Great meal as always - first time for Sunday lunch. Good size portions. Friendly staff. Always accommodating. Only negative - venue was very busy and therefore very hot. Unfortunately no windows to open.

Friendly service. Consistently nice food. Their idea of a quiet table not mine. We were it’s true set aside, but only because we were in front of the specials board, where we said hello to nice short sighted folk who visited, also en route for the loos. Next time request table for two in the corner!

The food and service were outstanding and would certainly go there again. The dining room did seem a little in need of refurbishment and a few too many tables. However would recommend.

grumpy waitress when asked for more plates, no mint sauce for lamb dish, got wrong coffee after repeatedly asking for filter, on arrival we sat in pub area for a drink but after 15 mins had to ask for table to be cleared after family had left a mess.

Food excellent as always - some of the best food in the area comes out of this kitchen. But service was poor tonight. Food came before drinks. Wrong drinks came. Wrong size glasses of wine. Water not topped up. Not enough attention and the restaurant was quiet so no excuses that they were busy I’m afraid.

Daughters 15th birthday visit - staff very friendly, the outside terrace was so pretty and they have just added a sun deck which looks amazing. Food was outstanding, as always. We had the RFC, Club Sandwich and Steak Sandwich - all enjoyed immensely. Our favourite place to go.

The food tasted great and it was very well presented. It looked great had a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Staff were attentive but not on top of you. One waiter in particular was very help full a member of our party had a food allergy he did everything to make sure she got the food she wanted. Overall great value for money.

Came after a recommendation from a friend. Nice food and atmosphere. We sat outside as it was quite hot in the restaurant and it was lovely. Only downfall was my other half’s steak was slightly overdone for what he asked but was still delicious. Would definitely visit again.

The food was lovely myself and all the flies thought so, the staff were very abrupt, clearing glasses and not asking if you’d like another drink as if us being there was a hassle.

This is our go to restaurant when we can't be bothered to cook. The food, service and atmosphere are excellent and we always enjoy our evenings at the Ruddington Arms. Routinely, I give the restaurant top marks for the overall experience, but last night we had to ask to move tables because of an infestation of flies in the corner where we were originally sat. Other than that, and last night may have been a one off, 10 out of 10.

Fantastic meal, both food & service by Laura & the team, first class. Pity they've done away with the 'free pint' loyalty scheme. Can't wait to go back again soon nevertheless.

Food here is consistently great! It’s really a gem for a “local” place, with interesting wines and good beer selection, all of which pairs with the fantastic menu

First time visit but not the last. Food was good and served by a very helpful and informative staff. We had booked our table for 8.30 (4 people) and unlike some venues our table was ready as soon as we walked in even though the restaurant was very busy.

An excellent meal, the service was friendly and quick. Food was delicious and the desserts were brilliant. I’m usually a starter and main type of customer, but I am so happy we did main and dessert instead. The doughnuts and Eton mess were wonderful.

The restaurant has always given us good food and service. This visit was a tremendous disappointment. We had single items from the lite bite menu and told the staff we were in a hurry. This took over half an hour to arrive and when it did it was overcooked. Coffee took another 30 minutes. The service was appalling. Don't think we will be back.

Food was excellent as was the service. It is time they lost the wooden trenchers. Look unhygienic and present problems keeping the food on them. Otherwise a most enjoyable lunch.
