Reviews of Old Grey Mare

Staff were very friendly as always. Ordered a challenge meal, however it definitely ended up being quantity over quality. It was to be expected to be fair as the price was very reasonable but I would not order this meal again. The fried chicken was beyond dry and the texture of the skewered chicken was like jelly. The fries were okay but the corn was very watery and overall everything lacked in flavour. I have had some nice meals over the years but would not recommended this specific challenge.

I’m not really one to write reviews, I stayed here as I was visiting a friend in uni.
The rooms where nice, a lot of people say they are outdated but I personally didn’t really see that as an issue, In my opinion as long as the room is clean and tidy it doesn’t really matter what it looks like. However, I struggled to figure out the shower which is my own fault but maybe some instructions in the room would be helpful? Also, the bathroom taps where really difficult to turn off and sometimes wouldn’t completely turn off. Apart from that, I am honestly so impressed with the waiters manners, I don’t live in Yorkshire and I’ve never received such good customer care, and I’m so impressed. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful and I have nothing bad to say about the food, price, or staff what so ever.

Heartily recommended!

Eaten twice with family on the new menus in the past month the Sunday lunch was the best I have had this year I could not fault anything so I went back today and had the double dipped rib-eye and I have to say I don’t eat steak much but this is one of the best steaks I have ever eaten and again nothing could faulted
P. T.
Called in for food on a Friday teatime.
There were a lot of diners already in but we had no trouble finding a suitable table.
Staff were polite and not in a rush to take our order. The portion size was just right, and we thoroughly enjoyed the meals we had.
The pub has a spacious, welcoming and friendly atmosphere. With contemporary bright decor accented with photos of 'Old Hull'.
Car parking to the rear does seem a little restricted for the size of the place, but saying that we did get parked ok.
We will definitely be visiting again.
M. W.
Amazing pub, I've been going for years the food is always fantastic and the staff are brilliant. If I could just make one suggestion though, I tried the triple stack last week and due to the steak being flattened I was informed it had to be cooked well done when it was brought to my table, this could maybe done to be advised on the menu as like most people I like my steak rare and it was difficult to eat 3x 12oz steaks as it was a little tough. Other then that amazing as always :)
S. P.
Called in for lunch this afternoon was very impressed with the food and service. The food arrived quickly and our waitress Molly never stopped.
R. S.
First time in there Took my Stepson and his girlfriend with my wife and Mother in Law The meal was fantastic Won't be the last time that'll we will be going in there. That's the reason I gave it 5 Stars the other day.

Great price for a stay over at the end of November 2019. It is located minutes away from the University Of Hulls’ Canham Turner Hall. We West to a wedding reception in the hall, so this was perfect!! The room was clean, breakfast was excellent and all the staff very friendly.
P. D.
Liked it! Had a lovely clean, comfortable and compact room. Slightly dated, and basic but then the room wasn't expensive.
Situated above a big pub restaurants, with a large car park. I slept well, but please note it's not central to the city good few miles out.
P. J.
Great went last night with hubby for a meal very good prices .
A. C.
Excellent experience at the Old Grey Mare. Very helpful management and staff, going the extra mile to make sure our overnight stay for our sons wedding went smoothly. Rooms shone, floors you could see your face in. Crisp white bedlinen and towels. Full English breakfast, teas and coffee served swiftly. And if we were here longer I'm sure we could enjoy your very very reasonably priced day menu.
C. J.
Stopped here for lunch on Christmas eve lunchtime. Food was good. Service was good. Prices were very reasonable.

