One of our favourite places to eat. Food is always superb and service is excellent. Prices could be deemed as slightly expensive but quality of food and portion size more than makes up for it. Worth every penny spent here.

Lovely little restaurant, great service, great food.

Have to book online in advance due to covid and limiting numbers, easy enough to do and you get a confirmation e-mail in return. We arrived and our booking was there, so we were shown to our table. General rules around the restaurant, face masks to be worn everywhere bar your table. If you need to use the toilets, it's one in one out and there is a green/red sign outside the toilets to know whether they're vacant or not, just switch it to red as you go in so no-one else comes in. Toilets were clean and tidy, plenty of loo roll, paper towels and a working hand dryer.

All table service, menu's are paper copies and your asked for your drinks order first. Our food order was taken when the waitress returned with the drinks for us. Food didn't take long to arrive at all, we had 2x cooked dinners with some sides, and a big brains burger. Food was gorgeous and served very hot which was great. No complaints whatsoever with that. Our table was cleared quickly and we ordered dessert at the same time. We had 2x of the brains chocolate brownies, and we made requests for extra scoops of ice-cream on both, and for one brownie to be made without the walnuts that were advertised. This caused no issues and staff were happy to oblige. The brains brownies are absolutely gorgeous, made fresh and brought out in their frying pans (hot to touch!) so still hot, gooey and moist. The ice cream I believe is Mario's and it just starts melting on top. So so good and a wonderful treat.

Service was great, we had 3 waitresses in all but 1 was our 'main' one, and she was very polite, upbeat, friendly and helpful. Plenty of staff availability to tend to many tables, Sunday lunchtime so it was relatively busy but everyone was suitably spaced apart. Nothing took long at all, the food, drinks, bill etc. Very well priced restaurant as well given the high quality of food. Definitely recommended.

Had a lovely evening at the Aubrey Arms. We had great service and lovely meals. The choices were plenty and excellent presentation. Prices were very competitive and well worth what we had. I think soft drinks are a bit expensive but that is the same in most places you go today, especially in restaurants. This place is well worth a visit. Great staff and great service. Always best to book a table first.

Had fab time, company was great, food fab. Only complaint was you can no longer have curry with half chips and half rice because the meal comes with a small nann bread. What a stupid decision.

Might be part of a branded group but it's still a lovely cosy dining pub, standard pub grub but done well. 👌🏼

Had a lovely meal at the Aubrey Arms on Friday night with some friends. From the welcome to the food it was perfect. Very friendly staff, food was delicious, steak cooked to perfection and I’m fussy! All round an excellent evening. Would highly recommend.
