The Roebuck Inn in Wiltshire

Exactly how a family lunch should be. Great food, outstanding service and a fantastic genuine atmosphere. This place came highly recommend through friends and we were not disappointed. Can't wait to go back again.

had sunday lunch here and was very happy with both the food and service ,mixed roast generous and delicious also do a burger with cheese very good quality service friendly and casual

Met with friends for Sunday lunch. Roast beef was really good and the staff were excellent too. Would definitely re-visit if in the area.

A Fullers pub located half mile from the town centre. Very friendly, immediately greeted by the landlord and regulars on entering. Separate dining area, low beams and an open fire.

Met a friend here as a halfway point between London and Cardiff. Super friendly staff and one of the biggest and loveliest roasts I've had in a long time. The staff allowed us to sit and chat for hours which was really appreciated, and then homemade desserts to die for - the Baileys cheesecake was epic! Thank you for such a lovely afternoon!

The High Street was packed on New Years Eve so we drove 2 minutes to the pub, parked in the free car park, relaxed and had a lovely bar meal. The two bar staff were both really helpful and friendly:)

Four of us plus baby have just had an absolutely lovely Sunday roast. All fresh and homemade. Delicious starters too. Thank you to the lovely staff.

Pleasant and quiet surroundings [no blaring music or TV] combined with very good food. Nothing to criticise.

Just had a very nice lunch at the Roebuck, where we gave always enjoyed good food and service. The open fire was lit and there was a pleasant ambience. The staff all very friendly and helpful. The menu choice was very good and the plentiful food was well prepared and presented and at a reasonable price.Altogother,a very pleasant lunch.

Excellent Sunday roast for 13 people. Professional staff and a good all round experience, nothing was too much trouble.

Good Sunday Lunch We enjoyed a visit yesterday (16th October) Overall experience 8 out of 10 We had a big party of 13 people and the food was tasty we sat in the bar area and overall a good Sunday Lunch.

First , had a very decent and well kept pint of Pride, to accompany tasty steak Ciabatta and fries with salad. Second the landlord whilst low key provided a warm welcome and excellent service. Nice ambience ,nothing flashy/ tasteless and really it was ideal for a place to meet for lunch and a beer. This enterprise deserves to flourish and if more pubs provided this experience ,not so many of them would be closing.

We were exceptionally well looked after when we had lunch here last weekend. We were a difficult party of 10 complete with two elderly parents with limited mobility and one coeliac. The food was excellent with very generous portions. Not all of the plates were empty at the end!. I had gluten free fish and chips (with crushed minted peas) and you would never have known the batter was wheat free. The service was outstanding (I think they specifically got some gluten free beer in for me)! We are well versed in seeking out gluten free places and the Rowbuck was a great success. The tenants are relatively new and if they continue to offer the kind of service that we had then hopefully they will be very successful.

A lovely local pub and restaurant. We tried a selection of starters and they were great. A lovely couple run this pib and we wish them well

Me and my wife went on date night. We had a nice table and there was lots of place outside if that is what you want. I have lots of choice which is very unusual and they made sure that they told me that my food was cook in a different pan and something that had had wheat in. The food was hand on heart great for both of use. GOOD FISH too.

Popped in for a a couple of drinks and evening meal and we certainly weren't disappointed . Great service, bar staff friendly and accommodating plus the food was amazing ....what more could you ask for ?

When we arrived they were clearly under staffed but the waiting staff could not have been nicer and more accommodating. The menu is fairly limited but what they do, they do really well. The fish and chips has the lightest batter and the mussels and...

Had lunch with my sister. Lovely food, host, quick service and nice ambiance. Would recommend and would definitely like to go again.

We went in here to eat The food is mediocre at best with almost all, being really bad quality. The service is miserable. The management are lacking in understanding towards the customer individual needs Avoid

despite having booked 2 months in advance and having a confirmation they got the time wrong and then tried to sit us in armchairs for a meal, after many excuses from the landlord (everyone's fault but his) we eventually got a table with chairs! table...

