The Ribchester Arms is always very busy but a recent visit early in the week left us underwhelmed by the average food and ok atmosphere the building is pretty but doesn't look like its had much done since the 70s

The Ribchester Arms is a great place to dine. The Sunday roast we ordered was absolutely superb especially the roast beef which melted in your mouth. The staff are really attentive and make you fell really welcome. Will certainly visit again when we are in the area

We came here for a family meal to celebrate my mum's 50th, recently. I have been before and enjoyed it. However this time was slightly different. Though the atmosphere was lovely and the staff friendly and helpful, the food didn't live up to expectation. It is a shame really as the food was just average. Those who chose a traditional... More

This pub is fantastic. The staff are very polite and well informed about the menu. The chicken livers starter with chilli is a delight. I had a lamb Sunday roast which came with a great selection of fresh vegetables. I can't recommend this place highly enough and will be returning. The Ribchester Arms is a great example for other pub... More

Had a first meal here today with friends. Lovely atmosphere, staff very attentive, and our group of five had no complaints about the food. My partner had the steak and kidney pie and chips which came with a side dish of 5 different veg! The fish and chips was enormous. Overall the food was excellent. Would highly recommend this place...

We went here whilst we had a weeks holiday and visited at lunchtime. The place was a bit quiet, there were a handful of people in. The bar area, whilst quaint, definately needs a lick of paint and perhaps a new carpet, or at the least a clean. We ordered food, all the staff were friendly. The food came very... More

While the building is not notable, the room was very comfortable and the food was unexpectedly excellent, making this a very good place to stay when visiting historic Ribchester, a Roman town, or walking the scenic Ribble Valley.
