The Lancaster Arms in Hinckley and Bosworth

Loved this pub it has a real cosy welcoming ambience and a great mix of tradition with the nod to king richard (artwork is fab) and modern layout. Loved the gin terrace and choice of gins. Hubby loved the choice of ales. Yummy vegetarian green veg risotto that packed a punch of flavours. Plus a tasty creamy berry pannacotta. Great atmosphere welcoming staff. Plus tikki pods outside next time might need one of them! X

1st visit to this lovely pub. Roast dinner looked amazing. Everything was very tasty. However it was all only luke warm. Which was disappointing.

Amazing food! Amazing service (karen was lovely and made the experience great) such a homely, welcoming pub - cannot fault the food at all. 10/10 for the chefs and waiters !

Nope. Having a laugh. Staff friendly. Great with allergies. But the prices...just simply ridiculous. I get things have gone up. I understand that. But for a roast it's £23.95 for 2 thin slices of meat, 1 yorkshire, unlimited (reheated) roasties, unlimited cabbage & peas plus gravy. And then if you wanted 2 cauliflower cheese florets it was £5, 2 stuffing balls was £5 and an extra yorkshire for £2.95. Goodness me. No. Only because we were with friends did we stay. Head to Gelsmoor at Griffydam for £16.95 you get it all on your plate and it tastes phenomenal.

A huge Thank You to The Lancaster Arms!! Your private room is beautiful and perfect for celebrations. We all had a lovely time celebrating a baby shower and the food & service was amazing!! Thank you so much.

My husband and I went to The Lancaster Arms for a Sunday lunch. We both ordered the turkey. It came on a Sharing board with green veg, Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes and gravy. We also ordered some sides, red Leicester mash, honey roast carrots and cauliflower cheese, Everything was cooked beautifully and was so tasty, the roast potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy inside and tasted so good we finished them quickly and were bought another portion included in the price! I would definitely recommend the red Leicester mash as an extra. The staff were fab too, we were served by Millie who was lovely and looked after us well. The pub had a lovely atmosphere and a great red wine selection. We will definitely be back!

Lovely Sunday roast today . Lamb & beef. Lovely pub, lovely food and great service. Will be going back there for sure! Outside area was lovely, shame didn't have good weather so we could have sat outside. Next time maybe!

Sharing platter was excellent. The beef was cooked to perfection, light and fluffy yorkshire pudding. Potatoes crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. All veg beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Beautiful meal. Excellent service.

Sunday roast served as a sharing board. Neat gimmick, food was nice although stingy on the roast meat. Did what it said on a very overpriced tin. Doubtful we will return unfortunately.

I really enjoyed my meal at the Lancaster Arms. It was around 3.30 on a Wednesday afternoon so it was quiet. Super food and the waiter was friendly and efficient. Thanks to all at The Lancaster Arms

This has to be one of the best Sunday roasts in Leicestershire! The service is fantastic and very attentive from all the staff and focused on giving the best service and experience possible. The food was amazing, nothing we could fault, the sharing board worked well with a couple of additional sides, but personal preference, the sharing board is more than enough. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere and the patio area is great for a drink after dinner. This was our first time visiting for a number of years but we'll definitely be returning with friends and family.

Came here for a wedding reception (August 2024) and it was amazing. Lovely location, very friendly and helpful staff and food to die for 🤤 100% recommend for others to come here.

First visit to the Lancaster . nice place and surroundings . we ordered a sharing platter with beef and lamb, food came very quick which isn’t a good sign but nicely presented and looked great, we soon realised some of the items were more fresh than others. the beef was awful (a cheap cut) and certainly not sirloin as advertised on menu, blood rare but really tough and we couldn’t cut it, the lamb was a bit better but very tough also . roast potatoes were solid and possibly could’ve been a couple of days old .yorkshire puddings were not fresh, the carrots were nice though! and Staff were pleasant. I’m not sure if we were unlucky but it felt like we were served leftovers. very disappointing for the price.

