The pub was refreshingly empty for 15.45 on a Friday. There was 1 barmaid taking an order for 2 burgers and cokes and another chatting outside in clear sight of the bar. I waited 10 minutes to be served and when the 2 guys queuing behind me popped to the loo, I checked with my mate outside, whether we still had time for a drink. We had till 16.30, so I returned to the bar and so did the guys from the WC. After a couple of minutes the barmaid turned, said sorry, then when outside to get the other staff member. She finished her chat, came in, ignored the queue and then they both busied themselves with the order for 2 burgers and cokes. At 16.05 I gave up and joined my mate outside. 10 minutes later the other staff member came out and said "Sorry guys, but if you want to sit out there you'll have to come in and order a drink". "We did try earlier" I replied. "Well, it's empty now" was her only response, which summed up the problem with this pub.

My local pub. Would highly recommend the food, definitely worth trying the Yorkshire pudding wrap! A mix of tourists, local residents, trendies from the near-by gig venues and work locals, there's always a great atmosphere and polite, friendly bar staff. Great for good food, a relaxed drink, game of pool or to watch the footie.

I went up to the Arms on a Tuesday night to get a decent pub meal - and the Lucas Arms was perfect for it. The food was top stuff with a reasonable selection and a few traditional options served in an interesting way (like Yorkshire pudding wrap) that worked well to liven up the menu. The atmosphere was good, a mixture of old locals and after-work tradies, certainly relaxed. The bar staff were friendly too.
