Speed the Plough in Wychavon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I was there on the relaunch night with the lovely new people running the pub. What a great atmosphere and lovely service. Been back twice since. Good selection of drinks and my wallet is still intact!

Well I wish I wasn't writing this review but I must as a health and safety piont of view . Saturday 1st March 2024 my partner and I were in there area visiting old haunts . It's was a busy afternoon of locals thought great to see a local still being used .. We were there for bout hour in that time 3 guys of mid 20s were messing about at the bar .. but then the person on the bar decide to spray Air freshners at the guys .. which set of an asthma attack on my partner .. we had to leave on leaving the bar man was collecting our glasses and I did piont out his actions on spraying airfreshner in a confined space was irresponsible.. and we were having to leave because of that. His answer was I only sprayed a bit .. Really .. Childish behaviour .. is not the way to run a pub .. Since this happened on Saturday afternoon the rest of our day was spent recovering for my partner.

Warm, friendly and welcoming. Definitely return. We only popped in for a drink

Great local pub, dropped by on my journey 👌

Brilliant pub, just wish you could get some lunch there....

Traditional pub, lively and friendly. Good quality beer.

Good ales and beers. Good log burner. Great seating outside on a summers day near the fields

Like the look of this pub good to watch sport

Fantastic pub. We came in from the nearby canal and the only reason we can’t give a higher rating for food is that the kitchen was closed. That said, a friendly local recommended an alternative and even went as far as to run us up the road so we get an evening meal. First class

Really nice beer, great service. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere

Nice friendly pub, best pints I’ve had in years. Best pints in Droitwich. Definitely if you want a quality drink at a good price then this is the place I’d recommend.

Good beer and great landlord very friendly

Went in here on a weds after reading the reviews beer was good but no food served

One thing about this pub. It has the biggest beer garden situated in a field. Great place to go and reasonable prices and good choice of beers lager and cider

Nice place, staff were friendly, beer was good. Good size beer garden. Enjoyed my visit.

Best pub in the village. 60p a pint cheaper than the bridge and also dog friendly.

Only called for in for 1 whilst out on our bikes but stayed for 2 as it was such a lovely atmosphere. Lucky residents having a great pub with lovely landlord in their village. 👍

Free Pool Table and good vibes.

Really welcoming, lovely log fire and friendly staff. We will definitely return!

Lovely homely pub. Atmosphere is great and there's a lovely log burning stove at the back to warm you up Highly recommend

Traditional pub, well kept wye valley beers, what's not to like :-)

Great manager good place to chill for a beer and food

Nice place a little off the canal.

Friendly staff, excellent real ale, free pool table in a lovely outdoor area that is heated.

Great pub and you can take your dog the staff are very friendly

Lovely country location, great selection of beers and wines and friendly staff - what's not to like??

Very good Cavery and mondays its £5, must book a day before as it's super popular, kids will live it and grandparents too

New manager is brilliant finally a true landlord running the show

Lovely village pub, great food, friendly atmosphere, great welcome!

Great pub, with home cooking and real ales .

Ignore the TripAdvisor status that it's closed! New management, lunch and dinner served daily. Lovely couple run it, top pub grub and very friendly with marvellous country views.

Great atmosphere and a lovely pint of Carling.

So disappointed. The front door was locked but no sign to tell visitors to go round the back. Luckily a local man, who was passing by, pointed us in the right direction. The pub seemed as if it was closed. The table was sticky and the carpet hadn't been hoovered. There was a wood burning stove but it didn't really make much impression on the large bar area. Definitely no lunch on offer, so we left after a pint of HPA, which was very good. Such a shame because we had been led to believe there would be a roaring fire and a lovely lunch on offer.

Best pub of the two and cheaper too.

Great Pub, ok thay don't do food but great beer , lovely staff and the locals are very friendly, I thougherly recommend it

This has been recently refurbished.. It has a nice outdoor seating area with a bar overlooking the fields. The staff and locals are very friendly.. Highly recommended..

Turned up here, May Bank holiday. Hoping to have a nice pie, like other reviews had reported. No food available, they don't serve food anymore. Beer was good. A nice old pub that could be great, shame it's going to waste.

Needs work.... not what I consider a country pub. But had potential to be really good. As to be fair the outside / uncover area is vast and could be great in the summer

I.went to.place on Sunday and it was closed .had few friends they were disappointed.

