The Watermans Arms (Brentford)

• Kakiage tempura was a mix of shredded vegetables and prawns bundled up into a ball and then deep fried
• The prawns were carefully cooked and this was a hearty
• Salmon teriyaki was glazed with soy sauce and mirin before cooking
• Yakisoba had buckwheat noodles stir fried with vegetables and prawns
• 35 a head (the four courses were just £
• Service was friendly and Mr Fry is an excellent host
• If you are ever in this area and want a hearty and great value meal then it is well worth seeking out the Watermans Arms
• The Watermans Arms is an old boozer that has recently been refurbished
• What sets it apart is that its chef/owner
• The menu mixes pub fare with Japanese dishes
• The pub itself is quite small and sparsely decorated
• A few specials are up on the blackboard
• A much more extensive Japanese menu is available if pre ordered
• Kakiage (tempura of prawns and shredded vegetables) was comforting and very pleasant
• Soba noodles with tiger prawns were very enjoyable
• An almond and pear tart was bought in and harmless enough
• The bar staff are friendly and helpful
• The food is made with passion and the value for money is undeniable
• Such as a good short rib of beef glazed with chilli sauce at a June 203 meal
• Though the tempura batter was not the lightest that could be imagined (11/20)
• Better was a dish of stir fried soba noodles with chicken and vegetables
• Though the spicy kick was rather underwhelming
• At the end there was a homemade almond cake with homemade orange marmalade
• The sponge was a little soggy
