The Punchbowl in Gedling

Stopped for an early dinner and a couple of drinks - large pub, plenty of parking, very friendly staff and plenty of people enjoying themselves. I had gammon and chips and my mother had scampi. I would eat here again if up in Nottingham.

Warm welcome a nice fire which is always nice on a cold wet day. Staff welcoming and helpful food severed in good time and hot well be returning soon

This placement is good for any meal of the day and even have entertainment on a Wednesda, quiz night and Sundays, sticky 13s . Plus they have a function room for hire

Staff friendly and welcoming and helpful, food was hot and tasted great, pub looks clean and tidy properly needs painting

Great place friendly staff needs some decoration, food always nice served fast so always hot, the choice on the bar is great love the cocktails

Sunday roast was spot on. Debbie the manager was very informative and helped us with any queries we had. Would love to come again soon

We went to the Punchbowl and the food was very good also the service will go again got a birthday coming up soon

We stopped here for breakfast with santa. Wow! The experience was amazing! They had a full disco with santa and an elf, kept my child entertained throughout our time there. The breakfast served was way better than expected. Fully loaded plate for adults and half sized for kids! The staff were all very friendly and nothing seemed too much for them! Definitely be returning on our next trip.

Great function room and fabulous buffet, would recommend as room is a great size, DJ was great, all our needs catered for

Service was good, did not have to wait long for my food which was good and hot, I was in and out quickly which is what I needed

It's ok food quite good but some visits have been better than others, maybe it's depending on staff I'm not sure but it's not bad .

£14.= 4wings & measly 4 inch of ribs Those pigs are getting very small now days. Verdict= DISCUSTING,IMPOSSIBLE to even cut thought with stake 🔪 Manager said yes they was the last ones?! Why does that EVEN matter., Also you dont stand at the bar, you queue like waiting for a bus. And I'll ⚠️ you now. Bring a book service like Greek semester. ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

Welcoming food was great hot and did not have to wait to long staff where friendly what more could you need we will all be returning

Loved it Char very helpful, information provide was great, food lovely, will be back soon This review is for my dad he said the scampi was hot and plentyful

Lovely lunch had today. Food was clearly fresh and full of flavour. Tables were clean and well presented and the staff were all happy and warmly welcoming!

Had a get together with a few friends from work. Very nice staff, polite and very welcoming. We had planned to just have a few drinks but after seeing a few meals going out we had a look over the menu and all had something....

We went with friends and was looking forward to a lovely Sunday dinner when it finally came after 35 minutes it didn't look very appealing as the carrots were hard and white also the broccoli was too hard the beef I could not even chew...

Waited 35 minutes for 4 Sunday roast & was told that they were prepared in the morning and microwaved for reheating for customers. How embarrassing

Food service and atmosphere where frist class staff where friendly and helpful food came out hot and was not a long wait for it

Food came out promptly with great service. Food was wonderful, best steaks we’ve had in a long time!

Loved our breakfast. Very enjoyable. Quick to recieve and was all spot on. Very happy and very full thankyou

Visited friends who have recently moved to Nottingham. Lovely pub well worth the 3 hour drive. Hospitality and food I couldn't fault. It was home from home 😀

The food was lovely, cooked to order and delivered in a good time from ordering. The staff were really helpful. The place was clean and the tables were obviously cleaned regularly too, as they were not sticky. Great place, will be returning again.

Rude staff, manger argued with us when we complained about the frozen roast dinner that got served to us; broccoli was still frozen, could taste the roast potatoes were from frozen, meat was processed. Was reluctant to give us a refund when we took one...

Good value staff made us feel welcome we will be ordering food on next visit it looked great that went to tables

Not the best atmosphere when I walked in won't be visiting for a while. Took ages to order as offers om app wouldn't go through not good for customer or staff stress.

Great value well prepared and served meals with great service too. Comfortable atmosphere with different areas offering quiet spaces or sports tv if that suits.

Lovely pub and very big also has a function room. Staff and management very friendly. Would definitely recommend a visit

Over priced round of drinks by the very small female at the bar. I think she also does sticky 13’s on a sunday. I got charged £2.60 for a splash of lemonade in my spritzer. I also saw her speak to a new lad extremely...

