The best restaurants serving British food in Castle Newark and Sherwood East Midlands

Beautiful visit here for a jacket potato and cake not long ago. Food was delicious! Can’t wait for an icecream in the warmer months! Absolute gem of a place

Exceptional dinning experience. The depth and combination of flavours of the meal was some of best I have had. Lovely atmosphere with staff that put you at ease and made the whole visit a pleasure.

This place is a little gem! Dropped in on a wet Wednesday and was told about their latest creation, The Cuban Sandwich with Mojo sauce. Wow! It’s got, ham, pulled pork, cheese, pickles, mustard, and I don’t know what else! But it was simply delicious. All the elements combined beautifully to create this culinary masterpiece. The coffees were great too. I also love their attention to detail, everything was beautifully presented and the take-away packaging is environmentally friendly. If I pass through Newark again, I’ll definitely make a bee-line for The Loft.

Proper jackets, nice staff, great portions - perfect. We used to get jackets from this place around 30 years ago, and they’re still as good as I remember them! 🥔🧀

We ended up in Newark feeling very hungry, having found the A17 from Norfolk surprisingly void of good cafes. Not been to Newark before and, I'll be honest, the first place we tried, so I can't compare with what's around. However, what we wanted was a place that did a sensible (not too fancy, not too greasy spoon) vegetarian breakfast god coffee and was dog friendly. We had the vegetarian and vegan breakfasts. The veg sausages were particularly good and we all left satisfied and full. We're sticklers for a really good coffee and this was definitely firmly in the good coffee category. Friendly service, really quick and you can see them cooking in the kitchen. The Quiches for the day we're being baked and if we come back, we'll give them a try for sure.

Stopped here in way back from Cumbria, just needed a Sunday lunch haha, and this was a lovely lunch, I think some of the interia is dated and could do with a luck of paint, but the food that comes out is perfect (which is what your there for haha ) service was good to, will definitely stop again to sample other things in the menu

Lovely food ,well presented . Great atmosphere, attentive staff . Restaurant was roomy enough to get a pushchair round . Well done..

When you walk in you are acknowledged and welcomed. Ian is a star in keeping his beers in tip top condition whereas Jackie runs the kitchen with speed and efficiency. The food is real - not boil in the bag and the variation in specifically theme nights every week means you don’t get tired of the menus. This pub is a must if you are within 30 miles its well worth a visit. You won’t be disappointed.

What a great little bar and restaurant! We loved it.

Believe Me guys you'll find any better in Newark on Trent...should be Newark IN (the) Trent!!!

I am so grateful for Colin Middleton, working the night shift on Saturday 23rd Nov. He went above and beyond!

very friendly place , on main road near all ameneties. Had a late breakfast, very nice . Reasonably priced. Great atmosphere, like it very much

Absolutely gutted that this Wetherspoons closed it's doors. A really handy spot to have a break, a bite to eat and continue on around Newark. A sad, sad loss.

Lisa’s service is always outstanding. And all the team too :)

Delicious Sunday Roast . First class food at fabulous price. Proper home made gravy and superb roast beef and veg . Friendly people and good service
