| Fantastic venue situated just by the railway station but in fact also a fine place to stop off while having a walk in the area. The first thing I notice about this pub is the large area and the second thing I notice is that it sells Greene King ales. Good for a stop-off in the garden area while sipping a cold drink and a snack - I would recommend this area for that indeed. I cannot comment on the food but eventually found the toilet areas and they were of a decent standard. BestBeerBoffin - 14 Jun 2009 20:17 |
| I recently (mid April, Friday evening) went to the Percy Arms for a meal with my wife, children (7 and 5) and father. I was a little apprehensive, as there are very mixed reviews about it, including price and service. We had a great time. I had a 12oz fillet steak (not often you get to chose the size of a steak) with Monkey Gland sauce, my wife and dad had steaks, my daughter had sausages and my son had the biggest plate of ribs in the world. Yes, it was a bit expensive (£136 inc a bottle of wine), but it was worth it. The service was attentive, the wine excellent, the food spot-on and the general ambience very good indeed. As for the previous review by "Kath"... Is this a real review, or simply a shallow attempt at a rebuttal of the previous review from an older gent with his friends? It looks for all the world like a member of staff hacking out a false review. My apologies if it's genuine. onslowresident - 6 May 2009 09:07 |
| As a couple we tend to go to places that i enjoy the most ideally fish places, but i have to say i was very pleasently suprised with this pub. i was very nice to find a pub that does what it says on the internet. we had starters and main with drinks, yes the staff are young but that doesnt matter when they listen to their customers even when i changed my mind on what i wanted to eat.. the starter were delightful i had the italian salad and hubby had the garlic bread which looked lovely and fresh. we both had a talor made steaks were totally lovely hubby had a sirloin 12oz steak cooked rare to medium and i had a rump 8oz steak cooked blue. to my surprise i didnt have to send my steak back which i normally have to do and thr rump cut and ate like butter. to my suprise it wasnt nearly expensive as i thought it was going to be.. if you want a pub that sells good food for a good price then this is the pub for you... highly recomended we will be there again soon... katheaven1 - 25 Jan 2009 18:50 |
| Well I have been to the Percy Arms in Chilworth today and as promised, I am reporting back. I had an excellent ½ of Hardys & Hansons’s ‘Rocking Rudolph’ and may give it a 4 on ‘beerscoring’. I, along with some of my walking friends, had a sandwich with a choice of soup or chips for £5.95. I chose the option with soup and some of the others chose chips. On the menu it mentioned that the sandwich I had was ham with mustard. There was ham but I couldn’t taste much mustard. As far as the soup was concerned it was, at best, lukewarm. The staff is young (including kitchen staff) not that it means anything, but because my soup was almost cold I thought they probably can’t use anything but microwaves. One of the lads at the bar was patronising to a couple of my fellow walkers who were older and had difficulty with their hearing. The pub itself was ok, though it would have been better if the heating had been switched on a bit earlier. The temperature was around -2C all day outside, and we were looking for some kind of warmth indoors. My soup was almost cold and the radiators were getting warm when it was time for us to leave. All in all, I may go back to give them another chance but only if I’m in that area again, I wouldn’t go out of my way to get there. I give it a score of 5 and that’s mostly for ‘Rocking Rudolph’! petronille - 10 Jan 2009 22:09 |
| Oh dear... my local walking group has organised a walk in that area with the lunch stop at the Percy... I'll report back next week. petronille - 8 Jan 2009 14:15 |
