  “Went in with some colleagues while visiting the area for work. Easily got a table as walk-ins (19:15 on a weekday). Staff were friendly, and food was lovely. Two of us had butternut squash risotto, and the other had chicken fajitas. Nice atmosphere and in a good spot opposite the River Trent. Would definitely visit again.”

  “We ate lunch at Take a Gander at Burringham today for my wife's birthday. We were recommended to this lovely pub on the side of the River Trent near Scunthorpe and we were very pleased with the quality of the food and the ambience. Very good portion sizes and well cooked food. The staff were very welcoming and efficient. We also briefly met some locals who were sitting outside near the entrance. They greeted us very nicely and they were still there as we left and again spoke to us and asked about our visit. We stayed chatting for quite a while and it was like meeting up with old friends. Thanks Debs and John for making us feel so welcome. We will definitely be returning. A very enjoyable afternoon for us both.”

  “Booked for anniversary lunch and had been recommended to go. The starter was very nice but both ordered steak pie for mains which would have been very nice if had not been overcooked to the point where the pastry had a burnt bitter taste. Which the chef had said it was just the gravy that came out the top of the pie while cooking instead of just accepting he had burnt them. So unfortunately will not be returning”

  “Sunday lunch is amazing, we had the sirloin beef,Sunday roast, with all the trimmings . Then a lovely pudding, sticky toffee pudding,custard and ice cream. WOW,AMAZING. we took our dog in ,as they have a dog friendly area to sit, he had some treats and a bowl of water. All the staff where very friendly, and service was fantastic, even asking if the food was alright after our meal. Even our drinks were brought to us the place is well worth a visit .we will be going back to this pub again. Do special offers in the week on meals. Thank you so much 💓 you are a truly great host. June ,Jeff, and Leo,xxx”

  “Gina is a real joy. We booked a table but the people we were meeting there had a delay to their flight which meant we had to keep pushing our booking time later. Gina took it all in her stride! She was a real joy, calm and efficient and nothing was too much trouble. When we finally did eat, the food was fabulous and everyone really enjoyed their meals. Gina was the standout though - she really is a star ⭐️”

  “Definitely a unique pub, entry has a few sets of stairs and the main seating area has a warm rustic feel with a modern touch. The staff are incredibly friendly and very attentive. I had the fresh haddock and chips, the chips were delicious but the fish was a little greasy and not very flavourful. My companions had hunters chicken and the Goat burger and said they were delicious. I had a summer berry crumble and custard, it was scrumptious. I also tried a bite of the raspberry and white chocolate brownie and the classic Eaton mess, I can safely say the puddings are phenomenal. I will 100% be returning, not only to try more of the menu but to also have more pudding.”

  “Spent ages looking for a pub for Sunday Lunch near to where we were staying (a weekend away for Son's 21st). We hadn't booked as only found it that morning. Arrived at 12pm, four of us and a dog. They were almost fully booked but kindly found us a table. Three of us had a roast with a side of cauliflower cheese and one of us Haddock and chips. The food was incredible. The roasts were the best we have ever had in a pub! So so tasty and a perfect sized portion. We had desserts despite being full and they were out of this world too! The raspberry and white chocolate creme brulee was delicious. Staff were so friendly and attentive, offering treats and water straight away for Willow the Spaniel. Do not hesitate to try! We will definitely return when next in the area. Try and book on a Sunday as when we left the car park was rammed! Huge thanks for a delicious meal! 😋”

  “Take a gander is a dog friendly pub. The staff were all super friendly accommodating with drinks and food substitutes, they were all super chatty too. Food was great with large portions very tasty with a wide selection of vegetation and meat options available. I had the goat burger and it was very good! Cheesecake was great, and the brownie which I stole some, was even better. The cheesecake of the day was the double chocolate and the brownie of the day was millionaire. Food was a bit slow to come out and they did forget a lemonade but overall the experience was great and not too expensive even with 6 people.”

  “The lunch menu is excellent, with very reasonable prices and a fantastic range of set options. There are so many vegetarian choices too, which is really refreshing to see. Four of us dined today and were looked after by the lovely Gina and Emily, who were both incredibly friendly and attentive. We enjoyed it so much that we’ve already booked to return next month.”
