AUTUMN COVID UPDATE - PLEASE CLICK FOR DETAILS
The Covid-19 crisis is elsewhere and in our opinion the strategy to deal with it is now fundamentally wrong. Part of that devastatingly bad strategy is the threat to shut our entire sector down at a moment’s notice (without remotely proportionate compensation to cover the cost of closure).
To manage this risk, we shall be moving to a weekend only business with immediate effect.
Friday – Midday – 10pm (Food midday – 8pm)
Saturday – Midday – 10pm (Food midday – 8pm)
Sunday – Midday – 6pm (Food midday – 4:30)
Saturday brunch is paused, slated for return in the Spring.
We have a great Friday & Saturday Lunchtime Offer for October & November
2 for 1 main course with the cheaper main course FREE will be on offer Fridays & Saturdays – Midday – 4pm.
The lounge, restaurant & terrace will all be open with fires on in all three all day.
Book to ensure your favourite table!
Take care y’all.

OUR STORY
The battle between Richard III and his challenger and victor – Henry Tudor, was one of the most important in English history, effectively ending the Wars of the Roses. It also heralded the end of the Middle Ages and began the Tudor period.
Richard III, buried in Leicester Cathedral, is the only English royal buried outside of Westminster or Windsor. Historians now believe Richard III rested his army at the bottom of the hill we sit on the foothills of. Our name, The Lancaster Arms and the new brand with Richard’s boar, honours both sides. In that same spirit of friendship, we look forward to seeing you and to quote once more William Shakespeare:
Let us ‘drink to the joy of the whole table’
COFFEE.BEER.
WINE.GIN.
There is a fine choice of draught beer, cider & lager with regular guest ales.
The Lancaster Arms international wine list has been created to compliment our menu. Our fine wine list is competitively priced encouraging guests to explore the glories of fine food & wine pairings.
Did we mention we have a great gin bar where guests can watch their glasses being frosted.
We also have great tea.

“Practically Perfect..”
*****
“Wonderful”
Not only were the management and staff incredibly welcoming but the atmosphere was superb. A real homely yet pub like feeling, the perfect blend. The food that accompanied this was delicious, I’d go back just to try everything.
We will definitely return with empty bellies to fill!!
*****
“Everything was cooked perfectly”
The roasts also came with Yorkshire puddings, roasted garlic & stuffing. Everything was cooked perfectly and super tasty.
The service was just right- really friendly and helpful without being intrusive.”
