The Legh Arms in West Lancashire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Just Excellent, truly Excellent. Food was amazing, the value was excellent, the atmosphere brilliant. I love this place. Our first visit and I hope to be back when in the area again.

We ate here last summer (2023) and had the most wonderful Lamb Kleftiko ever. I've tried to reproduce it at home with limited success, so, I emailed the Legh Arms to check if it was back on the 'specials' menu. Milly kindly informed me it was and I made the booking with Grace for last Thursday. Spectacular does not do this dish justice. I commented as such and Jack, the head chef (and owner I think) came out to discuss how I might get close to his perfection (little hope). The fact Jack was willing to be so helpful is a powerful reminder of the good stuff in life. My wife had the small belly pork bites as a main rather than a starter as she eats far less than me. She and I thought they were incredible as well. Great selection of wines, my Malbec was very good, my wife's Pinot Grigio blush equally so. Guiness Zero to start and a J2O made for a meal well worth the 28 mile journey each way. This restaurant knows how to provide great food at very good prices and in a quiet, relaxing atmosphere with friendly and efficient staff. All boxes ticked. We shall be back again without question. Thank you all.

Where to start with this place… From the moment you walk in, the staff were so welcoming and friendly! The food was absolutely amazing! The service was out of this world! Not one fault could be said about this place, it really is phenomenal! Would recommend anyone to go here! Easily the best service and food we have had! And the drinks were so perfect, pints were refreshing and crisp! The gin and mixer, made perfectly! We honestly can’t thank this place and staff enough, you’ve made our weekend away just that little bit more perfect! So a massive thank you to you all! 11/10 5/5 star reviews! Absolutely perfect place! Thank you, Connor and Kerry

We arrived at 11.30 to an open door ,lights on, but a chair in the doorway blocking it. We asked if we could come in for lunch, we were politely told that they were not open yet. So we left and had lunch somewhere else.It would I think have been nicer if we had been asked in and to have a drink until they were ready to serve. Poor customer service . We have eaten here and it is very good , but If you don't look after your clients, someone else will.

The best meal I've had in a while. Even after travelling for 3 weeks through France. We'll done to the chef's, your sea bass meal was first class.

We've dined at The Legh Arms many times before BUT last night was the icing on the [birthday] cake. It was my other halves 60th, a surprise party with 17 guests and all the potential associated problems. From my first contact to book, through follow-up contact regarding menu choices, to seating on the night everything was arranged without fuss or concern. What can I say about the food?! everyone, without exception, was overwhelmed with the quality....presentation, flavours and portions. EVERY member of staff both front of house and behind the bar, were immense.....friendly, attentive and although under pressure, full of humour and personality. Thank you again to The Legh Arms for making a special night, extremely special! All the best......see you again soon, Rob and Lynda

Great country pub, attentive staff, lovely atmosphere and good food and drink at a fair price . I recognised the lady owner from sister pub the Hop Vine (an all time favourite of ours).She was always on it making sure everyone was looked after and works hard pushing her team. We will see you all again soon 👍

Tuesday evening birthday meal, 6 diners. Main course good, service prompt. Unfortunately desert of sticky toffee pudding hard to get spoon through. Gave up Trying to eat pud half way through by 3 of guests who had ordered this. ? Over microwaved. Informed waitress reason for not finishing sweet, apologies given. A goodwill gesture of maybe Coffees or one sweet knocked off bill would have been appreciated. Disappointed

Used to go all the time before Christmas and came back today and wasn’t impressed, waitress were lovley and helpful but the chef was not good. Definitely won’t be going there again for food because wasn’t the nicest

We visited over the Bank Holiday weekend. We'd already walked out of one place due to poor service whilst visiting Southport so were hungry and a bit narky but that changed when we came to The Legh Arms. The moment we walked in, we were welcomed by the wonderful staff who were attentive and friendly throughout our visit. The food was amazing; arrived quickly and was piping hot. Traditional English food which was well cooked. And the best sticky toffee pudding I have ever had.

Great food, huge portion which was great value for money. I had the steak and ale pie, fantastic home made comfort food👍🏻

Sadly this pub advertisers itself as dog friendly so you think your dog is allowed in the restaurant, they aren't !! When I phoned to check they apologised and said they'd get their website changed. May be allowed in the bar area but no guarantee of being able to order food :-(

Not very expensive, good value for money. Will be back again. Everyone enjoyed themselves. One improvement would be faster service. But overall good.

