The Baker's Arms in Herefordshire, County of

Superb food and service with a great choice. This is now called The Maidenhead so a bit confusing finding it on this site!!!

Excellent food. Fine beer. Pleasant efficient service.Dog friendly in parts of pub so when booking a table let them know you are bringing your four legged friend.

The food here is really very good indeed, and there is enough of it so that you have an excellent and filling meal. It is not especially cheap, but good value for what you get. Other tables were filled with parents and well-behaved children, and parts of the floor with well-behaved dogs. On the whole it was an extremely pleasant dining experience. It would be churlish to remove a star for the absence of any menu on the website...

First time at this great find just down the road from a holiday site we were looking at. Excellent food and service. i had the fish & chips and a beef bourguignon both were Great .Very welcoming staff, Will be certainly back soon

I am a big foodie I enjoy my food so when you get a great meal at an unexpected venue its a lovely surprise. We were taking my Mother out to lunch for Christmas and the Maidenhead is local to her home. I ordered the chicken breast with wild mushrooms and wow what a great meal! Roasted veg lots of chicken and the dark jus absolutely finished it all off. My wife had the Stilton and Mushroom Wellington and Mum had the cod and chips which all looked great as well. Sadly I didn't get any photo's as I was too busy devouring the meal !

Lovely meal. Good portions. Nice staff. we were the only two in the restaurant for most of the meal which makes you wonder why but it was early in the week. Cannot fault service, staff or food. Enjoyable evening. Very reasonably priced. Not a huge menu but suited us.

Stopped at the Maidenhead for lunch after a lovely countryside walk. Food was fantastic - soup was delicious and served with a wedge of focaccia. Tasty mains and puds to die for! Washed down with a couple of pints and definitely ready for the long walk ‘home’ again to our little cottage in the woods! Definitely recommend the Maidenhead.

Warm welcome, good beer. Nice atmosphere… but Food average. My 14 year old son ordered a chicken pie. This arrived 15 mins after the the other 4 in our parties food. The chicken pie was still frozen in the middle. For me serving frozen chicken to anyone is a no no and represents a food safety issue. Having asked to speak to the owner directly to address this and to be fair he came to discuss my complaint but the way he spoke to me as a customer was far from satisfactory. They waived the charge of the pie but for me this fell some way short of addressing the real concerns around food safety. The discussion soon became heated and hostile and we left very disappointed.

We stopped off for our tea after a day out sight seeing. We pass this pub on the way back to the cottage we've rented for a holiday. We were welcomed as if we were locals, always a nice touch. We had drinks in the bar area and then were shown into the dining room, which was beautifully set up with candles and mini vases of wild flowers and herbs. We had a trio of goodies from the Maiden Mix and a portion of the messy fries. All delicious. The coffee creme brulee with home made shortbread was fab, as was my husband's peach and vanilla cheesecake. All of the staff were cheery, helpful and efficient. Thanks for a lovely meal, and a great end to our day out.

We visited here to be our family vacation. The weather was hot and the pub was full of life. We booked a table in advance for the beer garden as the weather forecast to be warm and we had our dog with us. Table was lovely in the shade and the garden was well tended with bright flowers. Food was just pub food, nothing fancy and wouldn’t have wanted to pay anymore. The staff were friendly.

Came for lunch with friends and our dog. Lovely welcome, good service, tasty food and fab outside space. So good, we came back for drinks in the evening. Can't believe we've never come across this gem before. Also known as The Maidenhead. Well worth checking out

Truly awful. Starter of ‘garlic’ mushrooms on dry toast was surpassed by a dry chicken burger with four chips. You have to be congratulated on the worse puddings to be served anywhere in the locality. Just a pity the prices don’t match the low quality of food.

Went here with some family at the start of March. Has a good car park, the food was excellent, they had a good selection of drinks and the service was good. Would recommend.

Nicely decorated, looked recently refurbished pub with some unique local antique items displayed around the pub and restaurant. We ate in the restaurant area and there was a good menu choice with dishes to suit all tastes. Between the 3 of us we enjoyed the chicken skewers, gammon steak and fish and chips. For dessert I particularly enjoyed the gingerbread ice cream. My husband said that it was the best pint of Hobson's Best he has had in the area. Friendly service from everyone and lots of parking Would definitely return.

