Amazing food and brilliant service staff were helpful and Friendly. The decor was very appeasing and everywhere was clean. I would definitely recommend this family friendly pub. Thank you for a lovely experience.
Superb food cooked and presented to perfection with efficient & friendly service. Will definitely be going again soon and would not hesitate to recommend this place.
We all had a lovely evening. The food was great and the service was really good. Would definitely go back and would recommend for a good evening out.
Good atmosphere, very friendly staff very attentive. Food good and very busy but did not have to wait or ask for anything. Service very good unlike the Lambley Kitchen whom we used to support but no longer after such a poor experience last weekend. Locals go to the Railway instead.
Good meal, good service, what more is there to say!! Would recommend to anyone in the area, they go that little bit more for you
Lovely restaurant and bar, fabulous food and exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, would highly recommend. We ate outside in glorious sunshine, waitress got cushions for granny Jean to make her more comfortable, very thoughtful and kind.
Had Sunday roast sitting in the sun- great menu something for everyone- our vegetarian friend was very pleased with the choices available - everything was perfectly cooked. Very good puddings. All were generous portions. Very good staff too- friendly and knew the menu. Great village pub. Definitely recommend and well worth the trip- right by the station at Lowdham (Newark- Nottingham line) for anyone coming by train!
Great service but quality of food did not match expectations. Unfortunately the food tasted as if it was prepared hours in and advance and reheated.
The Railway is a very welcome addition to the village and there is a really good ambiance. The service was excellent and we enjoyed our food. However, we felt there was room for some improvements: the ham hock terrine really needed to be served with some bread or toast (we were given this on request) as a few crisps were not enough, and my friend was disappointed with her rhubarb and yoghurt dessert - she found it bland, and there wasn't enough rhubarb. Very much recommended.
Excellent service, lovely surroundings and great food. The set lunch menu is an absolute bargain with very nice presentation and plenty on the plate. Absolutely superb in every respect
Enjoyed a very well cooked meal,it was all very enjoyable.Service was excellent.The resteraunt is nicley decorated and all areas very clean.Would recommend a visit either for a drink or a meal.
Second visit in 3 weeks and 2 different menus sampled. Absolutely fantastic food. Will be back again soon and would recommend to others. Staff are friendly and generally attentive. Only piece of constructive feedback would be that staff could do with circling the room more often. On both visits there were one or two times where we had to get up to flag down a member of staff e.g. after a dessert had been missed or we wanted to pay the bill.
Can not speak highly enough about the staff fabulously friendly. Food was marvellous. We will go again. Also we liked the decor. There was a couple of pictures I wanted myself😁
Lovely restaurant , great quick polite service and value for money on the early bird menu, food was presently very well, arrived in good time and was delicious.
Fabulous night with friends. Food excellent good music and atmosphere will be going back shortly in fact tomorrow for a ladies lunch. Sure they will all like it.
Ordered olives and bread before starters ...and then starters came before we had finished eating these ..would have been better to wait a while so felt a bit rushed
Menu was creative, The taste and ingredients excellent. Dining was first class. With an improvement in service and ambiance it would have been a 6 rating
Our first visit and it will not be our last... Super food and service with a lovely atmosphere The revamp of the premises is in keeping with its history...
Very nice atmosphere and service although they did forget our drinks. The food choice was small and could do with a couple more main choices. The risotto and bream were lovely but I've better burgers locally.
Amazing food. Great service. Lovely place. Had a nice glass of wine sitting outside in the sunshine before we dined. Desserts - OMG! Will definitely be returning.
Good food and service. Would recommend to eat here . Also plenty of choice when it comes to drinks. If your after good food at reasonable prices then you can't go wrong here.
Ate here today, we ordered roast beef and the burger- all really enjoyed our meals. Also had a selection of desserts, they were also delicious. Great service from friendly helpful staff.
A great improvement on the previous incarnation of The Railway Inn. Good quality food from a short but carefully chosen menu. Choice is good enough and better than a standard pub menu. Service was slow at times but not annoyingly so. We will be going again!
Brilliant service and food. Great way to celebrate being 50! The staff were very kind to the children even when they were a bit noisy.
Great interior design creating lively but relaxing ambience. Attentive service and attractively presented food. On trend gastro-pub vibe with food of a high quality. Recommended!
We arrived a little early. So we had a drink in the bar area. We were greated with a lovely girl who took us to our table. The food & service was excellent. We will definitely be recommending it to others.
Food and staff were excellent. Car parking could do with improving as the car park was full. The deserts were outstanding and the staff couldn't do enough to help you.
Great evening, excellent food and service. As vegetarians we apppreciated having more than one choice on menu. Pub looks good after recent refurbishment. The atmosphere was buzzing, for a Thursday night.
Great food, lovely atmosphere and they have done a really good job with the decor to create an inviting and friendly ambiance. The service was also excellent. The only criticism (which applies to a lot of places these days) is that the price of a bottle of good wine is becoming ridiculously expensive. Otherwise the meal was good value for money.
The Railway is a beautifully renovated pub with a gorgeous beer garden. Aimed at family diners, the menu is varied and good value for money.
We went to the Railway inn on Sunday for lunch. The meal was really nice. Excellent meat, lovely veg and 2 Yorkshire puddings. Followed by sticky toffee pudding & ice cream. Great meal. Good value for money. If I had a complaint it would be that there wasn't enough gravy but they provided more on request.
Very nice food, environment and service. Floater coffee best I have ever tasted. However felt waitress too attentive which made us feel rushed. Set menu uninspiring for a meat eater.
The atmosphere was good & the pub was very busy. The food was delicious, but the service was very slow. This spoilt it a bit unfortunately.
Greeted with a smile & a friendly face. Immediately felt the buzz and great atmosphere. The Railway had all the character and charm of a country pub with a modern twist.
Lovely atmosphere, good food and excellent staff, particularly Drew. Would definitely visit there again very soon. Refreshing change of venue and nice food with helpful and experienced staff.
Great decor inside and out. Small selection of food but it was very tasty and reasonably priced. Lovely and friendly staff. Sometimes hard to get staff's attention.
Great food, staff and service! Whether it's drinks after work or a meal out, this is the place to be! Just what Lowdham needed! Highly recommend.
Fantastic food, lovely venue and lovely staff! Definitely worth a visit! We came for Sunday lunch and really enjoyed it - I'd definitely come back!
Brilliant: courteous and thoughtful serving staff and amazing food. We could see the food being prepared from where we sat and every dish was given attention to detail before being allowed from the kitchen. Wow! Love the atmosphere too. We'll be back.
First meal here last night - absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Waiting team were very attentive and friendly, the food was amazing (we had steak and the beef) - both of which just melted in the mouth. Lively atmosphere, will definitely be visiting again very soon.
