Awful restaurant,very bossy Manager who would not let us have a drink at the bar before our meal,insisted that we sat at a table! Ordered stuffed mushrooms it arrived with 2 mushrooms closed cup mushrooms at that so hardly big,another of our party had poached pears and prosuitto salad to start and it took all of 2 mouthfulls to eat,pears were tinned! Soup was cold,and mains decidedly average.Desserts were slightly better,cheesecake with summer berries had half a strawberry as the 'berries' misleading to say the least,wont be wasting my money there again

We have been to Armytages several times in the last few months. The food is fairly basic but very nice and not too expensive. They offer an extensive menu including 3 sorts of steak, Ribeye, Sirloin and Rump with various additions. They have an extensive choice of other items such as scampi, chicken, prawns and Tipsy Pie. The sweets are also a treat especially the Fudge Mountain. You need to get there early on a Weekend to get a table as they fill up fast and there can be up to an hours wait for food due to the popularity of the placeWe have been to Armytages several times in the last few months.

A big sprawling location, situated away from the hustle and bustle of a town, but close enough to the M62 motorway to make this an ideal meeting point.
A good selection of drinks available, draught lagers and beers as well as the wine list and bottled drinks too.
meals are of good quality, not too expensive. Portions are of a nice size, you are not over faced.
There is plenty of room to sit inside, for both drinkers and diners alike.
A big car park means there is no lack of parking spaces. There is also a great outdoor drinking seating area, ideal for when the sun is out.
Service here is friendly and polite. The decor is traditional, as befitting the building.
The toilets were spotlessly clean and tidy.

I found this place on Google whilst skiving a few minutes at work and decided to take my partner & 2 year old daughter out for a meal when I got home.

The building started out life in the 1700's as a farm and bacame a coaching house around the middle of the centuary (according to their website). With 250 years of experience I was expecting a good meal in a nice, friendly restaurant.

I was not disappointed.

A clean, nicely decorated and spacious interior welcomed us. Our host quickly brought over a highchair for my daughter and a drawing toy, a bit like the etch-a-scetch we all used to have, for her to play with.

The menu looked delicious too. 'Old Favourites' such as fish and chips or bangers and mash sit nicely alongside steaks, 'Sizzler Platters' and salads. I felt spoiled for choice and just had to bite the bullet and pick something when the waiter came around for the second time!

A lot of the menu options are also available in smaller potions, at discounted rates for children and pensioners too. Much better I think than having a seperate kids menu with unhealthy microwave options just to keep the kids quiet and the parents happy!

There are three real ales on offer (however the one that I wanted wasn't on when I visited) and an extensive wine list.
They also have regular events with quiz nights, psychic nights and a Mexican night once a month.

Overall it was a very enjoyable experience and I'll be sure to visit again.I found this place on Google whilst skiving a few minutes at work and decided to take my partner & 2 year old daughter out for a meal when I got home.
