The Nottingham Arms in Tewkesbury - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Proper English pub. Good beer, friendly staff and locals. Can get busy on weekends which adds to the atmosphere.

Do eat here the food was terrible we went last summer and the food was excellent. What has gone wrong

Lovely good atmosphere pub felt very welcomed

Very Friendly and welcoming staff! Very good real ale and choice of drinks! Food is simple pub food but home made and delicious! Been here twice now ! Had lasagne and cheese and bacon burger ! Both excellent! And sensible prices!! Very clean and pleasant atmosphere! Highly recommended Try the Sea Fury ale !! Will call again!! Many thanks

Worst pub food I've had in many years (Aug '24). Nachos served cold with chilled cheese sauce squeezed on a bowl of chilled ketchup/salsa to dip! Honestly! Not the melted, chewy deliciousness you expect... steak sandwich served on cheap white sliced bread - gave me the sodding heel! (Crust) and had to ask for the mustard mayo. Shame as lady behind bar was lovely, helpful and attentive. The setting is really lovely too.

Old tudor pub on the High Street, original low ceilings. We visited several times during our stay. Friendly, reasonably priced & dog friendly inside. We ate twice, week day meal was nice, Sunday roast was home cooked old style cooking, mega enjoyed it. Cauliflower cheese portion was enough for two people.

Great local pub and would’ve been good for just drinks. We ordered tikka masala, the dish was small, the naan was very hard and overcooked. It was served with a random popadom. The rice had obviously been kept warm as the top of it was dry. Good service though

We would have had a lovely time if the visit hadn’t been spoiled by the rudeness of the chef. We ordered from the specials menu which offered two courses for a good price. Three of us ordered starters and mains,and one ordered mains and dessert. It was mentioned when ordering that we would most likely order extra desserts. The lovely front of house lady, Hayley, said that would be fine. The menu was a good example of pub food with plenty to choose from and the food we had was lovely. When we tried to order an extra dessert the chef said we could only have the pre ordered dessert and not an extra as the kitchen was now closed. My husband who has worked in hospitality pointed out that she shouldn’t be stopping mid service. She replied that she had a dog to get home to. A dessert was grudgingly prepared. While we were eating the chef stomped past as she left shouting to Hayley “Same again tomorrow. A different crowd hopefully!” Hayley apologized for her colleague’s rudeness. We had planned to return tonight with my son and his partner but we will now change our plans.

Fantastic atmosphere,great staff , good food for what you pay , friendly staff 😂

Drinks served in little plastic cups my chardonnay and a coke standard coke for a man his coke was laughable ridiculous no wonder people stick with Wetherspoons

had a great time ,a band on in the evening,good beer and great company..

Love this pub always drink in there when in tewksbury.food is good to

Just arrived in Tewsbury looking for somewhere to eat. Plumped for the Nottingham Arm. A little quiet being a Monday but the staff were very friendly and helpful. Good pub grub and a decent choice of drinks. A plus for me it's dog friendly a must to attract much needed trade. Will definitely visit again.

Loved the character of this pub, found it by accident and decided to have food. Excellent burgers, which we both thoroughly enjoyed, beer was nice too. Would highly recommend. We will be going back.

Took my mrs for her birthday.. what a meal. What a welcome, what a family friendly pub. The food, insanely beautiful. Thank you Rachel and the team. Smashed

Beautiful 14th century pub with delicious burgers.

Some great old pubs in Tewkesbury. This place is one of the best.

We visited Tewkesbury for a couple of days from 13/6/24. Looking for an eatery that allows dogs and came across the Nottingham Arms and are so glad we did. It's a traditional pub with a nice ambience. The beer and cider was most enjoyable and hit the right spot. For food I had the linguine and my wife had steak and ale pie, chips and peas. Dessert was sticky toffee pudding and custard. We found the food to be of excellent quality and very tasty. The landlady and her staff are lovely and made us and Millie our westie very welcome. If you like a welcoming traditional pub with good food I would highly recommend this pub.

Just been to this pub, for a bite to eat, absolutely delicious. I had the Southern fried chicken burger and the hubby had gammon. The portions were just right and delicious. The ale, well, I could have stayed all night but knew I had to walk back to our camper van so was sensible and restrained, (very hard to do). The people were extremely friendly and helpful. Thank you, Kirsty, (the only one whose name I heard), and all the locals.

Great value. Wonderful staff lovely atmosphere

The atmosphere is great with quirky signs like 'Duck or Grouse' over a low doorway. Our server, Karen, was super and the fish and chips get a 5 out of 5 (best chips we had in the UK!) The sticky toffee pudding was my first ever, and the best dessert on my whole vacation. I want to return just to have that again! Eat here, it was all very good.

Beer a bit sharp otherwise service good.

Did not visit, just passed by.

Our first time here and we.loved the friendly welcome, relaxed atmosphere, great service and wonderful food. It felt like we were really part of the pub family. We had a great evening and will definitely be back. Thankyou very much.

Really friendly local serving great food.

