The Codrington at Yate in South Gloucestershire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The Codrington Arms is indeed a Hidden gem for fabulous food and service. We called in on Sunday 1st Sept, the lunch was out of this world, everything cooked to perfection. Service was top class, and done so well by the young team, also noted how helpful and happy they all were. Please dont change anything, it is perfection, not matched very often elsewhere. Thank you Will & Wendy

Fantastic food and service this evening. Taco Tuesday was so good, hoping it's here to stay. We didn't turn up until 30 minutes before the kitchen closed but the staff were so friendly and helpful allowing us to sample all the taco fillings. Thank you so much, we will definitely be back

The Codrington Arms is a hidden gem! This pub has a genuine country feel, with great food that never disappoints. The beer garden is lovely, with plenty of seating—perfect for enjoying a meal or a few beers outdoors. It’s one of my favorite places to eat, always reasonably priced, and the service is consistently excellent. If you're looking for a cozy spot for a nice meal or a relaxed drink in the garden, definitely check this place out!

Sunday dinner was lovely friendly staff definitely be back

Taco Tuesday ! What a lovely meal . There were 5 of us two from Australia. We ordered 4 taco boards ( 1 of each flavour ) and two Nachos plus drinks . There was plenty of food . It was so tasty & worth the wait. We played games they had in the bar area and generally had a fun family evening. The young lad that served us was very polite with a huge smile even if our jokes weren’t the funniest. Recommend Taco Tuesday . Go check it out .

Went with girls from work, & had really lovely meals. Relaxing atmosphere, food delicious, & such attentive, lovely, smiley staff. Thank you, & will definitely return again soon. :)

Great food and service, nice atmosphere with plenty of parking and we'll kept garden

Food was great although service needs improvement, our food came out at different times and waitresses didn’t know what food was going to what table causing delay and my partner had finished his food by the time I received mine.

Kids eat for a pound on Thursday

I rarely write reviews but was compelled to after our visit last night. We had the best burgers we've ever had (Wednesday night 2 for £18 deal) and the pie was delicious. My friend had the ploughmans which was huge and my daughter had the child's burger. All homemade. She ate it all which is a review in itself as she is a picky eater!! The desserts were delicious and the staff were attentive and friendly. Will definitely return.

There were 11 of us and all had our food at the same time.good service, nice food, enjoyed the the visit.

Great atmosphere, amazing food, fantastic service. First-time visitors will definitely be returning.

We called in today Saturday 13 July for lunch . My daughter and I both thought the food was delicious very well presented. I would highly recommend this hidden gem.

Stopped here for a spot of lunch and wasn't disappointed. Had a Ploughmans board followed by homemade berrie pavlova, both equally delicious Amazing food and service!! Will definitely go again 😊

Pub lacks atmosphere, restaurant felt like a school hall, and very keen to clear pub early.

Excellent food, friendly and attentive staff. Will definitely go back.

What a lovely place to eat, food was excellent, very filling. Children had plenty of space to run around and lots of tables to accommodate large and small parties. Free parking right by pub. Menu was good and lots of choice, childrens menu was good also. Will definitely go again.

Was quiet when I went in, drinks weren't that expensive

Basic pub food, done well enough, polite service.

Fantastic breakfast here on Saturday with our family. Delicious food and the service was superb. We highly recommend this pub for food. The pub has parking and a big garden too.

Great value lovely staff lovely food what a great find and they do breakfasts Friday and Saturday big plus dog friendly

Sunday roast is absolutely top tier. Would 100% recommend it. Veg is tasty and absolutely on point, meat and potatoes cooked perfectly too. Decent veggie option for a roast aswell rather than the usual cauliflower cheese.

Banging pint of fosters and the wings were excellent. Food came out quickly, garden is spacious, staff were great and I'll be dreaming of those fluffy thick chips for a while.

First time here, definitely will go back. Food fab service great though a little slow but they were very busy, not sure about the big hall we were sat in felt a little like a school hall. But won't stop us going back.

Amazing country pub quiet with lots of space and lovely horses in field next door great for sunsets.

Had lunch with family. Very friendly staff. Fantastic food, good portions and freshly cooked. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

We visited The Codrington Arms yesterday with a table of 20 people for Sunday lunch (pre booked for a baby shower). I had to leave a review straight away as it was faultless from start to finish. The service was amazing. It all came out on time, together and was all correct. Paying was made very easy and the roast was delicious. We were all very impressed and I would definitely recommend.

