Bradford Arms in South Staffordshire

Nice atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff serving decent beer with a fun quiz. Very helpful, well organised quiz and a decent evening out - good value all round

Took my Mom in her 80’s for her birthday 🎂 Superb service wonderful table and incredible roast beef crispy outer tender inside. The gammon and turkey were wonderful too mu Mom was thrilled. Our starters huge prawn cocktails were much larger than elsewhere and full of taste. All the staff were excellent polite helpful & very professional. We learned that Sam & Paul are retiring which is both sad and also very well deserved after 20+ years of superb quality and service. Our Monday bike club Wednesday blokes dining and weekend carvery goers plus I would say majority of people within 35 mile radius will really really truly miss you and your fab team😢 Thank you for looking after every one of us so fantastically and enjoy your retirement both With love xxx

Warm country hotel with restaurant and bar. Rooms warm. Room 4 up difficult staircase. Lot of interference on TV. Heavy traffic passes main door. Breakfast included. Good car park. No blue badge parking. Not suitable for wheelchair users.

Food is okay, but the place overall feels run down, needs a good clean and sort out, bad set up with the carvery station within the corridor which causes chaos with people queuing, staff carrying hot plates trying to avoid people.

Attending the quiz night with the lovely lady it was absolutely fantastic!!! Drinks prices are good and everyone had such a laugh it was amazing!!

We visited The Bradford Arms for a birthday and it was fantastic. It’s a great pub, with amazing food and a great selection of drinks. It’s your typical English pub, with a great atmosphere it far exceeds expectations. Portion sizes are enormous, but prices are such good value for money - for the price we paid you’d expect portion sizes to be far smaller but we were pleasantly surprised, and quality isn’t cut to make up for it (some of the best onion rings I’ve had!) Staff were fantastic, especially the lady who was either the owner or the manager on this evening - nothing was too much and it felt like she loves her job which really helped the overall welcoming atmosphere. It’s a shame we don’t live a little closer but we will definitely be back! Would highly recommend!

When we arrived on a very busy Sunday we were served straight away The Carvery had a huge choice of vegetables which were all delicious and piping hot and a generous portion of meat etc. It was also very good value in comparison with others. The only reason it wasn’t a 5star was that the place itself needed a good clean eg dead flies, cobwebs etc and didn’t match up to the high standard of food.

There is a great variety of options @ the Bradford Arms’ carvery - served to an impressive standard. The quality and quantity of food available represent good value for money. Service could have been slightly more attentive. I also disagree that any children over 8 are charge for an ‘adults carvery’ however, in hindsight, they eat nowhere near as much food as an adult.

Hadn’t been here in years but we have been told best Sunday Carvery anywhere near it, so we visited for lunch on Saturday, waited sometime for our starters and then mains but now realise why! All the food is cooked/made fresh and extremely well worth the wait. Both had bruschetta starters and I went for beer battered cod (nearly a foot long) my partner decided on the lamb hot pot, definitely will be returning on a regular basis.

Took a group of friends to the Bradford Arms at the end of a caravan rally at Weston Park. Pre booked our food and as it was a Wednesday evening we took advantage of their’2 for £16’ menu. Excellent service and food. Staff were lovely.

Strange reception off bar lady, not sure if we could sit in bar when we requested that?? Drew was lovely, delivered, checked back and made us very welcome. Great food.

Great pub and food is excellent. Sunday carvery is amazing. Lovely snug off a pool room at the back. Welcoming staff and good choice of ales and wines.

We had a lovely Sunday Lunch at The Bradford Arms for our Grandson’s first birthday. Overall we all enjoyed it and the carvery lunch was delicious, with such an extensive choice of meats, vegetables, potatoes, sauces etc., we didn’t have to ask for anything! We did, however, have a problem though after we were shown to our table, the staff asked us if we wanted starters, and nobody did, so we were asked to wait until told to go and get our food. We waited 35 minutes and still had to ask if it was okay for us to go! We discussed this with the person in charge and she apologised, as well as taking some money off our bill to make up for this misunderstanding. We were happy with that, and to be honest they couldn’t do enough for us after that, and turned it all around! We took a birthday cake and they bought it out, gave us serviettes, plates and forks for us to eat it. We didn’t leave a tip but maybe we will next time because we will definitely be back as the food and the friendly staff made up for the delay in service. Thank you!

