The Roebuck Inn in Selby - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

As close to The Moon Under Water as it’s possible to get. Magnificent wet pub, with three fires going in winter and a guaranteed warm-welcome and friendly chat with strangers at all times. No phones or music, just the warm buzz of lively conversation. Truly stunning pub.

Lovely traditional country pub, cosy with open fires, great value beers.

This is probably the best Sam Smith's boozer around the York area. A lot of the challengers are shut now, sadly. This pub, flys the flag for how a traditional Sam's watering house should be. Two lovely, local lasses behind the bar. Jo and Amanda. Keeping the place top notch. Beer on point always. Friendly conversation and an acceptance for anyone in there, who wants to converese about any range of subject. I get the feeling both ladies do it more for the love of the pub and the community the pub supports. Rather than any wage or financial advancement. Been great working this year in Appleton Roebuck with this pub opening for a pint after hard days graft. Thurs, Fri. Dan. Gardener

Stopped in here for a quick drink while out for a walk on an autumn day. Such a lovely welcome and atmosphere. We enjoyed the open fire too!

First time at this Pub. What a thoroughly lovely Landlady. Proper English Pub will pop in again.

Probably one of the nicest most serene pints I've ever had. Friendly staff, lovely pub and fantastic beer garden. Great value too, will certainly return.

Close by to family camp sites but no access for kids or dogs... Poor form!

Great pub with friendly staff - a good pint of Pure brewed lager..FAB!

No kids or dogs welcome. No good for a family of 5 ☹️

Notice on the door stating that they have a no family policy and families are to make use of the beer garden only - not ideal in winter! If you have a family I would recommend you avoid all Samuel Smiths pubs to avoid an embarrassing rejection from any of their pubs.

A real pub with price's that will make you feel guilty for just having one.

I live near Wakefield but have be going to the Roebuck for over 30yrs. It has always had a warm welcoming atmosphere and we are all delighted that it re opened earlier this year. Thank you Joanne and Mandy 😃xx

Friendly Sam Smiths village pub. Log fires on in 2 rooms nice and cosy. Dart board available. Typical Sams... I like it but not for everyone. Nice pint of Old Brewery.

Lovely pub, needs to open more 😀

Sam Smith's classic old country pub, but no real ale and only Sam Smith products. No phones or music allowed inside so you have the phone users hanging out with the smokers outside

The pub itself is nice and very reasonably priced, but the brewery appears to demand that they only take cash and that customers aren't allowed to use their phones in the pub. No food and only open for 4 days a week. Sadly, a missed opportunity.

Proper country pub. Sam Smith's prices. Dark Mild at £1.34 a pint for nominated drivers. Authentic beams and a cracking cast iron range for winter evenings. What's not to like. Now open after a long hiatus but only Thurs/Friday/Saturday so you need to check

Could be such a village magnet. It's a drinkers pub, limited selection of beers . No food at all just nuts and crisps. Crying shame 😢

I suppose you know what you're getting when you go into a Sam's pub, staff were very friendly and helpful. I get sign saying that no mobile phones, but how do you stop "receiving text messages" Another pub ruined by Humphrey

Great atmosphere and positively stunning food.

Really nice loved it will go again no problem. If you book and don't turn up you are not a nice person. Give someone else a chance.

Lovely pub food atmosphere a typical lovely yorkshire village chocolate box

We passed through Roebuck-Selby whilst touring in the area - a flat farming community. There wasn’t a soul on the streets and we weren’t sure the place was even open, despite the “Food being Served” sign outside. However, when somone parked his landrover outside and entered we decided to follow suit. We were greeted warmly but just decided to have drinks and enjoy the weak sunshine in the beer garden. Use of mobile phones were discouraged, as this is a Sam Smith’s pub, but maybe no bad thing?. The drinks were amazingly cheap and staff friendly but we had to get back on the road – not so much to do in this town it seems.

Food not bad friendly approach needed by bar staff

Nice food, but limited bar options and no card facility means unlikely to return.

Love the Roebuck lnn always friendly staff and lovely food cant put picture no mobiles Allowed

Excellent food in this establishment would definitely recommend it we will be going again shortly 👍👍👍👍👍

Love this pub proper old fashioned,great beer great food nice staff and good prices.

Sam Smith's pub. Beer not particularly good and no guests, but it is cheap. Cash only.

Staying over one night in Appleton Roebuck and decided to call in for our evening meal.2 chose the beef lasagne,which both said was Fab,the other 2 said their meal was Fab.I had the liver,which came with 'proper' chips,3 veggies and a lusciously thick onion gravy,this too was Fab.The meals are sensibly priced,as are the drinks;£2 for a pint of Sam Smiths bitter.Outside at the back of the pub is a beer garden + a small grassed football pitch complete with goalposts & nets,great for the kids to have a kick around.Emma the landlady & family along with the local guys we got talking to are absolutely fantastic,we were made so very very welcome. #anighttoremember. I would not hesitate to recommend.

This was a cheap and decent pint. Being a Sam Smiths pub there are various rule regarding technology inside the pub.

Fantastic place. Great people!!

Not good jim can't be arsed voting brexit party

Great prices and good home made grub

Good beer, good prices, convivial atmosphere. Great staff.

Traditional pub with great beer and a friendly atmosphere

We’re on holiday staying across the road and delighted in discovering a pub 10 yards from the front door. Even better - there’s good beer, good welcome and good surroundings to have a blether and catch up with friends. I love English pubs and this place is a great example of why :)

Very nice meal and good value for money

Called in for the first time - excellent pint of Sam Smith’s old brewery bitter. Food excellent, nicely presented, very good value. Friendly staff - a nice lunch time all round.

A charming olde worlde pub. Food was home cooked and ample portion.

'Its a great country pub." It is small, friendly and oldy-worldy... This is a 'gem' and is well worth a visit. Lee and Emma will make you feel welcome... Have known the pub for about 16 years. Tip: Nuzzle up next to the Yorkshire Range, if its a chilly night. Or in summer, as it is now, catch the tail of the Scarecrow Festival if you can...

What can we say about this pub.great food and really nice staff

Nice friendly little village, today was scarecrow day and had lots of people looking and judging the best one's

Nice cosy country pub. Great staff.

Amazing couple running this gorgeous country pub with a great pool table and excellent beer

Friendly staff and Emma the land lady serves fab meals.

Good cheap and staff all nice including lee

Frienfy service great food at a great price and decent ales can't go wrong

Good pub fantasic food one of our favourites

Had a lovely meal here on sat afternoon, would definitely recommend and go back again

Brilliant Sunday lunch would definitely recommend a visit

£1.34 for a pint of dark mild! That's right - £1.34! For a pint of beer. This week. In England. One pound and thirty four pence. There should be a prize or an award or something. A round, with nuts, for four adults and four kids cost me less than £20! I live in a sad, impoverished, grabbing world where £20 wouldn't buy you the drinks for the 4 adults and I bitterly regret that we were only passing through and didn't have the time to go back. This is what pubs used to be; landlady and locals were all very welcoming and everyone just got on with talking and having a nice time. No worries about taking out a mortgage to get a round in, no "concept" to try and work out. It could probably do with a bit of a renovation but then it would just be like any other pub - leave it as it is! Didn't eat - wrong time of day but it was recommended by people where we were staying although there was no food on the day we were there (Monday) I could happily have just lived on the beer at £1.34 a pint. I don't know how they make the finances work but everyone on the country should be forced to go here just to see what "the Pub" was like and should be again!!