Small traditional pub in an historic building. Very friendly bar staff and good selections of drinks

The food is always good. The ale is great. Atmosphere is even better. I won't recommend dishes, because it's subjective, but it's all good.

We visited Nottingham Arms for Sunday lunch and were thoroughly impressed by the entire experience. The food was absolutely delicious, offering a comforting and satisfying meal that perfectly capped off our weekend. What set Nottingham Arms apart was the exceptional service. The bar lady, along with all the staff, were incredibly welcoming and friendly, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Their warmth was not limited to adult interactions; our 15-month-old was with us, and the staff made a delightful effort to interact with our little one, which was very much appreciated and added a special touch to our visit. The atmosphere, combined with great food and outstanding service, made for a really good experience. It’s clear that Nottingham Arms values their customers and goes above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience for guests of all ages. I would definitely recommend Nottingham Arms to anyone looking for a cozy, family-friendly place for a delicious meal. Whether you’re local or just passing through, make sure to give this gem a visit!

Visited in the afternoon after considering eating there in the evening. Warm welcome from the staff , good selection of drinks and a nice cosy real fire. Unfortunately , as with many pubs today , dogs are welcome in the bar AND the restaurant. We are totally against animals in dining areas but it's getting to be the norm. Simply because of this we ate elsewhere , which was a shame really but , as I said , I don't think animals should be allowed in restaurants. Many people are allergic to animals but it seems that ( in general ) it is ignored yet , God forbid , if there is a peanut in sight. Sorry Nottingham , would loved to have joined you but....If you don't mind the dogs then I would 100% recommend a visit to this cosy old traditional pub.

Always loved the old world charm and with classic food and wonderful service

Been here a few times for drinks and snacks and liked it,booked a table for Sunday roast today very disappointing, frozen roast potatoes, frozen parsnips, frozen green beans gritty overcooked chantenay carrots ,mushy broccoli ,not good ,cherry on the cake a young couple through the arch in the bar area vaping and blowing the fumes down to the floor which then came our way ,disgusting behaviour

Great proper pub! Lovely staff, very welcoming place. Lunch was very tasty and good selection of pump beers. Will def return, becoming regulars.

Visited on 2 occasions while on holiday and on both occasions the food was fantastic. On first night I had burger and my wife had gammon bother were lovely. On the 2nd occasion I had lasagne and my wife had steak both were cooked to perfection

Great Pub in Tewkesbury and the quiz on a Thursday top notch. Good selection of beers, ciders and ales 5 🌟

Picked this one out before going so l knew what l could eat It was a really nice place to eat friendly people and lots of info about the area I had veggie sausages with should of been mash but l changed for chips peas gravy Yorkshire pudding onion really good after l had vegan ice cream with a waffle so good

Friendly pub. Watch out for the beams if you're 6'5" like me.

A very charming town pub full of the old original timbers serving well kept beer's served by friendly staff.

We didn't try the food, but the pub was good and the staff very friendly

Nice pub but Beer choice is all the same not to my taste - Update, since the new Landlady took over the Ale choice and condition of the Ale has vastly improved i am pleased to say.

4 of us + a dog popped in on a Friday afternoon. Lovely quirky pub, friendly and attentive staff, great food, good sized portions and realistic prices. Would definitely call in again.

Lovely pub full of character,highly recommend the Sunday lunch.

Proper pub feel, friendly service and really good food. Dog friendly too. Only went in as had faggots on special and we weren't disappointed. Would definitely recommend. Unfortunately forgot to take a picture of faggots so here's one of Bob our greyhound 😀

Great pub. Been in several times, doesn't disappoint

Lovely little high street pub with good value food and real ale.

Superb pub all round, fabulous faggots mash peas and gravy, will be back, asap.

Super little pub for a drink, friendly staff

We visited here this evening and it was great. The staff were very friendly and the food was lovely. We had the mixed grill and the lasagne. Both were very nice. Lovely feel to the place. We enjoyed our visit very much. Thank you.

Great pub, excellent and friendly staff. A band was playing during my visit. It's a joy to see a good pub, full with people enjoying a night out. 👍

An old world vibe here the food was excellent...watch your head though if you are tall.

Visited on Sunday. Lovely old pub with history Friendly staff, great beer and lovely surroundings. We enjoyed Sunday roast. The beef was tender, vegetables perfect, and the cauliflower cheese tasty. Dog friendly too. Perfect thank you

Really welcoming, dogs welcome too. Nice atmosphere. Food was good I had steak which was lovely. Good varietyy of drinks. Would recommend this pub.

Went for a meal yesterday. Amazing place to eat. Staff went out of there way to meet everyone's needs. Food was amazing, and the desserts were amazing. Lovely atmosphere. Would definitely use in the future if we are on holiday in the area again.

Lovely traditional little pub with great local people.. we were treated to the company of Dave and Roxcy..

We visited due to reviews. Greasy, overcooked food. Friendly cheerful staff

If in Tewkesbury you must visit this pub. The service is friendly and good beers on tap. The food is excellent and freshly cooked

Booked table for 1930, had main course then went to order pud and told sorry kitchen closed at 2000!

