The Hind in Rotherham

Lovely food, and deserts were delicious. New blond girl behind the bar and serving food was lovely to chat to and made sure our time there was as good as possible bringing hot drinks over so we didn’t have to stand waiting and checked to see if our food was okay! No waiting about for our mains or deserts either!

Food was lovely, just had little sides together as we sat outside in the beer garden. Felt bad for the young girl behind the bar, was by herself serving for hours while it got very busy. Looked understaffed. Took 15 minutes to get served at the bar, and was a rather long wait on food. Clean pub with good food nonetheless

4 of us eating, 6.45 ordered starters and mains, 3 mains we’d picked were unavailable!! Took 45 mins for starters to appear after chasing and it wasn’t busy! Mains were mediocre at best! Time for a rethink as there’s plenty of competition local to it! In a nut shell it’s spoons quality at double the price.

First time visit to The Hind, last Saturday early evening with my partner and my young nephew. Wasn't too busy so managed to find a table straight away. Went to the bar to open a tab and it took almost 15 minues to get served with drinks. After we'd decided what to eat, I ventured back to the bar which took another 10 mins. Two of the three items were not available which meant going back to the table and then back again. I ordered the spicy chicken burger and fries, scampy and chips, and the kids fish fingers. The food came quick to be fair, however, there were hardly any fries with my burger, it was not spicy, the lettuce was old and brown and was smelly (see photo), and the bacon, we'll a decent vet could have saved that pig (see photos). Although a small thing, the peas with the fish fingers looked like they'd been boiled for an hour. My partner went to get another drink whilst we were eating and that took ages again. Not once during or after the meal did anyone come and ask how the food was which really annoyed me because I wanted to tell them about the food. I tried to get the servers attention a few times too. Eventually after waiting 15 minutes after the meal, we just decided to pay the tab and leave. Again, when paying I wasn't asked how anything was. Honestly, you might as well go to the homestead down the road and eat similar meals for less money (same company but a Sizzler). One last thing, they need to clean the upholstery on the seats as it is scruffy and fix the gents toilets because after a while, all we could smell was urine last sat at thw table. Never again, wouldn't waste my money.

Awful Don't bother the lowest quality food I ever had in a pub. I will tell you why. Ordered Shared Nachos for 2 £8 plus can remember the exact price may as well got a single bag of Doritos and put ketchup on and a blob of Mayo honestly no thought into the presentation poor quality not even warm not a trace of cheese, absolutely appalling it wasn't worth £1 never mind £8.50. Wife said her sea bass was ok just the smallest you'd ever seen in your life. I had a burger ...actual meat in burger was ok to be fair but the bread was a terrible (greasy spoon) type cheap bread roll cheese was rubbery and just presented like a it had all been thrown on a plate. Chips 'old and cold ' so sent them back. Ordered 2 side dishes, but only one came and then the onion rings were just a greasy soggy mush of rubbish. If you are driving down Bawtry Road drive past this place as it really has got a lot to learn about presentation. Good points it is cheap Beer is ok and the mainly male waiters try, but its obvious they are embarrassed by the quality of the food they put in front of you. Drive on turn a left at Whiston Crossroads there are at least 3 pubs down the road doing things so much better

Not much so say, very hot inside, poor customer services, high prices for sub quality food, will not be coming back I’m afraid.

Been for a meal Friday. Central heating still being fixed. Food came quick and hot. Good quality but overpriced ie sausage and mash £10 with NO vegetables! We had a problem paying, tried paying with a new gift card but the assistant said the card did not work as the internet was down she tried several times !! I’m not sure I believed her as this had happened a couple of times before at this pub? and had to pay on my Visa card which was an accepted straight away funny enough ! Plus my app did not update my visit as the internet was still not working! Ironic when I had an email from Ember saying make sure you update your app visit! The pub was packed with just 2 people serving at peak time on a Friday night Left very frustrated

The pub was freezing, apparently the heating was (still ) not working, customers all sitting in their coats ! Fire in the bottom room was on but when we asked if the fire in the top room could be lit too, we were told that wasn’t working either. Before viewing the menu I asked which dishes were unavailable as very often you make your choice only to be told your choice is not available. We looked at the menu, chose, I went to the bar with the order … guess what ? The choice we made was unavailable despite not being told five minutes earlier ! Back to the table to pick again ! Frustrating and not a pleasant afternoon we envisaged when choosing this venue.