First Visit to the Bradford Arms, Absolutely beautiful carvery so much variety, we all agreed best one we’ve ever been too. Staff were ALL super friendly, kind and helpful. Keep doing what your doing because it’s just amazing. We will be back very soon.

Literally the best Sunday carvery ever! Absolutely love it here it's got so much choice lovely beer garden just nice atmosphere in general staff lovely

Not normally a fan of a carvery, but this was fabulous. Great selection of vegetables with the star performer the dauphinoise potatoes. Excellent dinner with a good pint of 'Wainwright'. Don't even know how much it cost; brother paid!! Perfect......

Came here for a Sunday carvery with family. On arrival waitress showed us to our table which was sticky! Ordered 3 adult carveries and one child. Also ordered drinks at the same time, the orange squash had a mucky froth on it so asked the waitress for a fruit shoot instead, this was out of date ( March 2021)! which was exchanged. The pork and beef were nice but the carrot mash was soggy, the roast potatoes and yorkshire pudding tasted like they were cooked from frozen. We went to pay at the bar and she tried to charge us for 4 adult meals until my daughter questioned the bill, no apologises. The decor is stuck in the 80's and felt grubby. Sorry but won't be returning

Possibly the best carvery I’ve ever had in the way of quality of food and variety of veg. It would be nice if they had a vegetarian main dish like a nut roast or something but saying that, I was not short of options from the rest of the carvery. I’m also pretty sure the gravy wasn’t vegetarian, so I think they should have a veggie option for this too.. If a little more effort went into veggie options this would be 5/5 from me!

Just got Home from having a meal.The Fish was bigger than the plate and absolutely delicious. My Chicken and ribs was equally delicious.Great value for money and you won't go home hungry! Well worth a visit

Very reasonably priced for a great Carvery! Carvery was amazing with so much choice! One staff member who may be the boss?... who was doing the bills was very friendly and welcoming. It’s a shame this didn’t reflect in the other staff members. Granted the young ones may be lacking in confidence etc. The other bar lady was terribly abrupt and a tad rude, a smile and some customer service skills wouldn’t go a miss! Decor a bit 90s but a great place for a quick Sunday carvery :) Good covid awareness etc

Food (fish pie ith new otatoes, steak & ale pie with chips)tasty and substantial. Friendky service, reasonably quick. Usua Covid compliances in place. Our only regret was the weather didn't permit eating in the beer-garden.

We stopped here for food on our way from Scotland to the Black Country living Musem. We stayed overnight down the road at a campsite. We called up to book a table, they had availability within 15 mins. Upon arriving a lovely lady took us to our seats. On the table there was full social distancing instructions and a bottle of hand sanitiser.The menu was excellent. A huge choice and small plates for the little ones.The waitress took our drinks order and returned with a special folded napkin because my daughter said the place was so posh!The food came, piping hot and huge portions.Great value for money, staff friendly and attentive. Fantastic.

Took my mom here last night for a meal. We booked a table for 6pm, which is when they opened. It was very well organised, with hand sanitizer everywhere. My mom had scampi, my missus had lamb chops and I had the steak and ale pie. It was all cooked from fresh (we had a 45 minute wait but it was well worth it). I would give the meals a ten out of ten. It really was a fantastic Meal. I just felt sorry for them that they were so quiet, hope business picks up soon. We will be back very soon.

A regular visitor to the Bradford Arms, always a good welcome from the staff. Smashing meals always available, their Sunday carvery is just fantastic, loads of vegetables on offer. A great pub to meet up with friends. Summer months on a Monday evening is bikers club, a motorcycle owners great meeting place to discuss bikes with fellow bikers.( ladies included ). Here again great bikers meal on offer for around a fiver.

We stopped off here for lunch on the way back from Weston park. There was four of us plus a toddler and a baby. We'd nearly missed the cut off point for lunch but the bar staff were very accomodating and it wasn't a problem. We were found a table with plenty of space for a pushchair and were served promptly. We all ordered a hot beef baguette and our toddler had a cheese sandwich with chips. We had a very good experience overall. The food was excellent, the portions were generous and the staff were friendly and served us at our table. The menu had a lot of choice and we would definitely return.

