We booked the private dining room for a birthday celebration and have to say it was perfect! We had liaised with Craig, the manager over the last 4 weeks and he ensured all our requirements were met. We arrived last Saturday night to be greeted by Charlotte and our party of 17 was shown to the room, she was extremely helpful and friendly. The room had been set out as we wanted it and decorated tastefully. Charlotte checked that the pre-order was correct and arranged for the first courses to be served. Food was exceptional, gaps between courses so we could chat and staff very attentive to ensure drinks were topped up when needed and any sauces etc. were required plus checking to ensure the food was OK. The party was a great success and everyone enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere. Many thanks to Charlotte, Aaron and Joe, who all worked hard to ensure the night was enjoyed by all and were a credit the Vane Arms. Thanks also to the Chefs, who created some great dishes and all served in a timely manner, highly recommend the crème brûlée, absolutely perfect!

Came here as part of a celebration event. The staff were great and couldn't fault them. The catering wasn't what I was expecting. Occupational uncooked wedges, anaemic looking sausage rolls and scarcity of vegetables. The venture itself is decently sized and has adequate parking.

Our 2nd visit to this Excellent pub, they do 2 for £15 even on a Friday night where lots of pubs are Monday to Thursday only. They have 3 or 4 flavour thatchers on draught that I can't find anywhere else. Warm and welcoming. As a party of 4 we sat in the corner out the way and ordered food and a couple of drinks.... Very reasonable prices. The lad came over 20mins ahead of time to let us know the child in the group had to leave so no rushing about. Definitely somewhere we will be returning to. I would say the car park seems small for the size of the pub and you would expect parking issues but we have never had a problem getting parked.

I would never have guessed this pub is part of the Stonegate empire. It really does have the feel of a cosy local where the staff were engaging and helpful and the food was good VFM pub food. Not a gastropub but definitely fit for purpose. We'll be back.

Is Billingham’s Toby Carvery where mediocre chefs go to die? Today (17/09/24) I had what I can only describe as the most disgusting meal I’ve had prepared by allegedly professional chefs. If I had served such poor quality food to paying customers, I’d throw myself off the restaurant’s roof. The food was over cooked, cold, tasteless and disgusting. I have literally thrown out better quality food that I’d prepared myself. Any self respecting chef would feel embarrassed serving such a poor quality food. The irony is the elderly lady in front of me asked for warm gravy, the carving chef was abrupt and rude to her saying “our gravy is always hot don’t be such a rude old lady”. Well young man, it wasn’t. My beer was warmer! I know that the Toby Carvary chain is cheap and cheerful’ but please chefs have some pride in your cooking and respect for your customers. If today was you at your best, it’s time to resign and find an alternative career. Today’s efforts was inexcusable.

We have frequented this pub for many years on and off but will not be returning. There are too many dogs if you don't like dogs then DO NOT GO The girls serving the food were all over the dogs and then serving the food and collecting glasses. There is no need to let dogs in the main pub plenty of room outside!
