This is for the planners and the spontaneous… 🥩😂

Some people like to know exactly what they’re having before they even leave the house. Others prefer to see what catches their eye on the day. Here at The Whitmore Arms, we like to cater for both. 😉

That’s why we’re sharing our menu for those who like to plan ahead. But don’t be too surprised if all your plans go out the window when you see our specials board! 😆😂

Take this plate for example... our rib-eye steak, served with crispy onion rings, chunky chips, and peppercorn sauce. A special that’s been turning heads and emptying plates! 😋🙌👏

Our specials change regularly, giving our returning customers the chance to try something a little different alongside all the favourites on our main menu.

So whether you’re a planner or someone who loves a surprise, we’ve got you covered. 🍽️🥰

Father's Day is just around the corner, and our tables are filling up quickly! 👨‍👧‍👦🍽️

If you're planning to treat Dad to a proper Sunday roast with all the trimmings, we'd recommend booking sooner rather than later, as we now have only a few tables left. 🫣

Great food, good company and no washing up… sounds like a pretty good Father's Day to us! 😉

Whether it's our homemade mushroom soup served with crusty bread or our chef's pâté of the day, we believe in doing the classics properly. 😁

Fresh ingredients, cooked from scratch and made with the same care as every dish that leaves our kitchen. 👏

If you're looking for a quick lunch, these are a great place to start, too. Ditch the packed lunch for a day and treat yourself instead. You deserve it! 😄😂🤣

We're open for food from 12pm, seven days a week, so whether it's a leisurely lunch or a bite to eat with friends, we'll be ready to welcome you. 🍄🥣🧀

Right then... please settle an argument for us! 🤷‍♀️😂

If you were treating yourself to just one dessert in our restaurant, which one are you choosing? 🤔💭

🍫 Chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream

🍰 Cheesecake with pouring cream

We see both of these leave the kitchen regularly, and honestly, we couldn't tell you which is more popular! 🤯

A huge thank you to Stephen for taking the time to leave us such a lovely Google review following his recent visit to The Whitmore Arms. 👏🙏

Not only did he leave some kind words, but he also shared a fantastic photo of his ploughman's lunch, which we're proud to show off! 😍

As a family-run restaurant, we take feedback like this to heart. It helps other people discover us, gives new customers confidence to visit, and lets our team know that all their hard work is appreciated. 🫶

Stephen mentioned our friendly service, relaxed atmosphere and, of course, the food... exactly the experience we aim to create for every guest who walks through our doors. 😁

A lovely customer, Sue, recently checked in here at The Whitmore Arms on Facebook and even shared photos of her Sunday roast and spotted dick sponge pudding. 😍

Whenever people take the time to leave feedback, check in, share photos or recommend us to others, we genuinely appreciate it more than you probably realise. 🙏😊

For family-run restaurants like ours, word of mouth and social media shares make such a difference. It helps new customers discover us, gives people confidence to come try our food, and keeps the restaurant busy and buzzing... exactly how we love it! 💯🥳

We can’t thank Sue enough for helping spread the word about our Sunday roasts and desserts. Little gestures like this really do go a long way. 💙
