The Courtyard - Carta

Excellent restaurant with good food and friendly staff. We had the Brie starter and then fish and it was really nice. Lots of choice for a three course meal, and I’m a fussy eater.

Great food, limited choice, however specials were offered and I had two courses from the specials as the main menu did not excite me, the food was delicious, well made and well presented. Food came quickly and staff were friendly and professional!

Had a meal here while staying in the hotel. Had booked in advance, just as well as they were full on Saturday night. Prompt service. Generous starters beetroot salad/ fishcake and tasty mains sea bream/ chicken tikka Had a particularly good wine Australian Chardonnay ? Ver carta

We sat in the old room which used to be the study. The only remaining room left of Clumber House. The chairs were comfortable. We had a drink and a light lunch. The service was good and Gareth with his friendly smile cleared our table and we had a chat. The restauant was clean and cosy.

Lovely place, full of character. Toilets immaculately clean. Pleasant helpful staff. We had a roast dinner with cream scones afterwards. I would describe the meal as average quite edible but not outstanding. The scones were very dry and not very fresh.At somewhat over £100 (for four people) we felt we had paid too much for the meal to be honest.

We normally enjoy eating in National Trust cafes but this one was disappointing. We went for lunch at 12.15 yet several items from the already limited menu were unavailable, including the dish that I had planned to order. As there was a big queue, I felt that I needed to choose an alternative quickly, so ended up with a very uninteresting ham salad sandwich. Ver carta

Coffee cake stop as soon as we arrived at Clumber Park. The staff were very friendly. Coffee good, cake stale. Returned back for lunch and ordered the jacket potato options unfortunately, had to return both as were under cooked. Second jackets were slightly softer. Portion sizes of the salad leaves coleslaw were small. Prefer to bring a picnic next time. Suggestion: include dietary options on the menu instead of having to ask at the counter, then have to wait for the staff to check the folder!

We regularly go biking with our little boy. We park outside Clumber then cycle in and around the park then stop at the cafe for a treat before heading home. It’s fine for our needs but I wouldn’t make a trip out to go there especially. It’s very busy and the tables outside are often all taken but as we have our bikes we sit on the grass or a bench further up from the cafe. The cakes and scones can be a little dry, the staff are generally friendly but don’t go out their way to make your visit nice. The ice-creams are yummy and it’s clean inside to say how busy it gets. Overall, I’d say it’s fine for a coffee and (somewhat dry) cake if your out walking or biking (which is amazing, the scenery...

This is the second time I have eaten here on the weekend. I go here because it is right next to the walled garden which is a really nice walk out and they sell interesting herbs. I never order mains, just coffee and something sweet, normally with a few people. The food here from a scone and cake perspective is okay,sometimes the cakes/scones are a bit dry. I am told the cheese scones are more than good which I will try next time for sure. The service on the weekends (the only time I have been) is dire. Firstly you order, for some reason whatever gets ordered at the front till doesn't transition into the kitchen correctly. Whatever i order, it will not come out correctly, such as jam and crea...