Stayed for 1 night , TV lost signal on all channels.... OK for a place to rest your head .. good pub food
M. P.
Very nice food and friendly staff will definitely be going again
d. n.
Nice pub and hotel brill for uni Green king prices
P. G.
It's ok and I think it has been refurbished
Plenty of people in there on a Saturday night
I am guessing it's my age but every time I go into a pub lately.....which has not been often especially over the last year and a half or so. I just can't believe the prices for beer
I tried a new on I have not heard of as I like my ales
Green King Icebreaker ale
£4.70
I can go around the corner and get 3 660 ml beers from Tesco for £5
Pubs are on the decline of course
I know they have overheads and it's nice to socialise but I know I for one will go less and less as it's just too expensive...
S.
Very cheap for a big meal , challenge yourself or have a nice dinner with family lots of events. Amazing place all in all and o came all the way from derby for that :)
P. D.
Amazing value. Good food and a clean room. Can’t go wrong!
Edit: as regular quiz goers the pub quiz last night was the best we’ve done. Fully interactive on the iPad and lots of bonus rounds which are also good if you lack quiz knowledge!
H. H.
Really nice, food was cooked lovely and staff were nice and friendly.
H. W.
Love this place for its food, big selection of pub food and they even have proper coke.
The burgers with waffle fries are definitely my go too. Taste great and at a really good price.
K. H.
Food was lovely,shame about the staff member called Sarah.
T. D.

