Ivy House in South Staffordshire

Fantastic food , great staff ,did have to wait a bit longer between courses but I'd rather that than be rushed . Would recommend 👌 👍 👏

We ate here for the first time last week and the food is amazing!!! We had the three course lunch and all dishes were delicious. The staff were also really friendly. We will definitely be back again soon.

1st time I have ever been in this place, I popped in yesterday for a couple of pints and I absolutely loved it, the Mansfield smooth was superb pint, loved everything about this place and I shall definitely be returning. Really great pub to find.

First time eating here, can't fault it at all. Food from the Sunday menu was delicious(i had the crispy belly pork) and all reasonably priced. We'll definitely come again.

There were 4 of us booked in for 8.30. We were called and told that we could only order from the English menu until 8 pm..ummm. we agreed to change our booking, however, when we arrived there was confusion about our seating area. We eventually got our table, ordered our food which came in a reasonable time. The Indian mixed grill was great, and the short rib was well cooked, both looked nice. My friend had lasagne which was average. I ordered a sweet chicken sizzler which didn't sizzle and looked pale and unappealing. The taste was average, the look was off putting as there was no colour in it.

I do love this little gem. Never had tried the Sunday roast before and was not disappointed. It absolutely gorgeous. It was cooked to perfection and so tasty.

Probably the best pub meal I've had, there was 14 of us and everyone enjoyed their meal. Great service while friendly and welcoming.

Met with friends for lunch. Menu is amazing,making choosing hard with all the delicious options. Service was very good,no rushing and time to have our drinks before eating. Food was delicious,piping hot and portion size amazing. I'd suggest paying extra for the handmade chips....omg they are gorgeous. We also had desserts which again are amazing. Staff are pleasant and helpful. Prices are reasonable and well worth it. First visit here for me today and already booked in again. Thank you

Excellent authentic Curry in a proper pub with a friendly atmosphere

Loved our visit here. The waitress was friendly and welcoming. My boyfriend enjoyed his Tomahawk steak, it was cooked just how he asked and my lamb shank was beautifully tender. We’ll be visiting again ❤️

After having a couple of takeaway Sunday lunches from here and being very impressed, we thought that we would visit to sample their daytime menu And we are glad that we did, my wifes' chicken in BBQ sauce with cheese and bacon was lovely, i had the steak and ale pie, we both upgraded to the home made chips, and it proved to be a good choice, everything was first class, and my wife declared the gravy that came with my pie was the best she had ever tasted I also had a pint of the Hobgoblin pale ale which was superb Service was excellent and with the offer of 2-1 on main meals on a Tuesday the bill came to £24 with the drinks All in all a lovely meal, lovely beer and great service we will be sure to try again thank you

A regular haunt for us. They staff are always welcoming and are particularly lovely to my aging parents. Service is always good. As is the food. We use the place for weekday lunches and don't need to book in advance. Great place.

I attended a funeral lunch today with my husband and the chef heard that I needed a gluten free diet. He personally came to the table to tell me that he would prepare a gf plate of food for me. I told him not to go to any trouble but 10 mins later was presented with the most amazing BBQ wings, pizza toasties and mushrooms on toast. My husband shook his hand and I cannot thank that lovely chef and the staff enough. Thank you so so much.

Been here three times now, had the pub menu and the Indian menu. Food has been amazing each visit. Staff are great. Highly recommend.

Booked a table a few weeks ago for tonight. When we arrived we were seated, not in the main restaurant but upstairs at a high table that we found very uncomfortable. We asked for an alternative table but was told none were available. Service was very slow, and we had to constantly go and find staff to chase everything. After our main courses we waited an age for the dessert menu, and again we had to chase it. Once we got it and eventually ordered desserts, we were told the oven was off so we couldn't have what we had chosen. The food was very good, however the service was very poor. So all in all a bit disappointing.

Very excellent value for money...Tina and Hasan excellent service

My first time at the Ivy House and I would definitely recommend it!

