The Rising Deer in Rotherham

If I could give it 0 I would have. Wow what a sh*t storm. Burnt food, no product knowledge, ordered food and then told I couldn't have what I'd ordered a hour later because they didn't do it anymore. Over priced, what Shame it used to be great. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR FUEL Thurcroft chippy is mikes ahead of this place 🙏

Took my friend out for lunch very disappointed. Sausages burnt vegetables soggy gravy like water thrown together prawn cocktail very dry not enough sauce and bread stale , poor selection of beers and came cloudy. Expensive for a very poor standard won’t be returning.

We called into the the Rising Deer for their fish, chips and a pint offer at £12.95 sounds good, when we got there it was empty? and now we know why! we got frozen chips frozen fish which tasted anything like the Cod we ordered you know the fish I mean down on taste greyish tint to it.. yuk! all I can say is thank god we didn't pay the menu price of £16.95 what a rip off! we won't be going back 🫤

Many thanks to all at The Rising Deer for helping us celebrate Dad's 90th Birthday. Special thanks to Caroline who took the booking and dealt with the various queries re food allergies and dietary needs before and on the day. All 20 of us were very happy with our meals, especially those that had Cod and Chips, and Steak Pie and Chips. There was a slight issue when we found there was no Lemon Meringue Pie, which is my sister's favourite, however she was very happy with the Black Forest Gateau and said it was probably the best she's ever had. Many thanks to all.

Absolutely terrible the food is not as it used to be, Sunday roast was not edible poor quality and not home made at all they still show the old food photos what you get now is nothing like it used to be. when advised staff it was poor they just weren't bothered and took the money. Avoid it such a shame, what was going to a nice family meal out was rubbish. Aunt bessie yorkshire pud Cheap stuffing ball that literally exploded when you cut into it. Frozen roast potatoes Instant mash that has had butter put in to try and disguse it Poor quality meet that was not sirlion in a million years watery tastless gravy The pics below the fitst one is what is advertised the 2nd one is what you get don't hink I have ever seen sirlion look like that...

Just had a fabulous meal, service very quick and a lovely environment. Food all come quickly and piping hot. The haddock and chips are to die for.

A beautiful pub and very friendly staff. Between us we had steak pie, code and chips and Sunday lunch. The portions were very large and the quality of the food is excellent. One of our party asked for a doggie bag as there was enough lamb for 3 grown men! We haven’t been here for a while and after booking we read some negative reviews. We needn’t have worried. It was perfect.

Been here many times before and never had a bad meal. I wish I could say the same about tonight but we were utterly disappointed. One of the meals that was ordered was the lamb rump with crushed herby potatoes, cauliflower puree, charred spring onions and a pepper jus. What arrived at the table was an over-cooked piece of lamb, oven chips and a poor excuse of a salad. It was sent back twice before we gave in and ordered fish and chips. Also, the maple-glazed bacon chop was a single piece of bacon without any glaze. Poor quality of food and nothing like we’ve had previously. We were told that the chef was ‘learning’. They only discounted 1 meal off the bill. This is not the place it use to be!

Been here a few times since it was renovated and the food has always been excellent. Staff and service are good but the food is now shocking. Ordered fish and chips but was later told they had ran out of curry sauce so I couldn’t have it? Ordered chicken supreme instead and it was a small, dry overcooked breast ( they had been sent the wrong meat apparently) , some frozen chips and the worst “salad” every (iceberg lettuce, cucumber, tomato). Asked for some ketchup as it was so dry and even that was cheap and nasty. Stopped after 2 bites and sent it back. Trying to charge £19 for that is outrageous. Will not be returning and judging by how empty it was on a Friday night it won’t be open long.

Birthday meal here and it didn't disappoint. We were a large table so we were in the conservatory area. Everyone's food came out together, all hot and delicious. We will definitely visit again.