I know these are peoples jobs ,, so i will not go into a lengthy review.. Just to say never ever again.....

We went to the Legh Arms for a meal. The food was really good and the service was great. The staff are very friendly and very efficient. The atmosphere is lovely and relaxing. Just what we needed. Try the beer from their brewery.

Family celebration. Been meaning to try this place for ages as heard great things about it. It didnt disappoint. Great ambiance in cosy setting. Lovely to sit next to open fire. Service was brilliant despite all Covid restrictions. We all enjoyed our food. Didn' feel rushed. Would definitely recommend.

Great fish and chips... Good price and excellent quality of food. Lucky enough to get a walk in place. Will book next time.

Having used the government website to find places near by signed up to this offer, we have made good use of the scheme this past month and all the estatlishments we have eaten at have discounted 50% from the bill or upto £10pp off. How disappointing to have less than £5 reduced from a bill of over £30, I wonder how many others have been mislead into thinking they would be paying much less.

Fantastic staff, lovely food and a nice environment. We have been many times before and will be back many times more! Lovely place.

Went last night for the first time, taking advantage of the Government eat out scheme. Arrived to a very busy pub, shown to our table. Decor is really cute, old world character and great atmosphere. Food ..Totally amazing. Had starter, main meal and pudding each plate cleared! You can tell it is home made. Definitely going again

Slow service in terms of food. We have a toddler and booked at 12:30 so we wouldn’t be backed up behind lots of orders. We only ordered mains and asked for his as soon as it was ready. The food arrived at 1:20. It was lovely but not worth keeping a hangry toddler entertained for an hour.

Went for lunch. Great selection on the menu. Food was amazing - hot, good size portions and presentation Service was top class efficient and friendly. Would definitely recommend a visit and I will definitely return. Make sure to reserve a table as it is very busy

We called in to have an early dinner at around 4:30 thought it looked a bit quiet and found out why when we went in .. they don’t serve food between certain times and on this occasion weren’t doing so until 5:30, we weren’t in a rush so thought we’d wait. They told us the restaurant was going to be extremely busy so sat us on a small table near the bar . To be fair when we actually ate the food was fantastic and well worth the price. Only gave it 3 stars because when we left around 8.30 the restaurant was very quiet and could have comfortably accommodated us at a more suitable table .. will definitely visit again but will check the serving times first

Visited Tuesday lunchtime with a friend, we had booked but there was no need as it was not that busy and there were tables free. They did have some specials on, I opted for the fish and chips, the fish was like a whale, absolutely huge, my friend had the fish pie which she enjoyed very much, we got a side of bread-and-butter which was hand cut rather than white sliced cheap stuff. Too full for pudding.

Had a beautiful early evening meal, we are staying for the weekend 5mins away from The Legh Arms, food excellent, couldn’t eat all of it unfortunately, service excellent also, staff so friendly, when in the area again will definitely have another meal there

We decided to go back to the Legh Arms for a treat prior to some of our group going back to work. We thoroughly enjoyed it again. The food was excellent and the staff were all very professional and friendly. We would highly recommend for a lunch time treat or a special evening out. We will be back again soon.

Never ever been here before but oh boy will I be back. It was a Tuesday lunchtime and we didn’t book but it was busy so maybe a reservation is needed. Great menu described really well and at the right price. We had a ploughman’s and a Caesar salad. They were so delicious with plenty of cheese and home made pate and the Caesar salad had lovely crispy bacon as well as chicken topped with some toasted bread. We really had intended to be good but after such amazing mains we then had desserts. These were not your average desserts but beautifully described and impeccably served. We had sticky toffee sundae with proper whipped cream and good quality ice cream. I really cannot recommend this place enough. I consider myself really picky but this place was superb. Staff courteous and attentive without fussing.

I have been here several times and tasted different dishes. Always delicious and beautifully served. Very friendly staff.

Having a T-Bone steak on the menu took me back years.@ less than £20 it was great value for money and cooked to perfection medium-rare.Staff very friendly and with their own micro brewery the place is heaven.Recent improvements to the car parking has made it a lot better.Highly recommended for just a pint or a great meal with plenty of choice.

