Sun Inn in Stafford

Went to the beer festival yesterday, wide selection of drinks, really good beer, decent live band and lovely staff. Downside was all the ciders I tried were extremely sweet and tepid and the BBQ food was AWFUL. £12 for a thin burnt pizza with very little pepperoni and £8 for a very average burger with one slice of kraft cheese and no other toppings or salad. The chips were good but again expensive, and no salt and vinegar were available or other condiments. Strongly recommend sticking to drinks and eating elsewhere until they resume serving the normal food menu.

This is my regular and usually the food is ok but today It was awful, 18/07/2024. We ordered 3 meals . Burger, fish and chips and small lasagne. All overcooked. Lasagne size of a postage stamp. The fish and chips were bad, fish dried up , batter like rock. Burger the bacon was burnt. I did mention when plates were being cleared but the young man just laughed and took them away. Won't be having food there again. Sad.

Spending the night in Stafford, never been to the town before but the staff at the Travelodge recommended this place. Grabbed a table and a titanic brewery bitter. Exactly what I wanted after travelling after work. Good atmosphere, great staff, decent beer.

Great pub in good central location. Great selection of real ales and drinks in general. Good staff, great prices, good clientele with outside seating area

Hi my name is Baz here with my mate Steveee. I’ve had the gammon up where with others gammons maybe not the best I’ve had but then I I must say I’ve had a lot of gammons in my time 10/10

Always a good pint of ale. However the food is poor value for money. Paid £14.95 for steak and ale pie with 25 garden peas in a pot meant for serving condiments and two tables spoons of mash. The plate was half empty and I left hungry. Steak pie was also very salty. No one came to ask if we were happy with the food almost felt like staff were embarrassed to ask cause they know it’s poor.

Hi my name is Steve I’m back again the hunters chicken was just as good as last time 10 stars again from me. The suns my place to go in Stafford know.

Very handy for Stafford station which means that friends living on the West Coast mainline can easily meet up without having to drive. An outstanding selection of well kept quality real ales at low prices, especially given the location. A reasonable menu providing value for money pub meals. Friendly and engaging staff. Plenty of tables, a number big enough for larger groups like ours.

Not been for a while. Food was OK but quiet expensive compared to other places. There is definitely a decline in the place. Mould & cobwebs evident in the little snug. Staff seemed to just enjoy chatting away with each other. Unsure if I'll go back

Hi my name is Steve I do have to say this was the best hunters chicken I’ve ever tasted not 5 stars 10 if not more. I will be back again very soon

Visited here on a Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch as solo female traveller. Warm welcome, ordered drink, found table & perused menu. I chose bacon cheeseburger which was lovely. Homemade burger & lots of chips. Place was reasonably busy at 3 pm on a Tuesday. I sat downstairs near fireplace. Unfortunately fire wasn’t lit & I was cold. I do think that prices are a little steep for a pub however nice food is.

Lovely ale and atmosphere. Howeve, the cottage pie for £15 is poor value for money …. 20 peas, frozen chips, watery gravy. Sorry but I suggest you try the cottage pie at the dog & partridge at calf heath for £9.75 as a benchmark before charging these prices.

Had a local business meeting at this venue. Greeted by a warm welcome wasn’t too busy so worked well for my needs. Good food offering although have to say I didn’t try anything. Very good selection of cask ales and equal offering of lagers, ciders and their own offering of a stout liking of Guinness. Will frequent again.

Arrived mid-afternoon on a Sunday….looking for food and a drink after a long drive - and spotted the Sun Inn just around the corner from where we were staying. A great little gem - unfortunately the menu was limited given the time of day, but the food was as excellent. And the beer and cider we had was very welcome and refreshing. The atmosphere was relaxed and actually relatively quiet. Everything was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Visited here first time for food for ages. Late lunch with friend. Gone back to pub food which is great, just wish there was another potato choice other than chips with meals. I had Black & Blue burger which was delicious, nice homemade burger. Friend ordered Hunters chicken which he really enjoyed too. Quiet when we went in at 1 pm on a Friday but people started coming in later. Staff friendly & helpful. Had bad experience few years ago hence why not been for food for a while but will be back now after recent visit.

