Super food, excellent presentation, good service and lovely surroundings to sit in. Only improvements would be a real fire to sit in front of in the far end seating area, and more parking on site but that's bring extremely picky.

Lovely Sunday lunch, somehow the roast potatoes were crisp and buttery in the middle. Just delicious They cook ‘normal’ size Yorkshire puddings and the meat and vegetables were really tasty.

Really great interior, really helpful friendly staff, Sunday roast a bit flavourless, but would definitely visit again to try something else off the main menu.

Service and staff excellent. Presentation impressive but unfortunately all 4 of us were disappointed with the main courses which were either tasteless or too dry although in fairness extra sauce was provided. Deserts were very good. Rather disappointing as we'd had such a positive experience previously

3 of us had lunch and all enjoyed it very much. The only negative comment I can think of was that the cauliflower soup was a bit on the tepid side and we had no butter with the bread - I expect we should have asked for some. We will keep returning.

We started with bread and dips. The bread was soft and lovely. I had duck to follow which was very good. The accompanying rosti potatoes were wonderful although the leeks were slightly tough. Afterwards I had a pineapple tarte which was absolutely marvellous. The service and atmosphere was very good. I eat out principally to eat fish and the reason I didn’t rate the restaurant with a six was because of the restricted fish choice. Only salmon was available and I like to have something less ordinary.

Another lovely meal at The Railway, menu is varied and should suit all tastes, the Early Bird type menu is good value and a choice of 4 main courses. Waiting staff are good and you never feel overlooked.

Wonderful atmosphere for Sunday lunch. Perfect roast dinner and a lovely dessert. All served attentively with a smile. If you’re looking for a great Sunday lunch, this is one of the nicest paces to eat in Nottingham. They do a good burger as well!

Food was great but the service let it down and I think it’s a bit expensive for Sunday lunch need more staff to make it better

Overpriced for a pub. Food was okay but not amazing. £8.50 for posh cheese on toast! Was tiny and hardly any cheese! no areas for a quieter meal as tables too close together. Felt like we couldn’t have a conversation without getting either table next to us involved.

The ambience is pleasant, although we would have preferred a circular table as 6 of us felt slightly cramped where we were seated. The service was spot on and the food excellent.

This restaurant has undergone a complete refit and looks good, feels good and yet retains its original concept of a railway pub with loads of memorabilia. The food is always excellent and viewable kitchen spotless.