My husband and I met some friends here for lunch, a place found purely by chance. What a wonderful place. The sun had decided to come out, making it too hot to leave our large black dog in the car. He was welcomed inside (to a designated area) and given a bowl of water and some treats. Being a young dog he tended to spread himself out a bit, but the staff didn't mind, and carefully walked round him! The food was amazing. A goats cheese salad starter was made into a main meal with no qualms, and changing mash and bread to chips was no hassle either. The beef bourguignon was really tasty, the fish and chips were enormous, and the puddings really good too! 10/10 thank you!

Firstly I was taken by how well used this pub is with a good mix of young and old clientele. We went for dinner in their restaurant, which is nicely spaced out. The food was excellent as was the service. Nice selection of beers and wine. The Maiden Mess dessert was lush. Also a great selection of cheeses.I will return to the Maidenhead.

Visited the Maidenhead twice over the weekend and both times found the staff and food to be brilliant. Will be back next year when we visit the area again.

Guided by the Camra Good Beer Guide, Saturday lunchtime found us here. Very pleased . Chicken skewers. Flatbread clearly made here, green hummus, kimchi likewise. priced fine. great beer n wine list. Partner scampi -:equally good.

We dropped in on a Thursday evening without a reservation. The restaurant was fully booked but we were able to order food in the bar. Really friendly and accommodating hosts; fish and chips and steak and ale pie both excellent. Will be back, for sure.

The Maidenhead is definitely worth a visit. The new owners are warm and friendly and very welcoming. Went there with my elderly parents and we all had a sandwich. Price wise it's not cheap but personally I am more than happy to pay a bit extra for an excellent lunch. The chips were divine, dad had the beef sandwich, mum and hubby had the sausage sandwich, sausages were local and very tasty, I had the ceaser salad which had a very generous portion of chicken.We ate outside in a gazebo and we all throughly enjoyed our lunch. So much so we will be going back next week to celebrate my dad's 92nd birthday. Thank you both so much, lunch was superb.

Now called The Maidenhead, we had a lovely meal. I was particularly impressed with the vegetarian and vegan options, as these can be quite limited. Friendly service.

Food very tasty, but sea bass meal very small, literally a few mouthfuls . Senior waitress not very friendly. Sticky toffee pudding was lovely .

Just back from a mini break nearby, booked a few weeks before, massive garden but we were in the terrace, food was lovely we went for loaded fries with pulled pork, really large portion could have shared, very slick good staff, will be back and recommend a visit

Visited during a camping trip in the area, called ahead and got a good feeling about the welcome awaiting us - wasn't disappointed. Very warm and friendly family run establishment, wood fired pizzas on a Monday night when the kitchen staff have their night off is a nice touch (and delicious), there's a vintage tractor for the kids to climb on and a lovely large garden to relax in and the beer and cider are well kept and served at perfect temperature. Owner even helped us out of a pickle and donated us an old high chair when we realised we should have packed one for our trip!! Will definitely be back and recommend to all visiting the area.

We stopped off for lunch en route to Mid Wales. Dog-friendly and delicious freshly cooked food, apparently much from local suppliers. The weather was good, so we sat outside under the wooden ‘gazebo’. Nice friendly, relaxed atmosphere which is exactly what we were looking for. Would definitely recommend.

Went here yesterday afternoon / early evening for family meal and watch the football. Excellent service and the food was superb. Owner was friendly to us and even offered my kids free lollipops as he saw my youngest daughter crying as she was tired. Our first but definitely not the last visit here for us. Robinsons cider on draught was icing on the cake. 10/10 for our visit.

What a great pub. Sat in the garden, enjoyed a lovely meal freshly made, served by friendly attentive staff. I enjoyed the fennel and goats cheese salad followed by a veggie burger. My husband had mackerel followed by wild garlic tagliatelle.

Popped in here on the way from Leominster to Ludlow on a dreary December day. Met by friendly staff and a wonderful proper fire. Lunchtime menu and snacks really good value and warmed us all up. Would definitely go back and try again.

Up to recently the beer at the Bakers Arms was good, but sadly the quality has recently gone down hill, a bit like the bar service, quite rude, unprofessional and somewhat miserable. Sadly disappointing.

