Recently been for a meal with my wife, the food was great. The staff warm, friendly and attentive, nothing too much trouble. The pub had a lovely relaxed and welcoming feel

Spacious well presented rooms across the road from the pub, comfortable, quiet and well equipped. Good parking for motorbikes. Beautiful village in walking distance of Wentworth Woodhouse estate. Half an hour to explore the Peak District National Park. Friendly and attentive staff in the pub (special mention to the South African waiter, he was very friendly and funny 😁). Breakfast was generous, evening meals a little hit and miss (ingredients missing 😔) but worth the money and tasty. All in all highly recommended. Book through Greene King for special B&B rates and get 20% off your food 👍

We have just come back from having lunch at the Rockingham arms, I just needed to say we were quite disappointed. The place is beautiful, and we couldn’t fault the staff, one gentleman in particular was extremely attentive, I believe he was quite new to the post. My son and I ordered the lamb shepherds pie which was delicious, though the menu stated we would get minted peas but we just got standard garden peas. Our main disappointment was my husbands Sunday lunch, he ordered the turkey and when it came he had one tiny slice of turkey, which was incredibly dry and had a lot of fat on it, it was pretty poor for the price, with a few roast potatoes and boiled veg. It was our first visit and I don’t think we will return for a Sunday lunch based on the portion given today, which is a real shame as it’s such a lovely place.

Had an awesome stay for our anniversary, all the staff we met was friendly right from check in to when we left. Can't wait to return. Our hotel room was spotless, we don't have a single complaint with how the Rock is being run. It's in good hands. Would be in every night if we could.

We celebrated my sons wedding here yesterday and everything was wonderful. The staff worked incredibly hard and nothing was too much trouble. The sit down meal for 65 people was enjoyed by everyone with large portion sizes and quality ingredients. The rooms were excellent. Beautiful large beds and modern bathroom.

Ordered two meals from the senior menu offering either 2 or 3 courses. Placed order for first course which arrived in good time. Meal seemed good value. Went to order our desert and was told we had only paid for one course. On checking, we had only been charged for one course even though there is no option for this on the senior menu. We accepted a misunderstanding was made and requested to pay the extra to add a pudding. We were told this was not possible as the desert order had to be placed at the same time. After reasoning that there is no option to order a one course meal on the menu, we were told that the terms and conditions stated you had to order courses together. On checking the menu, including all the T and C's on the back (we have photographs), Nowhere does it indicate a price for a single course Or, that the 2nd course has to be ordered at the same time. Aware that most restaurants like an opportunity to be made aware of any issues, we asked to speak to the manager and she advised that she was the manager and would not entertain any further discussion. Very disappointing service and a manager with no common sense. Quoting lines from a menu that don't exist. Owner of Rockingham arms must also accept responsibility for not making menu clearer. A sham of a restaurant that can't even serve two scoops of ice cream right.

Soft drinks were very overpriced - £16 for four diet pepsis from the tap! Food was very small portions. Children's chicken nuggets and chips were good but Children's tomato pasta was tiny and they charged 50p EXTRA for a small amount of grated cheese on top! Wetherspoons quality food for premium prices. Approx 60p per pint more expensive here than another Greene King just down the road. Lovely setting but you don't get any better quality food or drink for your money. Disappointing.

I'd give it 1 star but the meat was ok. I ordered the short rib on bone with mash and fresh veg. Absolutely awful. What I got was a tiny amount grey mash that looked like it had been reheated several times and tasted exactly like how it sounds.The bone was massive which was best thing about the meal as I have dogs! The veg was absolutely soaked in water and inedible. The meat I did get once stripped off the bone would have been about enough for 3 mouthfuls. My partner had fajitas and chicken was overcooked...left nearly everything. I was asked if I wanted anything else but not from here thanks. I would have been embarrassed to serve plate to a customer and walk away. Avoid and go somewhere else...no pride in what they serve and straight to toilet after eating the little we had.

We stayed on Saturday night. We booked over 6 months ago for our wedding anniversary. As we had stayed before we wanted a particular room. I checked the photos on the website and booked a family room with a sofa. When we arrived we had a basic double. It did have a large bed but not the extra space that I had paid for. When I booked the room this was about £15-£20 more expensive but I was told by the staff that I was mistaken and the room we were put in was actually more expensive. It’s not advisable to lie when it’s easy to check online. After deciding to eat at The George and Dragon which had far better service and no dirty food plates on the tables we returned to hear an alarm going off continuously. A member of staff did come to correct this but said not to worry because it had been happening for weeks. The room was boiling as the radiators were on full on a warm day. The rooms have been decorated to a really nice standard but the staff need to learn how to speak to customers. The only person who made us feel welcome was the lady who we saw at breakfast.

