Great halloween atmosphere tonight at the lodge. Super service at bar from sharkey and Emily . Full house and entertaining music. Staff busy serving and waitressing.

Really nice selection of food and it's all amazing! Good range of drinks, really friendly staff and good atmosphere:) x

Chain food and clearly reheated as opposed to cooked on sight. Lots of items not available. What new had was ok and good quantity and not expensive. Flatbread was a bit soggy. Some chicken overcooked. Pie had too much pastry. Adequate and at least speedy service.

We had a lovely meal at the lodge. Staff and service was good. Great company and fantastic atmosphere. I would recommend it.

Another great evening out here. A fantastic steak, no fat, well presented and at a reasonable price. Not to be missed early in the week, one of the specials. Highly recommended

Great evening with drinks and chat. Atmosphere friendly and good music. Nice catch up after long week putting the world to rights.

Great local, decent food and good place to watch the game. Also good outdoor space with outdoor TV. Good beer selection too.

Great service with a smile from Emily at the bar. Good atmosphere and music. Nice catch up drinks with friend after their holiday.

This place is great to bring my family and friends to grab drinks and food (chips) very well organised and good hospitality

Lodge best pub in derby, great quiz night, great staff, if you’re in derby get yourself down to the lodge Alvaston especially on a Tuesday.

We love coming to the quiz every Tuesday. Recently her a new menu which has been fab to try! Good atmosphere, staff, and drinks.

Great food/drink with the work crew and the best quiz host in the UK, great staff as well Car park lighting could do with improvement.

Absolutely blinding place to eat with mega friendly helpful staff - food was lovely in a relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely recommend 👊

Nice pub for drinks and food and the staff are all lovely. Good selection of drinks and food available :) definitely try here if you haven't been

Great food great service in a relaxed friendly environment and had a great time. Would definitely recommend to others.

All 3 of us really enjoyed our dinners.There was abit of a wait but it was worth the wait.The food was piping hot & very tasty,perfect infact. Highly recommended

All three meals were very poor, One ordered medium rare steak and it came out well done honestly it was like chewing through a brick all three of us had steaks and they were all the same so chewy and hard as well as this my flatbread just had chunks of fat on it. disappointing as i’ve always like green king chain pub food. Looked like the lady was running food by herself so she must of been rushing but we didn’t even have cutlery on our table when our food arrived nor were we told if we had to get it ourself, no check back on our food so couldn’t even mention how bad the quality of our meals were.

Great food and drink, we have been before but this was great tonight the best it’s been for along time. Friendly, polite staff

Great atmosphere tonight with friends for catch up drinks. Served by Emily at the bar, service with a smile as usual. Good music and good chats between us.

Wow what a meal 🤗 was so nice took my dad out for steak and he’s so happy thank you to the chief cammy and the bar staff minna Sarah cassi will defo be back again next week

We visited with our 7 month old granddaughters for lunch. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was top quality.

We’ve been here for lunch. We sat outside. We had the chicken mix and a hamburger. Food is fine, good atmosphere, good choice of beers. Ordering through the app is very easy

We came to The Lodge for their stay and play 10-12 on a Thursday, the staff were so lovely and baby had a wonderful time meeting new people and playing with a good selection of toys. The grown ups had a nice natter, drink and relax. We stayed for lunch afterwards, enjoyed the BOGOF burger deal, and was pleasantly surprised to find they sell baby food too so even baby had a nice treat. Definitely coming again!

Service was quite slow, waited about 50 minutes for food and 20 for drinks. The waitresses, however, were lovely. Cassie and Natalie, served my friends and I and made sure we were alright; definately deserve recognition.

Natalie completely ran the show today, never stopped for a breath, suddenly got so busy and her high standards of customer service never wavered. Amazing member of staffalso Pete, Ian and Irene are assets to this pub, constant friendly customer service that is so sincere

Saskia and everyone on shift was very lovely all night, they apologised politely for our wait and the service was great all night.

Great value and great food as always, we had an amazing experience. Loved all the food and drinks. Well done to the all staff.

So my partner and I decided to eat here.Called and managed to book on the same day for the evening. Arrived and was shown to table. Ordered food and drinks which went ok however I witnessed 2 members of staff (one possibly the manager) standing behind the bar serving drinks with their face masks under their chin! This actually gave me really bad anxiety as I couldn’t believe my eyes when the female bar staff member was whistling all over the drinks she just poured with the mask under her chin. Food was nice, cooked well but the drinks… 20 mins to arrive each time ordered. The deserts came before the finalDrinks meaning we didn’t really want them by the time they’d arrived, as wanted to leave by then. Work needed on the fluidity of drinks and please… wear your masks properly!!!!