Just came out of hospital treatment..called in on the of chance about 2pm for my wife and myself for Sunday lunch outside space very nice..the food a different matter the meat you couldn't cut it impossible to eat it it was that tough,, roast potatoes must have been under a heat lamp for a long time as they were hard also inedible... complained they took the price of the meat of the bill unfortunately i am not well enough to argue .neadless.. to say disappointed is not a strong enough word BAZ

WE had an amazing Sunday Sharing meal here last Sunday for my daughters 30th Birthday. We reserved the private dining area so that the little ones could run around safely and without bothering everyone else. It was a boiling day but the room was soooo cool inside. We are able to get there earlier to decorate and had plenty of space and tables for the cake and decorations. Karen was our server and made sure we understood how it all worked and answered any questions we had. She was in and out during the whole meal to make sure we had everything we needed. The bar was just outside the room so really easy to get to and purchase our drinks individually which helped with the bill at the end. The way they do their sharing menu meant that there was plenty of food to be had for everyone and was quite refreshing to be able to choose what and how much you wanted without making additional orders/charges. The food itself was delicious and everyone really enjoyed it. It felt like a massive feast. We asked if we could bring our own cake as it had be specially made and they were absolutely fine with it as we also bought our own knife and napkins for it. Karen even put a lighter in the room so we could use it for the candles. I would definitely return for a normal meal here as the gardens were so inviting. We are also booking for our next special birthday celebration as we were so impressed . So a big Thankyou to all the staff at the Lancaster Arms

We've been to the Lancaster several times and have wonderful food and service every time. I'd be surprised to find better food anywhere in the county. Great surroundings both inside and out and the service is excellent.

We booked a Tiki Hut for my mums 80th Birthday as a family treat. We had been looking to visit here for sometime and we were not disappointed . The hut was lovely and spacious with side curtains and also a heater which was super cosy. Food was absolutely delicious we had the full shebang with starters, main etc and drinks. Mum absolutely loved it. Staff we attentive and friendly. We travelled especially to try it and will definitely go back again! We look forward to it.

So very sorry but after eating brunch with friends 20/7/24 our grilled breakfast was very disappointing compared to our other visits. Our bacon was hit/ miss whereas crispy then undercooked which wasn't nice. Previously we have had 2 x bubble/ squeak delicious squares, we received a tiny one hidden away and all was overwhelmed by a large pot of beans. My husband agreed that our mushroom tasted ' odd' .I asked for a medium egg as opposed to 'sunny side up' and had to return but still not medium when refreshed. Tomatoes/ bread good, sausages were acceptable but didn't appear to be as good a quality as previously visited, feedback would be good as it could just be my taste buds... Chelsea was so lovely and friendly, Ian and Anya surpass themselves with providing top quality ingredients and food usually,and they are wonderful people who work so very hard to give the best service possible! A wedding was booked for 1pm in the gazebo area and we vacated to the lovely garden area at 12.45 , I would like to think Chef was under pressure due to this, even so, not our problem and didn't really enjoy our brunch, average and not WOW! Which we expect from the Lancaster given we spent over 100.00 for brunch, we expect more...so sorry Guys 😘😘😘

Another lovely Sunday dinner to celebrate a birthday. Love the sharing board. Thank you to Ellie for brilliant service.

Don’t let the 4 star food put you off I only put that cause a I only got chips and cheese so can’t really give 5 stars until trying a main, saying that the chips were bang on and the beer garden so nice and the way they switch it around from summer to winter is one of kind, really worth going

My husband and I had our wedding reception here yesterday. To say it went beautifully is an understatement. My husband and I didn’t have to worry about anything and we all had compliments on the food being served. There was something for everyone! And kid friendly! Thank you to you and your staff! It’s was an amazing day! ❤️

Me and my 4 other friends came here for Saturday lunch and it was amazing. The quick service and food was spectacular, i couldn’t recommend this place more! We ended up finishing our lunch and had wine out on the beautiful gin terrace to finish off our afternoon. Will definitely be returning!