We were here a couple of months ago and although it's still a lovely country pub, we were very sorry and disappointed with the bar service. Sadly we gathered the previous guy has gone and it's not quite the same.

Was going to go for an early evening drink at the beginning of the week but opening hours seem to be somewhat erratic. Do check first!! Difficult to rate so ignore stars.

Roast Herefordshire beef with all the trimmings here is superb. The chef presents food beautifully and obviously uses great suppliers. The vegetables were seasoned just perfectly with hints of wholegrain mustard and honey glaze.We also partook of the children's menu: chargrilled chicken with handocut chips and a finger salad.Friendly staff completed the picture.Highly recommended.

Well run village pub . Most of the menu is steaks and homemade burgers which are outstanding.Excellent real ales that change regularly.Quiz night Wednesdays.

Food here was very nice, home cooked and fresh. Portion sizes great too. Staff all very friendly and helpful.

Popped into this bar just for a quick bite to eat and ended up having two courses!! All the food was freshly made and tasted delicious, especially the plum and ginger crumble. Will definitely return to try the ploughman’s as I saw it being served to the next table!

We called here over the Bank Holiday weekend having seen an advertising poster in Ludlow. The inn looks lovely from the outside, has a lovely cozy atmosphere and has been beautifully renovated with much charm and character. The beers are fantastic, especially the Old Prickly ale and the food and service are both excellent. The menu is great, with food cooked to order so it took a little longer, but what they do, they do very well, and was well worth the wait. Definitely will return again when in the area.

Having seen an advert we visited here on the way from Ludlow and discovered a proper country pub, beams, lovely lounge and dining area, and amazing outside area!Nice friendly service from the barman (with the beard), and nothing was too much trouble. Excellent food and a very good selection of beers and ciders.It's just a shame we don't live locally, otherwise we'd visit here regularly.Would certainly recommend here.

Disappointing visit, we have never visited here before and unfortunately I do not think we will be back, we pass this place on our way to visit friends in Kingsland and thought we would treat them to some supper one evening - as neither drive these days and we thought it would be a nice treat for them. We had not booked and we dropped in off the off chance of a table and we were made to feel really uncomfortable for not booking in advance (by the owner?) The pub was not that busy with only a few tables being taken, we ordered our food enjoyed a glass of wine (which was the best part of the visit) and waited and waited! nearly an hour went past and the waitresses looking like they were there for a social catch up (and it was apparent that the waitress did not get on with the owner behind the bar, this made for a negative atmosphere) made no attempt to keep us updated or even offer to get us some more drinks from the bar - when the food did arrive it was good and obviously freshly prepared but just too long a wait and service was very poor - maybe it was just an off day but the whole experience from poor service and a very long wait will stop us visiting again.

3 of us arrived at 1.50pm asked if we could order food and we were told we could but there would be a delay as they had just taken an order for 7 people 40 minutes later ( timed ) we got our food. It was very good not sure what they would do if they got busy. Will try again.

We often stop for Saturday sandwich, however have recently had two Sunday lunches on both occasions excellent, highly recommended.

Bar staff extremely rude Also was rude to the lovely waitress who seemed to be doing all the work. Maybe he was the owner!

Lunchtime meal, freshly prepared and we'll presented, polite staff , lovely beer garden on a sunny day

Absolutely disgusting.went there for Sunday dinner and there was a bug crawling on the beef on my plate. No apology from the manager. Rude staff. Definitely give this place a miss it's an absolute disgrace

Plenty of choice for lunch soup was homemade and chicken and grape sandwich delicious. Service a little slow but it was worth the wait

Called here with a friend for a quick sandwich and drink at lunchtime. The staff were polite and friendly. Sandwich came with a side salad which was a lovely little salad and not just half of tomato with a bit of lettuce but a range of salad ingredients, delightful. I chose to have my sandwich on brown bread and it was very tasty, the bread was really nice, how come I never seem to be able to buy bread like this in the shops? I had coffee as was driving and my friend had a glass of wine. The gardens of this pub were really nicely kept and outside seating is great, pity the weather was not better as we would have sat outside. Will definitely go again.

We enjoyed a very nice meal on our first visit. The only negative was the time it took to serve us.

