Boat & Railway in Wychavon

We had a perfectly lovely lunch, with good quality food, excellent service and a great atmosphere. It was also very good value for money. Well done and thank you.

EVERYTHING a proper pub should be…welcoming staff and friendly locals, try the dirty fries…a meal by itself! Great selection of ales, raging open fire, lots of outside space for sitting and watching the canal traffic glide by. Dog friendly too 😎 A PROPER gem!

Absolutely beautiful food, great portion and quick service, the atmosphere was fantastic and the staff are great and prices are right on the nose!

Had a very good experience at the boat and railway, good food pleasant staff and excellent beer. Nice atmosphere next to the canal. I would certainly visit again

This is an extremely family friendly traditional pub. The atmosphere is generally very and the licencees and staff are welcoming and friendly

Had a great evening sat next to the canal enjoying a great meal and fabulous real ale. Menu had lots of choice but we opted for the daily special offer of curry and a pint.

I know this sounds unreal 😳 don't role your eyes please!!! We popped in for a few beverages you can tell they know how to keep a beer, could me my pallet though 🤪, we did wobbled back to my boat!!, few beers makes you hungry, not sure id get served as it was busy but they managed to squeezedus in, needless to say food was absolutely fantastic and it was a most enjoyable afternoon and evening, thank you to the landlord and the hospitality made us feel most welcome 🙏 Thank you

Came here again for a few drinks and bite to eat! Great food, service and atmosphere in this lovely village pub. Kid and pet friendly, they are situated on the canal so if you sit outside you can watch the boats go past as well as feed the swans !

Beautiful rural pub setting, I had the Hot Dog for mains and a man and cheese starter, both were great. I would 100 percent recommend to one and all. Staff were polite and attentive throughout.

Great pub! Friendly & welcoming atmosphere, staff are always chatty & smiley. Landlord and landlady are amazing and it’s always a pleasure to visit!

Great food, lovely atmosphere and always great service when we visit. The pub is family and dog friendly too so our little one always has a good time when we go

Great little pub, busy when we got there but some of the nice folk in there squeezed us on to their table. Ordered food & was surprised how quickly the food came out considering how many people were eating there. Friendly staff who seemed to know everyone & friendly atmosphere. Will be back for sure. Thanks.

Love this place. Brilliant staff and great atmosphere. Good food and accommodation. A nice place to bring the family. 5 stars from me!

We had an exceptional festive meal at Boat and Railway Pub in Stoke Prior with business colleagues and fiends. The festive menu was a fab, offering a perfect balance of flavours and festive cheer. From starters to desserts, each dish was spot on. The staff were friendly and attentive. The pub's selection of beverages complemented the meal perfectly. Overall, a fantastic place for a celebration or any occasion. Highly recommend Boat and Railway Pub for a delicious and memorable festive dining experience. Five stars!!!

Would just like to thank the staff and management for a fantastic evening at the boat and railway beautiful tasty food well timed between starters and main course And a good selection of real ales and on Mondays the real ale is discounted I must try old school pub We did just turn up but I’d book so not to be disappointed Will be returning soon thanks phill jo and the eight of my family you looked after

We have had lunch here twice last week, both occasions the food was superb. I made slight changes to the menu on my orders but the cheerful Bar manager was happy to accommodate. Lovely local pub and I would 💯 recommend

Lovely food lovely couple running it and staff plus great food and view of the canal. A child just left a thank you note that’s the ultimate accolade. Just left on the table when they left a note saying thank you

Too confirm my review I did say to the owner That I my meal was cold and he took it to the kitchen and his wife bought it back untouched so I did complain at the time My review remains the same

Absolutely fantastic lunch, great pub beautiful food and friendly service. Highly recommend and dog friendly will be going again

This pub has a lovely welcoming atmosphere and our evening meal was excellent .The staff were very pleasant and accommodating .The pub itself is in a very pleasant country location and is clean and tidy. It Is definitely somewhere I would go to again.

We regularly book the small function room here for meetings. Carry and Coop do a fantastic job at looking after us and the service is always top notch

We ate here as a family at the end of our canal break. The owner was really friendly, there was lots of choice on the menu and the prices were great too. There's also a lovely open-air terrace that looks out onto the canal, and it's got a roof for when it rains! Highly recommended.

Have been on a canal holiday with my family 9 adults in total. Turned up after a difficult day, and the staff could not be more accommodating and welcoming. Our arrival was late for a Wednesday night but the chef kept the kitchen open. All meals were delivered to the table together, piping hot, and plentiful in size. For one lady to smash out our dinner was amazing. The bar staff were equally as helpful and friendly. I would ignore previous 1star reviews as I feel some people have unrealistic expectations

What a great location this is. Lovely canal side beer garden and great atmosphere. Food was very good and a great price.

