Restaurants in Southwell

The Spread Eagle

Called in on Saturday. Had Fish & chips, the wife had pie, nothing fancy. The food & service was great. No complaints here & not expensive. Will call in again.

Hearty Goodfellow

A wonderful meal on Bramley Apple Festival day. Food and drinks fantastic. Starters were tempura prawns and chilli dip great taste and just the right portion. I had steak with a Stilton sauce. Chips nice and chunky. My wife had chicken tikka Skewers lovely. Washed down with drinks plenty to choose from. To finish desserts were Rasberry Sorbet and celebrating the festival Bramley apple pie and custard so nice!!. Well done to all at the Hearty Goodfellow. Dave and Sue Hanks Halesowen West Midlands.

The Old Green Dragon

Interesting changes made to this place since I lived in Oxton. It was a necessary upgrade, however, the Ale on offer is a little diverse and not particularly well kept on my visit.
Didn't eat so can't comment on the food.

Old Coach House

Lamb shank was fabulous. Would be better if customer could be told in advance how long the food was going to take to prepare. Understand that food is freshly made that’s probably why, but considering this is next to an airport some perhaps would just like quick pub food that they don’t have to wait 30-45 minutes for. Otherwise great stuff.

Alfresco Caffe

I visited for the first time today to have lunch with my daughter & 2 friends & I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the wonderful staff who were so patient and kind as my little girl was getting overwhelmed with being in new surroundings & struggling to work out what she wanted to eat. It can be daunting going to new places with an unfamiliar menu but the ladies who served us were brilliant at offering something that my daughter considers to be ‘safe’ food & what nearly turned into a meltdown ended up being a really lovely experience with us even staying for dessert. Thank you again for great food & exceptional patience & service.

Sweets of Southwell

guy in there was absolutely lovely and super helpful! he made a little selection bag of vegan sweets and had a massive vegan range in the store! always lovely to talk to someone who really knows the stuff in their own shop! would recommend 1000%

The Red Lion at Thurgarton

Lovely welcoming atmosphere, staff very friendly and the quality of food was outstanding, wine choice was brilliant too, one suggestion would be a better choice of ales. But can’t wait to return

The Final Whistle

I've been here for the comedy nights and they're absolutely fantastic. Superb acts and a skilled compere. I doubt you can get as much fun for twice the cost of a ticket.

Birds

The birds bakery in queen street southwell notts is the very best went in today instead of the one in newark.the two mature lady behind counter gave service with a smile.a real welcome when you get to the counter. ?

Scoozi Pizzeria

My whole family have said I have to give this place five stars. Just great quality pizzas and salads, fantastic sizes. Lovely setting and incredibly helpful staff. Great prices. It’s good every time we go. Cannot recommend highly enough! They really prioritise quality above profit.

Ye Olde Bridge Inn

Booked here for a family lunch - 6 adults and 5 children - at short notice. A great venue, loads of outdoor space and very child-friendly; with lovely, helpful, attentive staff. Our table was in a very pleasant area.... And the food was good, too. We were impressed and would definitely recommend.

Mughal Rasoi

Went here due to a special night away for my husbands 50th
Booked after a day at the races
Food amazing
Very friendly
Went above and beyond going out to get a small cake and candles to help celebrate my husband’s 50th bday
Will definitely return

NTSU The Orangery

The Reindeer Inn

Stayed with my lady for the night and warmly greeted. Room was spot on with a comfy bed. The pub has a very local and welcoming feel to the place with nice beers. The local people are very friendly. Will definitely stay again next time we are up that way fishing on the trent again. Perhaps the people leaving revues moaning about noise need to realise ITS A PUB ffs. Maybe go down and sample a few yourselfs let yourself go abit?.

Shahi Kebabs

Wow, first time tonight having a donor kebab in Pershwari Nan.

The taste is incredible.

The donor meat really goes nicely with it and adds that extra bit of flavour.

Would order one every time.

The best kebab I've ever tried ?

Another Kebab in Pershwari Nan.

The service is outstanding.

Really friendly & welcoming

Customers feel really appreciated as soon as they walk in.

The best Kebab place in the world ?

The Saracens Head Hotel & Restaurant

The Saracen's Head Hotel is ideally situated in the centre of town, with access to all the amenities and attractions that surround the local area. The car park is situated behind the hotel, down the side street, but is easy to find by following the website's instructions. The hotel is very old and quirky, but is well looked after and decorated. There is a cobbled walkway from the car park, which could be a problem if you have mobility issues. The staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and appear to have multiple roles within the hotel. The rooms are up a beautiful winding staircase; I did not notice a lift. Our room was in the newer section of the hotel. The room was large, well laid out, and had all the amenities you would require. The hairdryer was a little old-fashioned, but it worked. The rooms were quiet considering the age of the hotel, and the beds were very comfy. The breakfast was served in the panelled dining rooms, which had some amazing clocks all chiming at different times. They offered juice, tea, and coffee, with a selection of four cereals. There was also a table of different fruit, jams, croissants, and butter. They only offered a full English breakfast, which had a good selection of ingredients, but I would have preferred a wider choice. Also, at the time we visited, there were no evening meals available; however, there are plenty of places to dine around the town. On the whole, yes, I would stay at The Saracen's Head Hotel again and recommend it to others. It is very charming and quirky, and so lovely to stay in such a beautiful building with so much history.

Gossips Coffee House

Traditional tea/coffee shop selling wholesome food. Busy at lunchtime but nice to have table service. Generously filled sandwiches - see photos, make food good value for money and freshly made. Soup and sandwich option recommended with triple decker ham & cheese with lovely lean trimmed ham. Also appreciated being able to order a cafetiere (french press) or pot of coffee as one cup is never enough!

Bamboo Garden

Had a takeaway from here while visiting on holiday.
The staff were friendly, the food was very tasty and prepared quickly.
All this for a great price.

Definitely recommend.

Admiral Rodney Southwell

Food was absolutely fantastic, and the bar staff are amazing. I urge everyone to come and visit. The regulars are excellent people. There is a charming young bartender with lovely brown hair and roughly 6 foot 3 inches tall. He will greet you with a smile every time. I recommend Nobby’s nuts

The Refectory

Nice bright cafe which is larger than I was expecting. I popped in for cake and a drink before visiting the Minster. You order at the counter and then it's table service. It was 10am and not particularly busy but the staff could have been quicker clearing tables.
