Cons:

  • "The guy giving the food out is so rude with me each time I refuse any meat, he seems to get in a huff with me."
  • "I was told a few times that someone would be here soon and we waited patiently. When the chef finally came after at least 10 minutes I asked could I have the turkey and he told me in a very abrupt and rude manner that I was stood in the wrong place."
  • "Services was appalling, one person serving, with loads waiting."

  • "For starters, there were flies all over the condiments and gravy which was absolutely disgraceful and unhygienic."
  • "The food was awful. The meats were tasteless, the vegetables went to watery slush and the roast potatoes where over done with hardly any potato left inside."
  • "Terrible food looked like it was there all day and some of it was cold."
  • "Roast potatoes like bricks cauliflower like tree trunks and the food not that warm."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "For breakfast I would rate 2 stars but for dinner or parties the service and food is the best value for money."
  • "I ordered a regular carvery, Pepsi and a double pepperoni pizza all for less £12."
  • "The Farmers arms at Whitestake nr New Longton is definitely worth a visit if you are hungry, they do a carvery for about £8.00 and you can keep topping your plate up until you are stuffed and it's well tasty."
  • "Price competitive. Portions size very good. Selection good."
  • "Good food and as much as you can eat for just over £5 great value."
  • "Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great food and at great prices."
  • "Good carvery with loads of options, honestly astounding good value."

Cons:

  • "A standard carvery is £11.79 which is £4.0 more than any other day of the week."
  • "Poor value for the amount the carvery costs especially on a Sunday."
  • "Prices on carvery are decent but little else on offer besides pizza - prices are more than you pay at a Whetherspoons."
  • "For nearly 12.00 per carvery it was awful."
  • "Wasn't impressed at all not even 2 slices of meat had to fill up on veggis so was not worth the near £12 paid for just to eat veg."
  • "Breakfast is absolutely shocking. Undercooked bacon. Snotty eggs. Cheap watered beans. Frozen bread."
  • "No refill coffee unless you paid for premium single cup."
