We had booked a table for our family of four. Arrived and drinks were purchased within a reasonable time frame. Shown to our seats and when we tried to approach the carvery, we were abruptly told that there were take away meals which had to be priority. So we sat back down again and waited 20 minutes until we thought we had been beckoned to come for food, however, another table had just been seated next to us and at the carvery table we were told they were first. When we raised this as a problem, they finally allowed our family to get their food. Whilst sat waiting and during the entirety of our meal, we noticed the various staff keep pulling bits of meat off the carvery to eat. Dreadful and disgusting as no one wore gloves. Eventually there seemed to be a big plate of meat piled at the back for the staff to continually pick at. The chap putting together the various take away meals in cartons was dressed inappropriately, kept removing sweat from his non-gloved hands from his face, and then continuing to serve the food into the cartons, some by hand e.g. Yorkshire puddings. Would never order take away from this place! The food itself was a bit overpriced though not too bad. Some was overcooked, the roast potatoes were hard and some items were not available due to them being all given to the take away cartons. Overall we would never return due to the poor standard of hygiene and service.

Great pies on Tuesdays. Good beer and cider selection. Has a nice outdoor space as well with some toys for kids. Watched a women's world cup game here as well.

Sunday roast here is second to none. Absolutely the best lunch ever. Brilliant home cooked, quality food. Choose from Beef, Turkey, Pork (the best Crackling) and Ham. The most enormous variety of excellently cooked vegetables, perfect roast potatoes, yorkshires and gravy. Have not found a better roast anywhere. You will not go home hungry. Lovely friendly staff, who all want to please their customers. Can't rate the Carlton Arms any higher.

Fantastic, honest pub. Staff are lovely, food is delicious, particularly the carvery. Overall spotlessly clean facilities. Great old school pub.

Hands down the best full English breakfast in town! Massive if you get the large. The fried bread is a great touch.

Went for a Sunday Cavalry, had to wait one hour before we could eat, luckily food was still warm, staff seemed miserable and stressed, making their unhappiness visible and vocal.Two ladies besides us complained and the feedback from the staff was unpleasant, no communication for why we had to wait for so long.
