Farmers Arms — Restaurant in Borough of Wyre

Didn't even know this place did food till we popped in on the off chance they might.

Glad we did the food was bloody lovely.

Starters

Hubby had the creamy garlic mushrooms to start with and I had the chicken liver pate. Both presented well and tasted good.

The sauce on the mushrooms was so smooth and velvety I'll admit I got a bit of food envy.

The pate was a good one, loved the presentation on a slate and the toast to pate ratio was spot on.

Mains

I had sizzling chicken fajitas and he had the sirloin steak stroganoff.

Fajitas filling came out on a sizzling hot plate and was served with a side plate of 2 wraps, salad, coleslaw and chips. Very tasty, glad I asked for some mayo though as I'm rubbish with spice and I found them to be a bit on the hot side. Still really enjoyed the meal.

Hubby was very impressed with the sirloin steak stroganoff. Decent size strips of meat cooked well and the sauce was silky and smooth and complimented the meat very well.

All in all lovely experience with professional and friendly staff in a welcoming environment...

Since our last visit the menu has changed so we were looking forward to a platter but had to choose again. Hubby ordered prawn cocktail but sadly they were shrimps so he gave a 3*. I had garlic mushroom with brown bread rather than garlic bread. These were very nice but the sauce could have been a little thinner and more of it next time please. Not a great deal to choose from for the smaller appetite. The kitchen was spotless and the lady behind the bar was very friendly and welcoming. Beer good but Zinfandel rose needs changing as way to sweet. Landlord/landlady, try a Pinot Blush/Rose. A medium wine which is tasty and ideal for most pallets. Please stop those tiny bottles of Zinfandel rose wine. A very cheap wine and does not do the digestion a lot of good. We'll see you again one...

Came here for a meal on a weekday. We arrived at approximately 17:30. And the place was deserted lest but a few around the bar. I wondered about the quality if it was so quiet as the car park of a rival was fairly full. But had seen decent reviews. Ordered the burger which was decent and well presented and steak pie which was ok but for a bit too much salt. Really good portion sizes which was quite deceiving as it didn't look that much. Plenty of decent lean meat. The pastry was a little stodgy and meal lost a point for this and a lost point for a complete lack of atmosphere. It was a bit dingy and dark but as I pointed out to my partner there is only you can do with a really old building. The price was very reasonable I think the two mains came to £25. So...
