Didn't have food. Stated in the area for a long weekend break. The landlord and land lady were so lovely, friendly and very welcoming. The pub itself was warm and comfortable, and the local people were incredibly nice. Also very dog friendly which is a bonus.

Really looking forward to our Sunday lunch, booked for 2pm arrived at 1.50pm, seated for 2pm, meal order taken at 2.17pm, meal finally arrived at 2.53pm (nearly 1hr after sitting down ) the Yorkshire pudding,meat and the roast potatoes were luke warm, when the man asked how things were I told him they were cold and he went into the back and I heard him say to the staff that I said things were cold. Nobody came and said anything, ate the meal as we were both hungry didn't bother with a pudding as people at the next table were still waiting for their puddings after half a hour, but mentioned the food was cold to the bar staff when I paid but they didn't seem bothered.

Had Sunday lunch on 8/9 it was amazing. Plenty of fresh, home cooked food. Pudding list was so varied my husband had two as he couldn't choose. Again they were all homemade. Staff so friendly and welcoming as we are not from the area. If your passing id 100% recommend

We called in on the off chance, as there are few places to eat around Chapel St Leonard’s. We really enjoyed our meals and the dog was made welcome as well. Good selection of drink and food, the staff were attentive. It’s a shame we found it at the end of week away.

Just been to the Willoughby Arms for a Sunday lunch, what a beautiful roast dinner it was, plenty of lovely cooked meat on all of our dinners, the mash was buttery and as for the cauliflower cheese, well it just melted in your mouth, but the best was the meaty gravy, proper homecooked food. Puddings were super tasty aswell, the cheesecake was beautiful, but best of all was the staff, they were welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble, a must visit if in the area, you won't be dissapointed 😀

What a gem! We had never been to this pub before but were made to feel instantly welcome. We had the Friday fish and chip deal which was incredible for the price. Blue Moon was on tap and served with a slice of orange. We had 2 dogs in our party who were also most welcome with fuss and water. It’s very well supported by the locals and there are a lot of events throughout the month including sticky 13, bingo and music nights. It was too cold for the beer garden but that looked a nice additional facility for the warmer months. Toilets were very very clean - the men’s even had novelty urinals… We were visited at our table by a friendly local gentleman who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He promoted the summer fete that will take place in July. We can see why this pub is successful- its got a unique local atmosphere that you just don’t get very often nowadays. We shall definitely return!

We visit my sister who lives in farlsthorpe near Alford and have been before and always loved the food, unfortunately our main course wasn't as good as we have previously experienced which was a shame as it was for her birthday. My wife's fish wasn't as nice as previously had and my pie seemed to have been microwaved a s pastry was soft and not firm as I would have expected. Shame really but I'm sure we will be back

The food as always was amazing , all fresh veg beautifully cooked. The plates are always hot so the food does not go cold, so important. Whenever you go the food is of the same quality. The staff always make you feel welcome, we take our little dog with us and he usually has a sausage. Sitting area outside, some is undercover and is always kept pristine, drink bowls for the dogs and a lovely grassed area for the children to play on. We would really recommend this as a lovely place to eat with the family and as a couple.

Had my mum's wake here after her green burial at Birdsong a couple miles away, the food was excellent. We opted for meals off the menu instead of a buffet because of food intolerances, every meal was done to perfection, big portions at decent prices everyone was impressed, well done to Tony the chef you did us proud! Picture of gluten free sausages and ribeye steak on a different visit! The men loved the beer barrel urinals 😆

Review of Willoughby Arms May 2023 I've been trying to get here for the last couple of years but my vacant slots have never coincided with the pub's open/meal times . A late cancellation & I make Thursday lunchtime of their winter opening hours. SO glad I did. First the Batemans XB bitter is excellent . I opted for the main course of the “pie of the week” [steak & ale] which was home-made . It came with lovely home-made chips and a selection of four beautifully cooked vegetables. Followed up with lemon meringue pie & ice cream and another ½ of Batemans . The pub's location is excellent . Lovely village and lots of outside seating .The visit was a quiet day [mid-week off-season] but I imagine its a lot more popular as the weather improves . For those interested its also dog friendly. Please see the photo of the main course. As an holidaymaker I'm now back home but already looking to a return visit next month to try other items on the menu [& also need to fit in the Sunday roast – which I'd been recommended to]
