The original cafe style bar. The food is still top notch, the staff are still friendly and welcoming, the place is very clean and tidy & they now do regular live entertainment in the upstairs venue "Canvas"
Well done to all involved in keeping the standards so high for what must be 29 years now

Went to a pink tribute with the wife and friends and this place has hospitality down to a tee. The meal was fantastic and the staff were always around for more drinks orders. The venue is great. Very friendly staff and they have a wide variety of different acts planned throughout December and into the new year

Been coming to this place for years and customer service massively reduced in service . 2 for £12 cocktails advertised from 5pm however at 12.10am refused claiming they finish at 12am even though the cocktail menu doesn't state that. Doorstaff then tell us last orders and go to order and bar staff refuse even though another member of staff are serving vodka and cokes to another customer. Very poor inconsistent service and won't be coming back.

We went to see an act Friday. I have to say it was amazing. Not just the act but the food, staff and service were all incredible. Having a table and table service all night made it such a lovely experience. The staff were so polite and efficient they are a credit to the venue. We was so impresses so booked another event for all my family. This will be a regular location for us for sure as it's so different. Really smart and clean and also great value. Well done to the whole team for giving us such a great place to go in mansfield.

My previous review was:-
First time visiting as we went prior to a Palace theatre show as they offer a discount with theatre tickets so we thought we would give them a try. So glad we did. We hadn't booked so had a lovely table in the bar area. The staff were so welcoming and efficient. The menu was very varied and the food was amazing. We really enjoyed it and will be back again. Highly recommended.

Still the nicest place in Mansfield to grab some good food and drink. Amazing selection of drinks and the food is fantastic. Just love it

Have been twice in recent weeks, once for a surprise birthday party using the space upstairs (canvas) disappointed to find that upstairs we were being charged £8 per cocktail, however downstairs was 2 for £12! Cheeeeeky.

On our second visit, we had booked to go see 'dua lipa' being advised a day before that she had cancelled, by text message.
We had a table booked for food for roughly 20 people also, so decided to still go for the meal.

During the meal (pre orders were made as reqiested) we were told that items were not available and orders were having to be changed at the table (why have pre-orders)
One member of staff was overheard complaining about the size of the party to which another staff member replied, well you decided to book them in! (we had been booked in a few weeks and paid deposits, therefore preordered food should have been available!)

Dispite the staffing issues and pricing, the space is beautiful, even out in the smoking area where they have heaters. An outside bar (wasn't open when we visited) and a lovely relaxing area.

Decorated tastefully and very clean facilities.

Most of the food was really enjoyed by all!! My only complaint would be the lack of chorizo in the tagliatelle, The minimal amount given made no difference to the taste and brought nothing to the plate. (I'm convinced it's because it looked grated 🙈, chuck some chunks in it and be done)

The steak/chicken and pizzas were a big hit!!

The cocktails are well made and presented.

We came Christmas Eve 2022, the same as we do each year, the staff were fabulous , attentive approachable. Unfortunately most of the menu wernt available of what we could of had, we normally pay a deposit prebook however we were explained on booking we not need to. It were a shame on that side of it, i would recommend staff let you know beforehand before placing orders. Overall lovely atmosphere

Been today waited awhile for our meal .when it arrived it was delicious and worth the wait .I must just say two members of staff on the bar were very polite and welcoming but the poor lass was rushed off her feet ,deserves a bonus .Very professional credit to the pub .And the chef too .
