Skip the neon beach strip—regular patrons duck into D'Arcy Arms for tavern warmth and cold stout.

The counter crowd leans into comforting tavern staples: tender roast pork with crisp crackling or steaming beef and Guinness pie.

- Signature Roast Pork: Tender pork served with crisp crackling and hearty sides, drawing Sunday crowds before selling out.

Before you head over
Helpful guidance to smooth out your visit—check the website to view the latest menus and plan your meal.
Order Sunday Roasts Early
The Sunday roast pork and trimmings draw a heavy afternoon crowd and frequently sell out; place your food order promptly upon sitting down so you do not miss out.
Head to the Bar for Wi-Fi
Motel rooms can lack a consistent wireless signal, so head down to the main pub and bar area if you need a reliable Wi-Fi connection during your stay.
Clarify Group Banquet Plating
Pre-ordered large group festive and special menus can be served family-style across shared platters rather than individual plates, so confirm service preferences when booking.
