The Roebuck in Harrogate

Lovely setting. Very nice food, with a good selection of pub food.1 Friendly and helpful staff

Myself and my partner called in for lunch this afternoon. Very busy pub but Kirsty was able to accommodate us. I had the bacon and mushroom omelette from the light bites (£9.95) came with huge chunky chips, partner had the lamb kofta (£8.95). Both excellent meals and very filling. Cannot fault.

Excellent food & service. Great menu with something for most tastes. Staff were attentive & polite. Nice atmosphere & decor. Ample parking. Stunning views. Highly recommended.

Lovely pub. The pies are fantastic. Dog friendly in the bar area, but make sure you book with that in mind.

Tremendous food with a large selection. Well kept beer choices.

Good range of pub grub and a child’s menu was on hand. Everyone was very pleased with their meals - the steak in the steak and ale pie was so tender, pastry so short it was very filling but delicious. Yorkshire puddings were huge. One downside was the 10% service charge on the bill. Not sure why this needs to be added on. Service was exceptionally slow and arguably not worth the £15 we were charged.

Would like to thank karen for a wonderful service for our sisters birthday had a great day everyone enjoyed it great service lovely lady -Jeanette and family

Food is expensive but reasonable .

Went as a group of 10, so we were asked to pre order when we booked the table which is not really my favourite way of doing things but I have to say very pleasantly surprised, orders came out together, the quality food very good, the Roebuck cocktail "prawn" certainly didn't skimp on the prawns, almost a meal in itself. Very good staff with just the right amount of attentiveness. So happy to have a day off moaning 😂

What a lovely spot for lunch in the sunshine. Such a great team working there too, with delicious food and good beer.

Just a brief stop by but I enjoyed the drink and view.

Absolutely love it here. Food is amazing and I'd eat here every day if I could xxx

Not baby friendly! Came today for lunch with two friends and babies, was seated in the bar by a lovely waitress… then asked to move by a different member of staff because the prams were taking up too much room. Even though there was no reservations where we were. They suggested we go elsewhere. Won’t be returning 😂

Nice place. Great views from the outdoor area

Nice to have a burger with a pretzel bun.

Lovely outdoor seating area. Indoor dinning area was comfortable and spacious. Good menu. Ate here two consecutive nights. Steak pie first night, very nice. Stuffed lamb second night. Good choice of sweets. I thought everything was reasonably priced for the quality served.

Just been for my friend's birthday meal...it was as fantastic as always. Every time we've been, everything is always top notch. Food is always so tasty & well presented. The staff are friendly & professional, always will to help. We even got a candle in my friend's dessert today & they sang happy birthday to her. A lovely touch as they had happened to find out about it without anyone saying anything. Great pub in a beautiful setting with plenty of parking. Seating in & out doors. Plus a ramp for wheelchair access.

Excellent food great choice of menu and very good value for money

Had the lovely Sunday Dinner. Staff all lovely and friendly. Booking is required!

After our disappointing pit stop elsewhere we were relieved to arrive at such a welcoming place. Highly recommended! Food - I could’ve kissed the chef! Their homemade Chicken and Herb pie was absolutely delicious and a true winner! Service - impeccable, friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble, thank you. Atmosphere - lively, family friendly and a lovely place to be. If I could give 10 stars I would. We will definitely be back,

Our wonderful lunch at The Roebuck on Sunday was let down by being asked to vacate our table as it was needed for a reservation. This was at 4.30pm, when only one other table in the dining room was occupied. The bars were almost empty too. If the table was needed there are more skilful and courteous ways this could have been handled than baldly being asked to leave. The 2 of us had been there a while but had spent over £100 on food and wine and may have ordered more if we had stayed. This abrupt ending to an otherwise perfect lunch – excellent food, service, ambience – all on a lovely summer afternoon, has severely tarnished our views of The Roebuck –which we have always considered to be one of the best Otley eateries until now. Shame.

