Lord Ted — Restaurant in Newark and Sherwood

Can't complain about the food, but on recent visit on Saturday it seemed as though my partner was being rushed to finish off Her meal. Twice a young blonde girl waitress came to table asking if meal was finished so interrupting our peace. Secondly a male with balding black haired and glasses placed reserved table markers on tables beside us. He then rearranged table beside us 3 times while also looking over at us to see if our meals were finished to my annoyance. He obviously told young waitress girl to keep pestering us to see if our meal was finalised with hense She got a telling of by myself. I complained about the situation at bar to no avail. Barman couldn't care less only to say He has to move tables around. My question is why was He doing this throughout our meal and then sending female waitress to pester us to see if my partner had finished meal? If a planned reserved table event is on why not organise said area well in advance rather than interrupting the likes of us constantly? Maybe we should go elsewhere in future and I shall advise people/extended family to go to Muston Gap on a52 or maybe elsewhere in Newark?

Morning Chef was excellent, we were the last of the people He served in afternoon. Happy fella who deserves praise. Shame his work was ruined by the annoyance of musical chairs and tables as my partner called it, overbearing looks and approaches of have You finished your meal so I can snatch plates away with...

Update since last review: we went to collect Too Good to Go bag. Once reached the turn to pubs car park our way was blocked by angry nasty woman who turned out to be an employee of this place. despite clearly blocking entry to the car park by stopping her can in the middle of road she insisted we should reverse our car all the way to farndon road. She abandoned her vehicle with engine on and went back to pub to request assist and managers assistance in proving us how she’s wrong but we should think she’s right lol. Manager was very abrupt, been knocking on our car windows, gesticulating like a possess person until realised his nasty member of staff was in the wrong. Haven’t heard word of apology, instead he’s run away back to restaurant after convincing his employee to correct her vehicle position on the road and stop causing obstruction to car park entry. Faulty towers of gastronomy this place is.

The food used to be much better here. Since the bar staff changed, the quality has declined. A friendly and professional staff member was replaced by someone who doesn’t acknowledge customers and instead complains about her job. If she dislikes it here, she should consider leaving. I used to visit regularly for both food and "Too Good To Go" bags, but now, since those picking up the bags are treated poorly, I avoid it. Orders are frequently canceled even when food is available, leading to...

Everything was ok even some parts good just for me some of the customers were very rude not taking care of there own kids leting them run a muck i didnt feel comfortable with that its a pub not a council estate and im sorry the staff do not get payed a lot its a green king pub thay defo dont get payed enough to deal with your kids coz your a bad parent

So the food was ok just laking a little i would eat it but it was a little mediocre i couldnt say its trable but its not amzing saying this the price wasnt bad

beer was ok part from staff need more training in unstanding a bar as in do not serving hot glasses do not serve in wet glasses as this will affect the beer if you use a wet glass you will quite often see that the head on the bear will think very quickly and will not stay and when my beer is £5 i expect it to be severd correctly I understand within the Greene King pub there is quite a lot of training and most of the training is load of rubbish but these are the things that managers should point out to give the best possible customer experience so I feel like this is a failing on the manager's behalf as well