Amazing location - parking/outside space for kids/spacious & comfortable restaurant. Prompt service and top rated food - options and quality. Hot plates and hot, freshly cooked, food. Couldn’t find anything wrong. There were 18 of us and we all had everything we wanted, at the same time, and all hot and tasty.

Came here on a Saturday night for a meal with a friend and would recommend a visit. We each had the three small plates for £14.95 and then a brownie to finish. The staff were very friendly and made our visit very enjoyable

Visited last night with a friend we both had the three small plates for £14.95. Such a reasonable price. The portion sizes are perfect had more than enough food. Had the triple chocolate brownie for desert which was amazing so nice and rich. Lovely staff. Will return and will recommend to others.

Really good value for money, as portions were large, quality of food excellent (meat was so tender) and meals served piping hot. Gravy was a bit bland which was a shame as Yorkshire puddings were lovely and would have been perfect with a flavoursome gravy. Service was a bit slow and glasses/cutlery could have been cleaner as water marks all over them but overall experience here was good.

Dreadful..... Food was really poor. Over priced.scampi and chips was a joke. 16 chips peas and 9 scampi for £15. Then having to listen to karaoke all the way through the meal. Won't return.

They accommodated us, a large party of 21, for lunch extremely well. The food was perfectly cooked, presented and good value too, with impeccable service. Thank you.

Proper pub with proper pug grub. Had the chicken for main, the wings to start, and an ice cream Sunday to see it off. Gorgeous. Very nice staff too.

Excellent Sunday roast! Without a doubt one of my favourites. They are the reason why I like Turkey, they cook it extremely well! The staff are brilliant. Highly recommended 👍

We came to the Codribgton jan 2024 for my mothers wake as fancied something classier than the local pubs , jenna the owner couldn’t of been more accommodating during our arrangements and the cakes and home made sausage rolls were divine we have eaten here many times and always thrilled I didn’t realise they catered for funeral wakes and we were really pleased they hosted it and my mum off in the style she deserved

Was passing through and decided to stop and try this pub, it was very welcoming and staff were great and polite, the food was perfect and couldn't fault it at all next time im passing ill definitely come in

Lovely food, friendly but not in your face service. A great January food offer. No complaints. My husband had his birthday and he had lovely steak too. Definitely 💯 be back. Just found out they had breakfast and afternoon tea. So much more to discover

Brilliant venue for....Stop offs when out for a cycle to sit in the big garden, for romantic evening meals for two, and this time for a lovely family afternoon tea for a birthday. Delicious food and so much of it. Thank you Codrington Arms.

We were over the moon with our Doggy Afternoon Tea experience! It was amazing 🤩 We were greeted by the friendly Codrington Arms staff and shown to our lovely table. There was a goody bag for the doggies to take away. We were brought fresh teas and coffees and then the doggy afternoon tea was served! So much for the dogs and such thought and care had gone into the preparation with sausages, a pup cake, doggy friendly sandwhiches, carrots and a pupchino! The human afternoon tea was also so delicious with loads of choice and very cute cakes and delicious scones! It was too much to eat and we were allowed our own doggy bags to take away 😍 There was also doggy agility set up in the garden for both doggies and humans to enjoy! Thank you so much for putting on such an amazing spread, being so thoughtful and an amazing experience ☺️ We have also visited for dinner and are always welcomed with a smile! The pies and homemade cheesecake/puddings are outstanding. We look forward to many more trips!

Some friends and myself ate Christmas lunch at the pub today the food was tasty hot and very good. I would highly recommend it

Highly recommend Sunday lunch. You'll not be disappointed. Excellent Guissness too. You have to book.

I booked an early Christmas meal for visiting family and pre ordered, however the two vegan festive roasts came out as butternut squash cassoulets which was not what had been pre ordered, when I queried we were told that was the only option available. I felt really let down and disappointed for my daughter and boyfriend. If there had been a change in the menu we should have been forewarned and asked if the change was acceptable. Our table was booked for 1:30pm and even though we pre ordered the meal did not come out until 2:15pm. There was not enough gravy on the plates and my bacon on my pigs in blankets was undercooked and inedible. The meal was not worth what we paid for it. We will not be returning.

Another excellent meal. This time the festive menu. The food and the service were excellent. The place does not disappoint. Thank you

Great food, lovely home cooked menu. We went on a Monday and it was quiet. People need to visit to keep good places like this open. I'm sure it's great when busy

I'm a regular diner at the Cod, but went for lunch with family today and service and food was excellent as always. High quality fresh cooked food, good beer, and nice and quiet! Highly recommend for a lunch.

A fabulous service, super friendly staff & let me have a starter & made it into a main dish for a very small extra price.

