The Ned Ludd in Nottingham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Nice relaxing atmosphere for a quick stop for a cold one. Staff are helpful, Friendly and had a laugh which always makes you feel welcome. Only stayed for the one but good location while waiting for my son doing his driving theory test. Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I've never been in this bar before, but it was really busy and vibrant. The fact they can "open up" the side of the pub to join with its outdoor seating gives it an open, European feel to it....and and the drinks and staff were great too!!

Didn't eat on this occasion but fantastic atmosphere to drink with friends

Well, entered, went to loo, sat down, checked the menu. 2 waiters going here and there saw me several times. Put menu down and was ready to order. Waited...waiters came, went to one corner and chatted, not bothering to come and ask...waited again. Got fed up and left! Bad service!

Staff were nice. The bar itself was decent, had a reasonable looking menu and wasn't stupidly expensive. But I needed to use the facilities whilst I was there and the toilets had no doors or even a stall door. It was an unpleasant experience.

Lots of beers and ales to choose from, some you will not find anywhere else in Nottingham!

During our 2 day visit to Nottingham recently we stumbled across this city centre pub for lunch. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and Cian took the time to have a lovely chat with us. There’s plenty of seating and the food is fabulous and such good value. We went for 3 delicious tapas’ that left us wanting more, so much so that we revisited for lunch the following day. This time I had the most wonderful steak and blue cheese sandwich with hand cut fries (how often do you see those these days?) and a delicious dressed salad alongside. It was so, so tasty and incredible value. I can’t rate this place enough. If you get the chance I strongly recommend you pay them a visit.

Please do not eat here. It horrible. Not the only ones complaining. Plastic food.

Some good outside seating, classic choice on tap. Two smaller screens.. mixed seating high chairs and low tables

They didn't have a bitter on. Apart from that was good.

I am in a photography group of about 30, for people with mental health challenges. We have a photography gallery up in Sobar. Six of us went to Ned Ludd today and one of our members went in and asked for the cheapest beer they do. They have difficulties with cognitive disabilities and because of this the manager accused them of being drunk and wouldn't serve him. The security staff were rude and derogatory to some of our members when we questioned why they were descrimating against people with disabilities. The refused to serve us all so we went elsewhere and will do every week from now on. Its a shame because the food is really good and the beer is too but we will not be subjected to discrimination and abuse.

Excellent pint of Guinness. Friendly and helpful staff. Tasty food and great city location. Really enjoyed our visit.

Had Sunday dinner there the pork was dry the lambs shank was tough should fall apart but the veg was lovely dud get plenty

Friendly and has a really relaxed vibe. Good selection of drinks

Pint of lager tasted like vomit. As I said, looking through the comments reveals similar comments problem. So weird and off putting. Edit to reply to comment: Bewildering reply, I don't know why you're attacking me (although I now realise attacking customers is common looking through reviews). Maybe you need to change your glass washer or look at your line cleaner, as it seems a recurring issue, rather than getting angry at customers who bring up issues needing rectified.

Great city centre bar. Lively atmosphere and great choice of beers

Nice pub & friendly staff. Womens loos pretty bad

Really good local pub. Good choice of beers and friendly staff. Toilets could have been cleaner (always a gauge for a good place). Would recommend though.

One of the nicest pubs in Nottingham City centre, always come in for a drink whilst in the city,great staff and atmosphere

Just sad they they are having to close 😪😪😪😪😪😪

Been to this place a few times - the last time for a private party upstairs. Lovely place and usually pretty busy! Food and service was great

Went Monday night was going for a curry but stayed and had steak very good choice and half the price of the calcuta will definitely return

Always love it here. Staff are great, happy and enthusiastic. AMAZING beer and spirit selection and reasonably priced too! The food is incredible! Always love the atmosphere in here, and the love acts they have on are top notch!

popped in with family for food (5 of us) were not disappointed, steaks are done to perfection, home made chips to die for, toasted sandwiches amazing, no leftovers here. compliments to the chef. great bar staff, well mannered and attentive, highly recommend if you are in nottingham.

Great food, plenty to choose from, the staff were friendly and helpful. Clean and a chilled atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back.

Alright pub. Service is good and good selection of drinks. Love the strawberry beer. Music is a bit loud for my taste and toilets weren't the cleanest. However, still enjoyed the visit.

Fantastic place, well decorated, great music and well prepared food, recommended 👌

The atmosphere is great , very cosy - service was with a smile. Be such a shame if they turn this bar into offices 👎🏻

While visiting Nottingham we called in for Lunch food and service was excellent and the staff were very helpfull the price was very reasonable Thanks

This is purely for the food. I was told about trying the Nottingham Pie and I wasn't disappointed. AMAZING 🤩. The only thing that let my meal down was my knife wasn't sharp enough lol.

Nicely decorated inside. Loads of photos on the walls. Guinness was top class. Descent sized room. Music being piped through which was low and enjoyable. Visited here with friends. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great visit.

