Food

At The Blacksmith's Arms, the emphasis is on good, traditional food, with meat, fish, and vegetables all coming from local sources. Everything is cooked to order by Lorraine, right down to the proper chips!

The varied menu changes regularly, with daily specials, but signature dishes include the Flaxton Flipper, a 12-14oz Haddock in beer batter, and homemade Beef in Guinness Pie.

The Sunday Roast, with homemade gravy, is always popular.

Vegetarian dishes are always available.
