Oak Tree in Bromsgrove

The food was really good and fast the staff were amazing couldn’t do more for us really friendly and good vibe. Thank you to the staff that served us on a busy Friday night

Went to the oak tree twice. The first time a week ago or so I went with my fiance, I ordered a peperoni pizza, staff came out to say sorry there's no peperoni. Then I went back yesterday with my fiance, this time I ordered steak and ribs, the chef come out and said there's no ribs! Not a good look and I wont be rushing back anytime soon.... Its a shame

I visited with my family for a celebration meal, the team were really friendly and the food was really well cooked and delicious.

Lovely family pub. We are regular guests to the Oak Tree and enjoy the environment and atmosphere! Stacey, Alisha and Emily have been great this evening - thank you guys :)!

Food was great and nice atmosphere. Great service thanks to Stacey, Eli, Emily, Caitlin and Demi

Lovely place after a 3 hour walk - service was great and food came out very quickly. Shame I had a small stomach otherwise would have finished the food. Shout out to Stacey, Eli, Emily, Caitlin and Demi for their great service for me. Would definitely come back again.

Good service. Average food from a modern characterless plastic pub.

The serving staff were very accommodating, helped us with an issue we had with the food. Very polite and lovely ladies, Stacey, Alisha and Demi thank you for you help.

We had a fantastic evening at the Oak Tree in Rednal this evening. The food was good and the staff where great. Stacey, Alisha and Demi provided great service and where very friendly, helpful and polite. We will be back again soon. Thank you.

Six of us. Called in for Sunday dinner. Worst Sunday dinner ive ever had . Veg was just about raw yorki pudding was dry as a crisp. Roasties were burnt black . Stuffing ball whas that hard that you couldn't bite through it . We all left most of the same food on our plates. So it wasn't just me.. surely whoever is in charge can see that this is not acceptable. And need to improve the standards. or get new staff . The only thing that was ok was the meat. Not be back in a rush..

Sally and Leah very friendly and helpful. The food was good, very nice. Service was reasonable, but it was a Monday evening so relatively quiet.

Nicely decorated but expensive for a drink.

Popped in for a Sunday dinner ,It was awful, it was warm not hot . The roasts were hard and overcooked. You had the tiniest bit of mash . Yorkshire pudding was hard and flat . The stuffing was rock hard . The food had no taste at all . I did tell the waitress but she didn’t seem at all interested. I won’t ever go there again .

Staff very attentive & fabulous food

The food was perfect couldn’t fault it. Staff were even better, the two girls at the bar were amazing, a credit to the pub. (Couldn’t get their names, but it was a girl with red hair and she was training the other girl with blonde hair.) They had a rough day but still had smiles on their faces. Thanks guys!

Brilliant as always, place has really been turned round 👏

Stacey & Alisha, who worked behind the bar were very polite & friendly. Efficient service and they even came over to us when we were at the billiards table to let us know are food was arriving.

My wife and I had our baby shower in the function room downstairs today, it was incredible! The staff couldn’t do enough and the food was beautiful. I’d recommend this for any party. Very reasonably priced too. Thank you

We enjoyed our food that was cooked exactly the way we asked for and the presentation was good.

Staff was lovely couldn’t fault them

large, modern pub with big tv screen. Clean and dog friendly. Service good, food (burger & chips) was very tasty & good value for money (NB not all drinks shown on menu under ‘ special deals’ are available- a bit annoying).

Me and my partner came here after receiving a 30% off voucher in the post. We'd been here before, but it'd been a couple of years. We really enjoyed the food! The service was fast and friendly, and the environment was warm and comforting. I'd say the food was reasonably priced and worked out even better having the discount. So I do recommend coming if you also get one through the post!!

Great food. Had two lovely ladies Stacey and Caitlin who served us. Will definitely be back x

A lovely place to meet with family and friends, enjoy a drink or 10 and have delicious food!

Food was good not everything on menu available and no sides eg coleslaw with burger but very friendly and helpful staff

Our first set of drinks came as we was eating our food which isn't great, when you ask the bar staff for something like getting your drink you ordered 30 mins ago a hard job. Food was nice but won't be coming again based on the service.

The food was delicious and the service was fantastic as always

Stacey and Alisha were lovely and provided excellent service

Had a lovely service, Stacey and Alisha made the visit comfortable for us from ordering to our food arriving. The ladies went out of their way to ensure we had all we needed including more drinks. Thank you again :)

Great service at the bar, thank you Stacey and Alisha.

Popped in for lunch after we had been doing some shopping. Not too busy so shown straight to a table. Ordering is via the bar or their app, but we ordered at the bar. Good menu with an interesting variety. I chose the steak and ale pie, and my wife had a chicken burger. We both started with a tomato soup, which was served with a generous helping of crusty bread. We did not have to wait long, and the meals were served promptly. Very enjoyable, and plenty to eat. Service was great and the staff were polite and helpful. Already looking forward to our next visit.

