The Strafford

Its been a while since I was last here but came for a small family gathering. The refurbishment is fabulous and looks amazing. We all had roast dinner and our plates were empty as it was all delicious! The best roast I've had for some time. Our waitress was attentive and very pleasant. Good guidelines in place for COVID and staff and customers wore face coverings.

Had a great christening party for my granddaughter's. Food was amazing. Atmosphere was perfect. The manager couldn't do enough for us. Checking if all was ok, if we needed anything else. She was amazing. The amazing play area for the kids was a god send. Kept them busy and parents could enjoy the party. Would highly recommend

I recently visited the Strafford Arms a few morning last week after finishing my night shifts and have to say very nice pub with very pleasant polite staff. Unfortunately your pub is being let down by your cleaning staff if that's what you can call them. Each time I went in the tables hadn't been cleaned properly, the toilets smelt, no toilet paper and feet sticking to the floor. When I jokingly asked if the cleaner did any work the staff member replied Amber does as little as possible, laugh. Not very good really as there are plenty of people looking for work or a second job.

I used to love this pub. Unfortunately, on Monday I arrived for my sons birthday party (which had been booked in for months), only to be told someone had cancelled it. Mason (one of the bar staff) was a diamond. He helped me move furniture and got our food etc. Apparently food etc was meant to be discussed prior.. this didn’t happen. There was clearly no on shift manager, which was strange to see. I was offered no apology from the manager. When the evening shift started, one of the bar staff, Abby, was dressed so inappropriately I thought she wasn’t on shift until she brought my food out. She had her midriff showing, white trainers and a mini skirt on. I could see her bottom when she bent over. She clearly has a problem with me as she made it a point to turn and stare at me when walking past. Not a good look for a “family friendly” pub

Am unexpectedly surprising pub in potters part, the out for space is massive and looks amazing. Good choice of drinks with take friendly staff. Didn't get to treat the food but the menu looked good, will definitely go back to try the food. Nice place to do and have a drink.

My visit to the Strafford Arms was dominated by some pleasant interaction with Barman Will. He was a polite and obliging young man. We talked about the live Merseyside Derby about to start and I was surprised to see so few patrona attending
He expected more for Manchester Citys live outing at 5.30. I was very tired having walked from Potters Bar railway station and was grateful fir a rest and sift drink before kick off. I had travelled down by train from Durhsm.esroer in the day and was eventually en route to house party in Southgate , London. Will very kindly phoned a taxi for me to get to the Premier Inn South Mimms which I had booked in to for just the Saturday night. His mobile phone was able to track the movements of the taxi and allow me time to prepare myself for leaving the pub on time. Good work and best wishes Will ELLIS COXON

We were visiting my Son he took us for a lunch here. It was lovely friendly staff and good service. Could do with some of the same in our Area!

We reserved a table of 14 people, it was a lovely setting and nice staff members. Everyone's food came at different times unfortunately and with that some issues with the food, however I did acknowledge that it was busy and the management did try there best to resolve most issues. The place is accessible for wheelchair users and has disabled toilets, kids menu, and baby changing room in disabled toilets, Sunday roast, live Football, dogs allowed, has a lovely back garden area, smoking area, cooks, they take reservation bookings, Cash and card payments available, car parking area located in the front.
