We had my husbands wake in one of the function rooms here. The staff were all very friendly, and they put out tea and coffee at no extra cost, we didnt even had to clean up after us which is a very welcome change. I will now go in try their food at some point. Very helpful and accomodating.

Excellent food, excellent polite staff and beautifully furnished premises. Not many sunday dinners where you actually get half a chicken on your plate as you do here. 😉 The steaks are to die for as well. All in all a REALLY good experience. Have been back 3 times now and every time it was bang on. Keep it up gaffer. 👌

We was invited to my friends wedding at the Horse and Jockey and we had a fantastic time.. We got back early from the wedding and waited in the bar area. The people who run the Horse and Jockey made us feel very welcome and it was really clean and tidy. When we went up stairs to the function room we was well impressed and the people we was talking to said the food their was excellent The food we had at the reception was excellent and the staff was really professional. In the future if I needed a function room with good food,friendly staff and a great atmosphere the Horse and Jockey would be the first number I would call.

I have just been and had the most amazing food from the new menu. We ordered nachos which came with fresh home made guacamole which was stunning. We also ordered the catfish and the burger. Massive portions and reasonably priced. Enjoyed every mouthful and we will certainly be back!! Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Booked for a meal at 6.45om as we were told they where going to be busy. H&J are in between menus and Brewery’s, so some of the food on there they hadn’t got but that was clearly stated on a label on the menu. Ordered sirloin steak and smothered chicken. We received it bout 20mins after we ordered, chips were to die for not frozen but fresh and chunky really nice, meal was plentiful & hot good prices. Then there was a party of about 20-25 that arrived just after we had been served, then chaos set in not for us but for them, the chef was brilliant coming out bringing food and asking if food was ok. There was only 2 people serving the food, the party being a party was noisy and things got confused with their meals. Children running about with balloons going everywhere, whilst others were trying to eat their food. Took us 10mins to order desserts which came out quickly but custard wasn’t with one dessert and by the time it came out pudding had gone slightly cooler. Staff was chatty and friendly, but seemed to concentrate on the bar. We will return when new menus are set in place.

We've not been here for Sunday lunch before. There were fewer people than we expected, certainly given how nice the food was. I think will spread quickly as it's also very good value at £6.95 for a Sunday lunch. Between us we had the turkey and the beef and both were very tender, nicely cooked, and tasty. It's a plated meal rather than a carvery, but there were three portions of vegetables. In good Black Country fashion, you can have as much gravy as you want :-) Piping hot, and served very quickly, it was a treat. We'll be back.

Visited this pub as I haven't been in a few months due to personal reasons nothing to do with the pub... I was hopeful that I would enjoy a lovely evening as previous, how was Wrong was I pub does not have the same atmosphere.. appears to be new bar staff who don't appear to know the basics in customer service no engagement and I felt very awkward. I was very disappointed in my visits as I always experienced a warm welcome not anymore I don't imagine I will visit any time soon. Such a same

Shocked when I visited the horse and jockey today and was in complete shock at the service I received. I work in the community and visit the pub on a weekly basis with one of our service users who looks forward to going for a game of darts, pool and to have a ice cream. I have never had any issues and always found staff very welcoming and friendly but today was a different story. First was told that he couldn’t play darts as the Xmas tree had been put in front of it and they weren’t prepared to move it. Second the pool table area was blocked off and to top it off was told no ice cream as kitchen was closed due to not doing food today as weather is bad, I mean 2 scoops of ice cream out the freezer is it too much to ask. I really ain’t sure what has happened but am in shock and the welcome I had ,and to be stared at like we were aliens think we will be finding another local now for our gentleman. Unbelievable

Went for midweek lunch with a friend. Was just going to have a sandwich but was tempted by the homemade Turkey, Ham & leek pie , my friend had a Chicken burger , both were served with homemade chips. It was lovely, couldn't finish it all. The lunchtime offer was 2 meals for £9 , great value and a lovely treat from my friend. Staff were very friendly . Was not very busy, at these prices it should be bustling.

Este lugar no es uno de esos que normalmente ven como una primera opción para algún sitio para comer, pero nos alegramos aparecimos. Preciosa zona de pendiente.

Been here about once a month for a while. Really nice Sunday carvery. Lovely tender meats, nice selection of veg and crispy roasties, all at a very reasonable price. Just off Junctions 9 (IKEA, NEXT , B&Q etc) Just carry straight on into Wednesbury and it is on your right - much better than the Chestnut. Normal Menu also available on Sundays. Good parking and nice pint of Guinness to boot!

