It's a rarity me and my partner have some quality time off together, so we came here with our dog for a quiet drink as it's supposed to be a dog friendly pub. To our disgust the scruffy blonde bar tender approached us about our dogs occasional barking and asked us if we could stop him as it's not nice for the customers. He was only answering to the other dogs in the bar, one of which belonged to her and the others her regulars. Which funnily enough she didn't seem to have an issue with.

Great traditional pub in the heart of Lichfield. They have an extensive range of well kept beers. Extremely popular with regulars and visitors alike. Sport is shown on several screens around the pub and it can get very busy while major events are being screened and could benefit from better ventilation during these times. They have a decked courtyard at the rear of the pub which is also very popular during the summer. Lastly and most importantly, I never had a bad beer here, if it's not right, or not ready, they won't sell it!

Entered with my 21 year old son. Asked them about age restrictions as my 16 year old nephew was outside. Told we weren’t welcome and f**k off. I was astounded and asked her to repeat what she said and she did. What an awful choice of staff to take on and manage your business in your absence. To make matters worse, I had lost my mom only a few hours earlier and we were feeling quite upset already.

Had the homemade steak, ale and mushroom pie with mash and veg. pastry was cooked on top but raw underneath, just white and very soft.. The filling was ok only one lump of fat. The mash was LUMPY i had to mash myself with a fork. Place was almost empty and food took ages to come so no excuse for this poorly cooked simple food. on the plus side husband had a burger and this was cooked well

It was a Sunday & one barman said my wife was too loud. It turned out he was the manager. No swearing or anything abusive by my wife just her being happy & chatty with a couple of friends we had bumped into but he was obviously mysogonistic to say it was a problem. We are 60 years old & he made us feel so unwelcome. He should be ashamed. It was even worse considering that there was a table of eight close to us who were actually loud but nothing was said to them. Totally uncalled for.

A nice pub with different ales and a usual drop in for me to have a couple or three ales. I went to bar and stood for a while nobody waiting, a regular customer arrived at the bar, a member of the staff came up and started pulling their regular drink!! Not who's first. Hey ho that's pubs for you. I bought a tonic water for my wife and was charged £3.50 , I questioned price and was told yes correct price. Wow , I know purchase price in warehouse is about 79p. I little expensive? I then made it a task to check out other pubs , on average £2.00 . Sorry will have to give you miss from now on.

I had already visited a few other pubs in the town before coming here and I honestly thought I'd died and gone to heaven...! No less than EIGHT real ales available and the three I tried were all in superb condition. What really made the place special though was their "no under 21s" policy. This meant that my wife and I could enjoy a nice, quiet drink without any brats running around the place. If only more pubs would adopt this policy....!

I went with ex colleagues. The beer was excellent , as were the cobs and pork pies. Donna, the barmaid (am I still allowed to say that?) was a delight. She was a proper barmaid. She was on her own but dealt with everything. She booked us a taxi to the station, Top class. Circumstances dictate that it is unlikely that we will return for a while but if the opportunity arises I/we wouldn't think twice,

Lovely afternoon visiting Lichfield and happened upon this backstreet pub. Busy but all good. Served one drink, no problem at all. Went up for another, let the guy who'd waited longer than me go first as a decent person would. Old barmaid in dungarees enters the fray, serves bloke by me who'd just come to the bar first. I politely said, "Excuse me, I've been waiting a while? Miserable old barmaid barked at me 'CALM DOWN '. Seriously??? I calmly replied,'I'm perfectly calm, thank you. I was just making a valid point '.. She then barked,'Do you want a drink or not? '. Absolutely horrible woman. No need whatsoever for her rude, arrogant treatment of a customer that'd done nothing wrong whatsoever. No problem with other staff apart from this miserable sod. She slammed my partner's glass of wine down and poured me a dreadful pint of cider with a massive head on it, I had to knock the top off it to before I left the bar. No need at all for the dreadful attitude and sour faced actions of this obviously unhappy old woman. Avoid this dump.

The desserts are on a board with lots of choice for everyone. We were able to enjoy our food with background music at just the right level for us to hear and hold a conversation at the same time without raised voices. All in all a really good night with no problems at all 🙂