Great pub but toilets are awful in my option if toilets are bad so is cleanliness everywhere Would only drink here at a push never eat .

As a regular visitor at the Sun, recent improvements have been welcomed by many - New menu is great. Staff have a smile on face and help create a comfortable atmosphere to socialise in. Can’t fault the food, beer or service. Busy at times but that is understandable. 10/10. Chapeau to management and staff!

4 friends dinner 19th January. 30 mins to find 1 crumpled menu. No vegetarian. Limited choice. 20 mins to get food. Had to send back as purported skin on fries we got were not were cold. Not going there again

Really disappointed with our visit to the Sun. We have regularly visited The Sun but it is certainly not the pub it used to be pre covid. Myself and 2 friends ordered a bottle of white wine (which was expensive compared to other pubs!). We were given 1 wine glass (which wasn't very clean) and 2 lager glasses as apparently there were no more wine glasses available! We found a table but it was wet and sticky from previous spilt drinks and obviously had been cleaned for a while. After 10 mins we went to ask if any wine glasses were available (sounds silly, but drinking wine from a half pint lager glass just doesn't seem right) . We thought they may have been being washed when we initially ordered the wine. We were offered 2 'champagne' flutes instead and told that they were the only glasses they had (again, they were not very clean, with lipstick marks around the rim). The Sun is a town centre pub ( we realise they specialise in ales etc) but what pub has no wine glasses available!? (We looked around and there didn't seem many people drinking wine so maybe they need to invest in some more glasses). Needless to say, we drank up and left and found somewhere with cheaper wine and actual clean wine glasses! We won't be returning unfortunately.

I have had the pleasure of meeting a few friends in this establishment recently and have been treated well on these occasions, unfortunately this time I was treated terribly by the management.I had just entered this pub to meet up with some ex work colleagues, I was greeted by a nice friendly polite bartender and was served a pint of Cider, I had been served with a pint of cider, I was aggressively approached by the manager who proceeded to tell me loudly in front of a large crowd of fellow customers that I was barred for some reason relating to a beer Festival held in this pub, which I did not attend due to having a broken Neck which required extensive cervical spinal surgery which has left me partially paralysed, mainly down my left side. I had my dog with me, who is a registered therapy dog. The landlord would not explain to me the reason or situation that has resulted in myself and my therapy dog to be barred. I was rudely and Aggressively told that the landlord recognised my dog and that I was barred previously for something that happened during this beer Festival, as the biannual beer festivals are held in may and August I was shocked to have this quoted to me as the reason for myself being barred, as I was in no physical position to attend these beer festivals due to recovering from said serious spinal surgery. The barmaid was loudly instructed to take my pint away and to return my money, which was taken by the manager and tossed back in my face, which with difficulty I had to retrieve from the floor in front of me. I am absolutely disgusted with the way I have been treated by the manager of this establishment, I am a 6”2’ tall 18 stone, alternative looking man with 17 piercings in my face with a unique thick black beard, and wouldn’t describe myself as easily mistaken for someone else, hence my surprise at being treated so undignified by the manager, whilst politely asking to have an explanation as to this treatment when during the past month have had two enjoyable evenings in this establishment. I am clearly disabled I limp badly and have great difficulty using my left hand side, I wonder if I would of been treated to such an undignified display in front of a busy pub had I chosen to attend in my wheelchair which I frequently need to use due to said spinal damage? I am totally Disgusted with this treatment of a clearly disabled person when I have no comprehension as to why I was treated this way, I fully intend to take this higher and am shocked as to the reason for this treatment and hope that I am the only person who has been subjected to this kind of attitude towards someone clearly disabled. I shall not be returning to this establishment again and Strongly recommend anyone who has a visible physical disability not to attend this establishment either.

