The Ruddington Arms

Really lovely Sunday dinner with friends and the staff were really friendly as ever, very impressed we are lucky to have this on our doorstop

Booked in short notice but were accomodating, Great food, attentive staff and good atmosphere made for a very enjoyable Sunday lunch. Always looking forward to returning

Lovely food and smiley service, another superb meal. Sunday roast with all the trimmings, marbles beef and Yorkshire pudding and a homemade horseradish sauce. Lovely!

The Food, Staff and atmosphia at the Ruddington Arms is great. If you are looking for a nice experience then please visit. looking forward to our next visit

Service was poor tonight. Long wait for food and over cooked. Starter very good and this is not the norm and is usually very good. Nice atmosphere

The food was satisfactory but the wait for both the main and desert courses was excessive, even for a Sunday. The accompanying portions of vegetables were little more than garnishes.

Excellent food and great staff that were very helpful and attentive. We arrived early so sat in the bar and had some nice drinks. Times between courses were just right and nothing was rushed or too slow. Most enjoyable evening. We will definitely be returning.

Excellent food and service, though a bit expensive, will go again. The pub was clean and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a very pleasant afternoon.

We had a lovely, relaxed breakfast and chat. We both had buttermilk pancakes with berries, maple syrup and clotted cream. Delicious. Staff were helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Beautiful food, friendly helpful staff and a chilled atmosphere. Highly recommended

Great food, lovely surroundings. Nice quirky ways of presentation. Great value for money. Staff are excellent...friendly and helpful. This was our 4th visit and will definitely visit again.

We love the Ruddington Arms, varied interesting menu, friendly relaxed smart service and beautifully cooked and presented food. The toilets are clean and have the loveliest smelling hand soap and lotion.

Wonderful food. Enjoyed every course. Good food, well presented and at an excellent price. Would certainly recommend and looking forward to our next visit which will be soon.

The food was delicious and the staff were very attentive, Asked for water twice for the table but never came, other than this everything was fine

One of the worst meals I've ever had. Steak was burnt, mushroom the same. Duck egg for start was raw. The only plys point was desert

All my customers and friends absolutely love the RA. The soufflé tonight was as usual fabulous and the staff very special. Keep it up please😀 Peter (thelodgeatruddington)

Thanks to Grant, Lana and all the team for a super evening made especially enjoyable by their excellent service. Thanks chef for the crab soufflé an indulgent but stubby starter. 😊

Food absolutely excellent, made my little granddaughter very welcome and altogether a lovely Iunch. It did however take quite a long time to get our meal ordered and it was also quite a long time between ordering and the meal arriving. Nevertheless it is always worth waiting for .

First class service and 5* food. A very good evening meal served by very friendly staff. The menu is suitable for all occasions and a good selection of cask ales.

The pub is a lovely place although the chairs we sat in were a bit uncomfortable but not a massive deal. We ordered two burgers and two Sunday roast. The burgers were delicious as well as the chips. Unfortunately the beef roast was not very nice. The beef it's self was very fatty and we hardly ate any of it. We were disappointed the cut wasn't a bit nicer. Everything else on the plate was lovely. Overall the experience was mixed, some great points and some low points.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Pleasant and well-decorated surroundings. Very good wine list, too. We like the fact that there is no loud background music. Online booking was straightforward.

The food is delicious and cooked very well. The staff are very attentive but leave you to enjoy your meal. The atmosphere is very lively if you go early evening which makes it feel like you have had a proper evening out!

I really enjoy the Ruddington, the food is good, the wines exciting and service is friendly. So as a family it works for us. But also enjoyed a meal for two which worked well too.

Hit and miss. Room booked for two people and only set up for one. Tea and coffee not replenished during the room cleaning. No hot water and no apology when we mentioned it. One of the staff was v helpful and smiley fetching umbrellas and checking us in. Bit of a blank faced manager tho. Wouldn't rush back.

Welcoming, friendly, efficient staff. Enjoyable and well-executed food. The choice of sandwiches excellent for a working lunch. Very happy with choice of drinks. Well done!

Even though the restaurant was really busy service was quick and the food was excellent as always. We weren't hurried to leave the table will definitely be going back.

Can not fault this place, food was again first class and fairly priced. The salmon in a red Thai sauce with rice was perfectly spiced, the rib eye was succulent although a little small. Cheese soufflé starter was very tasty and quite filling. Great sticky toffee pudding and creme brûlée to finish the meal off . Staff were friendly and service was good, we left very happy and will be visiting again very shortly.

Excellent food, service and surroundings. Great attention to detail and presentation. Great for family's we will definitely visit again! Meat and cheese sharing starter platter was excellent and as was the sharing rib of beef, we had different deserts and all excellent. Great choice of real ales and craft ciders. The pimms was a great choice by me

Had nice meal with friends. Would certainly visit again. Will just mention that we sat for quite a while at the outset waiting for drinks and for our order to be taken.

Thr Ruddington Arms has a great atmosphere, excellent food and attentive and efficient staff. It can be busy at the weekends. The menu is varied and interesting. I enjoyed crispy fried squid on a base of lettuce and pieces of fettle (cheese) on a sweet chillie sauce, followed by a succulent rack of lamb. The furnishings are an eclectic mix of old style furnishings which works very well

When we arrived the staff were warm and friendly. We were shown to our table where we had a Fantastic meal. The food was very tasty and the staff and service was great

Very flavoursome food, well cooked and presented. We were a party of four had four starters, four mains, two puddings, four coffees , a bottle of wine and two beers. The bill was just under £30 a head which was great value for money. The service was efficient, friendly, and unobtrusive. Will be back.

An excellent evening! Great place, great food, great staff, great wine, lovely welcoming atmosphere - who could ask for more! Looking forward to the next visit already!!

Fantastic Sunday roast for 2 and a children's meal better than I any I've ever purchased! Lovely attentive staff, Just perfect! Can't wait to return.

We had a very lovely Sunday Lunch, the food was fabulous. The restaurant and bar has a lovely atmosphere and decent wine too! Can't fault it

Good food and a nice atmosphere. One of the staff waiting on was most unfriendly and gave the appearance she couldn't be bothered and didn't speak as we left.

an extremely comfortable setting, excellent service, varied menu offering lots of choice, the food we ordered arrived in good time and was delicious. Look forward to visiting again in the future.

All three of us enjoyed our lunch and were impressed with the ambience and staff. The quality of the food was excellent and the waiters helpful and good fun. Thank you.

Very good service, the time between courses was perfect. The host was very good too. The food was absolutely superb. We will most certainly be coming back.

Great roast beef dinner and one of the best sticky toffee pudding we have ever tasted. We will definitely be back soon! Very much recommended