Honestly, usually decent food but the majority came over cooked tonight. Some of the steaks were like chewing leather, hunters chicken torched from a furnace and onion rings resembling Catherine wheels and with the texture of charcoal. Add to that half the menu not available made for a poor experience unfortunately

Visited the Hind with my daughter had a lovely lunch, great price, thanks to Billy Jo and Kevin for an exceptional service 😁

Booked a table for Sunday lunch, when we got there it was freezing in there, one end had a lovely fire but not ours !! Sorry but too cold for us to eat in there

Niped I’m on our way to visit family, the Food was amazing as always, I had the full English perfect sausage!! and service was lovely thankyou joey you was attentive without being over powering which is what’s needed. Will 100% return in the future

Turned up today (Wednesday lunch) and found a table free although it was busy. We tried to order through the app on the table but this failed before paying. We then tried to order at the bar - however there was only one member of staff behind the bar and generally 4 groups of people trying to be served. Finally on getting to a point of order, some 20 minutes after arriving, we were told there was a min 50 minutes wait for food! It looked likely to be longer as we had only seen two staff bringing food out. Really. If that how you think you can treat and serve customers then you have it very badly wrong. We walked out and non of us will not be returning. I would advise you to go elsewhere if you want something that represents decent service. I reluctantly give it 1 star as you have to give it 1…

What would have been a good experience was left with a sour taste. Upgraded to afternoon cocktail brunch and hands up we arrived 10mins after our booking time due to 'mum life' that said we had booked a 2hour brunch experience and the pub was empty so wasnt like we were taking up wanted table space. There were 4 of us and we ordered our last round of drinks within the 2 hour slot but the bar woman then came over to our table to inform us we had now gone over our time limit due to arriving late (booking was 12 to 2, we arrived at 12:10 and ordered last drinks just after 2pm). After much pleading the manager would not allow us last drinks and we therefore left and spent the rest of the afternoon in another local pub. Such a shame because if we had been allowed the last round within our 2 hours we would have stayed there and spent more money in what seemed a very dead pub! Won't be booking bottomless brunch again here!!!

Came for a family meal and was not disappointed the new manageress Joey was great and very friendly & knowledgeable.. the pints where good and food excellent will deffo return in the future

We went for 'Sunday lunch'with the family , 6 out of the 9 wanted Sunday roast to be told there wasn't enough for us, they could do 6 but then were told 3 was going to someone else, apparently they had been sending meals out with Huber!! Really bad when they have people booked in. 3 had steak that was terrible, very grisly, seabass was like rubber and all chips cold.. to top it off the meals weren't brought out at the same time. We ordered 5 desserts which were ok however again brought at different times, first one had eaten before the last 2 were brought out. Everything was poor, no apology what so ever even when we were asked if everything was ok, wouldn't recommend and wouldn't go again, very disappointed and it wasn't that busy☹️

Went for lunch, placed our order and drinks, drinks arrived ..dirty glasses ! was not a busy time but meals took 40 mins. A box was bought over with cutlery/ condiments...cutlery dirty still had food on, salt and pepper pots had rust on, salt was damp would not Sprinkle, food not nice, the place needs a good clean and tidy, and definitely needs decorating, paint bubbling on walls toilets walls scruffy ..staff miserable, .Embers pubs used to be nice...Will not be returning

The staff here are so rude and need training on customer care, never enough staff (probably because they are so slow to serve), always run out of the meals you wanted. Food is usually good and would be great if only the staff were nice to customers.

