Manvers Arms - Doncaster

We were shown to our table promptly. Three adults and a toddler requiring a high chair. We ordered soft drinks which came quickly. We had to ask for a waitress to then come to take our food order after waiting 20 minutes. Our food then took over an hour to arrive, by which time our toddler was very unsettled and we were past being hungry. Waitress was friendly but clearly was inexperienced. Food itself was adequate. Chips were really nice. But the rest was just ok. I noticed another party return one of their meals. I'm not sure of the reason but it didn't surprise me. I have had several lovely meals at this pub in the past but my recent experience has made me question whether I would visit again.

Been coming here for years food bang on, staff lovely and friendly and they allow dogs which is a bonus

Lunch off spec. Many years since we last ate here but still the same traditional style pub inside. Needs updating a bit in places. We had garlic mushrooms. Delicious and filling. Hubby had a fair sized gammon,egg,pineapple chips and salad and said it was nice. I had sunday dinner on a weekday. Good portions, nice fresh veg, though meat, beef a bit chewy but tasty. Overall decent value. But please put the fire on! It was nippy. The other custs were sat in their coats. Hence stars reduced sorry.

Been coming for many many years, the last few times has been getting worse, last night topped it, ordered fish that had very little fish in and cooked to death, chips only warm, we’ve never complained but thought we should tell the staff to let the chef know, obviously for his future, when paid staff never said she’d told the chef so never got a sorry and never offer a little discount even though we would have insisted paying the full bill, pretty shocking really and will not go back, also no heating on and noticed people had there coats on

Awful experience today. Been lots and lots of times before and usually enjoyable. However, today was very uninviting, very cold and the food only just acceptable. Very disappointed, won't be returning for some time.