We went on our friends' recommendation. We were shown to a table in a corner so dark (it was still light outside) that I had to use my phone light to even read the menu. Service was swift and three of us ordered starters. As there was only one set of cutlery per person, the server returned to the table, threw three extra lots of cutlery onto the middle of the table with "Help yourself". Our starters, we all had the prawn cocktail, was different and very good. My wife and I chose the beef strogonoff advertised as strips of fillet steak with mashed potato and asparagus. I asked if I could have rice, as is normal wit this dish, to be informed "we don't do rice", The food duly arrived and I was somewhat surprised at the small portions. The steak was tough and some of it inedible although we did manage to chomp our way through most of it. I have eaten this dish, and cooked it myself many times, and this was definitely not fillet steak. The accompanying asparagus consisted of one stalk cut in half! At £20 each, a real rip off. Having commented on the quality of the steak, we were offered one free sweet although two of us had suffered. By this stage, our friends were hugely embarrassed at our treatment and it was they who complained. The sweets were also accompanied by the throwing of the dessert spoons onto the middle of the table with thee usual "help yourself"

Wow! First time visit for our family for a late lunch. Everyone was so happy with their food - really tasty and good sized portions. The attention from the team running The Lancaster was second to none. Can’t wait to go again. Update. We came back for Sunday lunch. One word. Superb. Really friendly staff who went out of their way to accommodate us - I’m very tall and I was struggling to fit my legs under a table with a ‘lip’. No problem - found us another table. The food was excellent and the best Sunday lunch we’ve had in years. Afterwards we had some drinks in the garden which is lovely. Cannot wait to go back again!

Had my baby shower here out on the gin terrace, and it didn't disappoint! Highly recommend and Sharon and team were so helpful thank you x

Ok nothing special and really expensive

My wife and I went to the Lancaster Arms the 26th of April at six o'clock the menu that she gave us is nothing like what we're seeing on the internet so our choose steak pie and chips it wasn't too bad it wasn't enjoyable eating in a bowl then my wife had beef stroganoff it came out and we couldn't believe it four bits of beef potato and sauce absolutely disgusted my wife meal on its own with £20 I wish we're going to the fish and chip shop now instead it will cold inside there no eating on atmosphere a bit rubbish actually I'm not going again my sister tells me it's better on a Sunday that won't be happening I asked for zero Guinness it turned out to be and not a full point but still charged me four pound something for that our disgusting all the places you get a full point

We went for Sunday lunch today, and got the sirloin, and the turkey they were running off menu! We also added the Red Leicester mash, stuffing and cauliflower cheese, and all the food was phenomenal! The sharing board could have easily satisfied 4, but the 2 of us managed to push through it, much to me jeans protests, we even got offered top ups on the gravy, veg and gorgeous roasties! I highly recommend booking this! For the sharing platter, 3 x sides, 2 beers, Pepsi, and 2 x chefs cheesecakes (which we took home) it was just under £80!!!! Bargain!!! Karen who served us was a dream and very attentive, as well as all the other wait staff. We will be back!!!

We went the lancaster for a light lunch, but the food was so lovely we eneded up having a 3 course meal instead. The chef's special cheesecake was just fantastic 😋 The place has a great atmosphere and the staff are so friendly and asertive. We will be going back soon very soon 😍

Incredible food here! Table of 4 people, we all had very different dishes and all had high praises afterwards too. I’d love to come back again one day and try the steak. I tried a bit of steak and it was very good. As far as beef burgers go this was one of the best I’ve had. Staff were super friendly and helped us out alot too. Can’t recommend enough. 10/-0

We had our wedding meal and evening drinks at the Lancaster Arms in February 2024. From the first communication with Ian and Sharon, they were both extremely helpful and accomodating of our requests. We all felt very welcome and relaxed in the private dining room during the day and they were kind enough to reserve some tables in the bar for the evening. The food was delicious and all of our guests commented on the high quality of food and presentation, served by very attentive staff. We would highly recommend the Lancaster Arms for any occasion, especially the private dining room as having our own space was ideal for our wedding day. Thank you to all of the staff that made our day special, we are looking forward to using the lovely garden in the summer too!

