  “We had dinner at Queens Arms and were pleasantly surprised to find a Japanese restaurant inside this beautiful old Victorian pub. The place feels cosy and relaxed, with a really welcoming atmosphere. The staff were genuinely friendly and attentive. They recommended drinks based on what we like, and their suggestions were spot on without feeling pushy. We ordered quite a few dishes to share, and everything tasted fresh and well‑prepared. Some dishes stood out more for us: Salt & Pepper Squid — Super tender and lightly crispy. The coating wasn’t heavy, and the seasoning had a nice balance without being too salty. Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings — Crunchy outside and juicy inside. The pieces were plump and not oily, which we really enjoyed. Teriyaki Beef Tongue — Surprisingly tender with a clean flavour. It’s not something you see everywhere, so it felt like a nice treat. Soft‑Shell Crab — Big portion, very crispy, and the inside stayed soft and sweet. Even the legs had meat, which was a nice bonus. Tempura Selection — Light batter, not greasy, and you can tell it was fried to order. Unagi Don — Generous piece of eel, soft and rich without being overly sweet. Paired really well with the rice. Angus Steak Don — The steak was cooked just right, tender with a good amount of flavour. The soft boiled egg on top tied everything together. Yaki Udon — Chewy Sanuki udon with a savoury sauce that coated the noodles nicely. Dessert (Green Tea & Mango Mochi) — Soft, chewy, and a lovely way to end the meal. Overall, we had a great evening — tasty food, lovely service, and a unique setting. It’s definitely a place we’d happily come back to.”

  “The definition of a hidden gem! Hidden away near patricroft station, you would never think there was a pub serving Japanese food! We had the chicken wings, eel rice bowl, Udon and wagyu burger with egg, curry and rice. Everything was delicious and the portion sizes were generous. Lovely attentive staff and quick service. Definitely worth a trip!”

  “Excellent heritage pub right on the Manchester to Liverpool train line serving Japanese/Asian style food , reasonably priced. The Black Sheep beer was 10/10. Other beers available, there is a nice outside area and a decent car park. Just check the exact location before setting off if you don’t know it as it’s just set off the road,the website has the details.”

  “Incredible Japanese food just outside Eccles. Some of the best I’ve had in the UK. The scrambled egg and pork rice bowl and the udon in tsuyu broth were the real standouts for me. So much flavour. Staff were amazing, attentive and welcoming. Will be back!!”

  “The oldest railway puband it gained its name after a visit from Queen Victoria herself who visited in 1851. A traditional British pub with Japanese small plates and tempura. Their food is good. But fried pork chop a little fatty & beef tongue a little chewy & not juicy. Relaxed and comfortable sitting. Only pub provide Sapporo on draught.”

  “I had an exceptional experience at this pub. The Japanese food was absolutely amazing—beautifully presented, full of flavour, and far beyond what you’d normally expect from a traditional pub setting. The service was excellent as well; staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely keen to make the visit memorable. The décor strikes a perfect balance: posh and refined while still embracing the warm, classic charm of a traditional pub. It creates a wonderfully inviting atmosphere—relaxing, stylish, and full of character. The overall atmosphere was fantastic, making it a perfect spot for both casual outings and special occasions. Highly recommended!”

  “This restaurant is amazing. Having delicious Japanese food in a historical building with good service...... We ordered Pork Cutlet Katsu with Rice and Curry Sauce, Capelin Tempura, Soft Shell Crab Tempura, Tempura Platter and Teppanyaki Mixed Vegetable, all of them meet our expectation of Japanese food. Glad that we find a good one with reasonable price and we will try the eel and ox tongue next time.”