Good place to chill with friends. There is a pool table and TVs. Drinks are okay price.
S. D.
Pleasant staff and reasonable priced bar food. Accommodation requires updating.
R. A.
Always good food love this place
T. C.
Stayed overnight with my daughter. We come here several times a year and are not disappointed. The room was clean and well stocked, the evening meal was nice and they had gluten free bread for breakfast. Pete was cheerful at breakfast as always and most staff were really friendly. The evening waiter was a bit stressed, but it was full and very busy. Another great experience, and it all started 7 years ago when my daughter first went to the uni.
J. W.
Comfortable and nice food, great staff, I often meet up with my family for lunch.
W. D.
Nice food, friendly service and reasonable priced. Try the meat pie, it's delicious !
P. M.
Came in about 3.00pm three people had one vegan meal and two from set menu two meals for£ 9.99 food excellent very tasty staff very friendly and welcoming would recommend
R. D.
My visit to the hotel was very enjoyable. The staff were extremely friendly and informative around the safety precautions they have in place. The food was hot and flavoursome and came quickly, we had skewers and the hot sauce. Great location and set ice, definitely will return.
Y. F.
Good food. Staff very helpful .
B. B.
Stayed here for two nights on Friday and Saturday convenient location for Hull and surrounding area rooms are a bit tired but OK for price but word of warning if you want an early night at the weekend this is NOT the place for you there was an Elton John tribute on the Friday he could have been in the room as he was directly beneath the rooms until he finished at 11 30 then you could hear music untill about 12 30
v. b.
Cheap and cheerful, but slow service st lunch and toilets were gross!!
j. e. r.
So, the pub has a relaxing atmosphere and you will never miss a good beer. I recommend the ales. The staff is nice. At the breakfast, I missed some fruit or fresh vegetables, but the full English breakfast was very good anyway. The rooms were quiet and cozy, I would remove that horrible moquette and renew the bathroom... A choice for one or two days.
B. S.
Good food reasonable priced drinks been twice so far liked the atmosphere friendly staff
S. g.
Spot on food the staff are friendly love this place..
S. G.
Me and my children have been here twice in the last 2 weeks, amazing fast service each time! Staff go above and beyond, my little boy is sight impaired and has 'melt downs' due to sensory issues the guy behind the bar (beard with glasses sorry I never caught your name) was fantastic with him he spoke to him to distract him and even made him his own visor! Thank you very much!! P.s the food was beaut too 🥰
A. H.
Loved staying here. Our room was comfortable, breakfast was excellent and staff were friendly and helpful. This isn't a top-notch hotel but for the money it's very good value and we'd definitely stay there again.
G. T.
We had a cracking night in the Old Grey Mare, probably the best pub quiz I've ever been to. Food was decent aswell.
S. O.
Nice food,service was okay. Giselle the girl behind the bar needs to be given a lesson on using her in side voice and to stop been such a jobs worth totally ruined the atmosphere shouting about her deceased family members across the restraunt. Even as I write this review she continues to be the over riding voice in the place. Other then that not a bad place
S. C.
Home from home !! Down to earth good standard of accommodation and excellent position to nearby highways , plus great secure parking included in price of stay. The atmosphere is traditional and semi modern rustic , with a good array of TV screens situated around the venue for the sport and football follower. The staff are very friendly and helpful and are quick to supply you with a good quality meal or drink at a reasonable price . There are offers on a daily basis for special meal deals and all meals really are good on price , but portions are really large so check out the sizes first as you may want to share with a partner or friend. This is a good place to dine on a budget with friends or family members , I suggest if you eat after 6.30 at weekends to maybe book a big table as Saturday nights are very popular with locals . Highly recommended.
S. D.
Very nice food and friendly staff
J. G.
Very nice crew. Clean facilities and rooms. Good breakfast. Came back here second time next day.
V. G.
I hadn't been here for years. If you like value through quantity this is the place for you. My companion did the chicken challenge and couldn't finish it. I don't think you won anything except self respect? Lol. Good value pub food. I would go again.
K. A.
Good beer, friendly staff and naughty food 😉 had the fried potato skins, very tasty
C. W.
Staff are lovely and engage with people when they can and it calls for it, one time they joined us in the humour of a friend attempting the ice cream challenge, the most recent time the bartender experimented with drinks with me. They do amazing very tasty food with an enormous menu that I always want more than one thing from. One thing is I wish they had more than one pool table on that top part.
W. G.
Stayed for 1 night for a mates stag party in Hull. Cheap and cheerful. Rooms are standard. Nothing spectacular but for the price is well worth it if you're just looking for a bed for the night. Friendly and helpful staff. Easy access to city centre via buses and taxis. Decent breakfast which was included in the price of the room.
V. A.
Nice friendly and helpful staff, meal arrives no probs at all. Very tasty. And they accept Blue Light card which was a bonus.
T. H.
Lovely place, friendly staff, can get a bit busy, but otherwise very nice.
J. R.
As a pub directly across from the university the staff are friendly, love to have a quick conversation where possible and the food overall can often be to some of the best standards. While our most recent experience hasn't been perfect (the chips were rather well done and the cashier didn't provide change where they should have) it's difficult to fault the staff and service you are given.
J. G.
The steaks are sheer heaven cooked to perfection xx
Keep up the good work xx
L. G.
Gorgeous food, wasn't waiting long even though pub was quite busy
K. O.
Now this pub is very very good. Good value food. Great for parties. And plenty of sport on if you just want a lads night. I would recommend old gry mare for a good night. The food is excellent. Give it a go. Across the road from Hull University on Cottingham Road Hull.
j. b.
For the price this hotel is great. Really clean, comfy beds and impressed the tea/coffee in the room is Twinings & Kenco. I hate Nescafe. Handy to have a bar & restaurant downstairs.
J. W.
This is a large pub with a good choice of seat areas. Some comfy alcoves with sofas, normal tables and a lovely outdoor area round the back.
Service and food is good, good menu choices from light snacks, wraps, burgers and full meals. Portions are not huge but are adequate. Service is friendly and reasonably quick unless really busy.
I have only been here on a lunch time so can't comment on night times.
Would recommend to anyone for a lunch out.
D. S.
This was my old favorite place to eat as a student. They had great food for a great price and affordable drinks too. Shortly later they got a health inspection and that didn't go great. Must have fired the kitchen staff because they began to burn 90% of the beef after that. I guess it's 'flame grilled' but still, I want to taste meat not carbon. If your just after a bit of food and a cheap boose up as a student and can't be bothered walking to gardeners then this a great spot.
G. H.
Reasonable food at a reasonable price in a large-ish pub setting with ample seating. Good for students in Hull as it's right opposite the uni. If you want fine dining then it's a no, but cheapish edible food in a pub setting then yes. Some big TVs to with sports shown if you want that too.
F. H.
Excellent food. Great value. Love Flaming Grill pubs but this was exceptional even though very busy with Christmas parties. Service was quick and the staff very polite and friendly. Would highly recommend.
L. J.
Went here on 2nd October was quite busy but got served fairly quickly. Food was good and hot, deserts lovely
M. C.
Came to bring my daughter to uni interview. Accomadation clean staff very friendly. Breakfast great. Daughter enjoyed her veggie breakfast. Pub food good in evening. Will be staying again to visit daughter when she starts uni.
C. W.
Excellent. Staff looked after us well. X
J. G.
Took my family for lunch yesterday. Lovely and clean. Inside looked amazing. Staff friendly. We all had different meals which were amazing. Good vibe, great food. Great value for money.Will definitely be going back. 4 happy customers.
S. L.
Good stay especially for one or two nights but I wouldn't recommend for more than that unless it was to just sleep. Lovely little room, with a double bed although I was only given one pillow got start with and spent ages finding the other one. The rooms are nice but slightly small so would only be a good place to stay if you were planning on being out a lot. The lamp in my room unfortunately didn't work and it was already quite late until I found out so wasn't able to go to reception. The bathroom on the other hand was lovely and I really enjoyed the bath. I made use of the free tea although would have liked the option of bottled water. The food downstairs was lovely, I attempted the burger challenge and it was lovely although I wasn't able to finish it. Fair price.
M. C.
Friendly staff, reasonable prices and always lots of offers on for food within weekdays 💪 definitely recommended
H. B.
A great pub directly opposite the university. Food is cheap and of good quality especially as they have different offers depending on the day of the week. Staff have always been helpful and friendly and they have updated their menu, offering traditional pub food as well as different options!
G. M.
Great place to stop, clean rooms, and nice friendly atmosphere.
K. W.
Lovely pub. Popular place to eat for people of all ages. Families and groups are welcome of all sizes. Very rare to find a place of this size that also has a cosy feel to it. The menu is typical of what you'd find in a pub but better quality than most places you will find and very affordable.
L. H.
It's a great place to socialise prices are good food is good staff are brilliant I would 100 percent to let people know pub is great hull greymare on cottingham road
P. B.
The food is brilliant nd try atmosphere is awesome! However one down point... The beer / ale on tap just always seems to be off. It's just horrible - its a shame because everything else is really good about this pub! If you are going for on-tap beverages, I'd give it a skip =/
B. B.
Great value for money - decent rooms and good food. What really makes this place is the staff though - what a great team! Warm front-desk check in, great service for evening meals (which were scrummy). Particularly well looked after by Pete at breakfasts too - what a star, always chirpy and made sure everything was just right. Thanks go to all for another lovely stay.
A. R.
Decent pub food. Convenient for when we visit our son at uni
F. M.
Great cozy atmosphere, with good food at great prices. A must is their quiz night!

