I was in a party of eight for Sunday lunch. The staff were friendly and the service was good. The price of lunch was very reasonable and food was good. We all know carvery can be a bit hit and miss, but my wife actually enjoyed it. We're going back in a few weeks for a birthday lunch.

Sadly this place has gone down hill. I visit once a year for a week and stay at the hotel next door. The restaurant has dropped in many areas. Is dirty. Floors, carpets etc. Empty dishes sit on tables, well after guests have left. On 3 nights our dessert was delivered to the table and our mains plates were still there. Lots of items are off the menu, due to supply issues. It was easier to ask what was available. Staff didn’t check on us or show any attentiveness. Booking was problematic with apparently untrained staff. The manager was also pushy for reviews, highlighting a sign on the desk for nothing less than 5 star reviews on Google. It’s a bit cheeky to be honest. 1st night half the dinner meals arrived and we had eaten our meal fully before we chased the other meals 25mins later and they had been sat on the pass of the kitchen.

We spent the afternoon at the Triumph tour and booked dinner in advanced for 8 people (1 child) The staff were great, the manager was sett8ng up the table as we arrived and as I booked with a child, allocated a space near the play area which was brilliant. The carvery was great, the parsnips and potatoes weren't crispy but were delicious nonetheless. The mash potato was questionable looking so I steered clear but other members said it was nice. Two people had steak and they were fantastic! Bigger than I had anticipated and cooked exactly as ordered. Chips were crispy and all the food came hot. The only grumble we had was the children's portions. We had a 10 year old with us who was over the moon they has spagetti bologna on the menu. When it came, the bowl was the size of a teacup, and for the 'bigger childrens' portion size, it was disappointing. There wasn't alot of sauce, so it was quite dry. He ended up having the Yorkshire puddings which were unlimited, and was thrilled, but that was really the only let down. The carvery has unlimited roast potatos, however they were by the meat, so with a queue of people, they were not easy to access and refill as the vegetables, but still lovely. The chap serving the carvery was very friendly and chaty. We had a great time, and the IPA was smashing. We would definitely come back, however would order an adults meal as opposed to a child meal next time.

The front of house staff are brilliant, friendly and welcoming. The beer does what it should and is obviously well kept. On the whole the food is ok however like all chain pubs they have a tendency to over cook the food and throw it out without any quality control. This is fine on the saver menu but when you’re ordering something more expensive it’s somewhat upsetting. If they could get the kitchen up to the same standards as the front of house though it would be a truly special experience.

I booked a table for a meal at 6.30 and didn't get as far as sitting down. We stood in the booking in queue for 10 minutes and noticed that the person who was booking people in was also cleaning tables in between. The service was dreadful and everyone was complaining. We gave up and walked out, and went to Prezzo which was a far better experience We won't bother coming back.

I’ve visited previously but never took any photos. Unlimited breakfast meals are becoming scarce, so I’m delighted that I’ve found one that isn’t too far away from home. It’s a help-yourself breakfast place. The food is nice for the money you pay. The menu has a selection of hot food, continental, and hot and cold drinks. You can’t complain for £10.99; it is money-saving and delightful.

Nipped in for a hot drink to get out of the rain. We were told all tables were booked and we would need to sit in the bar. My elderly mother has recently had a stroke and we explained to the staff member that she couldn't get up onto the high bar chairs. The manager told us that was our only option or leave, so we did. Clearly they don't cater for disabled people. Never again.

We were staying at the Premier Inn next door so had breakfast there every morning which was great. We decided to dine in one evening during our stay. We got shown to our table, right in the corner with lots of families. We do not have children and because the area we were in was near the play area as you can imagine it was very noisy as children play, that's what they do. It would have been better to have seated us somewhere not so busy. One of the staff did speak to some children as they were just all running around where hot plates were being served. We were asked if we had any allergies to which I have. I was given the book to read and that was that. After sitting there for 20 minutes we realised that we had to go to the bar to order. I did relay this to the barman who apologised. The corner in which we were seated was absolutely freezing, my husband didn't take his fleece off at all and we even noted that one of the waitresses was wearing a fleece jacket. The food came out and it was lovely and hot. Not sure why the air conditioning was on though 🤔

Birthday breakfast for nephew, was sceptical at first on the location choice, but what a great place, beautiful views of the canal and boats, huge garden to enjoy in the summer and a very reasonable price for breakfast. Whilst it’s self service the food was fresh, great tasting and hot. Good strong coffee and as it’s bottomless it’s even better! Well worth a visit if your local.