We called in on a Saturday afternoon, although advertised as dog friendly that only applies to one side of the bar, and there were no tables available meaning we had to sit outside, not particularly warm. The food was great but took far too long to arrive for what it was, some smoked salmon and a chicken and bacon burger. Nice pint of Three Tuns.

Had the most amazing meal ! Had to wait awhile but was apparent everything home cooked ! Prices really good , service very friendly . Would definitely visit again when we are next in area !

Small menu but superb Everything seems home made and light Came away extremely impressed Great locals all very friendly and lovely location , certainly will be back

We live in Ludlow and have never been here before but wow we were so impressed with the food!

This is a beautiful country pub with very friendly staff to welcome us.

We were struggling to find a pub on a Sunday not doing just Sunday lunch. Luckily we stumbled across The Bakers Arms. Fantastic choice and friendly staff. Ordered cauliflower and blue cheese soup to then have serious ploughman’s envy!!

On Sunday we called here in passing having seen an sign outside advertising Sunday lunch.

Called at The Bakers Arms for Sunday lunch for the first time. An impressive pub with a traditional feel and nice atmosphere. The barman gave us a lovely friendly welcome, treating us like regulars. It was good to discover somewhere concentrating on local produce and quality ingredients. An excellent pint of beer accompanied one of the best Sunday Roasts we've ever had, perfectly cooked local beef with all the trimmings, and great value at £12.99. The Bakers Arms is a hidden gem well worth finding.

This place in rural Herefordshire is of exceptional presentation. It has had much investment and the establishment is nice where ever you look from bar, toilets and surrounding beer garden which is capable of a wedding venue or beer and music festival. The bar is very stocked with real ales (many local ales from Hobsons, Ludlow brewery, Clun brewery etc) some great Italian and English lagers and ciders of various sweetness. The beauty of this place is it is packed with local people who chose to meet and discuss their individual situations. The food is fantastic and all cooked fresh - this takes more time so if you want fast food this isn’t the place for you. Similar to the Italian slow food movement you have to wait for delightful things. Strongly recommend the pate.

The Bakers Arms is outside the centre of Orleton, on the B road from Ludlow to Leominster/Mortimer's Cross. It has plenty of parking. On the Thursday evening we visited, it was very quiet with only one other table occupied. The menu offered plenty of choice and there was also a specials board with further starters and main courses. We both chose King Prawns in garlic sauce as a starter - very tasty with slabs of delicious nutty bread. For the main course my companion (a vegetarian) selected the Nut Roast, whilst I had the Lasagne, with more of the (home made?) bread and vegetables. All the food was nicely cooked and well presented and the house wine was of good quality. The service was friendly. With food so good, I can't understand why a Thursday night was so quiet.

This is a friendly busy local pub.We were given a warm welcome at the bar.We ate at the pub and chose Rump steak and Gammon.I first thought the price was a little expensive but when tasting the food it was well worth the money.I had the Gammon and it was the best I have had.My wife had the Rump steak and it was cooked to perfection.I would definitely visit again.

Excellent service and very good Guinness. The garlic prawn starter was gorgeous with fresh bread and lovely butter. Gammon and a burger mains again excellent with really good chips and extra relishes. Fresh smelling toilets too.

What a fabulous place to spend Christmas! We decided this year to eat out on Christmas day for the first time. The Baker's Arms is a lovely traditional English pub and proved nice and cosy on Christmas day.

We went for Xmas dinner and it was a long wait and very expensive for what we received .the waitress was on her own and she was very welcoming and kid of saved the day . Wouldn’t recommend Xmas day meal there but the pub was nice and staff was friendly

I visited The Bakers Arms on a Friday evening for a beer. On arrival to be greeted by a barman (short middle-aged guy) - “greeted” used in the loosest of terms as there was no greeting, no hello or even a nod. On the plus there was a great selection of real ales which I begun to look over however this rude barman stood over me glaring at me whilst I would have liked a minute to make my choice this made me feel uncomfortable, so I just picked a beer. I ordered my beer with a please, he says nothing and walked off, returned with my pint, I give him the money, gave a thank you and am met with silence. I’m no stranger to a subdued reception coming from a busy city, pleases and thank can be few and far between especially in big bars, however this does not excuse general niceties. This barman’s behaviour with other customers wasn’t much better, but I have no idea why he was like this with me, I was not drunk, maybe he didn’t like my accent.

