Here is some of the things we are doing to keep you safe during your visit to The Roebuck. The Roebuck (known locally as 'The Spite') sits in the hamlet of Newall with Clifton on the border of the market town of Otley. A hostelry since George Spence became its first landlord in 1852, the building dates back to around 1783 but things haven't always been this peaceful.
The Roebuck welcomes you to come and sample some good honest pub food from our seasonal menu. Whether it be a hearty pie, a plate to share, or one of our wholesome mains. Children are also catered for with our young bucks menu. From Black Sheep to continental and guest beers and an extensive wine list including over 30 different wines, it's easy to find something to celebrate!

In 1853 neighbour and innkeeper Robert Yates applied for a licence for the 'Travellers Inn', creating a rivalry that lasted 21 years during which, 'an incident' occurred resulting in the Roebuck's unofficial name 'The Spite'.Local chap William Parkinson was a regular at the Travellers Inn but one day called in at the Roebuck first, chatting for about an hour before moving on to The Travellers.

Contemporary, fresh and locally sourced wherever possible our menu changes with the seasons allowing us to make the best use of seasonal produce and give you plenty to choose from. Our legendary pies are, well legendary, and our Sunday lunch is definitely worth leaving home for!
Our succulent beef comes from John Penny and Sons in Rawdon, family run for over 200 years raising their animals traditionally and on natural feeds (they even segregate their animals into groups to avoid bullying).The fresh fish and seafood making a splash on our menu is caught by Taylor Foods from Newcastle, fishmongers for over 85 years.
