The best restaurants in Caunton Newark and Sherwood East Midlands

Wow! Had heard great things about this little place and decided to treat my mum to lunch here. Arrived and it was very busy! Got given a beeper and told there were 3 tables ahead of us (no booking system.) Finally got seated after about 30 minutes and my goodness - worth the wait! I had a mocha which was delicious and ordered the brie and redcurrant jelly toastie. Had it with bacon and it was sensational! Mum had the liver and bacon which she said was delicious! My little boy got a half portion of beans on toast that was just perfect for him and reasonable (no kids menu but just half the portion, half the price from the main menu which made perfect sense!) Prices for the quality and enjoyment of the food were great in my opinion. We were eyeing up the cakes but we're just too full on this occasion but we'll definitely be visiting again! There was an amazing winter warmer deal on with soup and a sandwich that seemed really popular! Great service too from friendly staff who couldn't do enough to help! This place is a little gem!

Went here today with my exercise class. We had hot drink and biscuits then a talk about floral media then a demonstration of a tied bouquet of flowers from the gardens where couples can have their wedding. Then a delicious buffet prepared by Steven plenty of choice and delicious A good outing and warm welcome from Paula and Steven.

This was a wonderful find and I have been back on a number of occasions. The food is amazing and the staff and atmosphere is brilliant. The sad note to this is that it is closing soon and we will be missing yet another excellent pub due to lack of custom. I’ll be very sad to see the end of yet another amazing establishment.

Great location and friendly staff Opening hours do need updating here but booking in advance will help you with timings Dog friendly

Absolutely fantastic place to dine at. Food is great, staff are brilliant. It's definitely worth a visit.

Second visit to this lovely village pub. The occasion was a wine night with four small plates of food accompanied by four delicious wines accompanied with wine notes from Dan, the wine sommelier at Small Beers Ltd, Lincoln. What a fabulous evening! All four food courses were just wonderful, full of different flavours bouncing about on your tongue; scallops and king prawns to start, sea bass to follow, medium rare sirloin next and a strawberry and basil panna cotta to finish, all enhanced by Dans outstanding wine pairings. With a glass of bubbly provided upon arrival, all the above for £35 per head, incredible value for money! We drove there in our Motorhome which we were allowed to park overnight on their car park with a lovely dog friendly field adjacent to it. Sam Harrison is the amazing driving force behind these efforts, ably assisted by his fantastic team, both front and back of house. An outstanding job guys, we’ll be back and heartily recommend this place.

What a great country pub, my mothers wake was here and the staff were brilliant plenty of buffet food. I certainly will go back for lunch and a drink.

Not sure what’s going on with this place, been shut for nearly a year, no communication from the owners or updates about an opening date. Very sad.

Had been meaning to give this place a go for weeks, as we constantly drove past the sign. Never got the opportunity for one reason or another. So we took a chance and gave it a whirl on a weekday. It was very nice, welcoming, etc, etc. However, the prices did seem way off the scale for what appeared when the order arrived. It was very expensive and not THAT good to be honest. You don't mind paying a premium when the quality is top notch, but this really wasn't. No better than what you would expect to find in a supermarket and twice the cost. We left bitterly disappointed and still a bit hungry.

We were there for a family funeral. The staff were fabulous. The buffet laid on was excellent, great quality and lots of choices. I highly recommend

Used to be lovely pub. Gone downhill. Very basic inside Wouldn't go and eat there. Shame