You see a board on the side of the road advertising a favourite beer...it looks nice.....you return after going home for your supper....and you can see staff i side....but the pub is shut!!!! Thanks for the wasted trip....the Dalwey Arms got my money instead....very poor!

It was getting on for lunch time and as some relative's of mine used to bring their caravan to the bakers arm (when it was known as the Maidenhead, it's previous name), they wanted to revisit this establishment to rekindle old memories.

Olde world traditional English pub. Plenty of parking space. Quaint bar area and eating area which is separate. Good atmosphere with good selection of Beers and Wine. Service was good albeit the prices for food was at the top end for this type of establishment. Worth a visit if for no other reason than to sample the T Bone steak. Excellent!

We popped at Sunday lunch just on the off chance of having a meal. The friendly barman was able to find us a table and was both attentive and very helpful. Service was good, our lunch was excellent leaving us both stuffed. One of the best Sunday lunches we've had in a long time. We'd definitely recommend The Bakers Arms.

Having heard locally that changes were taking place at The Bakers Arms, we visited for the first time in over six months. On arrival we discovered a very pleasant atmosphere, and a received a friendly welcome by the barman Dave, We both like our real ale, and it was good to find someone who helpfully described the ales available. The guy obviously likes his beer and his passion was evident. On his recommendation I tried the guest beer from Hop and Stagger Brewery whilst my wife played safe with Hobsons Best. The first thing we both noticed was a noticeable improvement in the quality of beer from the last time we were here. The guest ale was very enjoyable, and my partner said that hers was best she'd had in a long time. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and will definitely be back again. Keep up the good work!

We were staying in Shropshire for two weeks, with friends followed by family catch-ups planned we chose to eat at the The Baker’s Arms twice.

My husband and I have just visited here for the first time and have to say the meal was outstanding. The waiter and waitress are an asset to the business and ensured we were looked after. Lovely atmosphere all round and would highly recommend visiting here. The Chef is amazing and everything was cooked to perfection. We will definitely be visiting again. Thankyou

The four of us went for a Saturday evening meal. There was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant with an excellent choice of food from the menu. Two people chose the fish pie which was delicious. One had the rump steak which was cooked as ordered. I had the lasagne. Having eaten the same dish extensively in Italy I was worried what it would taste like in an English pub. I needn’t have been concerned. It was tasty and full of flavour. I could close my eyes and think I was eating in Rome! We enjoyed some wine with the meal and found the final bill very acceptable. Service was efficient and friendly. My only one small criticism is that the menu cards were a bit shoddy and should be replaced.

Local village pub which was very busy which is always a good sign and encouraging for the community. The menu is limited but I always prefer fewer things done well than lots of options done poorly. The food was fine, as was the beer and the friendliness of the staff. The only criticism is the very slow service, over an hour between order and food delivery. As I said they were busy but equally we were hungry!

We ate here a couple of times whilst on holiday nearby. Excellent food. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere.

Back again as visiting our horse. A big thank you to Katie, Jackie and all the staff at the Bakers Arms. They always go the extra mile looking after us even making our favourite dessert The Bakers Mess. We cannot thank you enough for always making us so welcome Food 5 star as usual.

my partner and I ate here on Saturday, we started with the steaks which were cooked to perfection .the home made chips were delicious and the salad side was crisp and fresh followed by the strawberry pavlova , lovely tasty meringues and strawberries, the young lady with the dark hair and glasses that served us was an excellent example to the hospitality industry, smiling and courteous, the location is fantastic ,we ate inside but some customers were eating in the garden and it looked delightful will we return? one hundred per cent yes! oh and the toilets were very clean too!

Husband and I plus our two dogs had a great meal at the Baker's Arms on Friday night. We both had the gammon and home cooked chips and it was fantastic, dogs had the complimentary biscuits. A very enjoyable evening and would recommend.

I took a client here for a light lunch recently and we had a great time; the food was delicious and the entertainment from Smiley Sally and Terrific Teegan made our day. Thoroughly recommended for quality, friendliness, ambience and delicious food. I'll be back! You should try it sometime!

