The Wollaton Pub & Kitchen in Nottingham

Nice pub grub food. Great service.

Great pub and great service nice people and excellent food. Thankyou Wollaton and Kitchens.

The food was nice although the parmasan cheese was too thickly grated and could have been put on when the meal was brought to the table as its an aquired taste. The drinks were far too expensive, I was basically charged £10.20 for 2 cordials. The waiter was efficient and very friendly.

Great place for a family meal, although unfortunately they'd run out of most options for Sunday lunch by 4pm. Food was good and staff were friendly with good service.

Lovely food for lunch and great table service. Hope to visit again.

Good location, plenty of parking. Pub food from a pub. Good quality, great service, relaxed atmosphere, worth a visit when local.

Below average food and inattentive service.

We had the fish and chips with our 97 year old dad. He said it was the best fish and chips he’s ever had and that’s some accolade. Well done to the talented chef he should be commended for his work and talent as the food is absolutely amazing. The service is brilliant too.

My dad’s favourite place His meal is the cod and let’s just put it like this’ if they ever get rid of the chef who does it we won’t be coming back again!! The food is amazing for its price Hats off to the chef he’s brilliant 👌🏽🤙🏼

Sunday lunch. Probably the best I’ve ever had!

Unfortunately this was my 2nd visit there won't be a 3rd

Nice pub. The pizza was disappointing and not very tasty but some of the other food ordered by the table looked good and they enjoyed it. A good place to have a few quiet pints.

Nice food, nice atmosphere, dog friendly, near the park.

Roten fruits and sour cream on my dessert. Rude aggressive manager who lack communication skills

Local to me, but now gets fewer visits from us, can be quite an expensive afternoon out while drinking here.

We've been here a few times as it's out local however on the last two visits the food has been awful, either overly salty or too much pepper, i swear i even tasted pepper in the apple and rhubarb crumble topping. such a shame as the atmosphere is great at this place

Massive improvements needed! Service very slow and waited a good half hour to be served! Food itself is a complete disaster and a massive cry for help. I could've gave one star only, but bumped it up as furnishings and interior is very good and although service was beyond too slow, some staff seem to be trying and polite enough which is why I scored service a generous three stars. Massive improvements needed including better faster service and better quality food!

The worst pizza I've ever had. Both me and my wife had two different pizzas and both had no flavour at all. Mine was burnt and all I could taste was burnt toast for the rest of the night. I didn't want to say anything at the time as it would of ruined the special occasion. But put the fact that mine was burnt to one side, my wife said the same ( no flavour ) For saying it was a very quiet night and not many people in the pub, the drinks service to the table was a bit of a joke as the staff member was on the phone instead. Coffees going cold at the bar. I ended up getting my own drinks. Thanks for a crappy night, you won't be seeing us again for your over priced food and drinks. Poor form..........

Great breakfast well balanced price. Need to be a dog lover.

Nice looking pub, food came quickly, my fish and chips was great but my daughter’s chicken nuggets were cremated. After we got the bill it took about 20 minutes for them to take payment and they only did after I flagged a waitress down, it was around 3 pm and the pub was empty. A single course took about 90 minutes from entering to leaving.

Really nice restaurant. Food was great and atmosphere is fantastic. Staff are very friendly. The battered cod was delicious and pork belly was tasty with mash potatoes and vege.

This was a family gathering and we booked a space the called the boardroom and had a buffet for 15 of us. The food was good and the staff were helpful.

Sunny day. Stopped for a cuppa in the garden. Tried the home-made sausage roll.

Lovely meal, great value for money. Friendly helpful staff.

Came with family, food was not that good. The way people go on about the pub I expected better. Guy in white shirt black trousers tall dark hair( maybe manager) was not nice, not welcoming. No staff had smiles all looked fed up maybe because they have a manager like that. Would not go again.

We had dinner here for while attending the Archery GB National Tour Finals. The food was very good. We both had the 8oz steak and it was cooked to perfection. We didn't have the fish and chips, but saw a few coming past our table and they looked amazing. Definitely will try it next year. The service was quick and attentive and the staff very friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Very nice staff very professional and kind & very helpful. Service not long to wait for your meal. The beer garden is very big and spacious. Lovely in the summer/ autumn

We enjoyed main courses here as part of birthday celebrations. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was hot and we all enjoyed the dishes we chose.

