Called at the Stanley for a meal on spec about 4pm on Sunday afternoon and we were delighted with all aspects of our visit - our party size was four and although the restaurants were busy we were seated within five minutes. The service and food were both excellent and I would suggest that like us you judge for yourselves this establishment. The food is home made wholesome cooking - reasonably priced and in abundance - give it a try we were so glad we did.

Well what can i say about this pub :D. I have visited the pub various time and each time i have 5 star home cooked food. This time we decided to use the stanley arms for our first school reunion. We was quite big and the pub itself was quite busy too. We was welcome by the manager of the pub who made us feel very welcome. We found the manager of the pub very funny and up for a laugh. We was served very fast even though the pub was very busy. All the staff at the pub where helpfully and polite. While we was at the pub all the staff couldnt do enough to make sure we enjoyed our time. When our food arrived it all arrived together and it was good to ...  Read the complete review

I decided to have my 50th at the Stanley Arms over the August bank holiday at short notice for around 40 people.It was a great night enjoyed by all.The staff were friendly and helpfull.The food was exceptional.We are planning to hire the conservatory on a regular basis as it was such a good night.

our table for 14 was booked for 1:30pm on sunday 13th march 2011. On entering the pub we found ourselves in a very cramped area waiting to be seated. With no room people had to push passed us to get to the toilets. At 2:10pm we had to find the manager to be told our booked table was still in use but he was trying to hurry the people on it along as they came in 1hr 30 late. 2:35pm We where finally seated and orders taken. 3:10pm Our starters arrived and where disgraceful my ribs arrived in a soup of grease and oil the pea and bacon soup had no bacon, the garlic mushrooms again really greasy. So bad was the food we went back to the bar and bought some skittles. The mains turned up at 3:40pm Sadly in worst state than the starters,

The management were rude, unhelpful and I can not write a bad enough review of this establishment. To celebrate a family event, fathers 86th birthday, we booked for a large (9) famly group. The table was crowded and meant for 6, but they squeezed 9 in. After ordering from the menu - we had to visit the bar to get drinks ourselves, comment from the staff "we are too busy to serve you". The food arrived in dribs and drabs, first some starters then some main courses for people who hadnt yet had starters !. When I tried to attract someones attention, the reaction was always the same, "I will look into it" When I found someone who seemed to be in charge ...  Read the complete review