The Bakers arms is an old pub/restaurant steeped in history. Staff and punters friendly and welcoming. We were provided with delicious home cooked food, not a lot of choice for a vegetarian but we had

Came here with my husband parents and two children. Food was lovely and home made made it tastier however we waited a very long time for both our mains and puddings. Staff very friendly but service was very slow from the kitchen.

Stopped here for lunch on our way to National Trust's Croft Castle. We arrived about 12.45pm at which point there was only one other table occupied. The menu was quite extensive with something to suit everyone. Our drinks were brought promptly by a smiling young waitress whilst we tried to choose what to have. My husband decided on the fish of the day from the specials board and I couldn't resist the sound of the fish pie. We didn't have to wait too long for our meal to arrive. My husband had a generous portion of smoked salmon which came with two or three different kinds of home baked rustic bread and pats of local butter. There was also a side salad plus three different dips. His verdict was "very good". My generous portion of fish pie was crammed with chunks of smoked fish, hake, salmon and king prawns. It was very moist and topped with a golden lid of creamy mash. There was also a salad garnish and some of the delicious rustic bread. We really enjoyed our choices. Despite the fact that we were already full our lovely smiling waitress tempted us to dessert by bringing the homemade pudding blackboard and we gave in to temptation. I had the banoffee sundae - this was easily 11 out of 10 as I love toffee and caramel dishes and my husband had his choice of mixed ice cream with a chocolate flake.

Great lunch here today, Thai curry was very good indeed, rare for a pub to get right. Succulent, flavourful and well presented by friendly staff. Rosie’s dressed crab and plentiful bread and butter a big success too. Dessert was a beautiful cherry cheesecake and vanilla ice cream, truly delicious. Will certainly eat here again

Sunday 12th August, booked a table here as gets very busy we hear and have to say from the pleasant warm welcome onto delightful settings inside and out through to ( and here's the best bit ) the real homemade food is absolutely amazing from presentation to taste it was perfect 100%. The waitress was a true professional and enjoyed her job obviously being so well spoken and polite . Huge complements to the chef and everyone making this establishment and amazing place to come to . I had the beef Sunday roast followed by cherry cheesecake and was probably one of the very best Sunday roasts ive ever had thank you. Recommend The Baker's Arms to anyone within a 20 mile area .

By far the finest ploughman’s lunch I have ever experienced; my pate ploughmans came not only with a generous slab of wonderful terrine, but two cheeses, three salad selections, more bread ( delish in its own right) than any middle aged guy should ever contemplate, and a selection of chutneys including a rather delightful if unexpected Indian flavored offering - Ludlow’s pubs left us unimpressed but the Bakers was an absolute triumph.

We visited the bakers arms on Saturday night had table booked for 730 when the waitress took our order for two fillet steaks we asked if any chance we could have onion rings of which we were told no sorry so then we asked any chance of some fried onions ? No sorry ok then bit strange to me it took 1 hour for our food to arrive which was very slow service the steak was gorgeous but would of been so much nicer with some onion be it fried or ring neither is much effort such a shame

Nice shaded beer garden and plenty of parking. Local beer plus choice of several gins, and water for our friends dog. Had the sharing surf and turf kebabs, our friend had the fish pie. All great. The accompanying bread basket was exceptional. Very friendly and efficient staff.

We booked for dinner but chose to sit outside with the dog as it was really hot and the pub was quite full.. The owners really do need to get some better outside seating for summer. Rickety old wooden picnic type tables were very uncomfortable. The beer garden had a slight feeling of neglect. The food was passable but not great. The service however was excellent. It was a bit of a disappointment to be honest as we had read other reviews and thought it would be great. We were on holiday at the time. We also thought it was quite a limited menu.

My wife and I have been here twice in the last 10 days - firstly in the 'Snug' with our little dog, Alfie, and the second time just the two of us in the Restaurant. We had the fish pie on both occasions - it was excellent - and a bottle of an excellent Sauvignon Blanc each time. The atmosphere is great. A typical village pub with many locals (mostly, but not entirely, blokes!) drinking real ale and chatting at the Bar. I love real ale and will indulge next time for sure. There is a superb outdoor garden/patio area. The girls serving food were completely charming and the Bar Manager was very customer friendly. I highly recommend the place if you like good old fashioned style English pubs.

