My husband and I went here for lunch today we both had Chicken schnitzel caesaer salad. Which was basically a chicken escalope. The breadcrumbs on it were so thick you couldn't taste the chicken. When we were seated no one asked if we had any allergies but they were asking others who came in. Will definitely not be going there again for food. Certainly overpriced at £15.99 for a small bowl of lettuce ,croutons and one over dry piece of bacon plus chicken.

Went for late Sunday afternoon lunch, for the price of the food it was appalling, different quantity of food on each plate, hardly any meat considering there was supposed to be pork, turkey and beef, what was there was full of fat. Beef appeared boiled not roasted. Childrens meals were bigger than adults and all tepid in temperature. When asked if food was OK we said no and the waitress just laughed and walked off. When attempted to address with the manager we were informed she had finished her shift. Disgusting and will not be returning.

Booked a table on line for 9 pm, received confirmation and arrived at 8.50 and told kitchen was closed. I explained and showed them a copy of my confirmation but frankly the attitude of the staff was they couldn’t care less, I used to use this pub quite regularly over the years with family and friends but won’t bother in future.

Had a fantastic visit to The Old Irish Harp! The food and service were absolutely first class. Special shoutout to Ryan, Nicky, Emily and Steve the chief all diligent, very hard working and incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our time there. The fish and chips, as well as the scampi, come highly recommended — both were cooked to perfection. The venue itself has a great atmosphere, very welcoming and friendly, and it’s even dog friendly, which is a big bonus. Highly recommend for a relaxed meal or a drink with friends (and your four-legged companions)!

Went there today with a reservation. Ordered food and a drink, sat down 45 minutes later following other customers being seated and served food asked bar staff who went to get our plate of stone cold food that I assume was sat around for an unknown amount of time and was surprised when I wasn't happy with the poor service and worse food. Don't bother the place is rank.

I actually visited 17/4 in friends (first time in 2-3 years after a poor experience). It was so good, I told y husband and we went on the 21st. Firstly the greeting is warm and friendly by EVERY member of staff.A very warm welcome like they are genuinely pleased to see you. They bring the menu and ask if you’d like to order drinks, which they bring and leave you just the right amount of time to peruse the menu. The gentleman who took our orders on both occasions, who I think is the front of house manager, is so friendly and ready to give advice and recommendations on the food. I had the whitebait and the steak and ale pie, and the signature triple layer pie on the previous visit. My husband had the sticky chicken wings and the pie - all were sensational. The food arrived quickly on both occasions and was piping hot. We’re offered sauces, vinegars, etc and asked if there was anything else we needed. Honestly you have a great, friendly team in there who obviously enjoy working there and it shows. I would give them ten stars if I could.And yes we left a tip on both occasions.

This is one of the worst experiences I've had in my local area. Had a flyer through my door advertising a pie offer which Lead us to give it a go . My food was below average, the waitress dumped an overflowing pint on the table when I was mid way through eating my meal! Had to use all of the napkins to clean up with no apology and no replacements. She had a terrible attitude! The kids menu was served with a colouring in section but with no crayons. Worst of all the place is filthy!! Food allover the walls! Discusting! Better food and drink close by. Avoid this place it's filthy and unwelcoming

Lovely friendly service but Sunday Lunch 3 meat roast wasn't particularly good, beef had little flavour, tiny piece of pork and turkey dry and stringy. 2 big undercooked parsnips and 2 tiny roast potatoes plus a carrot and tiny amount of kale, green beans (2) and peas, meal wasn't very hot but on the plus side a huge Yorkshire pudding and a small piece of crackling were both lovely. Frankly the Toby Carvery roast dinners cost less and taste better ! Excellent service but the food let's it down.

Saturday 12th April 12 45pm After ordering our meals, we waited 90 minutes for starters to arrive during that time the waitress came to ask us again what food we had ordered!!!! Clearly we had been overlooked. The mixed grill was extremely disappointing without any of the expected trimmings. As was the sirloin steak. The plates on which our three main meals were served were hot, but unfortunately the food was far from hot. These meals, were nowhere near worth the money we paid. Added to this we were forced to asked for drinks several times, before they were brought the table. I had already been told that, The Irish Harp was not now the lovely welcoming pub it once was. I should have been warned and stayed away. There are many other places to eat out in Aldridge, offering far better service, and value. I'm sorry to say, that will now be my advice to others.