Excellent food and service, highly recommend!!

Very nice quaint pub Restaurant very good for food Staff very polite Plenty of car parking spaces Really enjoyed our silver anniversary Going again tonight. Cannot keep away

This was Sunday lunch takeaway its our second time ordering, within 20 minutes our food arrives, very well packaged and ready to plate up , Great sunny lunch will 100% be ordering again 😋

I came here with my family on recommendation from a friend. A young lady with a pierced tongue served us (didn't get a name) and she was professional and friendly at all times . The food was excellent,fresh and piping hot. It has a good choice on the menu. Will definitely 💯 it to friends.

First time here and definitely won't be the last. The landlady Tina and her staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The service was excellent, the food was plentiful, fresh and piping hot.

from start to finish the service was amazing along with the food.. value for money

Lovely food friendly helpful staff

My husband and our friend had Gammon, it was over cooked, dry and crispy , my friend , his wife ,and I had the sweet chilli Chicken Sizzler, it came nothing like it was on the menu, only 2 slices of chilli , raw onion in with fried onions, it wasn’t sizzling at all , we were told it had to settle as the smoke from them would cause the fire alarms to go off !! And it was against health and safety to walk through restaurant with them , due to small children, which there was only a small child in a high chair ! My friend asked for hers to be taken back to be heated again, we told the waitress, they shouldn’t be on the menu if they can’t be served as a sizzler . The waitress’s attitude throughout, was horrible, bombastic, the girl serving drinks , needed to smile , she was miserable! The pub also could with a much needed refurb . We definitely won’t be going back and we won’t recommend the ivy house !!

Nice food. Well priced lunch time menu . Well worth a visit. Will be going again.

I left a glowing Xmas review. But we won't be back after today. We ordered a plant based roast to be told there was non after twenty minutes, but a non discrit faux chicken burger was offered. We had to wait for 50 minutes for our meal. We were sat in what l call the corridor to the bar although there was room in the main room. While we were be there, a procession of just eat guys waiting for their orders kept appearing. It felt as if we were in a Chinese takeaway. So a Sunday lunch was a washout,no ambience. Thanks for your past meals but so long.

Great night out with friends and great food too

Excellent food. Would highly recommend

An excellent experience all round. Food was delicious, a relaxed, friendly atmosphere in a beautiful setting and special thanks to Hassan for providing first class service.

Cosy little place with an old'e world feel about it. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and only too happy to help. I have coeliac disease, so have to eat gluten free food, there's several options on the menu for me to choose from, I opted for the belly pork which was delicious. Prices are reasonable, possibly not the cheapest around, but then the quality of the food on offer is good, and the portion sizes seem generous. Free parking with ample spaces, and a great view out over the fields which can be enjoyed from the beer garden. All in all a great place to go for a meal out, will definitely be returning.

JUNE 2024 update. Went for a lovely meal with husband, easy to walk to from Bloxwich, plenty of parking spaces though if you're in a car, and a lovely beer garden with views over the fields. Great place to have lunch or dinner. Nice menu to choose from with a good selection of vegetarian options, I had scampi and homemade chips with garden peas and salad, scampi was delicious, peas a little hard but ok. Husband had the beef, cheese and bacon burger with homemade chips and salad. TV screen in restaurant section showing football for anyone interested. It was pretty quiet and easy to get a table just walking in. Staff lovely. A nice pub to visit. Definitely recommend. November 2022. A group of 15 us had lunch today, sent our food choices previously, all good, came out hot, well cooked and together, can't fault it. Nice staff. Lovely local pub. November 2023 update, another big group lunch today, orders sent in before day. After waiting for a latecomer for a good while all meals came out quickly and hot, waitress was friendly and there was no rush for us to eat quickly even though we'd started later than planned. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food, I personally would have had my liver cooked for less time and some pieces were rather hard, but it was tasty with lovely onion gravy and mash. My apple pie and cream was delicious. Unfortunately, the brownie ordered by a friend was very hard, maybe, as the waitress explained because they were gluten free or because it had cooled while waiting for extra custard, or just overcooked, I'm not sure. Overall, a nice lunch out in good company.

