Fuimos en familia para el almuerzo del Domingo de Madres y nos sorprendió gratamente el nivel de servicio y atención. Todos tuvimos algo diferente del menú y todos dijeron lo mucho que disfrutamos lo que tuvimos. Muy elogiado por esta familia, especialmente la niña que tomó nuestra orden y chateó con nuestro hijo de siete años.

Really nice place. Whilst a bit on the pricier side, the food is delicious. There's a great selection of drinks behind the bar and the staff are always up for a laugh. The decor is beautiful, it's modern but doesn't lose the original bones of the building.

Visited on a Sunday and could easily see why it was busy. The service was so kind, genuine and friendly without being over the top or intrusive. Not the cheapest for a pint, but the atmosphere, service and food made up for it - and you get what you pay for, this is no chain. It's a well furnished, comfortable and pleasant area to sit and enjoy good times and even better food! I had the flatbread (shredded beef one) but wish I'd have gone for one of the Sunday dinners as they looked amazing. The chunky chips were really good too. For saying how fresh the food was, the wait was minimal. Waiting times were good and although our table was required for the next booking we didn't fee rushed to leave, we were politely asked and even got apologised to, too. The sticky toffee pudding was lush, too, Won't hesitate to return again in the future!

As others have written this is not just another Gastro Pub. We called in at lunchtime. Car park reassuringly busy. Staff very friendly, obliging and efficient. Wife enjoyed fixed price menu, gluten free. Chicken was moist, veg very tender and well cooked. Sauce rich and tasty. She thoroughly enjoyed the Brownie and Ice Cream My burger was also very tasty "fully loaded" and with crisp "skin on fries" A very pleasant, unrushed lunch. Will definitely return.

Very disappointing. One chap behind the bar particularly very aggressive in his demeanour. Ask for him to change me a pint after the previous barrel had runout and was left sitting . He declined saying “it’s okay.”. I then asked his manager for a new pint and the said individual behind the bar ( long greasy brown hair with an unkept complexion) tried to intimidate me by standing in front of him. Absolutely Needs to get himself into another job. You have been warned. Be wary of this man as I was very intimidated I’ve come for a pint not a fight

Food menu is heavy on the meat side, if you’re vegetarian you’ll be hard pushed to find a main plate suited. To the ‘manager’ up front who upon listening to my mother then dismissed her with a “I have another one hundred and fifty customers to look after” and then walked away, when she was providing feedback about the menu…that’s beyond rude. If you can’t handle a busy night without having an attitude then find someone who can. I’ve worked with hundreds of customers as a manager and would never have dared to have spoken in that manner to a customer in front of me. It shows a lack of decorum and care towards repercussions, noting my parents are aged . That was the let down of the night. Our plates were left all night on the table as a server tried to collect whilst I was still eating, I thought she’d be back…alas not.

Visited today to celebrate my sons 18th Birthday with 14 family members, pre ordered, so food was quick, hot and very tasty. Our server ( India) was amazing, super attentive, didn't rush us and really polite, she couldnt do enough and happily took photos( I hoped she got her tip?). All in all a throughly enjoyable meal and most of the puddings were delightful. The only reason it wasn't a 5 star review is the extortionate price of the cheese board, 6 crackers, 3 very small pieces of cheese and a little tub of pickle, no way this was for 2 people and at £16.95, was a real disappointment and did put a tiny dampener on the celebrations as the birthday boy and I were supposed to share..luckily an M&S Colin came to the rescue!

Went on a Sunday and ordered the platter of which comes with a trio of meats and comes with really nice Carrots and Green Beans. One of the best roasties I’ve had for a while and great meat, the star of the show was the porchetta. Prices at £22.90 this is a fairly pricey dinner but it is worth paying this amount for roasts that are class. This would have been a 5 star had they served mash potato with the roast and another veg. Quality is there but sadly no mash on a roast should not be allowed.

Not been here in a long time and it was still as good as ever. My friend has 2 courses for £22.95 I think it was good value for money cause a main is £15-£25ish ( more expensive end being steak) and puddings were £6-£8ish so if you were looking at having 2 courses it's well worth it. I had the beef sandwich £10.95) and chips and ordered a side of black pepper sauce. Beef was cold sliced and rare which I really enjoyed as I like my beef rare. I have blackpepper sauce pretty much everywhere I eat where it's available and this one was soooooooo good. Really good pepper kick, rich, small diced onion, on the runnier side but the flavour really packed a punch. Forgot to get any photos other than dessert the baked cookie dough with vanilla icecream, fudge pieces, and chocolate hazelnut sauce 😋. So rich, so sweet, but if that's your thing, it was oh so good. Little service touches that can lack at some places werent lacking here. When we didn't order starters our starter Cutlery was taken away straight away, we were offered another drink mid meal, asked if we wanted sauces when our mains were served. At the end of the meal we were asked if we enjoyed it and had a nice time and to enjoy the rest of our evening! Little touches and I noticed them and they were appreciated.

