Bit N Cherry in East Staffordshire

Little gem of a pub with restaurant. Food excellent, as well as service. Best to book to guarantee a table. Good choice of dishes for every course

⭐️⭐️⭐️Wow, wow, wow!!⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely perfect pub, from the warm welcome good wine and fantastic food…we are so fortunate to have this treasure on our doorstep!… check out the steak deal on a Tuesday evening absolutely delicious… cooked to just how you like it … and the staff couldn’t do enough for you! Well worth a visit of local or travelling around the area. X

We were passing looking for some Where dog friendly to have lunch. We were delighted with the choice. Friendly staff great beer and tasty food . Thank you all

Eat your heart out Rick Stein and son! The best battered fish I’ve had in years. Amazing Mackerel starter and the best battered fish for absolutely ages! Not to forget the tartar sauce - simply delicious. Apparently, chef’s name was Craig. Couldn’t even try his steak pie as it had already sold out - by 3pm! If you’ve enjoyed Whitby’s finest - (or Rick Stein’s ‘finest’), you need to try Craig’s offering here. Wow, so good. Splendid service, too. Thank you.

Food was good and tasty. Staff were polite and attentive. Beer was fine. Not a bad evening out all in all. Would probably go again.

Wow - what a good find. On looking for somewhere for Sunday lunch we thought we’d give this traditional looking pub a try. At the rear it opens up into a quote a large dining area with table service. At the front is a traditional and characterful bar. The Sunday roasts were absolutely spot on and of very high quality. I particularly liked the honey glazed carrots - and they were great value for money. The service was excellent too and we couldn’t fault it. Would definitely recommend.

I dont usually write complaints and I did write and send an email which was not responded to but I felt I had no other option than to review after after lunch on the 14th July. Myself, husband and daughter had Sunday lunch with you and were very disappointed. The chicken and pork along with accompanying vegetables were lukewarm. The cauliflower cheese was congealed in a blob. Service was extremely slow for food and drinks, yet the place was empty. Opted for dessert. Ordered lemon meringue and a trio of ice cream. On reading back the order, no mention of the lemon meringue. I repeated that I'd like the lemon meringue only to be met with "we don't have any". Would of been nice to have been told on handing us the dessert menus. Over the years, we've visited on numerous occasions and always raved about the service and the food. On this visit, not so. We realise that the England football match was showing that evening and as a result, bookings for dinner were later and the kitchen working extended hours, but it just felt like no one cared this lunch time? No ambience either, music not even on. Such a shame, always been our go to.

Went for Sunday lunch with family, it was delicious. Three of us had roast pork, I had roast beef. It came with roast potatoes,mashed potatoes, and either Yorkshire pudding or stuffing. Also a dish of vegetables per couple including beans, mange tout, honey roast carrots and broccoli. We also ordered cauliflower cheese which was lovely and quite a large dish and a serving of pigs in blankets.. Friendly and efficient staff, we were really surprised that it wasn't very busy. We live in Burton and will certainly come again.

Decided to visit here on the way back from a walk around the area and was welcomed by their team. On this particular visit it was for Sunday lunch, and we was not disappointed! We couldn’t decide on which roast so we just had to pick the Sunday sharer which included chicken, beef and pork! We couldn’t resist not having lamb so we paid the extra. Since visiting the area we thought had to fit in a pudding, went for the sticky toffee and it is not heavy at all and you can tell that it is homemade. Bonus! We will be back

We hired the restaurant at The Three Horseshoes for our tennis club Annual Dinner and we were VERY impressed! The food was excellent. It all came out together, which for 42 of us can't have been easy, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff couldn't have done enough for us, very helpful and very friendly. We shall definitely be returning - thank you!!

