It was my first time visiting the Farmers Arms for a meal in the restaurant with my daughter and it was a pleasant surprise. We both thoroughly enjoyed the meal, lovely food, fast and efficient service despite the pub being busy and a great atmosphere. Free parking which is always a bonus! I would recommend and we will both be back in the New Year!!

Our family of 5 went for Christmas lunch yesterday, it was £95 per head. I have never had Xmas lunch out before and to be honest the meal was worth with costs for the day maximum £45. We were totally underwhelmed and felt mot much attention had gone into the accompaniments, the meat was good as was the service. Very disappointed overall and will stick to o lunch at home in future.

We just had some snacks of fries and garlic bread which were actually really nice, but we were disappointed that there were no mozzarella dippers left, the beer we wanted was out of stock and the mulled wine was lukewarm.

Well what a fantastic time we had last night! I took my team of 20 from Headway Charity in Poynton for our Christmas do and we're very pleasantly surprised. The staff were absolutely spot on. Extremely professional, attentive, very patient with a large party and so so kind, helpful and happy. The food was beautiful, just delicious and lots of it, the chef was truly talented. We all felt like royalty, rather like family. Thank you all of you for making us feel so welcome.

Unfortunately having dined here a couple of times, our last visit was very disappointing, as the pie I had was cold in side and half the chips undercooked. The situation was handled very well by the girl serving us. She deserves praise.

Thought id go with my wife for a drink to talk. Standing at the bar for 5 minutes waiting for someone to arrive was not a good start. Then they went to the closest other person editing assuming he was there first. Thank goodness he was honest and said we were waiting first. The music was paying way too loud so found it hard to listen. The only other loud noise was the bar man throwing empty bottles in a bucket and shouting over to his colleagues. When you’re paying £7 a drink one would expect trained staff to be aware of the customers. Don’t think I’ll be returning.

I travelled quite a distance with a friend yesterday 5th December 2024. I grew up in poynton, and the farmers arms was my local. My good was disgustingly. Steak was so fatty, chips over cooked peas microwaved bullets. They were the only thing that was hot. They offered £2.95 refund, I shouldn’t have paid anything, a dog wouldn’t eat it. Don’t waste your money. I won’t be going again. Lovely pub, sack the chef

Issac was exceptionally helpful in helping me with menu choices regarding food intolerances. I had Salmon with kale and salt and pepper fries, which was an adjusted version of a meal from the main menu. The chef was very accommodating the meal was cooked well and the portion more than adequate. My partner drank pint of Unicorn bitter shandy (driving) which he says was was refreshing and ate a peri chicken taco from the nibbles/starter menu, apparently this was good. Friendly positive bar staff, a nice atmosphere from the clientele and dog friendly in the bar area. We will recommend and return.

OK, but not great. Beef had gone a bit dry and roast potatoes had clearly been sat a while despite a 1pm booking for Sunday lunch. Roast chicken was good, and deserts went down well. The decor is pleasant and acoustics are good, so no struggling to hear.

Went with the intention of having lunch. Walked up to the bar to get a drink. There was one other customer at the bar and three staff. One staff member walked over to serve the other customer. One stood in front of us counting some coins, didn’t look at or acknowledge us, then walked over to his colleague for a chat. Still no acknowledgement from either staff member. After a while of standing around like lemons we decided they weren’t interested and walked out and went elsewhere. If they can’t be bothered to acknowledge and greet their customers it’s not worth standing around to see if the service gets any better. Shame as it seemed a nice place otherwise.

Ate here for the first time since it has reopened. Such a disappointment. We both ordered the pie. I had the steak and my partner had the cheese and onion. I had mash with mine which was very heavy and stodgy. The gravy had huge lumps in it (I can only assume its instant and its not been mixed properly. I was told the winter veg were carrots and kale but it was broccoli (they were okay) the pie itself was okay. The pastry had a good flavour but it was too thick. My partners was similar. The waitress was very friendly but the supervisor looked miserable and never smiled. Even though we're local we won't be eating there again. Such a shame. Also the music in the bar was way too loud when we were leaving.

If I could give 10 stars to the service and food we got today I would. Isaac was super friendly, offered me extra bread if I wanted it with pate. The mozzarella sticks were piping hot and plentiful. We had a roast beef dinner and a steak pie for main and both were brilliantly cooked and presented. But it was the service from Isaac and the team that really made this place stand out from everywhere else around, truly superb. Parking is limited but there are other options available locally which the team were happy to chat us through. Our first trip bit we’ll def be back.

The food was OK, but neither dish was at all as described on the menu. No bacon and mustard in the mash and no onion in the gravy for my meal, boiled potatoes instead of sautéed and no asparagus for my wife’s. The manager was genuinely apologetic and offered me a free drink. But she was clearly wholly unaware of what the chef got up to, and wasn’t ‘managing’ at all.

The 4 stars are actually for our server Isaac who was brilliant (actually would be 5 stars just for him, but had to drop a star due to an absolute mess up on arrival with our table booking and the manager was really poor at dealing with it. Apparently we were 'downgraded' to the bar as they thought we had a dog - no dog, never did have a dog, really spoiled the start of the birthday celebrations?? However, once finally settled in the restaurant where we should have been anyway, Isaac was attentive to our every need, the wine and food were delicious, most of us had the roast dinner which was plentiful. Had deserts too which were lovely, in the end turned out to be very good despite the bad start, saved by Isaac, well done!

My soup tasted nice but the ciabatta which came with it was cold. One slice was barely toasted and the other was verging on burnt. My steak ciabatta sandwich was not great. It had a really big bit of gristle in the steak. The best thing about it was the warm toasted nachos which came with it. The service was good and cheerful and the decor of the pub was lovely. For the price they charged, it was very disappointing. Given the other positive reviews we were expecting much better.

3 of our party enjoyed their meal however mine was shocking value for money. I ordered cauliflower steak with red pepper sauce, saute potatoes and pan fried asparagus. What I got was cauliflower florets in a watery red pepper sauce with very wet carrots, kale and a few new potatoes. The dish was swimming in water. To be fair when I questioned the waitress she did bring me some asparagus but I was told that in the chef's opinion I had been given saute potatoes . Clearly the chef has no idea what sauté potatoes are! I can't believe they charged me for this dish and I certainly will not be returning.

I wouldn't rush back. It's all a bit clinical for my liking. At the time of our visit, the management just lacked any common sense or understanding. We spent a Saturday afternoon there spending a fair bit on food and drink as it's not cheap. After food, the kids wanted a donut, so we popped to Gregg's to get them one. They sat quietly in the beer garden eating them when a rude manager approached us and told us they had to put them away away or leave. I understand the no food and drink from elsewhere policy, but this was just ridiculous. It was a 2 - and 4 year old quietly eating a doughnut whilst we were still spending. Management lacked understanding, compassion, customer service, and just general common sense. For me, there's better places in Poynton with staff that are far more understanding.
