The Bakers Arms offers a mixed dining experience, ranging from unsatisfactory service and lackluster food to outstanding fish and chips that are a must-try. The ambiance can be hit or miss, with some feeling unwelcome, while others appreciate the warm and friendly atmosphere. Apart from inconsistent experiences and questionable cleanliness in the toilets, loyal customers praise the excellent food quality and value, along with the welcoming staff. Dog-friendly and serving a variety of dishes, the Bakers Arms remains a popular spot for locals and passersby alike, with a reputation for serving one of the best fish and chips around.
