"On July 6th, we had the absolute pleasure of being cared for by Becky and her fantastic team for our Wedding Reception. From beginning to end, my new husband and I cannot praise Becky enough. Her commitment and passion for hosting events and curating the correct atmosphere was outstanding. In the year of planning, she made the entire experience personal. This included meetings frequently, helping us organize vendors and her impeccable taste in music helped us secure our acoustic guitarist Heather Flint, and her personal recommendation of The Frandells was an absolute hit with our guests! Despite the weather which tested us and forced our guests into arriving early, Becky and her team took everything in there stride. Throughout the last year, we’ve had tears of joy, excitement and laughter in the Plough at Normaton, and now every year for the rest of our lives, we get to relive the immense experience that Becky provided which made our Wedding Day so special. Dwayne the head chef helped bring to life our “Amsterdam fries” and KFC chicken idea with so many sauces which ourselves and our guests were in awe of. Our only regret, is we couldn’t eat more! Thank you Becky and the Team. We could not have done it without you (Maybe without the Penalty's though? Mr and Mrs Howard x"

The Sea Bream was off but they offered Sea Bass as a replacement, it was perfectly cooked with plenty of mussels and a lovely sauce. The veg was well cooked and the Patas Bravas a joy. This was a perfect lunch in the sunshine outside. Staff attenttive and pleasant.

Just won the best pub in Nottinghamshire for very good reason. Top pub ran by brilliant people, with Becky there it was always going to win and sure it will go on to win many more awards. We are always very well looked after and they are just brilliant with families.

Had a fabulous meal here, with very attentive service. Food is high quality, unique and delicious. Friendly and personable bar and restaurant staff. Only spoiled by an insulting customer who very vocally spoke to staff with contempt, clearly having nothing better to do and who hopefully will not return! View menu

Food good but expensive. Service started of slow BUT got even slower even though there were only 3 other tables occupied! We waited 35 minutes after ordering desserts, mentioned this to the waitress who returned to say they would be 5 minutes more 10 minutes later 3 of the 4 desserts appeared with no apologies, the 4th took 5 minutes more!!! Obviously we left no tip

I was very disappointed with the Sunday Lunch. I ordered pork belly which was barely cooked and soggy, no sign of any crackling. I asked for Apple Sauce which they didnt have. The vegetables were raw and impossible to cut. I asked for more and again still raw. On the third attempt, they were greasy and shrivelled. No apology. I was going to book for an evening dinner for 6 but after this experience I decided against it.

We visited The Plough today Sunday 3 March for my mums 90th birthday. There were 9 of us and we all had the most excellent Sunday roasts beef, pork belly and chicken we all said it was the most excellent lunch we’ve had in a very long time. We also had a 2 year old with us and he had a children’s sausage and mash such a refreshing change as he had proper sausages, some lovely mash and gravy he loved it. An amazing meal and we will definitely be back thank you you made mums birthday very memorable View menu

Obviously a very busy pub, disappointing as our choice of wine was not available and we were not offered an alternative at the same price. The fish option had sold out, could understand that if it was an evening booking, but we had a table reserved for 2pm. Had paid a deposit, no surprise to see we were given the bill for full amount. The food we had was good and the table staff professional, the lady who was front of house was under a lot of pressure but did not come over as being too concerned if we were happy or not. Would not go back

The Plough did our son and his wife proud on their wedding day last week. The team listened to their wishes and whether as a result of the pub's own work or the recommendations they made, the happy couple got exactly the relaxed garden party reception just as they wanted it. From a guest perspective, the garden was beautifully decorated and the pub itself was clean and welcoming, even down to the loos at the end of the night! Service throughout the day, whether in the garden or at the bar was excellent, well organised, unobtrusive and both professional and friendly. The food, while not your traditional wedding fayre was extremely tasty and of obvious quality I think everyone wants the recipe...

"I'll start with the positives. The interaction I had on Facebook to book a table, and then change the booking, was very positive. The two young waitresses who served us were great. The pub is shabby with rubbish and cigarette butts scattered outside the door...and a smell of smoke in the doorway. The décor is tired and tatty, and the bench seat in the restaurant area has a big split in it. The floor of the restaurant had bits of food and other rubbish on it. The salt and pepper and vinegar bottle didn't look like they'd been cleaned for a few days. The food was uninspiring, and mostly overcooked. The Yorkshire puddings were burnt black and were mostly inedible (when we commented on this, the waitress said she was too scared of the chef to say anything to him). The roast potatoes were hard and tough. The vegetables (not enough for 6 of us from one dish) were not great and the cauliflower cheese was the most uninspiring I've had for a long time. The lamb was OK, but that's all I can say about it. The whole menu (apart from a goat's cheese salad) was dull and unimaginative, even allowing for the fact that for Sunday lunch on Mother's Day most people want roasts. We didn't bother staying to have desserts. I thought from the TripAdvisor reviews that we were going to a gastropub, or a pub with a super restaurant. It was like having a meal in a pub 30 years ago, which is fine if that's what you want. It was a dreadful experience and not at all the way we wanted to celebrate my son's birthday and Mother's Day. We will not go back again."
