Sun in Bromsgrove

Great food and even better staff. Very attentive and fast food delivery. High quality all around and with very reasonable prices.

Food very nice will definitely be returning

Terrible, food was awful. I used to come here quite often over a year ago, the food had just gone downhill. I ordered a mixed grill. It was about £16. Definitely not worth £16. The steak was so chewy, the chicken looked like and tasted like it had been either microwaved or boiled, I wouldn’t have fed it to my cat. The chips were stone cold and dry. Egg was snotty. It was possible the worst mixed grill I have ever had. Staff didn’t even come to ask us how our food was. Basically felt ignored the whole time. Awful experience. Won’t be returning again.

great service, even when it’s busy you can see the team are working at full speed to make sure all the guests are looked after. i will definitely be visiting again and bringing my family with me. thank you for a lovely time

We recently visited The Sun in Romsley for a birthday celebration, and it was a truly enjoyable experience from start to finish. Upon arrival, we were greeted with warm smiles by the friendly staff, who were both welcoming and informative. The building itself is attractive, offering a cozy yet stylish setting, and our table was well-lit with comfortable seating, making for a relaxed dining experience. The food was another highlight. When our meals arrived, they were beautifully presented and looked fresh and appetizing. The fish dish, in particular, was generous in portion and absolutely delicious. Every element of the meal was cooked to perfection, showcasing both quality ingredients and careful preparation. What stood out most was the excellent service. The staff ensured that we never felt rushed, allowing us to enjoy our meal at a leisurely pace. They also waited until everyone had finished eating before clearing the table, which added to the relaxed atmosphere. Overall, The Sun provided the perfect setting for a special occasion. The combination of great food, attentive service, and a welcoming environment made for a fantastic evening. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience.

Great place and lovely garde/ seating area at the back. The food was good and the atmosphere too.i would recommend

Ordered from lunch menu, food was excellent, Kell and Diane were great hosts and service was perfect, well worthy of a visit.

Come to the sun at Romsley 5 days of the week. Lovely pub with even better staff . Kell is always friendly and chatty. Strongly recommend people to try The Sun at Romsley.

Great service and the food was great,will definitely return

Food was fast and tasty. The staff were welcoming and bubbly. Kell was a 10 out of 10 will definitely be back.

We've been to the Sun a few times and had good experiences but the removal of table service is poor. We sat and waited for someone to take our drinks order but, of course, nobody came. When we chased up, we discovered we had to order at the bar. So, a trip to the bar to order drinks, then again to order food, and then a third time to order desserts. Trying to order for 8 people, is a challenge. The menus have a QR code for ordering but this takes an age to load (I guess this depends on your provider signal?). If you can access the page, trying to wade your way through the options and order meals for 8 people is a bit of a joke so we didn't bother. In all, it really took the edge off the visit. If we had wanted a Wetherspoons experience we would have gone to Wetherspoons. The good news is that everyobody enjoyed the food (although the quantity of fries with the cowboy burger was a bit stingy) but it's inevitable that cost-cutting measures that impair the quality of service will result in the loss of customers. We won't be back, unfortunately.

In all fairness the food wasn’t bad when it finally arrived, however the level of service was dismal, we waited an hour for food and people who’d come in after us were receiving their food before us. After paying in excess of £100.00 for food and drink the service and don’t really give a toss attitude of the girls behind the bar was way below what I expected from a pub which I previously held in high regard! Definitely won’t be going there again.

Good food, clean pub, lovely beer garden and play area for the kids.

Very busy, short staffed, we went on Tuesday 11th of March m the 2 ladies were extremely busy.

Lovely makeover , lovely food & very accommodating, very friendly staff.

My wife and I had a lovely meal. The food was served by a wonderfully happy and friendly young lad who added to our overall enjoyment of the occasion.

Booked on-line for 15 people for a celebration ,(2 weeks+ in advance) - EMAIL back saying NOT yet confirmed but will come back to me. Then email to say they look forward to welcoming us so informed guests all booked. Then email to say they had cancelled booking? Called them for that duty manager to tell me that she could move things around and she would put the booking back in............ so we all turn up on the night in question '1st March' to be told they can't accommodate us and we were turned away !!!! Totally ruined everyone's evening and complete night was cancelled - I WILL NEVER GO THETE AGAIN. Ought to employ efficient staff.