We went on a Sunday for the all you can eat breakfast. Party of 14 so we did resrve a table before hand. It was busy but the staff were constantly bringing out fresh food so the queue was moving and the wait was not bad. Lots of food choices, hot and cold. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Play area was a bonus for the little kids we had with us, and all the under 12s ate for free. Would definitely recommend

Booked for Sunday carvery for 7 of us. Arrived 10 mins early ans was told table wasn't ready. Ended up being seated 10 mins later than booking and once seated was told carvery had run out. As the main menu selection was not great and we wanted carvery we spoke to a lady who we think was a manager to see if there was anyway we could get carvery and why we wasn't told before being seated that it had ran out. The lady said well I was telling everyone and went off in a huff. Considering she checked us in she didn't tell us so that wasn't true. We decided to leave and because of the service asked for our drinks to be refunded as wasn't staying. The same lady huffed and puffed and eventually agreed. No apologies, didn't seem bothered was more of an inconvenience being there. Don't bother visiting go somewhere else awful.

Visited this place around one month ago with friends for lunch who we hadn’t seen for a while, neither of us are local so decided to meet here as was half way for all of us. We arrived and was greeted by a very snotty lady at the desk where you wait to be seated who quite clearly looked us up and down and spoke down to us leaving us all with a very negative vibe from the get go. Had we have not been with friends at the time then we 100% would not have dined here and would have walked away. It’s a chain pub so wasn’t expecting fine dining but the best thing about the food was the fact it came out to us hot! The standard of quality is I guess as expected however presentation was not there speciality we weren’t expecting a picture on a plate but was also expecting a little bit of pride in the presentation. Personally I don’t think it’s a lot to ask for as a paying customer. It’s safe to say we will NOT be returning here again to waste our money.

Can't fault the food. It's what you expect for this type of establishment but they put their own stamp on it. Affordable and tasty. Wide variety of beverages and refillable sparkling drinks ( coke ect ) On the last 2 occasions I've visited it has been bitterly cold inside which takes away from the warm cosy atmosphere you expect from a pub. Staff are pleasant and welcoming although have witnessed a few incidents with one of the managers and patrons. I guess these things are unavoidable. Parking is iffy, but if you're staying at the hotel then It shouldn't be an issue and if you are just popping in for a quick drink and a bite, if you find parking you must validate your parking inside on the tablet by the restaurant entrance. All in all a nice establishment with all the amenities you expect, and it's right in the canal so on a nice day it's lovely to sit outside and enjoy the boats coming and going.

Cold carvery. We arrived at 12.30 ordered the food and oh dear. Tepid food and cold plates . We mentioned it to a waitress who stated she would let me return to the carvery as fresh hot food was just coming out of the kitchen , the food served should not have been luke warm. We also ordered another few items having checked the allergy menu and paid extra for vegan cheese on a chicken burger as my daughter has severe dairy allergy. The burger arrived in a brioche bun which are not dairy free and without the cheese. All round terrible service , food we couldn't eat and clearly staff not bothered about orders and dietary limitations. When we left I was ready to complain but no staff were visible to speak with. Sadly a total waste of money on food that should have been of a much higher standard , serving tepid food is not acceptable

Here’s your review incorporating the positive aspects: --- **Review:** I was disappointed with the meal. The curry lacked flavor and had barely any chicken, with the rice overcooked. The fish and chips were overdone, and the lasagna was runny, flavorless, and had mushy pasta. On the plus side, the place was clean and had a nice view of the canal. However, overall, it was not a good experience, and I will not be returning.

I have always loved the Royal Arms, because of its location, traditional inn vibe & hospitality, but, this week, I felt compelled to leave a positive review to let people know that they also went above & beyond to accommodate our walking group - no easy task when we all arrive in large numbers at the end of a walk. They managed to serve us with lunch & drinks in a friendly & timely manner, making us feel very welcome. Thank you so much to Anoop - believe me those extra customer service touches don't go unnoticed & are really appreciated.