The lady who served me with a tweety pie tattoo on her arm was extremely rude. No smile no hello just a "yeah" I had a few interactions with this lady and if I was the manager I would sack immediately. however, the waiters were very polite and helpful. The food was hot and very nice. It's a shame the bar staff were rude & unhelpful. Would i go back....after the "customer service" I received at the bar probably not. If you don't like dealing with the public then I would advise you go work in a warehouse.

The most expensive pub in Stafford £5.10 for a larger Shandy, Covent garden it isnt & the sad student type staff look like all there Mothers have just died & on the way to the funerals they'd lost a tenner & found a fiver.

The Sunday roast is absolutely out of this world, The veg was cooked perfectly Al- Dente, the meat was lovely and tender, i can honestly say what a treat! the staff were lovely, the pub overall has an amazing feel to it, i was blown away with the rear garden area and its Gin Shack, loved it. also Pet friendly which i am super pleased about. A lovely place, definitely going more ! :) 👍

Absolute Chaos. Booked ahead but table taken by others.Staff running around like headless chickens. Other parties coming in some 30 minutes after us getting their food. 3 plates of food delivered to our table not ordered by us. Note we were a party of 2. People walking out due to wait.Spoke to member of Staff as to where our order was after nearly an hours wait. Then witnessed food being delivered to a Table again who had arrived after us. Just about to walk out when finally food turned up some 80 minutes after we had arrived. Food was not bad but not exceptional. Staff trying their best but obviously under pressure due to not enough of them.Which Nicompoop had decided Tables do not need Numbers in an establishment where you just walk in is a Looney Tune. We will definitely not be returning to this Shambles of a Venue.

Couldn't fault the food or service, you defo get your moneys worth for food and its soooooo yummy 🤤

Defo one of the best bars around. Always friendly, always had great food and I know there are some poor reviews of the food but always been fresh, hot and great tasting for us. And this weekends mini fest was brilliant. Great music and fantastic beer and atmosphere.

I have some issues about Saturday 26th March 2022 I am quite annoyed with your very dismissive chef. I ordered warm chickpea salad. There were zero chickpeas, not much feta and a mush of lettuce to be quite frank. I explained this to the waiter -he came back and told me that the chef said that there are chickpeas in it. No, there were not. I then told the bar person who offered to fetch me chickpeas to add on top... OK - a bit strange to not offer to take the plate away, but that's OK. They came back without chickpeas thus proving that they had none. Sadly one of my friends ordered chicken caeser salad that came without the chicken - it happens. It came back 30 minutes later - nice chicken and lettuce but no bacon lardons or anchovies etc as per the menu... again no apology or acknowledgment from the chef. My other friend had the crispy beef salad with only few pieces of beef. I asked if the chef didn't mind coming out to look at our food and chickpealess salad but they didn't show up. We weren't even mad but the chef could have acknowledged and/or apologised and/or offered an alternative. Such a shame. We appreciate that this is more an ale pub etc but why not just take the salads off the menu, may be? Thank you, though, to your Sam C who did try to help us and offered us a full refund. Post pandemic many of us ate just meeting up with friends and family for food and a natter. A few other diners around us could not believe the poor standard of food either. We know our chickpeas but sadly the chef did not. You may think that I am being a moaner but since Saturday, I have e-maiked, messenger messaged, called and tweeted to no avail - just wanted a sorry or to be acknowledged that is all. To be heard! Poor show The Sun.

Good food. Service is a little slow but the food is worth waiting for. A very good choice of drinks but there is not a large range of food on the menu.

The Sun accepted a table of 9 at short notice after we were let down at another restaurant. They let us turn up within 15 minutes and we had a great meal with lovely friendly service. Greatly appreciated and recommended.

Great food, been twice now. Once on a lunchtime, once on steak night. Delicous and friendly. I like the nooks and crannies you can sit in and dogs are also allowed. We will return.

