Oakeley Arms Bar in Gwynedd - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The food was really poor value for the £17 I paid for a few peas, chips and a slice of pie. The gravy boat took most of the plate up. Rest of food was frozen. Won't be going back.

Great value for money. Good selection of food with lots of specials. Friendly helpful staff. Free parking. Lots of tables.

Called for Sunday lunch for my birthday. Poor staff service. Poor explanation of service. Best points the harpist, and the man serving on the meat station. A very disappointing visit experience. Staff were too eager to take your money before you had even had anything !

Very friendly and helpful staff and owners throughout our stay. Thank you. They were so amenable with bike storage. My room was large, but very old fashioned and a bit dark and dingey. All usual amenities. Bathroom adequate. Bar restaurant area is all fine, but food was disappointing in standard. Just pub food style. Breakfast was nice, with good cooked full English. This is an old Inn, it's dated but still ok.

Booked a week before coming. No table for us when arrived! Staf huffed and puffed and squeesed us in a table sat next to a family with the biggest dog ever! The dog barked and shook his body throughout. Hair and dust splattering around. People with dogs should not sit near people who don't have a dog not fair. Food overly priced. Cajun chkn and bacon disgusting and bland. Fish batter not cooked. Top it all off £8 for a pudding. Don't bother going. No welcome or good food.

£16 for a sandwich. Honest. Look it up. Ridiculous. Didn't order obv. They don't even charge this much in London. Go to The Grapes instead. Lovely.

Not an extensive menu if you're looking for a light lunch, and as someone with special dietary requirements I did struggle to find something.. Eventually I decided on a 'sandwich' which although expensive at 16.99 I could cope with. It was advertised as bring served with chips and salad, neither of which I can eat.. So I asked if I could have JUST the sandwich.. After initially saying no, they then said I COULD have it without chips but that the price would still be the same! Sorry, but I think that's unreasonable. It was expensive to start with, the same price as some of the main meals , but it is what it is. I understand costs, but to charge for something you dont want and can't eat is ridiculous really. Not as if it entailed and extra work either, I was asking to NOT have something. We left without anything shan't be going back 👋. Better places not too far away

We arrived the 4 of us yesterday, to not even a hello off one member of staff . The staff that were there were sat together in the corner of pub to which looks like they were all on a break to one girl sat with her shoe off rubbing her feet !!!! I would never ever come back here , and whole ambience was dreadful , and very unwelcoming !! Such a shame as we only had a round of drinks and was looking forward to a meal ! But we left due to the lack of compassion and total rudeness !!! AVOID !!!!

Stopped for bite to eat after passing many times and thinking the place looked nice. Food was expensive for what was a poor quality meal, mostly cooked from the freezer. Toilets were dirty and whole establishment needed a good clean and some TLC. A shame as looks charming from the outside. Definitely won’t be stopping here again.

We stopped on our way to Barmouth because we where starving and because it looks interesting, So glad we did stop . Awesome food and good portions . Plus the place looks great. It was so good we returned the next day 😊

On our way home we decided to eat here. I had lemon chicken with salad and it was delicious, I want to go again soon. My husband had ribs and chips, that too was delicious. The staff are cheerful and nothing is too much trouble, they really are a brilliant bunch.

Would have been average based on the food, and the staff are quite friendly. However, they insist orders are placed by phone, yet have glacial wifi and mobile data. Why?

We stopped here for a beer at lunchtime. The staff were really friendly and when we saw some of the food being served, we decided to return for an evening meal. We weren't disappointed. I chose the Dragon Burger with fries and onion rings, my wife went for the full rack of ribs. The burger was really tasty with a hint of chilli spice. Perfect. The ribs were outstanding and HUGE. We shared half a rack between us and our dog and took half a rack home in tupperware. Add to this that the price was very reasonable, the Oakley ale was good and, most importantly, the staff were excellent and I'd give it a 6 if I could. They even helped me with my very poor attempt to speak Welsh. We will definitely be returning.