would like to offer my gratitude to the chef and waiting staff for a delicious lunch with you today. The food was superb and of a very high standard. Your waiting staff were most attentive to our needs and provided both food and wine most efficiently. My friend and I booked for a 1pm sitting and were happy to continue our conversation and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Until we were uncourteously asked to leave. Due to our table supposedly being required soon. Regardless of the fact there were five other tables empty. This was not, in my opinion, an acceptable form of quality "customer service". I am a regular customer to The Roebuck and would have appreciated and expected a more hospitable way of informing us of the need for a table. We felt a "thank you" for our service could have been applied and, perhaps, a different attitude towards our presence may have made a difference. In fact, if we'd felt welcome, we might have stayed for coffee. I will pass this on to Trip Adviser as, to be honest, being a local customer, I am very disappointed

Looking for a lunch venue after dropping some things off in Otley. Out of town suited us and good reviews. Not disappointed. Booked a table outside, arrived a few minutes early and it was ready. Really friendly staff, with the ‘Madam D’ cruising around, which was nice to see. Drinks order, no rush, time to peruse the menu, chose, swapped, chose again, changed mind….. I went for Belly Pork and the current wife went for the Lamb. Arrived - beautifully presented and a good sized portion, just the right amount. Superbly cooked, fresh veggies on the side, piping hot. Lots of Mmm’s and Oooo’s followed. Crackling was stunning and my photos don’t show the veggies I am afraid. Would I make a comment…? A personal choice would have been apple sauce with the pork rather than the apple chutney, but - opinions vary !! No room for pud, coffee was hot, with choice of milk and a little chocolate - vital ! My word - a great lunch out, great food, great service, we will return.

A great place for lunch or dinner and one that we have returned to many times. The lunchtime menu today offered a reasonable choice and the food we ordered was declared to be vary good, by all four of us. The service was, as ever, friendly and the atmosphere comfortable and relaxing.

Fantastic welcome, Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic food and service. Value for money. Highly recommended this lovely place 😊

Lovely welcome, great atmosphere, superb food and value for money. Pleasant and very efficient staff. Would highly recommend this place. We don't live in the area, but hope to be back again one day!! A big thank you to all the staff!!

Excellent meal. I had steak pie, my partner had scampi. The Burrows pale ale was also tasty. Place was empty at Sat tea time, maybe something to do with a footy match. Will certainly revisit.

What a great find. Lovely food. Reasonably priced. Friendly and attentive staff. Amazing views from the terrace. Large car park.

Early evening dinner with family. High quality gastro/ pub food. Fish pie excellent. Steak pie excellent. Great service. Beautiful room with new oak frame. Not cheap but decent value. Looking forward to going back.

Food is top notch, service was ok, which is why I gave 3 stars for service , but overall I did really enjoy my visit and would definitely recommend to anybody.

Stunning pub, stunning grub and stunning errrr something that rhymes with the above. First off, order the pies. Proper pies, none of that “pastry lid on some stew” lark. Good selection of beers. Was upsold cauliflower cheese and it was DELICIOUS. Fab service, friendly and quick. Loved it.

Sunday lunch for 4 on 2nd June 2024. Everything was fantastic,the food, the presentation, the serving staff, nothing was too much trouble. 5 stars for everything.

Exceptional food. Can’t wait to go again!!!!!

Very good meals. Especially the steak was excellent. The staff is very friendly. The nice ambiance gave us a cosy feeling. Reason to come back!

Great food, great views great staff and amazing homemade jam rolly Polly

Lovely restaurant and pub. Excellent food and service, friendly staff. Not many restaurants serve a good portion of gravy, but this one does !! Reasonably priced meals too. Highly recommend the Roebuck pub.

Lovely traditional pub, amazing locally sourced food. Excellent quality. One of the best places to eat in Otley.

We made a reservation here for lunch after a walk around the Cow and Calf, and they had a nice snug area for the 5 of us (plus a dog!). We went for the “famous pies” and they were truly delicious…amazing pastry, proper pies, great chips on the side. Relaxed, traditional atmosphere. The rest of the menu looked good as well, with a nice selection of vegetarian options. We would come here again just for the pies!