Went to The Hind for dinner on a sunday in September 23 Positives Very good value food, we had the mixed grill and chicken burger, very good Belgian waffles dessert amazing Spacious pub and friendly service Good selection of beers and soft drinks including rose lemonade Easy to get to but do need a car to get there Negatives App didn’t include all options i.e couldn’t add extras and didnt have mixed grill Would recommend this pub but a relaxed lunch or dinner

Relaxed evening, meal as always spot on no complaints on that, beer was a little disappointing tho should of been a Taylor’s served in a Guinness glass & the head on it soon went as well.

Visited for a family meal, 1st time visiting, the service was slow despite it not being busy and the pub appeared under staffed but the staff were friendly. The meal was okay but nothing special and not worth returning to try anything else The appearance...

Went with meat eating partner and vegan buddy. Overall, there was something for everyone. My advice would be to order on the app using the QR code on the table, for some reason they had an expanded menu on there which wasn't described fully on...

Called in for a last minute meal en route home. Was really pleasantly suprised by the menu and the offers were great. Had the set menu and all the food was great! Particularly recommend the nachos! The staff were great too! Thank you!

Just been for a Sunday lunch. Underwhelming. Had the sirloin which was over cooked and tough, frozen veg, hard roasted potatoes and seemed like Aunt Bessie’s Yorkshire. Pudding was nice. Think the chef could push the boat out and make some fresh veg.

Thank you to the team Who were working very hard & still smiling. We went in late and though busy our food came quick & plentiful. Great prices considering the current prices

Visited The Hind early evening, not having booked a table. Drinks order taken straight away several tables .were available and we were sat near the fireplace. Food order given for starters and mains. This was delivered promptly, with a smile and presented very well indeed....

Visited the Hind for a relaxed bottle of wine and a bite to eat. Far from relaxing. Loud disco and booming base music, so ambiance was totally lost. I have visited the Hind for friendly and family meals previously and really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere....

Lovely visit to the hind. Delicious food and amazing staff. Visited with my brother and husband for my birthday and they really went out of there way to make it special. Will definitely be returning 10/10 for service and 10/10 for food

Bottomless brunch a steal £25 for all in cocktails & breakfast for 2 of us. Great value and the toast was a good quality bloomer

It’s nice to see this pub doing well after the recent pandemic. Food as good as it gets for pub grub always well presented, but the staff are what makes it a good pub to visit. Excellent service nothing too much trouble.

Just had another beautiful meal here at the hind. Nothing to much trouble and so friendly Well worth a visit anytime 😊

The Hind is within walking distance for our party of 10. The room was warm and inviting, the gas fire was on full which was lovely. The bar was well lit and staff attentive. Our food came out within 30 minutes, but didn't notice time...

Sea bass was delicious . Surprised to see it on a pub menu . Would have been perfect if the skin were crispy though.

Friendly staff, decent atmosphere. The outside area is great especially in the summer time with plenty of tables and space around them. Dog friendly also. Plenty of drinks options and the pub quiz makes for good occasion too.

We came for the 50% offer. The place was really busy but staff managing it well and still making sure everyone sanitised and did their track and trace. Tables had sufficient space between them and every time someone left; everything was sanitised, including the chairs and any touch points near by. Our food was excellent value for what we paid and they staff were helpful with everything

Always come here now. The staff are friendly, helpful and ensure that the covid measures are been kept. They help you with your track and trace and show you to your table. Everywhere looks spotlessly clean. Foods been great recently, and even better at 50% off. The bar staff always makes polite small talk with you and have a smile on their faces.

