The Spread Eagle in East Staffordshire

Excellent meal for my birthday celebrations with family. Very good and quick service and staff lovely. Would highly recommend.

I had a wonderful dining experience at the Spread Eagle with my father. Chef Matt's roast was outstanding. The service was excellent, with Sapphire, Zara W, and Rachel offering warm, attentive care that made the experience truly memorable. It’s a must-visit for anyone who appreciates great food and service!

Absolutely incredible service and great food. I am so impressed, from the warm welcome to the genuine goodbye and everything between. So amazing

Great food, great service, jo from the team was very attentive and did everything she could to make our visit enjoyable.

Had a fabulous lunch yesterday. Everything was well prepared and very tasty. The staff,as always, were brilliant. See you again soon

Great food , very family friendly , accommodating of two under fives at dinner . Staff friendly and lovely garden with seating

Excellent food and drinks, served by Faye who was extremely friendly and helpful, loved the service and food,had fish cakes and mash, use the pub regularly and will continue to do so, highly recommend 😌

Attended a Birthday party in the function room. Staff were absolutely amazing! Faye and Alice were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. They went above and beyond to make the party run smoothly and look after the guests. Exceptional service. The Food was delicious and beautifully presented. The function room was presented beautifully and perfect for a small gathering. Would highly recommend, not just for a function but also for the food, atmosphere and amazing service and such lovely staff. Such a lovely place!!

Had a lovely night with my friends, Zhavira our server was very friendly and nice! Food was amazing, would recommend and come back.

We hadn't revisited for a couple of years so decided on a last minute booking for Sunday roast and booked a table no problem. Then because it was sunny the family wanted to sit outside, a quick call and someone friendly on the end of the phone changed the booking for us without issue. We took our dog and there were bowls and water available to use for her, the other dogs there were all well behaved and not a nuisance to anyone despite it being busy. We ordered food via phone using the link on the table which was easy to do and all of our drinks and food came promptly and without issue. The food was beautiful, definitely one of the best roasts we've had out in a while! My daughter had two starters as mains, the prawns and the paté, my son had a burger, my husband and I had a roast. Couldn't fault one of them and when we asked for a bit more gravy it was again no problem. Then we ordered desserts the chocolate dome, sticky toffee and 2 creme brulee which again were all lovely. We enjoyed ourselves that much we enquired about booking a table for my daughters 18th birthday, the lady was really helpful and showed us their function room which is lovely and explained we could have a meal or buffet. Failing that we could reserve ordinary tables downstairs which is just as nice with a lovely atmosphere. I got in touch with them after we left via Facebook and the general manager got back to me promptly and was again really helpful. Will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone.

We had booked a family birthday meal for 12 people, on arrival we were told that the oven & grill were not working so all of our pre-orders weren't available! We chose alternatives and the staff and food was excellent, we have been before and we will be back, thank you.

I was expecting a bit better, having eaten here before and knowing that Rolleston customers are a bit discerning. I had a veggie burger which sounded great on the menu, with added halloumi fries on top. The burger didn’t really feel like a burger it was falling apart too much, would have been better with more sweet potato. The halloumi fries were lukewarm at best and quite dry, which made me think they weren’t quite fresh as when I do them myself they still have some moisture left. They were charred, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt, although one of them I definitely wouldn’t have sent out if I was in the kitchen. The staff seemed nice although we seemed to have been forgotten about when it came to paying. It was full so maybe it was just an off night but when my wife suggested that it could be just down to a different chef I reminded her of a different Vintage Inn we have been to where the quality is consistently high. I would go again but if I felt the same way again that would be the last time, at least for food, it has strong competition nearby in The Jinnie and plenty of other alternatives not far away.

Had a wonderful evening. Great food and atmosphere. Service was excellent. Waitress (Bethan) was always smiling, very informative and clearly takes pride in her work.

Came for a meal on a busy thursday evening and the service was perfect, drinks came in quick and efficient timing as well as the food, we were served by bethan and she was very accommodating and kind under the busy atmosphere - highly reccomend. Food was delicious and was very pleased with the waiting time.

Lovely lunch. Attentive, freindly service from Jo. The food was excellent! We'll be back again soon.

came in for a lovely meal on a busy thursday night, even though busy, the service was efficient. bethan served us and was lovely, very attentive and always ready to meet our needs. the food was delicious too. would definitely recommend.

Lovely friendly place to eat and drink. Served by Ceri who was very friendly and helpful with the menu. Had aubergine parmigiana which was absolutely delicious followed by honey pot dessert as recommended by Ceri. Would definitely recommend both menu choices and look forward to visiting again.