Fish night special , excellent selection on offer as well as full menu and as always good vegan/vegetarian selection. Top quality food and great service .Thanks to the whole team

We went for the Mexican specials they were incredible. The food I would say was better than the Mexican restaurant we went to the previous weekend! I had the chicken Fajitas and the cinnamon churros and they were to die for. My friends has the beef quesadillas, which looked just as good as they tasted! The service and the atmosphere in there was really nice! Holly the young lady who served was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our evening! Dave and Freddie were great behind the bar keeping our drinks flowing! Definitely will be back to try some of the other specials

We were intrigued by the weekly themed specials & this week was American. Food was fantastic, my husband even said the brisket was the best he’s ever had! Being smokehouse fans we’ve tried quite a few in our time so this was a big statement from him! I had the special burger, & it was big but so tasty! Dave, Molly & the team are always so welcoming, we regularly visit for food, especially Sunday lunch which always delivers!

Have absolutely no idea why this placed isn't packed on a Thursday night. 2 steaks for £40 with a good bottle of wine too! I live in the village and I'm grateful to have this place on my doorstep. I'm pretty sure the rest of the time the food is great too.

Thursday night steak, bloody fantastic! £40 for two 8oz steaks and a bottle of wine. Onion rings, chips and tomatoes. Soooo good.

Ordered homemade steak pie & mash x 2. This meal was undoubtedly the worst meal I have ever been served,ibfact it was not edible! Remember packet ' smash' well add some butter and this is what you'll get served,along with watery peas that taste nothing like ' mushy' peas and a pie that looks OK until you crack it open and find it a third filled with a filling that resembles dog food....sorry,not true my dogs food looks better! When I asked a member of staff if it was smash ( sure she didn't know what I was talking about) she replied'..we are well known for our smash' and the pie is made from meats left over from Sunday....? today is Friday?? I refused to pay,which was accepted without argument. We left feeling sick & confused from the whole experience. Is it surprising pubs are closing nationally when they continue to serve food that's not even edible? Why would anyone want to spend their hard earned cash on food that's such poor quality and cooked to a lower standard they could cook themselves? Hardly surprising pubs like the Three Horseshoes are no longer the social hub of the village,packed to the rafters like it once was in the late 80s.

Just love this place always good quality food at reasonable prices the steak nights are great value Service is always good well worth a visit

A great village pub with no shortage of laughs with the staff and locals. Good value bar meals and great steaks in the restaurant with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Can’t wait for my first pint of Guinness in 2024!

Warm, friendly and cosy pub. Great for a family meal out. Delicious food. All freshly cooked and beautifully served.

Booked last minute as we were driving through, waited a while for food but don’t mind as long as its worth waiting for, unfortunately it wasn’t, veg was hard, very small portions of food on plate , Christmas lunch consisted of 1 pigs in blanket, 2 roast potato’s , 2 average slices of turkey, stuffing and gravy, dish of veg consisted of carrots, parsnips ( cut in cubes ) and sprouts , definitely not value for money and won’t be going back anytime soon

Nice steak and chips which represents excellent value for money, however the desert was inedible. We ordered a banoffee crème brûlée and the banana tasted like what could only be described as chunks of tasteless rubber , unsure what happened there. No offer of refund , shame as the steak was good.

That really was a delicious Sunday lunch - had the sharing Roast plus cauliflower cheese, and asked for a box to take home as so substantial and lovely.

It’s early December and we are trying out various local good pubs for Christmas Faye but we were so disappointed with this 🤦‍♀️ we booked last minute on a Saturday and was surprised all times were available when all of our usual faves are fully...

Great village pub with good atmosphere. Well worth a visit. Had a lovely meal there with family. Staff really friendly and couldn’t do enough to make sure everyone was happy.

Had a family dinner here and food was fantastic, great ambience and atmosphere, staff very friendly and obliging. Dave the landlord very engaging and entertaining. Definitely recommend and will be back.

After promising reviews I was disappointed on arrival. There were several menus and it is hard to do such a broad range well. I ordered safe with fish and chips, which was ok. Others were more ambitious, only to be disappointed. Pies (too much soggy...