My family visited today for my dads birthday and we ordered the drinks at the bar, there was no mention of what wine did we want just poured a glass of red. The wine was meant to be Shiraz but tasted of vinegar with a hint of vimto for colouring. Absolutely disgusting! Myself and my sons girlfriend was unable to drink it so decided to go back to the bar and ask if we could have another drink instead. OMG Cindy the bar attendant was so rude and refused to exchange the drink and said she didn’t think it was a problem. She had no customer service skills at all. Anyway she lost out of 8 meals plus drinks in the end because my family and I didn’t want to give her our money!!!!!!will never go back and will also tell friends and family to avoid going there! We are all foodies in our family and often put reviews on where we have eaten so that rude woman Cindy definitely put us off going there again! On a lighter note we went into Brewood to the steakhouse grill and had an amazing meal with outstanding service.

We stopped here for lunch when on a journey between Cambridge and the Wirral. We had not stopped here previously and were pleasantly surprised. Food (lamb hotpot) was good and the portion size was very generous, the cost was very reasonable, good value. they keep at least 3 or possibly 4 real ales. The only drawback is that food appears to be prepared fresh from order so that we waited 30 mins to receive it. Staff are friendly and they seemed to be very busy, there was a possible under-staffing issue.The whole pub area was impressively decorated for Christmas, an artistic tour de force. So unless you are in a serious hurry stop here in preference to nearby Dobbies or Western Park (overpriced) just down the road towards Telford.

Reasonably close to M6 so can easily divert from motorway to meet friends. So midweek lunchtime 4 of us plus dog tried it. Only a handful of people there. Whilst the large open plan restaurant is the primary eating area there are a few tables in the bar for those with a dog. Good selection of beers. Menu quite extensive which can be a worrying sign. However the quality across all 4 main courses was very good with generous portion sizes. The prices are very reasonable. Will certainly visit again.

Really not good Felt like queuing for school dinners in a smelly corridor Our table was next to an outside door covered by a dirty curtain and was cold and draughty To top it off we were next to the gents with a lovely smell of bleach and pee Food plentiful but tasteless .Would not recommend or return

We had eaten at The Bradford several times and had been impressed with the large portions of good food. on this occasion we decided to sample the Sunday carvery.We arrived about 4:30 and it was busy. We waited in the bar area where I had a pint There were about 4 real ales available) and my friend had her usual tap water and ice. We were soon shown to a table near the bar and then proceeded to the serving area, there were the usual selection of meats and a vast array of veg; my friend was very happy. For less than £9 this was a real treat.We learnt that if going fora meal anytime on a Sunday it is best especially if you want to eat in the restaurant area.

We visited for a family celebration, so our table was booked for 13.30. Upon arrival it was obvious that this was a popular venue as the large car park was almost full. Upon entring we were sent to the bar area to get drinks whilst our table was sorted. A short wait and we were taken through to our table. When we were ready it was a visit to the carvery.I must admit that I`m not usually a big fan of carverys so I was filled with trepidation. However, no worries. There were four meats on offer, beef, pork, turkey and gammon, and you could choose two of them. I had the beef and gammon, and my portions were generous. There was a vast array of vegetables available, and, because the dishes were not huge, they were regularly refreshed meaning that all of the food was fresh and hot. The meal itself was tasty and very enjoyable, and being a carvery you could have the portions of your choice. The only downside for me was that where the food was served was also a passage to our dining area from the rest of the pub, plus with the food being regularly refreshed it could beome a bit of a challenge trying to avoid other diners and staff, and to carry a plate without spilling the contents. I believe that this is a place that needs to be booked to ensure that you have a table, plus anyone with mobility problems need to be aware that access to the rear dining area involves negotiating a couple of steps. Overall a lovely lunch. Although they were busy we never felt pressured to finish our food and clear our table.

My wife and I visited with my In-laws Saturday evening. We were shown to our table by a very friendly waitress and we had a good look over the menu. The choices are very varied with plenty of choice to suit all tastes.It was nearly an hour before our meals arrived but the wait was worth it as they were really tasty. My Mom in law said the steak was the best she had tasted in ages. My chicken dish I really enjoyed and the chips were really good.The best was yet to come with the dessert. I had the ginger sponge with pouring cream and it was well, wow. Moist, light and coated in ginger. I'm not sure why the delay occurred but things did speed up for other diners later onbut I'm sure there was a satisfactory explanation.

