   Really nice food, good choice on menu and willing to swap Gluten Free options into most of their menu.

   We enjoyed a lovely meal today - a birthday meal for my husband and we were delighted that staff had decorated our corner appropriately and at end of the meal we were surprised with a special chocolate desert with candle. Thank you so much for making us feel special and thank you to the wonderful cheery waitress

   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