We had a family festive meal on a Sunday. The roasts were to die for and the staff very welcoming. I would thoroughly recommend booking a table by the fire 🔥

We booked a function room for a wake. We checked that it was dog friendly. Having booked for 20 people, when we arrived we were put in a very small area with seating for 12 outside the kitchen with staff serving food having to squeeze...

A great lunch with excellent food and service. Attentive cheerful service by two great staff. Thank you. We would visit again.

really nice food, they serve a mean Sunday lunch. All of my party were really impressed with the food. Thanks

We spent a fortnight near Marlborough and The Roebuck became our favourite pub. We enjoyed an excellent Sunday lunch and the mid week menu didn't disappoint. I can highly reccomend the fish pie, best I've ever eaten. Very friendly and well worth a visit.

4 of us plus dog lunched here last Saturday. We found a pleasant spot outside and confirmed our reservation. Helpful waitress speedily took drink orders. Draft Cornish cider was tasty. Good selection of hot food. The cod and chips was enormous. The fish pie was...

We had lunch here with friends this week and were pleased with our choice of venue. The staff were very attentive and the menu choices were varied and good.I had a Greek salad as a starter followed by ‘catch of the day’ - Sea Bream. My husband had soup of the day and steak and kidney pie - all delicious!Thank you to all at the Roebuck Inn - keep up the good work!

It had been a while since we last visited the Roebuck, we were pleasantly surprised. The quality of the food was excellent as was the ale. Will definitely be back.

On Saturday 29th August I tried to book a table only to be told there were non available! Odd really as there was only 3 couples in at the time (around 6pm) and further I wasn’t even asked what time I wanted to book for. However I accepted this and left. Later I called to see if they had a table for the next day (Sunday) to which I was offered a table and a time of 7pm. Lunchtime Sunday I receive a phone call saying the booking is cancelled as they don’t serve food after 5pm on a Sunday!! So beware if you want to be sure of a table as you might be disappointed.

Not from the area, from up north. Excellent service, the food was also excellent. Large portions, right up my street, I had chicken pie, the wife had Thai curry, both meals were very good.

Out for a bit of lunch to meet up with family.The restaurant was nice and clean. Fairly busy but not uncomfortable . Staff were really nice. Food was really nice - we had a burger and the cod with chips. Plenty there and tasty. Couldn’t fault it.

First meal out after lockdown was a big success. Lovely staff, great food, nice atmosphere, good portions, high value, decent quality and now COVID safe with good one way system.

Just had a takeaway from The Roebuck... food was amazing, ready on time and still hot when I got home. With everything going on was lovely to see this local pub was still very busy with takeaway order.. good luck Gary & Gill

Lovely pub with a quirky layout. Great atmosphere with locals, and their dogs greeted by name. Sunday lunch menu was limited - three roasts, two fish options - so the long wait for our food was surprising. However, it was well worth it!Pub roasts are, more often than not, dry and heated up by copious amounts of gravy. This was fresh, piping hot throughout and the roast beef perfectly pink. Well worth the wait.

If you like a plateful, look no further. Quality was great for standard pub food.Beware ordering wine without the price list - New Zealand Sav Blanc £11.45 per glass- yes you read right.OK it was 250ml but could probably have bought 2 bottles of Oyster Bay in Sainsburys for that money

I waited 15 minutes for someone to arrive at the bar and then it took 30 minutes for the food to arrive after ordered. The food was not how I remembered and I think more staff is needed. Poor customer service.

Lovely food,excellent service we go there every week as it’s local to us the only bad thing is the dogs being allowed to be in the restaurant side when people are eating as some owners seem to think it’s ok to let there dogs roam and beg by your table .

