The Rufford in Mansfield

Staff are really friendly and helpful and it was clean

First time here for a carvery and it didn't disappoint. Meats were cooked to perfection for me, roasties tasted amazing. Very reasonable priced for a Sunday carvery. Customer service was great especially on the carvery. Will be returning soon

Staff very friendly, food okay but slightly meagre portions. Peas hard and got a tablespoon at most.

Great pub quality food ,staff are great and very friendly

Just okay. Not keen on staff kicking all of the kids out at 9 - there were several family groups there with children. Went from a vibrant atmosphere (and almost a full pub) to dead and empty. Food was overpriced for what came and was not cooked as well as it ought to have been.

Visited for a friend's funeral, I live just around the corner so not far to walk. Staff are always pleasant and friendly and the service is also good.

All the staff we interacted with gave AMAZING service. Good choice of food Good prices Friendly staff 10 out of 10

Had a nice hour with my son lovely pint and a meal

Kenzie and Molly were absolutely fantastic, service with a smile and eager to help with whatever queries we had :)

We go here every week without fail as it's such a welcoming place and that's down to the staff. The food is also always very good as well, we've never had a bad meal here and we've been going for years. Tonight we went and it was nice to see 'The A-Team' on together as usually there's only two of them there when we go. But tonight Kenzie, Courtney & Molly were all on together and they were as attentive and as lovely as ever. If you genuinely care and value your staff you seriously need to give these three a pay rise. They always go above and beyond to make our visit special. We always take our dog and we don't even need to ask for water for him, one of them just fetch it. He also gets treats brought to him! Tonight he got offered leftover steak fat from the kitchen which was going to be thrown away, honestly it's no wonder he runs to the door when we say we're going to the pub! They don't stop even if the pub isn't busy, they're always running around doing something. One of them is usually on the floor behind the bar cleaning. We go to many places all over the country and there's nowhere that comes close to a visit here & that includes all the other Marston's pubs that we go to. Seriously if you're in the area you need to make time to pay them a visit.

Very nice meal . Everything fresh and Steak was cooked beautiful. It was melt in the mouth . Bar staff are lovely and always make us feel welcome. Doesn’t matter what time of day we visit , nothing is too much trouble.

Great staff lovely place we dropped in by accident , will come back

Molly and Kenzie were really helpful and attentive as always, we go here every week and they are always amazing. They are a big part of why we go here so often. The food was lovely and fresh again as well. 10/10.

Recommended. Great food, lovely staff. 10/10. Fantastic place.

Courtney and molly really made my night here, they were so professional but made me feel so comfortable and I had such a laugh with them. They had great personalities to have representing your business. Pints cheap and free pool night so can’t complain at all 5* all around on behalf of me and my two mates x

Molly and Courtney were such nice people and so friendly and we will all be back thank you guys. I also left my beanie by the pool table :(

I was served by Molly and Anna. The place was clean, tidy and the service was first class. The beautiful Molly couldn't do enough to help and even put a perfect shamrock on the top of my Guiness. Very reasonably priced, would definitely go again. Wooooooooo :)

We came in for a family birthday meal. The team was very helpful. Brought the cake our with candles and sang happy birthday. The food we had was delicious. It came out quickly and looked great. Everyone enjoyed our visit the staff members told us about the 30% offer to. So we signed up for this and got a discount to. We will definitely recommend the Rufford to everyone. It was also great to see that dogs are welcome. This made us very happy. We will be visiting again soon.

Fantastic friendly bar staff good beer and beautiful food service was excellent thankyou Kenzie and Molly x

Had some great food and made some great memories with the family here. Staff always make us feel welcome and we always have a laugh with them. All the team always go above and beyond for us and we couldn’t ask for anything more from them :)

The staff are the reason we keep coming back to this pub. You are always greeted with a smile and a friendly face. The food is fantastic and the selection of drinks on the bar is quite varied. Keep doing what you're doing guys. Special thanks to Molly and Kenzie, we had another great night

The food was lovely and was hot and came quickly after ordering. This was our first visit but definitely won’t be our last.

Amazing went for my grandads 80th everyone’s so friendly

Toni was fabulous! Exceptional service!

Sadly for much of the evening there was only 1 person taking all food and drink orders meaning a 15 minute wait at the bar to get a drink with the place less than 25% full. Several people gave up and left during this time. Staff that were there were trying their best and doing what they could.

Eat here a lot and every-time it’s been a pleasure no matter what staff are on they are lovely and polite and can’t do enough for you. The food is amazing the chefs do really well even when it’s busy to get food out it a good amount of time!

There is an awesome quiz on a Thursday night, we love it. The food is always lovely. The staff are amazing and always friendly.

Courtney and all the other staff are absolutely fantastic, can’t fault the service at all such a friendly, warm and welcoming team. Nothing is too much trouble highly recommend!

Very nice on a Sunday well imoroved since last owners. Very tastie an all fresh .

Very friendly staff, great atmosphere in bar area whilst providing a quieter eating area for those who prefer. Thoroughly enjoyed the food especially the pirri pirri wings. Pool table and outdoor children's play area. Overall great

Popped in for a visit with some family. The pub looked very clean and tidy. It's a big pub. With a great play area for kids when the weather warms up. They also allow dogs in to which is great. Food and drinks that webhad were lovely and the staff were very friendly. There is a qr code to scan for ordering to which means you dont need to leave your table. Would recommend the Rufford.

Friendly staff good value decent food