Sadly we made the mistake of attending when the sun was shining. No pun intended. What an awful experience. We booked a table two days before thinking this would help the up and coming nice weather crowds descending. How wrong I was. I had to find a staff member when we arrived to inform them as no one was on meet and greet. We’d booked a table for our celebration dinner. People are still sat at your table we were told when we finally found a staff member. You need to wait. Another 20 minutes until the manager appears to clear the now vacant table only to be told there’s an hour wait for food and they don’t do table service anymore which is poor and we’d need to join the line to order at the bar. This line was out of the door! The manager just pulled a face when I said we were leaving. No apology. Nothing. We went to the harvester instead with our money and a table of five where we were served by staff and made to feel welcome. Please don’t make the same mistake and just go somewhere else, especially if it’s a lovely day. **Response to owner** No Diana we won’t be back which is sad as I’d previously provided a 5 star review when we last attended and it was table service. If I raised my voice I apologise but the lack of service or interest we received wasn’t acceptable. This was a a special day after 8 months of hardship for our family. Pre booked tables should take priority in my opinion or what’s the point in booking. Making us wait at the bar isn’t acceptable both when our table wasn’t ready or to order food and drinks. The restaurant was empty. 10 minutes or 20 I’m not splitting hairs. It’s still not acceptable. We could have easily been sat at another reserved table and things shuffled around but no. Non of my party heard any apology including me and even my father said “she really didn’t care did she.” All the recent low star reviews can’t all be wrong. The harvester was busy but they still managed to seat us straight away and serve us so I’m sorry but the issue is the Sun. It’s changed and not for the best.

Really nice place to visit. Relaxed atmosphere. Quick service food quality good.

Always been here must be new owners the manager was rude, the food was such small portions like for kids, I had some out of date rocket lettuce on my plate, toilets wow they am always lovely was a disgrace shit all down one toilet an on seat an toilet paper all over floors dirty sinks really dissatisfied was never like that before

Stopped off last Thursday on our way home. Was turned away as apparently fully booked, even though there seemed to be plenty of tables and I could literally go online and book a table for half an hour later. Went to the pub just up the road instead.

Food was ok and service alright, atmosphere is awful, don’t waste your money on the pub quiz either because it’s clear only locals are allowed to win. We left after people complained I was on my phone, which I didn’t deny, it was in Plain sight as I was running my business and reading about Donald trump\Russia - amazed at how competitive people got for a £30 bar tab, which we were going to give away anyway - miserable gits

Lovely afternoon with family having lunch on my birthday

Went for the childrens disco during February half term. The kids loved it. Great music and a goody bag each.

Another fantastic kids event today, with a kids disco for half term. Nice to see this great pub care about families and the community, and had a meal and the food was fantastic. The chicken melts in your mouth. Big thanks to Diana and team, see you soon xx

We attended the sonic and tails breakfast, was a fab morning my boys loved it and the staff are great. Foods always lovely and always a warm welcome 🫶 we will defo be visiting the events going forward x

The Sun Inn is a credit to the staff. Every single member of the staff & Management are really nice lovely people and make you feel very welcome. 🙂

Lovely steak as always .great service clean toilets you can always tell a good pub or restaurant when the Loo's are clean

The food was very good, everyone was served at the same time, at a previous visit we had table service this has now changed but it wasn't very clear that this had changed, Overall a good service provided by very busy staff. An additional member of staff working on the bar would be helpful to avoid the ques, but credit to the manager who was working very efficiently along side her staff.

Glad lunchtime menu back to normal with sandwiches and jackets and were very tasty and value for money. Staff were very friendly, extremely helpful and polite and all worked really hard to help customers and keep pub areas clean and tidy so good aesthetics of pub to relax in.

We had a 3 course meal and every course was beautiful! The portion sizes were spot on too. The service was great, staff were so lovely!! Would 100% recommend.

