Quick info
About Clarendon Arms
On Castle Hill in Kenilworth, Clarendon Arms is a gastropub with pine floors, stained glass and castle views, pouring prosecco on tap alongside local beer. The kitchen runs homemade lasagne, a giant Yorkie with roast beef, and Hunters Chicken, plus a burger with twice cooked chips and coleslaw. Sunday brings roast dinners with large Yorkshire puddings and roasted joints, and the Fryday deal pairs fish and chips for two with a bottle of wine, upgradeable from Chilean to New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. A happy hour runs on drinks. The pub is walk-in, with separate dog friendly and non-dog areas, and staff give treats to dogs. The front room can be booked for groups wanting a more private spot near the bar. Parking is on-street, limited to two hours without a permit, or at a nearby NCP with charges.

Customer Review Summary
Roast dinners draw the most praise, with reviewers describing homemade roasts with properly roasted joints rather than processed meat, and Yorkshire puddings as big as your head, including a giant yorkie with roast beef. Close behind is the Friday fish deal, called a steal, with huge chips, crispy batter, perfectly cooked fish and large pieces of halloumi. Other dishes named include homemade lasagne, Hunters Chicken, a burger with twice cooked chips, the best onion rings one visitor has ever tasted, and sticky toffee pudding with custard on request. Reviewers repeatedly call the portions good value and the staff friendly and welcoming, and a few mention a happy hour and Prosecco on tap. Dog friendly and non dog areas are separate, and one family booked the front room for a private lunch. The recurring complaint is parking, either on street with a two hour limit without a permit or a charged NCP car park, and one reviewer says the increased charges put people off. One visitor spilled a cider after two sips and had it refilled before they could apologise.

“Had a lovely night catching up with friends. As we were a party of 8 we were given a table at the front of the pub which was great as rest of the room was empty. The rest of pub was busy so would have been very noisy 🙄 Food & service was amazing & we will definitely be back + Prosecco was on tap which I'd never heard of.”

“We visited the Clarendon Arms on Tuesday after seeing a recommendation on here the day before. We were greeted by very friendly staff, menu had a good selection of proper pub food (we opted for the homemade lasagne and giant yorkie with roast beef). Food was fresh, tasty and well priced. There are also separate dog friendly and non dog areas which suits all. We took our puppy and she was fussed and given some treats. A gem in the town although they have said people are put off by the new increased parking charges. We will be back again very soon!”

“Wonderful pub in Kenilworth. The team are super friendly and accommodating. The Friday Fish deal is a steal, and I really enjoyed my sticky toffee pudding (extra points as you can request custard) would visit again!”