Fantastic place to meet up with family and friends 😀

It was very stressful ordering food from a loud bar. I had to shout the order as the till was tucked away in the corner. The order arrived with one meal missing, I had to reorder that meal and pay again (I wasn't charged first time) and by the time that meal arrived we had all finished our meals/drink. No apology for there error.

16 of us served within half an hour empty plates all round excellent food and service. We were all impressed!

Family party of 16 get together & everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food was really good, hot & came out pretty much altogether which is quite impressive for a large party! Staff very attentive & professional. Brilliant 👏 thankyou

This place is total rubbish, service appalling, staff rude.The manager does not know what day it is.

Total rubbish, service appalling, staff rude and unfriendly, manager does not know what day it is.

The clan was in the area and we reserved a spot here to get everyone fed and watered. Parking is free around the back. It's really nice on the inside but seems disorganised with the staff. There was a lot of chasing up food and it took a little while for it all to come out. We were in early and maybe they were still getting into the flow of things. Food was nice but pricey for what you get. Yet the service is what needs work on. Felt neglected once at the table and trying to chase up things wasn't the easiest. Would have given it another start for decent service but our experience was average. Hope you have a better one. Enjoy.

Been coming here since it was The Willoughby/The Greenhouse and watched it evolve over time. The current iteration of the Wollaton creates an interesting hybrid of local pub with a smart dining experience and great tasting cusinine. The service is friendly and nothing is too much to ask. The music outside can be a little loud on a Friday for casual drinkers (currently using temporary PA speakers rather than permanent ones in the building) but is to be expected to create the atmosphere of nightlife that Nottingham is known for.

Very nice food, nicely decorated, pleasent staff and good value prices.

Jerk chicken superb choice on the specials menu

Great beer garden out the front, quick service, good selection of beers on tap and good food.

Great atmosphere. Their gravy is amazing.

*UPDATED!!*DO NOT VISIT THIS DISGUSTING PLACE! Well unless you want to be attacked by the “local” gobby trollop and that behaviour is fully supported by Management, Joseph just to name one of them! @TheWollatonPK #wollaton #nottingham #Everyone #disgusting After posting my review of my personal experience of this place, I received this Facebook message from the director Matt Cullen! Sums it all up perfectly!

Another excellent, quality Sunday lunch.The food is always cooked to perfection and presented beautifully. Bar staff are always friendly and attentive and go the extra mile. The atmosphere is always welcoming and convivial.

Been many times before when we wanted something a little better than normal pub grub. But our recent visit on Thursday night was very dissapointing. Polite staff but poor service, poor quality food and the toilets very poor. Our waitress appeared to be inexperienced, which is ok. Wine glasses were actually sprite glass. The menu items were unclear what was actually available. The chips anemic which I didn't eat. The antipasti sharing starter was mostly bread. I mentioned the undercooked chips as I thought they needed to know and was offered 10% off the bill.

Wollaton has a well deserved reputation for its big Sunday lunches. If you are feeling hungry their is also an option with a trio of meats. We seem to always be there in pretty big groups and obviously chaotic they always seem to deliver what we need and are happy to provide sauces, extra gravy and replacement bits and bobs to please the fussy. Have not made it to deserts but it looks tasty. Never seem to be there for other meals but going by the Sunday lunch and thier sister pub it should be good.

Great family meal in a relaxing atmosphere

Terrible food don't go even my dog turned it down 👇 staff nice go for a drink not food

Basic meat and four veg. The Sunday Roast was lacking in a few areas. No crackling on a pork roast, even request it twice. Apparently the chef didn't have any. 🙄 No rush to go back.

Good staffing glassware needs some attention

First time here…..Didn’t have the chicken burger we wanted then when asked could change to Halloumi burger with same sides was told couldn’t!! Had chicken salad which was well over priced for a wing of chicken and some rocket salad…..missing the nuts, seeds and tomato, chips were horrible as clearly been reheated in microwave. Got the chips changed which was fair enough. After paying for the original chicken burgers which we didn’t get already paid before staff member said haven’t got…..overall was only £1 more for the salad, wasn’t asked did want it back…wasn’t bothered about the money but principle…….service was shocking didn’t have a clue and clearly didn’t want to be there, staff attitude was really unprofessional. First time here and wouldn’t recommend and won’t be coming back in a hurry!! Over priced rubbished, a shame the atmosphere is really good!