Sat in the conservatory very warm in there, nice long table to accommodate all of us, meals were presented well and service was very good, they were very busy. All the food was of good quality and hot.

I visited on Easter Saturday with 25 other family and friends. We had pre ordered our starters and main course. Once service started it was well organised. The portions we large and nicely presented. The staff were very helpful and no request was any trouble. I have visited before but never in the conservatory which has a nice atmosphere. I would recommend The Legh Arms for the quality of the food and the service provided by the friendly efficient staff. Everyone enjoyed their evening which was to celebrate a birthday.

First Visit here with Daughter and Grandaughter, another Grandaughter with Her Partner and His 2 Children. Staff were very Friendly and Helpful.

We eat here often. Great for couples but also for larger family groups as well. Both the regular menu and the specials always deliver a delicious meal with a good range of food styles . Staff are friendly and helpful, if you have any preferences or allergies they are happy to answer questions and accommodate your wishes.

Really nice staff who provided quick and efficient service. I had cauliflower soup followed by the fish bake - both were delicious. My husband enjoyed bread and oils, a tasty burger and an enormous cheeseboard. There was a good ambience and we will certainly return next time we are in this area.

We went to this local restaurant on Saturday (16th March) evening to celebrate an upcoming birthday. What a fantastic experience it was. Great food, great beer and fantastic staff. The whole evening was enjoyed by us all and we would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

The service the food the drinks all excellent could not ask for more would always go back and we have been to a lot of local eateries.

Went for family meal on Saturday as always lovely food is excellent staff serving very welcoming always love going back can't wait for next vist

We had an amazing Sunday roast ( pork) yesterday, the best I've had in a long time, even requesting more gravy ( even though there was ample on my plate) was no trouble from the lovely friendly staff who couldn't be more obliging

Went for tea tonight had a lovely meal again try the ribs to start with amazing staff are friendly and nothing is to much to ask always love going here lovely little place to go

Booked on Saturday for a late Sunday lunch to celebrate our granddaughter’s exam successfully. Greeted warmly with appropriate seats for waiting provided for two of our group who have mobility problems. Drinks provided promptly. Varied menu with attractive specials. Good servings of all the dishes chosen, and all professed satisfaction. Desserts were all very good, and the overall experience was great. Compliments to the chefs and staff for providing a very pleasant lunch, with a more than satisfactory bill at the end of it.

Lovely meal with family on a Sunday evening. You need to book as really busy but service was very good and timely. All meals were enjoyed. Especially like the children’s meal, for an extra £1 they could have a pudding which were generous portions for little ones. Drinks reasonable and food priced competitively for the area. The only thing that slightly spoiled our experience was some very loud gentlemen at the bar area behind us, I think from a previous group party.

Had a lovely lunch at the Legh Arms. Had difficulty choosing as there were so many appetizing dishes on the menu. The meal was delicious and staff were friendly and efficient. This was my first visit and it won't be my last.

Parents live not far from here always also treat us to a meal.here nothing changes food excellent service excellent prices are very good. I had the fish bake a wonderful dish wife had sticky chicken she said it was delicious parents had ploughmans equally tasteful and no complaints at all will I go back always keep it up its nice to see a place to eat has it so right.

I was pleasantly surprised - much improved since I last visited, waitress was more than helpful and all 3 different meals were delicious. The conservatory extension is a real improvement - very airy and no noise or cooking smells from the kitchen. Will return.

Had my first visit to The Legh Arms Restaurant in Mere Brow and was very impressed. From the moment we walked in and asked for a table we were looked after very well by friendly and efficient staff. We sat in the conservatory and it was a beautiful day and with the doors open you had a nice breeze. The menu is great and they also offer specials. Service is very good and the food was great. We finished off with a drink outside in the beer garden. looking forward to my next visit!

Rather disappointing had a stir fry salad plenty of meat but served cold. My partner had gammon steak ok but not exceptional don't think I will bother again .