I cannot believe how much this place has improved since I last visited a while ago. The food here is absolutely delicious, lots of choice and reasonably priced. They even do gluten free fish and chips with special gluten free batter, which I haven’t found in any other pubs yet. It was divine. The mushy peas as well are to die for. I don’t usually like them, but fell in love with them here and would have been happy with a huge bowl of them alone! Really friendly pub atmosphere as well and lovely warm log fire. Must visit, I will be coming back. Thank you so much

We had a wonderful time at the Roebuck with a laugh with Gill and her staff, It's great to be looked after by people who really enjoy what they do, The three of us had various starters and main courses, I had the mussels ( the best I have had in the UK ) with white wine, garlic, coriander and cream, followed by fillet steak with peppercorn sauce and all the trimmings, The varied meals we had where all Excellent, The beers and wines where also brilliant, We would highly recommend anyone who would like Great food, service and a Homely atmosphere, with a menu to suit all taste buds, to book in advance, Because the reputation the Roebuck is gaining means they can be quite busy,

Visiting Marlborough with a friend and was recommended to try The Roebuck for lunch. We booked for 2pm but got so lost in time wandering the high street that we had to push it back a tad. Nothing was too much trouble for them and our lunch we certainly worth the wait. We both had lamb with all the trimmings and it was absolutely perfect. Would definitely recommend a visit and we will definitely be going back. Excellent food and excellent service 10/10

Just been for a gorgeous Sunday lunch. I have to agree with others-the gravy was the best! Good portion sizes. Just like a home-cooked meal.

This was a stop for dinner whilst travelling, and the welcome we received upon entering was extremely warm, and we were given undivided attention along with a friendly smile!The menu was varied and the food divine, we couldn't have been happier and there were no issues whatsoever. Apart from not having room for dessert, but that's not the fault of the pub.Definitely somewhere I'd recommend visiting!

Visited the pub after a long days drive. We were too late for the Sunday lunch but the staff were kind enough to share some Yorkshire pudding, roastees and the best gravy ever. Great pub.

We ate here on the way back from a trip to Dorset. Great basic pub food but what really stood out was the enthusiasm of the staff. We were made to feel really welcome. Whilst the menu is fairly basic our food was hot and tasty and totally hit the spot.

We stopped for lunch part-way through a longer trip and chose the Roebuck because of its location and online menu. The staff were very helpful and allowed a fussy colleague to change her meal to avoid several things. The portions were ample and the staff friendly and helpful.

Followed a recommendation to eat here and we were not disappointed at all. We all had a Sunday roast and everything was nicely cooked. The beef was medium, which was fine, but next time I will ask if I can have it rare. Excellent starters and then a good looking dessert menu but we were all too full to go that far. Good choice of beers and wines. Most people appeared to be locals and the atmosphere was really nice. The staff were all delightful. We will be back for sure.

My wife and I had heard that the couple who used to run one of the best restaurants in Poole - Harpoon Harry's - were running a pub in Marlborough. We were in the area and eventually tracked down Gary and Gill to The Roebuck. We popped in for lunch and my wife had moules and I opted for mackerel which Gary had caught the day before on one of his regular fishing trips to Dorset. Both meals were superb. We decided to book in at a local B&B; and return for dinner. Another excellent meal served in a real 'local' pub atmosphere. Poole's loss is certainly Marlborough's gain!

A tricky review in this case. The food, when it arrived, was excellent and attractively presented, however it took almost an hour to arrive - and with an under-10 in the party that is too long.

Fantastic food and a good price. We had the fish pie and the sausages, both of which were to die for! Service was flawless for what seemed like a really busy Monday evening. We’ll be back for sure!

We stopped here for Sunday lunch as it had good reviews. Although we hadn't booked they were able to accommodate us.Good food, good service.

Driving through on the A4 looking for somewhere to have lunch and saw the sign.

Stopped here while walking from the forest, really nice inside and very friendly staff, only stopped for a drink on what was a very hot day but food also looked very good. Only niggle was the cost of the drinks being on pricy side i.e guest Ale was over £4 per pint for a 3.6% Ale. Thats not the best value even compared to other venues in Marlborough but good to see them supporting the local berwery at Ramsbury. All in all enjoyed the visit and will return again for food in the future.

