Town Best Cafe

3 Market Pl, Retford

I've been coming to town best for over 10 years, every Saturday (and sometimes Sunday) for a good start to the weekend.

Every friend and family who I've brought always comments on how good the food is.

Hoping for another 10 years at least!

(Get a set 1 with hash browns for the best breakfast?)

Unbelievably good service. I was served by George and I can honestly say ive never had better customer service what a lovely young lad. I wasn't sure what to have so I asked him what he recommends and was so helpful and patient with me. All I can say is definitely a 5 star for him.

The Herbalist Rooms

1-3 Bridgegate, Retford

Keith was incredibly helpful and responsive! He made sure I had the app and that I understood the instructions and access codes. The rooms are quite central with easy access to most main shops in the area.
Our room was rather small but very clean; there were clean towels and some small toiletries.

Some cons are:
- thin walls (we were in room 11 and could hear noise from room 13 very clearly)
- a strange green light was lit on the ceiling and we had to cover this up as it was too bright with the lights off
- the window is next to the main street, so traffic was very audible by the early morning
- shared bathrooms - not ideal
- no blackout blinds, so the room was bright by early morning
- very basic toiletries (no hairdryer, etc)

Open Kitchen - Chinese Takeaway

24 London Rd, Retford

Everytime ive ordered the food has been amazing. Me and missus regularly order their noodle boxes. I have hot box missus has combo box. This along with a sauce of choice is a gorgeous meal each. Highly Recommend. 5star. Never had a issue to comment but the staff every time i have made a mistake, or ive needed to change anything or by chance collected instead of delivery! The staff have been brilliant helpful and attentative. Thank you for a lovely meal each time. Please ignore belows negative comment the place is full of well wiped clean stainless steel surfaces. It is a working kitchen so expect the odd bit of mess. But cmon ive been in a few times and each time not messy at all so have no idea where the below post is referring too... or is it a spam reviewer or sabotager judging by not using full name or a name at all.... highly recommend so please give this place a try...

Beer Under The Clock

Town Hall Yard, Retford

What a fabulous little place !! We only stopped for a quick drink, late afternoon, so can't comment on evenings here, but we loved the place. Great selection of real ales, which apparently changes on a regular basis. Just sandwiches/light bites for food. Great decor. Friendly bar chap. Tucked away just at the back of the market square, so plenty of town carparks nearby. Will most definitely visit again.

We had such a lovely experience at The Gate Inn, Sutton cum Lound! The team made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived — amazing service, great atmosphere, and even better food. The Sunday roast was next level (huge portions and so delicious!), and the steak and ale pie was proper comfort food at its best. We couldn’t resist trying dessert too — the sticky toffee pudding was an absolute dream! The Gate is such a cosy, friendly spot — perfect whether you’re after a relaxed meal, a few drinks, or somewhere to celebrate with friends and family. Definitely one of our new favourites! Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food, fab service, and a lovely atmosphere. We’ll be back for sure!
