Rockingham Arms - Carta

Found this place on the last day of our holiday, wish we had found it sooner. Excellent in every way, food, service the whole experience

Lovely staff and brilliant service. Nice and relaxing atmosphere. Came for Sunday roast, lovely meal except that the vegetables was a little bit hard to chew. Will come again

It's a great place to rest with a drink, a meal (both) and the dining options include inside or outside with additional heating (outside) but plenty of ventilation, so you can feel as safe as you want to be in these very trying times. The food is exemplary, varied and well presented. With lots of quality local produce on the menu, why not try the pie of the day, you really can't go wrong. Definitely worth a visit after a long walk on the common. Ver carta

The staff was welcoming and the ambiance was pleasant. After seeing photos of the roasts in previous reviews, I decided to order the pork option priced at £18.25. According to the menu, carrots were included, but I only received half of a carrot. The menu also mentioned crackling, but unfortunately, there was none. The dish consisted of two potatoes and two thin slices of pork. Overall, it would have been more satisfying if there were more vegetables and if the dish matched what was described on the menu.

Family and I are locals and often walk down to the rock. We went for lunch yesterday which was disappointingly average. The burger and chips were bland, and the portion size small; a simple garnish to brighten up the plate would have been nice. I had hoped to give the feeedback in person, but we weren’t asked how our food was when the plates were cleared. The food doesn’t quite match the ambience of the pub which is a shame. To end on a positive the staff are really friendly and presentable. We’ll be sticking to just drinks for a while.

Firstly, the Hut was filthy, the seats, table, floor and cushions. Secondly, when one of our dishes was being brought to us, the contents slipped onto the table and floor beside us. Thirdly, the open steak sandwiches only had 2 or 3 small bits of meat, covered in mushrooms on burnt sourdough bread for £13.95. The manager kindly gave us a reduction in our bill. We have visited the Rockingham Arms regularly and the last time was disappointing, so we decided to give them a second chance. Sadly this time was worse so we will not be visiting there again.

Lovely country pub with tasteful decor and clean facilities. Pleasant and efficient front-of-house staff. The set price lunch (2 courses £19, 3 courses £24) was such good value for an impressive, well-presented and tasty menu. The portions were so generous, not like the smaller versions normally offered for set menus elsewhere. What a refreshing change from being ripped off at other eateries. I had Beetroot Gnocchi with asparagus, pine nuts, roasted tomatoes etc, fantastic battered fish and home-cooked triple chips etc and the most delicious Strawberry Cheesecake with meringue, Strawberry jelly and gorgeous Strawberry ice cream. My partner had Asian Soup followed by Steak Mushroom Pie with g...

Well what can I say ! We have just left the Rockinghams after celebrating my husbands surprise 60th lunch time gathering in a side room. The planning with Miami, Hannah and Jake was really professional and they were all very accommodating ensuring everything was just right for us. The atmosphere and layout of the room and food were amazing. The whole event exceeded our expectations and was just perfect. All the guests commented on how lovely the setting was and the food was superb. Our daughter had a separate plate of vegetarian food set aside for her which was very thoughtful and again superb. Everything was home made and beautiful. Thank you chef Rob great job. We could not have asked for...

Read all the wonderful reviews and was looking forward to a lovely meal, unfortunately we were really disappointed. I have to say the staff were great, friendly and welcoming, but.... My Guinness came up with a massive head. OK I can live with that and it was a nice pint. Then we ordered food. Apparently the kitchen closes at 8 and it was 7.30. My wife ordered belly of pork and I went for my favourite, sirloin steak medium rare. The sauce on the pork was laced with salt and the crackling was so over seasoned it was inedible. My steak came up well done and I mean really well done.. To be fair, the young lady that served us did offer to change everything and was super apologetic but we were so... Ver carta