Went for the football but the food was really really poor. I hate to critise but from the burger to the fries that you had to order separately, with clumpy gravy on top. Not a great experience :(

Great place. Service excellent. Friendly and food superb. Very pleased and would recommend in a flash. Although pub food, was definitely of a high standard.

Would like to say a big thank you to you and all your staff for making our birthday meal for 19 a really good experience. It's the first time I have ever been out with a big group and been happy with how the evening turned out. The service was excellent the time wait was very good the food was very good and served hot all at the same time I was very impressed as that would not be easy with all the different meals. The only fault was that the pies were not home made and £17 for a basic pie was very expensive. The drinks were kept toped up the whole time I would definitely go again and recommend to all. Over all 19 meals and drinks for just under £500 was excellent. So well done staff and landlord of this pub. Thank you

Quick visit to daughter who is graduating this year. Previous trips, back and forth, have been a stop at McD's on tge A453, but I now feel I have missed out. This pub is very pleasant and the food generally reasonable. Disappointed the 'special board' baguette not available (we were there a little after 12, so not good planning by the pub). Unfortunately ordered 'the' special bonbon (think it was beef, but writing after several weeks), which was quite tasty but rather pathetic, noting the price wasn't huge. The other half's starter, I think baked camonbert, looked much more satisfying. Pie for main, which was tasty. All in all, not bad value, but I would avoid specials ... even if they are available. I would go again, but daughter coming home in a few weeks.

Very very expensive for non acholic drink £9.

Visited this evening for a meal with some friends. Very rarely do I feel the need to write a bad review but in this case, I have to. Where do I start on the problems we encountered. Firstly, I am vegan and also have a dairy allergy. We phoned in advance to check there were vegan options and were assured that there were plenty. On arrival I was told I could have a chicken salad, minus the chicken, the prawn tomato pasta, minus the prawns or the vegetable katsu curry. I asked about the pizzas they advertised and was told they had no vegan cheese. I have absolutely no issue with restaurants not offering vegan options as I don't feel I'm automatically entitled, it being a dietary choice, but we specifically called ahead to check. Also, the 2 dishes that just had the meat/fish removed, I was still expected to pay full price for. I ended up with the focaccia starter, just so I had something to eat, and they put a pack of dairy butter on the plate, despite me asking for the vegan option. Secondly, the service was horrendously slow. I totally understand they were busy but the wait for food was simply unacceptable. The only time that there was any rush was when they were bringing the bill and waiting for us to pay, they couldn't have been faster doing that. Thirdly, the toilets were absolutely disgusting. Clearly not being cleaned regularly. Finally, as we were leaving, someone had vomited in the main doorway to the pub. I understand this could have just happened but we had been stood at the bar a few minutes and didn't see it so clearly it had been there more than that. And to top it all off, it wasn't a cheap place to eat but I feel we would have been better at Wetherspoons. Would not recommend to anyone, avoid like the plague!

Superbly prepared food, unique menu, all at a price. Normally too much money for me but occasionally you have to splash out for quality. This is one of those times and I enjoyed every mouthful. Thanks again.

Fish and chips really top notch, some of the ale was past its best though.

Went for lunch on Saturday. We had 2 sharing platters between 3 of us. Very nice and tasty, followed by puddings of sticky toffee, and a huge Eton mess. The young serving staff were very polite, efficient and smart. Hope to go again sometime soon. Nice outdoor seating area for when the weather is nicer.

Just a lovely place to eat great food and drinks, staff are great and very helpful

Went for a birthday and we were first seated without enough space or chairs, and no menus brought to our table only to be told there is no table service despite it being a very expensive pub. We were told half priced cocktails were £7.50, so £15 usually which is ridiculous for a Nottingham pub. The service was very slow, and took a long time between courses. My friend has a fish allergy (not severe) and we were not asked of allergies before ordering, however she ordered the steak burger with mash instead of chips (in case the chips were fried with the fish) and ended up throwing up. They must either fry the steak burgers in the same oil as the fish ( which doesn’t make sense as they surely don’t deep fry a burger ) or their cleanliness is minimal and there is severe cross contamination. Would not recommend for the price whatsoever, spending at least £20 on a meal should mean much better service and cleanliness.

