The Ruddington Arms

The meal was nice but not excellent so therefore slightly overpriced. What spoilt the experience was the feeling of eating in a crèche. Too many families who thought it was ok to allow kids to run around (kids of an age that should know how to behave) . Some were even in the restaurant in wheelies. Sorry. Won't rush back.

Nice family pub, food excellent! We had the burger which was really good, chips were cooked well. Beer battered fish was also very good. Will come here again :)

Disappointed that on a Saturday night at 19:45 that the 8oz ribeye was not available but the food we did have was very good.

Fantastic food. Great service. My friends and I had a lovely time there and will definitely be going back to eat there again very soon.

Another excellent Sunday lunch this time in the garden enjoying the spring heatwave! Tom the duty manager as professional as ever and the new fine wine list is a great addition to the wide selection of wines already available, try Chocolate Block a wine to be savoured at length with good food and in good company.

Great food, service and atmosphere ..... again. This is our go to restaurant for everyday and special occasions. The food is consistently good and the staff efficient and friendly.

Couldn't fault any of it. Food and drinks spot on, lovely atmosphere. We had a really good time. Thank you to everyone! Hope to be back soon!

Visited with a friend for my birthday the food was great and good service, a little pricey for a normal night out but nice for an occasion.

Excellent dining experience ! Calm ,friendly, helpful staff with lots of space between tables . Food outstanding for all 4 diners. The highlights were Baked Alaska, Souffle and steaks .

Excellent food, good service and a friendly waitress to complete the experience. It is one of those rare pub restaurants that combines a good pub atmosphere alongside an impressive restaurant.

Fantastic food and the service was just as good. Great selection of drinks and brilliant atmosphere. We will be back, hopefully sooner rather than later! Thank you

Yet again, the staff and the food where amazing. Thanks again RA

Undercooked lemon sole - still blood around the bones and the flesh sticking to the bones - but also tasteless. Chef apparently said that it is his preference to undercook fish

we have been to the ruddington arms on many occasions now with different friends and family and it has always been without exception excellent food, together with a nice atmosphere and good staff I know I will be going back again and again.

Excellent varied menu to suit all tastes. Imaginative daily specials. Very good service from friendly waiting staff. Good atmosphere. Will definitely recommend and will be returning.

Breakfast was delicious.. We ate in the bar area which was a bit more relaxed with the kids.. Great that the kids had white boards to draw on.. We took ipads.. We all had a super time.

Lovely food and prompt service for a busy Saturday evening. The dessert although very tasty could ha e been better presented. Did not lim the glass jar!!

Food excellence, BUT service was slow for a week day and only about 5 ? tables being used. Also we arrived and when I asked where the toilets were I was told "Oh through there" so I struggled with my mother who couldn't reach the bizarre sink and non named taps. Towards the end of the meal I said this to a member of staff they said "Oh (big word at the Ruddington Arms) there are disabled toilets in a separate place 25 metres away from the main toilets and not signposted at at. The reason I mention this is because my mother was using a walker and clearly disabled. Not friendly, no extra help and even the door with the ramp outside was locked. I had to walk round to ask them to open it.....I'm disabled as well. Food very good, for village pub I thought it on the pricier side BUT excellent selection even if my favourite was on the "specials" board which we were NOT pointed out to us.

A vety nice and relaxing evening with excellent service and food. A joy and delight from first entering to leaving. I would recomnend The Ruddington Arms for a very good night out for any occasuon.

Beautiful family Sunday lunch. The RA managed to add an extra person to outr booking at short notice, despite having a full restaurants by moving us into the bar area. Food was very impressive

Lovely food. The fish and chips were particularly good with tasty peas and fresh, white fish. Service also very good especially as it was coming towards the end of Easter Sunday.

First time eating at this restaurant and it won't be the last. Nice venue, friendly staff and great food at a reasonable price. High recommend

Food at every course was just fantastic. Service very attentive. There were a lot of very noisy children, but that is to be expected I guess as it was Sunday lunch time. We'll definitely be returning.

Lovely decor, it was buzzing with atmosphere, the food was excellent and the service very attentive. Look forward to returning and will recommend to my friends.

Fantastic Sunday lunch. Good portions. Wine list is well priced. Friendly staff. Accommodating and child friendly. Relaxed surroundings. Our first visit and can't wait to come back again. Thanks.

I am Vegetarian and getting a really good Sunday Lunch is a great pleasure. The three carnivores in the party enjoyed it very much as well. We will be returning.

Great food, excellent service, would definitely go again. Nice ambience and food arrived promptly despite being very busy. You must book or you'll Bastard queuing!

Great food and great service. Really nice atmosphere. I had the duck as a special and was cooked beautifully. My wife had the smoked haddock which came with a lovely rich creamy sauce.

My wife and I come to this restaurant a lot because everything about it is good and it is managed by true professionals at their craft. This Sunday I ordered the Gressingham duck from the 'Specials Board' it was superb. Mark, the chef, excelled himself with the combination of flavours he managed to create on the plate. I followed this with the cheesecake which came with one of the best sorbets I have ever tasted. My wife and I continue to be surprised and delighted with the quality and presentation of the food in this restaurant. Finally, must mention the fantastic staff who work their socks of on busy days, thanks guys and girls. Graham

Nice bit of beef in what is now a pimped out pub. Home made deserts were too good to miss. Would definitely recommend a trip for Sunday lunch.

Lovely village pub with great food and nice atmosphere m, would highly recommend it to anybody. Will be going again, maybe for Sunday lunch next time.

not a great table, stuck by a walk way, but very nice staff and generally food well above pub level. We will go again I think.

Crab soufflé and a glass of wine and yes I'm in Heaven🙄

The service for our table of 4 was prompt and the food was excellent and well presented. No complaints at all and we will be back before too long

Great atmosphere, service was excellent with just the right time between courses. Highlight was salmon with Thai red curry which was outstanding with salmon beautifully cooked. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Booked for lunch, was super quick, very tasty and incredibly good value for money. The curried parsnip soup is amazing and the Brie, bacon and cranberry on sourdough is to die for. Cannot fault it!

Unfortunately due to it being Mother's Day food was terrible! My roast beef was full of fat portion was poor , no separate vegetables on side and only 2 roast potatoes ! Prices were also increased and tables so cramped together that you could hardly move ! Last visit few months ago was excellent but will not recommend or visit again after experience yesterday ! Didn't complain at time as didn't want to spoil it for the family !

Food was generally good but service was slow particularly when ordering drinks. They were slope to come. The room was pleasant, clean and well laid out.

Excellent service and food was great. Not sure the surf and turf (lobster and steak) was worth the cost but overall very satisfied and would definitely come again..

Great food and great service! Ruddington is fairly easy to get to from the centre of Nottingham so we could have a few beers in the locals down the road after!