Great food. We always come here for their sharing roast dinners which are such a treat and very generous servings!

Very well recommended. We came here for Easter Sunday dinner with the family (yesterday) and had a great service from start to finish! Food was fantastic and the portions were huge! Great staff, atmosphere and food. Can’t wait to come again! Thank you!

Always new where the Lancaster arms was but never visited. Popped in this evening on the off chance and so impressed great pub amazing gardens and the food was top class. Service was also excellent 👌 will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend a visit.

We came as had heard good things about the food, it was super quiet in there so we got a table fast but the service and wait for the food was a long time. We both ordered burgers, and would say they where basic especially the beef burger, it was that big it was hard to eat making the meat pretty dry and for the price we left unimpressed. The service was sub par but the waitress still mentioned the option to tip but didn't even ask how the meal was. I would say it was overall lacking and the price was too much for what we where served

Unfortunately this didn't live up to expectations had prawn linguine which was very bland no taste, my partner had the pie and was dry, was disappointed as heard good things about this place, wouldn’t return waste of money! Did tell waitress that food weren’t great but she didn’t seem bothered 🤷🏻‍♀️

We really enjoyed our Sunday lunch at the Lancaster Arms. Matched with excellent service

im going to be honest here and just say it as it is, this is the most expensive carvery ever, they put a twist on it with table service but its still a carvery, and there is nothing wrong with that but for the price £22 for a sirloin, you get one piece, not a steak, more a thick bacon rasher slither, £16 for basically one pork chop, for these prices when you leave you should have a good feeling for what you just ate, but its a carvery, unless you are from mars its impossible to do a bad carvery, and the lancaster arms does a decent carvery but the prices are crazy for the meat, i go to a local award winning butcher and i get 4 sirloin steaks for what i paid for a 2mm thick slice, so will i go back, sadly no because the £9 local all you can eat carvery is exactly the same and i dont need a loan to pay for it. also dont forget either that the only unlimited is the veg and roasties, mash and all other sides are £4.50 each and you dont get much for that

Wow from service to food amazing, faultless, would absolutely recommend and 100% will be returning!

My Husband and I went for Sunday roast in the evening. We found it a wonderful experience. The food was served very quickly on hot plates and the platter of roasted meats (beef, turkey and pork) and a selection of vegetables were amazing, hot and succulent. We shared a pudding tiramisu which was delicious. We will be back. Thank you

We went to The Lancaster Arms on Saturday 24th February for the first time and we had such a wonderful time. The staff were amazing and food was delicious. We can’t wait to return and couldn’t recommend this place enough :)

Great food , great staff . Well priced . What more can I say ? Thoroughly enjoyed eating here .

Food was cold all aspects of it meat pots and veg. It was served on a cold board potatoes where dry and hard, vegetables where un glazed and gravy tasted like a powdered bisto i ordered a side of cauliflower cheese thinking it would be nice and hot but it was the same cold as the potatoes, we asked a waitress to exchange the roast potatoes for new hot ones which she did willingly and she informed us that they are stored under hot lamps in service so the longer they sit the colder and harder they become. It wouldn't take much for this to be a fantastic roast I would love to see it get better and go again bit as it stands I will be looking for another venue for our Sunday roast sorry..... all the waiting staff where amazing and super helpfull and welcoming couldn't ask for better service, they also apologised many times regarding the cold.food and even offered us a concession, we declined this and still left a tip i Hope the review helps sorry its not more stars 🤷‍♂️

Excellent evening all round, warm welcome with gorgeous interior. 3 courses & drinks for under £80 fkr two people. Staff attentive and punctual, superb food and an excellent looking outdoor area for summer months

We had the gammon and the Mac and cheese for mains, and for dessert we had sticky toffee pudding and the brownie all was great. Service was great from both waitresses! Food was absolutely delicious, both the main and the dessert. Would definitely recommend!

