The Queens Arms

You know exactly what you're getting when you walk into this Chapel Allerton fixture, and sometimes that's precisely what you want. The Sunday roast queue moves at a steady pace, the beef is properly pink, and the Yorkshire puddings are appropriately massive. It's the kind of place where three generations can agree on lunch without anyone rolling their eyes. The setting won't win any design awards, but the staff keep things ticking along nicely, and you'll leave satisfied rather than surprised. When you need feeding rather than impressing, and when the kids are demanding proper gravy, this does the job thoroughly well.
