It lifted the day.

“Ant and Hannah made us feel most welcome with their friendly chat, cracking beer and wonderful bar food. We were happily satisfied and will definitely return. Great views too, if the weather had been more kind.”

We had researched the area as we will be staying in Pembroke next March.

“I called in to the Watermans Arms and received a very friendly welcome. We chose a table and were brought our drinks and menus. We ordered a steak meal and cod and chips, both of which were of excellent quality, superb flavours and perfectly cooked.

“After our meal we sat outside on the balcony watching the swans in the sunshine. An excellent couple of hours during lunch time and we will certainly be returning in March.”

We have been travelling to the UK for over four weeks and it was the best we had since we arrived.

“We highly recommend the Southern Fried Chicken and returned for more the following evening too! The Waterman’s Arms is not only well priced but also sits on the Mill Pond with castle and pond views making it scenic and extremely inviting.”