It was very quiet when we arrived and we had a drink while we waited to be seated. The menu is very varied with a good choice of homemade dishes as well as a good choice of veggie dishes. Although it was fairly quiet it was a long time for the food to arrive on the table. The wait was worth it. My chicken was really tasty and the chips were really good. The other members of the party really enjoyed their meals too. The dessert was a real treat, absolutely banging! The total bill was very reasonable at £63 for the four of us with drinks. The only downside was the wait. Over 40 minutes but I'll be happy to let that go because of how much it was enjoyed.

I have never eaten at the Bradford on a Sunday, as I do not like carveries. For the rest of the week I would say, do not be put off by other reviews - the food here is excellent (although I do understand some of the reviews that are not so positive about service and the length of time for food to arrive).

Myself and my partner went for what we thought would be a nice Sunday carvery as we had heard nothing but good reviews from friends. However, the attitude of the staff and service was abysmal. When at the counter where you select your meats I was asked what meat I would like I said none thank you as I am vegetarian (there was no substitute like there is in most places- usually a nut roast) or even asked if I would like a extra Yorkshire pudding. Nothing at all! I proceeded with a plate of veg etc sat down and the food was ‘okay’ I then ordered a desert and glass of coke. The desert came, and still no drink after nearly 20 minutes. We then went up to pay I stated to the member of staff I had not received the coke and to please remove it from the bill to which she said quite rudely ‘it’s not been added anyway’ no apology! I then mentioned I had a veggie carvery, to be told it’s the same price as a normal carvery, with no substitute! I said that’s bad as meat is the most expensive part- most places charge slightly less for vegetarian. A very rude manager then piped up and said ‘well you get more choice here than anywhere else’ the young girl serving us then gave me dagers and stared at me until we left the building. I have never received such poor and disappointing service before!! The staff treat the customers as if they are a nuisance and customer service is clearly at the bottom of their priorities! Think twice about coming here for lunch if you would like a nice meal with atmosphere and good service!

We have eaten here once before & enjoyed the carvery on a Sunday. Unfortunately our 2nd visit was disappointing. Our drinks order taken at the table took ages to arrive. The variety of vegetables is huge. But this definitely shows up in the quality. It really is average at best. They should do at most half the choice but do it better. Packaged Yorkshire puddings, deep fried roast potatoes & parsnips & lost of dishes covered with cheese sauce that really does not go well with gravy. The meat was below average. We had to ask which meat the joint of beef was as it looked boiled rather than roasted.The beef was chewy & tasteless. The gents toilets need a total refurbishment, being run down & smelly & lastly the service at the bar is very slow indeed. Sorry. we did like the place the first time but not again. There are other places that still do proper yorkshires & roasties by the way.

Visited on a Sunday evening, staff were quite miserable and seemed unhappy lots of eye rolling to other customers who asked for sauce etc which was noticed by other customers who looked over and smiled. Maybe they had a busy day but if you want customers to return you need to be professional.

Had the most awful visit here, staff were miserable and rude, waited half an hour for a table next to smelly dirty curtains. We sat down not given a menu until we asked then was made aware only Sunday roast carvery was available which we was not told over the phone when booked. Absolutely gutted, awful experience. Had one drink, left our table and didn’t bother with overpriced under average food. We will not be returning unless drastic changes are to occur.

Wanted to take my husband for a meal for a special occasion. We had been told this was worth a try. I wish I hadn’t. We booked a table which you MUST do but we still had to wait 1/2 hr to be sat. This is a cavery and help yourself to veg set up. The queue was badly managed and the situation of the cavery ‘bar’ meant people were walking past with plates of food and drinks in a very cramped passage way . In addition to the kitchen staff who were coming out into the passage way. My son and myself and I had beef which was very very dry , I didn’t eat mine. My husband had gammon which he said was ok but also dry. The veg was just about ok, the carrots were tasteless, the sprouts hard, but the Swede and roast potatoes were nice.