I can't rate the rooms as we weren't staying overnight in this greene king hotel. We were a little disappointed you couldn't use your discount from one hotel to another 🤔. We had a lovely family meal together with 12 people booked. We all felt extremely disappointed when a meal arrived in 3 small serving dishes and not on a plate when I specified it was a main meal. Kids were made welcome, and allergies menu was on tablet.

Very poor and seems to be relying on the location. Another member of my group left a review. One star for the food and service and 5 stars for the location. Two mains arrived 2 minutes after our starters and were sent back. We were asked if we would like desserts while still waiting for our mains. My main was burnt. ( Two burnt mains). We complained and got the impression they weren't bothered. 3 different pies on the menu and none available. Its a nice pub to have a drink in but the food wasn't great. We didn't stay in the accomodation across the road. I gave the room 5 stars, it would not be fair to give the rooms any less.

We went on Sunday for Sunday lunch. It wasn’t great. I was hoping that even though it was a chain pub it might be nice as I’d heard good things about it. Wrong. The roasties were tasteless, the stuffing was something else but I don’t know quite what. The Yorkshire pudding looked homemade and was a decent size, but it didn’t taste of anything! And the pigs in blankets were anaemic! The cauliflower cheese was delicious, but we only got a small spoonful, like a dessert spoon size. The meat was lovely 2 large slices of beef but very fatty. At just under £60 for two mains, 2 desserts “, an ok and lemonade and two pints, it was very disappointing. Also, downstairs is lovely, but the seating is very stained and could do with a wash and the carpet has seen better days.

I am writing this review as I have had no response to email sent 25th Feb regarding our experience as a booking of 14 people to celebrate a 60th on the 23rd Feb. - Luke warm meals - Food sent back - Missing food items despite a comprehensive food pre- order sent in a couple of weeks prior -Food lacked quality, some looked like a supermarket ready meal - Steak requested medium rare- served very very well done -Some ( not all) staff unattentive, not one member of staff checked on our meals - The room was so cold, a number of guests ate in their coats - staff making jokes at the bar while waiting to pay when the tills were down- very unprofessional It seems the staff and kitchen were unable to cope with the amount of bookings crammed in at the same time. We usually dine here frequently, however it’s a shame now some of my family won’t be returning. If someone could acknowledge my email I would greatly appreciate it Thanks

What a cracking "dog friendly country pub" with accommodation and friendly staff . It's recently had a great renovation and is in the beautiful village of Wentworth and about a 5 mins walk to Wentworth Woodhouse which is the largest fronted house in Europe. Oh sorry , nearly forgot . It has a HUGE lovely beer garden and their food is yummy . Honestly , if you're thinking of visiting Wentworth Woodhouse from afar you'll not go far wrong staying at the Rockingham arms in the centre of the village and a stones throw ( so to speak ) 5 mins walk from Wentworth Woodhouse . Honestly, just a jewel in the centre of Wentworth 👍

Visited here a few times recently and have always really enjoyed the food so decided to try Sunday lunch. The staff were really lovely as always and the atmosphere was great, however the Sunday lunch did let the whole experience down. I did not expect from this establishment to be served frozen roast potatoes and parsnips, also the veg (carrots and broccoli) were boiled and rock hard. Not great really.

We didn't stay in the rooms, just came in for a late lunch. We first went to the dining area, which we were told was fully booked, however they do serve food in the main pub area. We managed to get seated at a table in the snug which seems to be a highly desired area with people poking their heads in constantly looking for seats. Unlike some Greene King pubs, it didn't look like you could order on the app and there were no table numbers. Ordering at the bar was easy enough and they understood where we were sat. Despite amendments to the order they got everything exactly right. The food was delicious and the portions generous, especially at the lunch deal price. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful. It is a dog friendly pub and there is dog snacks available.

