user reviews of the Saracens Head, Southwell

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Had supper here recently and a couple of pints. Friendly staff; tasty food (but quite small portions) and the ales, although standard Greene King fare, were in good nick. The landlady at the B & B I was staying at said the place had been through a few changes of owners in recent years but the current ones are clearly investing in redecoration etc and consequently the place felt very comfortable and welcoming.

It's a Hotel bar but it does serve good beer. When we visited the clientel were mostly local (I assume) ladies that lunch.

So we thought it was a good place to have a quiet lunchtime drink in comfy, perhaps almost genteel, surroundings. (No jukebox, no slot machines, no drafty door constantly opening as smokers drag their addiction about)

Great place, well kept ales, two different bars. Stayed the night there and the staff kept their word that the bar would be open as late as we wanted. Rooms are decent, clean and comfy, and a cracking breakfast too.

Interesting old building also, with some period features retained in the bar areas. Supposedly Charles I spent his last night there as a free man, certainly not a bad choice!

Not bad. Used to be a bit smokey, but no smoking area now. Sometimes the beer is a bit funny. Don't know why!

Poshish bar of poshish hotel serving 2 or 3 real ales. Very popular and has some comfy couches.
