Upon entering the restaurant you were confident of a delightful experience. The reception was friendly and the decor incredibly tasteful. The menu was enticing and displayed dishes for any taste.
A small pot of parsnip soup with crispy Parma ham was served as a tempting opening to the meal.
My starter of blue cheese souffle with pears and walnuts was stunning, followed by the steak and ale pie, homemade chips and mushy peas. The presentation was exquisite and the taste outstanding.
I finished my meal with a sponge pudding with custard and a scoop of home made ginger ice cream.
The entire meal was outstanding and I would definitely recommend the Aldwark Arms.

The Arrms has been open for about 16 months in what used to be a dreadful old pub called the Bay Horse. It has been completely refurbished and now serves locally sourced food of complexity and great taste either as bar meals or in a restaurant annexe, and now on a patio overlooking lovely countryside. the young Chef-proprietor Chris Hill offers brilliant food, wine and real ale. Definitely worth a detour.
