The Griffin Plumtree Main Road, Plumtree, Nottingham NG12 5NB

"1st time dining at the Griffin and I am impressed. The decor, clientele and food is excellent, as well as the service. My only suggestion, is the service for aperitifs could of been a little quicker. All of our table of five enjoyed it and will be returning very soon."

"We visited one Sunday before Christmas and enjoyed the best Sunday lunch we’ve ever had out. The food was amazing! The staff and service were great - really friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The restaurant itself is really lovely - nicely spaced out with lots of light. Good music that wasn’t too load whilst providing a good atmosphere for everyone. I hadn’t been to The Griffin for years and it has certainly changed a lot since I last visited - you can really see the investment they have made. It is a fantastic pub and restaurant with a beautiful bar and fireplace. Will definitely go again! Highly recommended!!"

"Popped in for a drink and food in the beer garden while on a bike ride but they had stopped taking orders for dinner by that time. Beautiful place and will definitely go back. Someone else's food came out while we were there and it looked amazing!"

"Be aware that the prices you see on the website, for food, are out of date and there has been at least £1.50, added to some meals. Friendly and welcoming staff The menu isn't huge, but has some weird and wonderful portions, including Lincolnshire poacher and truffle custard to start, hake Kiev, mussels, rib & chuck burger (just a beef burger really), egg custard, baked Alaska or cheese board to finish. Lovely open plan restaurant at the back in an extension. Seemed to be able to cope when there were only a few tables, but once it got busy, the staff seemed a little flustered, so much so, we had to wait over 30 minutes for our desserts, due to them being behind with checks. No one checked on us to see if our meals were ok or if we needed anything. This place isn't cheap and this is down to the fact it has recently been awarded an AA rosette. The food was very nice, but I won't be rushing back."

"Lovely place. Tasteful decor. Didn't eat there this time around but did enquire about gluten-free options which we have been advised they have many. Had an ale or two. Relaxing atmosphere with a warm ambiance."