Nice pub but reviewing poorly due to their sheer lack of regard for disabled access and health and safety. Fire escape route blocked by chairs as well as access to disabled toilet being blocked by said chairs. Fire extinguisher being used to prop open a fire door which should be closed at all times. HSE would have a field day. Can't comment on food but drinks were decent enough and a selection of board games to play *** Visited again a month later, low and behold the chairs were there again, blocking access to the toilet. What's your excuse this time?

Was instantly welcomed, complimented and given great service. Bar staff seemed lovely

Great atmosphere, great selection of Gin and Rum. Also a good selection of Beer, Lager and Cider. Overall a great experience. Only drank, didn't eat. There was quite a varied range of music being played which we didn't mind. 👍

It's a spoons it does what a spoons does cheap beer cheap food everyone's happy 😊

Just had a meal there. They took our dog in. Food was good and staff very friendly. Very nice experience

Went here for drinks, lovely atmosphere, pricing is decent and a good range of drinks on tap. Would defiantly recommend.

Nice place to go, great Sunday lunch

Bunch of goths running the bar, playing hardcore metal rock music in an "irish bar/pub". The ginger one couldnt even look me in the eye and the wannabe viking didnt give a toss.

Great little pub, very crowded indeed but great atmosphere and super friendly, a very jolly end to an evening!

Absolutely lovely Sunday dinner.

Always a nice place to have a decent pint and cheeseboard.

It's ok? bit over priced in my opinion, nice atmosphere very good service.

The selection of beer was okay and the snacks were fine but not spectacular. Nice atmosphere, though and probably even better at night!

Well what a hidden gem was included in a party to one of the upper function rooms approx 35 /40 guys having our twice yearly Christmas dinner the venue the staff and a five course Christmas dinner Gordon Ramsey would of been proud off …..five stars all the way…..everything was cooked to perfection and the portion size was ample ……smiles all around thanks guys we will defiantly be booking again 10/10

Booked in yesterday for a family Birthday meal for Sunday Lunch. Out of our 7 dinners that came out 3 of them were stone cold!The young waitress(who was very polite and apologetic)took them away to be warmed up.By the time they came back the other 4 had almost finished theirs.We were offered a free round of drinks and the manager said we did not have to pay for the 3 dinners.Although it was a nice gesture it took the shine off things because the food was absolutely fantastic and we would've all liked to eat at the same time.Not sure if we will be returning after this experience but like I've stated the food was incredible and the waitress was very kind and helpful.

One of those situations where it would be nice to get a refund and just leave. Staff nice enough to change my steak, but the taste of burnt was overpowering. 45 minutes to get our food out. The Mac and cheese was a sloppy mushy powdery liquid nightmare. You could make a smaller portion with better and real ingredients, you could clean the grill before cooking on it, you should tell that takes 30 minutes for a pie. Maybe nice to go for a beer.

Been here a few times now...Nice place to have a drink.....

Brought a group of friends here to watch the rugby recently. Everyone loved the pub Extremely friendly and efficient service by Jordan and his team. Back in today for food. I had the ribeye steak, with amazing chips and a perfect home made peppercorn sauce. Fantastic food and great portions. Having the best Guineas to follow. My friend had the fish and chips. Huge portion. Extreme good quality. Jordan is very friendly , warm and welcoming. The perfect host. Will absolutely be back and will be recommending to friends and family. Mark

What an establishment! Warm, friendly environment and the food…woah, where do I start? On the recommendation of Jordan (who by the way, gave me and my friend top class service with his huge beaming smile) I had fish and chips - it was huge! Batter was incredibly crispy, and the homemade ‘granny’ chips (because they are literally like the chips your gran would have made you) were divine. Everything cooked to absolute perfection. Worth every penny. If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. Thankyou for your time, enthusiasm and kindness Jordan, a true asset to this pub and I’m sure your efforts have not gone unnoticed by your seniors. Thankyou!

Popped in for a quick pint and ended up buying the majority of the specials menu. Spoke to the staff and they tell me , they have a new specials menu every week , was very good and very good value for money

Had a Sunday lunch and can honestly say it’s one of the best I’ve ever had. Confit carrots and lamb shanks :)

Lovely food, particularly pizza.

Absolutely love this traditional pub x

Had a meal here the best meal I've had in a long time worth every penny the drinks was priced well staff was friendly. The chef came out to speak to to us which was nice wish could give you more stars will definitely back.

Awesomely good food, great service and an overall good place. A nice friendly pub within the busy City Centre

Stopped of for quick drink. Great selection of beers and very well priced, perfect.

