Quality of food for value of money is great. Was very impressed with how serious they took my sons allergy and an extra shoutout to a lovely lady who gave my toddler games and colouring sheets to keep him occupied.

Had fish and chips. Would have preferred cod or haddock but was piping hot and beautifully cooked. The fact it was merely a fish fillet was reflected in the price.

Came here today for the first time with my family and I am very pleased with everything. The prices are very low to the point that we were expecting the food to be mediocre but in all honestly it was delicious and blew us all away. We had 3 mixed grills, a kids fish finger meal, a bowl of chips and a hunters chicken. Everything was excellent, the man who served us gave us a good laugh and was amazing, I'll definitely be back again!

Came with the family last night for my birthday . We all had different dishes and ended with all empty plates .That says it all. Everyone satisfied . Great atmosphere, staff were doing a good job . Things have really been on the up since the refurbishment. Well done Grove.

Recently refurbished, food was good with generous portions at a reasonable price. Some of us tried the dirty chips and reported them as being great. No atmosphere to comment on we visited on a very quiet midweek lunchtime. However this was just what we wanted so a great first visit. Party of 4 had two curry and two burgers and left 4 empty plates :)

We've been to The Grove many times. Finding ourselves visiting Newark Hospital reasonable regularly, The Grove wasn't too far out of the way to have a spot of lunch after appointments. Not to mention, it's really handy for your Lidl shopping too. The pub itself is certainly worth a visit. Never had any issues with the food and the staff and friendly and helpful too. The menu has plenty of choice and even our fussy eating daughter has eaten there. Trust me, if ever there was a ringing endorsement, there it is...

Always love the food the only concern I have at the moment is that you cannot order everything off the menu at the table with the app for some reason all the steak dishes have been taken off the salmon dish is on you main website menu but not on the menu or the app at certain venues. The kids menu deals doesn’t work from the app either.

Staff really helpful, but the pub opened when drinks weren't available. Both myself and the 2 guys before me had to have their drinks delivered to the table because the pumps weren't dispensing. Biggest problem was the cold. I visited on a day when there was freezing fog and the outside temperature was -1, the heating just didn't work. I was shivering, stood it for 40 minutes and checked the radiator on the way out,it was barely tepid.

Food was fine. Prompt service. Friendly staff. 2 elements within the lounge which could be improved. 1- polite encouragement for people not to stand in the doorway smoking for 2 reasons A-unpleasant whilst eating. B-uncomfortable to walk past smokers whilst entering or leaving, could put people off visiting. 2 -The lounge where people eat with their young families is not the ideal place for groups of men to swear at the tops of their voices constantly.(why not the bar?) The ignorance is apparent when talking and short of a word they just slot in the "F" word most of the time . Happy to supply recordings and decibel readings if there is any doubt.

We went to the Grove for my birthday celebration. Bar staff were reasonably friendly. My partner ordered Steak which was cooked perfectly to his liking. I had Hunters chicken, unfortunately the chicken breast was over cooked and completely dried out as was the BBQ sauce and cheese topping, there was no sign of any kind of moisture on the plate at all.. The bacon was cooked more like a crisp, it was black and completely charred. The chips and peas were ok. It was like the hunters chicken had been left in an oven for several hours. I was too embarrassed to complain at the time but will not be returning any time soon.

Stopped off here to break up a long journey on the motorway with 2 hungry children. We were greeted by Rob at the door and shown to a lovely table next to the window close to the bar. Food was absolutely beautiful so filling and great portion sizes. Nothing too much for the staff they couldn’t do enough for us. Will definitely go back again next time we are local! Thanks again to Rob and the team!

Staff were pleasant. Football on TV in the corner. Local pub. Food was OK - Guinness was OK too! Not much to get excited about. We found two other local pubs that didn't serve food on a Sunday so ended up at the Grove. Wouldn't rush back out of choice but it served a purpose.

Visited here today after a walk along the river, was very disappointed. I had a latte which was bitter and my partner a tea which was undrinkable and we both had a scone each,with jam and cream, no butter,which had obviously been frozen and then defrosted, they were hard and crumbly. The most disappointing part was that everything was served in cardboard trays and cups and there were no trays to carry the food out on. This meant that I had to take everything out in two trips, this was not a problem in itself but this all suggests to me that the staff are too lazy to do things properly and to use proper plates, cups and cutlery. So for two virtually inedible scones and two drinks we paid £12 which is daylight robbery and if the staff continue in an this way I can't be see them having a business for much longer especially as all the other cafes etc we saw were very busy.

A lovely little cafe, the gingerbread latte was the best I have had so far this year! The prices are rather steep, especially as it seems a busy little coffee shop!