We popped in for the afternoon. We were feeling rather peckish so decided upon two tuna baguettes and one chips. For just under £9 we had two measly and tiny baguettes and 20 chips. It had discoloured lettuce and extremely small baguettes. A very poor quality snack and certainly not worth £9! We won't be eating here again! It's not recommended!

The food was at or above average for a local pub but the chips were amongst the best available other than in a chip shop. The kitchen staff (of one?) forgot the onion rings for one of our party and the coleslaw for another. The bread used for the ham sandwich was wonderfully fresh but the ham that was described as 'thickly cut' was little more than paper thick and the sachet of English mustard was disgustingly sweet. How many Michelin stars are needed before anyone can master the art of blending Coleman's mustard powder with water.

Phoned to check the beer and dart layout spoke to manager Paddy he told me what beers they had on and confirmed the darts layout all sounded good Went on Friday night with my sons hopeing for a good game of darts and a good pint of real Ale.After arriving at the pub I was unable to hear what the young barmaid was saying to me (admittedly I am a little deaf ) but after asking her 4 times I would have thought she would have realised this my son had to tell me what she was saying, The pub seamed very friendly but beer was very poor, the dart board light did not work and the board was loose we could not drink the beer which we left and went to another pub we did not eat at this pub so we are unable to commit on this

After reading a number of good review, myself and 4 other family members decided to try the Horse and Jockey out!!!We arrived early evening at 1715hrs to a relatively empty room. We ordered our food promptly, 5 minutes after ordering the bar staff advised us there was no Carbonara. That did not deter us and the choice was changed without any worry.After waiting what seemed to be an eternity 50 minutes in total we were then advised that two of the other meals that we ordered were not available!!!The bar lady was very apologetic. We asked the question why it has taken them 55 minutes to tells us the food was not available. When on earth was the food going to be cooked for the other dishes. We were asked what we want to do. Straight away I asked for the money back as KFC was down the road and would provide us with some substance and a much quicker service.The money was given back promptly and an apology for the service provided was offered. The ?? manager of the public house although having seen the website I don't actually believe he was would not refund our drinks bill or offer any other recompense for what I see as a very poor experience. He offered apologies but no answers to why we had been waiting 55 minutes to then be told the food ordered was not available.A disappointing experience

Our company recently helped a charity renovate a garden very close to The Horse & Jockey over two days during a very wet week in November. We had booked lunch at the pub for the two days of the job, but when Carol & Paddy heard what we were doing they very kindly treated our team to a great sandwich lunch on both days. If you're in the area and want a warm welcome and good food you'll find it here in a really great community pub!

My husband and I had an appointment in Tipton and decided to look on tripadvisor for somewhere on the way back to Penkridge to have a meal and a drink. Thank goodness we found Carol at the Horse and Jockey. She was so welcoming. We ordered our drinks and sat in the bar when Carol asked if we were thinking of staying for food, which we were. She asked if we would be more comfortable in the lounge and couldn't be more attentive and nice if she tried. I had the liver and onions and even though it came with mashed potatoes and I preferred chips it wasn't any bother to change the order for me. My husband had the meat and potato pie with chips and peas and a large gravy boat of extra gravy if needed. All this for £6 because it was Monday and they had a special offer on but on an ordinary night it would be only £10 anyway. Even thought the menu's looked like any other pub grub place please please don't be put off because the food is NOT your normal pub grub. My liver was soft and melt in the mouth with lots of beautiful gravy and my husbands pie was a proper pastry pie bottom and top filled to the brim with meat and potato the way it used be done.I would highly recommend that you visit Carol as everything she is doing is top notch. Well done

I have had a various snacks and meals and always been satisfied with quality and quantity of the food, the home made chips to die for. Its clear to see that Carole & Paddy care about their pub, always fresh flowers on the bar and tables (a change from the plastic one at other venues), it is always immaculately clean and polished , would highly recommenced both function room & Pub.

We visited this pub as had seen a write up about it in the local newspaper. We had a very substantial Sunday Lunch, There was a choice of Beef, Turkey and Lamb Shank. We chose the Beef and Lamb Shank, both very nice, served with home made mash, roasters, cabbage, carrots, peas and which was the only downfall two very dry stuffing balls. Lovely homely atmosphere and I will most definitely be back with my elderly parents. There was a list of acts and tribute bands, all at very reasonable prices so ideal for a night out. All in all a very enjoyable experience.