Fantastic family experience. Unbelievably the place was empty at 6pm on a Saturday evening!?!? Great pub menu, complimented with great service and top notch food. The front bar area had a lovely roaring fire and a really cosy ambience. 5*

First visit for a while,but this time an old friends wake.had drinks at a reasonable price,but the food supplied was Excellent with a good selection of food.Good also for the seating arrangements for a large group of people. Well Done to all the Management and Staff.

My daughter and I went there for lunch (dogs are allowed in the garden ) besides benches and parasols, there is also wooden cubicles ( ns ) for people who prefer the shade, we highly recommend, we had very enjoyable roast dinners.

First time here and heard the service was not great but how wrong they were. The service was great and pleasant and the Sunday roast was brilliant and so filling. Cooked to perfection and plentiful so no room for pudding. We will definitely come back much more in the future.

Just visited The Codrington Arms for Sunday Lunch. What a lovely experience. The food was amazing and our Waitress Katie was perfect. She was efficient, quick and when asked for something slightly difficult, dealt with our enquiry perfectly. If you haven’t tried it, please do.

Cannot recommend the Codrington Arms highly enough! We dropped in on a detour looking for lunch on our journey from Northampton to Cornwall and we’re so delighted we did! Lovely reception from the engaging staff. Absolutely fabulous food and drink. Our 3 year old’s lunch was was probably the best pasta bolognese I’ve tasted!

We went for lunch for my sons birthday weekend. Staff were very attentive and friendly and put a candle in his desert. Food was amazing, it was fresh and tasty. Well recommended.

Excellent Sunday roast, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend. Dog friendly too, might bring them next time!

First time visitor for a Sunday lunch. Wait time was about 45 minutes, staff were busy but very efficient. Pigs in blankets left a little to be desired as one was wrapped pretty much entirely in bacon fat. The remaining ones were of great quality and obviously decent produce. Beef was fantastic and all the veg was cooked well, roasters were 'just' cooked but nice. Very good size portion, was a lot more than it looked at first glance. Had a side of cauliflower cheese that was delicious. Only slight downside was it was very loud and was like dining in a village hall. Would return.

Family funeral.. clean tidy & friendly staff..

Atmosphere great, dogs welcome, staff excellent, friendly and welcoming. Will definately go again.

Just the nicest staff working on the day we were there. Excellent food and service. Just what two hungry people needed!

Food was delicious, garden was amazing, service was great! Great for kids and dogs! Thank you 😊

Cracking little pub, calm and friendly. Great food and good choice of drinks!

Was looking for somewhere for Sunday lunch , drove past liked the look of the establishment. Popped into ask if they could fit us in. All tables were booked , but the lovely staff made us up a table for 4 near the bar. Food smelt wonderful, menu had a good selection. We all had the Sunday roast. A mix of beef & turkey.didn’t have to wait too long for food to arrive. Food was plentiful , hot and all superbly cooked. Homemade pigs in blankets were amazing ! Staff very attentive and drinks were easy to reorder.would have loved a sticky toffee pudding , but everyone was full. Will definitely go back , little hidden gem. Also the beer garden was lovely. Well kept and tidy.

Great food, and lovely pub. Staff were really friendly, food was well presented and really delicious - we will definitely be back for more!

We'd driven past many times but stopped in for a meal with friends. The host couldn't be more accommodating. The food was incredible and the garden was safe and enclosed for my Autistic son to play in without concern.

Im not one to leave reviews but... I have just eaten the best salad ever!!! it was gorgeous! Called the Summer salad at the cod Yate would definitely recommend p.s staff are so lovely too

Great food, great service, the whole place shouted good service. with a passion for good food!! Excellent!!

Awesome home cooked food, great menu to choose from (I struggled to make a decision!) and fantastic, efficient service from Tracy. Will definitely be returning 👌🏻

very friendly, family run "local " good food, great outdoor areas play and sitting, Lovely food very friendly service and very reasonably priced

Service was good, food was ok, if there's a noisy or rowdy group in there the sound carries making a family meal quite difficult. All in all quite good though

A good menu to choose from. We choose from the specials Chicken Goujons, sweet potato fries tasty salad ,corn on the cob. So tasty! And so well presented.

Came here for some food for the first time last week and was greeted by friendly staff. It was rather quiet for a Saturday evening which concerned us. When it came to ordering our food most of what we wanted wasn’t available which was frustrating... The food was nice but was over priced for what it was. The staff were lovely, the building itself was spacious/ clean and they have a big car park.