Visited 23/12 for a pre Christmas evening meal. It was VERY busy but the staff coped well and the food was delicious, unpretentious, well cooked and nicely presented. Will definitely be back in the new year.

Excellent roast meal in very pleasant surroundings all served by pleasant, amenable staff. Would highly recommend

On holiday in the area with friends had an evening meal in this charming pub and found the specials menu was above and beyond what you expect from pub grub. So delicious we decided to return for dinner on our last night staying near here....

Superb Valentines dinner, excellent in every respect....Chateaubrin was best bit of beef I've had in ages

Went here for my birthday Sunday lunch, having been here before a few months ago. The food doesn't even resemble how it used to be - Roast beef unable to cut as it was like shoe leather, Raw broccoli and cabbage, Dirty, unpeeled carrots, Just...

Thank you so much for our amazing food. Everything was just perfect. You looked after us so well, covid best practice including track and trace in place. Would highly recommend

Stayed one night as visiting nearby attraction. Room was small, bed was small, bathroom was small, tv was small however everything was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The milk had gone off in the little uht milk cartons and oddly we were only provided with...

Wife and I revisited this pub after stopping en route to AShbourne and visiting the National Arboretum- what a lovely pub - friendly staff nice clean ambience and cracking food. Sunday Roast was 11/10 brilliant - vegetables cooked beautifully as was the meat.

We visited with another family for a meal on Monday night (pie night!) There is always a very warm welcome at The 3 Horseshoes from the staff and the food is excellent. We’ve enjoyed a number of takeaway meals from here during lockdown including curries...

So I thought I’d treat myself and order a Sunday roast from the Three Horseshoes in Barton under Needwood it was absolutely stunning and plentiful and I would highly recommend it. It was dropped off at a safe distance, ordered it for a specific time...

The fish & chip Friday deal is such good value it's not to be missed. And the quality is high. The waiting staff are all so friendly and efficient. We always enjoy ourselves here.

Went with friends for a late (4pm) Sunday lunch. Started well with plenty of room in the car park. The menu was traditional but unfortunately there was no beef left. However the sharing meat platter was superbly cooked and piping hot. The vegetables were cooked al dente and when we asked for more vegetables as the portions were minute, more were brought straightaway. We only had this one course as it is quite expensive for a normal Sunday pub lunch. With 4 basic drinks (one for each of us) added to the bill, it was £65 excluding the tip.Overall it was enjoyable if you enjoy light meals and are not big drinkers.

Called in on the off chance as was in the area overnight. Had a Thursday night special for two inc half a cavat of Rose wine for £29.99.. Excellent value & cooked to perfection in a very welcoming atmosphere..Thoroughly recommended

Cosy but modern and spacious. Warm welcome and quick to be seated and served drinks. Varied choices on lunchtime menu. Spotless restaurant and toilets. Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff. Steak cooked perfectly and presented well. Chicken with wild mushrooms really tasty. Lovely bottle of red, reasonably priced. Easy to park. Gorgeous lemon dessert. Will definitely return, particularly as we spotted overnight accommodation.

Although we have visited most pub/restaurants in the area we had never been here before. Our first visit was last Friday when they had on the Fish Friday Night with Fish and chip meals for 2 and half a carafe of wine for £17.50. Excellent value , tasty and well presented food, friendly servers and a nice atmosphere. Certainly will return at another time.

Out for family meal, asked the waitress a couple of questions regarding the menu, she didn't know the answers, we asked if she could find out, she never returned to tell us. One of us ordered the "special " which was a disaster on a plate. Looked like just came out of the microwave. Was inedible and was sent back. Ordered our desserts, then told 10 mins later that they were out of some that we ordered. Asked for our bill, 2 times, and sent it back 3 times as it was wrong, charging us for food and drink that we didn't order. Waitress approached our table and started to hand out drinks which we never ordered or consumed. We questioned that these are not for us and she apologised and took them to the correct table. Obviously this can happen to anyone, but it happened 3 times on that evening. A lot of work to be done at this place. We were not the only diners to complain, the table next to us waited over an hour for their mains, when it came out, it was the wrong dish, and now the kitchen had ran out of what they initially wanted. Not good!

