The Blake Arms

Head down to Penel Orlieu and you'll find The Blake Arms doing what it does best: being the sort of pub that actually feels like it belongs to the neighbourhood. There's no pretence here—just decent beer, reliable company, and the kind of atmosphere where regulars have their spots and newcomers aren't made to feel like outsiders. It's the type of place you stumble into on a Friday evening and suddenly it's closing time. The Blake Arms punches above its weight for a traditional boozer, whether you're after a quiet pint or planning to settle in for the evening.
