De Havilland Arms

Great atmosphere, warm and Christmas decorations up, a great place for a Sunday roast.
They were out of Turkey unfortunately, but it was the first weekend in December and busy.
We were actually running a bit late for our booking so rang and they moved it back 15 minutes which was nice of them.
The waitresses and bar staff are really helpful.

Larger parties are always a nightmare for restaurants, but not here. Everything was taken in their stride, and we had a wonderful birthday celebration. Credit is not always given when earned, but Chloe deserves recognition of her excellent customer service. She interacted with our group with a happy smile on her face, she was always cheery, and nothing was ever too much, which is very rare in customer service these days. The food was served hot and all our choices were enjoyed, the chefs deserve a shout out too.Sunday Roasts can be a big hit and miss, but we thoroughly enjoyed ours, especially the endless supply of gravy and Yorkshire puddings. I have been in the industry for more years than I would like to say, I want to add Chloe is an absolute asset to your company. Thank you Chloe, the kitchen brigade and all the staff involved for making our visit an enjoyable one!

We booked for 30 people for my Dad's birthday. Our experience at the De Haviland was really good - as always. The seating was setup so we could all sit together, food served promptly, really good menu - pre ordering was easy

I always enjoy eating here. Service was a bit slower than usual but it was busy. Staff were lovely, as always, and the food was great.

Second visit in the last few months, both times excellent - always enjoyable good food, and great service too so happy to put another commendation comment in. So nice to have a really nice place to eat that is nearby.

Had lunch here it's a lovely place with lovely food. It has plenty of parking and I will definitely re visit.

Visited on a Sunday evening, had a beautiful roast, food was excellent, service very attentive, overall we had a lovely time. Hopefully, I'll see you all soon.

Visited for a late lunch on a Friday. The club sandwich was a good choice and the soup was fresh and tasty. Service was excellent.

You pub brilliant use your venue twice and always there for food and sausage for theo my dog

Had a bad meal here before but visiting again i am sure this was a one off and a consequence of being busy with the rugby. In Fairness, the management sorted this issue and apologised. My second time visiting here was great, the roast was cooked to perfection and staff were very attentive. Having a restaurant that puts things right is invaluable and I hope to come again!

The team were very efficient and got everything we asked for including allowing us to change tables and getting an ice pack for my very painful trapped nerves in my neck. I was very impressed with that.

Lovely country feel pub, with fantastic food and generous portions.
Staff are really friendly and efficient.
We will definitely be returning 👍

Perfect afternoon outside in the sun! Amazing food and great service, lucky to have this as our local!

Nice pub in the heart of Elvertham Heath. Lovely interesting decor inside with lots of knooks and crannies and a great range of ales, beers, ciders and everything else you want in a pub.

Staff were very friendly and attentive...

Myself and my partner recently had what we both described as the best pub roast we’d had in a very long time! The food is always incredible, staff are all lovely and very welcoming, there’s always a great atmosphere.

Books table on a Friday evening asked for a quiet one on booking. Was met by friendly restaurant manager and shown to a quiet area. Being a bit of a pie connoisseur I ordered the pie which was excellent. My wife had vegetarian pasta which was also good. Can't fault the service from a young girl who was duly tipped at the end. Will be definitely coming back.

Really great place. Stayed at the Four Seasons but the food was significantly better here! Good vegan options, staff very friendly. My son has autism and they were very accommodating. The chocolate and orange torte was particularly impressive.

The pub atmosphere is incredibly cozy, and the staff went above and beyond to make us comfortable and make us laugh. They were very friendly and welcoming, and the food was delicious. Would recommend!

Mens toilets smelled disgusting. I appreciate you use a waterless system but many places use this but I could not stay in there and chose to go home and use mine rather than stay for another drink after dinner.
My girlfriend told me that in the ladies toilet there was no toilet roll. Shame, service and food were excellent.

Visited today at lunchtime following my usual Sunday lunch pub was fully booked and I was quite honestly overwhelmed with how this pubs food and service has improved since my last review I left 4 years ago!
I booked the table over the telephone with George who was friendly and helpful and was knowledgeable about a couple of food queries that I had.
Upon arrival the beers were served upon quickly and with a welcoming smile. Just fyi, almost £6 a pint.
Was seated by Gorge the guy I had booked with and was surprised he had remembered the food I had discussed with him earlier.
I had the aged beef roast which came with unlimited Yorkshire puddings at £14.95
The food that was served was lovely and plentiful and for me quite honestly one of the best roasts I have had!
My girlfriend who had had the steak and ale pie, also at £14.95 said that hers was lovely too.
Brilliant news that this place has improved its food offering over the years as its quite local to me and I will certainly be eating here more in the future!

Lovely flavoursome roast, very yummy Yorkshires & cauliflower cheese.
Attentive staff & Good value for money.
Highly Recommended. 👍🏻

To add, went there again yesterday, different staff, Just as friendly & attentive.
Nothing to much trouble & all served with a smile.
Food, again was Lovely, Tasty & Well presented.

Cracking Job Peeps 👏 👍🏻