Stopped in the area while visiting a few friends and decided to have a meal in the restaurant. It was the best decision of the whole trip, the food was incredible and beautifully presented. The staff were super helpful and nothing was to much trouble. I personally wouldn't hesitate to visit again if it was a bit closer to Bristol.

Visited on a Tuesday night which just happened to be steak night. 2 rump steaks and a bottle of wine £21.95. The steaks were cooked to perfection, exactly as ordered. A great meal served by very friendly and helpful staff. Well worth a visit if in the area.

Visited yesterday for the first time but certainly won't be our last visit, absolutely top class home cooked food, spotlessly clean, attentive friendly staff, reasonably priced, even enjoyed the acoustic background music. A gem of a place

Booking was made by receptionist at the Hilto At St Georges, as their restuarant couldn't fit us in at a time convenient for my young grandaughters.A nice warm welcome on arrival, & shown immediately to our table. A short delay being given our menu's & asking for our drinks order. Food order requested promptly, after the drinks were provided.The choice of food was good & was well cooked & presented. Staff were friendly & efficient.

Great pub, ate in the bar and was pleased with the meal, service and price. Great deals throughout the week.Thoughtful staff.

We had a great evening. The food was fabulous and the atmosphere was very relaxing. I would recommend this night to anyone. The menu had a good variety of different dishes and the specials board had something to suit all. The meal came with a carafe of wine which complimented the meal. We will all be returning again Thank you

The food we were served was beautifully presented and very tasty. Clearly the chef takes great pride in his/her work.The service was excellent and I would recommend paying them a visit.A real gem in the village.

I was wedding planner and guest for a wedding reception held at the Bit N Cherry in April 2016. I can't compliment the chef enough on the quality of the food - everyone commented on how great it was and there was a lot of love for the cheesecake! The highlight of the wedding breakfast was the personal touches made by Mike the chef - he created a sharing dessert platter for the happy couple with 'just married' wording. Everyone on the top table got a personalised dessert plate. It was a lovely surprise touch which the bride and groom loved. The food for nearly 40 guests came out promptly. Quite a feat for such a large group of people. I've been here in a smaller group as well and never been disappointed. As a vegetarian sometimes food can be bland but not here. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend for a couples night out to larger parties.

Had a great Friday night fish supper here a couple of weeks ago. Less than £20 for fish and chips for two including a carafe (think it was 1/2 litre) of a very good house wine. What's not to like? All perfectly cooked and elegantly served. I am very fussy about my battered fish, being an east coast girl, and this was perfect. The chips were homemade, at least double fried and perfect. Highly recommend.

Restaurant quiet as we were fairly late for lunch but quality of food was great and staff very friendly.

I am 'in the trade' as a chef who produces very good food. I choose to come here as the food choices are well thought out, with an interesting menu, where I have several choices, given I am a pescetarian and feel a little spoilt for choice. The restaurant has a lovely ambience, the service is welcoming and friendly and I would recommend this to any diner that enjoys good food, cooked with more than a little care. The chef enjoys his craft.

We had a lovely afternoon tea. It was great having the family together. The service was perfect and the sandwiches were lovely and fresh. The cream cakes and scones were gorgeous. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and looking forward to eating there again very soon. We would thoroughly recommend the Afternoon Teas

What a great Afternoon Tea it was just delicious. The service was fantastic. We went on the Queens Birthday and we were treated like royalty. The food was fresh and tasted gorgeous. A great selection of finger sandwiches, fluffy cream cakes, scrumptious clotted cream scones and as much tea and coffee as we wanted. We would certainly return. Thank you for a great afternoon. We have booked for the Prosecco Afternoon Tea on the 30 April. Can't wait

The service was excellent, the steak was a perfect medium and the wine v'nice. A good deal on the steak night. Plenty of other nights available.