Menu very good and varied, food lovely, staff very friendly.

Really helpful and friendly staff. Visited for a family meal to celebrate a birthday. With several dogs (one very nervous) and a wheelchair user we find it difficult to go out! Staff accommodated us considerately, even moving us from our initial table when they could see that we would be better seated elsewhere. Decent food. Issue with one meal - very quickly replaced. Will definitely return for a more relaxed meal soon!

Always a lovely meal and the staff are always friendly and make you feel welcome thank you Stacey and John

Fabulous evening, many thanks for a great night

Lovely food, amazing staff and a calm, welcoming atmosphere ☺️

Gorgeous staff, Stacey Emily and Caitlyn looked after us so well despite it being a busy Saturday night, three absolute assets to the team! Amazing pub, our favourite for years!

We had a lovely time all staff were friendly approachable knowledgeable the food was lovely service 100% couldn’t fault our visit thank you to John stacey Leah and Emily for making our visit so good

Stacey and Alisha made all the family feel welcome

Lovely service from Stacey and Alisha. 100% recommended.

Really pleased with the service and food in this pub, it’s a great example of how a chain place can still be high quality and really pleasant environment. Special thanks to Stacey and Alisha who looked after our group really well.

Arrived on a Wednesday evening. Wasn’t busy but a few tables were busy. We went for drinks and staff were lovely and friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Nachos were nice too and a great range of drinks

good food for reasonable prices

The staff who were working were really kind sweet and positive the food was delicious and the pub was really cozy

We visted on 1st Feb, struggled to see a free table as multiple tables were in use for bigger parties. The Girls managed to squeeze us in and explained their was a wait on food. Bar staff and waiting staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble considering they were rushed off their feet. Definitely need more staff on days like Saturday 3 isn't enough.

Firstly, was advised we could order from table via QR code didn't work! Went to bar advised it wasn't working didn't even get a response and this person was the manager!! Didn't smile as miserable as sin. Other waitresses were friendly and attentive. Food was not the best, I had steak pie lacked seasoning tasteless overpriced for what it was, my partners food was Luke warm, and my adult children's meals were overdone. We went to play pool and the table in that area was dirty with previous glasses and a deconstructed bun for well over an hour. Shame because it's been a while since I've seen it this busy food and manager let it down.

Lovely food and really great feeling and atmosphere.

Stacey and Alisha was lovely and friendly, had good energy about them. Food was great, love that the doggy menu is up and running now. The dog approved too.

Staff excellent, Gina and Stacey went up and beyond, very good service, food was wholesome and tasty. The dog enjoyed his pigs in blankets!

Visited with the wife, my sister and brother in law. Staff were very friendly and efficient and the food was tasty and nicely cooked. We'll be back (and soon).

The make me move tables twice while deciding what to get. Seriously, if the table was not reserve I should be able to sit down.

Clean, pleasant and welcoming environment

Great place to eat. Friendly staff, Stacey and Mia. Lovely freshly cooked food and well presented.

Great experience. Fantastic food. Served by Stacey and Alisha

Food and service good. A pleasant hour. Stacey Alisha was very accommodating.

Lovely pub Stacey and alisha was outstanding the blonde haired woman I couldn't of faulted her not once she was outstanding my son is autistic had abit of a meltdown over his dinner crying and screaming she come over with colouring then toys !!! And then when we left even gave him 2 lollipops what a lovely lady can tell she is a mother herself such a motherly instinct made us as a family feel at ease to come here more often and not all pubs are understanding and patient with us thank you and overall the food was amazing aswell

Food took a very long time to arrive, no pre warning it would, food was fine but not worth the wait. Seating area was unbeatably hot and uncomfortable. We won’t be returning.

Brilliant customer service from Stacey ,Alisha and Mia food was lovely would highly recommend thanks

Always a pleasant experience. Good food, attentive staff and a great venue.

Great value food, pleasant family dining.

Great customer service and lovely staff thankyou stacey alisha and mia

Great evening for my daughters birthday Stacey and Alisha were really helpful and friendly thank you

Fabulous, special mention to Stacey, Alicia and Emily who made our visit very enjoyable :-)

This is a better than average, local cheap as chips pub chain type establishment so as long as you go in with that expectation you will be happy. The staff are always happy, helpful and friendly and offer brilliant service. We had particularly great service from Stacey & Alisha this evening Theres a good range of food on the menu and its all pretty tasty with decent portions. Its your basic pib food type offerings but theres plenty to choose from and a few more interesting bits too. Food comes out relatively quickly and all was piping hot and well cooked. If you have a pooch at home they are a dog friendly place with a doggy station for blankets, water bowls and treats however for those who dont want to eat around a 4 legged friend the dog friendly seating area is sufficiently seperate from the main restaurant area. Tables and seats are comfy and well spaced out so it doesnt feel cramped Overall its a great place to have on our doorstep and a favourite of ours when we want to pop out for a quick and easy dinner that we know we will enjoy but won't cost the earth Can reccommend: The ultimate burgers, mac and cheese bowls, chicken kebab and the thai veg curry. All some of our favs.