Decent little boozer Popped in whilst working in area

Great food great beer and great music x

Good quality beer at least the one I had don't do much in the way of pub food

Lovely little pub in the heart of town. Friendly with decent food and a lovely atmosphere, dog friendly too! Super clean (you can tell by how spotless the condiments were), clearly work hard to maintain their food and hygiene rating of 5.

Proper English pub , always visit this place when in Tewkesbury 😁

Very busy on music weekend Good service and atmosphere

OK but there are better pubs in Tewkesbury. A nice local though and very dog friendly🐶

Nice olde world pub. Lots of character. Live music when we visited. Drinks a bit pricey.

Lovely little pub! Nice place to rest after cycling from Lincoln .

We had food her a bit of a weight my wife had steak and ale pie it looked anemic been warmed up in a microwave and cheep we should have sent it back. There photos on the website can not be from there.

Rachel and the team are always friendly. It's one of the best pubs in Tewkesbury. People come in for 1 pint and end up staying the whole evening. Live music and food are always good too!

Great old pub, traditional & very friendly, staff great & dogs are spoilt.

Even when busy you are served quickly with quality food and drink

Great old pub Staff friendly Just go and enjoy YEE OLD PUB

Nice place.. Rustic look Unfortunately like most of the places in Tewkesbury it seems they have level access but no toileting facilities for wheelchair users

Friendly pub with good beer, I would definitely go back and recommend it without reservation (I would like to go for some live music)

Staff great but prices sky high,same drinks later at the Anchor £3 less way way over priced. Won't go back

Seriously pay this pub a visit. Bar lady was top notch and the food exceeded my expectations!!

A traditional pub. Friendly staff. Well placed in the town centre.

Loved it. Still old fashioned pub with friendly staff. Ideal stop of when shopping. Well worth a visit.

A football orientated pub. OK, nothing too bad at all, just not my thing.

Excellent, called in for a few drinks cos the sign said dog friendly, it certainly was can't fault it. Brilliant. Didn't eat so can't give info on that.

We had an horrendous visit here. Bar service appalling slow, food service incredibly slow- menu description bore no relevance to what we were served. Would never go back. Spent over £40.00 on 2 drinks, rubbish food and rubbish service. A place in Teweksbury needs to up it's game. Sadly they rely on passing trade, so obviously don't give a s***e! Will never go back!

Great, old pub serving tasty food. We had the fish and chips and it was delicious. The lady serving us was helpful and friendly. Really enjoyed our visit.

Not a very nice place in my opinion

Very nice 'old world' atmosphere, staff friendly and efficient. Food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Drinks were expensive mind.

Took my mum for a Birthday lunch, very friendly staff and we were very well looked after. We both gad a starter and a main course, both delicious and well presented.

Great food, steak and ale pie was very good!

We were in Tewkesbury for a couple of nights just enjoying this lovely old town. We tend to have a wander, visit any sights, then shop and visit pubs. It was lunchtime when we popped into the Nottingham Arms and we were pleased to see a good priced menu. The pub itself was old and proud of the fact, it was stripped back to show some of it's history and I loved it, so many places seem to hide their heritage behind fancy decorations and modern furniture. The service we received was really friendly, not just polite, but genuine. My wife ordered a steak and ale pie and I went for the local faggots. Both dishes were excellent but the faggots were outstanding!! My wife got food envy and so I had to share my faggots, I wasn't keen, but what can you do?!! I can't remember the exact price but I do know that we thought it was incredible value given the quality. I would be happy to go back and hope that they still have faggots on the menu

Lovely little pub.Lovely bar staff,and a great pint

Good pub,really nice welcome, good food as well

Friendly and welcoming, especially to our two dogs. Excellent food, good value for money, would recommend.

Historic, well presented, friendly, locals' pub well worth a visit. Good real ales and welcoming staff. If your looking for a good sign, step inside. 😊

Nice lunch, great pub with great character.

Great old pub bags of character nice selection of ales

Proper tudor pub. Need to duck to get to back.

Good beer , good staff, good atmosphere.

Warm welcome from the barmaid. It was a bustling, Saturday lunchtime, but we still managed to snag a table. Good menu, reasonably priced. Chef was on the way through, so was able to ask about a couple of the dishes, she even took our order! Food was well presented and absolutely deeeelicious! The pub is family and dog friendly too. We can heartily recommend.

An excellent historic pub in Tewkesbury town with masses of character and old beams. Friendly staff and good beer and regular live music too..

Nice pub, good atmosphere. Would recommend

Sunday roast was excellent, beautifully cooked and presented followed by apple and rhubarb crumble with a flapjack topping. Will definitely be going back 👨‍🍳🏆

Spent Gold Cup day here, what a fantastic day! Despite being really busy, the staff were cheerful and welcoming. Great atmosphere, facilities clean.

Very friendly bar staff nice atmosphere

Nice pub but a bit expensive for the food what you get