Customer service is non existent, ordered a steak medium rare, it came medium/well. Sent it back . Manger came out and told me the chef said I was wrong it was medium/rare. As the son of. “Stockman” I grew up around meat and steaks and have been brought up how a steak should be cooked. On the plus side it was a nice cut, just over cooked by two temperatures

Visited Care Home opposite. Came here for a swift Pint. Well kept nice beer. Timothy Taylor, Boltmaker

Lovely food , friendly and attentive staff , Jas the chef did a great job , Grace , Hassan , Demi and the team were great,this was a really pleasant surprise

Me and my friends enjoyed a bottomless brunch yesterday. Can't rate it enough, the food was delicious and we had to take lots home. Cocktails were amazing, not watered down like on other "bottomless brunches". Great value for money, will definitely be back

Food is absolutely gorgeous from here and staff go above and beyond make sure everything is perfect during your visit..

Came for tea as a family pub was bust but staff accommodated us , member of staff came over and took our drinks order , then came over and took our food order , my daughter had the lasagne which came with a little side salad and garlic bread , the comment she made was it was lovely and cheesy , my husband had the surf and turf and asked for his steak to be cooked rare , he said it was the best steak he had eaten in a long time , I myself went for the new jersey chicken which was to die for it was so tasty it was a chicken beast with bacon and cheese and pulled pork with bbq sauce it was so tasty, don't be put off with the petty comments about the food we have been a few times now and food been delicious and staff are so friendly well done team

Very good food. The curries are amazing. Limited cask ale,but what they have is well kept. Pleasant atmosphere and good beer garden.

Best beer Garden in the local area.. love the cows and view across the field's

The food was great I had a chicken madras with a side of pilau rice. I can't fault it

They organised a beautiful hot and cold buffet for my Father's wake. Tina was wonderful, she made organising everything so easy. The setting is stunning with beautiful views over the fields. Excellent food quality, fantastic service from girls in the bar and restaurant, they really helped to bring some joy to a very sad day. We can't recommend this place enough. Thank you ❤️

First time here , went for Sunday lunch will definitely be going back it was stunning .

Regular meal out for us here, just a really nice place with excellent food at a good price. Hassan and the rest of the staff always make us feel welcome and looked after with fantastic service as well.

That's got to be the best fish and chips I have had besides at the sea side 😋

Went for a lite bite Thursday not impressed after ordering cod chips and peas was informed they were fries not chips 😞 so reordered lasagne and garlic bread so disappointed the tiniest lasagne and 2 small pieces of bread then my friends meal came out with cheese and potato pie and chips when I said about the chips the waiter said they are fries😳which would have been on my first order🙄he did bring me a dish to make up for the mistake maybe retrain him then onto dessert small slice of dry brownie wont be revisting first and last time

Absolutely fantastic and would highly recommend staff were kind friendly food was delicious Thank you ❤️

Very nice Food and service first time going since new ownership definitely will return and recommend for others to try it too.

Went for lunch after work had the giant Yorkshire with sausages and mash and peas and gravy,it was amazing not tight on the portion size at all and was really tasty,washed down with a pint.Service was great and I didn't have to wait long at all for my meal.Great work guys keep it up 👍

Had a great meal with my partner. Food was absolutely delicious

This was quite a quaint little place for a meal as we were staying in Walsall. Very cosy food was good, nice friendly service. Not expensive.

Food was good, had completely run out of the on tap cocktails, and in view of pre booked special occasion this was poor. Also the staff had no personality at all, and really felt they didn't want to be there, which was a shame as this could have been a 5 star otherwise There were 13 of us, and spent well, but may not revisit due to miserable staff.

We ate early and the dining room was very quiet, We were welcomed and shown to our reserved table by a friendly polite waitress , our food , chosen from the English menu was served quickly and we both commented that it was delicious, (new jersey chicken with homemade fries,) all together a very pleasant dining experience .

