another half an hour passes and our mains come, at this point we ask again about drinks and we are told there has been an error getting the drinks orders from the restaurant to the bar. 5 minutes later we were told they were 10/15 minutes away, so we asked if it was taking this long, can we order some more. So we order two more drinks each. 5 minutes later 6 drinks arrive at our table at the same time. The whole restaurant which was about 70% full at this point was becoming restless with the lack of drinks and us suddenly having 3 each made it look as though we had been holding up the bar!We finished our main and although we have no way of proving this, we drank the cocktails within say half an hour, and if I had to guess I’d say there was no alcohol in them whatsoever. As we had been waiting the longest I assume they had been made as fast as possible without having the alcohol in them. This is a guess based on the taste, the lack of any effect from drinking all three in such a short space of time and the fact one of the waitresses offered to get us “something they can just grab of the bar” soft drinks etc, whilst we were waiting, as it was quicker.Following our meal we sat at the table for an hour with no one coming over to ask about our meal or clear the table we started trying to get someone attention. A first waitress came over and we explained all the issues we have had and she apologised, and said we could move to our table in the bar that had been placed on our original booking, but she needed to check. 20 minutes passed and nothing, then another waitress came over and simply placed the bill down and stood waiting for payment. When we explained we had booked a table in the bar she got us to follow her through where we were seated. After 40 minutes it was around 10 to 9 and we decided to give up and go home, a final waitress came over and explained that all the staff were new and had only been trained from Wednesday, there were 15 tickets out standing on the bar so we knew if we ordered at that point we still wouldn’t receive the drinks before closing time.To make our bar experience worse, what was a safe vibrant atmosphere when we came in was not the same when we was seated in there. A table of around 8 to 10 lads were sat to the left of the entrance, no six to a table rule? The same group evidently had friends on the other side of the bar in which they kept walking round and swapping tables. On top of this different groups becoming tireless with waiting were simply going up to the bar and trying to get served, to my annoyance, sometimes successfully!!In probably a decade of going out for food and drinks etc I have honestly never experienced anything this bad. For the first hour we sat there thinking we don’t want to be one of them people who complain about everything, things went from bad to worse to absolutely awful. Completely ruined what was meant to be a special occasion, if you can’t operate under COVID restrictions or as a bar/restaurant in general then don’t try to!

One of our party found a foreign body in the cauliflower, at first it looked like the back of an ear ring. However staff said it was from a button. The staff were great and resolved the problem with another meal, however it did spoil the whole occasion. Therefore I asked to speak to the manager who was a lady and asked if she would come over and at least apologies on behave of the fuzzy duck to the lady in my party who nearly ate it. She refused and kept saying her staff had already apologised and they took the meal off the bill.I was not bothered about paying, I just thought management would come over and apologies as this item could have easily been eaten and we could be in a different place. A real shame as we always go there every month and we are a party of 6 and your serving staff and food is excellent. Just the manager of the day showed she just did not care. I will also be pasting on Trip advisor so people can see our concerns on management

Absolutely wonderful meal enjoyed today at The Fuzzy Duck. First visit for some of our group, and already planning a return trip. Food was beautifully cooked and presented and the staff were all so welcoming and friendly, and couldn't do enough for us. They really made the meal special. Price was an absolute bargain at 3 courses for £20. Brilliant afternoon. Thanks

Just got home after what was a FANTASTIC meal. The staff are so polite and helpful. The food was exceptional, well cooked and plentiful. It's the 1st time we have eaten at the Fuzzy Duck and it will certainly not be the last. There was never any feeling you were being rushed and the time given from the starter to the main was ideal, bearing in mind the size of the WONDERFUL starter. Thank you to all.

Staff let’s the place down, very rude! I asked a guy who works behind the bar, tall with blonde highlights simply for a cocktail menu and instead of simply giving me one his response was isn’t there one on the table, yes there was one but we wanted another one. Bad attitude! Should be more attentive to customers

First time we’d been and was pleasantly surprised beautifully appointed restaurant. Good choice of cocktails and gins (no price list on gins which was puzzling) wine was a bit pricey. But the food was delicious and a good selection I had the steak and black treacle pie which was fantastic but huge and unusually proper vegetables very yummy. The Char Sui pork was equally lovely. A special occasion or just a treat will definitely go back.

I visited here last night on recommendation from a business partner and as I was in the area thought we would pay a visit. I was extremely please to see a set menu offering such great value for a 3 course feast. All our food was perfectly cooked and served by very attentive staff. My steak was especially tasty.Amazing value, great service.

What a lovely friendly place to eat. I did not like the vegetarian option so they made me a vegetarian toad in the hole which was lovely. This is the only place that has ever catered for me with something not on the menu and made from scratch.

Me and my husband came for an anniversary meal. The restaurant area is lovely. The service was great and the food was delicious. They had a set menu, my husband had meat dishes and I had the vegetarian options. We cleared our plates !! The dessert was a lovely touch with a sharers plate of 3 different items. All were really nice. After our meal we decided to sit in the bar area to have another drink or two before we headed home. The only thing was it was full off younger ones who came out for pre drinks before hitting the clubs. Was a little off putting so we had drink and rang for cab. Maybe if it was a week night it would of been different but it's just the luck of valentine's day being a Friday I suppose

Went for Sunday lunch with my daughter, waited around for service, wished I would have left after I received the food we we’re served, the menu did say king prawns in shell ,,,; never,,, shrimps at best and I was expecting the shell tail on, not to peel the whole shrimp covered in a dry paste, I’ve never seen that in all the quality restaurants I’ve eaten in, whilst this was going on I could see at least two tables sending food back, I realised why when my main meal arrived, cold meat and reheated roast potatoes, which I know because the waiters told us, cold veg side dish,and £55 for the pleasure , you can keep it, where them five star reviews are coming from !!!

Booked weeks in advance for a birthday party. Took constant ringing to confirm the booking, then to confirm the food we had ordered ahead of time. Arrived to an overpriced bar. Was seated and the starter were brought out. The waiter tipped Prawn Cocktail in one of our guests lap to start. Starters were tiny, undercooked and tasteless. Made to wait almost an hr for our mains. Got told others were more important so we had to wait. Waited 30mins for the drinks order to arrive. Food came out, 1 had so much garlic and truffle oil in it was vile, ruined the intire plate, sent back to kitchen. A pizza came out soaked and dripping im grease, was unable to eat. Fishcakes came out dry and tasteless. Many of us left our food. Was disgusting!! Completely ruined the birthday girls night.

Went for my birthday after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor. Lovely cocktails but not impressed with the food. Alhough well presented, such a shame it didn't taste as good as it looked. My starter was cold and my husband prawn cocktail was greatly lacking prawns, lots of lettuce though. Rump of lamb was extremely chewy and although it was supposed to have been 'pink' it was over cooked and the cajun chicken dry and tasted burnt. The children's meals looked lovely and were enjoyed by the little ones. Anything that was deep fried was very greasy and tasted of 'old' cooking oil. We didn't complain to our waiter as he was such a lovely and helpful guy and also because of the occasion didn't want to kick up a fuss. Unfortunately we won't be visiting again. Trying to be something it's not.

Stopped in for Friday lunch as visiting family in the area, it was very quiet (which worried me), but it turned out great. They have a prix fixe menu option in the week, two courses for 12 pounds, three courses for 15 pounds, with three or four choices of starters, mains and desserts including good vegetarian options. We all picked from that prix fixe menu, most of us having starter and main, one of us having main and dessert. Without exception the food we choose was tasty and well made and servings were generous. Service was a little slow, but we were in no hurry so that was not a problem. Recommended.
