Derby Arms Rainford

I have been going to The Derby Arms for years on and off since I was,18. The last time I sat in the room primarily used for diners I was with my family so it was a little emotional for me. The decor has changed but not the bricks and mortar. I don 't consider myself to be 'local ' anymore hence I could detect that the busy bar had a local edge to it. Not unfriendly, but the feeling that everyone knows everyone else. This is not necessarily a bad thing and everyone is kind and thoughtful which reflects the community itself. Over the years the food in the pub has gone from mediocre to outstanding depending on the chef in the kitchen. I know my mother would comment critically sometimes. However...

I 'd forgotten how delicious the food is here at the Derby Arms, as we haven 't visited since the first lockdown. Three of us went last night, we all had different meals, each of us thoroughly enjoyed our food, in fact we didn 't want the meals to end! The portions were very generous, the food is all freshly prepared and of a very high quality. The service we received was pleasant and efficient, with the feeling that everyone was glad to be getting back to 'normal ', and to have customers back at this lovely friendly pub. We will continue to be regular customers.

Visited over Christmas period and was a little disappointed after reading the excellent reviews. Cosy pub nice atmosphere but the food was nothing special, over generous in portions and not cheap £12 for a roast dinner. May try again but nowhere near the great value and tasty food at the Hopvine. Covid safe. Reserva una mesa ahora

The restaurant was too cold, so we had to switch tables along with others. The food was just okay, one dish was overcooked and the salad was disappointing - just a few pieces of lettuce and tomato for £15, really? Considering the price, there are better dining options in Rainford.

I have visited this restaurant several times, and you can tell the food is homemade when it doesn't come out in 10 minutes! The servings were generous and tasty, and the service was excellent. Great job to the team, I will definitely be coming back soon.

Never let down by the quality of food, service and atmosphere in this still traditional pub. Menu full of tempting specials. Glad to see local resourced meats, fresh vegetables and wait for it .... Real chips.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We always come back because it is dog-friendly, and we highly recommend visiting. Our three dogs also loved it! Reserva una mesa ahora
