Smiths Arms

Carlton Village, Carlton TS21 1EA

Lunchtime Meals

Evening Meals

Located at the centre of this rural village, in the north-western outskirts of Stockton, and where a strong community spirit continues to prevail. The Smiths is a typical late-Victorian pub, recently refurbished, and which manages to satisfy both drinkers and diners alike. With a new licensee since December 2017, there is now a renewed emphasis on real beer. One handpull is devoted to Camerons Strongarm, and the two other handpulls to guest beers, often sourced locally. The pub remains one of the few in the area to have retained a separate public bar, whilst the restaurant, converted from the original blacksmith's workshop, offers good value quality food, including specials on Mon / Tue / Thu. There are real fires throughout. It has large beer garden at rear. Check winter opening hours to avoid a wasted journey.
