The Tawny Owl in Newark and Sherwood

Food was OK, all plates cleared up. Service was very good, we asked for some extra gravey no troubles. We came as 2 families so they kept the bills separate but have us the discount as a table thanks. Darcie was great and ensured we had a nice time

Really nice place, quality food, great service :)

Darcie was our server and was absolutely lovely

Our meals arrived quickly and were hot and tasty.Would have liked a little more bbq sauce on the starter but still tasty

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Tawny Owl is by far our favorite pub in the area! We pop in regularly, and every time we’re greeted with a warm welcome from Kaylee, the General Manager, and Sam, the Manager. They’ve created such a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that we always feel right at home. We don’t usually go for the food, but the menu looks fantastic, and we can see how much effort goes into everything they do here. It’s a true family-friendly spot, and the staff always go out of their way to make sure everyone has a great time, including the kids! If you’re looking for a cozy, welcoming pub with top-notch service, The Tawny Owl is the place to be. It’s a true gem in our community, thanks to the wonderful team led by Kaylee. Highly recommended!

This place needed to up its game and it certainly has . Food was really good , served to our direction and liking.Anna who served our table was great. An all round success . Top marks

Jodie was great! Very attentive and kind

Jodie was polite and helpful. Food was cooked beautifully, great evening meal

Lovely meal, swift service, thank you to kaylee. Will be back!

Friendly and efficient staff and very quick service and good food

A nice ambience and good food. The restaurant was comfortable and not too noisy. The server was helpful and friendly. The food was good but the The Ultimate Spicy Beef Burger was not very spicy and needed more Jalapeños. The 30% discount was much appreaciated to help with the costs.

Nice friendly pub. Food is OK and reasonably priced. Nice atmosphere.

The fish was very thin and overcooked I've no idea what type of fish it was because there was so little of it. It wasn't plaice. Someone was vaping while we were eating which was unpleasant

Great family pub & dog friendly. Staff are great and very friendly, food is nice too. Pool table and TV too for sports etc. Outside area is nice for sitting out in the sun.

Been here a couple of times over the last few weeks and had a variety range of meals. Always good food at a good price. Also offer BLC. Staff always friendly and polite.

it was a brilliant service here me and my family enjoyed it very much. but the food could have been abit hotter. the staff was nice and welcoming we definitely be coming back again.

Food was cold, staff spent more time in the back which was a nightmare when you have to order from the gluten free menu! They need to expand on the gluten free menu as you limit people so much. It's not their fault they have allergies!

Great food, great staff, and there's a glutton free menu

Warm welcome, followed by a great meal and excellent service. Amy B was super

Great pub, great food - thanks Lola for serving us!

Just had tea, coffee and latte as a break from driving long distance. All was good, the pub was clean and tidy, service was very good, and drinks were good

Good food but there was a group of young fellas being noisy, even when the manager went to tell them to be quieter.

I sent the bbq cauliflower wings back trice first time all glued together and Luke warm Second time burn but asked staff why he brought them out like this he had no idea ! Please see picture ! Staff training required I asked the manager and she said the chef was on a break !

Great service from Darcie, thank you!

Perfect work, Jodie! Great quiz, expertly read

Excellent service Darcie and Amy B

Friendly staff and great food and delicious food Dan Jodie and Amy H made me feel so welcome 🤗

Food was delicious great service got served quickly

Sadly, on this visit the food was only OK, I'd usually say it was excellent for the money. Plus the bottle of wine we tried was not nice at all (had to add tonic water) and was over £20, ought to have been more like 12, but that would not improve the flavour, just make it more palatable.

