The Wadkin Arms

Great service.very clean great beer.perfect traditional pub

The Wadkin Arms, what more can I say about this charming friendly pub, they have a sign hanging when you walk in saying Enter As Strangers Leave as Friends and nothing could be more true thanks to the Landlords Alan and Martin and the rest of the staff .

Great pub, really friendly staff and always a great atmosphere. Well done to Alice and the team. Would highly recommend!

A great local village pub. With very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.

We have lived in the village for just over 10 years now, the pub has always been a focal point of the village and a great place to visit, the previous couple that ran the pub were wonderful and after numerous attempts at giving it their all during covid, multiple lockdowns and repeated changes to rules that didn't give them a fighting chance despite pouring their soul into it the pub was closed which was a very sad time for the village, the proprietors and all that know them! After a long absence the pub was taken on and is back to being an important part of the village for the majority that live here. Not being hindered by covid rules and restrictions which made the task impossible previously the lady that now runs the pub has absolutely smashed it out of the park. there are regular food vendors that visit (all of which are good quality) there are events themed for children, fund raising initiatives and constant enlivenment around the seasons and anything relevant at the time, during summer there were all sorts of great events organised specifically aimed at young children and families. we have a young family and all the effort to create a truly family friendly environment and keep coming up with fresh ideas and functions is great. I'm not one to write many reviews but having seen a very strange and quite offensive one regarding the demographic of customers myself included who visit the pub I felt compelled to write something. I would hope people reading the reviews will see straight through the nonsense written and visit the pub for themselves. I was there briefly yesterday and commented that while there was music playing and a fair amount of people of the non loutish variety chatting, I was actually inside the pub and couldn't really hear the lyrics of whatever was playing so whomever is sat in a dark room rocking back and forth wearing ear defenders must have some other long standing deep seeded issues that may need to address before scribing such strange reviews.The previous owners of the pub are missed greatly but thankfully we all still see each other and to Alice who now runs the pub, well done for making it such a wonderful venue and an integral part of Osgodby.

2023 updateMoved to osgodby for some peace and quiet; but now the constant noise and rabble from this place is running my life. The owners [possibly previos] (star pubs) won't do anything about it. The council won't do anything about it. I can't even sit in my garden or open a window at night without listening to overbearing music on many an occasion and loud scummy people shouting on weekends during most seasons. There's nothing I can do apart from use noise noise-cancelling headphones which aren't always effective. This is not how I want to live but it's how I'm forced to.Used to be a nice country pub. Now seems to promote noise and loutish behaviour. Ruining things for people who live in the vicinity.

Fantastic staff, fantastic food, very welcoming with our 2 dogs, will denfitnly return when around the area.

Great pub found by luck well kept real ale very welcoming

What a lovely village pub. Good atmosphere and lovely staff. Have also been to the Greek and Pizza takeaway vans in the car park, we ate them in the pub in front of the fire with a drink.
