Lovely pub with amazing staff and great atmosphere. Love the fact they're trying to make as many dishes possible home-made... Even the cheesecakes! We'll definitely be back :). The ribs were amazing and so big!

That's what I call an old traditional pub. Has its original look in these modern times. With low ceilings, and its beams, you might want to mind your head, all you 6ft plus punters. Its bigger than it looks, a nice little bar & lounge area. Food, cooked to order. Tasty & very filling. Bartender is a super friendly guy. Like I was in my local.

Friendly place for a good value afternoon coffee. Plenty of parking, clean toilets, nice big comfy table, friendly service and nice cappuccino. Great place to meet friends for a relaxed quiet chat and it’s just down the road from the beautiful Brandon Marsh nature reserve.

There is obviously new management here since our last visit a couple of years ago. We dropped in today and was amazed at the difference. From first contact with the lovely lady behind the bar and throughout our visit, the service was friendly, welcoming and very attentive. Hats off to Ian, who seemed to be rushing around, doing the job of many, he smashed it with a constant smile. Courses ran smoothly, no long wait in between. Can't fault the food, service or location. Very pleasant experience all round.

Wonderful village pub with friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Part of the community with a great marquee for footie fans and very generous American influenced food. Huge pizzas, burgers and fried chicken strips followed by waffles or crepes... very good value!

The guys at the Blacksmiths have done an absolutely cracking job re-establishing the village pub since taking over. Great new menu as well as specials on several nights a week, super value for money and the quality they are putting out is getting better and better each time we go. The atmosphere in the bar is warm fun and welcoming, they’ve really given our village its pub back! Thanks team we love you x

Cannot thank these guys enough for a lovely time we had. They opened their kitchen especially for us on a night they don't serve food. We had family traveling from as far as Bedford so the blacksmith arms was a perfect location for us. Cannot fault the food and the service was perfect. Thank you for making my daughter's birthday special 💓. The steak is amazing
Owner response

The food was awesome, really tasty an looked great. Looking forward to trying more of the menu. Would highly recommend! Looking forward to going in for food when Covid is over.

New management the very week we decided to have Sunday roast. Lovely food, cooked just right, with the best cauliflower cheese I've had in a long time. Would definitely recommend.