Came here for a meal as the menu has changed. Rang ahead of time to check closing time if kitchen and got here with time to spare. Bar staff rude when asked about ordering food and left waiting while she sent someone to check if...

Great atmosphere. Great staff. Great food. Great variety of Titanic beers and other drinks. Not too expensive.

Popped in with my sister yesterday for Sunday lunch, 2 for £18. We both chose the roast beef, absolutely delicious. All the vegetables were beautifully cooked. The Yorkshire was a delight. I washed mine down with my favourite pint of captain's Smith's.. I have been...

Popped in on a Saturday evening for the first time in ages . Rather quieter than we have seen it in the past , which made it more pleasant being able to get a table in the bar area which we prefer. Ordered the drinks...

If we could give - stars we would. This pub used to be great but something has gone drastically wrong. The atmosphere is awful, heard management/supervisers shouting at staff and basically bullying them. Kitchen door open so could hear cook swearing and shouting, the 'F'...

Love The Sun, it’s one of my favourite drinking pubs in Stafford. Ordered food here yesterday and it did not disappoint, always impressed.

The food was fabulous, the drinks great. However this was all completely overshadowed by the terrible service. The staff were rude, unfriendly, unhelpful and really brought down what should have been a lovely meal. An example being when we asked if there was a wine...

I visited The Sun with friends a few days ago and ordered 3 x Tapas dishes for £5.95 each or 3 for £15. I didn’t know whether to burst out laughing or angrily complain when the ‘Chicken Popcorn’ was served simply as a bowl of...

Staff were rude to my children. Particularly a young blonde haired lady who did not once smile and did not acknowledge children there when ordering food.

Been sat waiting for 20 mins for a drink... not even full. Have asked twice.... ggggrrrrr such a shame this eve what is normally a good pub when walked to bar to ask in a table service onky pub 4 staff were stood chatting.... come...

We wanted an early evening meal and booked at short notice. The menu was limited with no starters or desserts, but a good choice of main courses. We were told that the menu will gradually be expanded in the next few weeks. We ordered the...

We had Sunday lunch here today and it was lovely. The meat of the day was roast beef which was lovely and pink and it came with some perfect veg and Yorkshire pudding. Also had some titanic white star beer which was really good too....

Ale is vile, staff are grumpy and rude. Avoid at all cost. I will never visit this pub again and will advise family and friends to avoid. My pint (if you can call it a pint) was pulled and was more like three quarters full. I asked for a top up and was refused and told to go elsewhere if I wasn't happy. Titanic should be ashamed of themselves.

we had a burger with chips and it didnt last very long...10 out of ten. for all the presentation .....

Called in for a pre-event meal and drink. 'Welcomed' by a member of staff identifiable on the till as Casper. No smile. No eye contact. No welcome. No charm whatsoever. Took our order - again, no "please" or "thankyou". Took our money. Ditto. If we weren't pushed for time, would've definitely gone elsewhere. The food was good (hence the two stars), but do not expect anything approaching a warm welcome - at least, from this individual.

Lovely atmosphere, great friendly staff, drinks and food were excellent. Bar area where dogs are allowed and fabulous outdoor decking area at the back which will be great when it gets warmer, I think there might be heaters out there at the mo but we stayed indoors for the food.

Busy pub, nice ambience, excellent range of ales from local brewery . Not eaten here yet but food looks good!

The Sun Inn is a nice busy city centre pub. The staff are friendly. The food however leaves a lot to be desired. Definitely freezer to fryer with a stop off at the microwave. I had fish and chips. Goodness knows when the fish actually saw the fryer but it certainly wasnt cooked fresh. The batter wasnt at all crisp, some of the chips were cooked some were not and the tartar sauce on the plate was hot. The dirty plates were left on our table for about 40 minutes and then only half of them were cleared away. Probably best only visiting for a drink if you are in the area.