Visited last week first time in many years since it was Rogers Rib Room...Decor nice and spotless clean,,Staff were friendly but a bit half soaked...,two girls behind the bar serving both the locals in the bar and the restaurant customers. The menu was uninspiring and as stated previous, no different from any of the eateries in the area...however the steaks we ordered were fine..and.the homemade chips were exceptional !!...just how your mom used to do them and they saved the day really...I had Liver with mash which was of the ''Smash'' variety..but i enjoyed the meal never the less.. The staff should concentrate on one area..my daughter had no fork and no-one was around so she actually had to shout them from the bar were they both were..there was no ketchup and they got a simple bar order wrong..just minor things that are easily rectified..just give the restaurant customers some service please.

I have been to the Horse and Jockey for food, nights out and family occasions. The food is delicious and there is entertainment on every week which is anything from live music, comedians jewellery partys or live football coverage. When we have held party's there Paddy and Carol are very helpful. They have really turned the place around and the atmosphere is friendly, welcoming and fun. Its the only place round here now with atmosphere, as many pubs have now lost the spark , but the Horse and Jockey has it. The staff are also really friendly and helpful. The only way is the Horse and Jockey :)

Our family including my 75 year old mother and 18 year old daughter attended the Horse & Jockey on Friday evening and was entertained by Karen. The event was celebrating Armed Forces Weekend and her talent in singing all the old musical and war time songs was tremendous. Made you feel really proud and took my mom back many years and stirred many happy memories. Everyone joined in and the decorations in the room were fantastic. Lots of flags to wave, bunting and also union jack boppers for the head. The Bar staff got involved and were excellent, always a smile on their faces and very attentive, they added to the atmosphere and was interested in the customers they were serving, which makes a pleasant change.Room layout good, plenty of bar staff, attentive to the needs of customers and a fantastic venue.I think Carol and Paddy are planning to book Karen again close to remembrance Sunday, honestly this is one not to miss.

Always a warm, friendly welcome at the Horse & Jockey! Recently refurbished to a high standard, the Horse & Jockey has everything, including a much-improved function room for the local area - worth a look!. Have enjoyed many a party in their function room and have also been to a few of the regular entertainment nights that are advertised with a good variety of singers/bands. Good beer and food; have eaten here a few times and can honestly say I couldn't fault anything. Nothing's too much trouble for Paddy & Carol and if you have any requests for special events/celebrations they will always consider them. There's something for everyone at the Horse & Jockey and children are always welcome!

Visited the Horse & Jockey recently with my husband and one of our friends and I must say that we were very impressed. The food was excellent and the chips were to die for!!! The staff were very friendly and helpful and we will not hesitate to visit there again. They also have a function room, although we didn't look at it, but since we live only half a mile away we might consider the venue for our Golden wedding next year so we will ask to see it the next time we visit.

A very local pub with average food and drink. Better facilities close by so drive past if you can and try to avoid.

What a lovely pub, fantastic ambience with a warm and welcoming feel. Not often you can go to a pub now and have freshly cooked food; well you can in this pub - home made chips... not only brings lovely memories back but food is very enjoyable. The menu is sufficient for a pub plus their are also specials on offer.The staff are very attentive and very, very pleasant. We have now been here for just a drink and also food; the entertainment evenings are fantastic and the place has a lovely buzzing atmosphere and always made to feel welcome.A lovely public house with great landlord/lady - Nice to have a really good pub in the area

Tuesday 6th May 2014 my sister and I popped along to this local refurbished venue to sample the food on offer and I must say their liver and onions with 'real' mash and veg were to die for. The room has been redecorated sympathetically with a snug cosy home feel to it. The staff were really helpful and friendly. I would recommend family or couples to go eat here, its not your formal type of place but if your looking for great value home cooked food at a reasonable price this is the place to go.

Been a few times to this pub. Staff are helpful and friendly. Went for an 18th birthday with family. There was 17 of us eating. We all ordered our food together but sadly didn't eat together. Food came in dribs and drabs so as one part of the party were finishing the others were just starting. The problem seemed to lie with the mixed grills!! The last member of our party got her food when everyone else bar one had finished. By this time she had gone off her food. When it eventually did arrive the piece of steak (if that's what you could call it) was awful, full of fat and gristle and uneatable. This meal was understandably left. The lady from behind the bar asked if there was a problem as it had been left and upon seeing the food on the plate could understand why. She proceeded to take the plate of food away and spoke to the management. A full refund, no quibble was given without much prompting. Would probably try again but don't think they can cope with larger parties of people. Sad but couldn't let it spoil our evening.

