   This was our first time dining out at The Volunteer Arms, also with a baby. All staff were so friendly and kind moving us to more suitable table to accommodate the pram. Food was delicious, well presented and served all at the same time, which we loved. Nobody was kept waiting. Overall marks - 10/10 from everyone! We will definitely be back.

   The service was really good, the music was not loud but they turned it down as we were sitting under the speaker. The food was delicious especially the chips I will recommend to friends and will definitely be booking again

   Tracy and the girls are always fantastic! They are so lovely and welcoming each and every time we are in. We come once a month for our book club and enjoy fantastic food and cocktails (the margaritas in particular are our fav!!). The girls couldn’t be nicer and always on hand to help with anything at all. The service is top notch and we always look forward to our next visit! Thank you so much girls xx

   The welcome and the staff are always first class. The birthday banner just made it even more special

   Only had drinks so please ignore the food rating. Overall it was a good experience. And would go there again. The staff were very friendly and gave great service. Only disappointment was that I booked a sofa seat and was given a table and chairs instead.

    We had a wonderful meal here on christmas eve. The food was top notch. Everything was piping hot including the plates which is a must for me! The staff were amazing & ensured that we were kept topped up with drinks etc. We were served by the wonderful Lucy who always makes our visits pleasurable with her friendly attentive attitude. This is the second year we have done christmas eve dinner here & it's now our new tradition as it does not disappoint. 10 out of 10.