Visited after the 10km Stafford road race and it was packed! Seemed like every other participant had decided to go there too but they handled everything very well. Had to wait a while to get a table for lunch but what can you expect on such an occasion. Efficient bar staff and the meal we had, when it did come (once again a wait was to be expected) was very, very good. Great burger and the roast dinners hit the spot. There's also an outside space that's been very tastefully done, pity the view's of the multi-story car park.

Brilliant food cooked exactly how we ordered it, staff couldn't be more helpful and polite, will always recommend this place.

Avoid this place me and my husband went for his birthday it was a wednesday night so it was not busy we ordered the food and waited and waited and waited over one hour 15 minutes we eventually asked for our money back which we received and the bar staff said they will see what went wrong so we waited and waited still nothing so we gave up and leftTotally disappointed with their service and no explanation to a ruined night we will never return

Love this pub for its atmosphere friendliness great nights here great selection of drinks . Food is good bar food. Only downside think the toilets defo need an upgrade sometimes a little dirty especially on weekends when bands are on .

We had a meal there for a different meal out and about. Well what a fancy place it is.. We enjoyed a meal there and I'd say it's the first time and it's one place we be going there again. Sooner than later....

Came with my friend last friday the 21 june food was lovely really really nice wasnt keen on the order at the bar especially as we were stood there for around 20 mins the young lad served my friend then completely ignored me and served 3 guys who had only been at the bar for 5 minutes then came back and served me so not good. Also a 30+ minute wait for food is about long. As said above the food I really enjoyed it was very tasty but overall I wouldn't return

Terrific pub grub...generous helpings...reasonably priced...and a good pint...two visits over 3 nights...so far... Say no more!

I’ve visited the sun on many occasions and it never fails to disappoint, excellent service every time, a great selection of real ales. The only downside, it can get very busy at times, which just proves how popular it is. By far it’s the busiest Titanic pub.

This pub was recomended by a member of staff at the Travel Lodge I was staying in for the night. We were not disappointed. The food was lovely and the staff cheerful.

Very very small portion of food. Ordered a chicken pie and there were two small pieces of chicken in the pie and the amount of mash potato was a a joke along with two bits of broccoli. My naan was rock hard and the curry was tasteless.the staff were not interested when we attempted to complain. We wrote to complain directly to the pub and were told they would look into it. Two months later still nothing and no apology! Very poor indeed.

Will not be going again. Service almost non existent. Waited ages between main and desert. Dreadful warmed up chips. Fish was not cooked enough. None of the bar staff knew how to make a liqueur coffee No atmosphere, not asked if we were happy with our meals.

I go to the Sun regularly as they have a good range of meals and a lovely atmosphere. I particularly enjoy their events such as the folk night I attended yesterday evening and pub quiz the evening before. It's always bustling with life but the staff are still attentive and friendly. Their food offers are great value and certain days you can get buy one get one free. They have a great range of vegetarian food to offer as well making it perfect for all groups of people. Yesterday I had their weekly special bar snack the Philly cheesesteak fries and their soup of the day (French onion) both were delicious and I shall definitely be continuing my custom there!

Went here for Sunday lunch with my wife. The food, when it eventually arrived, was delicious. 4 stars not 5 because we had to wait over half an hour for our meals, which shouldn't have happened as we were one of the first in there to order. This was our second visit for food, but the first time we didn't stop as they told us a 45min wait for food. Come on, sort it out! Customers shouldn't have to wait that long.

Enjoyed a superb meal at the Sun Inn. The choices were good, the food arrived in a timely fashion, the starter was superb ad was the main course. The wait time for food was fine we did not feel rushed nor did we have to wait for long. The setting is very nice and comfortable. The staff were pleasant and cheerful. Before coming into the Sun we had a drink in Wetherspoons and in the Sun it was only pence more expensive for the same drinks. The Sun Inn is a lovely place to have a meal.

We waited over an hour for food and then they got out order wrong. Very slow service and very unorganised. Not impressed will not be coming back.

