The Roseycombe in Rugby

Great food, friendly staff! Need I say more?

We were staying at the coombe abby for are 25th anniversary and we booked a table with you We placed our order it was 50 minutes before anyone had noticed we had not even recived our starter. The starter was ok the main meal was completely inedible just wanted to leave will not return or recommend to anyone

We had lunch yesterday as a birthday lunch for my mother in law, we were greated with a smile and shown promptly to a lovely table, orders were taken, unfortunately its when the food arrived that things went down hill, my husband had new York chicken which was very over cooked and very small. And the birthday girl who has a small appetite had a lighter lunch the yorkshire pudding with chicken and vegetables, the chicken was so well done she struggled to cut it let alone eat it. Very disappointed after what seemed like a good start.

Loved this restaurant! Food was delicious and amazing value! Service was brilliant. Although it was too cold for outside this weekend, the beer garden looks fantastic plenty of seating, looking onto a big field, fairy lights were so pretty!

Fabulous food, a lot of new staff being trained but all were polite and ready to learn.

The staff are Amazing, always very welcoming, and kind & helpful in everyway. The good is lovely too.

Great to see a refurbished Roseycombe. Staff very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the special lunchtime deal - the fish znd chips were tasty.

I was there few times before was shut down for few months. I was sad when I found out that as that was a good pub with tasty food. This weekend I was celebrating my birthday. My partner asked me to choose a place for a lunch and I choose Roseycombe as I knew that they reopened under new management and I was curious how they cope. That was a good choice. I was not disappointed. We arrived just after they opened and they've got already many customers inside what was a good sign. Me and my partner decided to try Sunday Roast Carvery. That was delicious! And I could put on plate as much vegetables as I wanted. After such a huge meal I found a space for a dessert and I ordered Tiramisu. Design, cleanliness in restaurant, sitting area, service, people working there , prices of meals etc I can rate for 5 starts. (The only one minus was lack of any soap in the toilet so I could wash my hands only with water). I will definitely come back there and try different meals. I'm so happy that they reopened and do fantastic job. I'm sure that they've got many customers who are as happy as me and who visit them regularly. I can highly recommend this pub.

Really glad I visited excellent food and friendly service

I came to the pub for dinner with family, around 5.30pm. We hadn't booked a table. The restaurant was empty on arrival. The man and woman hosting weren't very friendly and told us there were no tables available in the restaurant but we could sit in the bar. She said even though it was empty now it would be busy later. I was with my toddler and said we'd be quick but she just brushed me off. They took us to a table in the bar which was right in front of a group of drunk men shouting and swearing loudly. After a few minutes I went and asked the lady if we could please move to one of the empty tables as it was super noisy, she abruptly told me no and said it would also be noisy in the restaurant later. I didn't enjoy the experience unfortunately because of where we were sat. There were plenty of empty tables and we would have happily made sure we left before 7pm. We just wanted a pleasant quick meal with family, before my son's bedtime. The food was brought out by a teenage boy, with zero personality. He didn't bring any cutlery and I had to ask twice, then go and find him before our food went cold. Noone asked us how our meals were. When we left there were empty tables in the restaurant, they could have easily accommodated us but they just didn't want to. We were treated poorly because we hadn't booked, even though we spent £100. Live locally and won't be returning unfortunately.

Absolutely perfect 👌🏻 highly recommend this place,quality food and service.........will be returning soon.

Top quality food, at very reasonable prices. Great range of options to choose from. Staff were attentive and welcoming. Thus must be my 4th visit since the re-opening, and it's worth a visit. Lovely to have a good local pub back in the area. Well done all!!

Much improved from the last time I visited, which was many years ago. I went at lunchtime, and being a vegetarian, the food was excellent and very tasty. A good varied menu with good prices, not overly expensive.