I would not recommend the Sunday board. The potatoes were hard, dry. Possibly through being left in the warmer. The sirloin is basically one thin slice of beef 3mm thick max. The veg was OK. Gravy is tasty but thin. The only thing I genuinely thought was outstanding was the Yorkshire pudding. The crumble was very poor .. it was more like saw dust. Staff were very welcoming, but sadly, I wouldn't recommend this place for food. It's a shame because it is a lovely spot

Disappointed is not the word, took my family here for the first time today for my wife’s birthday, we had the mixed red meat sharing board at 22£ per person. 1 slice of beef each and 2 small pieces of lamb, both were very dry, mixed medley of greens which were ok ish, the roast potatoes were very over done to the point where they were hard to cut, everything was cold including the watery gravy. Ordered a side of cauliflower cheese and again was cold and hard to cut so we left it. We left very dissatisfied and unfortunately will not be returning. A shame really because it was recommended.

Ben's Kitchen provided the food on Tuesday evening. The tapas provided was out of this world - delicious!

Lovely Sunday lunch. Cauliflower cheese needs a tastier cheese for the sauce though 🙂

We sat in one of the bubbles outside & it was nice & warm. The food wasn't great as I wanted a small potion of food!

Tried here for a Sunday lunch today and what a disappointment it was. I honestly wish we had stayed at home and saved our money as this must be one of the worst Sunday dinners we’ve had. Presentation wise it looked lovely but unfortunately the food itself was very poor. For the price you are paying you expect a good standard but this just wasn’t met. Me and my partner had the lamb/pork option - for £21 each we got 1 slice of lamb, 1 slice of pork, an over cooked cold Yorkshire, a mixed veg melody which was mainly cabbage with a couple of carrots (seemed like something from the freezer) and roast potatoes. If you’re thinking of ordering a side of cauliflower cheese for £4.50 - don’t bother - we couldn’t believe how small the portion was and taste wise it was very underwhelming too. My partner took advantage of the unlimited roasties as he was still hungry and must admit the second lot were much hotter and fresher - probably the best part of the meal. But overall it was a very poor meal out - would not recommended or return.

Lovely Sunday lunch with excellent service. A great way to see out 2023. A Happy New Year to all at the Lancaster Arms.

Nicely set out, table service only, I thought it was quite expensive. Not very busy at all

Such a lovely meal for mums birthday. The steaks were fantastic, and the Stilton mash was wonderful too. Thanks for such a lovely time!

Fab food, fab service only downside was there was a group that was rather loud which filled the room so couldn’t hear our conversation. Food, drinks and service were impeccable absolutely love this place would recommend to anyone. The lovely waitress Selena even sang happy birthday to me in a very quiet moment after the loud group vacated and despite embarrassment kept singing. Thank you for a lovely evening 😊

Amazing meal as usual. Can’t complain. Ellie very pleasant. Thank you.

Such lovely food (the fillet steak in particular - the knife just fell through!), served with a smile and a really nice cosy atmosphere inside. Looking forward to my next visit very soon. (Sirloin steak pictured)

Great service and friendly staff we went here for our family Xmas meal and it was a nice cosy environment drinks were on point and food was really nice a proper English Xmas meal ! Also the beer garden is super I will defo visit during summer time .

I had a meat pie with veg and mash which I enjoyed. The other 3 had chicken and chips, they ate it all but agreed they would choose something different next time. There will be a next time.