Friendly staff and local people, always feel welcome

Good local pub and the town was the friendliest place I've been and this definitely extends to this pub. Went with a group of friends during our canal holiday, we all like to try different beers which was great because they had an interesting German. The only drawback was being hungry I hoped to order food but the kitchen wasn't open at the time but the owner kindly offered to see if they would start early, which I declined. Very good pub.

Great improvement of bar/lounge.

Poor attitude towards me and my friends. Awkward atmosphere and unfriendly overall

What an improvement. Great little pub, friendly locals and fine pub fayre. All freshly cooked and prices are reasonable. Recommended !!

We were just passing this little pub on our way from Droitwich to Worcester, when we noticed a sign saying two mains for £10, we'll we stopped and we're greeted by a friendly server who sat us at a table, the menu was more than sufficient and was all home cooked, we were a little dubious but the food was awesome, I chose the pasta dish which was full of flavour and plentiful, even came with a fresh salad and garlic bread and my partner chose the chicken breast which was topped with bacon, BBQ sauce and melted cheddar, again with fresh salad and chip, wonderful and all for a tenner, even the beer was only £3 a pint, what more does one want, will be coming here again and again, thank you!

Having moored our narrow boat in the village we walked up to the pub full of expectation having read reviews and looked at the website. Unfortunately the pub doesn't open on Mondays or Tuesdays a local told us. To be sure a couple of us walked down to find an empty car park, doors locked and tables on chairs. The 9 of us then tried the Bridge and they weren't serving food that day either! Thankfully we managed to get a takeaway from Droitwich, King Kebab and burger if you to are left with no options in the village

Came here as part of a big group of cyclists on an extremely wet day, and were very pleased to see a large covered wooden shelter at the side of the pub - presumably installed to accommodate smokers, but ideal as an extra space for anyone who wants/needs to be outside the pub itself. The shelter had plenty of tables and comfy chairs, very welcome ceiling-mounted heaters and even its own bar (which wasn't actually in operation that afternoon but maybe would be at night). Those of us who arrived first ended up waiting a long time for the rest of the group to appear, but that was no hardship at all as we were able to enjoy a few pints while we waited! There were a couple of ales on the bar indoors, plus all the other drinks you might want (including a coffee/cappuccino machine) and bar snacks too. Staff (and fellow drinkers) were friendly and didn't seem to mind the place being taken over by us!

We were on a narrow boat last week enjoying the canals & river between Worcester & Birmingham.

Rather stark interior. Choice of only two Banks's beers on our visit but three ciders all Thatcher's.

My family and I visited as we had moored on the canal. We are so glad we ventured off the boat and found this gem of a pub.

A great local pub and very friendly staff.....what more could you ask for. I've frequented this village pub a few times and it just gets better

Very friendly place to visit. Helpful staff and great cider

odd sort of interior, not new or old - had fish pie wondered who I was sharing with - enormous! full of fish nice veg. don't know how they do it for the price

THIS is how pubs should be. Friendly locals, reasonably priced beer and log fires.No food smells as in those snobby restaurants posing as pubs (where you are as welcome to drink a pint without ordering food as a fart in a spacesuit). If all pubs were like this, then 50 a week in the UK wouldn't be closing down!

Visited twice whilst on the nearby canal.

We were on a narrowboat moored up near by and we visited this pub twice for drinks,It was a excellent pub for a drink. The bar staff were friendly as were the locals. There was plenty of seating and the place had a really good atmosphere. One thing in particular that impressed me was the excellent value the drinks were.I would definitely use this pub again.

Stopped here for lunch - proprietors were exceptionally nice and very welcoming. The food was just ok - standard pub grub, fish had a bland crust, chicken was rather dried out and chips were clearly made from frozen. It wasn't horrible, but was a disappointment after reading some of the reviews here. Had the owners not been so nice I would have given a rating of 2

Myself and Wife popped in for a drink in the sunshine.. we even ended up staying for food! Food was yummy! Drinks were great! Atmosphere and surroundings were spot on! Looking forward to my next visit!

Stopped at Tibberton on a Sunday evening whilst on a canal holiday.