Gotta love the Sunday roasts here. Awesome carvery where you can seriously stack your plate with great quality food Some good beer on tap to wash it down A must stop 👌🏻

we have eaten here before and the meals were fine . this time we ate early , 17-30 and the pub was empty , we both had the prawn cocktail starter which was in too small a dish and the lettuce leaves were whole meaning we had to tip it out onto the plate to cut it up to eat it , the accompanying " bread " was hard and not nice . my wife had steak pie and said it was just ok , i had the chippy fish which was not ,the fish looked ok but it was wet inside and i think it was pre cooked , frozen then microwaved , the peas had two slices of pickle on them which turned them black and cold , the chips , for me were unedible , i tasted one and the taste was not normal . i did not eat the meal and we left .

Amazing food we had driven past so many as going to Porthmadog we ordered pizza for my daughter and ribs for me and halloumi salads all the food was amazing and all reasonable priced. Just over £40.00 including drinks. Will definitely go again.

Friendly and helpful staff for drinks and food. The famous Sunday cavery service is amazing for someone who never had this experience before. The food was delicious and big portions, recommend! Needs to book cavery beforehand otherwise you will need to sit in the beer garden.

Booked 3 rooms.Arrived about 7.15pm on 17/03/23. As kitchen closed at 8pm went straight into restaurant. Could see from menu that most choices were the sort of meals one gets at frozen food counter. All meals were dry & overcooked, bullet hard scampi & dry chips with frozen peas. When we tried to order pudding the kitchen was closed& only persuasion produced a Magnum Ice Cream. Really a most abysmal meal. Although one could order at the bar there was an app to order with- really impersonal. Rooms ok - ours had a shower & toilet en suite but the washbasin was at the other side of the room not ideal. As we were attending a funeral we only asked for toast & marmalade. There was a self service buffet with juices,cereals,bread for toastng which was ok. We were encouraged to see a fairly copious cooked breakfast menu & looked forward to sampling this on Sunday morning. However er it was not to be - on enquiring about breakfast about 9am we were told we could only have the buffet as they were too busy preparing for their Sunday carvery to do any cooked breakfast - this we found totally unacceptable. This is not a cheap or budget hotel but the catering side was dire. On checking out we expressed our discontent with not being able to have a cooked breakfast & were met with a half hearted apology from a staff member who seemed used to uttering such apologies. A totally sub- standard stay, the worst we had experienced anywhere, Europe, USA, Canada & Australasia as well as elsewhere in the the UK for at least a decade. My recommendation is to give the Oakley Arms a wide berth.

Had a lovely stay, just one night, with a lovely fire, warm atmosphere, good food and very comfortable bedroom. Excellent breakfast to start the day's hiking, will definitely stay again, Thankyou

I was working in thev area for 5 months and I called in the Oakeley Arms at least once a week for a drink and food. I could not fault anything, freindley staff, great choice of beer, and really good food at sensible prices.

Booked a table for 2 adults for 2pm arrived 1:50pm showed to table immediately then waited and waited 45 mins past we asked is someone taking our order ? Another 5 mins and someone came we ordered carvery so we paid upfront and had to...

Stayed 3 nights. Food OK, service was a disgrace. Kitchen closing at 20h, and staff tells people queuing at 19h45 that ordering food is not possible anymore. Had to argue the case. No drinks after 20mn while staff said they'd serve at the table, had...

First to last experience was great. Warm, welcoming and Welsh speaking staff, fast service, great food at a reasonable price. WHAT else would you want?

Came here for Sunday lunch. The service was extremely slow and waited 30 minutes just get drinks and then another 40 minutes for our sweets. The staff where the carvery was being served were absolutely lovely, the chef a bit of a comedian, great guy....

Disappointing. Overpriced meal with average food. Staff- chatted just out of eyeline. Loudly and about things that shouldn't be overheard. Starters- squid and ribs. Squid was slightly rubbery and a very small portion for the price. Ribs were ok-overpowering bbq sauce though. Had to scrape...

Found The Oakley when we walked past it with friends and having called in for a beer, we ended up eating here twice. Great pub / restaurant with a comprehensive menu and good specials. All the staff are very friendly and the beers are good....

Lovely warm welcome from all staff. Beautiful place to visit. Food was excellent. Will definitely visit again.

Pre-covid this was out favourite local. First time back in just over 2 years. And what a disappointing experience! Inadequate parking. On arrival, spoke to 3 staff asking for help locating table. Staff unhelpful and clearly overwelmed. Table was not cleaned from previous customers. No...

Absolutely fantastic carvery, best I have had in a long time. All fresh veg, meat was amazing with a choice of different gravy. Staff were really helpful and friendly. Can't wait to go back, highly recommended.