Held our sons christening here in the function room upstairs. Lovely clean room. Toilet on same floor was handy for guests. Great food. Was relaxed about booking from beginning not demanding deposits, bond money etc like other establishments I had enquired to. Same relaxed service followed throughout whole function. My husband enjoyed the traditional ales. Would definitely be back as a customer or to use function room again.

The Horse and Jockey is now the best pub in town. The food is great and value for money. Paddy & Carol are great and the atmosphere is always amazing.

Seven of us booked for a Christmas meal and have got to say we have been meeting up every year for the last 10 years going to different venues and can honestly say this was the best meal by far. The food served came out hot and the portions were more than ample. Also plenty of parking round back on car park. Carol and the staff really looked after us well, we have all said we will definitely go again.

Located on a main road there is good parking. There is a public bar, restaurant and function room.The bar is a little bit unwelcoming as it seems well supported by locals and their children who don't want any 'outsiders' joining them.Food is served in the small restaurant. The menu is not extensive but there is a good choice including home made pies, burgers and fish and chips at reasonable prices. The portions were ample and well presented. The staff are friendly and attentive.

We went into the bar ,4 people in, no atmosphere, in restaurant room we looked at the menu nothing really inspiring on it, when food came it was no different to anywhere locally in a pub,just pub grub .we would rather eat in a proper restaurant like Casa Mia or in the many Indian restaurants with a dining experience. Why isn't there a good steak bar in Wednesbury like the Horse and Jockey used to be when it was a quality place years ago.The only place for a decent steak now is Miller and Carter chain but sadly not one in Wednesbury. we can only hope !

New decor, food not too good. Ok, it fills your belly but the portions are no where near what used to be served here or as tasty I can tell you! The menu was kinda uninteresting as well, just a smaller version of Wetherspoons up the road. It may sound that i'm being unfair in my review but this place used to be individual. 24oz T bone steaks, rack of Lamb, hotpots etc on the specials board and all VERY tasty. While I must admit the decor and cleanliness is a 100% improvement on the past place and you haven't got the rowdy football fans in the bar anymore, I feel the menu lets it down somewhat. Lets see what happens over the next few months eh? You gotta walk before you can run......

Firstly I would say my parents had the last two lamb shanks and my father raved about it. Unfortunately i had the beef which was incredibly tough. On a plus note the veg was all really good. Desert was a decent cheesecake but no crunchy base, again my father said the roly poly was superb. After reading such great reviews I have to say I was a little disappointed but will probably give it another try at a later date as I am sure this will have been just an off day or the wrong selection on my part. Had my dad reviewed this he would have followed suit with other reviews and given it a 5. I hope to do the same if I go back.

This is a lovely pub, the food tonight was great, home cooked but a good variety, my carbonara was delicious, my friend had liver and onions, hit the spot perfectly. The menu is very reasonably priced so ditch the M6 or Ikea Birmingham, 2 minutes away from junction 9 and so friendly, so if you need to eat good food at a good price, you know where to come. Highly recommended.

I ordered a cake a week in advance. I sent two e-mails in the title date "1.08.2023" with a photo for the cake. The ladies could not save the picture to the desktop. I sent the third time with the date "July 31, 2023" telling you that it was a mistake because my birthday is on August 1 and I have to pick up the cake a day earlier. I ordered a cake at 5pm. I came and the cake had the wrong picture. I spent 40 minutes there because the printer was out of order. I was under a lot of stress because I had a meeting at 6 pm and I didn't know if I could make it, if the printer would work and if there would be a cake. I paid £47. I finally got a cake, but the photo was small and the decoration was cut with a knife. I already knew I didn't have time to do anything with this cake. An hour later, the photo began to wrinkle. The next day it was very wrinkled. I called the store and the lady was not nice, she was talking at the same time as me. She said I could have said the cake would be kept overnight for the next day. I said that when ordering, but what kind of professional people should they be asking about such things. This lady did not want to help me at all. I was left with an ugly cake for a lot of money. no more your company. I have photos of the cake and will post them everywhere

Had to throw most of the order away, one pizza was so saturated with salt it made two of us eating it, throw up! Wish we’d not bothered, clearly something went wrong with the order when it was being prepared, and we suffered as a result. First time anything like this has ever happened with Valentinos - most disappointed