T. G.
Super grub. Fantastic steaks.
S. S.
Really good food and drinks. The service was friendly and efficient. The Covid measures were the best I have seen and implemented so well by the staff while remaining chat and friendly.
Excellent !
D. G.
The staff were helpful and friendly, the room was spacious clean and very nice, we ate downstairs in the bar and food was very good and very reasonably priced. My only complaint would be the distance to the room..a labrynth of stairs doors and corridors but apart from that it was excellent.
D. B.
Visited for lunch. The place was very busy with only 2 bar staff but they did a great job, sometimes serving 2 people at once. Very friendly and the food was well cooked and presented.
M. D.
Old Grey Mare is a standard chain pub which serves food. The menu isn't very varied, it seems to have gotten smaller recently.
I have had some nice food in the past, but the last three times have disappointed. Possibly due to been short staffed, the chef did come to the bar to say he had too much food ready and they needed more help getting it out, but we have had issues with meat still being cold in the centre on two visits.
They have good options on the steaks with sides and sauces and a choice of cuts.
Just hoping they resolve the recent issues and get back to how they used to be
S. R.
Food was excellent, a little mix up with the order but swiftly corrected. Very good value for money and top notch service. I very much recommend the chicken wings!
M. H.
Great food served here and friendly staff.
J. E.
Good food, freshly cooked, friendly staff
J. T.
Never fails to deliver the mixed grills are good quality there is sometimes quite a wait when busy could do with a few more staff on the bar. Very popular across lunchtime with students from the university. Limited parking at the front and rear of the premises.
M. S.
Nice comfortable place to eat and drink. Great food A++
S. I.
Probably the best best pub in hull for steak and food would advise anyone to eat there as its staff are very friendly and helpful
R. H.
Great place for food and drink with your friends and family!!
J. D.
Very mediocre food. They have a blanket "cook it medium" policy which is abysmal for a chain which is supposed to be all about the meat. The food is often dry, it's very expensive and they have a very poor selection of overpriced drinks to wash the dry meat down with.
It seems like whenever we go they have a very long, very loud and pretty dull pub quiz, which makes talking very difficult (there is no area in the whole pub without the speakers for people who don't want to take part).
Having said that, it's edible food, and at least they rarely have enough patrons to make much of a queue at the bar.
A. S.
Very good can't fault the place food very good and room good
g. w.
Brilliant food friendly staff well organised wouldn't think twice about going back
B. T.
Ordered the Apocalypse cow burger, was absolutely beautiful and I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a big meal after a long day and only have a £10 note to hand. Did eat the whole thing within 40 minutes but no mention of the wall of flame so I'm assuming that has to be mentioned in advance of ordering if you want to take on the challenge.
J. D.
I ordered lasagne and salad. The salad was ruined by the dressing which had so much chilli in it, that it burnt my mouth.
Ruined my meal.
Very long wait at the bar.
Pub quiz was loud - too loud.
Conversation died.
Very poor night out.
L. S.
Good location, comfortable room. Handy having food and drink on site when you've been out all day. Rooms could do with a make-over, and some light bulbs need replacing. The quality of the food was good, and staff were friendly and accommodating.
W. R.
Our go pub for eating out when we fancy something nice, quick and reasonably priced. Nice quality and nice pub all around. Plenty of tv's also and a good little family area. Ok parking area front and rear and a nice tidy beer garden. Can't go wrong for what we like.
L. F.
Great position right across
the road from Hull uni. Very friendly staff. Comfortable accommodation.
J. M.
Good food and fast service, cheap drinks too.
e. l.
Love this shop. Good selection of goods and many special offers. They sell fresh vegetables,meats etc. as well as cakes and bread. You can even buy a TV or garden plants if needed. Staff are friendly and helpful too. Co - op also has an ajoyning Peacocks stir which sells lots of cloths, shoes ect.
J. F. (.
The pub itself is lovely, the staff are great, the food was OK, my pie was slightly overcooked but not a huge issue, I would return, I'm putting it down to an off day.
H. C.
Service was excellent, food was amazing, apart from the staff telling us to sit down while talking(it was a funeral wake) everything was good.
P. W.
Good food if you fancy a girl, you have to pay for parking but get it back when you order your food.
The parking charge is to stop people parking up for the day, It got that bad customers couldn't get parked, so don't blame them.
C. E.
Lovely carvery & mixed grill
R. H.
Ridiculously short staffed behind the bar.. and the 2 bar staff worked at an embarrassingly slow rate!! Food was okay and waitress was very efficient and friendly.. albeit she seemed to be doing everything. Wont go again. Sorry.
J. G.
Amazing quiz night with amazing customers 💗
a. t.
A very sociable place, lots of capacity so no difficulty finding a table, it has a varied and reasonably priced menu so all in all a good place to call in for a meal and a drink, the only drawback was the fat little barman with the beard, he needs re training in how to deal with staff, you do not shout at bar staff in front of the customers, if they have done something that is not to your liking the correct thing to do is to take them to one side and have a quiet word not shout loudly at them in front of clients, the young girl was clearly shaken by the experience, apart from this it was an excellent night out.
J. S.
Service shocking, Team Leader or Shift Manager was shocking, only 1 barman serving and he was rude/short tampered to quite a few customers including my partner. Food was good just shoddy customer service. Thanks
D. H.
Very busy last night ,only 3 staff on .The Queue for the bar was very long. All the staff were working very hard and coped very well and with a smile.on their faces. Food was good.
J. M.
The staff were warm and welcoming. They were following strict covid guidelines. The food was as expected; cheap and cheerful.

