About This Pub
Ah, the Grace Arms – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From the moment you walk in, the staff are on point, always cheerful and quick to sort you out, which really adds to the whole experience. The food's a standout too; I've heard rave reviews about the steaks and ribs, and those budget-friendly deals mean you can tuck into something hearty without breaking the bank. Plus, with live sports on the screens and a beer garden that's ideal for a sunny afternoon, it's spot on for watching the big games or just unwinding with friends. On the flip side, it does get packed during major events, so you might end up jostling for space, and the menu's more about solid classics than anything groundbreaking – think comforting pub grub rather than gourmet surprises. All in all, it's a solid choice for a casual night out; I'd say give it a try if you're in the area, as the positives far outweigh the minor niggles, and it's all about that welcoming feel that keeps folks coming back.

Recent Reviews
The pub boasts a truly exceptional team behind the bar, always ready with a smile and swift service. Their attentiveness and friendly demeanor truly elevated the experience. And speaking of exceptional, the steak was cooked to absolute perfection, a testament to the kitchen's skill. It was a delightful evening, made even better by the welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend a visit to experience it for yourself.
Came in for a catch up lunch with a friend and a few games of pool. We sat in the over 18s section and the atmosphere was great! We ordered from the 2 for £13.49 menu and we were not disappointed! We ordered the fish and chips and the hunters chicken skillet. The bar staff were very knowledgeable when I asked what type of fish it was, they recommended that I have the fish with lemon and it was absolutely delicious! My friend asked for some modifications to her meal and everything was met to the highest standard. Thank you to Andy for being so accommodating while we were ordering, will definitely be coming back again soon!

Lovely friendly welcome on arrival and fantastic friendly service throughout. It was my wife and I first visit to the grace arms and it certainly will not be the last. The food is gorgeous and the ribs were absolutely incredible. The staff are fantastic as well. This pub is a proper gem and we will certainly travel back here very soon.
The staff, atmosphere and punters at the Grace Arms are always very friendly.
It's a great pub for locals and visitors alike with a wide selection of drinks and a great selection of food.
Having eaten here a number of times, we've never been disappointed, especially on a quiet early week day visit. The 2 for 1 offers are amazing value for money in these difficult times.
Note/ Be warned it can be busy for BIG sports events, as they have screens in the family and adult only sides of the bar.
Bonus feature... It's Dog Friendly, so you will encounter 4 legged friends.
