About This Pub

Ah, The Roebuck – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem in Urmston, you know? I have to say, the food really stands out; whether it's a classic Sunday roast that's cooked just right or some of those pub favourites that leave you satisfied, it's clear they've got the menu sorted for most folks. The staff are an absolute delight, always polite and quick to help, which makes the whole place feel warm and inviting. Then there's the atmosphere – with regular quizzes, live music nights, and even sports on the telly, it's never a dull moment, and that beer garden out back is brilliant for a sunny afternoon pint. It's spot on for families or if you're bringing the dog along, with plenty of space and thoughtful touches like disabled access. But, on the downside, if you're keen on vegan dishes, the options are a tad slim, which might put off a few mates who are into that. Still, overall, it's a cracking spot for a relaxed catch-up or a lively evening, and I'd definitely recommend giving it a go for that genuine pub feel.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think hearty pub classics, tasty Sunday roasts, and even some vegan options that hit the mark for a good meal.
  • The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they really make you feel at home, whether you're popping in for a quick drink or a full meal.
  • It's got a brilliant atmosphere with loads of events like weekly quizzes, live music, and sports screenings, plus a spacious beer garden that's perfect for chilling out.
  • Being family-friendly and dog-friendly, it's a great spot for gatherings, with facilities like darts and disabled access making it inclusive for everyone.
Cons
  • The vegan choices are a bit limited, which might leave some folks wanting more variety if they're after plant-based options.
  • From what I've seen in a couple of reviews, the overall experience can feel inconsistent at times, with one person saying it was underwhelming beyond the staff.

Just had a fabulous Sunday lunch, properly home cooked & hot. Party had beef & turkey and both were excellent and tasty. Couldn't fault it. Finished with a sundae, also delicious. Will definitely be back. All staff were very polite and helpful

The only reason for going here is for the gorgeous 5'2 brunette waitress that has a beautiful smile and makes the room feel like heaven, the rest of the pub is useless. Her green blue eyes blew me out of this world. 😜

Lovely pub with great atmosphere and friendly staff. Good range of tasty food served with a smile. Quiz night on Sundays. Rooms for hire inside and out. Highly recommended.

Last minute decision to go out for tea at the Roebuck. Lovely staff found us a table at very short notice. Although busy meal ordered and delivered in a reasonable time. Enjoyed the meal fish and chips not much more expensive than the chippie. Enjoyable experience all round

My first visit here. Dad's 86th Halloween birthday. Service was superb. Not many vegan options. Had a great night! Staff brought our cake out and helped us all night. Thank you, Grace and....Stephanie?