Excellent food well worth a visit been back a few times

Very impressed. Went for Sunday lunch with family, and everything was very good - staff friendly, service good and the food was excellent. Had the roast beef Sunday roast, and everything on the plate was cooked well and seasoned well.

Didn't have food but it smelt really good! Nice boozer, lovely views out back on the patio area! Had a couple of lovely pints of Forged Stout

Very busy which says a lot these days. More restaurant than pub. Good food and a great pint of Saltaire Blonde.

We had booked a table for 4 people but they said they didn't have a booking for that time so we were off to a bad start from the off. We were then rushed into ordering our food by the chief waiter who told us he was expecting a large group in so we had better order now or expect a long wait or words to that effect. Starters were okay but m garlic mushrooms were served on a thick slice of untoasted white bread which is a first for me and made the dish rather soggy. Three of us had Scampi which was just so so while the other in our party had a beef sandwich with chips and unfortunately the beef was so tough he couldn't eat it, this was of course taken off the bill which is the least they could do but it did mean that the guest in question went away hungry with no recompense for that. All in all a very forgettable experience that won't be repeated any time soon.

first time customer and I would definitely return! amazing food! definitely order a dessert if you come! a little on the pricey side but a good amount for what you pay for. The young lady that served us was fantastic! she was very efficient and really looked after us

Excellent food and service. Big servings, very rich puds. Will be back.

What a lovely pub with fantastic food. Hubby and I called in without a reservation and the car park was busy on a Friday lunchtime. We weren’t optimistic about getting a table for two but we were in luck. We had a lovely welcome, great service and the food was fantastic. No photos as we were too busy tucking in. It was refreshing to be in a busy pub with a lovely atmosphere. We were sat near the kitchen doors watching the food coming out and hearing the happy hubbub from the kitchen. Service was faultless and we would highly recommend. Can’t wait to return as the pies looked tempting for mains and the deserts menu was a really tough decision.

Found the Roebuck online when looking for a quality restaurant for a special family meal whilst visiting the area and we were not disappointed. The staff were brilliant and the food was fabulous, catering well for special dietary requirements. Our dog was even supplied with a bowl of water. Would highly recommend and will definitely visit again when next in the area.

Stunning gastro pub, very delicious food and friendly and welcoming staff. Thank you guys 🙏🏻

Took our mum for her birthday. Staff were great and the food was fantastic. I would book before you go as it gets busy.

Just had a really lovely meal this evening my first visit for a few years everything was excellent top class Will definitely be going again

Went here for lunch with a friend and thoroughly enjoyed my meal of scampi and chunky chips.The service was excellent and the views a delight

Wow! Great food with Vegan and vegetarian options, lovely staff and a wonderful atmosphere. What more could you ask for!

A warm and welcoming greeting in arrival. Excellent food choices to suit all tastes.The Sea Bass ona bed of seafood linguistini was fantastic....an excellent choice for a fish lover like me and good value too.

Nice food, i would say over priced. One small bowl of veg between 3 and my pie was served with a desert spoon full of mashed potatoe.