Piatti ottimi, fish and chips esagerato! Locale carino e personale cortese. Siamo capitati la ‘Burget Night’, ne ho approfittato con notevole soddisfazione

Good pub: good choice of ale too! Would recommend heavily

Large groups of students, fine, but the majority of which were vaping constantly. No Idea what I have inhaled tonight

Had a Fantastic Sunday lunch at very reasonable prices, also a great selection of ale on tap!! What more could you ask for A++++++

Friendly staff and a not bad pint of Guinness

Excellent service and great atmosphere. Staff were super friendly. Great food offering. Thank you for a great afternoon

Visited meds on Saturday about 6-00pm with a group of friends And to be honest was really impressed with not just the the excellent choice of beers but the quality of the food Will be playing a visit again the next time visit the city centre Thank you

So I came in on a Friday night and was served by Nia, she was lovely and really accommodating to me and my mates, she was great fun and had time for all of us, best pub in Nottingham by far, thankyou guys

Unreal food , great knowledgable staff, great chef always has time to talk to you

Nearly non existent wait staff and even ordering from the bar seemed to bother them.

Good food, great location, great buzz in the pub and staff very helpful and pleasant, no complaints to be fair, we couldn’t ask for more…

Amazing atmoshpere with incredibly friendly bar staff. The two staff working tonight were incredibly helpful tonight! Would definitely reccommend!

It was a friends 40th upstairs, had a great time

Great staff, absolutely fantastic Sunday roast. Would highly recommend.

Шикарний заклад! Було дуже смачно і дуже багато всього в тарілці. Замовили баранячу рульку і смажену курку. Це було щось неймовірне )) Порції дуже великі, тому розраховуйте на свою спроможність з'їсти це. Дуже задоволений обслуговуванням. Дівчата офіціанти найкращі. Бармен теж на високому рівні. Рекомендую відвідати)))

One empty Octomore is disappointing. Four empty Octomores is a tragedy! Do buy a full one or don’t have them on show behind the bar.

Have been here a few times now there food is great my autistic stepson loves it the staff are great very friendly and make you feel welcome and part of the family

Just popped in for a couple of beers. Seems like a nice place for a city centre pub. Wide range of beers (no cask ales on my visit though).

We only stopped for drinks, but the bar was nicely stocked and the staff friendly and knowledgeable

There were 4 of us but we all had mixed experiences. My lager I noticed straight away it wasn't right and they changed it ,my friend sat down tastes his and realised that it wasn't good so had to change his. The food was okay but not great. Staff were pleasant enough. Maybe because it was a Saturday and they were all rushed but it was just average.

Nice place for a pint in the sun on a warm day

Nice place, great drink, lovely staff

Great selection of different beers

Nice pub lovely sitting outside on a sunny day

Nice place with great beer and cider selection

Nice lovely pub, staff very friendly and helpful, nice outside area for drinks and food in the sun 🌞

Best pub we went to on our Nottingham visit.

Only had a drink but great bar and quick service.

On a sunny day with the doors open and seats available outside, this is a great place to sit ❤️

Great bar with an excellent range of craft beer

Really surprised by this pub. Very tasty gluten free and vegan options and great portions. Friendly staff. Good selection of drinks. Nice atmosphere. It's also clean but possibly could do with a bit of a revamp.

First visit but great staff and enjoyable afternoon.

Cherry beer was delicious, lovely atmosphere and was able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine

Decided to nip for Sunday dinner never been before and have to say food is the best Sunday dinner we've had as a pub lunch this place is just like a traditional pub you see in London in Nottingham...staff were great and helpful will definitely go again

Staff were friendly and attentive but not overbearing in this very cosy and welcoming bar just a short walk from the city centre. But the real star is the food. We had Sunday lunch and everything was cooked perfectly and very tasty. The only issue is hauling my over full stomach back to the car. A hidden gem

We came in last week was served a drink in a damp glass around the stem, which resulted in me dropping my drink. Was refused another drink and wouldn’t give me a refund. The manager was very sarcastic and had a attitude towards us asking for my money back

Great pub for a pint and bite to eat. I stopped for a Guinness which was not too badly poured, and was a fiver. But my friends had food and they all enjoyed it. Especially the double burger with the cheese bath, which I tried and enjoyed.

They easily accommodated my party of 15 for my birthday. Friendly staff with fast service and great food. Will definitely be back.

Highly rate the customer service and great energy and vibes.

I just jumped in there for one hour between time for my connecting flights and I was impressed with a service of Elsie who went extra mile for me. She was very polite and asked me if I would like to add sauce and take leftover what I really appreciated.The food was so tasty and the service was great. The pub looks very nice. If I go again to this airport I would definitely go again to this bar.I highly recommend it to everyone.

Acogedor pub ambiente agradable, comida con platos exuberantes a buen precio

My wife and I have just had a wonderful first meal here (21/4/24). Both had Nottingham pie - awesome! Won't be the last time!!

What a find, an absolutely brilliant bar/restaurant, nipped in for one drink after getting off the bus, only to find we were still there 3 hours later, such a lovely bar and the management and staff, were really friendly. Very dog friendly too. The Sunday lunch was amazing best lamb shank I have had, will definitely be returning soon