There were enough choices on the menu for everyone. I didn't notice the specials board though and the waitress never mentioned it either. The steaks chosen by 2 of our party were perfect as were the other meals chosen. Desserts seemed on the expensive side but were good. A good selection of wines to suit all budgets too

Food is fantastic, service great and layout is cosy and modern. Save for a special occasion if your eating out the back or if you fancy a quick bite the front bar covers the main pub foods. Service is spot on, good wine selection too.

Went for lunch with my daughters and had a wonderfully presented 3 course meal with fantastic service & surroundings. Accompanied by a lovely wine it went down a treat :)

Ate here last night as we were staying at The Three Horseshoes. Food, service and quality of stay all excellent. Staff all very polite and friendly. Pretty village.

We were a group of about 10 ladies and were given a limited choice of menu. All of it looked delicious and there were lots of clean plates, we all had a main and sweet for £16. The food was excellently cooked, I had the fish and chips followed by a wonderful Panecotta. Apart from our group there weren't many other diners so mid week is a good time for a group booking. Service was also excellent, we were waited on royally. The restaurant is attractively decorated in a fairly contemporary style, despite it being a very old pub.

10/10 great food great service lovely room. Fish and chips were incredible. And lots of GF options. Will def come again.

Nine of us sat down on a busy Saturday evening at 7.30. Staff were quick to bring menus and take drink orders, but failed to tell us there were specials on a blackboard round the corner. Food ordered and came fairly promptly, some had starters, others not. Main courses were all interesting looking, served efficiently and plates and food fairly hot. The menu was not terribly exciting but the specials were good, so most had those. All had puds which were delicious. Service very good and the young ladies that served us were lovely. All in all a good experience

We have had a fab girlie breakfast today. The service was great and we all thoroughly enjoyed our food. Thank you

Family party (25people) on steak night so glad we chose it the steaks were fantastic cooked to perfection and all served together (don't know how the chef managed it) none steak eaters were also catered for, the staff and hosts were great nothing was too much trouble for them, we will certainly be going back as will other family members.

Very good night with friends. The restaurant was busy and is clearly very popular yet our service was prompt, the food was piping hot and beautifully prepared, and the presentation was first class.The staff wee friendly and efficient and made our evening fun and relaxing. Highly recommended

Service attentive and friendly, good humour and fun! Reason I'm writing is to praise the chefs....the food was gorgeous. Properly cooked and beautifully presented!

Had a midweek meal during Xmas period n found place warm n welcoming. Food was cooked just right,with nice n varied choice of menu and good draft beers. Very clean n tidy, with main bar, restaurant bar n restaurant. Staff were friendly, food was great, beer good. What more to like. Recommended. (Was surprised how nice it was, as have driven past hundreds of times, but never noticed it as food pub. A welcome surprise indeed)

Stayed for a night at The Three Horseshoes. Had a meal in Bit n Cherry restaurant which was lovely. Food was well cooked & presented. Bar & restaurant staff were very pleasant & friendly. Our room was nice & clean with everything we needed for. Would definitely stay & dine here again.

The food was excellent .The service was good. The beer was very good .Can't believe the house wine on the two steaks for £19.50 is now a british wine made from concentrate !This was not pointed out when we ordered.The house wine was Hardys some time back and very good .I realise things move on and they are trying to make a profit without losing trade but what has been done has now down graded the entire restraunt.I will go again because the food is so good but not order the house red which is a poor joke . Look to pay the extra £3.50 and get a nice bottle of wine.

