   As always, going to the Crathorne Arms has a welcoming relaxed atmosphere with well trained staff Experience a quirky cosy atmosphere Sample the seafood pancakes which are the best. Always happy when we depart Eugene is the host the most ! We are regular patrons and have celebrated many special occasions in their ‘back room’ During the summer the Teepee and outdoor pizza oven creates different pizza It’s a wonderful place for a catch up All in all our favourite place 💕

   No problem here, great service. Just noticing that the kitchen is short cutting too much. By their own standards, a very poor ‘kept warm’ Christmas dinner. Hope they’ll wake up, the front of house team deserve much higher standards than the kitchen/management are delivering.

   It’s always a treat to eat at the Crathorne Arms. This was a very busy evening in the week before Christmas but the staff coped brilliantly and were friendly and cheerful. Great food

   The staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall ambiance of the place was nice. We chose from the £26 fixed price for 2 courses menu and disappointingly, my meal whilst very tasty was just to say lukewarm on arrival especially considering there was very little on the plate! When the head waiter returned to check on everything, I did advise him of this. He immediately apologised (as apparently did the chef), and offered to "heat it up" for me, but I declined as it was my birthday and I didn't want my husband to be eating alone whilst I waited for the microwave to ping so that I too would be eating alone. That said there were other more bountiful plates being served such as christmas dinners and burgers that appeared to be steaming. Maybe I just chose the wrong main?

   Nice venue, though bar area too cold today. Need to start fire earlier. Welcoming staff. Christmas food lunch nice but not outstanding. Medium size portions. Average value for money.