Service was great and food was good. Standard pub grub and great to see vegetarian options available.

Visited Sunday evening as recommended in our self catering cottage as dog friendly. Looked attractive from outside but inside decor tired and tables wobbly. Our food definitely didn't taste freshly prepared. Friendly staff but that's about the only positive.

Confused website and signs say , no bookings taken turn up and queue . On arrival all tables were booked !!! Any case we was offered a table as long as we left within 90mins . Food portions were generous and good , nothing special...

Only had a drink here, but the smell of the sunday roast was lovely and it was very busy. I don't think we would have been able to eat as it was very busy and many reservations. Staff super friendly. Wish we had gone back...

We visited last night as a family of 5 walk in. We ordered our food via the app, straightforward enough. Drinks arrived quickly, however after 1 hour no food. We asked a female staff member who apologised and explained they were very busy. I understood...

Good location and lovely garden, but no local ales on offer, and service was a bit dependent on an unreliable ap.

Having endured the Friday afternoon traffic from across the border, we were a little bit grumpy, hungry and tired as we pulled in outside the Oakeley. I have stayed here several times for work, but not brought the family before. What a lovely warm welcome!...

we were hugely disappointed to be served mostly inedible food including £13 'burgers' that were like rubber and not resembling anything like meat. We spotted it from the road and looked an attractive location with beer garden and children's play area (which was closed,probably due...

Really impressed with the work and planning that had been put in to provide a covered area ( which was busy and full) but also the service to the tables with orders being easily made by app. As complete novices at ordering in this way...

Over the last couple of years this is my third visit. Food is always top notch and good quality. Friendly attentive staff. They also have a dart board and pool table.. ideal place to spend time socialising on a rainy day!

Great selection of food @ drinks. Very friendly attentive staff. Popped into the Oakley after a canyoning expedition for some lunch. Between our group we had burgers, pizza and sandwiches - all were superb and reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

We have been to this restaurant numerous times over the years. Latest September 2020. We have always found it friendly very good food at reasonable prices. For that reason, we are doing this review. We recommend

Wow I did not expect it to be that good. Portion size was really good and the vegetables cooked to perfection. Whoever the chef is who does the Sunday Dinners they need commending as the end result was great. The price was also reasonable. Well done Oakley

stopped off on the way back to digs from a hike. Had a special off the board and was told you get plenty. You get loads and it was lovely. Went back for our last night in the area and wasn't disappointed again.

We've been sorely tempted to join the many travellers who sun themselves on the picnic benches outside this beautiful stone built pub on account of the stunning views. We stopped with our motorhome and checked it would.be okay to stay over if we had one too many which it was. Due to covid we ordered fush n chips and a couple of pints from the app and hey presto a perfect pint of dark ale was delivered within 2 minutes flat! The cleanliness was spot on, tables wiped and hand sanitizer at all doors. I'd seen various reviews about the timeliness and quality of food but ours arrived within 15 mins of ordering on a bank holiday Monday teatime. The battered fish was incredible, very meaty, tasty and hugely filling. Highly recommended this place for a stay or food. Staff very friendly and a beautiful view, 10 mins from the coast and though there was no eat out government offer we paid £31 to share a starter, two pints and two mains. Great value.

The pub itself is very nice, it has a cosy feel to it and is quiet relaxed, even at the height of Covid. The staff members were polite enough and all be it very busy, one lady in particular was very friendly and chatty.The food was overall was unfortunately average, I ordered the house burger, the whole thing was great apart from the patty... it was this huge chunk of dry beef, probably like 3-4 inches thick, completely unseasoned, absolutely ridiculous. It would of been better if they just had 1-2 thin patty’s instead.My partner ordered a cheesy pasta, it was pretty OK, all be it a little bland. We come back the next day to have pizza because we couldn’t get in anywhere else (because of the eat out to help out deal).We went with pizza because we thought it would be something that they couldn’t really mess up, and my goodness was this a bad pizza. The main issue is it has no tomato base, I lifted the layers of cheese to look for it and it just wasn’t there. We were going to take some home but decided in the end to just leave the leftovers.Overall a nice pub, in and nice area with lovely staff, but the lack of good pub food really lets it down. The people in the kitchen really need to step up if they want people to return.