Excellent service, great food. I had ribeye steak, the wife had an aubergine dish, which we both thoroughly enjoyed. Ceri, our waitress was very welcoming & efficient, catering to our every needs. We s Will definitely be back again very soon.

Excellent customer service from several staff members and good quality food. As a party of 9, we were asked to pre-order our food, this meant we were able to sit and enjoy drinks when we arrived while they prepared our food. We all enjoyed the food, including the three children with us. When I asked for peas rather than the crudités that came out with one of the children’s meals this was sorted very quickly. Overall we all enjoyed this experience. Special thanks to Bethan, Alice, Ethan, Zhavira, Nevaeh, Zara, Ceri and George who were all especially friendly, attentive and welcoming.

We're regular visitors at "The Spread". Today we called in for a spot of lunch and the food was excellent as always. Special thanks to Jo who looked after us so well in a friendly and efficient manner. We'll be back very soon.

Zhavira- showed great customer service and friendless during my date with my boy friend Oscar who has such beautiful eyes thanks to spread eagle lighting

Zhavira was so quick with her service, and treated us so nicely. Made our experience a night to remember

Great meal great service great staff! What a lovely evening great steaks and Alice could not do enough to please! Many thanks see you again soon x

Brilliant service as always, Claire and her team were wonderful. Meal was delicious and service was prompt.

Awesome service and atmosphere, friendly staff and great company. Good choice on menu and drinks. Community village pub.

Visited The Spread on Monday evening, food was delicious and piping hot. Service was lovely- Thankyou to Harriet, Claire & Jackie. Acknowledged both as we entered and as we left (makes such a difference) A lovely relaxed evening in our village pub.

Lovely restaurant, great staff and delicious food. Couldn’t ask for much more, staff were very accommodating and the choice of food is excellent. The manager is also very friendly and welcoming. Thanks for making our evening relaxed, we’ll certainly be back!

Just the place for a warm welcome and good food. We were well looked after by Jo who was friendly and knowledgeable.

Lovely food was a little bit slow with the food coming out. But was kept informed the staff were lovely and polite couldn’t have been more helpful.

Went for some lunch and the blonde bar girl was so grumpy and acted like we were really putting her out with our presence. At least 4 options for mains on the menu weren’t available and when we did order the food took an hour...

Very very busy so we had to wait a while for our food but it was worth the wait. Our Sunday roasts were hot tasty and had loads of gravy as made sure we had extra and our dog loved the pigs in blanket and...

A wonderful pub in the heart of the village. Wonderful staff who go above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

lovely food and lovely staff the menu was lovely and we was spoilt for choice. the pie was so nice. jackie was a lovely waitress and nothing was too much for her

Visited with friends and thoroughly enjoyed this cosy traditional pub. The staff were lovely and welcoming.The food was quick to arrive and very hot and tasty. We were never rushed and enjoyed a leisurely glass of wine and a good coffee. Will definitely visit again

Really lovely pub with a nice cosy feel. Food was great and served really quickly. Staff all very friendly and polite. Will definitely visit again soon.

Imagine: A hundren years old plus Inn,a stream running by, easy parking,whilst inside are panel walls and beamed ceilings- and the MOST BORING MENU possible is placed before you................ Owned by a hotel/pub group this what we are coming to-food which suits the owners not...

We were served by a lovely girl called Zhavira. The place is just beautiful and it was all decorated for Halloween and it looked spectacular. The food was really nice and the staff were quick and courteous. Fully intend to frequent this establishment again.

Friendly welcoming staff, Claire and her team did a good job at making us feel very welcome, especially our Dog! We really enjoyed the Duo of Lamb and the crumble to finish. Yum

Amazing food! Amazing service and great location. All members of staff were really helpful and genuinely wanted to help. Our son has a nut allergy and the team were really helpful and great with allergies. This is hard to come by. Would highly recommend a...

Excellent fish and chips and a pint of Adnams Ghost ship, lovely staff, it’s been a while since we visited but definitely did not disappoint.

Went with my family for Sunday dinner, having not eaten at The Spread for a few months after a bad meal and bad service a while ago (which I didn’t do a review on). Management has since changed and I was hopeful it would have...

We went with family. It is quite expensive but the meal was really nice (I had the steak). All my family enjoyed their meals, except my son who had the lamb (it was overcooked), however they did offer to replace this. The service was good.

Last minute decision to go to the local Vintage Inn for dinner. Lovely new menu. Great quick and friendly service and wonderful welcome from Claire. Food was hot and very good. Will be back again soon.