Lovely Sunday dinner excellent quick service, great food, nice and warm, no issues

Attended as a group of six for tea. The pub was very quiet, which we thought was strange for a Saturday night. We ordered two orange j20's and a coke with no ice, received two apple j20's which were extremely warm, and a coke with ice. We then ordered food. The presentation was awful, the food all tasted Chargilled. The sausages were like rubber, and the chicken was hard. My mum ordered hunters chicken with chips and salad, and it only came with salad. They also forgot her onion rings and tomato, which was brought out later on. The food was merely warm...We visit the sun regularly and honestly today has completely put us off. When my mum confronted the waitress about her chips, she was rude and argumentative. It was really poor. I stood at the bar, and the staff continued to talk and ignored i was even there. The staff in general were rude. Really disappointed and won't be recommending the sun anymore.

Recently dined here during a week day. The place felt welcoming and you can even sit outside to dine if you wish. Staff were friendly and there was a nice relaxed atmosphere. The food was mediocre. Small portions, luke-warm soup with a stale baguette to dip in it, and for the main course, a tiny piece of chicken breat with frozen chips which had been deep fried too long and a little bit of salad (tiny piece of tomato and cucumber, sliced onion and some wilted lettuce leaves. I chose not to complain as I was dining with a friend who I hadn't seen in a while and on this occasion, did not want to make a scene. I would return in the summer to have a drink outside in the sunshine, but I would choose to eat elsewhere.

Valentines meal was advertised two courses on facebook for £17.50 but this was somehow lost. Disappointed as I booked in and it was all changed. The Sun website and menus for valentines night not at all clear.

Comfortable, warm, dog friendly pub. Food is good value for money. Great place for lunch and a catch up with friends.

Great pub, fab staff and good food

Good clean and safe place to socialise and enjoy a good meal and selection of beer and spirits. Pub and staff follow Corvid 19 rules.

Very welcoming and like it that it is dog friendly. The food is plentiful and tasteful will be back thank you.

We haven't been to the sun in a long time we decided to go yesterday evening as a pick me up from the dreary january weather. We waited a minute or two to be seated which was fine. We were seated in the conservatory part right by the back door which leads to a outdoor seating area. Which was not being used as the temperature was 3 degrees last night. But sadly this door was constantly being used as a walk through from the car park instead of the main entrance which has a double door to stop the cold draughts. We were freezing I left my coat on for most of the stay. There was a group of young teenagers I assume eating in the pub side of the resturant that kept running in and out of the door and holding it open talking to one and other I actually asked the one young lad to close the door as it was cold and the other group of people sitting buy us agreed and said it was freezing. I think during winter that door should be closed off to make eating in that part off the pub more comfortable for guests. The food we had was nice but we ate as quick as we could and left as we were so cold. The main entrance is about 10 to 15 steps from the back beer garden entrance so I don't see why it was not closed off it would save on energy bills to as the back part would stay was.

We were a group of 12 people, 6 are from a local care home in wheelchairs. Our table was very easy to access and we were given a very warm welcome. The service we received was amazing. Quite a few of our group had complex dietary requirements which was handled efficiently and easily. Our whole experience was excellent and very much enjoyed by everyone. Thank you.

Food is very reasonably priced and I have always had a decent meal here. Staff are extremely friendly and attentive

Lovely place , warm and friendly environment , food was lovely. Hot and good value . Staff were friendly and helpful . We will definitely be back .

Food was nice but drinks very expensive!! £8 for a glass of wine. Service slow. Not particularly busy but only one person serving behind the bar and one manager. We waited nearly five minutes to be seated despite the two staff members repeatedly walking past us, no acknowledgement or be with you shortly etc. also half hour wait for food with no warning. Lovely place but definitely needed more staff and price of drinks needs reviewing.

It was a lovely visit and the staff were very friendly and the food was lovely.

Good festive food in a popular pub. Easy parking and a nice atmosphere

First time here, food was very nice. Great parking.

Despite it being a busy NYE service was friendly and professional. Food was lovely and plenty of it. No long wait and communication about the food, how to order etc was great. It got busier before we left and we could see how hard the staff were working to keep everybody happy. We will return in the new year for sure

We just popped in on Sunday, it was v busy but we were attended to very quickly and only had to wait a short time for a table. Great food and service.

Good food and a nice relaxed atmosphere… staff all very helpful and attentive despite how busy the place was.. couldn’t really complain about anything..

The 3rd year of breakfast with Santa and Mrs Claus. ❤️❤️

An excellent dining experience for our Christmas get together with the family, Food was excellent and the service was excellent. We had a fabulous day.