Arrived mid-hike with friends for lunch. We sat at a table outside, used the automated ordering service for food & drinks. Drinks arrived within minutes. Service was excellent, Food was superb, super impressed following a disappointing visit 2 years ago. The pub has improved greatly since then, the outside area/garden is now lovely, we will definitely be back!!

As the first meal out since March we were hugely disappointed to be served mostly inedible food including a frisbee like plastic pizza, £13 'burgers' that were like rubber and not resembling anything like meat. They came with caramelised onions which was just onion marmalade and not a good burger addition. We were asked if it was okay and explained politely our objections, the waitress said sorry about that and we were charged full price. We spotted it from the road and looked an attractive location with beer garden and children's play area (which was closed,probably due to covid to be fair). In short we left feeling overcharged for less than mediocre food and that they obviously trade well from tourists who are not likely to visit again!

Lovely setting and a nice pub. Dining and bar area nice and clean but toilets obviously hadn't been tended to all day. No welcome on arrival and due to Covid countermeasures we needed to book in but no space left on the sheet. I advised the staff and after a 2 hour stay, the sheet still hadn't been replaced. Had to search for our own table which was far too small for a family of 4 and on the main thoroughfare to the toilets and car park. Sat there staring at larger vacant tables throughout our stay whilst other guests and staff passed within half a metre of us. Five members of staff walked past us at least 4 times each like we didn't exist but spent lots of time talking to other staff and, presumably, regulars. Had to book food via an online app but had to work this out for ourselves from a chalk board on display. Food delivered promptly after booking but without a hint of courtesy. Nut roast was excellent, gammon was big but dry, house "black" burger was like a wholesaler bought product and none of the staff could really explain what 'black burger' was, despite asking the 'chef', not what you expect for nearly £13. Lots of fresh side salad and chips but chunky chips were the darker side of brown and overdone. Bar staff didn't have much of a clue either, served a rhubarb gin in a G&T and thought that Oxford Gold might be local, but we'd given up by then. No local beers on offer, shame to see them not supporting Welsh producers. In summary, nice pub, ok for drinks but, at best, average food at premium prices and poor service.

Lovely Hotel, enjoyed a lovely meal with the family, due to covid we had to book as it was outside dinning only and we wanted to be under the gazebo in case it began to rain. Service was excellent, meals well presented, everyone enjoyed their meals. When back in North Wales we would definately book a meal here again.

Have been coming to the area for 15 years and living here for 3, but for some reason have never eaten at the Oakley Arms! Came here with visiting friends this week and had a fantastic meal. There was a great menu choice (especially so, considering the current Covid situation...), the food arrived quickly and was of excellent quality. The four of us had different meals and they were all very good. So that's pasta bake, pizza, smoked salmon and "chippy fish" all getting a big thumbs up from us!Everything was incredibly well organised and there was a smashing young lad looking after our table who couldn't do enough for us. Thank you all!

This place has a large outdoor seating area with umbrellas and lights which is perfect for dinner/ drinks through COVID-19.You are able to order both food and drinks through an app which is great to minimise contact. The fish and chips were amazing! Fish was so tasty and the chunky chips are all homemade.Drinks a bit pricey (£7 for a large wine) but food no more than everywhere else.

I had lunch today at the oakeley arms and was very disappointed, I had a gourmet sandwich halloumi and roasted veg served with chunky chips. The bread was wet and soggy on the bottom and the chips were ( tasted like yesterday's ) worm and a bit tough. My friend had a gourmet sandwich also and she took her coleslaw back because it smelt funny and tasted off , no member of staff came back to us to apologise. I have had lovely food in the past and the carvery on Sunday's were great so I don't know what happened today but it's put me off from going again

Excellent carvery with possibly best choice ever seen Choice of meats you pick 2 Omg the lamb so tasty and beautifully cooked lovely and soft Great choice of veggiestoo Lovely eston mess we shared What a great find thanks for a lovely lunch

Four of us called for drinks on a rainy Monday evening. A real fire made us feel warm and welcome. There are “bar funnies” (signs and posters) that made us smile.Sadly a rather disappointing selection of real ales (Pedigree and a Ringwood) - a better selection would be very welcome.

