The Gate Inn in Bassetlaw

Kathy & Alan are superb, Great buffets for any occasion. Friendly service .

Sadly they weren't doing food so I'm unable to comment on that. This has to be one of the friendliest pubs I've stopped at. They allowed me to park overnight in the car park. The staff were great and the locals were really friendly! Lovely wine served, great atmosphere and conversation. Child friendly up until 8pm but then children have to be out. Highly recommend and I'd definitely stop there gain.

Stop over with motor home.. The pub was excellent staff very welcoming.. No meals but could order a takeaway delivered to pub and all plates etc supplied by the pub. Couldn't fault the premises staff and the locals were friendly as well. All in all would recommend.

Always made to feel very welcome here, proper local pub feel and the kids play area is great - definitely recommended.

Excellent family friendly, local pub with a fantastic outdoor area. Inside, the bar offers a great selection of drinks served by welcoming, friendly and attentive staff.

Great granddaughter birthday party great place staff good

Typical nice pub interior. Good drink variety, reasonable prices. Free Entertainment ( female vocalist ) good. Enjoyable time. Always clean & tidy inside. ( Forgot this earlier ! Sorry !) Staff friendly. Decent friendly clientele.. Nice outside area / decking/ beer garden to to rear of pub Ample free parking.

All good nice people staff and customers.

Had my husbands wake at the Gate inn the food was lovely and landlords were very accommodating everyone said that it was a good spread and a lovely atmosphere too thank you Gate inn for making a very hard day much easier

Keeping music live. Great beer and great landlords.

Called in one Sunday afternoon, ended up staying & havin a few in there, a good day was had

Was really busy but soon served nice family pub

Lovely traditional pub. We drop in maybe 5-6 times a year when visiting family in the area, and the owners and staff always recognise us and give us a friendly welcome.

Very nice place, great staff good atmosphere.

We stopped over in a motor home. Lovely welcome by staff and landlords. Great beer. No food served but they provided takeaway menus and plates for us to eat our delivered curry in the bar. Will be back

Good place for a pint, a friendly lot!

Brilliant team, brilliant food, good quality service and very sociable staff, overall opinion, well satisfied.

I loved the food on first time one recommendation the Teriyaki Salmon would of been better on a bed of rice traditional Japanese way

Complete strangers but we were made so welcome. Thanks all. Especially the snooker! Great bunch of guys

Very friendly. Great quality local village pub.

Great local pub with a great atmosphere, now having live acts as well, Cathy and Corky the owners are two of the nicest people you could meet

Thank you so much for the beautiful buffet yesterday for my dads funeral. Everyone commented on how good it was, Cathy catered for everyone’s dietary needs, making dairy free scone’s so no was excluded from the beautiful spread

Fantastic venue, great buffet, brilliant evening, lovely staff .

Would like to thank Mudfords for doing an amazing job with the marquee. Mandy Palmer for doing the best buffet I’ve ever seen. Russ Brett for the great job of entertaining my guests plus family and Cathy at the Gate and her amazing bar staff who made sure everything ran smooth I had an amazing birthday and if I was to have another function I certainly would use The Gate again. Highly recommend this place for any social events.

Couldn’t of picked a better place to have my mums 60th birthday party! Their garden was a perfect place for the marquee and it looked amazing!! Cant thank the staff enough for looking after over 100 people all night keeping their drinks full 🥂 if your looking for somewhere to host your party/function then the gate is the one🤍 once again Thank you!

Enjoyed visit for friends 60th party staff very friendly

Went to a 60th birthday party and it was amazing there was a marquee in the gardens by Mudfords and it was beautiful. The food was amazing catered by Mandy Cooper and the bar staff were brilliant every single one of them couldn’t do enough for you. The whole evening ran brilliant. Thankyou Cathy for hosting the party at your establishment.

One of the best for miles friendly staff and Land Lady good beer took my Wife in today for the first made very welcome by Land Land and they had a chat just wish I lived nearer

Fantastic evening with great chilli and chips. Thank you

Lovely garden to sit in and always friendly x

Wow where do i start with this 5* review. On the 16th Of July me and my husband got married with our venue being at the Gate inn Ordsall. We approached Cathy, 2 years ago to secure our date and have been in talks for the past year to ensure our day was absolutely perfect. My oh my was it. We expressed our feelings about our wedding to Cathy on what we was wanting for the big day and she went above and beyond. The Catering was absolutely spot on, even our fussy eaters in the family were telling us how much they enjoyed all the food for the day and night time. All our guests were looked after all day and night by Cathy and her amazing team of hard workers. Thank you all for everything you did to make our day outstanding. The Gate Inn is honestly a hidden little gem and not appreciated enough. If i could give more than 5* i would!

Lovely place to have a drink on a warm day. A credit to Ordsall.

Love this place! Friendly atmosphere & always welcoming! Get ready for the pool games & leave the coaches in the car park! Calky 👍🏼👍🏼 Thanks for Mini Cheddars Andy 🤐

My sister and mother went to this place yesterday and they got double charged for a round of drinks, when confronted about the double charge they claimed only one payment went through and the second payment would of come back the following day, this hasn’t been the case. Also they decided to do a second round and was over charged 10p. After reviewing on there Facebook they received nothing but abuse from the establishment. This is terrible customer service and very disappointing. I would advise avoiding this place entirely since clearing customers are not treated well.