Took my mum and family here for her 75th birthday - glad I did as the food was excellent and the staff were very helpful with providing ramps for her mobility issues. They were kind enough to let us bring our own birthday cake in. Food prices are higher than other pubs in the area - but it's well worth it, it's top quality. Overall great food and great experience - everyone was happy. Will absolutely return and highly recommend.

Beautiful pub and friendly staff went for breakfast and didn't disappoint was absolutely yummy , definitely go back again

We came in on Monday and had the worst meal we've had in a long time. £17 for a steak & ale pie where the pastry tasted like cardboard and there was so much gristle and fat inside, it was just horrible. As for the ale, it must have evaporated. It was supposed to come with creamy mash, but appeared with a few chips and some cabbage. When we explained to the waitress that I cannot eat chips for medical reasons she said there was no mash available and returned with some crushed new potatoes and chopped spring onions. To be honest that was the best part of the meal but it was virtually cold by then. I really object to paying £17 for a meal that probably cost less than £2 to produce, made with no love whatsoever, just lazily slapped on a plate. So disappointed. Your chef needs sacking! We won’t be returning…

Worked here doing new carpets, really nice pub and the staff are lovely, the food looks amazing (gonna go visit soon and try) stylish interior and relaxing music

Great place lovely food highly recommended 👌

Amazing venue and staff are so welcoming

Have to say been going to the wollaton well over 15 years and loved it. But the last few times me and the wife have popped in for a drink the pub has lost its once had feel, and now your met with staff who look like there on the verge of a breakdown and im guessing the tall chap is the new manager? Have to say the wife and me find him very obnoxious and rude. Dont find him aproachable at all and each time he has served us for drinks, slams them on the bar. Always takes one person the ruin a good place!

Three of us had the pork belly needed at least another hour in an oven not very pleasent tough, cold and certainly not crispy....give it a miss

Cannot fault the meal & the service was superb Friday lunchtime

Nice pub that does lovely meals. You can eat in the bar which is dog friendly but we chose the restaurant, where dogs aren't allowed. Friendly staff

Dropped in for some food and pints. The main courses were lovely with some of the nicest battered fish I've had anywhere. The sticky toffee pud was excellent. The crumble was the only disappointment. The apples used in it seemed to be a bit bland

Lovely pub with really nice fresh breakfast. Dog friendly.

Got a table at last minute and great service and food. Lovely outdoor seating after.

Really nice, food was huge and delicious, good value and nice atmosphere

Great Sunday Lunch. Good menu choice with generous portions mains include Yorkshire pud, bashed roots, cabbage and roast potatoes as standard. Good ambiance, friendly, efficient and welcoming staff, all in all a great Sunday lunch experience

The roast potatoes lost the final star they were tough as old boots not at all appetising! Shame let down a otherwise excellent lamb Sunday lunch. Making them fresher rather than standing under a hot lamp can’t be that difficult.

This place was lovely, I truly enjoyed my time there, the food and our family gather.

I'd like to express my disappointment with our recent dining experience. Despite booking a table for 9 people, including 5 adults and 4 children, for Easter Sunday lunch to celebrate my birthday, we were seated in an area designated for dogs, even though we didn't have a pet. This was particularly challenging for my daughter, who suffers from allergies. When we requested to be moved, we were informed that they were fully booked and unable to accommodate us elsewhere. Additionally, the quality of the food was disappointing. I ordered the lamb, which was excessively fatty. Although we provided feedback to the staff, who appeared to be quite young, we didn't receive much of a response beyond a vague promise to inform someone else. Overall, the lack of attention to our concerns and the unsatisfactory dining experience has led us to the decision not to return. It's unfortunate that the staff didn't seem to demonstrate much care or concern for our experience.

Overrated. Food is most definitely not with the price. However, it has a lovely atmosphere outside in the Summer

Roast beef for Sunday lunch was outstanding. Good drop of beer as well.

