Stepping into The Calleva Arms is like finding an oasis in the desert of the ordinary. The pints are poured with such precision, it's as if they're crafted by the steady hands of a watchmaker. The atmosphere buzzes with a warmth that could thaw a snowman's heart, and the locals are so friendly, you'll feel like you've been part of the furniture for years. It's the kind of place where the beer tastes like a golden sunset and the memories linger like the froth on your upper lip. A true five-star experience!

One table too many in the restaurant area, could do with some new cutlery, but otherwise lovely food, good service and clean pub.

Really disappointed with our meal yesterday. The menu was limited for a vegetarian, so I went for the Bean burger - it was not home made - likely previously frozen and shop bought - a very thin dry thing. The bun was also dry. Advertised as coming with hummus in the burger but the smallest amount given. Partner’s beef burger was also dry and disappointing. Starter Camembert was good and chips done well so a surprise for both mains to be so poor. Meant we didn’t dare try the dessert offering. Very frustrating to have spent around £70 overall on 2 drinks, 1 starter and 2 disappointing mains. Won’t be returning. Shame as we tried this to branch out from our regular local spots! Atmosphere and service fine however.

The Sunday roast was excellent. The vegetables were al dente with fantastic flavour and the meat was cooked perfectly. Whilst the service staff were friendly and helpful, they were a little disorganised and it wasn't busy due to eating early afternoon. Our main meals were delivered but we had to wait for the vegetables to be delivered and we had to ask again for the desert menus. It certainly didn't ruin the meal, but the efficiency and organisation could be improved.

Ordered a sandwich for a quick lunch snack, unfortunately the bread was a little stale. 3 star as it was editable but maybe next time it will be better. Update on my review, gave them the benefit of the doubt. Absolutely atrocious service and food. We order a little after opening time and they were taking orders, over an hour wait and people coming in well after starting getting their food. Questioned this and they didn’t even start cooking because they forgot !? Never again. If you read this I beg of you to avoid and go down to the rowbarge by the canal.

Had a nice evening here with the family. Nice traditional country pub with nice seating area for meals. The food was nice and a good size portion. Menu had enough on there to choose from. Main meal was priced slightly more than other equivalent pubs. Only downside was the pudding prices, I found them to be over priced for the size of the portions and other pubs and restaurants. Still tasted nice. Would go back but maybe skip the pudding.

Food good, surroundings good, staff friendly. My only complaint is that they did not have Coke, only Pepsi, and since the sugar tax Pepsi is part sugar, part sweetener and I hate sweetener, so I wish they had other options. But overall very good.

Really nice pub situated on a village green. There was a really good selection of beers available alongside other drinks. The food selection was really good too with very large portions on the mains and some lighter bites. There is also a range of lighter options. Service was friendly and the food arrived quickly. We ate in the restaurant area and there were also lots of people in the bar area eating ans drinking on a Saturday lunchtime - nice to see a pub busy. There are tables out the front facing onto the green and also a large garden at the rear. There is a large car park at the rear and parking on the street outside.

Having recently moved to the area, discovering the Calleva has been an absolute pleasure to find, and has become my new local. Ashlie and her team are an absolute pleasure. I cannot fault the food especially the stunning moules mariene I had last night. Peter really knows how to run a great cellar, to date I've never had a bad pint, it's always served at the perfect temperature but also with a lovely welcoming smile from the bar staff. With COVID and recent times, it's so sad to see so many pubs closing, and it's wonderful to see the Calleva thriving. I do hope many others come and enjoy a wonderful experience.

Having had a lovely dog walk locally decided to pop into the pub as we’ve eaten in Fullers pubs before, to grab a drink and some lunch. Great pub and good location but the service, I’m afraid, is seriously lacking. Got a drink straight away from the bar, wanted to order a sandwich each but were told we couldn’t order yet, name taken and put on a list, which we would then be notified when we could. The front tables were empty at this point, the rear beer garden had two occupied and the pub itself was about half full. We sat outside and waited, decided to go in and ask after 25 minutes. Told we would have to wait another 15-20 mins probably till we could order. At this point we decided to leave as we had to get home before it was likely the food would arrive. So we would have had to wait 45 mins till we ordered and then waited for the food to arrive. Likely over an hour to get a sandwich is poor and not acceptable. We weren’t offered another drink to apologise for the delay either, which would have been reasonable customer service. The staff were polite and apologetic but it’s simply not good enough and we weren’t given a reason either. Shame as we’ve had excellent meals elsewhere. Sorry but won’t be back.

Not sure what's happening at the Calleva, but noticeable on my last two weekend visits that it is a lot quieter than it used to be. My own experience on my last two visits has been average food (Sunday Roast, beef was a bit gristly, though portion size was good, must have noticed when they cut it) and poor service. I may have been unlucky, but on both occasions I thought the HSB wasn't up to previous standards, though not off so I didn't take it back. I had the pleasure of a really good pint elsewhere in between the two visits so it was noticeable. What makes me give such a low score on service was not being offered drinks at the time of being shown to our table (ignored for 5 minutes), followed by an experience when waiting at the bar where I was ignored in favour of a known regular who had literally walked in and was greeted with being asked what he was having. If that is how they treat waiting customers, unsurprising that they are less busy these days.

This was a great pub for many years but it's now looking shabby and is understaffed and, when I visited on 29th May, pretty empty. With a packet of crisps at £1.70 I can see why. If you do drink here it might be an idea to order two rounds at a time so that you get them before closing time.