Not the best experience. Served my £10.25 glass of rose in a tumbler as no wine glasses. When I expressed my disappointment, I was asked “had I seen how busy it was outside”. Service very slow on the food. One dish arrived with nothing in the gravy pot. Seems the chef and the waitress hadn’t noticed it was empty before serving. Card on table advertised drinks 10% discount when ordering on the app, trouble is the app doesn’t work. Won’t be rushing back.

Havnt been here for a long time and unfortunately won't be going again. Firstly there is a really strong smell of drains in the restaurant. Secondly i thought the size of the meals were quite small and average quality. My husband had the lamb and small pie and there were 4 bite size peices of lamb and the smallest pie ever, with a small amount of potatoes. I had lasgne that was an odd taste with burnt garlic bread and 2 cherry tomatoes and 1 piece of lettuce.We also found service was bad, my husband had to go up to order drinks at the bar as no staff came around the area everyone was eating unless they were bringing food. The plates were left for so long I ended up asking for a desert menu just to get someone to the table, to clear the plates, we could see 2 staff tidying the box of vinegar and sauce and chatting whilst waiting for our plates to be cleared, surely clear plates before doing this. We didn't even get one of these boxes with our meal. Finally we got fed up of waiting as no one came back so gave up on a desert and had to go to the bar to pay. Even that took ages. Very disappointed.

Visited on 15th March. Started with a cappuccino which was horrible, just coloured water. I sent this back and changed this for a hot chocolate. Again this wasn't good, very weak and looked and tasted like coloured water. With the price of the drinks I think the pub should invest in a new machine! The menu was new which was ok, but had limited choice compared to the old menu. The fish & chips and burgers were good but myself & daughter didn't particularly like the Hunters Chicken Schnitzel mainly due to the cheese sauce and soggy rocket salad. The best part of the meal was the puddings. All I can say good job there was 30% off the main meals otherwise I would've felt like we were robbed. The Irish Harp is a lovely place but it definitely needs a few tweaks before we visit again.

For almost £18(!) for my Fish and Chips, I asked for my peas to be changed to beans as peas give me digestive issues. I was told 'you can't change it now' by the waitress with a stern look on her face, proceeded with 'you can change it to beans, but you'll have to pay for it' to which we unwillingly said 'okay that's fine', to which she responded with 'you'll have to go and order it at the bar'. Okay. So, after digging into our food which was already lukewarm on a hot day (can you believe it?), we're going to go to the bar to order a lukewarm pot of beans when it took us 15 minutes to be served 2 drinks? Lovely outdoor area, but that's about it. Rude staff, slow service and poor customer service. After being spoken to the way we were, we anxiously ate our food and hurried off the site. What a waste of our hard-earned £60, to just be disrespected. If you wish to make ANY amendment considering how expensive the food is in regards to the location (it's not Central London is it?), not to mention it's 2025 when intolerances and allergies are more prevalent than ever, this isn't the place to go. A very backwards thinking establishment. If the waitress spoke to us the way she did, God knows what the management are like. Don't go.

Our waitress was lovely and engaging from start to finish and the tall young barman was also very professional and welcoming. But they were the only good things. The other staff we saw going in and out of through the restaurant were dishevelled. They looked like they could do with a good wash and press as well as their clothes! They looked like food came in good time, but it was poorly presented, it lacked card and attention. The calamari was over cooked. The lasagne, was just warm enough to be OK but usually they come out piping hot. (The dish was!?!) The ‘garlic’ bread was barely garlicky and the green salad was a pile of rocket dumped on the plate, with a couple of little gem leaves thrown on the top. The lasagne dish had quite clearly had cheese thrown on the top, put under the grill then served up without care. (Burnt bits of cheese surrounded the lasagne.) A real shame as the taste was quite nice. More care and attention is needs all round. We were cold most of the evening as there seemed to be a cold draft from both directions.

Upon arrival we had a lovely warm welcome by Emily, the Assistant Manager and then throughout the meal we were looked after by Millie, who was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious - we couldn’t fault it. Our starters, mains and puddings were all stunning. To provide exceptional service as well as the perfect meal on this scale (busy Xmas day - the place was full of families) is incredible. Thavk you to all at the Irish Harp for giving us a wonderful Xmas day lunch. You did a brilliant job.