We had an absolutely fabulous meal Excellent service excellent food. Lovely friendly atmosphere and Excellent value Thank you Tracey

this little pub in tibberton near the worcester canal does great honest pub food at good prices ie a ribeye steak at £8.50..not a chain pub ..its run by a local for the locals ..you carnt go wrong

We enjoyed a lovely weekend in Aug 2014 at the campsite. Acres of space,only £5 per tent. No set pitches so we set up far away from everyone. A short walk to the canal and a convenient little shop on the main street. We could park near the tent and have a contained campfire and have a party into the night with no neighbours. Water was available, but had to suffer festival type toilets.We had tents,transit vans and caravans and all were allowed on the site,in a group together. Ideal place for a get together. Already planned to return there. Lovely local walks and scenery.

Well went back for a great weekend Arrived Friday tea time set up then went into pub Saturday visiting friends and valintines evening meal lovely 4 couse meal and bottle wine too good evening and company again love the place my second home

What a wounderful party very welcoming everyone enjoyed the excellent food the landlady was the best we have ever come across in a pub she opened her pub to our family and friends who enjoyed my husbands 65th party she and her staff could not have made us all more welcome please just give this country pub a visit the food is excellent and such warm welcome big open fire great great great thank you so much for your hard work .

Recently visited The Plough for a family birthday get together. The Sunday roast beef was excellent, with a generous portion of beef and more than ample vegetables. The extremely well kept 'Butty Bach' complimented the meal. The landlady was extremely friendly and simply couldn't do enough, even to the extent of providing a 'Happy Birthday' foil balloon for the table. The wonderful roaring fire was so welcome on a cold afternoon.

good company and god food also good beer recomeneded now taken over by owner's good service lovey log fire well built up by Henry Tracey serving a wonderful pint also has camping field to back of pub well worth a visit

The previous negative reviews of this pub may well have been warranted however since the new owners have taken over very recently, I can't commend them enough. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The home cooked food is delicious and The owners make you feel very welcome. I would recommend anyone to pop in and either try a drink here for the first time, or revisit and be prepared to change their views on a bad experience they may have had.

This is a very good Pub/Restaurant

What a transformation in two weeks, the last licensee run this lovely country pub into the ground,now it's clean ,lovely home cooked food, homely and friendly atmosphere and a log fire that will be so cosy through the winter months.well done to family and their friends.

Newly re acquired from the previous Licensee who run this country pub down, the new owners also the new licensee, are putting after the best foot forward Starting by fully stocking the bar,

Great atmosphere, great time take no notice of these stuck up ther bum people because they dont even use the pub " we only stopped off to see what it was like an we loved it - the bar staff are always friendly an its the perfect pub where the kids enjoy it and the parents they have a brilliant sense of natural humour if you want a fake pub then by all means go fetch - but if you want a propper one then this is it- love this pub :)

We spent Saturday night testing out the camp site behind the pub to see if it was a suitable place to bring the kids. After setting up our tent we went to the pub for a drink with out 2 dogs and were made to feel very welcome. We spent an enjoyable afternoon/early evening sitting outside in the extremely comfortable smoking area chatting to other campers. The Landlord and Lady were also very friendly and joined everyone for a chat when they could. We felt as comfortable there as we do in our village local at home. We also had a massive breakfast in the morning at a very reasonable price. Get your tent, caravan or motorhome out. Park up for £5 a pitch per night and have a great little pub on your doorstep.

We decided to try the second pub along the main road in Tibberton.

Speed the Plough is my local, but we don't go there any more. The pub has unfortunately changed hands a few times in the last couple of years and it shows. The atmosphere in what used to be a nice old country pub has deteriorated rapidly. It's noisy, there's bad language and last time I was there I felt uncomfortable and unwelcome. It's not often I give a "terrible" review but Speed the Plough needs to take itself by the scruff of the neck and do something to make people welcome. I haven't tried the food since the last change of hands but at least the terrible pies are no more. And the line of trees outside have for some reason been cut down leaving a bleak view of the car park.

This place used to be worth a visit but is now a dump.