Lovely staff, same great venue but so disappointed by a very lacklustre meal. Particularly gutted because it was the second poor one within a month - all tepid, tough meat and impenetrable potatoes - and for years this had been my go-to favourite for fabulous...

Food was outstanding, great selection of ales, staff were attentive and friendly and the bill was a very pleasant surprise. What more could you ask for? Great food, drinks and staff and all at a very reasonable price. We loved it so much that 9...

The Sunday dinners are amazing. I had the Roast Beef and it was perfect, melt in the mouth. The staff were lovely, everything was organised and service was impeccable, THE best place to go in all of Burton!!

The place and the food was lovely. I had a very nice curry which I would definitely have again 😋. Lovely and efficient staff all round as well

Sunday dinner was not good. Roast potato's were not cooked fresh, they were the frozen variety, carrots were soggy, roast parsnips were anaemic, pigs in blankets were not cooked enough. Service was good, staff were lovely.

Such a lovely place for roast dinner with great service, always acquainted for our requests. All staff are always happy to help and greet with a smile, we regularly visit.

Despite not living in the local area, this pub has become a regular place to visit for great food in a wonderful village setting. Never had a bad meal and staff are always friendly and efficient. Great quality and great price. Worth a try and...

Amazing food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Food very quick and high standard. Waitresses were very smiley and patient

This place used to serve an excellent Sunday lunch years ago. How times change! Visited today, it was appalling. One of the worst meals I’ve ever had anywhere! It took 75 minutes to get our dreadful starters, and even then the cheese garlic bread didn’t...

Went out for a family meal today. I'd not been to the Spread for a meal for a few years. The beer and ale selection was excellent. The food absolutely delicious - and we had a good selection of mains and desserts between us. The...

This was our first time to the Spread Eagle, what a little gem! A beautiful village pub in a lovely setting. The staff were all very welcoming, friendly and extremely helpful which gives the pub a lovely relaxing vibe. There is an extensive menu with...

Visited with my fiancé and dog. Was greeted with a smile from all staff, had treats for the dog and was served a great fish and chips and pie of the day. Claire was lovely and had time for a nice conversation. Would definitely recommend....

2nd visit recently and just as goodbye not better than before. The staff so friendly make a real fuss of our dog and foot was hot fresh and plentiful. We will be back again

Excellent pub, very pleasant staff, who are efficient, informative and helpful. We all tried the carvery which was great value for money and then we sampled the massive cakes, A number to choose from at a great price point. 2 of the party tried the...

A thoroughly fantastic music event at The Spread Eagle this weekend! Great atmosphere, very, very busy but this did not impede service at all. The staff did a fantastic job. The music was top-notch on both days. I hope this becomes a regular event.

We had a lovely time here in the sun listening to great live music and enjoying really good service from the hard working staff. The app worked really well to order drinks and food and everything arrived very promptly. The atmosphere was amazing and we’re...

We came to watch live music by The Soul Funk Junkies in the pub garden this week, 29th May . It was fabulous , the crowd were fun , the staff were so hard working and lovely the band on their first gig were brilliant

The Spread Eagle had an amazing live music event this weekend. Excellent bands and a great atmosphere. The place was really busy and people were having a really good time. The staff did a top job. Hope the Spread keeps having these events because they...

Love the fact that they put on music in the garden for the Bank Holiday weekend. Different bands, different styles. Hope this is something they continue - great atmosphere!!

Dissapointing service, to the point that I had to give up, cancel my order and leave. The server, however, could not have been more helpful or apologetic about the chaos that was obviously happening in the kitchen, and she tried her very best to make...

This was exceptional! From the welcome to the service it was really good. Food was quick and plenty of it to, lovely garden to the rear of the pub but immaculate inside. Small bit of feedback was the Prosecco was warm but all in all...

We live locally to the pub and have eaten here many times, in fact we dined with friends couple of weeks ago. My wife has recently had surgery on her oesophagus and therefore is limited in what she can eat at the moment, a few...

Beautiful dog friendly pub. Only popped in for a drink whilst on a dog walk whilst visiting the area, but found it more than welcoming. Hoping to return as soon as possible for a meal.

Nice atmosphere, friendly people and excellent drinks. It's a must when you are in the area! Will definetly come back! Cheers

Amazing meal as always. The staff look after us so well every time we go in and the food is always delicious. They even have a dog friendly area where they always make a fuss of our dog. Truly a wonderful place to visit

Lovely atmosphere, the staff were friendly, polite and helpful, lots of choice on the menu and the food served was excellent.

