    So we stopped here for a wee and ended up having one of their fine drinks selection and food. The lamb was orgasmic and we sent back an entre which they replaced promptly by the peri wing. The whole thing was executed beautifully down to the lemon in the water and the lave-main. You feel welcome here and I simply recommend

    This pub was a great spot. I’ve recently been doing the city stack, and it’s great to see the independent pubs are still alive. They need your support, the Waverley Arms had great service, the food was awesome (Wednesday steak special was on point) and the beers were great. Get down and support the independent pubs before they’re all gone!

    We held my mums wake here on 21/11/24 in a private area. I can't thank the pub enough for their service and ensuring everyone had drinks at all times. We ordered a simple buffet of a selection of sandwiches and chips, which were plentiful and tasty. It's a nice traditional pub and I would be happy if it were my local.