This place I'd say was average as food was plentiful; though not the best of quality & incorrect order. The spinach/ricotta cannelloni was greasy; though came with lil salad and garlic bread for £11.99. The feta/beetroot tortellini with no garlic bread nor salad would have been £12.99?? Why?? The beef/bacon burger which was supposed to be bacon/cheese- burger was plenty tall, but onion rings were pale and gooey. It did come with salad £12.99. My latte was small and £3.25. The cider was £5.60. Our wait was overly excessive especially since there was few guests. My drink was done long before food arrived; and there were no syrups for hot beverages. The tables were clean, but chairs and benches were stained and crumb -laden. We probably wouldn't choose a repeat visit sadly. It was £33.83.

Who puts Couscous and Red & Yellow Peppers with a Sunday Dinner. Wish i could have rated it lower

Great choice of both English and Indian food. Good sized portions.

The hubby surprised me with lunch in here, we had starters and then scampi and the mushroom risotto. The starters were a tiny portion and when we queried it with the waitress they had thought we were having the specials lunch (although we specifically ordered of the main menu) The waitress did apologise and we got an extra portion with the mains ! When the mains arrived ( bearing in mind you have to pay an extra £1.99 if you want homemade chips not frozen) it was ok-see pictures, the scampi was just a frozen scampi nothing amazing nothing terrible. BUT the mushroom risotto was not good at all it tasted like boiled rice with a tin of condensed mushroom soup in, it was grey and the mushrooms were non existent. I ate some of it as it was so expensive but it wouldn’t be something I would recommend.

Visit this pub/restaurant it has a friendly atmosphere . service, which was good. We had curry, which was very good made for the English pallette, the price was reasonable

Amazing food, we ordered from the curry menu, absolutely beautiful chicken, great pub, will definitely be going again 👌

Brilliant atmosphere great service highly recommended

Hardly any staff so had long waiting times even though hardly any customers. Food was great and portions were big.

Outstanding service and food. Booked for a wake for 28 people, all 3 courses served quickly. Food was hot, good portion size and all guests compliment their meals. Hight recommended

Thanks for the superb sandwiches,hot food tea coffee you laid on for our much loved Aunties funeral wake.

This pub is everything a pub should be. The staff are friendly and the food is excellent. The curries are on par with the best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to. Last night my husband and I decided on steak for a change. It was as good if not better than Miller and Carter. Their chunky home cooked chips are amazing!

One of our favourite places to visit. Staff are warm, welcoming, food is really good. Nice place to go and hang out. Drinks, food, entertainment some nights. Popular.

Spur of the moment decision to go out for tea , phoned the pub and got a table reservation for myself , my hubby and my daughter. When we got there was shown to our table the waiter came over and took our drinks order. Then he came back and took our food order , I had a chicken pakora starter and they was the best I have tasted the flavour was delicious and piping hot , the mains then came out I had chicken tikka massala , chips , naan bread and my hubby had the tandoori mixed grill with massala chips , daughter just had Cheesy chips and cheesy garlic bread . The food was piping hot and delicious the chips are homemade not frozen total bill was £63 for 3 of us including drinks will definitely go here again and try something else

Lovely food,, great lunchtime menu at a fab price, waitress was lovely and friendly,, will definitely return

Only popped in for a Sunday afternoon drink but plenty of parking and seating in the bar. We got served quickly

Nice local pub with friendly staff. Just drinks on this occasion, but has a good range of food choices at reasonable prices.

Christmas lunch absolutely outstanding.

Very friendly and dogs allowed. Sizzler brilliant but prawn starter disappointing. Would visit again

Food is lovely-staff very friendly-we always enjoy our meals.

5 of us came tonight roast dinner beef was so nice best we had out in long time nice hot beef cooked just right staff made us wecome and smile all the time we will be back

We had a fantastic meal from the Indian menu, we had a table for four people, staff were very welcoming as always, especially Sam, India and Grace, would recommend lunch and evening menu's

Good friendly service, good food and cheap as chips.