I’ve been a couple of times recently and the food and service is excellent. I will definitely be go again to try more of the fantastic menu 👍👍👍

Been here many times but not for a while. It’s obviously got new owners. Don’t expect the food quality to be the same. It’s quite poor for the money. I had fish and chips. The fish was half the size it used to be. It was soggy and quite fishy smelling. The chips were dry and the peas were not great either. Staff were friendly enough but kept asking if everything was ok which seemed odd. We won’t be going back. Shame

It’s been a few months since I was last here but standards haven’t kept the same, I absolutely feel that they have raised and raised significantly. The food , service and friendliness of all staff was just amazing. I definitely look forward to our next visit. Thank you for a truly wonderful evening.

We came here for a lovely Christmas lunch from work. The food was delicious and very beautifully presented. The service was efficient and with a smile. The only thing that dampened it for me was because of other customers. I hope the 2 older couples who were sat behind us feel a bit embarrassed about how they spoke to the serving staff. Questioning whether the chef had changed because they had heard the food had really gone down hill, complaining about how cold it was and how they should get central heating, insisting that they put more logs on the fire (which actually dampened the fire so it became colder!), repeatedly questioning things on the menu. All I can say is that the staff were saints to put up with the rude way that this group spoke to them, and it actually made me a bit uncomfortable. Other than other grumps, this is an excellent pub with such lovely décor, would fully recommend!

Everyone agreed that the food was excellent. Freshly prepared and to a high standard. I Highly recommend this restaurant.

Superb and delicious food along with excellent service. Great choice of food and good portions especially for the children

Went for Sunday Lunch and food as good as ever. BUT service was terrible - very disorganised and obviously not enough waiting staff. Waited half an hour for finished plates to be removed then another half an hour for desserts to arrive. Dont expect fast food of course but pretty disappointed this visit.

My wife says this is now her favourite pub😹. Have called here a few times just for a drink but this time it was a family of 5 adults for an afternoon dinner. My daughter had booked a table. We were greeted with a friendly welcome. We ordered our drinks and they were served to us at the table. The drinks are well kept, we had Theakston Old Peculiar & Pale ale, Neck Oil & Moretti beers. Our food order didn’t take long. We had Steak pie, chips & peas, fish & chips (seemed popular with other diners) bacon chop, chips & peas and a ‘special board’ Soy salmon steak, sambol salad, sticky Jasmine rice & asian style mayonnaise. All the food was good, the service was great. We will certainly be going back again. Prices were what seems to be now normal pub prices, so quite acceptable.

We have just had an evening meal and we were not disappointed, the food was excellent and so well cooked I would recommend the Rising Deer to anyone.The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and so pleasant it just added to our enjoyment.

We have been to the rising deer today to celebrate my mums 60th birthday. We had reserved the conservatory and we have had the most perfect day! The food was absolutely top notch - good home cooking. Our group had Sunday dinners, fish and chips, pie and children’s meals and everything was excellent. The service was fabulous - the staff were friendly and attentive but also left us to enjoy our afternoon. They even provided a cake which was a really lovely touch. We will definitely be returning!! Thankyou Rising Deer!!

I don’t usually write reviews but fell that I must we are quite regular visitors to The Rising Deer just come back with friends from North Yorkshire who was really impressed Staff friendly Food excellent good wine & draught beer can’t ask for more See you all again soon

Well been there 5 times in about 5 months, but this will be the last. I understand some change in management, which seems to have been the problem, never ever the same. Portions slightly less, prices more expensive £14.95 Fish, Chips and Mushy Peas, up £2, but not has good. A bottle of average white wine £22 disgraceful, but what the ladies asked for, more expensive by the glass. Anyway a final bill of £100 for 4 of us, after we rounded up with a tip, should not have done i know. I had the fish and chips and a pint of lager, so no starters or puddings.

We visited yesterday for some brilliant food (the garlic mushrooms with gluten free bread was the star of the show!! Truly amazing!). We had the mushrooms, scotch egg, pie of the day and chicken with mash and green beans - all were lovely, home made and very tasty. Friendly, happy and welcoming staff. Good range of drinks/ food options and coeliac safe - knowledgeable about cross contamination and menu easily identifies food options. We had a great evening and will be back. Thank you!