Always found staff very helpful and amiable that is one of the reasons why we eat there

Was greeted at entrance by young lady , very pleasant,and was shown to our desired table ,and was told to sit at table and await waitress to give drink order . 2 minutes later Amy B , came and took order and received drinks quickly . Amy then took our food order ,and within 15 minutes arrived ,Food was well presented ,Hot ,and very tasty .Amy B came to us on several occasions to ask if food was ok and any more drinks required .? Service by Amy was superb ,always smiling ,a credit to your company .Thankyou

Waitress was pleasant and a warm welcome. Drinks and food came out all in good times

Dinner very disappointing burnt Yorkshire and roast potatoes looked liked a child’s proportion not going again. Waitress excellent.

Fabulous experience! Special thanks to rubie the young waitress who tried her absolute best to help out and make sure we had everything we needed!

I found that rubie went above and beyond for my family I would definitely bring my other family here

Reserved a table for 5pm , greeted by a lovely waitress at the door .Darcie was our table waitress and she gave excellent service . We were asked by Darcie if we had an allergies , very important these days . The food good , mixed grill and chicken burger followed by sticky toffee pudding delicious would recommend.

Jodies customer service was outstanding.

Nice pub but very expensive drinks

Portions could do with being a bit bigger.

It was very impressive , I would definitely come back and I am going to tell friends and family about the place

Lexi our waitress and server was. Brilliant, friendly and helpful

Steak was off. Overall customer service was fantastic

Gorgeous food compliments of Ed and Dan, great atmosphere when i went for lunch will be back for more food in future!

I have not been to this restaurant for about 3 years. 3 years ago, food and service was awful! Yesterday the food was excellent, the service was excellent, the staff were lovely, the price was brilliant. I’ve already made plans to visit with other friends.

Very nice place, we went for Sunday lunch, good value, service was good , roast beef wasn't the greatest, but rest of meal was good . Nice puddings

I recently visited the Tawny Owl with my family, and there was a girl called Annaleece who served us. Let me just say this about her, very presentable, kind and funny also polite. She put us first all the time and she took her time with us as we had a 4 year old and 5 month baby, she gave us good recommendations with the food and always came to check on us regarding our food or if we needed anything else. The food was unreal so no complaints there and it was perfectly cooked, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. We will definitely be coming again. Five stars for the excellent service and delicious meal!

Went to The Tawny Owl for lunch with some friends and we had a blast! The service was amazing, the food was hot and tasty and the atmosphere was lovely. I recommend this place to anybody looking for somewhere good to eat that caters for all!

Highly recommend, friendly staff especially Amy H and great food. Chefs Ed & Dan cooked up a great Sunday Roast!

Friendly service and decent food. Had burgers and were very tasty.

Amazing staff! Lucy served us our drinks and delivered food to our table. She was very polite and well mannered. She did made sure our meals were up to our standards during and after the meal. Which they were. We told her “compliments to the chef”, she let us know that it was Kian who made our food and plated up. Was amazing presentation and amazing food! 10/10!🤍

The sticky toffee pudding only gets 1 star and zero stars for the vanilla ice cream. The main course was nice and the service was good

We came in for dinner after a weekend away and long drive back up the A1. The location is great. Always a great atmosphere, especially on a Sunday evening when the quiz is on. The food is always quickly served, hot and tasty. A special mention to the chef Matthew that was on in particular. Making sure my dietary needs were caters for.

Jodie is a great waitress and goes the extra mile to look after you.Ed and Dan in the kitchen cooked my steak to perfection.They all work so hard. Well done

Had a lovely meal here. Will definitely return again sunday lunch were amazing amy h was lovely to our table and dan the chef cooked our food.

good meal. Hot, well prepared and a good helping. Serviced with a smile. 30% off. Only down side it was quiz night so had all the questions and crap coming over the speaker system. Pain in the butt.

Iola was very polite and very friend

A wonderful meal out with my husband, with some amazing friendly and welcoming staff. A big thank you to Kaitlin who was only on her second shift but was a real asset to the restaurant team and was even concerned she had messed up when she hadn't. Also a big thank you to Jodie for her unwavering hospitality whilst we were at The Tawny Owl and as we were leaving. Would highly recommend and will definately be back.