Another great Sunday Sharing Platter, with a free veg refill, and enormous Yorkshire puddings. Lovely Apple Crumble to follow

Best Sunday lunch we have had in a very long time. Lovely pub. Gravey was the best. Will definitely be returning soon. Thank you to the attentive & friendly staff

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning.

Visited for Sunday lunch, lovely cosy pub with a good atmosphere but the food really lets this place down. We ordered the sunday roast which comes out on a sharing platter type thing. Between 4 of us, we received a small portion of meat each, a small bowl of veg and roasts barely enough to feed 2 children. Although it states on the menu that these are “unlimited”, when we asked for more, we waited over half an hour and never actually received these even after asking a member of staff to chase it up. The young lady we asked in fact laughed and told us the kitchen were slow. For £23 pp, you receive a basic sunday lunch and have to pay £4.50 extra if you want any additional sides which are also a tiny portion. The food actually tasted delicious so it’s a shame that the service and portion size let it down. For over £100 for 4 of us, we definitely will not be returning, you leave with an empty stomach and an empty wallet. Really really disappointing and not worth the extortionate pricing.

The prices are extortionate and the food is not edible, absolutely shocking! The chicken in the chicken arrabbiata was the consistency of mush and the pie was full of salt and one piece of meat. The pub was empty and to be honest I can see why. I would not return if the food and drink were free all night

Visited on November 12th for an impromptu birthday roast, hadn’t booked so we were glad to get a table at 5.30pm. Things seemed to be going ok, restaurant wasn’t too busy so we could hear ourselves speak, but there was a strange atmosphere/vibe, the staff weren’t relaxed and seemed really on edge. Throughout the visit, we were served by four different members of the team, one being ok, one completely indifferent and two that didn’t seem to know who, or where, they were. The food itself was bang average, not awful, but nothing at all special. The desserts were definitely the high point, but with a very low benchmark to compare against. If you happened to get hit in the head by a gluten free yorkie for some reason, you wouldn’t be getting up for an eight count, granite hard. The low point though was the conflict between two members of staff that started in the bar area and ended up in the kitchen, via the restaurant. Proper Fawlty Towers style, shouting, swearing and other staff awkwardly loitering to catch it all. I don’t want that when I’m in a restaurant trying to relax and celebrate a birthday, it made for a really tense environment. Two drinks and a poor roast came in at around £33, overpriced and underwhelming, with the potential for a toe-to-toe thrown into the mix! Avoid is my advice, unless you like that kind of thing.

It’s been a long time since we have visited the Lancaster Arms, still the same great menu and lovely setting with a raging log fire that welcomed us. Bar has a great range of beers and the usual drinks, the Gin menu is pretty impressive and will struggle to find the range anywhere else. We enjoyed a good meal, service was a little slow and this is the only reason for us to score a 4 star vs a five, some other minor challenges that could have been overcome but the challenges in the restaurant and food industry at the moment need everyone to understand that challenges do arise. If your in the area give them a visit, food is tasty and generous portions, My favourite is the Smocked Salmon and Prawn starter, whilst the serving has changed its still a tasty dish.

Totally disappointed. Dropped in as passing for a lunchtime drink and felt in the way as not actually booked in for Sunday lunch. No atmosphere, little hospitality and requested to move once sat with a drink as table needed for someone wishing to eat (no reserved notice on table) Used to be such a lovely village pub but won't be returning

Amazing roast dinners with a shared platter format and unlimited veg and roasties. Incredible. Highly recommend.