We had Easter Sunday Lunch here with the family.The food came out quickly, it was hot and very tasty.The staff were very helpful and polite too.We have been eating here for sometime now and never been disappointed.Thank you and well done everyone

I have been here on many different occasions for food and drink, aswell as private and public functions. (Birthdays, funerals, halloween public party, pop up and seasonal markets etc) Everytime has been a nice experience, the staff are very welcoming, accommodating and friendly. I find...

I had a lovely meal tonight, all the staff are friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is nice woth good music

Lovely meal, very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff, have also had Sunday lunch here, would definitely reccomend a visit

Food was lovely and hot with generous portions, the atmosphere was relaxed and comfy. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and was always on hand to help.

Staff are lovely however, the food was terrible. We had a party of 7 & 5 of us had issues with our food. With it either being overcooked, stale and even inedible. When the food is concerned, the overall experience was dreadful and this is...

Very nice and comfortable public house Debbie and Carol could not do enough for my guest well done will be back

Manager was rude ignored you like you want there wouldn't recommend coming here plenty other ember inns to go to short staff as well.. And the prosecco was flat

Very disappointing. On arrival for our booking we were directed to our table with a finger point instead of being shown to our table. Not informed how to order, ie table service? Order at the bar? We then saw an App. order service marker on...

We had a lovely time at the Punchbowl and really enjoyed our visit, I had the gammon and my wife had the hunters chicken, great value for money .

Vibes were really nice, not too busy. Prices are good but the lady speaking on microphone was loud and distracting.

Thought we'd try somewhere new. Visited 21st October for some dinner. We were greeted by the manager Deb who not only made us feel welcome but accommodated all of our needs. Couldn't of asked for a better service. 100% would visit again. Thankyou deb and...

Gorgeous food drinks and service really cheered us all up today thankyou will definitely be back again soon.

Food was really tasty and good value. The service was friendly and efficient. Felt very comfortable in there and ended up staying til close

Fab night out. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. The classic burger was the best burger I have ever had. I always wish burgers would taste as good as they smell and the burgers here did!! 10/10 from me

Amazing food great atmosphere can’t wait to return, food piping hot delicious! Amazing staff the best of ember inns in Nottingham

Wasn't expecting Michelin star food, but it would have been nice to have the correct order, and a cooked pudding. The mains were supposed to have been chargrilled chicken with chips, (as per the day menu), it came with new potatoes which my wife doesn't...

Brilliant staff, food, price, service and entertainment! Could not recommend this place enough !!!!!

Went too the PunchBowl on Porchester Road for Food & Drink The Welcome was lovely.The Food was Tasty & Hot. Ordered and the food didn’t take long .Comfort Seating & a Good choice of Food on the menu.Would Highly Recommend

We were there for a family wake, and the staff were so accommodating and attentive. They couldn't do enough for everyone. They were super fast with rearranging things for all of us that we were. After the function room had closed, they saved us some...

We went as a family for dinner, My son has a severe nut allergy. The staff were absolutely amazing, they went above and beyond to cater for my son's allergy. Nothing was too much trouble for them. All the staff were Welcoming, friendly, helpful and...

Service was excellent and so was the food. The pub felt warm and cozy. The staff told us about events for the kids and just made us feel very welcome

I used to live locally to this pub and whilst it is a chain pub it was decent food at good prices. I have now after 6 years moved back to the area so have been twice for Sunday lunch. To say i am disappointed...

Had the mixed grill tonight was cooked to perfection had garlic prawns as an extra was amazing great value for money staff Very attentive will be back very soon thank you

They did not want to seat us, they then proceeded to put hands on my female friend because she could not hear what the lady mumbled underneath her voice, she also said there was no seating outside for us when there clearly was and then decided that none of us were allowed to eat at the pub and told us to go home. Something I did not expect to face in today’s world. I’m truly disappointed with this service.

Booked a table for 5. First time back since last summer due to various lockdowns. Fab food, drink and service. Staff were all friendly and helpful and followed the covid guidelines and it was great to be back!! W

Booked over a week ago, got ready, walked from home and arrived hungry only to be told that we would have to wait an hour and a half for food. We did not stay. Either their staff have absolutely no idea how to plan for...

Went here for lunch today. The decor is lovely, everywhere was clean. There weren't many people in (1.15), probably 15 people in total. We both ordered turkey - just as well, as apparently they had run out of roast beef and pork, anyway. The meals...

We visited last night 12/8/20 after booking online, we were greeted politely the table we had been allocated was still in use but the staff member quickly reallocated a different one making sure it had been sanitized. Ordering at the bar was a straightforward and...