Let’s start with a positive. The food was really nice. We had booked a table earlier in the day so they knew we were coming, we arrived on time but it took a while for someone to greet us and show us to our table. We pointed it out to them and were basically left to get on with it.We placed our order at 20.10, the food eventually arrived at 21.25 after having to chase up the order. The girl who took the order was unenthusiastic and gave no indication that there would be a lengthy wait. It became obvious after a while that they were well behind with orders but we were not approached by anyone to let us know this or offer some nibbles to keep the hunger pangs at bay.A disappointing last night to the holiday: good food but the service leaves a great deal to be desired.

Visited while staying in Blaenau Ffestiniog. Great pub food with decent real ale and not expensive. Well worth a visit if in the area.

The exterior has been tidied up and some of the interior, certainly better than two years ago. We ate here last week, the meal was okay but expensive. I would be more inclined to eat at the Oakley Arms, more frequently, if the meals were less expensive.

Vandaag hier gaan eten met twee personen. De serveersters die rond liepen vonden het teveel moeite om te lachen of gedag te zeggen. Het eten dat we bedeelden stond erg snel op tafel, maar ik vond het echt smakeloos. We hadden een welsh stew besteld, maar ik vond het meer een pannetje met wat water, aardappel en wat vlees, zonder enige smaak.Het brood wat erbij geserveerd werd was ook niet vers. Nee... dit was niet voor herhaling vatbaar.

Delicious food. Slightly understaffed on the bar as we had to wait 20 minutes to get served there, no tomato sauce and staff were a bit slow and one staff member called the steak vegan/vegetarian(???) when in fact it was gluten free.

Booked a table for friends. Arrived , paid at the bar for Sunday dinner and drinks. (1 2 or 3 course) seated, atmosphere great, staff efficient, amazing huge choice for carvery, have been back 3 times. Really is a good choice for the area. Value for money and really is very nice food.

As a coeliac I have travelled all over the UK and been heartened at improvements in awareness of the condition and the increased availability of gluten free options on menus. Sadly a recent week spent in Porthmadog suggested this awareness has not reached North Wales. I had the worst week of eating out that I’ve had for a long time and the Oakley Arms was one of the worst. No GF options were marked on the menu so I asked at the bar where I was handed a lever arch file and left to figure it out for myself. Each dish was listed along the top of the page with big green ticks indicating the presence of various allergens. There were no starters available to me and I was beginning to think there were no main courses either having turned through several pages of green ticks in the “gluten” column before finally finding the single gluten free main course, which proved to be a piece of chicken and vegetables drowned in a pool of a bland, white, cream sauce. I thought they had redeemed themselves with my favourite dessert of Eton Mess being listed as GF but when it arrived it was without the meringue as they had discovered that was not gluten free. Such a negative dining experience is very disappointing. I thought the hospitality trade was more enlightened in 2019.

Visited here with my partner on 20th July and had a nice meal. The young lad on the bar was really friendly and efficient. I had the woodland chicken which was tasty and my partner had a rambler sandwich with fries, it looked lovely and he really enjoyed it, only one small issue, he said his fries could of been hotter. We will return for another meal next time we are in the area.

A top-notch Sunday carvery here at a great price with a fantastic dessert. A very welcoming pub and cosy pub/hotel in Snowdonia, the staff were friendly and it was lovely to hear the Welsh staff speak Welsh to some of the customers. Highly recommended.

Whilst staying locally in Blaenau Festiniog we was recommend this place to eat and what a lovely place it was too. Service was good and the food was ample. Particularly enjoyed the welsh stew with artisan bread (yum yum). The atmosphere was relaxed and staff more than helpful.

Better than average Pub food served with a smile. Good beer. We bought 3 different dishes, all standard pub food done well.

this Hotel/restaurant was recommended whilst on holiday in North Wales, excellent food great service we stayed in Maentwog so this was very local literally 5mins highly recommend

überraschend gutes ,reichhaltiges Essen zu absolut fairen Preis ,richtig lecker Wings , Freies Parken auch für Wohnmobile genug platz , echt gut echt lecker echt ein MUSS

The food and beers are famous throughout the area and is very popular among locals and holiday makers alike . Warm welcome , spotlessly clean and with plenty of parking. We are already frequent visitors and will continue to be ..

The Oakley sits in a very prominent position - you cant miss it! They accept dogs, and although you are restricted to the bar area, this is absolutely no detriment, as its just as good if not better than some restaurants. Good portion sizes, quick service, and tasty food. A good experience, so recommended.