We were in the area walking and looked for somewhere to eat and found this place. Called to book a table and luckily they had a table for us! Really lovely place. Cosy, warm and plenty of space between tables and had a lovely atmosphere. Even though all the tables were occupied it was not crazy loud and we could still have a sensible conversation (so many places just seem so loud when full) The menu has enough choice for anyone to find something they want, and obviously because it was Sunday they were also doing roasts (but it's great they also do their regular menu on Sundays too) I had the burger which was very impressive. The burger itself was very big, juicy and very flavoursome. I normally object to paying extra for cheese on a burger however there was a LOT of lovely melted cheese which tasted great with the meat of the burger. I asked if I could have the pretzel bun that came with the 'garden burger' and was told yes with no hesitation. Glad I did as the pretzel bun was amazingly soft and doughy! My wife got the roast beef which was also very good. It came with a jug of gravy so you put on as much or little as you want. I wish everywhere did this! Good quality beef, cooked nicely and still pink. Lovely buttery mash, perfectly cooked roast potatoes and a bowl of lovely well cooked vegetables. We shared the sticky toffee pudding for dessert which was the best dessert I've ever had. The sponge was so so soft with a really lovely flavour. It came with a good amount of toffee sauce but not loads (the perfect amount) and unusually the sponge and sauce were not overly sweet which just made the whole thing even nicer to eat. Service and pace of the whole meal was perfect. We didn't feel rushed at all, ordered quickly after being seated, and the food came out much quicker than we expected considering how busy the place was. Prices are not cheap, however they are similar to many other places these days. But the quality of the food and service definitely made us feel that the prices here were worth paying. I can't remember the last time we had such an all round amazing meal and we would definitely recommend this place and we will be back. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Food, service and ambiance was amazing! Very Christmasy! The festive menu was great, some of the best roasties and cauliflower cheese I've had at a pub. Parsnip soup and herby butter was delicious and the treacle tart was the best ever. I'm still dreaming of that treacle tart.

Mint country pub, nice decor Had the steak & Ale pie and went down great with a pint of Cruz Campo.

Came here with friends and we had pre booked the festive lunch the food we thought was amazing and the service was first class this was our second time here last time was two years ago for the festive lunch which by the way was first class we will be back hopefully again for next year thank you again all at the roebuck

Possibly the best Sunday roast in the area. Very flavoursome chicken and veg, with a big Yorkshire pudding and lashings of gravy. Speedy and friendly service as well

Lovely pub food excellent particularly the steak pie and chicken and leek hone made was delicious 😋

We had a family gathering of 11, so no mean feat, the allocated location in the restaurant was superb, the level of service and attentiveness of the staff was first rate, everything done timely and with a smile. From a selection of starters, main courses and deserts, not one of us had even a hint of negativity, the food was amazing across all courses. This was up there with the very best dining experience I have had in a long time and would highly recommend, I will definitely return in the near future.

Slight mix up to start as our booking was missing ?! A table in the bar was available and this was fine. Staff very friendly and helpful especially Bella. The food was mostly excellent, especially the starters including the special squid and the prawn and the haggis. The mains were mainly excellent - the fish pie, steak & ale pie and beef chin but the goats cheese parcel was a bit disappointing. Only one dessert which was a de-constructed cheesecake which was slightly strange. Overall an enjoyable meal.

We went for lunch, we arrived around 11.30 and we enjoyed a coffee till 12.00 when we ordered food. We had some delicious soup, chicken pie and salmon, which were fresh because their food is homemade and absolutely amazing.

Food 6/10 Service was great. 10/10 But the music made me want to pull my ears off. 2005 CD timberland and some Rihanna. No thanks. Nice pub, could be much better tho.

As always an amazing dinner @roebuckotley , the pies are epic, and the roast beef never disappoints. Intact I have rebooked for 2 weeks time and even boxing day!

We went for Sunday lunch I had the chicken leak and mushroom pie my husband had steak pie it was mouthwatering great fresh veg and mash All presented well and the right portions I then had the treacle tart it was the best one ever mmmmmm We had one starter one pudding to meals 68 pounds including drinks excellent value got the high standard Dogs also welcome !! Will be back soon Thank you

Great food, friendly staff and were very helpful with allergies. Thank you!

Called here for lunch whilst visiting the area on holiday. It was busy and we hadn't booked but they found us a table. Good, very friendly service. Large portions of food, well cooked, plenty of choice 😋 Also offered a take out box for what we couldn't finish. Would recommend 👌

Amazing food, Lovely staff staff, can't wait to go again

Great food, friendly staff and an excellent view. A cut above the average "gastro" pub. Wide range of chips!