From begining to end a poor experience. Booked a table, but no table ready when we arrived. Pub felt uncomfortable very over full. App wouldnt let us order and get the 50% off . So had to go the bar. None of the staff had...

Visit the punch bowl on a regular basis, cannot fault the place the fantastic staff, and the manager Helen! Atmosphere and food are brilliant, will be back very soon!!!

Brilliant again, Service was quick and efficient and the food was lovely, would highly recommend. Staff were smiley and pleasant as always, will be back soon!

Had a great night here last week with my friends, 8 of us all had food and drinks and a brilliant time was had by all. Staff were all absolutely fab. Lovely team of workers and it's great to see such a vibrant atmosphere here!

La comida es muy buena, tuve el pan de ajo varias veces cursi como un tentempié cuando aparece por una pinta, calidad fabulosa. Los platos principales y diferentes que he tenido han sido de un alto nivel. A menudo diferentes tipos de entretenimiento por las noches diferentes de noches de póquer a un concurso, pero estos no incomodar si fuimos sólo para una comida o una bebida. Una pequeña cosita que puede ser molesto es que hay a menudo sólo una chica que trabajaba en el bar, así que el servicio puede ser un poco lento a veces lleno. Pero aparte de eso, es un lugar estupendo para comer y beber en una atmósfera muy amable

Great food, great service we all had a really good time and the prices are worth what you get in our opinion

El lugar estaba lleno cuando llegamos a ^ h sábados, que le dice que debe de ser bueno para empezar. Un entorno agradable y el personal era muy amable y servicial. El arranque fue bien, mi sopa estaba buena, pero mis socios me pareció caro para lo que ofrecían (había hongos con salsa). Luego los dos nos tomamos un bistec. Estaba bien aunque la mía tenía demasiado cartílago, pero aún así estaba bien. Supongo que en otra noche me perfecto. Le daría otra oportunidad.

Gran pub, bien decoradas, limpias y bien mantenidas, con madera muy caliente fuegos. Sin embargo, la comida era de calidad normal en el mejor de los casos, pub tardaron bastante tiempo para venir y cuando llegó era un poco decepcionante. Tuve la línea de pescado que pueden haber sido capturados, pero era de línea una consistencia seca triturada, y tenía demasiado grasienta empanada que cubren. Mi esposa la hamburguesa que estaba bien. Tanto las bebidas y la comida eran caros, especialmente dada la calidad de la comida. Un local que tenía demasiado para beber incluso dirigido a tirar y me impactó en la cabeza con un tapete de cerveza como el comida llegó

Reservamos una mesa para 13 personas a las 4 de la tarde los domingos, no era problema para ellos organizar. Hacen un almuerzo de domingo, que es la cena con asado. Usted puede elegir 1, 2 o 3 campos, todo a un precio razonable (7 libras. 49 o £9. 49 por 1 o 2 campos) también hay un extenso menú si no quieres asado. Todos tuvimos asado, incluyendo nuestro gluten amigos gratis! (tienen un menú diferente para novia si lo pides). La comida era deliciosa y abundante. El personal era muy servicial y educado. Sin duda lo recomiendo y volveré pronto.

Apart from the service being a little on the slow side we had a great evening- my rump steak was cooked to perfection- excellent value using NHS discount- I will definitely be back

We had a table booked for four of us at 3.30..we ordered food ten minutes later...2 courses.. 50 minutes later we got the meal....very nice it was too.then they told us the puddings we had ordered and paid for had all gone..how is this possible..they must of known...offered one other alternative which didnt really want but we had it..this then took a further 30 mins...the food here is lovely but the service is disgusting..it wasn't even busy...will think twice before returning....

I came here yesterday with a few friends. We only came as it was conveniently close and we didn't want to travel. We had been before, and on a Sunday for a Sunday meal. We didn't have a great experience then. But we gave it one more try. By God, I'm glad we did. Superb it was. I had a beef dinner, and it was so flavoursome. The roast potatoes and parsnips were so fluffy, crispy, and had plenty of taste. Not bland and black like the previous time I came. Everything on the plate was beautiful. The only thing I would suggest is maybe making your own Yorkshire puddings? The service has improved too, the man behind the bar with glasses was friendly and efficient and welcoming. The young lady who served our food was friendly and attentive. On this occasion, I cannot point out a bad fault. I hope I can say the same when I return. I can still taste the beautiful tasty beef.
