this pub regularly visited in the 60s, can remember a car on the flat dach and the beer was woven from miniature petrol pumps and many motorists memorandumilia and old photos of cars with a carpet with old types of cars in them. it was a great attraction in the 60s View all feedback.
What Sue Hankinson doesn't like about The Derby Arms:
Fish and chips were poor and the decor was tired. However, I find it very hard to stomach a nappy change in front of us on the floor of the pub whilst we were eating. View all feedback.
Lovely place breakfast was excellent ,judging by the amount of people there a lot of other peop think so too.Our dog was welcome which was great
I previously reviewed Thorpeys Fish and Chip Restaurant located further north on the A6 last year. I found the fish and accompanying dishes to be satisfactory, but I was disappointed by the poor quality of the chips, which were soggy and caused indigestion. Unfortunately, it appears that the quality of the chips has not improved, and I recommend that they use the appropriate potatoes (Maris Piper). Due to this ongoing issue, I have decided not to visit again.
Went back for the 2nd time, we were greeted with same excuse, short of staff Food good but very very slow to get drinks waited 25 min for one glass of wine had to ask 3 x!! It's very local to us but we will not be back until we here there have been fast improvement to the service and atmosphere! Sorry to have to write a negative report!
Had a chippy tea from the Thorpey's- dreadful. Potatoes soggy on outside and uncooked on the inside and fish was greasy. Back to using Great Eccleston!
We discovered this charming pub/restaurant on a bank holiday Monday. The decor and menu are a mix of modern and traditional. We chose to sit outside because the weather was delightful. There were tables available in both the shade and the sun, making it a perfect spot. The food was delicious and the desserts were fantastic. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Plus, they are dog-friendly as well.
