| Very large food-oriented pub with series of rooms and areas with varied stylish new decor. 3 McMullen's beers, good quality pub food and a waitress who couldn't have tried harder if she owned the place. Very close to the motorway, so an excellent alternative to service stations (see also Blackhorse Inn in Elton nr. Peterborough services). By 2PM on a Friday there wasn't an empty table in the place, so for food seems to be a huge success, but I wonder what the atmosphere's like in the evening. paul_ove_walldner - 10 Mar 2012 12:56 |
| Been in a couple of times since it reopened - have to say the refurb is fantastic, McMullens have done a really good job, it's like being in a 1920s ocean liner or a Poirot episode. Three real ales, unfortunately all McMullens and no guest ales, but kept well. It's been heaving each time I've been in (around 7pm midweek) so if you want to eat I would recommend booking. Going there this lunchtime for a family birthday so will report back on the food. graham2 - 13 Feb 2011 12:17 |
| Very nice. This public house has now been taken over by McMullen & Sons. I think this pub looks fantastic inside compared to its old drab look. Staff are friendly, quick and helpful. Food is good, it arrives fast and staff are only too happy to get condiments etc. Would strongly recommend. Watch out for weekends, the car park can get busy. localyokel1 - 8 Jan 2011 18:33 |
| OMG the pub has just undergone the most amazing re vamp. All the years of grot have gone. New garden and terrace area. All the car park area has been cleaned up, new grass, the work is amazing. There were about 20 vans and builders galore yesterday. It should finally be a pub worth shouting about. Most are a bit decrepid in BS. It should be opening VERY SOON. plomax - 25 Nov 2010 21:29 |
| The Nag’s Head is a very interesting building in the Art Deco style, and as such is listed both internally and externally. Unfortunately it has been struggling for many years, due mainly to lacklustre landlords and a non-interested pub owning company who were more interested in the value of the site it stood on as a building plot. It finally closed in November 2008 The pub owners initially made moves to sell the land for building, but were thwarted by the listing status of the building. Fortunately McMullens took a more enlightened view on the building, bought the freehold in April of this year. They are currently doing a major internal refurbishment, to bring the building back to close to its “as built” condition. I have not seen the works in hand, but McMullens are saying it will be a ‘breathtaking job’ when complete. They are hoping to open the pub during this summer. Seagoon - 10 Aug 2009 10:01 |