We came with friends and really pleased we did. We felt safe because of how good the covid measures were. Staff were politely enforcing them. Sanitiser was available throughout the pub. Food was gorgeous and a really good price. All the staff that attended our table were polite and friendly

Came for a business meeting. The staff were friendly in helpful in helping me find a table near a plugSocket. They let me use a table for hold my meeting and kept the coffees coming for me. They helped the people I was meeting with their track and trace details. We ended up eating because the food looked good. We were glad we did. This is a cracking little find, I will be returning with my family

Visited tonight, Wednesday 9th of September 2020. I’ve lived in the area for around 3 years and always enjoy visiting this pub as the drinks and food are normally delicious, today is not the same usual standard, I’m sorry to say. Family of 4, booked in advance as every time I’ve tried to booked recently, its been fully booked. Had to leave Track and Trace Details on entry to the pub, which is all done promptly. We ordered drinks and food at the bar, and saved 50% off the mains, which is a bonus. I ordered a starter for my eldest Daughter and she had Karaage Chicken, this consisted of two chicken boulders on a side plate with cucumber, pepper and Katsura dipping sauce. The portion size was very disappointing, two chicken boulders was a poor portion for a starter.When the main meal was served, Myself and my Daughter had a ribeye steak meal each, the steak was very fatty. We both wished we had ordered the sirloin steak instead. I’ve had steak here before and it has always been spot on previously. My Husband ordered a Chicken and Ribs meal, the meal only covered half of the plate because it was filled mainly with salad and coleslaw. The portion size of the Chicken Breast was tiny and the Ribs were over cooked. Lastly, I ordered a Treacle Sponge Pudding with custard and my Husband had a Caramel Apple Crumble Pie with Custard. When these deserts arrived, the Apple Crumble was the smallest slice, and both deserts came with smallest amount of custard. It didn’t even cover half of the sponge pudding or crumble. The Server, never once asked if our meals were ok, and I felt the staff were not very attentive. I don’t like leaving a bad review but I feel really disappointed with tonight’s service. Sorry to say, we will go else where for a Family Meal.

We came here and even though it was busy, we felt safe. The tables were well spaced out, clear signs about what to do. Everything was explained as the host sat us down. The staff were politely enforcing the covid safety to those that chose the to ignore the info they were told on the door or any of the signs. Which was really positive to see. It made me feel like they took both my safety and theirs seriously. The meals arrived quickly and were very nice. I had a pint of ale and was gorgeous. All the staff we interested with were polite and friendly.

we visited here to take advantage of the eat out to help out and was totally disappointed. we were told there would be a 45 minute wait for food which we accepted but when the food arrived it was overcooked and burnt, also we did not have any cutlery so had to wait for that on this occasion i would not recommend

Only been to a few places post lockdown but I will be returning here. It was great. Clear and good covid measures in place and staff ensuring people are adhering to them. We were tracked and traced on the door and shown to our tables. The staff were friendly and helpful. All our meals were delicious

Me and another visited today for food. Prior to entering The Hind, we logged onto the track and trace app and sanitised our hands as instructed. We waited at the entrance door for a good while, with staff clearly noticing our presence but choosing not to greet us into the building.After some time, we decided to enter the building. We were greeted by an abrupt gent who possessed no people skills. We were then seated at our table. The table itself was wobbly and weak, and was situated very close to the bar area. We found this worrying, considering COVID-19, as food and drinks had to be ordered at the bar. Customers were able to order food and drinks on the app, but the Eat Out to Help Out discount would not be applied, which seemed pointless.Whilst deciding what food to order, we continued to see customers queing outside the building who again, were not being greeted. We also heard other staff being abrupt and rude to customers and what seemed like zero organisation amongst the staff. Finally, we decided to exit The Hind as we were no longer interested in having our meal.

We found this venue to be showing prime examples of how to do things safely after corona. Tables were spaced out, sanitiser all over the place, safe distance marked out at the bar. The staff were friendly and helped me with the app when ordering. The food was served quickly and was of a good quality.