11 of my family celebrated mums 95th Birthday yesterday, what a lovely day! The staff made it become a lovely experience, they couldn’t do enough for us. They were polite & friendly. The room was busy with lots of customers but, they smiled through it all. We brought a cake which they looked after & when the bill was split, they had no issues sorting it. It was a really cold day but it was toasty warm inside. Food wise, hubby had the award winning beef & ale pie with amazing pastry on to & bottom (bottom is always important for him!) I had roast turkey dinner which was lovely. Would recommend Wentworth to visit, my favourite village but, Rockingham Arms was fab for us a family. Thank you all.

We were really disappointed. Had to wait quite a while to be seated and then waited 10 mins after asking for someone to take our drinks order. Another 15 mins for our food order to be taken. One of the dishes had sold out so had to reorder. Food took ages to arrive and was luke warm. We were given fresh hot chips but the rest of the food was very average and cold. We complained and were offered a free drink and desert but even the custard was cold. We eventually just paid for drinks and the waitress (dark brown hair) was very apologetic but not her fault. We wanted a.mice meal out, mot a free meal. We've been here many times and always been pretty good. They need a new chef and .ore staff, sorry

Attended for Christmas lunch. 3rd year we have been and can say won't be doing it again..Terrible main course, some of the staff clearly didn't want to be there. Meals came out staggered in a party of 9..Turkey was over processed, frozen roast potatoes sprouts not very tasteful......Had yo ask for the coffee no mince pies offered was rushed. We were probably a little late to finish up 5.15 but the main meal was late coming out due to people in the barn being served so not technically our fault....Was asked if we could wrap up as they wanted to get home. Having worked kitchens for many years we never did a Christmas lunch service due to staff working and reflection of food quality combined with cost( have to pay the staff an attractive wage on Christmas day)...Stale cheese, soft crackers no pickle served like last year.. Sorry was terrible and embarrassing to 2 our friends that we had hyped on about it bring nice not this year it wasn't.....Email has been sent no reply as yet.

6 people ate food. Out of the 6, 5 were not happy with their food. 2 pies came out cold. These were replaced but were obviously microwaved the pastry was rubbery. The cauliflower had mould on it and could be eaten. The burger was grisly and the child didn’t eat it. Any mash potato again looked like it had been microwaved. We spoke to the staff at the time and even though the pies were swapped the replacement was no better. Very disappointed. Prices of drinks were extremely high too, nearly £12 for 2 waters and a J2O. £6 a for Carling we won’t be returning.

However I must say for the amount of people that was in the restaurant we was seated in the middle of the room and there were plenty of tables available and felt quite in the way as people and staff kept squeezing by. Could’ve said something but with there only been two of us we wouldn’t need a big table Overall nice meal n lovely staff just didn’t like the seating plan Plenty of parking

Most disappointing meal from a pub I have had in a long while. Expected more as mistakingly thought the venue to have similar standards to the other pubs in the brand chain. Drinks ordered took longer to arrive than going to the bar ourselves. Having waited for ordered drinks to arrive we decided they must have been completely forgotten about, went to the bar and ordered more then brought back to the table. Our ordered drinks arrived about five minutes later. For 2 courses ordered on the third time of asking it took over 2.5 hours for the course to be served. We were at the venue for nearly 3 hours. Yes, they had a large group nearby, but they were still waiting for courses when we left and were seated when our group arrived. The restaurant was 2/3 full at its peak. Can't speak for the pub half or the hotel part of the venue as didn't bother to investigate.

Came here on Xmas Eve with high expectations. There were 7 of us and two dogs. My mum had previously enquired where we were sat as one of our dogs was a big so we would need room. She was shown a spacious table near the bar but on the day, we were put cramped up in an alcove space with no space for an our big dog who kept getting stepped on by staff and customers. When we ordered food, we did it separately but all after each other so no confusion. Mine and my partners meals were missing when they brought food and we had to wait 20 minutes as they’d not even been cooked. We were offered free desserts but didn’t take it as we just wanted to get out. When we did get our food, it was bland and was evident it was rushed and mostly microwave food. Staff had no control over foot traffic either. People were just blocking tables and staff just allowed it. Although we were offered desserts, no actual apology was offered and we just felt like our family night that we’d been looking forward to had been ruined. Have more control over where customers are stood on a day like Xmas Eve. Or don’t offer food on this day as it was terrible.

No real apology n teally quite rude. We left, went down the road n had a lovely meal - their loss.