This place literally serves the BEST carvery. Meat so so tasty. Over 15 veg to choose from. All fresh and top quality. We arrived at 5pm and everything was fresh. Service both at table and bar was great. Quick and efficient. Friendly staff. Car park, good access for those less agile.

Visited here with the family for sunday lunch. The service and quality of the food was a very high standard. Would certainly go again

1st time I had been but 2 of group had been before so they recommended it.beautiful place friendly atmosphere. We had carvery and wow the choices were plenty I had beef and to say it was tender is an understatement it was moist juicy and melt in the mouth perfect large choice of veg and potatoes.food definitely the best carvery I've ever tried.also cleanliness was bang on.will definitely go again and no hesitation in recommending to others

Sunday carvery with friends who recommended. Honest opinion is , it’s a bit rubbish really. The meat quality was very poor , the roast potatoes were very good indeed and the rest of the veg was average .

Wonderful variety of vegetables but if you only have veg and not meat you pay the same. This raises the question is the meat free. If this is the case a couple could have meat only which is free and you just buy one veg 2 for one meals if you share the veg which is limitless.

Had a large table for 10 for Sunday lunch. Selection of meats and veg is vast. All great tasting and good quality. Fab gravy and service. Well organised. Plenty of food being brought out to keep stocked up. Waitresses and front of house team very polite and on it!

Ate here with a group of 30+ walkers, thought the food was very good quality and value. The lasagna was very tasty and presented with a nice side salad and chips. Not sure if it was meant for us but we also had extra veg that was provided to the adjacent table. Would recommend.

I've been to The Bradford Arms many times and the Sunday Carvery is excellent. Amazing choice of vegerables and always have 3 meats to choose from. Staff are friendly and courteous. However, the smell today as you walk in was absolutely dreadful. At first I thought they must have a sewerage problem as I wasn't aware they were 'dog friendly' until there was a loud barking from a couple of dogs that were there. At this point I realised the awful smell that welcomed you, as you walked in, was actually damp dirty dog smell. I must admit, I've never smelt this before but was very glad we were in the very back room rather than the bar or the first room. This has made me think twice about going again but I can't take away the fact that their carvery is still the best and very reasonably priced at just £8.75 each. Please sort out the unwelcome dog smell on your premises. This will put a lot of customers off.

What a disappointment this was - a pretty good lunch for 30+ of us - completely spoiled by a very sour-faced miserable shabby-looking woman behind the bar. It was a shame because the food wasn't half bad and the waitresses were very efficient and helpful. The cold reception we received - and the very slow service of drinks - from the one and only person behind the bar - mean that there is no way we will be returning! Very inflexible when one of our party tried to cancel his meal well in advance but was still forced to pay for it!

wow this Is the fourth time we have been for sunday lunch and can not fault the food or the service its awesome value for money thanks again to your staff we will be back

The service was very good as was the food. First visit for us and our friends but we will be back often. The lady serving us was Brilliant

Another place that we have been intending to visit for some time. There is a large car park. Although as we approached the entrance the steps looked a bit intimidating, there was a good access ramp to the side.

Called in here on the way back home from a day out. Having looked at reviews of other pubs along the same road this one had the best so thought we'd give it a go. With us only living in Telford I will definitely be returning and can't believe we've not been here before.

Very good food and service. Nice pub with back ground music at just the right level.also the price and quality is very good.

We go there several times a week; which speaks for itself. Paul, Sam and their staff are always delighted to see you and are very diligent in their customer service. Its just a lovely place to be! It gets the thumbs up from Roly & Mandy. Thank you.

I hate going out for Sunday lunch as it never compares with my wife's masterful creation. But this is the only place that comes close. Enough said.

Sam and Paul have this pub running smoothly every time we go which is regularly as we are regulars. All staff are polite and friendly and can be seen to go out of there way great customer service. The variety of food on carvers is excellent amount of veg etc same in the week large portions fresh etc. A pub we would recommend without hesitation. Keep up the good work Sam Paul cindy.

went for a carvery yesterday, booked a table as we have tried to book a table before but been fully booked. food was lovely and a massive choice, very good value for money. staff were friendly. bit of a tight squeeze in the carvery area where you queue up, so need to be careful with hot plates! will be visiting again

Visited today 29/8/18 for 2 take out carverys, couldnt believe how dirty the place was, if it wasnt for me being hungover and hungry i would of just turned round and asked for a refund. Everything was looked tasted and looked dry People was waiting for gravey for atleast 5-6 minutes with there food going cold. I then go my take out box needed to ask for more roasters & vegetables the woman just snapped and said 5 minutes i wasnt waiting 5 minutes when you should just be able to get your food and go. Wont be coming back here again.