Popped in yesterday evening after seeing signs saying Bathams beer was on tap. A fairly warm may evening and we walked into a room with a roaring log fire with a few of the locals sat in a circle staring at it, fair enough but the atmosphere was as if you had walked into someones living room and were out of place.ordered Bathams £3 a pint ok but a little cloudy. Asked for scotch and was offered jack daniels? After feeling uncomfortable in the room we moved outside on to some comfy chairs and felt alor better until we were informed they were smoking chairs and made to feel unwelcome there aswell. We then moved to the bar where it was fine apart from the flies. On the whole a poor show but what was very strange was several of the people who seemed to have something to do with the running of the place had very strong traveller accents a very very odd set up indeed. Visit if you want a pint in a surreal atmosphere....carry on to the Galton at himbleton is my advice

Went for a drink with family and made to feel unwelcome. Also as we were trying to talk. a football song came on which was being played quite loudly which in turn drove us to sit outside in the smoking area even though we don't smoke. This is one pub i won't be going back to in a hurry.

when we first came down to tibberton this pub was serving the normal marstons pub company rubbish pre made and microwaved...then a nice couple did their best to serve home made pies which where very good..now the new owners are serving beer at very low prices...im yet to taste the food but if its turned around as much as the attendance then they are on the right line..a real difference..good beer at great prices

The landlady made us very welcome and provided 4 2-course meals for us all at 8.20 which she didn't have to do. Thanks to her we had a lovely evening and it was very good value for the money we paid. Sue

Breaking news … this pub may not be around for much longer! The landlord told us that he thought the site would be sold for redevelopment … so get down now and order your pie!

Had lunch here with my son! The homemade beef, mushroom, Guinness and Stilton pie was beautiful and well worth the money! The staff were very friendly! Definitely recommend the pies, not boring run of the mill fillings!

I visited Speed the Plough mid-september in 2013. Just stopped in for a drink but seemed a pretty nice place, a selection of beers and a guest ale every week apparently. Not sure what the recent bad reviews were about - I thought the landlord was really quite friendly actually! Had a nice chat about the nearby railway and some of the local history. Would be happy to go back for a meal sometime.

My wife and I stopped here at about 7.30 on a Wednesday evening. We went into the deserted lounge with our dog (it advertises itself as dog friendly). The landlord appeared and switched on the lights (it was that deserted).

This is without doubt the most unwelcoming pub in the history of pubs, Ive seen some muppets trying run a pub but believe me this outfit takes some beating, Its no surprise that none of the locals use the pub, Its not a friendly experience, its not a welcoming experience its a Joke!!! please be warned that should you park on the carpark you really are risking being shouted at...My only advice with regards to this place is to put your foot down as you drive by...

Those are the three words that spring to mind when thinking about this pub. Having been stuck for hours on the M5 we decided to pull off at Junction 6 and head cross-country to Birmingham. My 13 and 10 year old woke up and needed a wee. From the outside the place looked friendly enough so I pulled up for them to use the facilities - only for them to be chased out by the landlord 10 seconds later!

One of the best pies I've ever tasted! Clearly one of their specialties. The lady who served us was very friendly and chatty, giving the place a homely and genuinely family run feel. Having been to the Bridge pub up the road because it was more busy, and leaving because it didn't have much of the menu in stock and didn't take card. Been thoroughly impressed with this pub, a real find and a warm, memorable evening! Thank you very much!

This delightful country pub is set in the small village of Tibberton in glorious Worcestershire countryside. You can be assured of a warm welcome from the owners whose speciality is pies. This was our second visit after first finding it last year. Food quality is excellent and the atmosphere and surroundings just perfect for a nice evening out. On both occasions, we chose the fish pie which could be used as a benchmark for what a fish pie should be. We hope to visit again on our next holiday in the area.

The newly refurbished 'Plough' in Tibberton Nr Worcester is worth a trip if only to try one of the many homemade pies on offer. Along with a warm welcome from the new owners a pint and a pie can not be beaten.

A very welcoming village pub. I have honestly never seen such a large selection of original and great quality homemade pies. I had a beautiful (and very festive) Rudolf pie and the missus really enjoyed her Beef & mushroom with Guinness and Stilton pie. Both pies were packed full of meat and flavourful gravy. I am already looking forward to trying another of their exciting pies! Fine homemade food washed down with good quality ale and the friendly family atmosphere meant a very enjoyable evening!

We came here for dinner on a Thursday evening and were given a very friendly welcome by the landlady. The food - with a limited menu - was well cooked and tasty.
