SAW THE PUB IN THE LOCAL FREE PAPER AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE GOOD TO TRY. easy to find with good car park. typical rural pub with local regulars. went for sunday lunch (carvery) was seated in dining room and called up to carvery, choice of 5 meats plenty veg roasties and yorkshire puds. server was not shy with meat portions and was very friendly, nothing too much trouble, as much veg as you wanted. personally i prefer a thicker gravy but tasty all the same. pudding menu was great however i was too full to try. carvery was under £10. fantastic value. was so good i went again a couple of weeks later. midweek food menu looks good at good prices, will be trying soon. smallest of niggles even though the pub wasnt full it was hard to get too the bar, regulars are the backbone of a pub but none regular trade should be encouraged, this doesnt mean we were not welcome though, just less priority. well recommended to all.

excellent carvery in a lovely pub

Really nice pub with dog friendly accommodation. Has a super atmosphere. Food was really good and an extremely helpful landlord/chef who was preared to provide breakfast (porridge0 which was not on the menu and allow my wife to remain in the room later than normal to allow me time to return following a half marathon race.

dog friendly place with extremely friendly and helpful staff

For some reason my reviews didn’t post which is a great shame, as this place is lovely and at that time run by the loveliest of people. We visited due to a bereavement and they were understating and decent. Goes a long way and I trust they are all well and business is good.

Great stay with my thanks

Really nice local pub.  Good sized portions and dog friendly.  They serve Madri which we like.  Recommend the Sunday carvery or any evening for food.  My favourite is the Belly Pork and puddings. The pies are good and what really makes the place special is the great and welcoming staff.  Fave pub. 

Nice local pub

The River Don Tavern is a nice pub and restaurant and the food was excellent with good service, however the room I stayed in had been used prior by a person who smoked and I suspect had used the bathroom to do so in the hope of using the extractor to remove the stench, my first night was spoiled by the smell of stale tobacco smoke permuting around the room . I informed the staff during breakfast the following morning and was assured they would clean freshen and then leave an air freshener in the room. My second night was again spoiled, no air freshener and no apology. I should not have to ask again for the room to be fully cleaned and the smell removed.  

Room with an smoke smell

We stayed in the lodge which was very good. A nice clean large room with an ensuite shower and loo. The bed was so comfortable. Breakfast was excellent too, the chef couldn't have been more obliging and helpful. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area.

Excellent

Good pub. Good food. Lovely staff. My room was small, but had everything you'd need when working away. En-suite. WiFi. Tele with Freeview. Clean. Tea/coffee kettle, fresh milk. Use of fridge and microwave. Good price too!

Can't fault it.

Great location and quiet 
We took our dog and he was catered for brilliantly 
Mega thanks

Brilliant

This village pub sits on the Isle of Axholme - on a road that was the River Don until it was diverted by a drainage expert four centuries ago.
Not a tousist spot but the fenlike flat fields and network of drains between the rivers Ouse and Trent is fascinating. 
Comfortable,  clean room, excellent breakfast and good pub grub food.
Landlord was friendly and helpful, as were the staff. I would certainly return if I am ever nearby.

FASCINATING and friendly

Stayed here on Friday 17th December. We were meeting family to exchange Christmas gifts. The room was very clean and comfortable. The pub is a typical country village pub very old and welcoming..We ordered an evening meal which was excellent and served with a smile. The meals are very reasonably priced too.The landlord cooked us a full English breakfast in the morning which again was excellent..The staff were really friendly. We will definitely be going back.