As I work long shift hours Its quiet difficult to get to go out with my daughter but today we both had a day off, so decided to try the sun for a meal. My daughter is unable to eat certain things but the menu had plenty of things that she could eat, we where also able to request that certain sauces where left off her meal which they did no bother at all. meaning we could both sit back and relax an enjoy a rare meal out together. The place was lovely and clean and the food was piping hot and really tasty. We will most defiantly be returning in the future. Lovely friendly staff as well.

Visit this pub regularly they have a good variety of titanic beers and gins also a few guest beers, food is ok, only had burgers a couple of times but both times I was slightly disappointed and always quite greassssy. Chilled out pub with decent sheltered beer garden.

My friend and I came here for drinks and ended up eating here. We both had fish and chips which arrived almost too quickly however the fish and chips were excellent, not to greasy and really good chips.

Been coming here for food since last year about twice a week. Last couple of visits food gone downhill. Steaks poor quality, but gone up in price with a supplement for rib eye of £3 that was grisly and fatty. Bbq chips are just normal chips with seasoning sprinkled over. Another night had burger night... bread rolls cheap soggy replacements to what they used to serve and veggie burger smothered in not nice spicy salsa very hot and vinegar taste. The veggie burger was thick and dry and tasteless totally disappointed the last few visits. The menu now lacks variety and taste. Previous menu better by miles food was better presented, tasty and enjoyable. Sadly not going for food again too disappointing. Feels like who is cooking is not passionate about good food and good flavour even if it is pub food. Shame feels like this place needs some tlc. Ladies toilets run down, toilet seats need replacing for ones that fit the toilet.

Excellent service. Best lemon and lime and fish pie that I recall eating out Large portion of ice cream Overall excellent meal good value for money

Just visited the sun for the first time for food, as I’d heard new chefs had been taken on from a very well kn An local company. I was not disappointed the notorious P.I.G burger was juicy and flavoursome with a lovely fresh roll and salty bbq fries.

Brilliant what a fantastic venue for a unique reception

I come all the way over from Derbyshire to eat in the sun.The staff are Friendly and helpful especially Steven and his team in the kitchen I had have a mix grill which was cooked to perfection

Love this Pub.... always a great atmosphere and I’m told the real Ale is great - I’m a gin drinker and love the large selection that they have to offer.... I usually only drink in this pub and visit their beer festival but decided to have a meal out with my dad and sister this week. I was told they had a new chef in so decided to give it a go and we were not disappointed.... my dad and I had the burger with chorizo and my sister had the scampi .... not a single complaint and we’d definitely recommend the sun inn for a meal.... the staff are all lovely too.

Visited today as a family of 3. We had food & drinks. The bar staff & waiting on staff were extremely helpful & friendly, very welcoming. The food itself was brilliant really tasty & they were very accommodating for our son even though they don’t actually offer a children’s menu. Thanks you so much we will highly recommend & be back very soon.

Visit the Sun every now and then and whilst the food has always been tasty tonight’s visit was on another level. They have a new menu with a large variety of offerings. The Cajun fish stew was absolutely amazing. Will be returning very soon.

One of the best places to spend a Friday evening - the atmosphere is like a London Pub. The selection of real ales is great and the food is proper English pub group.

Occasionally eat at the Sun as the food is always delicious, fresh and hot. As a vegetarian, I often struggle to find tasty dishes, however the Suns veggie Fish & Chip, which is actually battered Halloumi, is just incredible.

Amazing food but a little pricey considering the Stafford pub environment. Friendly helpful staff who looked after us.

We popped in for a late pint, which led to another, and another....

Wasn’t all that busy at 8pm on a Saturday night. Nice decor and music not too loud. Nice place to meet up with friends before moving on. Got served straight away. Toilets clean.

I frequent the Sun regularly but never usually ear there. Went for a meal there but was very disapointed. The first thing was that I had to ask for the table to be cleaned as it was very stained and dirty. I ordered the rump steak and my partner had the Sun burger.