Good selection of wines and beers Food good and high quality

Main course was far below standard, burnt roast potatoes, hard sprouts , turkey dry , 5 of us could not eat main course far below expected standard.

Went for a festive meal with family the food was great and staff friendly aswell

Fabulous morning for breakfast with Santa. Hot tasty food, good fun for children and very well organised!

Dined with 3 friends and had festive menu. All came in good time and was piping hot and delicious. A good price for 3 course meals too. Our young gentleman server was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. A credit to you. Couldn't possible ask for more. Thank you

Pleasant staff. Food good but small portions

Lovely meal as usual and a lovely friendly waitress. We come here alot and have never had a bad experience with food or staff tbh. Keep doin what your doin See you soon

Limited staff but they were helpful and attentive Food was nice and delivered in good time

Had a wonderful Xmas. 3 course meal. Wow

Great staff, great food, great service. Lovely atmosphere, can't fault anything about our day. Will be going back 👍 Many Thanks for a lovely day.

Lovely atmosphere, great service and a large varied menu suitable for all dietary requirements

Lack off staff have to wait 20 mins for a drink with table service food isn't the best much perfer The blackhorse up illy where staff are friendly and polite and any issues with food or drinks gets resolved as it should not like the sun shocking staff and service guys not good when your paying for your grub !! £6.50 a point absolute rip off too

A very busy pub at dinner time with some spare places. The food was excellent at reasonable prices and served in a very friendly atmosphere. The food was freshly cooked to order.

Very good service and amazing food

Great service but the food was dreadful, returned and still cold and burnt somehow. They even managed to mess up pepsi flat and no taste. At least the beer is good. I would personally never come back. Changed from 2 stars to 3, the deserts were lovely.

Great service ,warm and friendly

Food ok came out very fast and was on warm not hot think it was out with in 5 mins of ordering

Friendly staff, great food at a reasonable price.

We've been going to the Sun for a while now. One of our go-to places for some good pub food. It had a refurb a year or so ago. I'm not sure if it changed hands at this point or shortly before, but there was a big improvement to the food. Previously it was a 2 for 1 pub, which meant it was cheap, but the food was only ok. Since then the prices have gone up a bit, but the food is now really good. Also worth mentioning, we have been a few times with friends who have specific dietary requirements. These are always catered for either already on the menu or when mentioned

Lovley afternoon out waitress service nothing to much trouble thank you 😊

I've been to the Sun at romsley in Halesowen for a while now with my 2 best girlfriends,every time we go we have a great time,good food,great service,staff really friendly and lovely,can't rate it enough brilliant place

Staff very polite friendly and welcoming and the Sunday dinner was amazing. Going again for our staff Christmas meal drinks and disco looking forward to visiting again.

Service and food was spot on couldn’t ask for anything more.Staff were very friendly.

I accessed the restaurant from the far rear door by the car park. I approached a member of staff who appeared to be at some sort “Reception” area but was advised to go and stand at another place they pointed at and somebody would see me. I went to what I now realised was the welcome desk, nobody was there, however a staff member from behind the bar asked how they could help, came over, looked at the booking and led me to my table. Advising me that it was table service. At no point between then and the other parties sitting down was I asked if I wanted a drink. When we came to order, there didn’t seem to be very many staff wandering about and it was almost 5 minutes before a member of staff came and we asked if we could order. Our food did take a long time to come compared to others who had ordered just before us however we weren’t too concerned because the restaurant had started filling up. My friend and I both ordered the chicken and mushroom pie, unfortunately neither of us were impressed with this. The gravy was lukewarm and we requested that it be heated up. The pie description was short crust base with a puff pastry lid. Probably due to how the pie wad cooked the pastry was not flaky nor crusty for either, we found it was quite hard to cut. However, it was edible and we didn’t want another pie cooking because the chances are it will probably end up the same and I was hungry. At no point during our meal did anybody ask if our food was okay, nor upon collecting the plate or when paying the bill. Overall a very disappointing experience and I probably will not go back for a long time if at all.

We booked a table a few days previous. When we got there nobody was available to speak to on arrival! We had included in the reservation that we had a dog with us “which you stare are welcome” but apparently you reserve the shabbiest area of the pub with the tiniest tables for visitors with dogs!! I noticed that our booking was moved in front of me on the computer as I enquired at the desk! I find the whole episode unpleasant and the stony face of the servers did nothing to change my opinion. 😡😡. It’s misleading when you say you take digs and then put the In the worst area of the pub. Welcome means welcome to me. Also Diane, we had driven a long way to have lunch so we stayed!! I said it was fine because I didn’t have a choice!!