Looked at the menu and was instantly drawn to the 'Baked Camembert to Share

Went for tea the other night food excellent as always staff so friendly nothing is to much to ask if you go have the ribs to start with they are a must can't wait to go back

A great pub restaurant, I shouldn't tell everyone about it, should keep it too myself. Quality food and service real ale beers too. Onion rings to die for

Not a great menu. Fries served with scampi not chip. It would be nice to have the choice of fries or chunky chips. Steak and ale pie overcooked and dry. Beefburger also overcooked and dry. Disappointed in food and price of it. Staff pleasant and helpful.

I ate hear for lunch and the small FISH & CHIPS was fairly large. The service was average and the pub is quite relaxed and comfortable. My second visit (not local) and quite satisfied.

This is one of the most welcoming homely Pub Resteraunts you could eat and drink in.Lovely varied menu which all seemed to be freshly prepared (unlike some chains ). What a great range of local beers they have as well. The service was excellent and the prices were reasonable. The staff were courteous and smartly dressed and the premises were clean. Great country pub atmosphere .The new extension is nicely furnished and has improved the experience tremendously. I suspect some negative comments have been made because there was a period of adjustment when the extension was opened and i dont think even the management anticipated how immediateley successful it turned out to be. All four of us had different meals and they arrived at the same time.Call in for a pint of local beer and browse the menu by the open fire. We have dined here a few times and have never been dissapointed .The prawn cocktails are huge and i cant resist the Beer Battered fish which melts in your mouth although the steaks are great as well. Not my local but its worth the ride out.

Tonight 30 of us attended the Legh Arms. We had been asked to pre ordered to enable the kitchen to be prepared. Our table was reserved for 7pm.

First of all it puts you off your meal when you've not even ordered to watch a waitress with her skirt up her backside white literally just covering her behind. Far to short.

We visited for Friday lunch had the steak sandwich and fish and chips, best we’ve had in a long time. Would recommend and will be visiting again.

Popped into the legs arms for a quick tea. The new conservatory is beautiful to sit in and eat. Very...

Visited last Sunday Evening 6 of us. First time since the new conservatory opened, lovely atmosphere, everyone enjoyed their food....

Running late, couldnt decide what to cook, so didnt, called booked for 2, friendly welcome, as usual, brilliant meal sermed...

Our first but not the last. visited with friends, all of our meals were very good, had tried to visit before but usually busy and need to book in advance. would have preferred pate with toast rather than brioche bun but other than that all good. Staff friendly and prices ok.

Called on the off chance on a Wednesday afternoon. Very helpful and pleasant staff showed us to our table. Service was quick and efficient, lovely pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord's cask ale from the selection available and a very pleasant and comfortable atmosphere. The Steak and ale Pie was very nice with a shortbread base and puff pastry top, crammed full of chunks of lean beef. This was served with hand cut chips and mushy peas.The good lady had a veggie burger which even I liked the taste of!We followed all of this with the cheeseboard, This was enormous with a fantastic variety of quality cheeses and crackers and has to be the most enjoyable one I have ever had.All in all a very good experience.

Stopped here on the off chance, only to find excellent food at a really good price.Catered for our large group, including children and everyone was served together. From outside it is really unassuming, but the food is well worth stopping for

Called in as we were passing by and had never visited before. Beautiful food, lovely place and brilliant staff. Couldn't fault it we will be back.

Sometimes it's really nice just to visit a local pub and have great service and great food and the Leigh Arms definitely didn't disappoint.The staff were really on the ball and service was friendly and top notch and the food was excellent with one of the best steak and ale pies I've had. Great to see the place expanding as we've tried a few times to get in and struggled which with the new extension should be eased.

Stopped by this week for lunch which proved most satisfactory. Service was excellent and food provided with attention to detail. Prawn cocktail was substantial enough for a main course nevertheless a starter but couldn't resist the lamb so had both.

Came once before and was good! We came with our dogs last time and was told to sit in the tap room with dogs which was perfectly okay! So we've returned again and they have a new manager! The service and manner behind her is disgusting!! We were only allowed to have the bar menu this time and made to feel very unwelcome,as we asked for the dinner menu in the bar area. The manager must have a serious chip on her shoulder, a common problem when you promote someone at a young age into an important job role! Power doesn't work well with her! Very rude! We will definitely not be returning! However the guy behind the bar did seem to want to be accommodating, and thankfully because of him, we did receive the whole menu. However the manageress made it seem like a massive favour!