Jodie was a star. Friendly, professional always smiling and she had a really genuine personality. Music was way too loud for such a small venue. Luckily we had a table furthest away bit if we hadn't we'd not have stayed, so worth considering the volume to avoid losing custom.food was pretty good with steak a bit chewy but tasty. Overall Jodie and the service made the experience.

Food was nice and arrived fast. Great service from Lexi 👍

Enjoyed a meal Tuesday with my Husband, I had the sirloin steak, husband enjoyed a mixed grill, lovely meal & steak was cooked to perfection by the chef Kian, will be visiting again soon 🌟

Good food, thanks to the best chef , Ed 😀

Visited the tawny for a family meal was lovely would definitely visit again. Id like to say thankyou to Amy H for a very friendly service and dan the chef cooked our steaks perfectly.

Lovely pub and I couldn't fault the service I'm always cautious when dinning out, but Daniel made me feel at ease talking me through there allergen filters on the website. Thank you for a fantastic birthday meal out will definitely return.

Wonderful experience, wonderful food and friendly staff. Amy served us and was very accommodating. Informed of chef Ed’s name who cooked us a delicious surf and turf. Highly recommend. Ask for Ed.

Came in for a steak after work. It was lovely and cooked to just how I wanted! Thank you Dan and Ed.

Lexi was brilliant, thank you for excellent service

Had a fab time and our waitress Jodie always makes our vist a pleasant one

Taken there by friends who live in a nearby village. It's a relatively new build pub/restaurant and offers the usual Marston's fare. Service was excellent with very friendly staff

Food was amazing staff very nice and friendly definitely be back

We booked online, which was quick & easy. We were seated as soon as we arrived and a waitress took our drinks order within a few minutes. Food arrived in good time and was hot. Portion sizes were a little smaller than expected but overall my wife and I were happy with our meals. Our waitress was friendly and attentive and was very pleasant to our 4 year old daughter. Would visit again :)

Thank you Darcie, lovely friendly service.

Jodie was a wonderful waitress and very attentive to our needs.

Nice atmosphere. Calm and relaxing with lots of space. Staff friendly and helpful. Service quick. Food and drinks good

I just wanted to give a massive shoutout to all the staff at the tawny owl, they are all so lovely and friendly! Especially Kayleigh. The food was really great. Overall the whole experience was 10/10 would absolutely recommend

had a lovely time with family food was great and jodie was amazing really looked after us such a hard worker

We had a lovely meal on Tuesday 20th Aug. Very nice. A blonde haired lady called Amy serviced us and she was really lovely too. Polite, friendly and really attentive. Thank her for us please! We’ll be back soon!

Service was spot on. We arrived late to eat and nothing was too much trouble. Food was very good and Amy the waitress was spot being attentive friendly and totally on the ball. So refreshing to receive such good service when so few seem to achieve this now. My friend and I will definitely be back.

We were served by Amy B, a lovely young lady, who made sure all our needs were met

Had a meal here not happy with it had a chicken burger with chips burger ok but chips were over cooked or left under the hot lamps for to long. Also my son had a medium rare steak but came over cooked. Was not asked if everything was OK as I would have said something every time we go there it's well below par

Good for a family Sunday roast but the service is a bit slow. However, food is good and staff friendly and helpful. Lunch with the family today, food still good and service is improving.

Staff were lovely, helpful and very efficient, nothing was too much trouble, didn't have to wait long at all for each course and the food was nice, prices very reasonable especially with the offer code for 30% off mains

Always feel very welcome from the staff. Always interact with the granddaughter. All very pleasant. Always stop off here on our way down to West Norfolk.

Great food, great service just a shame the pool table was occupied by 4 children who were banging the cues, shouting and sitting on the table while staff watched on oblivious

Great food and amazing service by Jodie :)

Good service , food was okay , decent selection of drinks , decent coffee.