Very busy at the bar, it was a bank holiday Monday. The kitchens closed about 3.30pm and we probably had the last reservation of the day. The staff were doing their best to cope. They do use a frier for gluten free only, which is very postive.

Unbelievably despicable behaviour. My niece had a birthday celebration booked for 10+ people for Tuesday 9 May. Calleva called today 8 May to cancel her booking saying they are closing Tuesday instead of (the bank holiday) Monday. They must have known this well in advance. Too late to get in anywhere else. Very arrogant to treat customers in this way. I've been a frequent visitor, with friends, to this lovely pub for the last 10+ years and am so angered that I shall never darken their doorstep again.

Village pub with a cosy atmosphere, decent food and a respectable selection of ales, ciders and liquors. I particularly enjoy this pub after taking a walk around the old Roman town of Caleva, which can be started from the vicinity of the pub. This is also one of the few places in the area where I have been able to find HSB which is a fond favourite ale of mine.

Came for dinner for 2, food was average the nachos were ok, out of a packet not home made which is not what I expect for a £9 starter (or almost double for a main). The chicken burgers were deep fried to death, which removed any of their southern flavouring and made them very dry. Have been previously and it was excellent, maybe there has been a staff change but it’s no longer worth the premium prices they are charging.

A cold Thursday lunch time. Pretty quiet. Well kept beer. Waited a long time for food - because, we were told, others had priority. When the food came it was very good - the mushroom risotto got rave reviews from a semi-committed vegetarian. On the basis of beer and food, this should get five stars. BUT the windows were being actively painted inside and the smell of paint was everywhere - is that OK under health and safety rules ? The grumpy bar staff did not improve the feeling of being unwelcome. Ah well. We had a great exploration of the surrounding area - the medieval fish ponds and Elizabethan Manor are even more interesting than Calleva Atrebatum !

Visited one lunchtime while in the area with a friend, nice pub, had the vegetarian burger which was lovely, well presented and tasted amazing, the chips were well cooked although a couple of them were cold, maybe they had already been cooked and we're not thrown back in the fryer. Apart from that it was lovely, if I went back I would sit closer to the open fire as on a cold day it is chilly.

If you are a contractor working for this company be carefull. When they need the service they will give confirmation that they will pay. Unfortunately they do not pay.

Visited today for lunch and probably wouldn't rush back although I'm aware there's recently been a change in management so maybe a few teething troubles. Messaged via their Facebook page to book a table, no response. Never was a problem in the past. The pub was very cold with no heating at all so we had to keep our coats on. Several tables near us commented the same and all sat with coats on. The coffee machine was out of order so only instant available, which wasn't pleasant. We waited a long time for someone to come and take our food order, in the end I went and found someone. Two of us wanted the steak & ale pie. Only then were we told it wasn't available. The chap said we should've been told when we were given the menus, well it was him that gave them to us! With that he said he'd give us a few minutes to choose something else and walked away. He didn't come back so I had to go and ask to place our order again. At no point did anyone ask if we had any food allergies, which I thought was a requirement these days? The food was really good, credit to the chef; it was well cooked, well presented, large portions and very tasty. We did notice that two other tables waited a very long time for their food and had to chase it up, so glad we ordered when we did. We would have stayed longer and had a dessert but it was so cold we couldn't relax and enjoy it. We were next to radiator and we did ask one of the waiters if it was possible to turn it on and he said he'd see what he could do, which was nothing as it remained stone cold! When our plates were taken we asked for the bill, but it didn't arrive. Eventually a young lady arrived with the card machine and asked us to pay, which we said we'd be delighted to do once we received our bill! When we left we walked past 3 different members of staff, all of whom had waited on our table at some point during our visit. Not one of them made an effort to say thank you or goodbye. There was no warm ambiance or friendly feeling in the pub, it felt cold (literally) and unwelcoming. I also felt that a couple of members of staff waiting on tables looked rather scruffy, none of them wore a logo'd t-shirt which I feel the staff should do as they're representing the pub or brewery. It was difficult to distinguish the staff from the customers!

The foods are not fresh at all, can taste they’re all frozen especially the beef, the Korean food is not Korean at all unless they think Korean food should be burnt the night before then heated up in a microwave, the chips are the same quality you get from Sainsbury’s basic. They also use the wrong type of rice for East Asian food as well and massive over use of coriander. The only thing they have going for them is that they sell expensive beer!

Really nice pub. However, the dreadful "music" that is constantly playing in the bar is a real turn off. It seems like some radio station with awful music and endless commercials. Why why why? This banal nonsense is spoiling an otherwise lovely pub. Staff are always lovely. Update on 01.10.24. Internet says you are open..you are not open.. Heard you are closed Monday and Tuesday? So bad. If you don't want to run a pub, then do something else. You deserve to fail for treating customers this way.

Nice pub with separate cosy looking bar and restaurant areas. Food was very good, clearly not 'ping' food and reasonably priced (for these days...) eg haddock fishcake £13.95, Sausage and Mash £12.50, Steak and Ale Pie £14.50. Desserts around £6.75 with mini dessert (small but ample) and hot drink only £5.50. Drink prices very reasonable as well Merlot 250ml £6.95, Doombar £4.70. Close to Bombay Sapphire Distillery so good place to stop for a meal after visiting.