Fantastic local pub really great staff always accommodating lovely and clean. Great venue if you are wanting a party

Excellent, service at the Gate Ordsall, always a smile from staff, and they always remember how you like your drink. And if you've had one of Cathy's scones then you are very lucky indeed. Brilliant pub and great atmosphere!

This is a great place to go everyone made so welcome and the staff so friendly and helpful can’t wait to go back

Great pub! Staff are always friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Always enjoy my time here and recommend it to friends for a great night out.

Lovely village local , great place to have a relaxing drink . Always a warm welcome .

We used the Gate Inn to have my husband's celebrationof life. The food they put on was lovely great atmosphere very friendly staff and land lady. Thank you for making a hard day turn into a very pleasant one.

I used The Gate Inn for my husband's celebration of life. They had put on a lovely selection of food. The atmosphere was very relaxed. The staff were very nice and the landlady was very nice. My children and partners stayed and there was music on and they had a good time. I want to say thank you for making a hard day turn into a good one. Thanks again.

It was after my friends funeral and the staff were great 👍 I had some great company of my own and we had a really good time, very nice pub.

Decent local pub, good drink selection and reasonable prices

Attended a wake there, great food, beautiful open fires & a lovely friendly landlady. The hidden gem of Retford!

Good staff. Friendly and good food.

Brilliant pub, perfect play areas

Good food and lovely views of the canal

This place was really nice. The food was excellent and the staff were exceedingly helpful.

Fantastic atmosphere, beer poured as it should be ,,by fully trained staff,,excellent place to meet and unwind

Very much a locals only pub. The beer is fine and the pub is clean and tidy, with a good garden area. I just didn't feel at all welcome as an outsider.

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Clean not lost any of its charm.

We went to the Sunday Lunch Carvery as a group of four. The quality was good and the servings were huge. Very good value. We would definitely go again.

Great atmosphere and lovely pint with a nice beer garden for the children.

Had Sunday lunch lovely food and great value

Super little pub . Friendly and helpful

Friendly and welcoming. Well worth a visit. Would recommend to everybody. Good food and good beer. What more could you ask for?

This is a REAL pub not the plastic pub playing at being a local . The landlord , landlady and staff are really friendly

Will never book again as they can't get their bookings correct and can't even apologise for putting people out when a reservation was made and they were at fault!

Great little village family pub. No food but everything else you'd expect from a village boozer

Very warm wellcome shall go again

Lovely atmosphere. Its always a pleasure to drink here.

Had my dads 70th birthday meal here today. Fantastic food, amazing desserts and lovely staff. Will definitely be back. Thank you to all the staff, we had a lovely time.

Beautiful garden, ideal for the party we attended. Cheap drinks, all round good atmosphere.

Enjoyed our visit to the gate this weekend. Food was lovely and owners were very welcoming. Will definitely be returning soon.

Lovly country style pub. Highly recommended

We went here during a caravan trip, just up the road at Longholme Farm. Nice warm smiles all round from the moment we arrived, and lovely food. We couldn’t find a taxi to take us back, so the manager gave us a lift back. So kind! Highly recommended!

Lovely friendly pub. We're always made to feel welcome.

Good beer , nice to sit outside now the bridge is closed.

Brilliantly run lovely decor stunning building lovely location original pub in old part of village opposite All Hallows' medieval church . It's like drinking at home with friends .cannot recommend it enough. Like it that much a location for my up and coming 60th was never a issue .another review to come?

Nice and warm friendly atmosphere

This is my local brilliant pub great atmosphere beer and food are fantastic 90% of the time and sports always shown on big screen would definitely recommend.

A locals pub, do a nice Sunday roast.

Not been to the building for a long time and now wow it's a really nice place

Attended a function here, decor in the pub was nice, food was good, didn't hear any complaints about the beer from the husband!

Best local atmosphere in Ordsall

Warm friendly atmosphere, food fantastic, well worth a visit.

Lovely friendly atmosphere. Landlord and landlady couldn't be nicer.

Good selection of beer and Sunday lunches are excellent (though not available every week). Pool table is good too

After my son and his two cousins had been Christened at All Hallows church (literally across the road) we had booked The Gate Inn as a reception venue. The Gate did all the buffet catering and allowed us to hire in a bouncy castle for the gardens, this along with there own fantastic facilities for children really helped to keep the little one entertained. The food itself was plentyfull and truly excellent, the staff where absolutely brilliant in doing all they could to help make the day run as smoothly as possible, and that is no small task when 150 plus people all turn up at once! Thank you for helping to make it such a fantastic day.

As usual we had an exceptional meal. The starter of tomato and red onion soup was delicious. The main meals of ribeye steak and sausage and mash with onion gravy was excellent. The sweet of boost cheesecake was one of the best desserts ever tasted. The choice of wines was fabulous and look forward to sampling them again.

Great pub, friendly atmosphere, Lovely friendly staff, Awesome Sunday dinners cooked by the lovely landlady Cathy x
