Farmers Arms Inn — Restaurant in England

If tales of tavern glory and culinary conquests tickle your fancy, then fasten your seatbelts. We’re taking a detour to The Farmers Arms in St Merryn, where the atmosphere is as rich as their gravy (more on that later). 🍽️

Strategically positioned at a crossroads that’s more popular than a sunny spot on a chilly day, this gem doesn’t just face a petrol station; it stands as a testament to good food, great company, and an even greater welcome. And let's not forget its prime location across from that tempting fish & chip shop. It's like the universe conspired to bring all good things together at one junction.

Parking's a breeze, thanks to their futuristic ANPR system. Just don't forget to register your carriage upon arrival, or you might find yourself with a magical slip of paper demanding gold. 🚙✨

Dog aficionados, rejoice! The Farmers Arms could well be the utopia you’ve been dreaming of. Here, dogs aren’t just allowed; they’re celebrated. Fancy a sleepover? Their B&B rooms are ready to pamper your pooch. Imagine that – a pub that loves your dog as much as you do. 🐕‍🦺

Waltzing in for lunch is as easy as pie, but when it comes to dinner, and especially their legendary Sunday Carvery, making a reservation is as essential as seasoning in cooking. Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on this feast.

Ah, the Sunday Carvery. It was Mothering Sunday when our party of 14 descended upon this culinary haven, each dish served was a testament to the chefs' dedication and skill. And yes, while I navigate the tricky seas of potato starch intolerance, the team at The Farmers Arms navigated it with me. Though the gravy was off-limits (crafted with the usual potato starch), the chefs kindly whipped up some fresh rice. And when it came to the cauliflower cheese, extra cheese sauce on my plate made for a delightful substitute. 🧀

About the Yorkshire Pudding – while tales of its enormity have been greatly exaggerated (by me, in a previous telling), let me set the record straight: it was a perfectly normal size but crafted with such skill that it felt like a feast in its own right.

Meats? Oh, the meats. Asking for a bit of each – beef, turkey, and gammon – I was presented with a bounty fit for royalty. Each slice was a masterpiece: tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection.

Accompanied by a hearty selection of fresh vegetables, the meal was a symphony of flavours, a true celebration of farm-to-table freshness.

In summary, The Farmers Arms is not just a pub; it's a slice of paradise for food lovers, dog enthusiasts, and anyone in between. With its heartwarming atmosphere and culinary prowess, it’s a beacon of joy in Cornwall. I’m already plotting my return to this bastion of delight and highly recommend you do the same.

For those in search of joy, a full belly, and perhaps a new favorite spot, look no further than The Farmers Arms. Your table...

They couldn’t have done more to make us happy.||This isn’t a posh pub restaurant, nor is it a ropey pub. It was just what was needed after a long day on the beach. ||We arrived with no booking, on a busy summer holiday period and on a Sunday carvery special. Welcoming and warmly received we were quickly shown to a table. ||A simple menu with a good selection of ‘pub grub’. When it arrived it was obviously a little bit special. Warning; the portions are large. Rare is it that I can’t finish a plate and this was one of those times. ||We had 2 double stack burgers (this can be a single but not shown on the menu), chicken burger, dirty nachos and two portions of garlic bread. Total cost with some drinks was around £71 for the four of us. We were offered takeaway boxes for our leftovers which was nice. The burgers were really well cooked and a good thick patty too. ||If I were being super picky, I mean really picky, perhaps the triple-cooked chips weren’t as good as the rest, but they were still very tasty. ||When serving my burger, the waiter accidentally dropped it off the plate. He was very polite and apologetic as was the manager. They refused me paying for it even though it wasn’t...