Tina was fabulous, very attentive and helpful. We will be back xxx

Choice of food was good, quality and speed of service was excellent. Would recommend to a friend…

Really looked after by Tina particularly as we were a very late booking. Thank you

Late lunch today 3Pm at the Rosie Combe disappointed that our meals had been warmed up from lunchtime didn't think this establishment would have done that

Absolutely wonderful lunch. I would highly recommend this wonderful place. Great good and service, the chefs are doing the most amazing job in dishing up such gorgeous food

First time visiting the Roseycombe and the atmosphere was fantastic, a real homey community vibe. All the staff were fantastic, attentive, helpful. We were served by Izzy and she was extremely friendly and chatty and her service was great! Overall a wonderful experience at the Roseycombe, the food was spectacular and fresh and nothing was left on our plates! And their plant based menu has a good amount of options on as well which is difficult to find in pubs these days! 10/10. Will absolutely be visiting again soon!

Food, atmosphere aswell as the bubby Aleks & Izzy made our 1st time visit exceptional 😊 will definitely be returning very soon. Well done Team 😊 thank you

First time at pub, differently won't be the last. Food excellent, staff helpful and very pleasant. We would always book, haven't seen a pub this busy before at dinner time.

Fantastic food, excellent choice of drinks. Friendly, attentive staff. The menu really has a good choice of fabulous meals 🍽 😋 We're definitely returning 👍

Tina was very courteous & polite … really enjoyed the experience

Would just like to compliment you on the lovely staff you have working there, that are such a credit and a big thank you to a wonderful amazing young Lady called Renai of whom I had the pleasure of meeting and who Loves her Job and is very dedicated, what a refreshing change these days. Had a wonderful evening and will be returning very soon. Thank you

Excellent food service and staff highly recommend. Have already book for Sunday lunch thank you xx

Celebrating a friends 60th birthday, food, service, staff and atmosphere were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for Tina and her team, thank you for making the evening so special

Me and my wife went in saturday evening around 5:30 we were only staying for 1 drink. All the tables in the bar area were reserved so i asked the girl who was serving us where can we sit she said anywhere without a reserved sign on. So me and my wife sat down then some person came up and told us we had to move as this a resturant bearing in mind the place was empty. We asked where we can sit just stand at the bar he said his attitude was discusting we eventually got our money back . What makes it worse ive heard lots of bad reports about the place

Visited for the first time for dinner. All our meals and drinks were lovely, attentive staff, and seated in bar area with our dog but didn't feel like a bar area as it was cosy and busy. Will definitely add to our list of good dog friendly pubs!

Excellent service, food was amazing. We had a wonderful evening for our friends 60th birthday 🥳

We popped in by chance on the way through Binley Woods at lunchtime on valentines day. The place was packed, however they managed to accommodate us within 10 minutes. The menu is extensive and very reasonably priced. Myself and my mum had the giant Yorkshire pudding, which was beautiful and my dad had a steak which was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was lovely with a great buzz about the place. Can't wait for the summer when the outdoor bar is open and the views across the fields will be awesome. Big shout out to Tina our waitress who went above & beyond to make sure we had everything we needed & also came over for a chat about the mighty Sky Blues🩵 Hopefully I'll see you soon at the CBS Arena🩵

Had a cracking meal with the family—proper tasty, no messing about. Big portions too, none of this fancy nonsense where you need a magnifying glass to see your dinner! Beer and wine were great. The staff were lovely proper friendly, like they actually wanted to be there. All in all, a great meal and will definitely be back

I learned about RoseyCombe only a couple of weeks ago after recommendations from friends who had already visited. To see what all the hype was about, I booked a table on 09/02/2025 for me and my wife. My first impressions were that the outside of the building looked very neat and that there were plenty of car parking spaces. Once inside, it was very busy for a Sunday but on checking in we were escorted to our table and before we had even sat down, a cheerful waiter wasted no time in taking our drinks orders and food orders in quick succession. The interior decor was very cosy and inviting. The carvery that my wife had and what I chose from the menu was a perfect start to our Sunday afternoon lunch. This place ( I was told) does get busy which speaks volumes about its popularity. All in all a great couple of hours spent at this place.

Firstly the staff are amazing, attentive, serve at the table and all super friendly!! They made our night last night what a great team! We have eaten here 3/4 times now, absolutely great service they have built a great team. The food on all occasions was good value and we will continue to return. Excellent for disabled guests and dogs too. The only thing i would recommend them to do is review their white wine list, each time the white wine drinkers have been disappointed, reviewing this would make the new pub perfect, good value wine to match their great service and good vale food.