Excellent food that arrives pretty quickly, and friendly staff too, been a few times now when we take our daughter there who's at hull university at the moment, good food at very good prices
A. B.
First time I've been in a while and I must say it has improved ( food ) menus is great lots of choices and challenges , pub it's self is nice TV's showing the foot ball , fruit machine's and pool table . Car park also
L. H.
Had lovely meal for my birthday. Party of us, good food, quite busy, nice cheerful staff. Had a good night. Big pub and good atmosphere.
J. G.
To be fair it was around the festive season and busy so may not be a true representation of what it's usually like. The food was ok but the service was very slow.
J. H.
Great selection of tasty fresh cooked meats n veggies staff n manager polite n very helpful great meals n desserts for value drinks reasonable n waitress n waiters quick unless high volume of ppl eating very large pub n toilets clean witch to me is a bonus.
p. t.
This pub is some were my family often come for a bite to eat. The food is good and the service friendly. As it's a chain you pay for what you get and here you get loads. Good value for money.
N. B.
Only come here as pub but nice surroundings and staff are friendly prices are like anywhere these days could always be cheaper. Menu's changed loved the fire extinguisher hot wings but aim to try the challenges.
A. B.
Compared to the summit Inn (same group) the food was substanard and the portions are far less. Parking was not very good, however inside was pleasent and clean.
R. A.
Nice place. Gets quite full. Has Sky TV and sport can be seen here. The beer I buy is reasonable on price even though there are dearer lagers too.
B. M.
Nice place, lovely rooms great breakfast

