PUBLIC
NOTICE.
We simply cannot square the circle of government advice on social distancing with our duty of care to team members, guests and wider society with continuing to open the doors right now.
Accordingly (and with no judgement on others who may take a different view) we have taken the extraordinarily hard decision to close the pub and restaurant until further notice.
Pubs are part of the fabric of our society and we want to be back as soon as possible. The Lancaster Arms is working with Everards and government agencies on a plan so we can reopen responsibly at the earliest opportunity.
In the meantime, our immediate priority is to support our amazing but deeply worried team in any way we can to access the new sectoral support schemes which are being worked on.
Once we have clarity on that, we need to figure how we feed ourselves and then we’ll look to see what role we can play in our community to make this challenging time more bearable for all of us.
More news when we have it.
Peace & love everyone – stay safe.
The Lancaster Arms
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’
FRESH INGREDIENTS.

“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.”