Lovely food! Tina was excellent

We both had the carvery on 9th February, one regular and one large. We can't complain about the portion sizes but felt there was a herb overload. The meats all had sprinkles of herbs and the roast potatoes were heavily covered. The meats and all vegetables were cooked perfectly, we just felt that there was way too much herb coverage.

A lovely sunday for dinner, cavery was lovely, as was the lasagne, the childrens food of macaroni cheese & homemade fish fingers. Excellent service & beauitful atmosphere. Staff really friendly with everyone & our granddaughter.

I and a couple of mates tried out the rosycombe now reopened-Cracking food/service and a delightful pint-Great job Team rosycombe...Great to see you back open-Will revisit for a carvery with the grankids as the reviews are decent -Forgot to say £24 per head-Main and two pints-pritty decent we all thought

Great place to visit, excellent choice of menu, a whole gluten free menu too, that also had vegan options! Beautuful view across the fields, I would imagine be great in the summer, as there was plenty of good outdoor seating. Will be going back to sample the Sunday lunch! Book a table, as was very busy, which is good, adding to the atmosphere.

I went with 3 friends for Lunch - we wanted to try it after its re-opened. We used to go regularly when the previous owners were there and we always loved the food, the service and the staff that were there. When we arrived at the Pub a Food Delivery Lorry was arriving - this should have been a clue that unlike the previous owners who served mostly Homemade Food that most of the Food is probably shipped in on a Lorry. The 4 of us octogenarians all have mobility problems. But we consider ourselves young at heart. As we don’t have large appetites we opted for the Lighter Bites Menu @ £16.95 for 2 people. We all had something different to eat. I opted for the Fish & Chips with Mushy Peas. The food arrived and we all started to tuck in. My tiny piece of Fish was luke warm, but the Batter wasn’t a light golden colour that should melt in the mouth, instead the Batter was thick dark and crusty. My Chips were cold and some of them were burnt - I think they must have been in the Fryer already when they added more Chips. The Mushy Peas looked nice on inspection but there’s nothing less appetising than Stone Cold Mushy Peas. I ate the Fish and a couple of the Chips but left all the rest of my food. The Lighter Bite Portions were well named as they were scarce and tiny. One friend has the Yorkshire Pudding with Roast Beef - she said that though it was lukewarm warm at least it was tasty. My friends all said that their food was barely warm, but they ate it as they were hungry. When the Waitress came to take away the plates she could see I’d left most of my food - she asked if everything was alright with my food and I told her it certainly was not! I said that my meal was cold and inedible. My 3 friends also said that their meals were barely warm though their food tasted OK. The Waitress said she’d get the duty Manager over to speak to us. He came over to talk to us and asked what the problem was - I told him in no uncertain terms what I thought of the food and the fact that my meal was cold, whilst my friends meals were only Luke Warm! He apologised and made the excuse that as the place was busy it can happen - I found his answer unexceptionable.. my friends were still hungry and wanted a dessert - so The Manager gave us the Menus and in view of our complaints he said that the desserts would be free. The Desserts were actually quite nice - though I’ve never had Tiramisu with Vodka in it before. The Staff were pleasant which was probably the only reason I didn’t walk out. I certainly wouldn’t ever go there again to eat. When the previous owners were there we loved the food and we went often.

Absolutely great food at a reasonable price. Two small issues spoilt the overall experience. 1 On our first visit the chair I was sat on for my meal was wet, unfortunately I did not notice this until after my meal when I moved in my seat. My trousers were quite wet but this was just laughed off by the staff with only a small apology. On the second occasion we visited the barman spilt my Guinness OO but because it was a can he was unable to top it up. Again it was just laughed off. This time no apology. Good job the food was good or I would have made a real fuss.

Great food, lovely friendly staff, fab surroundings. My mini fish and chips was too big for me. The fish was delicious with a nice light batter, chips that looked like they were triple cooked and were lush. Tina our server was a delight, she took time to explain how everything worked, from drinks to food to paying, made it all so easy for us

3rd time visiting recently! The latest, a lunch, with 2 friends who hadn't been before. Overall opinion from all of us was great choice of food, friendly service & we'll go again.

