Nice view, nice food, good service, this is a very pleasant lunch spot just off the A1 and very dog friendly too. We'd definitely stop here again.

Visited one afternoon mid week, the landlady was lovely and couldn't have made us feel more welcome. We then went back on Saturday and had lunch, again a lovely atmosphere and great food. A lovely village pub that's a great asset to the village

Attended the new ‘Taster’ menu tonight showcasing a new menu and new chef who will work alongside Tom. Fabulous food. Not a hint of pretentiousness but good honest plates that will go splendidly with a glass of wine or pint of beer. Garlic bread and baked Brie, sausages, pate, pita bread and dips, Mac and cheese, the list was endless. Great night, fab food and a new updated menu. Congratulations Ande and team, you’ smashed it xx

Cold and uninviting. Ham sandwich fine but had to ask for more ham on my ploughman's lunch as just a scrap on my plate. Empty on a Friday afternoon. Beautiful place could be so lovely. Woman serving spent her time on phone.

Used to be a friendly awesome pub Now it’s run by a difficult rude battle axe who might be alright if she feels like it but more than likely make you feel as welcome as Jeremy Clarkson at a Stop The Oil rally Such a shame as the Ferry used to be a favourite place to go and chill out

This pub is a real hidden Gem. The front of the pub is metres away from a quiet part of the river Trent with views of the Green wild British Country side. Friendly staff and the meals were amazing with crispy roast potatoes ! It was only a small wedding reception but the staff accommodated fantastically. Thank you Ande

Shocking seeing landladies dogs off lead at a dog friendly pub bother and run at customers dogs. One couple clearly had a dog that was not friendly and a couple had dogs that were snapped at by these dogs. When she did turn up she didn’t say anything to the owner’s straight away and just ignored the incident. Thankfully I didn’t have my dog with me as If these dogs had come running and snapping at my mastive they would have not come out the incident as well. The fact that both groups of owners didn’t kick up a stink stunned me cos I would have. I’ve always found this a lovely dog friendly pub but I’m re thinking coming again. Shouldn’t have to worry about the landladies dogs bothering customers in a dog friendly pub. I definitely won’t be taking my boy back there

We visited today for Sunday lunch and were extremely happy with our meal, all fresh veg home made yorkies and plenty of meat. Husband had the vegetarian wellington that he thoroughly enjoyed, staff were attentive and friendly. But sadly we saw a young girl verbally abused by a man in his 60s and his wife because after 25 minutes they hadn't gotten their meal, this young lady was very professional and kept her calm and was very polite despite him swearing in her face. Well done team Ferry we will absolutely be back.

What has happened to our local? It has become a friends club for the new owner, with most of the rest of its customers being ignored. Lived locally for 12 years. Always used this pub. Last 3 times left waiting for 5-10 minutes to be served whilst the owner sits and chats to mates. Staff behind bar often on their own and rushed off their feet. Don't want to lose this pub but not sure I want to go back either. A local should be a friendly welcoming escape from a stressed day, not a hit and miss "am I going to be spoken to or not today" experience. Much improvement needed.

Enjoyed a lunch here, sat outside by the River Trent. It's a while since we've visited this country pub, so good to return. Unfortunately, for us, they'd been quite busy with food, so our first choice wasn't available, and we weren't told that my second choice wasn't available until it was delivered to the table - a totally different veggie burger. No garnish, just the burger and chips, so okay, but not really anything special. Will try again though, great setting.

Had eaten here years ago on way to Norfolk and recently found our way back there and were looking forward to lunch. There was no one in the bar, had to wait around 5 minutes for drinks order to be taken. Then told we were too late for lunch, had missed cutoff by 8 minutes! People were still eating outside and had their dessert order taken well after we arrived. We would have settled for a basic sandwich, but nothing offered. Lovely setting for a pub, shame can't say the same for customer service!

A lovely place to visit. A little out of the way, small and right on top of the river. Unfortunately, the building has the feel of being tired compared to some places and the food menu was a little sparse. Upsides are that the quality of food and punt were good. Also, their staff were very accommodating when it came to asking for a little addition to the sandwich we chose. Would visit again.....👍