Went with another couple for evening meal. Thought menu would have been better. Main courses - EVERYTHING WITH CHIPS. It would have been nice to have had potatoes, after all "new potatoes" are in abundance this time of year. Having said that, everything we ordered was well presented and of good quality.

Love coming here food always consistent and brilliant choice of drinks also. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area

It's sad! This pub is in redevelopment. I visited at lunchtime I was asked if I'd booked a table. It's a pub it's lunchtime! No. So I never got my table. There was not even the courtesy of "If you take a seat ". Customer relations zero!!!Well your staff member pretentious attitude means you've lost my custom.Serves me right for not booking....

The Preston area has a distinct lack of decent restaurants & hardly any worthy of a visit in the "City" Centre (that's if your brave enough to venture into the dump of an evening) so this is a welcome improvement to the surrounding area. Pate starter was excellent as was the other halfs Sirloin & the Chips were home made & very crispy. My Roast Beef was more than adequate, however, it wasn't your typical cut of the more traditional type, more a lump of shin (cheaper cut) & should have been advertised as such but all in all a decent nosebag. 2 glasses of wine, a coffee, shared starter & 2 mains £42.50. Pics uploaded for your perusal.

Have been to legh arms 3 times and although the meals were tasty, we have both ended up with raging indigestion, not usual at all, meals very heavy and greasy

Six visits in four months,none of which disappointed.good food served piping hot in a friendly manner.Not expensive,good value for money.Log fires enhance the experience.Premise being extended which attests to it's popularity.

The food at the Legh Arms is beautiful, from plain meals like gammon and steak pie to the more adventurous specials , the food Is delicious . Presented with care, cooked to order and served courteously the fare is well worth traveling for. The Legh is undergoing an extension, I would guess it will be ready in the spring, I just hope that helps us get a table ! Please book as the Legh is very popular . It has a lot in common with its sister establishment the Hop Vine but has a more intimate atmosphere and is a lot quieter.

Welcoming excellent and bar service prompt.4 hand pump beers and a fair range of food at a good price. Wide range of ages

Nice pub, nice beer and nice food... always candlelit...Real shame because the owners work really hard in their pub The Hop-vine, where everything is fantastic!The staff in The Leigh Arms, let themselves, the customers and the owners down big time! Grumpy faces, uninterested and a bar man talking to his mates and texting on his phone with his back to the customers!We will go back because the owners are brilliant and it's convenient ... the staff need a good talking to!!! And that's being polite!

We had a lovely time here with some friends visiting from Spain. Nice food, roaring fire and friendly staff!

Second time here and food was amazing and really good value for money x we were sat by open fire. Staff really friendly and polite x definitely going back again x

I have just had the pleasure of having Sunday lunch at the Legh Arms and I have to say that it was outstanding. We had not booked but we were fortunate enough to be accommodated despite the restaurant being quite busy. As a vegetarian, I asked for everything on the Sunday roast apart from the meat. I was rewarded with an extra Yorkshire pudding and a very generous helping of fresh, beautifully cooked and presented winter vegetables. For dessert I simply had to try their warm fudge brownie and custard. I was not disappointed. It was delicious.I would recommend this restaurant to vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Superb quality, excellent service and exceptional value for money.Thank you all at Legh Arms.

Called in en route to Southport and had a soup and sandwich deal!! Really tasty and a great Pot of tea to go with it!! Will certainly call again next time we are passong.

First, let me correct Trip Advisor's geographically challenged placing of this delightful food pub in Preston: PR post code and 01772 phone number, yes, but Mere Brow is part of Tarleton parish within West Lancashire, and nearer to Southport than Preston.We dropped in while passing to check out the current menu and were sufficiently impressed to book (as recommended) for Saturday, even lunchtime. The beer from the associated Hop Vine brewery and the house wine were excellent. A change of mind led to us phoning next day to move the booking to the start of the evening food service at 5.30pm: no problem. We arrived a little early to find one foursome already seated and 'reserved' signs on all the tables. We located ours, got starter drinks from the bar – the excellent Mere Blonde for me and a good red wine for Sue. The waitress brought us the menus before the official start of food service and then went to the foursome to tell them 'The chef is happy to take your order now and not wait.' The menu is large and interesting – occasionally eclectic – but I went for the steak and ale pie with garden peas and real chips (not the skinny ones offered with some dishes) while Sue tried the fettucine bolognaise. Service was excellent – after we'd ordered the food, someone came round from the bar to ask if we wanted another drink – we did. We knew portions would be large (steaks and gammon come in at 10oz as would one of the fish dishes) and that also applied to our portions: very full plates. Not just full, but well hot and completely delicious food. Meanwhile, even this early in the evening it was filling up all around us, with family parties and groups with a wide age range.We were able to get the bill without hassle – another good sign – and left well replete with the intention of returning fairly soon – well, with excellent food, great service, good beer and wine, and economically priced, of course we'll be back.

