I'm 61. One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Lovely food from the set menu. Particularly enjoyed the fish and chips. One of the barmaids/waitresses pulled the wrong beer for my first pint but I had it, as I was going to have that beer later; these things happen. Not cheap, but worth it.

What superb food and well priced. The fish and chips were as good as I have ever had all our party enjoyed their food. We were served coffee in the garden on a beautiful day. I can heartedly recommend this place

My husband and I have been here before and enjoyed it so chose here to take my parents when they visited from Somerset. Slight delay with my husband's dish which we were informed about in advance by our excellent waitress. Delay was minimal. The food was superb! Best pork chop I've ever eaten! We all had different dishes for starter and main and not one of us could fault anything. Too full at the end would be the only negative! Thank you all for making my parents' visit that bit more perfect! There was also the same lovely atmosphere I've always experienced here. Want to return as soon as I can!

This is not pub grub, this is not bar food, this is not a burger joint. This is a restaurant which serves absolutely superb food. The staff, the presentation and imagination of the food, the superb quality is outstanding. We came away having had a wonderful experience. Well done to you all

Absolutely excellent meal for a group of six, myself being coeliac. I have no worries coming here and have had a delicious fish and chips( the only place where I eat this as I trust them). The deserts were excellent and every meal was priced on the ‘Specials’ list where we could choose a two or three course lunch. Two courses were plenty. Service was excellent too.

This was our second visit after a local recommendation and did not disappoint The chef clearly understands fish. Our food was beautifully cooked and presented, staff were attentive, friendly and efficient and the whole experience was faultless. I would definitely recommend this pub if you are looking for fantastic food, and great value for money.

I usually only go on trip advisor to leave good reviews but after several very poor experiences at this place I decided to share them. Dropped in at around 12:00 for a coffee with a friend and - despite ALL the tables being empty - we were told quite bluntly that there were no tables available and they couldn’t accommodate us. No attempt to jiggle things around or suggest sitting at the bar etc. As I mentioned, this was not an isolated incident. Several times previously I have been there on a Friday night when we were told it was last orders and we needed to drink up - before 9pm! And on another occasion one of the staff actually started washing the floor around our table well before they had called last orders. Don’t like complaining as a rule, particularly about local businesses, but this place is so consistently unwelcoming and unaccommodating that it has really annoyed me! I won’t be giving them any more chances.

We were attending an event at nearby Avoncroft Museum on the Saturday evening, staying nearby and looked for somewhere to have dinner on the Friday evening. We arrived a few minutes earlier than booked and received a warm, smiley welcome and shown to our table. The wine list and menu were already on the table, so we were able to choose quickly. Service was swift and attentive throughout the evening. The food was absolutely delicious and worthy of a Michelin star and we sent our compliments to the chef. We will definitely be back in the summer as we saw they have a lovely garden, just right for summer dining and drinks with friends. Well worth a visit.

First visit to the Ewe & Lamb and it was absolutely fantastic. Service was excellent, drinks were great and the food was some of the best I've eaten in a very long time. The beef wellington was absolutely first class. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality of the food and all of the staff we encountered were lovely.

My friend and I use this venue to meet up on a regular basis and never have any complaints. However, this time we did notice a reduction in the portion size of the main dish and, in fact, it was not particularly hot. Also the tart was not as good as it normally has been, so marked down this tiime. Hopefully back to normal when we next attend

The two adults really enjoyed their breakfast, especially the eggs benadict which was so tasty. The two children ages11 and 9, who can be a bit fussy were not so happy. The younger one thought that when she cut into her Lincoln sausage it was not cooked as it was pink. It was perfectly cooked, but she still refused to eat it. The older one does not like streaky bacon, she prefers back bacon. All in all we would go back in a shot minus the children.

A nice warm welcome upon arrival and shown straight to our table. Service was prompt and friendly and the food delicious and well presented. The only small negatives (and they are small) were that the empty glasses were not taken from the table when new drinks arrived and the ale I was drinking had run out at 1.30pm. This could be a supplier error though and no fault of the establishment. In all, a very enjoyable meal.

Booking the table it was not made clear that the only menu was a fixed price menu, very limiting. The starter and main were poor in size and taste. The only positive was the dessert for two. I normally frequent the Ewe & Lamb on a weekly basis. Food is normally very good and menu selection is very good. Dissapointed with the valentine experience and cost. Will not be making the same mistake next year.

We came for our Valentines meal - which we enjoyed - however there are a few points which made it less than brilliant. We were put in the conservatory which is lacking in atmosphere and warmth and felt like a bit of an add on. The staff were polite and helpful. However, having mentioned I am a vegetarian I was promptly served Nduja butter. I had to ask if it was meat, and of course, it was. My starter was delicious (!!), the main was pretty lacklustre though (ricotta pasta in a tomato ragu), and being the only vegetarian option on the menu, I was stuck with it. The bottom of the menu did say “ask for vegan options”. I asked about them and was told there isn’t any - not brilliant really. We had our puddings to go. I would come back, however I would want to sit in the pub part. Thank you.

First found out about the Ewe and Lamb as a funeral wake was being held there, the buffet provided was delicious so I could only assume their restaurant food would be equally as good. Absolutely gorgeous Sunday lunch every time we visit. Brilliant value for money at £18 per person. So much so, that we travel from Sutton Coldfield to the Ewe and Lamb if we plan to eat out for Sunday lunch. Nowhere else compares. Staff are always super friendly, drinks are reasonably priced and the flavours on Sunday roast (beef) are absolutely stunning. Have not ate from the main menu but would assume this is also very good.

We came on an early weekday evening just after New Year. We were surprised how full the car park was at such an early hour. However, we did get a table and Lily the dog was allowed in the bar. I had been here just before Christmas and liked the haddock fishcake with curry sauce. I had that again with a soufflé to start. I will always have a soufflé if it is on the menu. Both dishes were good. Service was friendly and efficient and there was a roaring fire in the grate. My partner and I are pescatarian and we do like to go to restaurants that are dog friendly.