Had an overnight stay with our 2 young grandchildren Check in was relaxed and straightforward staff very friendly and helpful The children loved the huge room and bathroom All was extremely clean a credit to the housekeeper The room was warm and comfortable. We had supper which was lovely served quickly and hot. Breakfast the next morning WOW lovely hot really freshly cooked and the local sausages and bacon were a meal in themselves! Thank you for a cracking stay the children loved it . We will be back .

This pub offers in my opinion the best Sunday carvery for many miles. Good quality food cooked to a high standard. A very good selection and generous portions. Excellent value.

Best Sunday carvery in miles! Best staff and always good food. Always clean plates. We will be returning soon and more often.

The food here was delicious, you could tell that all the foods was fresh and made from scratch. We felt very comfortable and would strongly recommend to families. They also allowed us to bring our dog. Staff were very kinda and helpful. Lastly the environment itself was very homely, has a lovely garden area with a fantastic view. 5 star rating is definitely the way to go.

This was a very disappointing meal and not cheap. We sent food back because it was cold - when it came back it was not much better - it certainly hadn’t been remade - just the chips warmed up. The onion rings were full of fat and the ribs over cooked. Chicken Caesar salad was warm with too much sauce and next to no salad leaf. I rarely leave poor reviews but this was just an awful meal.

1st time I have visited for a carvery. One of best carvery I have had in a very long time. Plenty of choice of meat and veg. Was also delicious would recommend and will return soon!

really tasty food and good service, friendly bar staff and cosy atmosphere. dog friendly too! we had the scotch egg, fish cakes, mussels and lamb shank. all clean plates!

After a long day cycling, looked in here on recommendation and although it might need a bit of refreshment at some point, it felt nicely rustic. What was amazing though was the food - I had a chicken burger with a yogurt dip and it was absolutely gorgeous. My son had the fish and chips and we argued over whether the French invented chunky chips or not, thoroughly enjoying ourselves!

Absolutely loved it here,reasonably priced.

Very charming bar and restruant. Warm and cozy for an wet week. It was nice to have the fire and the food was good and hot. A great place compared to the other options in the area. be sure to check out each of the rooms as they all have a differnt setup and be sure to find the Naughty chair.

After my last visit here I said I'd never go back, but my daughter had said the food was a lot better (she visited in the summer). I should have kept my own thoughts about the place, as AGAIN the food was not cooked, the ribs my wife and I had were inedible, we complained and they offered us dessert!! FFS we wanted a meal we could eat not bloody dessert and at £15 each I would have expected it, but they just walked away and never came back!! Our friend meal looked ok when it arrived but, on closer inspection the meat that was not under the crust of the pie was burnt and also inedible, and she only managed to eat half of the meal. I now think they have different chefs for summer and off season, and the off season chef is possibly the cleaner, as she cant cook!

Visited the Oakley Arms 3 -10-18 and we couldn't fault it at all. We had the Hunters Chicken and the Turkey and Ham pie and they were both beautifully cooked and presented. We also had the syrup sponge and custard and the Oakley Eton mess which I had which was fantastic. Have eaten here before and would definitely eat here again it is my favourite eating place. Thank you.

We thought we would give this pub another go as it had fallen out of favour with us, but glad we did. The staff were welcoming, the service very efficient and we both chose Lobscouse (haven't had this in years) which was very tasty. It looked like it had undergone a bit of an upgrade and was all the better for it. Well done. We'll be back.

Reading some bad reviews we thought we would try it anyway. Not a bad decision. Nice beer, fine house smoked salmon and also the main course was good. Nothing fancy but definitely not less than any other restaurants we went to. Give it a try.

Me and my husband visited today and wow what a gem...amazing food, meat and veg was fantastic. We had pudding aswell and they were fantastic too but couldn’t eat it all I’m afraid. Lovely place and staff friendly and helpful. Thank you we will be back.

Had a meal at the Oakeley Arms on a recent trip to Wales. Great food,atmosphere and well priced. Also every Tea or Coffee ordered gets a free Cup Cake (Bonus)

A very wet August Bank Holiday Sunday made brighter by a fabulous meal. Despite being very busy there was plenty of choice and nothing was to much trouble for the staff.

Enjoyed lunch here last week with family; we all really enjoyed the food, but then we always do. Will go back.

We ate here recently and had quite a nice meal. Standard pub grub burger and chips and a lasagne.
