Haven't been for a while but it was fab x I had the ultimate burger and hubby had the mixed grill. Don't know how they make the onion that goes in the burger but it was lovely 😍. Not overly expensive for food and drinks. Despite what some people say there are plenty of signs regarding the carpark and the machine for entering your reg is right in front of you as you enter the pub x we will be back soon 😉 👏

Very good local pub. Can get busy sometimes, so you may have to wait for service, but generally better than average. Lots of different seating areas, including quite a large open area at the back with covered tables. Remember to enter your car registration number when you go in, or you will get fined! Large TV for sports/news at one end of the lounge, with a cosy seating area behind. Open fires in the winter. Staff usually helpful and friendly. Disabled access and disabled parking at the front. Food is generally good value for money and we've never had to wait long - they have quite an efficient system. The Open Arms is probably one of the best in Coventry.

The food was very poor quality. Steak over cooked. Onion rings were like scraps, not even rings. Half a roast chicken was two measly dried up pieces - absolute joke and they should be ashamed of themselves. Very disappointing indeed. Obviously this place is trying to save money well it’s backfired and you will lose customers if you carry on like this. Avoid this place at all costs.

Massive thank you to The Open Arms . My daughter received a parking fine for not knowing she had to enter her registration in the pub. I contacted them to see if it was worth us appealing and they took control. We emailed Melissa with the fine and a receipt to prove she had been in the pub and within an hour the parking company had cancelled the fine. So impressed with the quick response. My daughter now knows to check parking notices!!!

Parking fine, went to have social drink with friend as we both work in Coventry but live 200 miles away, but I have small flat in Coventry. We did not see any sign for parking charges, may have missed it becuse it so small. Received a parking fine for £100, tried calling pub several times with no-one answering after 10 times had to give up. The disappointment was, the card machine was not working so we paid in cash, no traceability I was fined but my friend car was not been picked up and he has not got ticket through post. ( lucky him ) I would also like to state, that bar staff should make the customer aware, as I have been to other pubs with same parking set up and always told to punch in number on the machine. I would be appricate if they even tried to contact me on here !

Not happy with the parking management but the manager has taken the time to explain the reasons why they were left with no choice on this. Would be nice if staff could remind customers, we dont all see the signs because we're not paying attention...pub is full switch off and relax mode. Please take note (and im a stickler for detail normally) So that aside... Great food, price, atmosphere since I first started coming here in the early 90s. Another pub making people register for parking.

She was also at the table multiple times checking on us, collecting empty glasses, bringing more drinks... She was so nice. also brought my husband little bday treat, super thoughtful and cute. Food was amazing, super fresh and cooked to perfection. Place was packed as well, no chance to get in without booking. Amazing atmosphere, can't wait to go back. Thank you for your hospitality

It's been redecorated recently and it looks alot fresher. Toilets are lovely. Garden it's alot better with added lights, but heat lamps above some of the benches. More of a bite to eat type place other than a good drink type place in my opinion. I would recommend a visit if your passing.