Lunch Monday in July – travelling towards Wrexham – pulled in – empty car park – ready welcome – menus at hand – seated – drinks order taken – 2 starters chosen from an extensive menu – large portions – me the pate with onion chutney – my wife a basket of tempura prawns with chilli dip – both came with substantial mounds of salad – both tasty interesting and well-priced – unexpectedly good choice – thank you

If you are hungry, then you have to eat here. This carvery is the best. There is plenty of freshly cooked vegetables and four meats to choose from. You can be assured of a good service by the friendly staff.

Visited on Sunday, pre booked as always busy,booked for 4pm which is later than we usually go but we found it the ideal time, relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff and still amazing food!! We had garlic mushrooms and prawn cocktail for starters, amazing!! Then went on to a vast selection from the carvery, faultless. We had a pint of shandy and lime and soda 4.60 we shall definitely return again even the front of staff was smiley. The only down comment I can make is answer the phone it took us 3 days to get through and book. But the food more than compensates for it.

Lovely cosy pub meal, very comfortable, friendly service, very attentive staff, tasty food at reasonable variety and prices. Little outdated decor but perhaps that adds to it’s character. Would recommend and go again.

Amazing pub staff fantastic so helpful and friendly camped here for years and will hopefully continue to, food amazing what more could you ask for

Regularly meet up with friends here for lunch. The portion sizes are generous, I normally always have the fish and chips, the crunchily battered fish is the size of a whale, without a doubt, the largest fish I've ever had in a fish and chips meal. Service is efficient and the beers are good.

We have called in here on several occasions but most recently we visited two weeks in a row. The staff are very welcoming and the place is clean. There is a wide choice of food, we honestly took ages to decide. The food portions are BIG and my husband referred to his fish and chips as "Moby Dick" and chips. The pies and hot pots are very tasty as is all the food we have had. We haven't been to the carvery for a long time but from what i recall it was a good wholesome Sunday lunch.

We go on a Saturday night usually once a month. Kept promising ourselves we would do Sunday lunch, so we did. Had to wait a few minutes for our table. We had the carvery. It was a bit like queuing for lunch at school . It was hot standing in the corridor waiting our turn. There was a choice of four meats. I asked for beef and turkey, but ended up with pork and beef. Great selection of vegetables . I like my veg. My partner was disappointed with his sprouts, said they were undercooked . For my part, the sauces to go with the meats were empty. Overall we enjoyed our meal but it was very busy. Staff were pleasant as usual. Good value for money.

Came here on a recommendation and it didn’t disappoint, great home cooked quality tasty food and loads of it, We will definitely be coming again.

After a long week at work we decided to go somewhere different. I had never been there before but knew of its existence. It’s very old fashioned inside and in need of some TLC. With a lot of wood and basic furniture. The entrance hand...

Well priced, home made food, massive portions. Best if you book as they seem put out if you just turn up. Waitress was a bit like marmite, you either loved her or found her rude.

Not a big fan of carvery but have to say this was the best one I have ever had. If they were all like this I would be a convert. Plenty of choice, well cooked and great quality food. Brilliant value with two courses for...

If you are in the Staffordshire/Shropshire area don’t miss the opportunity to visit this fantastic pub. 10 minutes from Junction 12 M6, same from M54, on the A5 and prominent. Beer is great, food is brilliant, service and welcome is superb. Thank you Paul, Sam,...

The best Sunday carvary ever, the amazing meats and large selection of fresh vegetables are never ending could not fault it

We visited this restaurant on a chilly wet evening and were warmly welcomed. Nice atmosphere and since it was Pie Week in UK I chose one of the pies which was a little disappointing since the crust was just laid on top of the filling...

