We found this pub on Google as we were travelling to the area for a special occasion and it looked good.
When we got to the pub, we were pleasantly surprised of the beautiful country location and the welcome we received.
Two of us are vegan and were extremely impressed with the vegan menu (not just one option!), but when the meals came out we were delighted, they were fantastic - taste and presention! Excellent chef!! We had the most fantastic experience and it made the birthday family get together even better.
We are already planning our return visit as we really really enjoyed it.
Well done to the chef, the team and the owner, great place!
The only disappointment is that we didn't discover this beautiful pub years ago.
Great place to eat. Service is excellent, the food is consistently very good. Love the lite bite lunch menu. Prices are competitive and I believe fair. Busy and bustling but not in a detrimental way. I like it very much
Amazing Sunday lunch! One of the best I've had out and about. Service was also great. I loved the location also, although the lanes coming back out very full was a bit discomforting! I definitely over ordered but it was all amazing food.
We went here for Sunday afternoon drinks, a lovely venue, and a beautiful location. Didn't eat today but the food looked delicious. We will be returning and have booked a Sunday lunch.
Now we have been for Sunday lunch, trust me you will not be disappointed. The food quality is very good, the portions are superb, the choices will leave wondering did I pick the best. In a nutshell you will not be going home hungry.
Reserved table for lunch following recommendation. Good job we did as the place was rammed and the atmosphere was buzzing.
Speedy service with a genuine smile.
Menu was a big surprise - so much choice!
Better still, as a coeliac, I am used to being reduced to either jacket potatoes or salad. Not here.
More than half the menu was gluten free, and I enjoyed a fabulous battered fish and chips. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed that food.
Prices reasonable and portions large.
Will definitely return.
Highly recommended.
Stayed for two nights whilst down from Scotland as competing local to here. Very accommodating as we were late for our booking but table was held and service was great. We managed breakfast first morning (great breakfast)but due to leaving so early the second morning, we could pick from the menu and the front of house provided a packed lunch for the road home as we were up and away before the kitchen would be open. Try the steak pie, it’s a good steak pie.
We stayed here on mother's Day. The pub was extremely busy as you would have expected. But the service was excellent, smiling attentive staff, fabulous Sunday roast. It's great to watch a busy pub/ restaurant in full swing when everyone knows what they are doing and customer service is top of their list.
We stayed the night in well proportioned rooms that had just been refurbished. Very quiet, warm and comfortable beds. What more could you want.
Breakfast was excellent. A great stop on the way up to Northumberland from the south.
A glowing review for The Staunton Arms and everyone working there. We booked based on its convenient location just off the A1, a good stopping off point for a journey north. Bed and breakfast, plus dinner. The welcome was really friendly and efficient. The dinner was superb - we had the pie and it was so good, along with nice wine and good beer. Again, all staff were really friendly and the service was impeccable. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable, really quiet. Breakfast was amazing! Thanks to everyone there. I thoroughly recommend The Staunton Arms and I’m sure we’ll be back.
We stayed here for our friends birthday recently. We cannot fault anything. The food was superb as were the staff who were exemplary. The room was lovely and really well maintained. The whole experience was wonderful and we would highly recommend the Staunton Arms to anyone wanting to eat or stay here.
We has Sunday lunch yesterday and couldn't fault it. Delicious food lovely surroundings and service perfect. Lovely staff.

Me and my husband had a table booked for 7pm on greeting staff were very welcoming and the atmosphere was cozy maybe a bit noisy for us but we were sat next to a Christmas table so it’s to be expected! The meal
Came out in no time and was very nice would recommend for sure
Went for Sunday lunch only as live in the locality. Food was excellent as was the service and timings. Would definitely recommend.
Stayed here 2 nights last week travelling from North Wales for a wedding at nearby Langar Hall. Room spacious, clean and comfortable with a large en suite bathroom. We were opposite the kitchen in the Elston room and were fore warned about a possibility of kitchen noise and found it not to be any problem in our circumstances as we wanted to up handy and were late to retire. The only thing missing, maybe a net curtain at the ground floor window as when dressing, kitchen members passed by which surprised us as it was open fields beyond the hedge. 🤣 We enjoyed dining in on our 1st night and thoroughly enjoyed the enormous steak and ale pie. Staff all very friendly and accommodating. Breakfasts delicious too. Staff went above and beyond on the day of the wedding as we were let down by taxi's and a Staff member personally drove the 4 of us in her own car 'saving the day'. We thank you again and we will definitely be back to enjoy some more fabulous hospitality.

Stayed here for 1 night on our way back home. Our room was way bigger then expected and was very comfortable (especially the bed!). We had dinner down at the restaurant. Food was good, servers were kind. Also had breakfast before we left in the morning. Because you have to order the breakfast it took a little longer then expected, but they were pretty fast. All in all a very nice place to stay!
Enjoyed a Sunday lunch with family. Roast beef was tender and tasty.
Brilliant service and pretty darn good grub. Would definitely go back and will be going back. 😀