Excellent service. Quick, efficient, drinks came quickly and food came fast and piping hot. What was brilliant was after the plates were taken away we were left alone to chat without being disturbed. When we were ready to pay we waved for someone and they came to us straight away and we paid within 2 minutes. Brilliant service so happy with our visit

We had two chicken masalas and rice two sides of fries and one gamon and chips all very nice .

Friendly, efficient, great location, and the food was lovely.

Seated at round table which was perfect for parking the pram. Order taken quickly. Waited 45 mins for food order. Meals weren't very hot. Beef tough. Stuffing ball hard. No pigs in blanket on turkey meal. Breaded mushrooms awful, probably frozen. Wanted removed from the bill but my Son didn't want a fuss made. Female server called us 'love' or 'lovelies' totally unprofessional. Male server sullen & could barely understand him. Obvious not enjoying his job role. In all, not a good experience. Won't be back in a hurry.

I come to the sun for a family meal and had an amazing experience. The food was great and the atmosphere was just what we would expect it to be as well as the service, all staff members were lovely and had a smile on their faces. Would definitely recommend.

Nice friendly pub with lovely beer garden. Sunday Roast was disappointing. Processed meat, not roasted and not carved. Veg was watery , tasted like frozen Mash tasted like it came out of a bag. Roasters tasted frozen. Stuffing was dry and hard. Yorkshire was warmed up in microwave and was chewy, not enough gravy. Pudding was overheated in microwave also. Rubbery and tasteless. Not enough custard. Coffee was nice.

Was there 5 days ago had a very nice experience

As always good reasonably priced food

Good food and beer.Drinks are a bit pricey.Very nice atmosphere.

Booked online which was really easy. Arrived and shown to our table which was ready. Food was great- 2 people had steaks and commented how good they were for the price - better than that of miller and carter! Staff were friendly and helpful and there was a happy atmosphere in the pub. Very enjoyable late lunch with friends and dogs!

Excellent decor, very clean and welcoming, polite and helpfull staff. The food quality and portion size was second to none.

Lovely atmosphere, perfect for family and friends

Noah was great! So friendly and positive! Such a good experience! Noah deserves a pay rise! Will defo be coming back. Thank you Noah:)

Over the decades The Sun has always produced consistently reliable good food and service.

Absolutely delicious Sunday roast servive is fast and all the staff are friendly and so welcoming. Would highly recommend will definitely be going back very soon.

Firstly this is a pub that does basic food so if you remember that you can’t go wrong. Every time I’ve been the food has been hot which is the top of my list. Do I wish all there food was home made ? Yes I do as you can’t beat home made food but the staff are polite, attentive with great customer care

Disappointed having booked a table for 6-30 on Sunday that they had run out of roasts. I was looking forward to a nice meal which was advertised as being served until 8-00 pm. Staff were excellent, but still a disappointment .

Lovely pub! Great beer garden! Nice kids play area. Real cosy feel inside with the decor and furnishings they do a selection of cocktails thr food was pretty standard, but I think alot of pubs now don't know how to cook so standard is good :D felt like there was a bit of tension with the staff maybe they were rushed off their feet but the place wasn't busy it was a midweek lunchtime, but they did their very best and didn't have an attitude with customers which also seems pretty rare nowadays. Overall I would visit again! :)

Great place polite and good staff

Friendly helpful staff. Lovely atmosphere. The staff were very accommodating to our toddler and our dogs. Great food and great value

Food decent, was nice and hot, service was lacking as got seated and no one one came, took ages to take order or even ask for a drink. I could see four free serving staff just standing by kitchen chatting, one having a drink. No one was checking if any one needed serving. In the end I was staring over to get attention, so one person then noticed. Ordered starter, said to just bring with main, it was then left behind and forgotten to be brought out. I then said don't bother with it, as we'd started eating already.

Friendly staff and good food at a sensible price

Nice friendly staff and great food. Food Portions could be a bit bigger for price that is paid for the main meals but overall food is very nice.
