Top notch carvery. All fresh veg cooked to perfection. A generous cut off meat, and well kept ale.

Had been a fair few years since I’d been here. Now a carvery type place but not like the average carvery, food was always fresh and you get a slot to go up so aren’t shoulder to shoulder. Food was still just as good though!

Moho Stop over. No hesitation in going back for overnight. Looking forward to friendly professional Staff and yummy Food worth the wait. beer not the best would have liked a bottle as turnover seamed a bit slow, beer in pipes to long served warm, staff did try hard to serve a decent pint pored some off, just be carefully what you order or pick a busy time, not put off thou.

We were told that we hadn’t been called to get our carvery when we went to get our food having not been before and no one told us this was embarrassing! While there was a good choice of vegetables they were not very warm! Yorkshire pudding was cold! Carrots cold! Roast potatoes dry! As for pudding sticky toffee pudding was also served cold?? Staff not very attentive as understaffed for the amount of customers! Overall very disappointed!

Booked for Friday 19 April as we wanted to sample the cod & chips which was on offer @ £20 for 2. My wife who is from Yorkshire where the locals are proud of there f&c thought that the Defford meal was probably better. Great praise Indeed. We will be back for sure.

Popped in on the off-chance we could get late Sunday lunch. Staff helpful carvery good value excellent choice of vegetables, all tasted really good. Some clientele did not know how to talk with each other without whole pub hearing, but you can getbthst anywhere. Well worth a visit.

Food was great and there was a good choice of vegetables. I wasn’t impressed with the decor or the furnishings. Our table was wobbly and had a beer mat stuffed under one of the legs, the chairs were ripped and peeling and highly uncomfortable. I understand that it’s a busy place, but when you’re a party of four, cramped in the corner opposite a party of about 12, it feels really claustrophobic.

Overall we really enjoyed our Sunday dinner at the Defford Arms. I had prebooked us a table so we could secure a table - only to be found we were put in a fairly cramped corner by the door with really uncomfortable seats which didn’t make the meal the most pleasing experience. The food was great for the price and really tasty. Overall I would recommend going for their food but hopefully next time we are offered a more pleasant place to sit to enjoy our food as no one enjoys being too cramped up whilst eating. I would have given the 4th star if the seating situation was better.

Was driving through and needed a pit stop and Sunday carvery and Google maps brought up the Defford Arms. Carvery stops at 6pm on Sunday like most places around here by the looks of it. Cosy pub, friendly and the carvery meat and veg selection was superb. Da iawn.

We turned up late afternoon on Sunday, having not booked, they squeezed us in when they were clearly very busy. The food was great, huge selection of veg for the carvery. Puddings of cheesecake and brownies, were also lovely! We will definitely be back!"

We had our first Sunday carvery yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. Choice of 4 meats which were moist and tasty and such a huge choice of veg. All piping hot and delicious! I would say it's the best carvery I've had in a very long time. Deserts were also great as was the service! Will definitely be back for both the carvery again and to try the main menu! Recommended!

Not sure why this place has so many good reviews!! We weren’t too impressed with the place! Went as part of a group of 15 for a family meal to celebrate my sister in-laws wedding. Carvery was tasty but the actual experience was chaotic and it cramped inside. Chairs have had their day, one of our party found a broken one with wobbly legs. Other chairs were stained and ripped. Decor and furniture need updating! When we arrived there were still people on our table- they obviously just turn around customers as quickly as possible! The table was so cramped- we were constantly pulling ourselves in to let others past which spoilt the enjoyment of a nice relaxing meal. There was barely any room for our pushchair, luckily we managed to cram it in behind the table. We were rushed off the table too. The food was good but that was it… we won’t be going back!

Very cramped space, staff too busy to care to care and full of attitude. Only one staff member stood out as polite. Not disability friendly. Food pretty average. Only one entrance in use as other exits blocked by tables which is surely a fire hazard.

We turned up mid lunch service with 2 hungry children and a dog. The car park was packed yet we still decided to give it a go and try our luck. When I walked in it was packed and I spoke to an incredibly polite young lady at the door who stopped what she was doing to greet me and happily said we could have a table in the garden which was perfect for us with the dog. Came in to get some drinks and order our food and again despite them all being busy and rushed off their feet the service was friendly and polite. The lady serving us advised about the wait of about half an hour food, so I paid and took our seats in the garden. I was slightly worried about the 30 minute wait as I had two hungry children yet after only about 15/20 mins we were told we could get our food. Well what can I say about the food…..I would have waited an hour for it. A beautiful piece of beef, more vegetables than you could ask for and gravy. This was just what was needed after a morning of walking in the Gloucestershire countryside. Great service and great food and a very reasonable price as well. Can’t wait to go back.

Amazing to be able to have a vegan option at a carvery! Lovely staff and service, not much of a pub atmosphere though. Main was a lentil Wellington in filo pastry, which had a bit of curry flavour but was mainly a bit wet and insipid. Good roast potatoes and parsnips and whole onions, watery gravy though. Good, rich vegan chocolate torte with slightly grainy coconut sorbet (or maybe it was ice cream) Guinness so-so

Once again the Sunday carvery is well provided and catered for with a choice of 4 meats and their continuous flow of freshly prepared vegetables, no time for them wilting being kept warm. Book ahead if you want table inside but garden is not a problem. Close to Defford airfield if your flying in for the day...15min walk
