Blend in Lichfield

We live in Lichfield and never knew this outstanding little place existed, even though it has been here for 2 years in December. Tapas is outstanding. Been back twice in a week now we have discoved it! Recommend, nachos with beef, chacuterie board, pig cheek and churros. If you want to try something different give it a go. Its located quite inconspicously by the uniform shop , opposite Greek chef.

Overall lack of direction in the restaurant, you walk in and there’s no one to greet you nor a sign to say “wait to be seated” After finding a member of staff I was then told to go sit wherever I like, but she didn’t tell us whether it was table service or not so again no idea what to do when seated. After heading to the bar to figure out wether it’s table service or not, im greeted by two young men with there heads down glued to there phones, when asking them what the crack was with ordering food they both looked like they didn’t even know what day it was. After the awkward encounter with the bar staff I then walked to the other side of the restaurant to order food. The mixed platter for two was £60 and comes with no sides other than some coleslaw and a few pickles which I thought was extremely over priced compared to other smoke house platters at places like hickory’s that come with pit beans, fries, coleslaw, pickles, corn bread, gravy ect. When the food arrived the pit beans was basically a huge pot of watery gravy with barely any beans in and any meat it was essentially a watery soup with a bit of meat thrown in didn’t resemble pit beans in the slightest. The burnt ends from the platter was missing, so the platter was ribs, brisket, sausage and pulled pork for £60, no one asked if we wanted any sauces or come and asked how our meal was, overall service was very bad including the waitress and the bar staff. And to top the whole experience off they give you Wooden disposable cutlery to eat meat with? Bad experience definitely wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

We visited early around 9 am both ordered a full breakfast and it was delicious ! Great food at a decent price ! Highly recommend. Drinks quality also very good

Excellent grub allways has been for 40 years of me using the chippy notbused for last 5 years as don't live in that area no more but thanks all for serving with lovley smiles

The service left much to be desired, with a long wait just to place our food and drink orders. Unfortunately, the meal didn't improve matters—the chicken was extremely dry, and the potatoes were undercooked. For the price we paid, the quality was far below expectations. Quite disappointing overall.