A meal for my wife and myself, on returning home from the Emmerdale tour. Wow. What a pub.🤗😀. The food was just incredible. Great value too with loads of quality choices. The service was polite and friendly but very efficient. I wish we lived nearer.

We’ve visited a couple of times recently and had nice meals with generous portions. Good quality food with attentive service.

Exceptional service, lovely food and well placed for views. Had a Sunday lunch.

Very welcoming and accommodating since we did not book for Sunday lunch Food was hot and fresh, staff were lovely Very nice all in all and highly recommend

Been to this pub on many occasions and had lovely experiences. However this time not great. Walked into the pub towards the bar and was greeted by have you booked. No hello and no welcoming smile. We said yes we had booked but would like to sit outside with a drink while other members of our party arrived. Was told to go follow her to our table which was inside . However we carried on walking to the outside acknowledging our table. She was not pleased order drinks and sat outside . When we sit down inside we were greeted with no chicken pies all went on Sunday. Obviously had not got a new delivery in or baked any. Meal experience not brilliant small portion of veg to be shared amongst us, drinks expensive . Pie crust hard and one member of the party their crust was burnt. Won’t rush back. Such a shame as it was in the last a lovely place to eat

Long time since I visited, I remember a grass beer garden with stunning sunset views over to Ilkley, sadly, it's no more. But there is a lovely raised patio for drinks and meals, alas, no real sunset views as trees and local garages, sheds etc block the view. My pic is a cropped pic from very near the patio to give you an idea of what is lost.... Still, it's a fab country pub/diner, the food looked and smelt great, (I didn't eat), the staff were lovely, and I highly recommend it!

Had the hot roast beef sandwich for lunch. The beef was beautifully cooked with a more than ample portion. Would recommend

We found this fab pub after visiting my mum who is in Wharfdale Hospital as we have just moved to Ilkley we were looking for a nice place for lunch. Wow what a great place the views were spectacular and the the food was delicious. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. We will be returning on a regular basis. Thank you

I don’t go out for a pub lunch often but when I do it’s a big treat for me. I like to wander up to the bar, order a pint, maybe have 2, check out the menu and order something. Not here, it’s not allowed. This place has a very clear idea of what it is and customers must comply. First and foremost you are met at the door by a server and the message is “have you booked? if not we may or may not admit you”. We were shown straight to a table. The server insisted that we sit at a table for 6 even though a table for 4 came available very soon after we arrived. I was back-to-back with another guy sitting behind me, it was cramped, our chairs were touching. I went back to the bar to order drinks. It was not staffed. When a server eventually arrived he served the guy that had arrived at the bar several minutes behind me. To be fair the server did ask me what I wanted whilst serving the other guy but then said that I should return to my table and wait to be served. I returned to my table and another server came and wanted to take my food order. I told her that I wanted to wait for my drinks first. When our drinks did eventually arrive the server was at the table seconds later wanting to take our food order. I felt pressurised into ordering and did so, but I was rushed. Again, to be fair, the food was excellent and although I saw French fries being cleared away from one table, we had to endure “cheffy railway sleeper” chips. We may have seen what we wanted on the menu if we hadn’t been rushed. Cmon guys, only chefs like chunky chips. Last time we went here it was a nice pub with nice food and a nice atmosphere. Now it has a very clear idea of what it wants it’s customers to receive and if the customer doesn’t like it tough luck!!

Place was amazing! Very cozy, food was amazing and plenty of seats available. You could tell they were understaffed as the service took much longer than expected (we waited for over an hour to get our food) the line at the bar was huge but overall it was worth it.

Fabulous food, great service and atmosphere. An interesting menu providing lots of choice, it was difficult to narrow our selection. Generous portion sizes. Recommend booking as walk ups were being turned away. Great to see a pub business thriving.