Group of us booked last week. A bad start to the evening as, despite this being a Fuller's pub, they had run out of London Pride! The replacement Ale was fine, but not London Pride. The staff were very friendly, though there was a further setback when we ordered as they had run out of the vegetarian special (it was only 7.00pm). I would not recommend this restaurant to vegans or vegetarians as there was very little on offer. My wife prefers to eat vegan or vegetarian but was forced to have a seafood starter followed by a fish main course.

We went here for my mother in law's birthday. I can't fault the food, the lamb was amazing and I'm told the beef was the same. It's nice to have a proper home cooked lunch..

The Roebuck held a surprise 40th birthday party at my request. They were in regular contact to organise food, music & decorations. The buffet was fantastic. It was good quality food and they decorated the pub for me as I live so far away and was unable to do it myself. Overall the service was outstanding. Thank you so much to you all!

My better half and I went to The Roebuck as we were struggling to find that properly traditional Sunday roast dinner. Nothing fancy, nothing where the chef tries too hard, just concentrates on making good ingredients taste great.

Tried this pub again under new owners and it has much improved, food was good but as it was busy the service was pretty slow, will try again to see if our food arrives without the long wait,all staff were good and did apologize..tried the takeaway fish and chips which were good but would say order prior to going to save the waiting.

The Lovely new owners Gary and Gill are fantastic. The food is amazing and service was brilliant! Very busy which is a reflection on how nice it is. Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again soon

We had Sunday lunch here. There were lots of seating areas, some standard, but some cosy, especially the area with big squashy sofas. The staff were efficient and friendly. Six of us had the Sunday Roast, but tried beef, lamb or pork, which were all enjoyed. I had fishpie, which was OK, but there was more potato than anything else, and I should have had the roast!

New management - Gill and Gary - decided to open for Christmas Lunch. Glad we went - 10 adults and 5 assorted children. Service was happy and smiling. A bit slow but that was simply down to being extra busy. Food was grand with generous portions especially the various meats. Will be eating there again soon. May even become a regular. Would recommend to anyone. Good value. I expect the regular menu will be honest, wholesome pub grub. Go see for yourself.

Had lunch here just after Xmas. Had booked a table which was good as the dining area was full (the bar area was relatively empty). The atmosphere was good and not too noisy despite being full of large groups. We were seated fairly promptly and given menus but it took some time to take our orders and the first course only arrived after 1 hour. The main course arrived 20 minutes later and we left without dessert 1 hour 45 minutes after arriving, so a good thing we were not in a hurry. It took 10 minutes for an extra round of bread to arrive. Drinks, however, arrived, very quickly. The staff were friendly enough but the kitchen was obviously struggling. Having said that, the food was excellent, just right for a basic pub meal

Came here for a group midweek lunch. It was quite busy and noisy due to run up to Christmas. The Brie starters were lovely and main courses were fine. The pudding was not great at all- the pavlova seemed to be a supermarket bought meringue with frozen fruit which was v sickly. The service was ok and staff were nice, though we had to ask for cutlery, salt and pepper, and our roasts were going cold by the time the vegetables came out. Also they hadn’t noted that one of the meals was supposed to be gluten free. Price was reasonable, though we came away feeling they could have done a bit better.

Discovered that Gill and Gary who were previously at Bow Belles had moved here. As usual the Sunday lunch that they served was excellent and of a very high quality. A bit of wait as the place was rammed even at 3.00pm. My only issue is that there was only one red sub £20 which may be a bit steep for a pub.

Chose this place as it rated high on Tripadvisor. Marlbourgh seemed a good halfway point just off the M4 to meet with friends for Sunday lunch. A great choice. Totally felt like a home cooked roast. Good service went at a nice leisurely pace. Just about forced a huge portion of apple crumble and custard in for desserts. Dog and child friendly. I will return and would recommend to anybody coming off the M4 in search of good food. Nice walk into the town.