It doesn’t get any better than this. If you are travelling in the West Midlands on the M6, A5 or A41 you can’t beat a meal in the friendly atmosphere of the Bradford Arms where the welcome is always warm, the food amazing and the...

Wonderful ......Meats tender and with a good choice. The choice of vegetables was just great so many to chose from and cooked to perfection. Lovely staff .Gets very busy you must book but well worth it.

Today was my second visit for the Sunday carvery, the booked table wasn’t ready, when seated half heartedly there was no menu presented we had to ask, my friend is a vegetarian and there was cannelloni as a veggie option (which isn’t a roast) and no other alternative option apart from vegetables off the carvery to which she still got billed full price for, we did challenge the pricing and when I got up and went to the carvery I could hear the rude unhelpful staff talking about us in the kitchen which is totally unprofessional! I’m not a fan of white meat for a roast and wanted the beef, I had to wait 15mins for a “fresh” joint to be taken out this. This alleged “fresh” joint had been cooked within an inch of its life it was over cooked dry and crumbly to look at so I opted for the gammon ham (which I have to say was absolutely stunning!) we then proceed to dessert so I ordered sticky toffee pudding which actually was bought in treacle sponge and NOT sticky toffee pudding the very rude waitress who was wearing way to much make up and jewellery which is actually breaking food hygiene regulations argued with an unprofessional attitude with me and tried telling me it was sticky toffee pudding I’m a head chef in the trade myself I know what I’m talking about. So we come i the bill and third time lucky we finally got it right. Needless to say I will not be visiting again we didn’t even get so much of an apology. If I was the manager/owner I would sharpen up on the customer services you provide as it is absolutely shocking!

Visited here for Sunday lunch after a recommendation from a friend... arrived to a poor welcome and my booked table not ready. First sign of things to come was when I was served my drink in a dirty glass, the bar girl did kindly change this but it all went down hill from there! We were sat at our table with no explanation of how to order or what was on offer. After asking it was explained it was a Sunday lunch offering only, being a vegetarian I asked what the offering was to be told it was cannelloni not what I expect to be served with a carvery, she also explained I could just have a plate of vegetables- how appetising! In the end this is the option I chose as I really didn’t fancy pasta and roast potatoes to be told it would be the same price as a meat carvery!! My sons roast beef looked like the beef had been cooking for a month, it was so bad he put gravy on it just to be able eat it (he doesn’t like gravy). Then came the brought in microwave dessert. The bill was wrong 3 times and absolutely no apology just a bad attitude and a scorned face. Will not be returning.

Visited in November with friend for lunch but SO wish we hadn't

This was our 2nd time we have had a XMAS DAY MEAL at the Bradford Arms..This year was exceptional, The atmosphere was magical and relaxing and the owner and staff welcomed us as we were part of their family. The whole meal experience was excellent from start to finish which was made so pleasing by the friendly attentive staff. Special thanks to the team at the Bradford Arms.

Our walking group booked here last year and were impressed with the Standard, Quality and Quantity of food so we booked again for this year 2017. There was 46 in our group and all ordered their preferences, the starters were served in a timely and orderly manner, Soup, Melon and Breaded Mushrooms, The Mains were served with the same manner along with the copious amounts of vegetables, the Deserts were of a similar standard.

Excellent food and service top beer starter very good main course excellent staff very good 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Decent carvery for the money. Gravy’s always a bit toxic and the meat could be better, but you get what you pay for. Feels a bit like a school canteen in the back room. Have used various times before and will do again.

The table was booked for 7-30 pm. Everyone arrived on time and we were soon having an aperitif thanks to the very efficient lady tending the bar. The waitress taking our orders was very friendly and knowledgeable so that we all new exactly just what we were ordering. By 8-30pm all of our party had been served, great service! Prior to the meals arriving we had ordered some very nice Merlot to accompany our various choices and it was a very good choice. Once again the wine was served by the lady tending the bar. The meals at the Bradford Arms are spectacular both in looks, taste, variety and quantity and are a must for anyone with a good appetite. Just three of the party had room for dessert the rest of us were nicely full. All that remained was for a final cup of percolated coffee and my birthday party was over. It is worth pointing out that two of the party had different eating requirements one being vegetarian and the other gluten both of these can be catered for at the Bradford Arms.
