This beautiful 15th century country pub stands opposite the splendid Grade I Listed Newstead Abbey and its glorious grounds in the very heart of ancient Sherwood Forest. Serving travellers on the King’s Highway from Nottingham to Mansfield since medieval times, The Hutt was built in 1400 on the site where King John’s ‘Royal Hutt’ had stood, housing the foresters who protected the King’s deer. By the 17th century it was a coaching inn and a welcome refuge for merchants to gather before braving the notorious Thieves Wood.
From its imposing stone archway to its low, exposed beams and private nooks and crannies, this atmospheric and historic inn offers a truly memorable experience for guests. After enjoying the history, grandeur and romance of Newstead Abbey, former home of romantic poet Lord Byron, visitors can savour the atmosphere and relax with a delicious Sunday lunch or a seasonal special from the extensive pub menu served at The Hutt.
Went there for Christmas Dinner. Confirmed the specific seats 6 weeks prior and again the day before only be told we were stuck in the back with no fire by the kitchen with nothing they could do about it despite us having confirmed twice that we were to be in the main toasty warm atmospheric main room. Service was rude and slow. When we stated our issue the staff were completely unapologetic and unbothered "computer say no". We asked for other fire to be put on, which they did and then let go out within 10 minutes. Food was nice even if we did have to see the chef come out and throw a strop and things about at the servers. Service slow (but it was a busy Christmas day that could of been overlooked if we were seated in the warm) drinks requests needed to be reminded. All in all kinda ruined Christmas day. Won't doing that again. Edit: amazing customer service to make up for this. Makes me think is was a blip rather than the norm. So edited my review
Had a lovely breakfast here. Highly recommend the full English! Food was high quality and cooked to perfection. Plenty of parking space, dog friendly and very clean. Will definitely be back 👌😁

First time visiting this was because there was a get together in the car park for 10th Anniversary of The Paintman This pub does not accept cash, card payment only This is to save the staff time woth regards to cashing up etc to spend more time serving. We ordered 2 meals for lunch Salmon, crushed potatoes, poached egg and Fried Halloumi Ciabatta with Fries and small side salad Both very nice and tasty, served with mayo which of course got to mix in mustard Ladies toilets was a bit slippery mentioned to staff who went to deal
This is a very nice location that I stumbled on. I was in the area and looking for a nice place for having a meal. I was attracted by the photos on Google maps... and I was not disappointed. Because the restaurant area was fully booked in advance the hostess, Lisa that was very helpful and nice, suggested to have a sit in the bar area and it was a very good suggestion. Although, she said that the only downside of the bar was the fact that there are no waiters and I will have to order at the bar, I did not feel like a very big difference because I had access at the same menu available as in the restaurant area, so after ordering at the bar and sat at the table. The starters came in good time and they were very good. We had Crispy Salt & Pepper Squid and Korean BBQ Chicken Strips, they were delicious. And after we finished the starters, although it was a busy evening, short time after the starters finish the staff brought the mains, we had Sea Bass & Seared Scallops and 28-Day-aged Prime Sirloin 8oz with Garlic & Mushroom Cream Sauce (V), again we were not disappointed they were delicious, the stake was perfectly cooked to the medium rare, as I requested, and the Sea Bass & Seared Scallops was delicious as far as I understood. I wood recommend this establishment to anyone that is in the area looking for a nice place to have a good meal, nice event or a meeting because far as I could see is a perfect location for any kind of event. Even if you don't have a reservation the hostess will offer the best sit available in the bar area and the atmosphere is perfect for a nice meal or even a meeting between a small party at the music is at the best volume to be heard and not interrupt any conversation that might happen. Also seams dog friendly as I saw a sign that said there were dogs ice-cream available on demand. All in all is a very good location, nice and friendly staff and good food.