The food was hot and clearly freshly cooked. The small haddock with chips and mushy peas was delightfully cooked to perfection. I had the smaller portion and it was adequate for me and in fact too large. One had the sea bass and really enjoyed the combination. The pie was hot and lovely. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Recommended +++

Went for Sunday Dinner very disappointed. Beef was fatty had to leave loads. Only one roast potato which was tough and tasted chemically as did the stuffing ! Like the oven had just been cleaned. Tiny amount of mash and veg Service was poor Would not recommend Sunday Dinner her

Previously been here many times. It is now under new management with terrific new booking system which doesn’t involve a conversation with a human being. The text message I received from the system respectfully advised me I could have my table for 4 people for an hour and a half to have a meal ( possibly three courses) and drinks. I respectfully advised the system to stuff the booking where the sun don’t shine! Unbelievable customer relations- won’t be long before they’re shut down.

If your going to charge these prices you have to get it right, making sure the food is hot, warm is not good enough, roast potatoes you get one I had to ask for a steak knife to cut it but I couldn't but did get roast potato in its place, I am sorry but you get one roast potato you expect it to be edible. The mash potatoes must be measured using a desert spoon the veg would just feed a hamster. The beef was fatty cold and processed. The plates are sandwich plates but should be Dinner plates. The best bit was the bill time we had been charged for drinks the we hadn't had we had to have the bill changed twice. Someone said on a review that this place won't last. its a lovely clean place but improvements need to be made. You don't ask for your food to be checked at the table at these prices, you check it before it comes out. Won't be back until we see the reviews improve.

I went with my son (age 1.5), mum and two sisters. The restaurant itself it’s nicely decorated and welcoming. The tables are fine and the seating is comfortable enough. The menu is a little strange. There are plenty of starters, most around the £6 mark....

Delicious food, excellent customer service and lovely surroundings. We have been several times in the past but decided to try again as it’s under new management - definitely didn’t disappoint.

Lovely food, but small portions. Terrible service, and no atmosphere. It got off to a bad start when I was given the wrong wine (sweet when I ordered dry) then when I told the bar staff about the error, and I was told I was...

Utter shambles in service, start to finish. The food wasn`t great either, but it`s mainly the service really needs sorting immediately. I gather the place is under new ownership so the place might get properly trained up, but on this showing, they won`t last long....

Been to the rising deer on several occasions and have never been disappointed Delicious food served in extremely generous proportions- particularly recommend the fish and chips and the steak pie. Specials board is great. Sweet chilli beef when on the specials is particularly divine. Staff...

My family ( 10 of us ) had a frantic meal today to celebrate my birthday 🎉. I can’t fault anything at all ,the table service was excellent, all our meals were superb and the portions where very generous . I can highly recommend it...

Lovely Sunday roasts all round! Come here often with family and always leave full and happy. Staff are friendly and helpful. For my stepfather's 80th birthday, chef prepared a giant (and delicious) apple crumble (his favourite) because he's not a big cake fan. Much appreciated...

Excellent service brilliant food. A small but adequate menu plus specials board, 3 different meals between the 4 of us, all cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. A nice pint or two of Old peculiar also. It's just a pity it's not nex door!

After a few very good visits our last one proved unsatisfactory. The `specials` were the same as previous 2 visits -bacon chops. Nothing particularly exciting on their main one, but tried the sea bass which had hardly any veg with it. The waiting staff seemed...

Visited this place for Sunday lunch following a friend’s recommendation. She visited with her son three weeks ago and reported very favourably, apart from……. flies everywhere! Three weeks on, I came with my own son and was impressed with everything… apart from the flies! I...

On first impressions it’s a nice newly refurbished pub, however it soon became apparent that it was a place for the affluent. The pub is in quite a wealthy village and it was obvious looking in the car park that people with money were the...

Been here several times, the standard menu is pretty decent plus they have specials each day. What`s more, they have good real ales ( eg Old Peculiar and Moonshine ) and more importantly, know how to keep/serve it! There is outside seating too, and a...