I was here on business this time but have been here loads of time for business and leisure. The location right on the canal has been made the most off with a fantastic water level terrace. The pub itself is cosy and charming with fantastic...

Not impressed with this pub at all very unfriendly welcome. Food was awful will not recommend and will not return

This was the worst experience I have encountered. Came here for some food with two friends and asked for menus to order, and was told the kitchen was now closed, so ordered some drinks. On sitting down after 20 minutes or so , we observed...

Stopped here for a rainy afternoon. The lunch we had was excellent, 3 of us had the spicey burger, one lasagne, one mixed grill & one gammon steak (best for a long time). The portion sizes were good. The flavours were excellent and the service...

Had a lovely meal at the Boat & Railway , staff were excellent and the meal was delicious . Nothing was too much trouble and the food was piping hot .

Fantastic food, great warm welcoming pub situated alongside the canal , great staff and a buzzing atmosphere

It seems that over the years the service in this place has fallen to rock bottom. 16:30 on a sunny Sunday afternoon and they can’t serve food because 7 other people are. Not 7 tables, 7 people. No apology, no attempt to improve anything.

Great pun brilliantly run by Matt & Carrie & their excellent staff. The food is freshly cooked and lovely with plenty of choice available.

Really beautiful pub on canal side location with a lovely outside terrace & function room overlooking the water. The menu has a large & varied selection. The food is freshly cooked & good quality, served from midday until 8pm. They serve a wide range of...

Superb little local pub :) a very warm welcome each and every time …. And the food is consistently great.

Since Carrie and Matt have taken charge the pub hasn't changed much, but the food is absolutely gorgeous, the Sunday roasts are great (make sure you book in advance).. Matt keeps is ales top dollar 100% the best pint around here.. I'll be eating here...

This is a great pub on the canal. Had a great festive lunch here, well done Carrie. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

lovely meal could not fault it , lovely beef , veg ect my friends had starter , and turkey for mains and it was very nice

I should say upfront that we didn't eat here so we cannot comment on the food. However, we stopped here during a narrow boat holiday and we had a lovely couple of hours drinking and chatting and interacting with the locals. The surroundings are charming,...

Me, my uncle and friend had a nice trip out to the Boat and railway It is a hidden treasure. Serving a nice pint and good food reasonably priced by a scenic canalside. What’s not to like ?

First visit for suprise 40th bday.Beautiful buffet hot and cold food.Good range of drinks and reasonable prices.Staff so friendly and helpful.So lovely to sit at the side and watch canal boats passing by,even horse and rider passed by front of pub.So immaculately clean,and everyone so...

A warm welcome awaits you at The Boat and Railway. This pub is a hidden gem. Cosy and clean Overlooking the river Salwarpe. Do a varied selection of drinks and food menu. Fairly priced. Friendly owners. ✅

Stopped off for a spot of lunch, food was good but nothing special. My steak pie had cheese on top which was slightly weird and mash was a bit dry, but nothing was bad. Nice friendly staff. We sat outside by the canal with was...

Really friendly staff and lovely food. There were lots of choices for veggies which was great, and everything was really well priced.

A big thank you. Great venue for a small party. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and the buffet spread was fab I will definitely be back. A lovely location by the canal.

Under new management so gave it a go as last time the food wasn’t brilliant and the place a bit grubby. Had pie and mash with veg and gammon egg and chips. Pie home made and very tasty , good size too, the veg over...

As canal boaters we moored close by and were made most welcome by the new hosts of this pub. We had lunch there twice and enjoyed both visits. Would be ideal on a sunny day as it has a large terrace overlooking the canal.

Popped in for a couple of pints and a meal around 1pm mid walk. Three cask ales on so I was sorted. Very good menu and a few extra specials. Very nice food and surrounding. Well worth a visit and we will definitely be returning

went to this pub for a surprise 50th wedding anniversary do the staff were so friendly and helpful the room was lovely with a nice view of the canal but now to the food what can I say apart from amazing ,superb it was a...

Popped in whilst doing a walk from Hanbury Hall. Very welcoming staff and also people in the pub. I had a dog with me and they were very accommodating. We sat inside but there is an outside terrace right on canal side. I ordered a...

Great pub serving lunch and dinner 7 days a week. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious. It's deceptively large with a separate restaurant and a beautiful covered canal side terrace. They have various mid week special offers. One of their offers...

