We went at lunchtime with only 2 other people eating at the same time, it was very quiet but the service was surprisingly very slow indeed. We waited half an hour for the starter and when my main meal eventually came the string chips were missing. The food was lovely but the wait was far too long.

Recommended to us for it's food and it was absolutely 5* and great value for money. Welcoming and friendly, the lovely staff couldn't have done more to make sure my Dad was comfortable and cared for. He thoroughly enjoyed his visit and it was so nice to see him happy and relaxed so a big thank you to you all at the Murgatroyd Arms

Just had Sunday lunch Ordered garlic mushrooms (which was supposed to come on a toasted brioche) asked for alternative and received a (soursough) different bum very nice. We both ordered Sunday roast beef and mixed meat (not on the menu) Arrived looking lovely and exactly what we both wanted. Tucking in both mash and roast potatoes were flavourless and watery. Beef was full of sinew and ineadible Chicken for me was nice slightly over peppered (my personal taste) Came with mixed roast veg again not for me almost raw parsnips. Carrots I'm ok with and broccoli stems almost like they were out of the garden (again not my taste). And flavourless gravy I've no idea how This is my yes my (not a general) review as others might like food this way Yes I will return as it's local

We visited the murgatroyd Arms as a family of 5. The pub is our local so it was convenient and having visited many times before we know that the food is always delicious and the service is always good. The only negative I could pose is that there was no steak pie left which is my very favourite. Packed full of steak. Would definitely recommend as a place to relax eat drink and enjoy.

I live locally so have been here many times but if I lived further away I'd still make the effort. It never disappoints, Linda and Matt are a brilliant welcoming team and nothing is too much trouble. The food and beer selection is fantastic. I had a home made steak pie with chips which was nothing short of historic. We were a party of 14 and every dish was faultless, clean plates all round said it all.

Five of us for lunch at 230pm. 3 of us had starters. Prawn cocktail, garlic mushrooms and black pudding. Followed by a beef and chicken roast, mushroom stroganoff and meat pie. Derests of apple crumble and lemon merange. Friendly staff and the service was good. On the whole the food was very good and came out in good time. We had a round of drinks and coffee. Not rushed and good atmosphere. Under £100 for a lovely lunch. Will definitely be going again.

I recently visited the Staff of Life for Sunday roast, having moved to the area and been on the hunt for the best one around. After trying several places and feeling let down, this pub finally delivered on the high praise I’d heard. The roast dinner was delicious —especially the rich, flavorful gravy. Portions were generous, and the cozy, traditional English pub atmosphere, complete with a welcoming fire, made the experience even better. The staff were friendly and made me feel right at home. They also offer tasty starters and desserts. I’ll definitely be coming back!

When we arrived we were told we might have to wait up to 40 minutes for the food. As the atmosphere was good and it was quite busy so we thought why not. The lady who looked after us Sarah was lovely and took our orders quickly. She did say they would try their best to bring the food out asap but 40 mins was an estimate. At the end we waited just under 25 minutes for the food to arrive. Sarah made sure we were okay and checked if we were happy. She also talked to our children and they had a good laugh. It was busy but the quality of the food was really good. The portion size was huge and we all enjoyed what we have ordered. We were so happy that we did give extra tips and Sarah was so grateful telling us that she would ensure the chefs get their share too. Overall lovely service.