Had a wonderful and tasty Christmas dinner at The Roebuck on Saturday night. Lovely meal - turkey with all the trimmings and cheese afterwards - whilst my friend had the cheesecake for dessert. Really enjoyed it as did everyone else in the pub as it was full and the atmosphere excellent. All the staff were friendly, happy and really welcoming and working hard to make a great evening. Thanks again and we'll be back again soon....

Having not visited the pub for a good 20 years, met friends there for gift swap and a meal.

Arrived for a pre-arranged Sunday lunch. Didn't look anything special from the outside, but pub was obviously packed, fully booked and busy. Staff were super-friendly, made sure we were happy, extremely attentive - to the extent of offering extra gravy when they noticed one of us could use some, checking we were OK for drinks etc. I had a decent fish and chips, but with some yorkshire pudding-envy on seeing my friends' plates. Recommended.

New staff, new chef? Gone is the innovative menu, now standard pub grub. Two of us had fish and chips, over cooked chips that were luke warm. One had the broccoli and chestnut pie with beans and potatoes. The surprise was the amount of goats cheese and pepper in the pie. The veg tasted like they had been warmed up from yesterday. The pie was hot unlike anything else we ate. The prices were high too. Really very disappointing. £12.95 for the main courses.

I visited for lunch having been there a few times. I hadn't asked in advance & as a gluten free vegan, the most I usually hope for is salad with the occasional chips. I was brought out a lovely stuffed mushroom with roasted veg, decent salad & chips, despite none of it being on the menu. My aunt also really enjoyed her mussels. Couldn't fault the waiting staff either. Will be back soon

Three of us for Sunday lunch, the pub was busy so there was a little wait before our order was taken. A set lunch menu but a good selection. We ordered starters, then Roast Beef, Roast Lamb and Roast Pork - all came with Yorkshire Puds. The veg arrived and it was stone cold, we did complain and the waitress duly changed it and apologised that the wrong dish had been picked up and the one we had hadn’t been heated up! Apart from that the food was delicious. We also had puds which were lovely as you can see from the photos I have attached. Will definitely eat here again as it was good quality and well presented. Service was pleasant to.

A friend suggested meeting at the Roebuck (great location in the A4) for lunch and I was very pleasantly surprised.

Six of us visited for lunch before watching a school rugby match at Marlborough College

We went here for lunch on a blustery autumn day, the pub was nice and warm with a open fire we sat in the bar area it was quite busy but had a nice atmosphere, we went with our eldest son and took the three dogs. I had a good pint of London Pride my wife had a good sized glass of local Ramsbury gin and Tonic.

A FAMILY DINNER- excellent Pride ale and good food at reasonable prices - so this place is a family favourite

Very accommodating. Delicious beef, yummy Yorkshire. Veg a bit underdone for my liking, but thoroughly enjoyed it.

We turned up without a reservation and the staff found us a table on a very business Sunday! Great service and good Sunday lunch!

Have visited the Roebuck many times in the last 30 years. It was probably at its best the other evening. I’m sure the weather and the flowing cider had something with it 😉 friendly locals, great outdoor space. Free cheesy chip to boot.

Ok - lived in Marlborough for many years. No one has managed to make this place ‘work’ for many of these years. Will took over just over 2 years ago and has transformed the place. Food is great. Beer is great and it’s now a lively thriving place...

This country pub serves incredible food, changes the menu regularly and has a lovely vibe to dine in. Really would recommend to anyone coming to Marlborough. So yummy!

This pub was a delight to visit and that was obvious from the moment we walked through the door. We had our dog, Casper, with us. No problem, sit wherever you like - no ‘no go’ areas for our canine friends.

Great food..Great service and good value. The beef is to die for and all from friendly staff..would highly recommend