We started coming here recently and glad we did. The staff are always quick to greet you and say hello. Most ask questions about your day and make nice small talk with you. They are always happy to swap things on meals to your liking which is great. One lady made a massive effort with my kids and was talking to them and helped them to santisize their hands because they are scared to do it. She was brilliant. She did mention she normally works at a school. She’s a credit to you. The way she was with my autistic boy is amazing. I cannot thank you enough. We usually have melt downs when we try to eat out but not at your place. Please pass on my thanks to her

We used to come here a lot before lockdown. It has Always had super helpful and nice staff. They always take time to help me and my Husband and carry drinks for us. We use the set menu a lot. Very good value for my money. The food is lovely and served by happy waitresses. We were here wednesday day time; sat on the round table near a window, the landlady showed us everything and really settled my husband who was sacred to come out after the corona thing. Thank you for taking time when you was busy to show my husband all the new things you do now. It really settled him. We saw you constantly spraying your hands, tables, chairs, bar, doors things like that all time tile. While busy and you still had a smile on your face. At one point we even saw you singing away as you were working. It was nice to see happy staff after someone of the other places we’ve been.

4 of us visited for a couple of drinks and food. Had to log into app before been allowed in. On been seated outdoors we ordered drinks, even though there was only 10 people which included us 4, 20 mins later our drinks still hadn't arrived, my wife went in pub and asked if our order had been received, 3 staff were stood talking and 1 checked and saw order had come thru, no apology for delay . Ordered food this took approx 50 mins to reach us, gods knows how they would cope when the pub gets full.The food was overpriced for what was basic and below average food, service with a smile does not apply to this establishment and I can say without doubt none of us will be returning. There are plenty more pubs/restaurants locally where you could spend your hard earned cash and have far superior service and food.

The title says it all. The food was brilliant, super good value. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. So helpful, polite and friendly staff

First time back in the hind since lockdown. Unfortunately we will not be returning. New staff, none of which made us feel welcome, in fact we were treated like we were a nuisance. We asked to sit outside as the weather was nice, and I prefer to sit outside in the current situation. The response was less than positive, the lady just scowled at us and became rather huffy, like we were really putting her out. We went outside and the tables were wet, so I asked if they had a cloth to wipe it down. The lady just walked off. I waited a while and no one came back so I went to find another member of staff, who looked at me aghast that I wanted a cloth to wipe the wet table, she passed me a wet cloth. At this point we decided to abandon the Hind and go to the Homestead, who are always welcoming and accommodating. We also had to leave by the same door that people were coming in. I found that very odd as there are various fire exits that could be used to avoid people crossing over. In summary, don’t choose the Hind if you want to feel welcome and considered.

We felt it was very safe and extremely well laid out for the new covid ways. Staff were professional and reinforcing the covid measures. Our food was good and extremely good value.

We came for the government eat out offer. The place was busy but managed safely. The ladies that were working were friendly, full of smiles and helped with any questions we were asked. They seem to be laughing and joking between themselves while running round crazy busy. They appeared to keep people waiting outside and filtering them in to keep things safe at the bar. We noticed as the queue went down at the bar, more were then allowed in. Excellent work girls, way to keep things spaced out and covid safe. Everyone seemed to be working really hard. We were surprised at the amount of food we got for 50% off. Wow incredible. This offer is making everywhere so cheap. It’s great.

We had a cask pint and it was gorgeous. Really good covid measures were in place and the barmaid had a good laugh with me while getting my drinks. Such a good time in the hind

We decided to visited on Monday to use the 50% off voucher the government started. The three ladies working that day were extremely friendly and helpful and explained how the new ways work. They showed me how to scan to do our tack and trace then how to order at the bar. The lady behind the bar was as friendly as the one who seated us. The food we received was excellent value and Amazed how much you get for the price. We are going to book to return again. We had a wonderful time. Thank you to the girls and the chef for our first successful visit out after lockdown.

We come here very often now because of the staff. They always seem to pay interest in us and greet us with big smiles. They are helpful and show us how to order and pay now everything’s a bit different with covid. They work extremely hard and are constantly cleaning and working away. They still take time to come and say hello to me and my friends. They do a set lunch meal deal. It’s cheap, tasty and good portion sizes. It’s become one of our favourites for ladies day