Very comfortable surroundings friendly and pleasant staff

Good service. Nice food Stacey and Alisha were very friendly.

Lovely location, great staff. Quick service. Tasty food. Shout out to Stacey for her smiles and attention during our meal

We were a party of 9 (6 adults, 1 teenager and 2 toddlers), it was a family get together meal as 3 members of the party were traveling home the next day after spending 2 weeks celebrating Christmas and New year. The three ladies that we had that took our order and served us with our food and beverages were absolutely amazing, there is a couple of picky eaters in the group. The ladies were pleasant and friendly and extremely helpful. The only downfall we had was that the chef didn't read the food order ticket correctly and made mistakes on 2 meals, we know the waitress had taken the order correctly as she read it back to us before we paid. The waitress even noticed the order was wrong when she brought it out and brought the food to us to show us and said she will get the meal cooked from fresh. Overall we had a lovely time together and were looked after well by the waitress's.

Very lovely venue and great food Wonderful service from our server Stacey

Lovely staff and tasty food - dessert was great too I definitely recommend the rocky road sundae ! - Stacey was lovely and wished me a happy birthday with candles and dessert too :)) Highly recommend this place - great service

Reserved a table and got seated pretty quickly. Food was great, wasn't given a kids menu, but it was fine. Pretty easy to order too and food came quick.

A very positive experience. The pub allowed dogs inside with water dishes available.

Stopped here for some late lunch after a long walk up the Lickey hills. The lady serving behind the bar who I assume was the manageress was friendly and welcoming. We sat in a booth with a little TV in (nice touch) and had the southern fried ultimate burger and the cowboy burger. Both 10/10, hot and fresh and said we would definitely return one day for a pint and a game of pool. Thank you :)

Lovely with the children. Helpful and friendly staff. Food portions worked well for us. A nice lunch with my grandsons have recommended it to the family and would visit again.

Come in for a drink Stacey and Alisha absolutely lovely

Living in Birmingham for many years I’ve been meaning to go to this place, essentially at the gateway to the Lickey Hills Country Park, for a long time but what with one thing and another had never got around to it. But last Monday, the day before New Year’s Eve, we’d been to the park in the morning, felt like lunch out rather than at home, and this seemed like the ideal opportunity. We arrived at 1pm, and considering it was lunchtime it was quite quiet — good, we thought, since that should have meant a minimal wait. My order was for a medium sirloin steak, with the rest of us ordering hunter’s chicken and fish bites and chips. Time passed. And passed. The pub started filling up, and time continued to pass. 45 minutes after placing our order I decided to go to the bar to see where our food was — not least because we’d almost finished our drinks. The barmaid went into the kitchen, and then came out with our food and took it to the table; after placing it down I asked if we might have some complementary drinks to eat with our food, since we’d just about (after getting through them as slowly as we could) finished the ones we’d bought on ordering. She said she’d have to speak to her manager, and went; whilst she said she was sorry for the wait, I didn’t get much of a sense of genuine regret from it, more that she knows that what you’re supposed to do in that situation is say sorry for the wait. It was then when I started eating my food that I gained an insight into perhaps why it had taken 45 minutes to cook, for my ‘medium’ steak was very much beyond medium, it was indeed far beyond what the steak levels of doneness meme has as ‘order the chicken you steak-hating b-yard’. It’s also a good job there was a proper steak knife because it was so tough to cut — and to chew — that I might have needed a power saw to cut it. I believe there were some mushrooms, though the brown spheres on the plate which I suspected of being mushrooms could have been more or less anything. And the chips had something of a background taste and odour of barbecue sauce about them, which was especially annoying because I really don’t like barbecue sauce. Fortunately for my co-diners their food they declared as being yeahwa’evs average. All the while I was getting my jaw exercise eating the steak I was thinking another glass of wine might have made it easier to go down; eventually after 20 minutes just as we were finishing our food those free drinks to make up for the 45 minute wait I asked for eventually arrived, which on the one hand, at least they eventually arrived, but on the other hand it did mean we ended up staying longer still than expected to drink them. When I was standing at the bar asking where my food was, the two people stood behind me said ‘oh dear, that doesn’t bode well, we’ve only just arrived’; as we were leaving I went over to their table and said ‘pro tip, if you’re going to ask for a free drink ask for it at half an hour if you want to stand a chance of it coming whilst you’ve still got food to eat’. ‘Oh dear, it looks like we’ve been waiting 35 minutes’, they replied, just as their food arrived.

