“Had a couple of very good Sunday meals here. Nice pub with a separate dining room. Excellent food and you do get a lot. Also veggie friendly - if you mention that when you book the chef will do a special meal, which my wife said was very tasty.”

“Arrived without booking with a large group, staff found use an area without issue, they welcomed the dogs and said hello to the baby’s. The 2 members of staff were great! Good was nice too!”

“This evening I phoned in and ordered for collection , the service was fantastic and the staff very friendly and chatty , but most of all the food for takeout was wonderful.”

“Yeah it's a more expensive option but at least the food is always consistently great and has been exactly what we had ordered, it's always delivered on time too and by great drivers. Been ordering from here for years, never once had a bad experience. I do wish the twisted dough balls would hurry back though!”

“Really great service, so cute inside and the food was perfect i wish i found this place sooner! Arancini and cannolis were perfect ”

“Great little hidden gem, very friendly owners great for family time out .we are not gluten free it would be nice to do a mixture of food for people that aren't gluten free ? great prices”

“The Sandwichery is my go-to spot for a lunchtime treat! The food here is always fantastic – they don’t hold back on the fillings, and each bite is packed with flavor. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. Plus, it’s great value for money, which is rare to find these days. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a satisfying, delicious lunch!”

“The best pizzas in Retford, properly made and full of flavour, not grease. Added the chips to this order - best in Retford too!”

“Small cosy little place, great in winter. They do a fantastic breakfast and the tea/coffee is also superb. The atmosphere is obviously very good with it being such a small place and despite them always being busy, the service is very quick! Would highly recommend Taste if you're at a loose end in Retford.”

“Warm welcome as we arrived. Had the lobster, salad and side of frys. It was well presented and absolutely delicious. Great selection of seafood with thick slices of good quality bread and butter. Finished the meal with a lovely chocolate brownie and ice cream. Lovely evening.”

“Excellent breakfast wrap. Service was spot on, food was very fresh and price was great.”

“My friends and I went for a cooked breakfast. We had to wait as it was all cooked fresh but it was delicious. I picked up a cheese scone on the way out as they looked amazing but didn't get round to eating it until 3 days later, it was gorgeous. Can't wait until I go back. Thank you.”

“We have visited a few times for drinks but today was the first time we dined. The Sunday lunch was wonderful - better than anything else we've had in the area. Great staff lead by a fabulous host and the pub itself is lovely and in a good location. No hesitation in recommending this place”

“Visited several times for meals always cooked to perfection. Sunday lunch did not disappoint the pork just melted in my mouth. All the vegetables are fresh and served piping hot. Would definitely recommend. Staff are welcoming, friendly and nothing too much trouble”

“Gate Inn is a pleasant place to stay. The location is convenient, close to the main attractions. The rooms are clean and cosy, there is everything you need. The staff is friendly and attentive, always ready to help. Breakfast is tasty, with a wide choice of dishes. In the restaurant you can try local specialities. Prices are moderate. From the minuses - sometimes it can be noisy because of the proximity to the road. Overall, I recommend Gate Inn for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Excellent value for money.”

“We stayed the one night in their Farrier room. Total luxury, friendliness and professionalism from check in to check out. The room was stunning, well thought out and had quality items for us to use. The menu does look extensive and it took a while to choose something but what we ended up with couldn't be faulted, absolutely delicious. The owners are super friendly and unpretentious and their hands on approach topped off a lovely stay, we shall return.”

“EDIT: Went back with cash and the service and banter was top notch. Food decent too. Would recommend Heard great things about this place so drove up for big Friday tea for the family only to walk in and see 'Cash Only' sign. Chippy tea not cheap these days so didn't have enough in pocket to pay as, like most people, don't tend to carry cash these days. Will probably come back another time to try the food and leave another review then”

“This is in our opinion the best fish and chip shop and definitely the longest serving. Fabulous little find with a restaurant at the side for anyone wanting to eat in The fish is out of this world and we have tried others but we are always comparing it to JM's. Polite and friendly staff and during covid they have provided an excellent service too. Well done and thank you”
