About Trafalgar Arms

Traditional pub offering offering classic pub food, plus live sports & function space.

Former Enterprise pub reopened by Young's as a Geronimo Inn on 17 August 2015.

The pub had closed in July 2013 and was awaiting a planning application for conversion to residential use before it was bought by Young's and extensively refurbished.

The building is listed for its impressive art deco frontage but the inside of the pub has been greatly changed over the years and has been comprehensively remodelled by Young's in its latest makeover.

The interior is made up of three large downstairs rooms with interesting fireplaces in the dividing walls and a cozy upstairs function room. The bar is at the rear of the central room making it a magnificent centrepiece when you enter the pub.

The building is set back from the main road with the spacious front forecourt featuring a covered seating area and several tables with parasols.

The main entrance leads to the bar area with the restaurant to the left where the tables are laid out for dining and the bar to the right with tables which are for drinkers or diners. A separate room at the rear has seating for up to 14 people and has its own private terrace. Other rooms of varying capacity on the first floor are available for private hire.

Styled Hardy's at the Trafalgar Arms from 2001 to 2005.

    Lovely pub with quirky events, a friendly team, a cosy inside & a cool vibey beer garden. I had a delicious vegan Sunday roast yesterday & will definitely be going back for another one! I also remember them making the best mulled wine I’ve ever had last year😍

    I really love this pub but I had a really disappointing roast this Sunday. Friends have previously said the roast was nice but sadly I didn't have the same experience this time. I didn't complain as it was Euros day so I understand I didn't give them chance to rectify anything which is my fault. However, there was barely any veggies I had one carrot and some cabbage (which was really tasty) but my Yorkshire looked like it had been sat on and the pork belly was very average. For a £19 roast I would expect a lot more. Normally Young's roast are great but sadly this one did not meet the same…

    Very nice pub, comfortable inside and nice large outdoor space. Bar staff are friendly and always have been knowledgeable when it comes to cocktails off the menu, and the cocktails have been very good. The food I have had was nice but not much of it. Did have to leave once when the rugby was playing in my ear but is usually a very chilled place.

    We had our Christmas party at The Trafalgar Arms and hired the Wine Room, which was a charming and cozy space that suited our group perfectly. It was a lovely touch to have our names on place cards with our selected menu. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel very welcome. While the food was just okay and could have been better, we still enjoyed the overall experience and atmosphere of the venue.