Horrendous experience. Family Christmas meal booked for 9 people in the restaurant and it was a complete shambles. Missing chairs at our table and having to find these ourselves as no staff available, pre-ordered food not available and having to reorder from standard menu, 30 minute wait for drinks, starters cold, informed that the staff were struggling as there was a wedding on in the other side 🤷🏻♂️,main meal still not arrived hour & half later... when it came out it was stone cold and missing food items again. At this point we said we were leaving, a complete disaster. No senior management on the premises we were told, so emailed them a few days later to advise of our experience. Response in 24 hrs from Andy (which was appreciated) and he said he would check with the 'Holding Manager' and get back to me... that was three weeks ago! Despite me emailing again a week ago, still no response. If this is the action of senior management, no wonder the place has gone downhill, with so many poor reviews on Google and Tripadvisor over recent weeks.

Group Christmas party 7 for 7.30. Starters took ages to arrive. Soup seemed to be out of a tin and was Luke warm. Staff again took ages to remove dishes and had another long wait for the main course. My husband had steak which came with chips which were soggy and colourless . My turkey dinner was again luke warm. I wanted to complain there and then but manager no where to be seen and my husband paid and we left definitely would not go there again . Also bar was chaotic when we arrived with staff moving tables around while customers were sitting at them

3 meals ordered all different and all terrible Cheap crappy scampi & 15 on one plate that's it. Cheap frozen really thin piece of fish & 20 chips on another that's it. Soggy natchos on another, tried saying they go soggy when you put stuff on top eaten nachos for years and if done properly no they don't. No peas no side salads on scampi or fish. Worst meal out in a long time. Was bad last year but thought we would give it benefit of doubt. Total waste of money.

Recently dined here for the Christmas menu. The camembert starter was cold and the bread like rock. The main meal only real edible part was the salmon the frozen veg was exactly that the parsnips were black and charred no parsnip inside the roast potatoes had no potato in. The atmosphere from the staff especially management was none existent no one checked to see if we were happy with the meal. Used to be a lovely pub but won't be going again or recommending.

Service was terrible barely any staff and lack of organisation.Tried to order drinks at the bar and got told it was table service however we waited 30 minutes just for the menu and to order drinks. Once seated nobody asked if we wanted a drink.The only reason i’m giving it 3 stars is the food it wasn’t anything special for the price but it was nice enough.

The hotel room was very good. Spacious, comfortable and clean. The room was well equipped. We ate an evening meal for 2 in the restaurant. Excellent value. We were served by Megan who was a very good hostess. Would stay again. Would recommend. Excellent value for money

Booked 2 weeks in advance for a 3 o clock meal.There were 10 of us celebrating our grandsons engagement which we told the girl who took the booking.We were told the restaurant wasn't available but would be fine upstairs and yes the tables were reserved for us. When we came to order our food we were told they were extremely busy and it would be at least 40 to 45 minutes before they would start our order and then there would be cooking time on top.Why accept a 3 o'clock booking. Unfortunately we were unable to wait so our afternoon was spoilt..Won't be booking again

Megan gave us great service in the restaurant and the manager was fully in control. Food was good portions with plenty of choice. However Green King you need to sort your user interface out on the waiter's ordering pads it's stoneage tech. The hotel seemed to be wrestling with similar. I felt sorry for the staff struggling with that Windows95 looking crap, help them out!

Old fashioned pub. Been lots over the years and it seems to have lost some charm. Cheap pop and dirty glasses.

Went for food this evening and couldn't have had a more pleasant experience. The venue as not long since undergone refurbishment which looks beautiful! The food is gorgeous too. I had Beef Rib Bourguinon and my friend the lamb shank. Both dishes were divine. Highly recommended!

Evening meal menu is great and reasonably priced - would recommend. Breakfast is rather pricey for what was available on the day we visited. Continental buffet is £6 but there were only 2 croissants and 6 slices of bread out for toasting. One of our party only had a muffin and a glass of fruit juice so £6 was rather steep. One of the party had a bacon sandwich and a slice of toast which cost £10 as the sarnie was on the cooked breakfast menu - full English was the same price, so again costcm was steep for what they had.

This little gem is not to be missed. It's a great atmosphere, with young people who are learning their trade in hospitality. Great food overseen by a professional chef and front of house lead by manager John. Always a pleasure and we have never been disappointed. Give it a try, I'm certain you will enjoy the experience.