Returned for second time as previous lunch also great, and not disappointed. Great place to stop on a walk. Canalside pretty setting. Warm and friendly staff and delicious, super value sandwiches with chips and salad. Beer good too! All you want from a good pub.

Basic old school country pub. Beer is a good price and quite good. Food is fairly cheap and quite nice! If you're passing on the canal or nearby, it's worth stopping off

Went in here for a meal whilst on a canal holiday - 2 adults, 2 teenagers and a couple of friends that live nearby. The pub has a real "local" feel about it, and we were made very welcome. The locals and bar staff were...

I've been here for evening meals on numerous occasions and I can't fault the place. Curry night on Wednesday evenings, 2 for 1 steaks on a Thursday evening (my favourite), the food is always cooked beautifully and you get a right good plateful. The staff...

Visited twice now as we are in the process of buying a new house in the area. The food is excellent, all home cooked even the kids burgers and chicken goujons. It is also very reasonably priced. Both times we have been greeted with a...

We booked a table for 3 on Mother's day. We had a lovely woman who served us, the food was good. There wasn't a specific set meal you could order off the normal menu but Mum's were promised a pink gin. It lacked atmosphere in...

Welcoming pub with well-kept real ale and good food. Excellent value and friendly service from this family-run establishment. A proper Midlands pub.

Met friends for an impromptu lunch. Great seating along canal side and good food. Staff very helpful and friendly will come back again.

We went for a lovely walk along the canal with our dogs, then popped in after seeing the dogs welcome sign outside. Great value 2 for £10 and some yummy looking specials, gutted I didn't see those before we ordered but we enjoyed our lasagne....

Superb late afternoon early evening menu. Large choice and very good value for money if having the two for ten deal. Also daily special and a well kept cellar with good choice. Canalside so a recommended visit winter and summer.

what an absolutely friendly welcoming pub sat right next to a canal beautiful place staff were polite and pleasant gill the boss was ace worked really hard she never stopped and my massive compliments go to the chef he cooked some really nice food enjoyed...

Regarding the previous postFirstly Ron came to look at the room. I suggested he use our other room downstairs (which has the disabled loo) but he was insistent that due to the HUGE numbers of people attending he wanted the upstairs room, we do not use the function room as it needs a refurb. I was also asked to stock a large amount of Newcastle Brown, Budweiser and Jack Daniels, which i am now stuck with! It was far easier to sneak their own alcohol in, in carrier bags!A small number of around 50 people arrived, a HUGE number!NO ONE asked for their money back, they took it upon themselves to leave without paying and without my knowledge.The whole fiasco was more trouble than it was worth and these people are not welcome in the pub again We pride ourselves on our standards, the quality of our food and our friendly service

went to a party upstairs on saturday 24th nov 2018, never again !it was freezing cold, and not very clean, but the worst thing was they didn't open the bar upstairs , so we had to go up and down stairs for our drinks and...

we had a rally at Stoke Prior club across from pub over the weekend I called in the pub asked could they do Sunday lunch for 15-17 people said yes got in pub around 12.30 told to go to back room then come order food...

Fell into this place by chance and they accommodated 15 of us with great service and outstanding food. The crackiling side for my pork was lovely!

Lovely local although parking is not so good if it is busy. The food is delicious and nothing is over priced. It is on the canel side

A consistently good pub for a pint (or few!) of well kept real ale and cider. Good gin selection too. Can't vouch for the food but I imagine it is homely grub. If you're passing pop in :)

We were towards the end of our canal-boat holiday and stopped here for dinner. The landlady was both busily working bar and waiting on tables but she did not keep us waiting. The drinks were attractively priced and the menu was enough to cater for most tastes. The food was certainly plentiful and very good; again we did not have to wait long. It would certainly be somewhere I would visit again. Very good, you should go there.

Stoped for a Saturday lunch. The staff were helpful and friendly there was a good choice of food on the menu and it tasted really nice.

Just had a wonderful meal with friends. A super friendly pub with excellent food at very reasonable prices. Will definitely return

This is a grand old pub we visited a few weeks ago under new management. The ales are in excellent condition and we wish them well. Guide books suggest there was a skittle alley here in former times, it would be great to see this revived, but next time we will treat ourselves to dine on the lovely canal-side terrace, hopefully after a few rounds of skittles! Paddy and Anne

Visited this canalside pub on recent narrowboat holiday. Nice welcoming atmosphere, good menu of reasonably priced home cooked food. Families welcome and clearly well supported by the locals. Would visit again.