This is a wonderful little pub/restaurant out in the country.Lots of choice, wonderful food & lots of it

Having been regulars at the owner's other enterprise - the HopVine in Burscough - for the past few months, we had high hopes for the Legh Arms. We weren't disappointed. Everything that is good about the HopVine can be found here plus the benefit of a lovely countryside location. The menu is well balanced, the food excellent and the ale first class. Service was friendly and efficient and the prices very reasonable. Can't wait for our next visit.

We stopped for Sunday lunch while passing. We had a nice meal overall. I had the beef which was a blade of beef more stewed beef than roast beef, the potatoes were deep fried rather than roasted but all tasted good. My wife had a cold and couldn't taste much of her broccoli & Stilton risotto. An ok meal just maybe not for us. The place was very busy with us getting the last table available, a good place for basic home made grub.

Food was lovely and staff very friendly making this an enjoyable family meal out.The cask ales were very good too!! :) Highly recommended.

The lunch menu is well-balanced and the quality and price is excellent in this bijou pub restaurant. Service and welcome is always the same :) The whole experience has you looking forward to your next visit - best to book in advance though!

While staying overnight in the area we called on spec for a meal.. First of all the smooth flow bitter was absolutely gorgeous, and the prices were brilliant. My husband and I had a short wait at the bar until a table came available. Once seated we both chose steak and ale pie. The pie was delicious with big chunks of tender lean beef and a lovely pastry, this was accompanied with chips, mushy peas and gravy. The only thing to spoil the meal was the chips. I asked the waitress if they were 'proper' chips and she said yes. They were not very nice and tasted of the oil they had been cooked in which wasn't pleasant. This let the meal down.

Visited here for the first time recently and wasn't sure whether I would like the place or the food or not. I was wrong. It is so warm and cosy and the food options vary. Im bad when it comes to food (being fussy) but I really enjoyed the meal I had here. The staff are really lovely too. Recommend this place

Very good atmosphere, very good food, very good beer. A busy comfortable pub in convenient location, advisable to book.

As fans, and regulars, of The Hop Vine in Burscough, we thought we'd try Mike and Julie's new venture. It is small and traditional inside and clearly a work in progress, but we received a warm welcome and were shown to our table promptly. Likewise, the menu is also small and traditional, but definitely something for everyone. My teenage son loved the retro 'chicken in a basket' and my steak was cooked perfectly, however, both daughters complained that their fish and chips and chicken goujons tasted slightly greasy as though the oil hadn't been changed recently.I am sure that with a bit of love and attention, the Legh Arms will become a real contender and will be a welcome addition to the local community

Went for a Sunday family meal, be warned best to book as it is only a small venue. As a family we ordered the Sunday roasts, gammon, a children's pasta and I had a starter prawn cocktail with fries. Food was well presented and a all agreed tasted good. The puddings were £4.95 each so we decided not to bother. Within an hour and we were back home, so served quick great for the little one. Note that there is no high chairs for babies/ toddlers. I have a portable one which we attached to a chair.

What a fantastic lunch , my 10year old daughter doesn't usually pick things of the kids menu as most places think children should only eat nuggets but what a fantastic pasta dish she received with garlic bread , a generous portion and she loved it ( so did we )My husband and myself had two starters each instead of a main and they were all delicious and a high standard of attention to detail with interesting ingredients and dips and sauces , it made you excited to look at the food and it all tasted great , friendly, pleasant and attentive staff , we can't wait to go back again , yummy yum yum :)

We called in for lunch and we were offered a table in the back room where the kitchen is situated. I wasn't interested in the chef's personal life, but found it difficult to concentrate on the menu, let alone have a conversation, over the banter emanating from the John Bishop wannabe!! Add to that the eye watering hot fat haze filling the room and strong cooking smells from the open kitchen - so we asked if another table was available in another room? We were given a table in the front bar area by the waitress who told me I wouldn't have noticed the noise from the kitchen if the pub had been busier! I think I would actually. After a shaky start we ordered fish & chips which were delicious - waitress service good. Moral of the tale - avoid a table in the draughty back room and go on a busy day to drown out the noise from the kitchen.