Service was ok with polite staff, though some of the food wasn't great...had fish and chips and the fish was very overcooked, daughters had burgers which were ok and friend had Sunday dinner which she said was ok.
A. H.
Great staff, great atmosphere, good prices for food and drinks. I would definitely recommend to friends and family!
T. J.
Went boxing day Food and service spot on
M. C.
Ordered food. Came less then 10 mins later nice and hot no complaints. Paid for parking and get the refund after you leave the place. Went to get my refund and was told i cant have it because i paid for food before i ate and not paid after.. got my refund after waiting 10mins
A. H.
Lovely, clean room with everything we needed. Staff very friendly and helpful. The room wasn't luxurious but best we've stayed in for that price.
M. M.
Great food, great atmosphere, sometimes short staffed, the staff deserve more credit for the work they do and what they out up with
A. C.
Fantastic food and friendly staff
C. C.
The food is always good but service at the bar is not always up to the size of the pub and the number of people who use it.
C. A.

We had used the Whistling Goose last week and had a very bad experience there but the Old Grey mare has just restored our faith in the Greene King sizzling grille pubs, very helpful staff who knew what they where doing and the food was served quickly and was cooked exactly how we had asked.

The Old Grey Mare is a flaming grill pub with a good night's Inn attached. It consists of a number of rooms above the pub. There lies the problem. The rooms are comfortable enough if a bit dated, but it is very noisy till the pub closes about midnight. No chance of an early night. However the pub itself served good food and is reasonably priced. It's well located especially for Hull University which is across the road.
R. D.
Clean and tidy. Beds were a bit too soft for me.
b. h.
