We only stopped here for a drink before going off to eat elsewhere but we have no complaints. The table was cleaned, a cushion was given for one of our chairs that was missing one. Our drinks were all great. The gins were served in lovely glasses with fruit and a cardboard straw and the men were very happy with their lager and Guinness. We'll done Bakers Arms!

Did not have a booking for lunch but managed to get a table for four. Staff were friendly and courteous, service was excellent and so was the food. Was well planned out for social distancing, clean and tidy.