Having been here before and had superb food, my mum and I decided to come for tea we both had fillet steak, both asked for garlic potatoes instead of chips. One steak came with garlic potatoes the other came with chips. When we’ve eaten here before we’ve always had a side of coleslaw and salads, we saw that other tables had this but we didn’t. Not one waitress came to ask us if everything was ok with our meals. My mums steak had gristle all the way through, that’s not what we expect from a fillet cut costing £20.99!! It was only when we’d finished our meal that a waitress asked if everything was ok. We shared our concerns with her, quite frankly she didn’t know how to reply or what to do ans we didn’t see her again! No apology! We didn’t even get asked if we wanted to see the desert menu, we just got avoided, and left to sit there. We went to the till to pay our bill, when asked if everything was ok we said no and told her our concerns. To which we had a half hearted apology and asked if it had been dealt with, which it hadn’t! There was no offer of having our drinks knocked off the bill or even the un eaten steak. Such a shame as we’ve always had a good word to say about the bakers arms, and being my father in laws local pub im sure he’ll be deeply unimpressed with our bad experience.

Excellent food, a very good selection of quality ale, very friendly and helpful staff, excellent restaurant with outside seating available. What else can you ask for. Well worth a visit. Note Closed Mondays for food.

We went to the Bakers Arms because it had been recommended in the visitors book at the cottage we were staying in. My partner enjoyed his steak burger and said the beer was fine. I had a nut roast (which was not what I ordered). The staff and landlady were friendly and helpful, but the landlord was obnoxious.

Great beer & the food is pretty good too !

Looking on TripAdvisor for a place to have an evening meal enroute to home, I rang the pub about 45 minutes out and was treated with helpful courtesy. Our table was waiting for us on a busy Friday evening. Service was a bit slow, as there was a good crowd and the food is seemingly cooked to order. The menu is varied, if a bit old-fashioned; it's definitely not a gastropub, but an honest village pub emphasising local ingredients. We all enjoyed our meals and didn't have room to sample the puddings.

Good range of real ales, good food in a nice restaurant area, friendly staff, generally a very well run pub and restaurant.

Fantastic as usual a big thank you to all the staff once again for looking after us..Food spectacular service wonderful.

Delicious food, can't fault it. The sweets are to die for. You won't need anything else to eat for the rest of the day

A very welcoming pub, great staff service, food was very good. Can’t actually find any fault. Will definitely go back when around the area.

The menu was expensive for what was on offer. It was nicely presented but slow service. I was expecting more because others had said it was good but I will not be going back there.

Second visit this time for both food and drink. The beer was well looked after and fresh with plenty to choose from. The food is excellent with ample portions. Great friendly service all round.

A large group had a festive party lunch and it was a great success. The meal was delicious, the main dishes all received good reviews and the desserts were sweet and tasty; generous portions of food and of home cooked quality. The service was prompt, efficient and with a smile. The environment was cosy and warm and all in all the perfect choice.

Used to be a regular lunch stop of ours, until things started to slip repeatedly. Good choice of ales nevertheless and always fresh. Returned for a final visit in the hope lunch would be good, but it was frankly terrible for three reasons. The menu hasn't changed in years and that alone is a reason we've tired of the pub. On arrival the slightly frosty and matter-of-fact barmaid took the order for drinks then disappeared for a bit. Eventually ordered food. Waited 45 minutes for two sandwiches which were served by another waitress who clearly had never worked in a pub before - napkins around the cutlery were a mess. The salad had no dressing and couldn't have been less imaginative, with lots of chopped up peppers and iceberg lettuce. Sandwiches were ok on the whole, but the wait was just too long. We shall not return now, having had over 20 meals there.

I had a lovely Sunday Roast meal here last weekend with Herefordshire beef, huge Yorkshire puddings and homemade roast potatoes there was so much veg and all cooked to perfection. The staff were extremely polite and friendly especially the young girl who served us at the table she was fantastic. My husband had the fish pie and was very impressed with the quality and taste, looks like we will be revisiting next time we are near Ludlow.

Our routine visit to The Bakers Arms as visiting our horse again. Once again a massive thank you to Katie and her staff for a lovely welcome, fantastic service and an even bigger thank you to Annie her homemade veggie burger it was out of this world as was all the rest of our meals. Its another 10 out of 10 from Sarah, Gemma, Michael and not forgetting Issabel.