Este lugar ha sido recientemente renovado. Tiene una decoración de lujo en todas partes, lo que le da una sensación acogedora ideal para una comida romántica para dos o un grupo de familia / amigos. Un aparcamiento plano, que lo hace ideal para comedores para minusválidos y áreas de estar adicionales cubiertas y descubiertas para cenar al aire libre. Para grupos grandes, debes reservar tus opciones de comida un par de semanas antes, que es la política común. Pero puede ser una desventaja si desea intercambiar artículos, por ejemplo, mushy a guisantes de jardín, agregar lados, etc., así que piense a fondo su elección antes de llamarlos o corregirlos a medida que llega. Es un lugar popular. Por ejemplo, la reserva del día de Navidad debe ser de 18 meses a un año de antelación. Éramos un grupo grande, y muchos tenían 3 platos, por lo que un grupo con opiniones variables sobre la comida servida, de ahí las 4 estrellas ya que tenemos diferentes gustos. Los entrantes favoritos fueron los chefs, la sopa casera, las costillas de cerdo, y mis champiñones salvajes en una salsa blanca eran encantadores, también. Nuestros platos principales favoritos fueron .. . la Lenteja y Calabaza Wellington vegetariana, la 1/2 pollo y los pasteles caseros - bistec y cerveza y mi pollo y jamón pastel, era muy sabroso, con una buena cantidad de relleno de pastel, se sirvió con puré de patatas, zanahorias, y una pequeña porción de frijoles. El menos popular fue el pescado con papas fritas, ya que el pescado estaba seco, y la Porchetta de Cerdo fue dejada por uno, ya que era demasiado grasosa para el gusto del huésped. El postre favorito fue Apple & berry crumble con natillas. El brownie, aunque agradable, se estropeó por la gran cantidad de salsa de chocolate sobre él, ambos invitados pensaron que había demasiada salsa, lo que estropeó la experiencia. Tal vez si la salsa de chocolate se sirve en una mini jarra en su lugar para que el invitado pueda controlar la cantidad, sería una mejora positiva. En general, este es un lugar encantador, con personal amable y servicial y una buena selección de comida de calidad para una variedad de gustos. Sin duda recomendaría el pub Nuthall y visitar de nuevo.

I used to go into the nutshell when it was the Broxtowe inn and do like the changes however I feel it's lost character and it's just another pub and eating establishment. The service was great though and food as expected. Prices for drinks were a little on the high side. Plenty of seating outside on summer days and also plenty of parking.

Thursday 27th March 2025, My husband and I drove up to Eastwood in Nottinghamshire to meet our friend Janet from Sheffield for the day. . My husband and I arrived early in Eastwood at 11.00 am. We parked our car in the council car park behind ‘The Sun Inn’. We then went into ‘The Sun Inn’ to wait for Janet to arrive, whilst we were there we had a coffee and tea and took in the lovely old fashioned décor of the pub. In a former life it had been the head quarters of The Midland Railway and there were some lovely old photos on the walls of the building and the miners who used to frequent the pub. After visiting the D H Lawrence Birthplace Museum, we strolled back up the high street to go back to the ‘The Sun Inn’ restaurant. We had a table booked here at 5.15 pm for dinner. We entered within and were shown to our table in the restaurant. We looked at the small but interesting menu and made our choices and ordered our drinks. Whilst we were waiting for our food, we started catching up on news and gossip and there was plenty to talk about. Thursday was steak night, so we all chose to have a steak. The food arrived piping hot and was very well presented, but that was where it stopped. We all wondered what cow the steak had come off as it was so tough and grizzly that none of us ate very much of it. Mark said it must have come off a three million year old brontosaurus!!! We complained and we were given complimentary desserts. Janet had a chocolate brownie with cream, Mark had jam roly poly with custard and I have the lava cookie with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. We washed all this food down with a pint of bitter for Mark, a pint of passion fruit cider for me and a pint of larger for Janet. The bill for the meal was reasonable. The atmosphere and staff here are very nice, but sadly the food let it down..

1 star because you can’t leave no stars. 4 of our party of 8 got food poisoning on Sunday. We all had the same meals, deep fried brie, beef carvery and stick toffee banana pudding. We all live in 3 different households, but all 4 of us had varying levels of food poisoning. After contacting the restaurant, they told us that we must have come with food poisoning, that complete lack of ownership and apology is ridiculous for a reputable restaurant. Also worth noting that my sister (who fortunately didn’t have food poisoning) wanted to take her leftovers home… they then presented her with a form to sign saying that they’re not liable should she get food poisoning. If that doesn’t scream of a company who has previously given someone food poisoning… I don’t know what does.