Lovely food definitely recommend will make it my go to pub excellent 👍

Really lovely food and service- good value too!!

All I can say for everything is “Excellent “, food, service, staff, ambience, what everyone wants from a restaurant .

Carvery absolutely superb, great choice of vegetables,. Decent slices of meat, not wafer thin as seems to be the norm in some establishments. Definitely return again and definitely recommend

Booked a table for 11 to celebrate our mum being well again after spending 3 weeks over christmas in hospital, was shown to 2 separate tables with a wall in between in them in a small conservatory with 40 people celebrating a 50th birthday. It was the loudest, most stressful meal out of my life. We could not hear each other at all and the children were totally overwhelmed by the noise.The 50th birthday were clearly enjoying themselved (as they should) but the language was not suitable for the 5 children under 9 we had with us. The man showing us to the table seemed totally unbothered about the situation, which is frustrating as I would have much rather resolved the problem there and then, than leave a poor review.

We will definitely be coming back, couldn't fault the food. A great atmosphere and fab staff.

Have been twice for food now as we enjoyed our first visit so much. Even better this time, I had the camembert chicken which was absolutely delicious and so succulent. Skin on fries were tasty as was the salad which had a lovely dressing. The service is excellent and the price very reasonable too. Will definitely be back.

We booked for the opening night of food for my step daughters 10th birthday and it was superb. We live locally and so happy the pub has been refurbished with a great drink and food selection. The service from start to finish was faultless, the food was faultless and the pub was packed. Lovely little touch with a birthday balloon as well. Back next week for my other step daughters 8th birthday 😅. Thanks all.

Had a great first lunch meal at the Roseycoombe today. Lovely refurb inside and out. Service was great and food was fresh, tasted great and didn’t take long to arrive. Great 2 for £16.95 offer for lunch menu 👍 and my biscoff hot chocolate was a hit! 😋

The New York chicken was fantastic and presented very nicely. I can’t wait to try more off the menu.

Went for lunch today on their first day of serving food. The atmosphere in there is great. We've been in for drinks a couple of times since the reopening. We were both so impressed. They've upgraded it and given it a lovely country pub vibe. We were served by Izzy today and she was brilliant. Friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the menu. We struggled to pick as everything sounded so good on the menu. Izzy's recommendations were spot on. We had the Tuxford chicken, Posh Pigs in blankets and cheesy garlic bread. We were so impressed. The presentation was beautiful. The portion size was great and it was all delicious!!! We can't wait to go back and try more!

Just reopened. Service slow. Excellent atmosphere. Definitely recommend. Definitely returning.

Unfortunately this place is now closed for the near future

My first and last lunch today at the Roseycombe. It was excellent. Just sorry won't have opportunity to visit again

Great staff, food and value. The steak and ale pie was really nice as other reviews have said

Staff is very pleasant and welcoming

Everyday "run of the mill pub" more about drinking than eating. With a local clientele.

Excellent food and service Food is home cooked. Friendly staff

I can only strongly recommend the Roseycombe which I have enjoyed for many many years. The food is home cooked and the staff are great. The prices are more than reasonable and Alma is a wonderful host. Ten out of ten.

I was always happy to attend this old established venue and it has been quite a number of years since I did. On this occasion it felt like coming home. The welcome was extremely good and the service and food second to none. I don't think I will leave it quite so long before I visit again. I would definitely recommend it.

Didn't eat but what i saw coming out of kitchen looked good. Wed night quiz well attended, great service, good beer

Very nice 👌 and good service 👍 and friendly

Lovely little place and the food is wholesome , hot, and delicious 😋. It is best to book and pre-order where possible as they use local butchers and could run out, you wouldn't be disappointed. Spot on most of the time 😀

Went here for an evening meal, we hadn't booked but they still fitted us in. The food was really lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The price was really good. Highly recommend 😊 the peppered chicken and lasagne were very tasty 😋

Great place,with quality food and very helpful friendly staff.

