General Information
We are a great little country pub offering lovely pub grub.
Our pub is part of Docklow Pools, which was founded way back in 1972, when two 20-year-olds aspired to getting out of the town and factories to own their own business.
Some 50+ years later, Docklow Pools is not only the first ever commercial fishery in the country, but possibly the most respected and beautiful places to holiday and fish you can find.
Docklow Pools & the Fisherman’s Arms work hand in hand to offer peaceful enjoyable times for both residents and locals a like. We don’t apologies for the large ish portions or that the dishes are mostly homemade aimed to Fishermen & partners, but its great everyone can come and share the fun.
We’ve sixty holiday properties on a weekly holiday lease basis for adults only, 14 fishing lakes, 110 acres of land & woodland to stroll and four private river stretches around the county. So, there’s quite a bit going on, even in deepest Herefordshire.
In the summer season, we are open as a pub, café, coffee shop & restaurant 7 mornings, lunches and evenings a week. So, you won’t go hungry!
Out of season, we are open Thursdays and weekends for food & drink.
In 2022, the team won the local award for the “Best Breakfast in Herefordshire”. That wasn’t just for tried and tested Full English, it was for all the marvellous alternatives like homemade American Pancakes and Eggs Benedict. Super Deb & Tracey quite marvellous at what they do.
Sunday is our locally success, our Sunday Lunch served as a Carvery. It’s very popular for a reason so it is strongly advisable to book in advance. Out of season we work 11.30am to 4pm, but in the summer it’s all day, lunch time to 9pm. Poor Neil’s hand must be falling off by then!
Docklow Pools is a real team effort so a private thanks to owner Josie for her delicious homemade cakes, Lisa & her housekeeping team for keeping us clean & tidy. Handy man Mark who you name it he can do it! The front of house funsters Adaire & Cathy. Bar team Graham, Alice & Alex. The kitchen team, Caitlin, Kerrie & all the other stars that shine brightly to make our pub and fishery a shining light.

The Woodland Walk
The Woodland walk is a lovely 40 acres of Herefordshire countryside to walk the dog, or take the kids for a stroll.
Its here to reward our customers who use the Fisherman’s Arms or Coffee Shop, so its unlike the National Trust.
The Woodland walk doesn’t include the lakes. Please keep that peaceful for our residents.
It is not a free walk:-
– Free of charge = We ask all customers use the Fisherman’s Arms
– £10 per car for those who don’t use the Fisherman’s Arms
The woodland walk is available all day for residents. For non-residents it mirrors the Fisherman’s Arms hours.
Plenty of free parking