Great venue with fabulous food, just very expensive

Went last nite . They had a party of 70 in . Went as a foursome . Spent over 150 quid with the wine and few drinks . Complained and got 5 percent off the bill . Only half menu available . Honest don't go there

I arrived and ordered a pizza was told there was a pre planned large party in and pizza were sold out, I assumed a large party ordering pizza would mean extras were ordered to supply the normies, so had to have a second choice which was a sub par burger sadly. Drinks were okay but when we asked the manager (jennifer) we was told was greeted with an aggressive attitude towards the food ordered. Wouldn't come again, our waitress was lovely and alot more approachable than the manager that greeted us, but it didn't help the experience sadly.

Arrived early on a busy Mothering Sunday Table not ready so asked to take a seat in the bar - no issues Table was the ready around 20 Mins after arriving Only menu available was Sunday lunch - so kids were a bit taken back - my own fault for not checking the menu availability Finally seated around 1730 when they stop serving around 1800 Marked down due to location of table - we had kids with us and table was not safe for it was place on a step between restaurant and bar service asked to move but no other table available Service was a bit hit and miss did not feel looked after and especially for what day it was There are independent chains doing this type of service much better - try the chilled pub groups across the boarder in Derbyshire , Yorkshire and Leicestershire Would not return

Good service but food disappointing Chose lamb dinner lamb was overdone 1 dry potato and all dumped on a lot of red cabbage and hardly any other veg

Treat for our birthdays.... Food was lush & the service was top tier! Very attentive! Great atmosphere & lovin the decorative features, cosy feels..... Thank you Wollaton

My glass of vodka just smells like a fish and they try to change it and give me a dirty glass it is not respectful

Excellent thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Very friendly and efficient waiter (Tommy) Food was good quality and well presented.

Absolutely adore this pub. Its our local and we can always count on the best food, drink and service. We decided to eat last Friday lunchtime and chose the Wollaton Beer Battered Fish and Chips, and we weren't disappointed. Beautifully crisp batter around moist white cod, lovely chips and mushy peas. Well worth a visit if you want 5* comfort food. The staff were great as always too. Many thanks team!

Had fish and chips was perfect and a very big portion excellent value for money

No customer service whatsoever....not asked if we enjoyed our food..or if we wanted dessert...place is so cold...heating not working...women's toilet flooors wet through..This place has gone downhill since the previous manager, chefs and other staff long term staff left....

Great service.. even though it was super busy...

Nice atmosphere, lovely efficient staff and good menu. Meal was excellent ate it in the bar area, but could have used the restaurant area.

The food was excellent and the service outstanding. Nancy our waiters, was very attentive, but not too attentive, and was an outstanding communicator. Overall a wonderful experience. Thank you.

We had booked a table prior to arriving. When we arrived we were informed the boiler was broken, but no one called or messaged us to advise this before hand. We sat in our coats as it was really cold. Food arrived luke warm and because the place was freezing, was soon cold. The upside was we were served by a lovely young girl, who was great. At the end of the evening, trying to get the bill and pay it took 30 mins. Owner was glued to her dog! https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g186356-d1952624-r940128140-The_Wollaton_Pub_Kitchen-Nottingham_Nottinghamshire_England.html#

Party of 10on a Sunday afternoon. Very slick service despite the place being rammed and showing the rugby Food was excellent , the fish and chips are superb Great service and reasonably priced Many thanks

If you like eating with dogs then this is the place for you. Unfortunately I’d rather eat my Sunday dinner without dogs around and the staff that bring the dog bowls out not bring my cutlery out 🤢. Very poor

Arrived at the Wollaton for Sunday dinner. We was put on a small table in the bar area that was already occupied by someone else which we had to ask to move also surrounded by football fans and dogs. As we sat there we realised that we was expected to go to the bar to order, something that if we had wanted that sort of service we would have booked somewhere else . As we watched the staff bring bowls out for the numerous dogs around the bar area that were sat on the settees and walking around the same staff also brought our cutlery and food out. The food was lukewarm and that’s being kind also having to ask for new cutlery after the starters, once we complained only then was we offered a table in the actual restaurant area. Unfortunately for me after being around dogs whilst trying to eat my appetite was gone . If you like being around dogs while you eat then this is the place, I like dogs but not around my food

Great food and friendly, helpful staff (Niya). Attended at a fairly busy time and was still served quickly. Food (steak and ale pie) was delicious.
