Great little gem, yeh bit old but it's a little pub in a very little village more people should use these place's so they can keep going. Don't be put off by negative reviews
Just popped in on the off-chance as we heard the hours are hit and miss. They let us in the bar area with our two dogs. No food unfortunately. The drinks were priced reasonably. The locals were friendly as were the bar staff. Would use again as only one in the village. Shame about food though
Dour, depressing, unwelcoming and filthy. Called in here during a pleasant walk that took us through the beautiful village of New Abbey. On entering the pub, you're met with a sign saying No food, No children, No dogs (inside or outside). Inside, it's like stepping through a wormhole into the 1950's which would be nice but the place is filthy, the glasses were disgusting and the beer and lager were vile. It's a rare occurrence to come across a place as bad as this, but it seems like the owners have given up and the place is dying a slow death. This could be a fantastic little gold mine and a real community hub, as it is currently, just don't waste your time and effort.
We stumbled upon this place after being gravely disappointed with an air bnb booking nearby and we’re so glad we did. Jerry and his team were so welcoming and accommodating to our needs and we had a fantastic time. We enjoyed our chat with the locals in the bar who were also so friendly and helpful advising us on where to visit in the local area (which is very beautiful and with an interesting history). We can’t thank the owner and staff enough and will definitely be back to stay in future to explore the area further and enjoy the hospitality. Thank you for rescuing a well-planned surprise 60th Birthday celebration from potential disaster and making some great memories for us all. Lee and Tanya
Absolutely loved our stay here at the Abbey Arms Hotel. We were made to feel really welcome. We'd booked accommodation in the area and were badly let down once we'd arrived after travelling for 6 hours, this hotel literally saved us and gave us two perfect rooms for the night. Just minutes away from sweetheart abbey. Our tea was lovely and very good value for money, breakfast was 10/10. Thank you x