Good food, good beer and a great place to spend a few hours in the garden on a sunny day.

Food was dry and not very nice. The desert was better then the main, staff was lovely and helpful Soon as we walked in we felt like we didn't belong

Friendly, helpful staff where we had a traditional Sunday lunch. Well prepared and tasty, though the beef was a little chewy. Not too pricey for the overall quality.

Popped in first time. Prices are up but this is explained on a slip on the menu. (Same everywhere these days). Was very busy so was a bit of a wait, but food was good quality and served hot. Staff friendly. Was a garden /grass area out the back for kids to stretch legs which was a bonus. Tried the local procured cider which is served here and it was enjoyed. If in area again would like to come again.

The young staff members are really rude

Loved going back to an old haunt landlady still great

Good selection of beers, plenty of room.

Friendly staff, nice food at a fair price, a wine list would be nice.

A fantastic family run pub. Great garden. Good food when it's on. Would recommend

Quick meal before a rugby match. Service was very friendly and efficient. Nice pint of Bass. Food was good and reasonably priced. Not amazing but decent pub grub. Would come again if I was in the area.

It's never open despite publishing opening times.

Great food and service and value for money even when a large group

Have been for a meal here tonight, and was so impressed. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and attentive, and the food was proper home cooked style, and absolutely delicious. Good value and nice atmosphere. I will definitely be returning.

Lovely meal and the staff are very friendly. Will definitely be going back.

Have dined at the Roseycoombe many times. It is my first choice for eating out. Alma and staff are delightful, always ready to oblige. Will be there again soon. Tha k you Alma.

Went for lunch with our friends who live locally. The beer,service and food (steak and ale pie) were first class. Spotlessly clean tiolets.

Went on consecutive nights, each time a warm welcome and a superb meal, the whitebait starter HUGE! I occasionally travel some distance to work in Coventry and I shall make this pub a definite each time.

Attended a birthday party. Staff were lovely and friendly. A fabulous buffet provided by the pub, with a great variety of foods. Had a very enjoyable evening.

Found the food and service excellent, could not fault cleanliness

Great place. Staff are so friendly, food is very tasty, menu is varied and our party of 7 had no complaints at all.

Ashamed to admit that The Roseycombe wasn't our first choice but they definitely will be next time. We were let down by another pub for a party for 30 people 3 hours before we had guests arriving. We frantically rang to see if The Roseycombe could accommodate a substantial group and such late notice and they agreed. Wow.....the staff were so friendly and helpful, the food was beautiful and we had a fantastic evening. We honestly can not thank them enough

We had our team Christmas lunch (group of 15) at the Roseycombe today and the team here couldn’t have been more welcoming and accommodating. Everyone really enjoyed the food and the portions size were great. Thank you again!

Friendly, spacious, good atmosphere. Excellent food and beer and great value. Best cod I’ve eaten in a long, long time! Thanks for a lovely evening 😊

Fantastic food... Pies are amaziing

Run down decor & the pint of john smiths served 2 me was only just drinkable.this used 2 b such a nice pub 2 visit.

Good food good value and good service

Fantastic food and service. Can't wait to go back.

Nice quiet pub,nice beer,bit on the expensive side but you have to expect that, haven't tried the food yet but it does smell really nice

As ever, lovely meal served by warm, welcoming staff. Always a pleasure to dine here

Awesome! Delicious homemade food, steak and ale pie with tender pieces of beef cooked to perfection, crispy flaky pastry served with fresh vegetables and chips. 👌🏻👌🏻 Very friendly, helpful staff. I’ll be back. Cheers

Nice place, beautiful garden. Good service! Well done, well deserved a 5 star!

First visit to the Rosey for many years and wasn't disappointed. Came with my sister and 4 cousins for lunch. Nice varied menu to please everyone plus daily specials. We all had something different and all enjoyed both main and pudding. Staff were extremely obliging and friendly and also allowed us to enjoy our meal without continuous interruptions. We will certainly add the Rosey to our favourite list. Well done everyone.

Just taken the mums out for lunch, excellent food and the staff were very polite and friendly.
