Feb 2024: New menu was surprisingly very tasty. Flat breads went down very well, pizza was very very good and tasty. Staff where very pleasant and well friendly. Much improved. Original: Average pub. Foods ok, if they have it in stock. Push you to order the app when you walk in, but the app didn't even load.
Went during mid afternoon, had the hunters chicken baguette and it was absolutely 10/10. Baguette was so fresh and soft and the rest of the meal was so tasty. The waitress that served us was called Debbie and she made us feel very welcome, checked on us to see if everything was okay and was over all really lovely to interact with.
We had been previously at the same time a few times and had no problems. On this occasion although it was quick and pleasant experience at the bar for ordering we had to wait a long while for food to be delivered and by the time it came had to rush. It also meant that we got hemmed into the quiet corner it normally would have been by other larger groups, only two of us.
We came here for the elf masterclass. The staff /elves could not do enough for the adults and the children! This needs to be on next year for definite ! Would definitely recommend!
I don't like Birchwood. There, I've said it. You may call me a snob, but these 'new towns' don't do it for me. What the planners did do right here, though, was to build a pub, too. Ok, so it's on the Asda carpark and there's not much else around, but at least there is the Peacock. I don't much like places that encourage drink-driving (registering your number plate at the bar gives you free parking), but it is what it is. It's a Marston's pub, so the food menu is extensive, as is the selection of drinks. As above, however, they've got a captive audience so quality and atmosphere is a bit hit and miss, and it's not cheap (a pint is generally over £5) but they do 'meal deals'. What you do get, however, is very good. The Sirloin Steak Americana (£16) was divine and the Mega Mixed Grill (£20.95) was large (and did beat me!), albeit a little overcooked. The wings and ribs to start (£6), with the 'devlish' hot sauce was very good indeed. Staff can also be a bit hit and miss (Debby was definitely a hit!) and children/families are more than welcome (there is a small indoor play area, and outside playspace too). The Peacock has a large outdoor seating area for when the weather allows (not much of it is covered). The toilets were clean enough though could do with a revamp. As with all these places it's a community hub, and rightly so! If I do find myself in Birchwood again in sure to come back.
