We visited the Roos Arms for the first time as a party of three for Friday evening at 18:30. We had made a reservation in advance. When we arrived the car park and pub were full to bursting and we had to find parking on the road. The pub was noisy with music and chatter, a pleasant surprise compared to some pubs which are often empty and lacking atmosphere. Despite making a reservation it wasn't checked. We were a party of three but two of us arrived before the other and we were taken to a table for two. After explaining we were expecting another party, we were shown to a table in the back room which had to be laid for us. The waitress explained it was unexpectedly busier than usual which probably explains the quite slow service. Staff were very polite and helpful when you saw one. The menu is basic. Don't go expecting a big choice because there isn't one. Having said that, what we ordered was good, the starters being better than the mains. The majority of the main courses were fried. Towards the end of our evening the crowds had dispersed and we got talking to Caroline, the landlady. Who apologised for putting us in the back room. That hadn't been an issue at all though. We finished our meal sitting in the main pub area, with coffee by the fire. The pub is on several levels with steps to each. If you have mobility problems this could be an issue. I walk with a stick and did struggle. We all had one soft drink, a starter, main and coffee and paid £28 each.

A busy local pub with a friendly feel. Pleasant & attentive staff. We booked a table for 2 for Sunday lunch. All courses were of a substantial size. Prawn cocktail, battered hallumi, roast chicken breast, roast beef, apple crumble with custard & chocolate fudge cake with ice cream. All were very tasty & well presented. A selection of hand pulled & on tap beers & lagers. Pool table & beer garden. A nice cosy pub.
