Pub now shut for good and soon to be a dentist,its gone from a place to get your teeth knocked out to one that now pulls them! RIP fleetwood arms,a sad end to a old friend to so many.

Well what can i say,this has gone down hill big time.As others have reported the new decor has done nothing to help matters.I visited on a saturday and the beer as bad as the paint job.I was the cellarman when ben unsworth was in charge, how things have changed for the worse.This bar won many awards for the beer and had a great following of people,but i fail to see how you can keep beer perfect when open only three days a week.This bar was allways full over the weekend and a good crowd every night.This is no fault of the long standing staff,but yet another one of the councils master plans for improvement.I would say the only way forward is to put it out to tender and hope for the best.How the mighty fall.

Was sold a year or so ago,and has had a slow painfull death.Its been shut for a while now and will end up as flats i would expect.Bill the former owner now has a new place in moville co.donegal.Shame, but another one bites the dust

This pub was the best in fleetwood till our long standing landlady felt it was time to move on.The new person didnt last long and the pub seam to open as and when he pleased.Then another new opperator took it on,they lasted only a few months.At present the pub it shut,but there may be hope on the horizon in the form of our long standing landlady and or son.Lets hope theres a come back on the cards,i would hate to think it gets knocked down and flats built. Long live the arms stuart