Fantastic Food and great selection of Beer at a very very reasonable price. Been here twice now and will definitely be going again. Simply the best Pub Grub I've ever had and some very nice beers on draft.

We didn't book and thought we'd chance it on a Friday evening, didn't have high hopes when we arrived and found the car park almost full. However our luck was in and we managed to get the 'kitchen' table, which was fine. It was good to see the food being prepared to order, cooked properly without the pinging of a microwave.The waiting on staff were efficient, attentive and polite, don't think we've ever had a waitress apologise for interrupting to check on how we were finding our meal.We went for the dipping bread for one which was really delicious focaccia and a lovely herby/mint/chilli jam type dip at the bottom of the oil. A nice change to the usual balsamic offerings. We also shared garlic mushrooms which had a good filling.For mains we decided on haddock and chips and scampi. The scampi was lovely and the breadcrumbs crisp. I loved the pea purée that came with this, very tasty, I was so taken with this that it distracted me from the also delicious homemade chunky tartare sauce Everywhere serving scampi should provide this as superior alternative to chasing garden peas around your plate. The fish dish was reported as good but only because of what is a personal preference being that less batter would have made it a very good dish for my fellow diner. The generous portions meant we couldn't manage a dessert unfortunately but what we saw of these leaving the kitchen they did look good.A really pleasant experience and would recommend to others based on our first impressions and experience of this place.

We have been here a couple of times and the last time before Xmas was not good at all. My wife found some form of tissue paper in the potatoes and when I brought it to the attention of the landlady she was quite rude. Will not be going back and would not recommend.

Popped in for a quick lunch without booking ahead - no free tables in restaurant area but we were happy to sit in the bar area. Well prepared and cooked food - and good value

We went today for the first time on recomendation from a friend we where made to feel very welcome from VERY friendly & helpful staff the food was of good quality & good portion size no chain ding food here !!!!we had =1x Jacobs Ladder 1x Hot Steak & Onion Sandwich 2x sticky toffee Puds 1&1/2 pints coke 1x latte = £38.65which we thought was AMAZING value for what we got we also liked all the little extras (wet wipes for hands, biscuit with coffe & mint imperials)we will defo go back

I feel a little mean in scoring the Legh Arms as 'Average', but I do so in the context of the full range of eating establishments. Amongst village pubs it might reasonably warrant 'Very Good' - the staff were faultless, the drinks were good (including local beer), there was a wide range of food from 3 menus (one Christmas) reasonably priced, the food we chose was all good and enjoyed by the family (but the volume a little overwhelming at lunchtime). So it delivered 'what it says on the...' pub sign; I will be happy to go there again.

Well prepared and well presented meal. Generous portions, fresh salad, good beer, just the place fir a relaxing lunch

This is mine and my partners go to place when we just can't be bothered cooking and washing up, usually on a Sunday afternoon. We probably come here once every few weeks and it's consistently great. Good quality food, well cooked and the service cannot be faulted. I have also attended in larger groups of friends and family. Child friendly and reasonable in price. If you go on a Sunday and the roast dinner is beef you HAVE to have it. It's a very close second to grandma's roast dinners!!! Booking essential as a very popular place. Not a bad word to say

I booked during the day Friday and found they were completely full for a 19.30 table.Rather than lose the booking the lady asked me if I minded a table by the kitchen which I accepted gladly.We had a starter and a main course each and garlic bread and neither of us could manage a desert! We both have good appetites!The food was excellent and should not be confused with 'pub grub'.It was so refreshing to not be offered 'hand crafted chips' nonsense or skinny fries. The chips were superb! All washed down with large glasses of Malbec.The experience was enhanced by attentive,effective and pleasant staff and I was amazed that no one in the kitchen looked over 35!I highly recommend the Legh Arms for quality and value and I will be back!
