The Oddfellows Arms — Restaurant in England

popped along to the odd fellows yesterday for a birthday meal, and although this pub has never served food in the past and we uncertain a to what to expect we were pleasantly surprised to say the least, on arrival the bar staff were very friendly and accommodating, the pub had a wonderful atmosphere, plenty of kids including our own playing out on the green which is really nice to see as it seems to be a rarity these days with the age of computer! we sat down for dinner a table of 9, and baring in mind it was just Lewis and Jo the landlords cooking the dinner service was super smooth, the rabbit ballantine which was a first for myself came out with bacon bits and a chicken jus was succulent and to die for and the 2 vegan welsh rarebits ( not on the menu, special order) came to the table and were devoured in seconds, the cod bites were fluffy and fresh, when all the mains came out there was complete silence as everyone tucked in to some fantastic main dishes, and deserts were exactly the same, basically it was all lovely home cooked to a high standard and exceeded our expectations. Well worth a visit and we are already booked in for christmas dinner, to beat the rush. P.S it seems like Lewis and Jo have put a lot of love into these fantastic menus and I'm sure that this pub will be a regular for myself and...

I wasn’t previously a regular at the Oddfellows but my husband and I stopped in yesterday when passing and was warmly welcomed by Jamie who has now taken over the pub. Really nice to know that it’s been taken over by a local and I’m sure Jamie will more than do the place justice.

The pub has had a lovely refurb and the interior is warm and inviting (love the gorgeous terrariums dotted about).

No food on offer yet but it is in Jamie’s future plans. Looking forward to seeing what mobile food vendors/trucks he’ll be getting in for the interim.

Good luck Jamie and team, we’ll see you...