A warning for families with young children - Best avoided Extraordinary prices for basic Sunday dinner After checking out reviews booked our first time for Sunday lunch with family and whilst food and ambiance were nice the prices were extortionate. The Sunday platter for 5 was served with little more than the same platter for 2 beside us ( just a couple more slices of meat but at over £100) served on extra small children's plates was way overpriced - effectively only 2 small pieces of meat each 8.50 for kids chicken nuggets 2.00 for small glass of blackcurrant squash and 6.00 for a child's ice cream cone We really felt like we had been robbed and definitely won't be back as service was very slow and way overpriced for a basic Sunday lunch £200 with no starters or desserts !!! The adjoining table complained as well -enough said

Fantastic pub/restaurant popped in for dinner on a rainy October evening. The pub itself has a lovely atmosphere and is very inviting. Food was absolutely delicious and fresh. Special shout out to our Server Karen who was excellent! So kind and friendly. Highly recommend

Visited yesterday. Very disappointed. When we went to the bar to order and was told burgers not available. 6pm? Ordered pie. Pastry was burnt and dry. Vegetables soft and tasteless. Never again. Such a shame as the bar and decor was beautiful.

Came here for sunday dinner, it was lovely the platter they bring out was nice. Food tasted amazing and cooked well. You can have free refil of the veg too!

we went last night and the food was not to a good standard the only thing to be cooked right was the steak soup was that thick could stand a spoon in it sweet chili prawns were just small prawns thrown in chili sauce and chucked on lettuce for the price was expecting king prawns chips were not chips they were wedges and they had been overcooked like bullets pies dry in side no gravy ask for gravy and were given some form of think-looking syrup that tasted vile said it was the chef's special gravy stroganoff served with mash ( strange ) mash was lumpy service could not fault the waitress was so apologetic and tried to sort for us but it was too late we had started eating as this was my mother-in-law's 80th, it was a bit of a let down will not be returning they did take the pies off bill personally needed to sort the chef out would not have even sent that food out myself and as I am a qualified chef myself was disappointed with the food Food: 1/5 | Service: 4/5 | Atmosphere: 3/5

Excellent food, the steak was especially good and cooked exactly how I like it!

Visited The Lancaster Arms on a Friday late afternoon and had a wonderful experience. The staff and hosts were super friendly and attentive. Loved the interior decor with its references to Richard III. The risotto was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented with an aged parmesan crisp which was to die for. Repaired after the meal to the gorgeous gin terrace outside with drinks to chill in the twilight. Definitely planning a return visit to luxuriate under the stars in one of the domes with a few friends and something sparkly. Highly recommend!!!

We booked in at 5.30PM so it was not very busy with only one other couple eating and two guys drinking outside. The waitress Karen was friendly, efficient and helpful. I had looked at the menu on line which seemed "OK" so was pleased with the large number of specials to chose from when I arrived. the food was excellent as was the beer choice and quality. Prices where acceptable if a bit higher than average but it is a lovely venue not a pub chain. I plan on going to try the Sunday dinner next month. That should be praise enough.

Held a birthday gathering here and Sharon, the chefs and waiters/waitresses made our evening so enjoyable. The food was delicious and I think the pies are up there as some of the best if not the best pies we have had. The clean plates spoke for themselves and I swear my brother-in-law would have licked the plate if he could have got away with it. He had the Chilli. Lovely surroundings. Highly recommended.

One of the best roast dinners I have had in a long time. The platers worked really well, loads of food! Great service and value for money. Highly recommend.

Extremely poor experience that was very unprofessionally handled by the team at the Lancaster arm. Would not recommend. After paying a deposit for 10 people to hire out the private cabinet room being moved out of a private hire room to a main table in the restaurant due to a family bereavement & illness. This was questioned as the booking was for a private room, deposit held by the Lancaster arms although they did not provide the room which the deposit was booked for. Will be taking further. When calling to discuss we were hung up on.

Massively over priced for a family of 4 and thats with desserts taken off as an apology for terrible service. Waited 40 minutes for 1st drinks, an hour and a half for mains. Steak was overcooked when asked for rare, dessert was stone cold when advertised as hot..... Very disappointed. Not particularly helpful or friendly staff. Beautiful setting but wont be going back

Amazing atmosphere, service and quality of food. Amazed at what we got for our money. Will definitely go again. A must to visit. Lovely outdoor pod to sit in, plenty of staff. Great portion size.

