Four of us went here for an evening meal during the week, there were a few local drinkers but not many diners. We had reserved a table but I don't think it is necessary. We all ordered the rump steak all varying between rare and well done. All the steaks were cooked perfectly and served with traditional garnish-chips, mushrooms tomato... More

we recently had a most enjoyable evening at The Derby Arms, Having reserved a table at 7.30 it was good to see how busy and popular it was. We found a good choice of real ales and were met by Adam,the manager who was most helpful and shown to our table. Having had lunch earlier in the day,we went straight... More

The only thing I can say positively about this pub is the quality and range of the beers. How can this be considered a 'special place to stay'?

Alas, my most important criterion for assessing a restaurant is the quality of the food eaten, which in this case was not very good. The pasta we had was overcooked. The... More

One was outside with it's owner having a pint and two others were in the bar. All well behaved and unobtrusive. There was a nice relaxed atmosphere, very friendly staff and a great... More

We visited the restaurant a couple of weeks ago (having booked a table) never been before. The staff were very friendly, and we had a very relaxed evening,with lovely food and locally brewed beer. The only thing that spoilt the evening were the ladies toilets- that were dated and not clean. More

This was our 4th trip to the Derby Arms, we really like the real ale, log fire and general relaxed atmosphere. We always have the steak and big chips because usually they are so good. Two medium cooked steaks were order and the first surprise was that they were served in a bowl. The member of staff who served us... More