Went here with family for the first time today, and it was truly amazing. We enjoyed all our meals, it was a lovely atmosphere, and friendly staff. I can highly recommend 👌 We will be back :-)

Lovely place to nip in for lunch. Friendly staff, nice and clean and a cracking selection of old school puddings. Great stuff

Love it here. Our go to for sunday lunch. Can even bring the dog. Food is consistently good

I had taken a friend to Otley hospital, with the car park being refurbished I had to find an alternative place to park and the roe buck seemed to be the better option ,but I did not go in but have been before years ago really nice pub to visit or for a meal I will certainly if that way again drop in,I would recommend this place

What a find this place was! Outstanding food. They state on their website that their pies are legendary, I have to agree! Best pie I have ever had. Welcoming and friendly staff. Great value for money

We came here to celebrate my parents 40th wedding anniversary and the food was amazing, the staff were attentive and the atmosphere was relaxed. Would highly recommend and will be coming back!

Met up with family and friends for Sunday lunch. Food was excellent, most of us opting for the selection of roast dinners.

Visiting from Ireland. Lovely food

Pre-booked a table for Friday evening. The dining area is nice with good views over the surrounding hillsides. My Lamb kofta Starter was really meaty and tasty. Opted for the Steak and Ale pie with chips. The Pie was well filled with nice chunks of steak and the chips were very good. The accompanying veg was a little raw for me although my Wife loved it. Pie crust was a little hard but the gravy softened it up. Nice friendly staff and good service

Since covid we have struggled to find a good pub. A lot of places have seemingly dropped in quality and hiked prices. Thankfully we found this place last year and it has now become one of our go to places for good pub food. Prices are mid range - high, as most places seem to be at the moment, but at least you know you are getting good size dishes and quality food.

This is a very friendly place and the service is very good.

What a find this place is….. will definitely be visiting here again!! A very charming interior with very friendly staff. The food is superb! They have a fabulous menu with lots of choice, from traditional to something a little different…. The presentation on the plate is stunning!! Table service is absolutely on point and you are neither rushed or left without drinks / empty plates in front of you. Add this to the stunning views out across a beautiful countryside view while dining and it leaves just one question….. What took me so long to find this place? INCREDIBLE PLACE TO DINE!! 10/10 Thank you for everything it was faultless. ( Recommended by my brother and his family for us to celebrate my nephews Birthday/ visited on 22/07/23 )

Pies are excellent, puddings yummy

We count ourselves very lucky to have family living in Otley near to this fantastic old pub. The food, ambience and service are second to none and is amongst the best pub dining experiences we have experienced on our travels back to the UK. From the lamb kofta starter through to the belly pork main, coupled with a great pint of Black Sheep that I had was an absolute delight. The rest of the family had prawns or garlic mushroom starters and various home made pies for mains and none of them disappointed. The chips are to die for! One slight downside is that the king sized prawn starter was extremely hot (which of course is good) but as the prawns were still “in shell” it made for an uncomfortable time trying to de-shell them. We also had to ask for a finger-bowl which we would expect to be a standard provision. These are only minor points which did not detract in the slightest from an overall very enjoyable experience. We will definitely be very keen to return during our next UK visit

Great food & ale. I would have preferred a table in the conservatory but hey, we booked late.

Booked lunch and was really looking forward to the pies (I am a pie fan) they sounded excellent. However, I was incredibly disappointed. The starters were lovely, very flavoursome. The pies on the other hand were not so. My husbands filling was lovely, but the pastry was thin and unpleasant. They just resembled a pre prepared case with the filling of your choice and a lid which was decorated.The pastry cases were not cooked properly mine was still raw in parts which was sent back and a new one presented. Still not good and the filling was devoid of any flavour. It was supposed to have cheddar cheese in but the only cheese I found was on the lid. The filling was just potato and onion no real seasoning. The garlic and herb sauce was ok, thin but offered the only flavouring for the pie not too garlicky which was good. Chips were excellent as was the veg. Staff are very friendly and location lovely. In my opinion the pies need reviewing!

Amazing food at reasonable prices. Very friendly service and great at any time of day. There's a dog friendly area too for diners (through the roadside pub entrance)