I have been a regular of this pub for many years, no longer!It's changed hands recently and I have given the new management a fair chance but the service is slow and rude.My family along with friends visited for food and it was burned and inedible - when it finally arrived that is. We waited over an hour for the food despite the pub being relatively un-busy.Like the previous reviewer, we had to change our order several times as many of the menu was unavailable. Then in the end left with a very hungry small child only to have to make alternative arrangements for our meal.Go to the nearby places instead like the navigation, queens head or the bowling green.

Just had a beautiful meal at the boat and Railway.lovely friendly staff and nothing is to much trouble and we will return

Fuimos a cenar con la familia y amigos de este banco. Aunque hemos estado en este pub numerosas veces en el pasado y he comido allí mucho tiempo es la primera vez que hemos comido allí desde el nuevo dueño se hizo cargo.

Visited for lunch. Excellent menu, good standard of food. Friendly service. Will certainly visit gain

Quería parar por comida en el camino a casa, mi compañero dijo que no comer aquí tan pronto como vio la alfombra, pero me insistieron en que estancia para tomar una copa y echar un vistazo al menú.

Amable y acogedor pub junto al canal, muy popular entre los lugareños y pasando los aficionados por igual. Terraza con vistas al canal. Bonita rubia y honesto para comida de pub a Dios a precios bastante valor. Nos encantó.

Aquí veces incalculables Es mi local y siempre he encontrado que tiene un ambiente relajado con un personal maravilloso, buena comida, excelente selección honesto bebida, la mejor ubicación de propina. Amable, cálido y acogedor. Siempre es un placer visitar ya sea una comida familiar, una de rodillas con un montón de amigos, o un lugar tranquilo de almuerzo solitario. Perro, adecuado para niños, un auténtico y encantador pequeño pub

La ubicación es genial, justo en el canal. Sin embargo, es un pub "locales". Idioma de la clientela industrial, un menú limitado que no va más allá del profundo friendo, y no una cultura de mantener las cosas limpias y ordenadas. Habiendo dicho eso, la comida llegó rápidamente, y el los pudines eran bastante agradables.

Attending a Vintage Transport Rally at the nearby Sports Club l visited this establishment for evening meal, the Gammon meal was excellent value for money served by very pleasent staff with whom I enjoyed a brief humourous chat about dining alone an a Saturday evening being Billy no Mates, nice atmosphere and would visit again if in the area.

We visited this Inn after mooring our narrow boat alongside the Inn on the Worcester and Birmingham Canal.It was Friday night - disco and Karaoke night.The place was buzzing and the staff very friendly and welcoming.We didn't use the restaurant as we had already eaten, but partook of the good real ales and had a very enjoyable bottle of Rioja wine.Having enquired about local shops so that we could replenish our stocks on board the boat, we were told that the local store had closed and that we were in the middle of nowhere!Amy and Dan very kindly gave us some milk and a lighter for our gas cooker.We had a very enjoyable evening dancing the night away. I even enjoyed the Karaoke!Many thanks Amy and Dan

Excellent little pub right on the canal. Staff very friendly and food was good. Sort of place you enter as a stranger but leave as a friend. Seating right along the canal side so great on a warm summers night for drinks and a meal or just to have a drink and relax.

I visited the boat and railway yesterday for a drink and a meal and I have to say the beautiful young lady behind the bar could not do enough to help me she made my visit incredibly pleasant I will definitely be dining there again to parks for bar staff and the chef as food was A1++++

Such a picturesque setting alongside the canal that carried so much of the Salt from the salt works which were brought by John Corbett in 1852. You can imagine the pub packed with workers of those salt works who stopped on their way home to slake their thirst.But it was not like that.A lady of disapproving expression defended the bar from all comers, so successful was she that no customers dared hang around inside treading on the carpet or sitting on chairs. Ok, we thought and walked through to the canal side terrace. All the tables looked lonely and beckoning but we took up two tables near a man with a dog. He was so pleased to see us, he leapt into conversation and his dog stared vacantly away. We chatted until I was sent to order a drink and some food. I passed through the silent bar, apologised for interrupting her phone call and took drinks and a menu. The man with the dog had gone....We settled for extravagance; "gammon, egg and chips all round" with tomato sauce as well. The service was prompt, the cuisine effective if oleaginous and served with the reverence it deserved. We counted the drowned drosophila in our two containers of brewed acetic acid and we saw a boat. What fun! After our luncheon we tried to cut away quietly but were caught in the open crossing the carpet. Offering our apologies to the stalwart defender of the bar, we slunk away promising audibly, with forced smiles, to see her again, although we felt her reply may not have been reciprocal...The Boat and Railway is quite close to Bromsgrove.