Great tasting meal, great atmosphere, great service. A little on the pricy side. Busy lively place. Only improvement I'd ask, please make a couple more disabled bays. Every time I've been, they're always taken.

Popped into this lovely pub today just by chance as we were on our way to Cumbria. What a lovely welcoming feeling in the pub we both had fish and chips which was absolutely huge

We visited bank holiday Monday and were blown away with not only the service but food as well. The manager Ben so friendly and treated us like family and our dog loved him as he got special attention including biscuits and water. Our waitress kayliegh...

Came here for work and had lunch with a colleague, food was top notch and service was excellent . I highly recommend the chicken burger!

This has become a regular eatery when we are in the area due to the quality of the food and portion sizes. The staff are polite and the overall atmosphere is very pleasant, the tables are well spaced and there are many areas where you...

Not entirely happy with the experience. Three of us had the Sunday roast, and there were several problems: I've never had gravy with a layer of oil on top so I'm unsure if it was gravy, the roast potatoes were cold and tasted of flour...

We went as a couple last night, we have been many many times but last night left us feeling a bit let down. It was very busy but we were soon shown to our table and orders taken. My husband had to take his beer...

Customer for over 20 years. Tough steak and uncooked lasagna. Service was good, but we went to have an anniversary meal, so would have preferred poor service and a tasty meal.

Last night we had a fantastic night at the Spread. This was for a large party and they gave us our own area. Everything from the service to the food was just the best and I would like to thank, Keith, Claire and Ben for...

Really lovely homely place. People lovely and staff friendly. Parking g was easy and service was excellent. Food was really lovely . Portion sizing perfect. Food choices were good. Nice hot mulled wine on the bar which was amazing. Chocolate brownie 😋 thanks all we...

Excellent service and food well prepared and cooked for 7 people. The staff are friendly and the menu gas a great choice.

Just spent a lovely evening with great friends at The Spread Eagle in Rolleston. The food was amazing, I had the special which was belly pork and it was cooked to perfection, I then followed this with the Black Forest dessert. Millie was very attentive...

Another visit to the Spread and another disappointment. Poor landlord seemed run off his feet so was not warm and welcoming. Being "poor pensioners", we use the Spread for a special visit, ie Anniversary, good news on Chemo etc. which is about every 2 weeks...

Food superb with recommendations from staff, friendly and great atmosphere, will definitely be visiting again soon

Booked a table for 6. Staff were friendly and took drinks order quickly. Drinks took ages to come and they'd actually been back to take food order before drinks even arrived. Food was on the more expensive side of average priced but wasn't good food....

Generally the food is good and service is excellent. On our last visit we had the the Black Forest Flower Pot dessert, this has really gone downhill since our previous visit, no attention to detail, looks like it had been thrown onto the plate and...

I have eaten here a few times and usually love the place so visited today for a Sunday dinner. All had a Sunday roast dinner and we had been told they do a smaller portions which 2 of us ordered. On arrival all were standard...

Super good service and the Black Forest Flower Pot dessert especially was very delicious. We had a lovely celebration meal with the family. Thank you Spread Eagle!

We had a very warm, friendly welcome from the barman and the food we had was really nice. Could do with adding a more varied choice for vegetarians though.

Lovely afternoon sat in the garden, good choice of food, quick, friendly service, dog friendly, lovely surroundings.

Had a meal here last night. It was really good the food was excellent although the king prawns were very small. The point of this review is the staff were really good happy and courteous. This was our first family meal since the death of...

This is a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and the staff are always so attentive. The food is nice, however I really wish you would add more vegetarian options for mains. The only options for me were a burger or a pizza. I had...

Not very imaginative vegetarian options. Some nice sandwich offers unless you are vegetarian. Jack Fruit isn't for everyone. Limp green decorative attachment with the Squashage roll. Not fresh and crunchy. Side salad of tough lettuce, big pale chunks of tomato and thick slices of red...

Unfortunately the weather was not suitable for sitting outside but we enjoyed a very tasty (if slightly pricey) meal and excellent friendly service. The "hot drink and mini-dessert" was a clever idea for those of us who are unable to manage a full dessert. A...

Lovely setting,very overpriced food and beer. £5.00 for a pint of Timothy tailor, will not return in a hurry,which is a shame as the setting is lovely .

I have been to the pub many times and eaten there a few. The outdoor area is wonderful. The food was average and pricey. There are no GF option written on the main menu and the descriptions don’t tell you if there is gluten in...