A nice local pub and the food always looks nice as it goes past (we do go occasionally for drinks)But a disappointment tonight, service was good but the food portions were small ....not enough meat and no veg to be seen at allIt was a let down for a family meal although the drinks and the warmth of the pub were good the rest was a shame

Met here with my pals for a girly Sunday lunch. The food was great with a good selection. They also catered well for one of us who required gluten free food and one a vegetarian.The only downside was the fact they totalled the bill incorrectly twice, firstly giving us a bill for a different table. However they quickly apologised and the staff were helpful.

Expensive and quite a concise menu. On the evening we visited, some of the food was not available which made it even more limited and although the waitress was extremely pleasant she really didn't know what was in the food or a description if you asked questions.

This was our last meal on the last night of our visit and we LOVED it, the food was excellent and the atmosphere was great! Loved the mug shots on the walls from various musicians!

Twos steaks and a bottle of wine for £20...can't go wrong!! Beautifully cooked. Added a wonderful scallop starter and shared a divine chocolate dessert. Great chef!!

We booked the table for lunch on bank holiday monday. We had advised my father was in wheelchair, however found no easy access disabled toilets.The service generally was very poor. They were not busy, we had to get own menu's, not offered drinks and generally push for service. The food however was very tasty and enjoyed by all.

My friend and I visited Bit N Cerry at the Three Horshoes last Sunday. I didn't phone to book until that morning but after a little rearranging they were able to give is a table at a convenient time - thanks. I had the lamb roast Sunday dinner and my friend had the burger. We both enjoyed our meals very much and followed with lemon verbena panna cotta with raspberry sorbet ( which came with a rather delicious lacy chocolate thing) . Service was attentive but relaxed and we were not rushed at all. Altogether a lovely relaxing Sunday lunch.

We popped into the Shoes for the first time in years on a damp bank holiday Monday. The place was fairly busy in the dining room and we were fortunate to get the last table. The lunch menu was well thought out and very tempting. Both our food and drinks were of superb quality and very keenly priced. The restaurant was spotlessly clean and nicely decorated with a very pleasant atmosphere. Well done folks, a great effort.

Had a lovely evening here, the food was good quality and reasonably priced. I especially enjoyed the chocolate desert, it was yummy! Staff are friendly and happy in their work. The waterfront should take note!!!

Visited early on a Tuesday lunchtime, ample on site parking, although it was very quiet. The Dinning area is accessed from the pub, but, in a separate contemporary furnished room.Our server was very pleasant and helpful – the (lunchtime) menu was largely standard dishes with some modern twists. Our three mains came in good time, served piping hot and all tasted good (portions not over generous, but enough).The two puds were very good – the sticky toffee pudding with salt caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream was the highlight of the meal.We would certainly make a return visit when next in Barton-Under-Needwood.

As a vegetarian, I find it difficult to get a decent meal, other than pizza and pasta, in a restaurant. However, the food my husband and I had here was perfect. The service was good too, as was the ambience.

Met up with a couple of friends here for an early eventing meal. restaurant is nice, which is located at the rear end of the pub, with about 15 tables. I chose the Portobello Mushroom burger, which was topped with a ring of goats cheese and a handful of leaves, in a brioche bun. I did enjoy it, but the goats cheese was cut far too thick and I don't thing the leaves were needed. I'm also not too keen on brioche as a burger bun. However, staff were good and it has a nice atmosphere. I haven't given it four stars, because I wouldn't say it was 'very good'.

We visited on a Tuesday evening and the restaurant and pub were pleasantly busy. Excellent fresh food. good wine list and good EPA beer. Great service-overall really nice evening.

We liked everything - the service and the lovely young waitresses were smiling and efficient. The food was fabulous. Only complaint - we did not like the grim photographs on the wall - horrid - but they did not diminish our enjoyment of this great restaurant.

Thoroughly enjoyed our early evening meal - great stop over place on the way to the peak district.Good menu with daily specials, tasty food, well presented with very friendly service.We would recommend a visit
