I have been to the Ruddington Arms several times before and as always, it was lovely. I had the baked egg starter with mushrooms and truffle oil, which was really good and the oil was enough to taste but not too overpowering. I iked the spinach in the dish too. The main was the duck special which was really well seasoned with great gravy and granola which I didn't expect to care for but I actually liked the difference in texture. I had cinnamon donuts for desert which are always fabulous. The staff were friendly and the service was quick. On this occasion I brought friends visiting from London here and they were impressed too. I would always reccommend the restaurant, especially if you don't want to go into Nottingham.

We have used the Ruddington Arms a number of times now and always find the staff to be very welcoming. Their menu is diverse and, whilst there are some regular treats, it is regularly varied. The service is wonderful. Thoroughly recommended whether you are in the area or make a special journey to partake!

The food was excellent but we were brought up our mains before our starters, the wrong wine and the service was quite slow but overall experience was good. Also we were supposed to have been given a 10% discount as we were staying at the Lodge in Ruddington but was not given this.

Absolutely fabulous as always! Ruddington Arms is an amazing place with food out of this world and brilliant friendly service! We would always recommend it highly. Yesterday I had booked to have the gorgeous Sunday lunch with my cousin & his partner who had travelled from Dublin. The RA did not disappoint! They were very impressed by the great experience. Thank you all so much!!

Lovely food as always but really slow service tonight as really busy. We ordered bread as nibbles before starters but it never came so we asked for it to be removed from the bill and that was fine. Too many kids about making noise but they do bring in the money sonfair enough.

Booked 3 weeks in advance. Were asked to sit in the pub section. No one asked us for a drink, menu etc. We had to get staff from the restaurant area and remind them that we were around the corner in the pub area. After 3 times calling the restaurant staff, we left which was a real shame.

The food and service were absolutely excellent. The food was reasonably priced, staff knowledgeable and attentive. Only criticism, restaurant needs some soft furnishings to dampen the noise, it became very loud when full with people talking. Will definitely be returning and recommending to friends.

Bright, crisp interior and friendly staff to greet us. All the dishes beautifully presented and cooked. Our vegetarian had two starters and three of us shared the forerib of beef, some of which was wrapped in foil for us to take away. Some interesting wines on the list. A wonderful Sunday lunch!

This is a lovely restaurant. They have a fairly limited menu - which to me is a good thing because it everything they do is done well. It has a very friendly atmosphere. It can be a little noisy at busy times, but this is to be expected when the place is so popular.