Came after a 10km walk with my wife. They managed to accommodate us as they were mostly booked up. Food and drinks came out fast with very friendly customer service. Food was totally spot on. I would totally recommend and we are very lucky it...

Booked a table in restaurant/room off bar. Freezing cold. Table unstable and rocking. Rear and side windows filthy. 2of the starters we wanted they didn’t have. Also only one burger left! 2 went without starters😞 £5.95 for 6 very small mozzarella sticks?🤔 Mains were 2...

Lovely roast. Good selection of beers. Well kept garden and plenty to keep the kids occupied 😄

I went on a rainy Tuesday evening after a walk with my dog. Staff were really welcoming to two damp and bedraggled strangers. They immediately provided a water bowl for the dog, and took my order at the table to make it easier. Food arrived...

Great Sunday roast, excellent portion size, my only criticism on the food is totally down to personal preference but I like yorkies stodgy and this one is quite crispy which for some is likely a good thing! The reason for 4 stars on atmosphere is because we booked a table for two but it was in the restaurant area. Ordinarily this would be fine but as I neglected to state on the booking that we have a dog, we were not allowed to stay in the restaurant area and had to move to either the bar or outside which is fine but this pub states that they are doggy friendly which is true if you aren't in the restaurant area which takes up most of the pub. The staff are lovely and the food is delicious though but just be aware your seating options are limited with a pooch ☺️ Dog bowls for water and treats are available at the bar as well.

Good choice of food, friendly atmosphere. Plenty of parking.

Bar was a bit noisy for a meal but good food, reasonable price and good service. Especially the youngster on a trial shift

Fantastic place for the family to go to, great services, very friendly!, the garden us massive new play area coming soon for the children, my kids loved running round the garden and my little one defo loved the food 🥰 thank you so much! All...

From the beginning the staff at the Codrington Arms were helpful and accommodating. We booked our table very last minute for Father’s Day, and we were not disappointed. The food and service was exceptional. You could sense the staff had, had a very busy/challenging day...

Place average, food average, had hair in food, only one till to pay so waited for half an hour to pay, wouldn't come back.

Went for a treat family lunch , the staff were absolutely lovely, unfortunately the food was not, the beef was fatty, the vegetables we’re not cooked properly and could not cut the Yorkshire pudding with the cutlery provided, will not be returning

For a busy Fathers Day, service and food was excellent. Very friendly service from Katie & Niamh. Nothing was too much trouble.

Great pub great food lovely staff.

Absolutely love the Codrington Arms , it’s are go to pub as a family , we love the choice of home cooked meals to choose from , ( changing the menu through the seasons) & always lots of lovely specials . friendly welcoming staff who...

Very pleasant staff and enjoyable outdoor area to relax with friends. Delicious, honest, uncomplicated food. Dogs welcome.

Great food,good service,smashing garden and play area.

STAFF FRIENDLY, SERVICE GOOD, FOOD VERY GOOD, LOADS OF IT 👍👍

Service was bad we waited half an hour and no one even came to take our order. This is only the second time I've ever walked out of a restaurant without ordering. Staff stood behind the counter chatting and didn't seem busy at all and...

My mum and I had lunch here. Was honestly one of the best ceasar salads she ever had 👌 lovely beer garden and staff are really lovely too!

Received a warm welcome. Nothing too much trouble. Went with my daughter on a visit to see her in Yate. We sat outside in the lovely garden. Had Fish board and Caesar Salad which was the best I've ever had. Will visit again when back...

Had the roast turkey meal. It was delicious. The turkey was tender and full of flavour and the Yorkshire pudding was amazing. The sticky toffee pudding was one of the best I have ever had. Really friendly, prompt service.

A group of 13 of us visited for lunch. The food was extremely nice and good value, the environment very pleasant, and the staff helpful and pleasant.

Had lasagne from the specials. Was a very small portion with a few salad leaves and couple of slices of garlic bread £14.95. Extremely over priced. Complained to be told that’s how it is. How rude. Don’t waste your money here. Friday night at 7...

Bring back the old management Meal was a disgrace Rump steak medium rare was cruised Meal was cold Pepper sauce well!! No more to say Only positive was the lovely girl who had to bring meal out🫤

Great food and a lovely pub. Within walking distance of the Town centre. Would recommend booking even just after opening it was very busy. All the staff were very accommodating. Would visit again.

Great Sunday Lunch, good service.

Visited again after many years. Cosy happy pub. Dog friendly too.

Booked a table for my wife's birthday, turned up and found it locked up! Then had to find another place to have lunch. Not happy! Infact a disappointing day.
