The Vale Pub - Gedling

Very poor choice for vegetarians. It is disappointing to see such a lack of acknowledgement that many people are vegetarian and vegan reflected in the menu. I would not recommend this pub if a member of your group does not eat meat, fish or poultry.

Love the Vale Carvery, especially the slow cooked beef. It is great value for money. The reason it has only 4 stars is the serving staff are so miserable, it would be such a different experience if the welcome was warmer and it was served with a smile. We are regulars because it is conveniently down the road. but I’m sure the surly service must put others off from coming back.

Avoid at all costs.We were looking for somewhere for Sunday lunch and this place was mentioned should have been suspicious when they had a table for 12 at such dhort notice.We all had the carvery at £12.50 meat was tough (chicken had blood on), stuffing balls had been cremated and the veg was literally swimming in water.The service (especially the bar) was shocking.At least 2 of us have already been sick so a call to environmental health tomorrow.Absolutely shocking

Attended a great Birthday Party, Buffet food tasty and fresh. Plentiful as well. I visit this place about once a month This place is 150 miles from home and always a great evening. I even feel like is my local.

The Vale used to be very popular for its carvery. Not now. The meat (2 different ones) was good, but the vegetables were left in water, for hours, so were soggy and over cooked. Yorkshire puddings (Aunt Bessie's) were rock hard. We thought we'd have a dessert, and chose profiteroles. Oh dear. Soggy, warmed up in the microwave. The filling had leaked out and was just a liquid. No chocolate sauce (profiteroles always have chocolate sauce on). The toilets of three cubicles, one was out of order, one had a broken lock, but all 3 had seats that were broken. Skidmarks and splashed of diarrhoea in the pan of one toilet. This place seems to have gone downhill. What a shame.