Lovely meal we all enjoyed it. Very friendly and helpful staff. we were served by Sadkia We recommend a visit

Seven of us came for a family meal today and the food was absolutely lovely, staff are very friendly and always happy to help. Will call again and great value for money.

Lovely food, staff very helpful. Made us all welcome. We are were served by Cassi, Saskia, Irene and lauren.

We've been here a couple of times this week already and I don't have a bad thing to say! The food is great, the staff are really friendly and the service has been first class. Cassi and Irene were especially wonderful!

Usually can’t fault the Lodge for food having eaten here a million times before. Tonight we waited an hour for two burgers, they came without apology or acknowledgement for our wait. We also waited a good while for drinks each time we ordered, 20/25 mins a time. The ordering app does work well which is a positive. Burger buns were rock hard and we couldn’t work out if they were well toasted or half toasted and half really stale. No salt or pepper, no vinegar, two sachets of sauce per person only and a lack of staff to ask for help with these things. We understand it’s been rough for pubs over the last year but we were really disappointed with tonight!

Great service from Sal, breakfast was spot on and very well organised all COVID procedures spot on highly recommend

i would like to thank all of the staff that supported with our two table socially distanced birthday party for my daughters 18th birthday. it was so nice for her to see her brother and nana . The food and drinks were all served by friendly helpful staff. Food was great as usual and all came out together even though we were over two tables. Would highly recommend to any family for a legal get together.

Service is great, staff are friendly, wide range of drinks selection and the food is on point love love love it

Beautiful steak, friendly service and very welcoming considering all the current restrictions, felt safe during our stay...thank you

This is the best pub I’ve been to whilst social distancing is in place. H and the team have got it spot on. Love quiz nights on a Tuesday with Freddie. Food, drinks, service is always spot on

Came for some drinks and food. Was frowned up on for not using the app and requesting table service then food took 30 minutes to arrive despite atleast 5 workers and place being quite empty. Also we ordered 4 drinks with 1 of the drinks for someone sat away from us, we asker this to be taken from him and the response was "he can come and get it". Our food light was on green for ready for atleast 10 minutes and then it was taken off only when we complained and asked where our food was. I will not order food from here again or a drink for someone not say with us if it means me having to get up with a mask and tray to take it to him myself.

Really enjoyed our family meal at the Lodge. Us:Mum, dad, toddler (3yrs) and baby (just turned 1 yr).Food:Better than average pub food. Whole family enjoyed respective food.Service:Served by: Cassi, Minna and Lauren.Very friendly and helpful; door held open for buggy, courteous and polite.Used the app to order/pay which was an easy experience and both parents could stay with the kids.COVID-19:Well setup, felt safe. Heard a waitress challenge a customer who started to leave table without a mask which is great they are enforcing the rules.Others:Plenty of car parking spaces.

Went for drinks with friends on Saturday was served by Cassi who was very helpful & made to feel welcome & safe.

Very lucky to have The Lodge Alvaston close by. Excellent friendly service as always especially during the current COVID-19 restrictions, & this time Cassi couldn't do enough to assist even though we had her running backwards and forwards to our table.

I’m writing this waiting for the food to come out - I wanted to give a shout out to the lovely waitress Natalie, she was very helpful, polite and does an absolutely fantastic job

Brilliant service and excellent food. The quiz was great fun too. Love this place would come again with the family

I am a regular visitor of this pub & felt it was time to finally write a review! Visited today with my partner & child for food & as always received excellent service! I was served by the lovely Samantha today, whilst taking our order she took the time to engage in conversation with my little boy whilst all the time remaining very professional, an asset to your company! Food was served quickly & tasted great as always! Even in these uncertain times they remain as professional as ever & I’ll most certainly return again!

We popped in here today for a quick lunch, not been in for years. It happened to be steak day - how's that for perfect timing? For just £5 we had a good steak and everything on the plate was piping hot - that rarely happens at a pub chain (in my opinion).The place felt really safe, everyone was helpful and Cassi never stopped cleaning - everything that stopped still got sanitized!! Well done to everyone at The Lodge.

Team Irene and Minna - very impressed with food and service. Felt very safe. This is our local pub and would definitely recommend

Great place, Natalie told us to leave a review, absolutely wicked!! The covid rules are bang on, not catching it here!!

We always come to the lodge as it is our local pub/restaurant and we are always impressed with the food and the staff!
