Lovely location quiet and on the lovely canal with a very short walk to centre of town. Shared kitchenette allows for easy take-out or delivery meals and also plenty of restaurants nearby as well as simple pub food downstairs. Over a pub so some noise unavoidable on Friday and the weekend. Separate entrance with own key access at any time. Plentiful breakfast made to order by friendly hosts. Small rooms not really suited to business traveller but fine for holiday couples. Electric showers cut out due to low water pressure which was disappointing. Very convenient parking, although there was no guarantee of a spot when returning in the evenings.

Was a bit down on our luck after our canal boat broke down. These guys were so friendly, welcoming and helpful. We have popped in for a couple of drinks and all the staff are lovely. Definitely recommended if you want a friendly, cosy & nice time out next to the canal.

Such an idlilic spot, so relaxing and not far from the hustle and bustle of ring road and Llidl, a short stroll along the canal. Will defo be going back this Friday lunchtime, weather permitting. Met some lovely people and helpful staff!!

Room was nice, and good location by the canal. It would be good for me if breakfast was from 07:00 but not available until 08:30 The land lady did swap our breakfast for evening dinner. Nice

A great pub, with friendly regulars and good beer, always felt welcome even though I don't visit too often: it's a great place to sit with a beer overlooking the canal on a good day, and near the open fire in the winter.

Wanted to experience this pub for some time, the setting canal side was great, ducks meandering in, what's not to love? I didn't particularly feel it was a welcoming environment, there was a high volume of foul language from some of the patrons, so not some where I would want to take my kids! Cleanliness left an amount to be desired too, I am being generous! Apologies 🙏, location great, after that not for me or mine.

Stopped for a meal and a couple of pints while on a canal boat trip, the beer was excellent (Butty Bach and Town Crier) but they had stopped serving food so a bag of peanuts had to do

Very disappointed. Looks great from the outside, very dated on the inside. Sticky tables 😳. Menu is extremely limited and seems from 1970s (chicken in a basket???) About 4 TVs on, showing different sports but far too loud. Could be an absolute goldmine given it's location but definitely needs to up it's game. Shan't bother again.

Moored just up from the pub. Parked car in car park overnight after asking permission from barman. Out of courtesy saw landlady the following day to see if we could keep car there for a few days as we would be drinking in there for the next week and was met with a very hostile response. It's simple. Just tell your staff to say no and stick a sign on the car park saying no overnight parking. I have no issue with not parking there. Just a simple courteous no would have been enough. The result is they will lose our trade for the week. No food available. Don't try to get there by Google maps as it will send you down a blocked road. I tried to tell her this as it must affect trade, but she didn't want to know.

Ordered a beer and a glass of Merlot, the Merlot was off so returned it and it was replaced no questions or animosity. An excuse given though "most around here drink Sheraz so I don't know when the Merlot bottle was opened". We ordered a ploughman's lunch and a chicken kebab with chips. The ploughman's was a slice of ham, small wedge of cheese a pickled onion and a bit of salad and a small baguette which was stale and therefore unedable. The wife's kebab was slimy and unedable so she left it all and ate the chips. Nobody came to see if we needed anything or ask if the food were OK. We slowly drank our drinks expecting someone to come and clear the table but know one did so we left very disappointed. We went here because the reviews and the menu looked to our taste. The first thing we noticed on arrival was a scant and basic menu. I know things in their trade have been tough and can accept a simpler menu, but I can't accept basic food not cooked propper.

Very rude staff. After sitting for 15 minutes and no acknowledgement from any staff, I popped head into pub and asked if we could order food and drinks. Very rudely and abruptly was told the waitress would get to us, proceeded to show me an order of 5 drinks that was waiting and told me if I didn't want to wait I should go elsewhere! Then she was rude about us to another table!! Fantastic customer service 😂 same member of staff was rude/abrupt previous week but put it down to reopening stress and getting used to new way of doing things - nope just rude. Walked to watermill instead, welcomed immediately, food and drink served with a smile within 10 mins! Will not be going back.

We had a lovely stroll along the old railway track a couple of weeks ago, from Torton, over the top of Wilden, and ended up coming off a bridge, and walked along the canalside, to the Bird In Hand. We only had drinks, this time, and sat outside, admiring the beautiful view, but the service was good, the staff welcoming, and the pub is really nice too. The pub is set in one of the best locations in Stourport, and only a short walk from the town

Nice canal side pub. Unfortunately the food is dreadful. Ordered a steak and ale pie, which arrived in a pie dish with a big hearty puff pastry lid on it. On removing the lid I discovers an almost empty dish. Then to add to this I bit into one of the chips only to discover that the inside was black. I drew this to the attention of the cook who told me that that was their normal portion and did not offer any apology for the standard of food. Needless to say I didn't consume the "food". Sadly the worst thing about this was the attitude of the staff. They genuinely could not have cared any less. Shame really.

Have to say the experience was something of a mixed bag, but one thing that shone out was the attitude of the barmaid, who was superb. Our initial drinks (beer) were rather cloudy and tended towards sour. The barrel was changed and all was good. On food, I opted for the pie of the day, a boeuf bourginon variant with mash and veg. The veg were roasted and very good, both texture and flavour. The pie was very small and of disproportionate pastry amount. What filling there was, was tasty but did not constitute a main meal portion.

I have visited this restraunt a couple of times now and have had a poor expirence both times. They were very quiet whe we arrived however there were multiple dirty tables which were dirty for the majority of our visit and we were there for almost 3 hours. Considering they were so quiet the service was shocking. We waited for ages for someone to come over and take our order once someone did our drinks ks arrived failry quickly. We didn't wait too long for our mains. There was no check back provided for the entirety of our meal and it wasn't until the waitress finally came to clear our plates that we were able to inform them of a problem with one of our parties meals and the response from the waitress was that she would let the kitchen know and it was a known problem with this dish at the moment. No apology was given for this and one of our party had to leave hungry. We had planned to order desserts but after the length of time it took for the waitress to come back we decided to leave it please bare in kind there was only a handful of tables in at this point but no member of staff was to be seen. Apart from the manager who appeared to be more interested in sat at a table in the restraunt on the work laptop while there were tables dirty and customers being ignored. We finally got the bill and looking at it the meal we complained about was still on there and nothing had been said and still no apology. We asked for this to be removed as the meal was barely touched the waitress said she would go speak to the manager. I saw her go over to the bar and ask the manager then looked over at the table and glared at us and you could tell by his body language reluctantly took the meal off the bill along with the discretionary service charge as requested. We then paid the bill happily as the rest of the food was OK. But we still didn't recieve and apology. The restraunt for the entire time we were there on a Saturday afternoon did not have more than 5 tables in and if our experience is anything to go by it doesn't surprise me why the restraunts surround this one were busy on a Saturday and this one was dead. It's safe to say I won't be returning and it was supposed to a nice meal to celebrate my friends engagement which ended on a sour note.