We heard it was taken over so thought we would try it again. Glad we did the atmosphere was good and it was lovely and warm in there. We had the Sunday roast and was not disappointed. I had Turkey and the others had Beef and we all enjoyed the meal. Service was good and food was hot didnt keep us waiting for to long. We will definitely go back so glad we decided to go back now theres new owners.

Christmas party for large number of people. Food and service excellent, thank Sammi for ensuring all food choices were correct. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves

Indian food was best I have had in a long while.

Great Indian food with good service and a nice atmosphere fast becoming my go to place on Fridays after work to start the weekend.

Amazing place, nice food and the thatchers is always good their. Nice traditional pub

Not as good when Hilary was in charge

Have been going here for a while...its changed hands...I asked for a child's Sunday lunch as I don't have a big appetite..was refused said only for under 16s!!! So had the adults and left half ..what a waste...no atmosphere..only one person working as the girls were busy putting up Christmas decorations...don't think I'll be going again..

First time here and was dubious regarding the extensive menu but I was not disappointed, the food was faultless and tasty, the service, exceptional. Will be back soon

My first time here I attended a wake it's a nice place thanks for looking after us all

Excellent food. Menu is extensive. We have tried the superb Indian food and the traditional English food. They are always freshly prepared with fresh ingredients and piping hot. The staff are lovely, very friendly and happy to help. They do different deals on different nights, so it’s worth checking them out before you book. Highly recommend.

A really lovely evening at the New Ivy House. Despite living close we had never been here before, but we’ll definitely be going again. The food was really good and the service friendly. We didn’t feel rushed and were able to enjoy the atmosphere.

I am Coeliac, I specifically called to check that Gluten Free chips were going to be available, as even though advertised they were not available on a previous visit. So tonight I ordered the chips and was advised that the fryer might have been used for gluten containing foods. This is just unacceptable, surely the fryer should be labelled appropriately. I do wonder if all other precautions are followed for allergies in general. So I will not be visiting again as it spoiled my night, my meal was not nice with bland rice 😡

Lovely little pub, friendly staff and the food is beautiful - really reasonable price too for the quality of the food

Still Delicious food and such a friendly atmosphere, ill definitely return as soon as I can, many thanks to Demi looking after us, it made it even more lovely

Went in at lunch time, served quickly, food was beautiful, we had the 2 course for £9.99 good value, Demi served us and was lovely and very polite, got the little one crayon’s to colour while we waited.

Dropped in Thursday lunch time. Got a table and bought the menus. A nice varied menu. Staff were lovely and very helpful. The food came, piping hot was lovely cooked and presented well. Will definitely be returning

The portions are large, this is the place to eat if you have a good appetite. I had the pork belly it was slightly over cooked but still very good, my wife had a beef sizzler which was also very good. The staff were all very attentive especially Grace.

Tasty!!Me and my partner went for the Indian menu,we had the sharing platter,and wow it was amazing the food was cooked fresh it was hot and probably one of the best Indians round and the price only £19.95 and we was full.Shame no room for dessert as they looked really tasty,.Staff are friendly and welcoming. Definitely be back 👍

Nice food, but the layout of the pub is not great and has a very low ceiling in the bar. Not great for tall people

Great food and great views of the farmers fields. You may get lucky if the cows come to say hello

Haven’t been here in a while, but it was just as lovely as before. Tina and her staff are always friendly, and food and drinks are spot on. We won’t be leaving it so long till we visit again. Thanks for a lovely night! 😁

Great food at a good price in a very pleasant beer garden on a warm late summer night

To rowdy, expected better food.

Shame because I’ve heard good reviews.☹️

Bland tasteless food. Beef Sunday lunch. Roast potatoes and stuffing definitely from the freezer. Veg undercooked. Gravy tasteless. Would not recommend to anyone.