Great Atmosphere and awesome Garden. Service and food excellent with a great choice of drinks. Will be returning for the après experience in the dome for sure!

A really nice pub. Great tasty food. Came here last weekend for a meal out and would definitely come back again.

We hired out the Gin Terrace at the Lancaster Arms for a baby shower and had an amazing day here. Sharon and the team were helpful and accommodating in the run up to the event and everything ran really smoothly. The food was the highlight of the day, we had a hot buffet and everyone commented on how tasty it was! Would highly recommend!

Excellent all round . Very friendly staff and attentive. It was pie night so good value for money. Lovely steak & ale pie best we have had in ages . Look forward to visiting again soon

Local resident and often come here. Menu is diverse and food is always fresh and well prepared. Nice ambience and great floor manager and waiting staff, always a nice experience.good value too

Dreadful, meal booked for 7pm, mid-week, hardly anyone in the pub or restaurant area eating, and our mediocre meals for our party of 8 finally arrived at 8.40pm……waiting one hour and forty minutes for one course only. Terrible service, drinks were slow in coming, we asked for mayonnaise and were brought tartare sauce. Absolutely awful, will definitely NOT be going again.

First visit .lovely welcome very friendly staff . Excellent food . It was pie night £16 including pint great value . Will definitely be visiting again

There was room for a walk in on a Friday evening, very friendly staff and the food was outstanding with very generous portions. We'll 100% be back again.

This is honestly the best pie we’ve had in a really long time and the service was amazing. Everyone should go to pie night here!

I visited with friends in quite a large group, service was non existent, every time we wanted a drink we had to go in from our seating outside and into the bar, meals were bought out staggered despite ordering together, sauces for meals offered before food arrived, food and drinks overpriced and staff don’t care. Messaged to complain and ignored, my advice would be to go somewhere else. Gone downhill lately, used to be lovely a couple of years ago. AVOID!

We booked the venue for our engagement party and we’re totally thrilled with our experience. The terrace is beautiful. Everyone was so impressed with the food, atmosphere and service. They were so helpful throughout, constantly in communication and made it so easy. We would definitely recommend for your events.

Absolutely beautiful Sunday lunch. Superb presentation and great attentive service. Definitely return many times.

I had beef stroganoff which was lovely, the steak was not seasoned at all and what they call a “single” in an alcoholic drink is laughable also PLEASE if you’re in a rush don’t go here we book a table at 7pm and arrived early we’ve only just left now at 10pm the service is that ridiculously slow, infact I could go as far to say it’s the slowest service I’ve had. Unfortunately the nice beef stroganoff wouldn’t be enough for me to go back as the cons outweigh the pros.

Amazing food and staff Great place for dinner !

Not the cheapest but the steak is one of the best I have had. Really good meat, well cooked.

We attended last night for a birthday meal as a party of 13 and sat in the outside terrace area. There was no table service so we had to go to the bar individually every time we wanted a drink. When we wanted to pay for our meal we were told she would bring the card machine out so we could pay individually but she then changed her mind and we all had to go in to the pub to pay at the bar again. So we wasted a lot of time at the bar instead of enjoying our time outside. I ordered pasta and it was very average and quite dry. Supposed to have been linguine but came as tagliatelle. Was definitely not worth the £17 that I paid for it. We didn’t order desserts as they were very overpriced £8 for a fruit salad! We would have ordered coffees but at this point we’re fed up of going to the bar. We complained to the ‘manager’ about the lack of service and that no one checked if our food was ok and she was very rude and didn’t apologise, even after one of our meals had to be sent back because it was so bad. We will not be returning!

Absolutely beautiful setting Food was amazing, the flavours were incredible! Will definitely be returning ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We visited today for the first time. 4 adults and 2 children. Service was quite slow and we had to call someone over to take our drink order. The waitress explained how the Sunday dinner worked which seemed quite straight forward. We ordered 3 sharing...