Fantastic service from Stacey alisha and Emily chef needs to read his tickets but amazing in the end

Staff Stacey, Auisha, and Emily served us and we're very patient with us as a large group. Excellentser service.

I’m not going to speculate on the extent to which the people running and staffing this pub care about the experience they give customers for whom it will be the first, and perhaps only, pub they see on arriving at and leaving the park. I’m also not going to speculate on the staffing level, since there were three people serving at the bar on that quiet lunchtime. I expect food in a restaurant to take a little while to come, and indeed in a gastropub. I think the only other times my food has taken over 45 minutes to come has been the occasions I’ve eaten in Persian restaurants, because the nature of the food is that it takes a long time to cook. Whilst I’d expect a little bit of a wait at lunchtime, as I said, it really was not busy when we arrived, though it was getting busy as we left. It certainly does not take 45 minutes to cook a medium steak and chips, and frankly I suspect the hunter’s chicken was probably to a high degree pre-part-cooked rather than having been butchered there in the kitchen on order. Whilst I’m not going to deny I’m the sort of person who’ll never miss an opportunity to try to get a free drink, this is not free for the sake of trying to blag a freebie — any reasonable person expects to pace themself with their drink when they go to a pub for lunch if they’re not expecting to stay for a sesh, half the drink whilst waiting, half with their food. I think the request for a free drink both in recompense for the wait and to have a drink to eat with the food is a perfectly reasonable one, not a Karen move, so it was adding insult to injury that it didn’t come until we’d nearly finished our food. In short, don’t go there to eat; if you’ve spent a morning or afternoon in the park and want to eat out straight afterwards, get Google Maps out and find a nearby alternative.

Great pub, dog friendly, great food, good prices, good pints. Was served by Stacey very polite, and Alisha brought my food over again very friendly!!

Lovely friendly staff ( Stacey and Alisha) food is amazing and quick service. Really good value for money. We’ve been coming here for a while now and we have never had a bad meal, would highly recommended

An excellent meal from the festive menu. Lovely freshly made tomato soup, followed by a turkey dinner with all the trimmings and a nice dessert. From the off, we were made very welcome (we had already reserved our table in October). Our host was Sophie and she greeted us with a smile taking us directly to our table. Every where was clean and well presented and the waiting staff couldn't do enough for us, nothing was too much trouble. Although I chose the tomato soup as my starter my wife had the pate, which was equally just as tasty and enjoyable. The main had a variety of vegetables, succulent turkey (not over cooked & dry) and the biggest Yorkshire pud (lovely & crispy). I had ice cream for dessert but the missus had christmas pudding with custard, which she couldn't fault. Since this pub has changed hands it has improved a lot. The service, the food the decor. If you are in the area and you fancy some nice pub grub and a pint give the Oak Tree a go. Thank you again Sophie for being a great host.

Breakfast with the Grinch great fun lovely food

I went today and food was absolutely amazing people were so kind the atmosphere was clean and food come out so quick

Worst meal in terms of value ever.Cheap fries supposed to be loaded bit of Barbecue Sauce and cheese was processed which cover only a handful of chips.Better value in local chippie.Chicken pieces amounted to 6 or 7 from Iceland I guess No shocking value did give comments to waitress who just smiled and walked off

Just had a lovely Christmas dinner here today, Sally and the staff are all amazing and really friendly, the food was delicious and will definitely be returning, thank you again 😀

Christmas day dinner. Excellent food, staff and atmosphere. Very organised and did not feel overcrowded as other places on Christmas day have been in the past. 2 hours at table which was adequate as food was delivered in a timely manner. Would book again for Christmas day.

Arrived early and table was ready and a great view too food was amazing just enough on the plates staff where so helpful asking if we wanted anything else can not fault it at all definitely will book up for next year thanks for a lovely meal and day

The food and Service was brilliant couldn’t ask for anything more very impressive will book up again next year for sure Sorry forgot to take photos Christmas dinner

Pub is clean. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Food is always excellent, hot and you don’t have long wait for it. I come frequently

Went to this pub to celebrate my grandaughters 17th birthday. Waited 1hr45mins for our meal was sparse of food, cold and also missing food items. Had to ask for gravy, pigs in blankets & missing roast potatoes. Staff very dismissive not helpful. Will not be returning.

We had a party of 20 of us and the staff couldn’t have done more for us. All food was brought out quickly, Stacey and Alisha were friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our party a great time.

Really lovely food. Friendly staff. They were Stacey Mimi Sally and Jan were great
