Went on a Sunday afternoon with family. What we found was a pub / restaurant that seemed to be in decline?? 1, Ordering drinks took ages. 2, Tables were dirty. Asked to get ours cleaned and despite saying they would clean it,nothing. So when i asked again i was given paper towel and i had to clean it myself. 3, When we were sat at the table the service was very slow. Ordered the food and approximately 30 mins later it was served. My order was the Venison sausage and mash. What a disappointment !! Presented as two sausages on a small amount of mashed potato. No garnish etc. Then when i sampled the sausage, it was way over cooked and i could not cut the meat.So I sent it back. Overall impression was that the staff need better training. The Manageress looked stressed and the restaurant could do with a good clean. Won't be back.
Our Granddaughters have just treated us to Sunday Lunch . Haven’t been for many years . The decor was lovely and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Food was excellent! Lovely experience.
We had Emma and her team dealing with us tonight, and I have to say Emma was exceptional with her service and so kind with any and all requests. She was very helpful and willing to give us the best options and made the experience as joyful and simple as possible. The food was very good. I had the salt and pepper squid and then the pork belly, which definitely felt was worth the price we paid. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. We went on a night where it wasn't fully booked, so the noise wasn't bad, but do think if it was full, the noise might become a problem.
Really lovely pub - we came for breakfast and it arrived promptly and was delicious. It is one of only a handful of pubs in the Lichfield area that I know of that are open for breakfast, and it’s definitely worth a visit for it. Service was personable and Emma was a great host. We would definitely return for Sunday roast and the surrounding area will be lovely as we move into spring and summer.
A great pub with real atmosphere. We had a Christmas breakfast here just before Christmas and it was excellent. Emma and her team really understand ”service”
