A great local village pub with seasonal menus,excellent ales and the most gorgeous garden in Berkshire !!
Situated in the pretty village of Holyport, set back from the green and overlooking the pond, The Belgian Arms is a favourite with locals and visitors to the area alike.
We offer really tasty British food that’s beautifully cooked, a great selection of wines and a really good pint.
The atmosphere is warm and friendly and no one is standing on ceremony. The Belgian Arms is the ideal spot for meeting up with family and friends, an informal business lunch or dinner and simply having fun.

We were there on Burns night so it may have been busier than a normal Thursday. The staff and food were great. It's probably more a restaurant than a pub these days and the food was more expensive than our usual Thursday place although it was judged better too. They were also happy for us to bring our own birthday cake. There's a big garden by the pond for the summer when it arrives
Went for Xmas lunch and was impressed; vibrant and delicious food combined with friendly and efficient service made for a very pleasant 2 hours. Will return for sure. Well done Belgian Arms!
Food was incredible.....but there were some let downs. I personally don't like it when you have to order side dishes to makes up the veg in your plate. It annoys me as you never know this until the plate arrives. I did ask what was the portion size like, I was told it was pretty large. I do agree with that statement but the only veg was 3 asparagus spears which makes it all feel very unhealthy and at that price point, I do expect a reasonable away of veg, or it to be abundantly clear you will need other veg. As much as the argument may well be that I did get what was on the menu, rarely does anyone list all plated items so rarely do you know the veg coming so that was disappointing. We were also sat in a table where we had to ask to get past people everytime we wanted to get up for anything. The waitress had to do this the most, but it just felt awkward and uncomfortable. I'm fine with that if in for a drink in a packed place and, but not when eating a meal. It felt far nicer when that table was clear but it rarely was clear Also no music at all.....some background music would have been nice. But the food we ate was lovely. Please could you make it clearer that side veg is required or just please add a few more veg to the main, and maybe make sure that table that blocks the table you put us on only has 2 seats there.....if we were over weight I think it would have been really embarrassing as we really had to squeeze by and that was uncomfortable enough....
Top pub. Staff with personality. There's something on the menu for everyone, from seasonal dishes to pub classics, and a great wine list. I had a delicious confit duck salad.
Had wonderful Sunday roast. Great service and ambience. Portions were good, and the food was tasty. Special mention for me was the scotch egg and the pork crackling. It was excellent. Would love to visit more often.