Good range of ales well kept ,friendly and professional staff .Traditional pub food served in a traditional town pub setting which can be a little cramped if your companions are generously built Reliable and unexciting as are we the clientele

The Sun is one of the finest pubs around.

I dont usually go to the sun pub but my normal place has closed for the day so i went to the sun pub as its near the local bus stop.

We enjoyed a very nice late lunch in the Sun Inn. The pub is very nice and is comfortable and a pleasant place to eat and have a drink. We had left a nearby establishment with supposedly waiting on staff that failed to materialise and...

It's a lovely olde world pub.great selection of real ales .got good range of the titanic brewery range good food menu .great relaxed atmosphere .good wine range and guest ales comfortable surroundings x

We went to The Sun for lunch on a cold rainy day. The day immediately warmed as we entered the bar. Friendly, professional staff offered a great welcome. Advice about the beers on offer was sought and freely given. There is a wide choice of...

Have been going to the Sun for years and have always enjoyed the beer and the pub in general. Tonight they upped their game with an exceptional meal. Both my partner and me had the steak off the deal menu. It was cooked perfectly. What...

Lovely couple of hours spent here today. Good range of beers and broad menu. Great service.

On a visit to Stafford for a spot of xmas shopping, this place was recommended by a local, so thought...

I'm normally quite lazy about writing reviews but feel I must say something tonight. As soon as the staff got wind of the fact that I have food intolerances they couldn't do enough for me, bending over backwards to offer me alternatives at no extra cost & making sure I was completely happy with everything. Clued up too - they knew all the right questions to ask!

I had several people recommend the Sun, so I visited once cold night, and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a typical pub with a restaurant area, nothing to write home about but a great beer menu (I recommend the Twit Twoo porter - delicious!) and fancied something different for dinner. So I tried the Jambalaya - chicken and prawns in rice with cajun spices. Can honestly say one of the best meals I have ever had! It was quite spicy but not overbearing, and once it had cooled a little could not stop till I'd finished. Everything was prepared and cooked perfectly, and very quickly delivered to the table.

Called in for Sunday lunch after remembrance service great atmosphere great beer and stunning Sunday lunch at a value price for two

Recommended by a local and so went along. Great beer and I really enjoyed the food. Would definitely go back.

Visited here about 3 years ago and thought it was great but on returning, what a contrast.

Great food and wine as always. We bought our two black labs too and the staff were so friendly. Really nice atmosphere and great food. I had the duck and my brother had the sun burger which lookedLovely. Thanks for great service

Really good pub with local feel. Great mixture of beers as well as the Titanic range itself. Good staff

This place has had its ups and downs, right now it's having an up! Great beer on offer friendly staff and plenty of seating and a bit of parking. There is also a new outdoor decking area at the back which looks really smart. Great place to meet for a few drinks with your pals!

Earlier this year we visited previously on two occasions and had lovely meals so went last evening as a family on return from our holiday to catch up. I had to return my drink before tasting and requested a new drink as lipstick on the glass given to me. My daughter went to the bar to ask what was the seasonal vegetables and informed unsure no attempt to check this out giving a list of potential vegetables! This influenced the choice of meal selected! I chose the duck with mustard mash only when it came out there was no mash roasted potatoes I said it should have been mash as described on the specials board and shortly afterwards the mash came out! We sat chatting and twice the waitress came to take the empty glasses picking mine up that still had gin and tonic you accept once but not twice! She did apologise but for me I think if I had done it once to someone would be more aware! So a disappointing meal which with drinks would be £100. Not returning any time soon, we tend to go there for the ale!

Love this place with it's real ales and continental larger. Really friendly staff. Bar food a little bit pricey.

Came here purely because we were in stafford and someone we know said the food was ok.We ordered a platter to start and two fish fingers sandwiches as thought you could not go wrong with those choices.Well the platter was double maybe even triple fried and was so greasy that we ate hardly any of it. I mean, deep fried garlic bread, never in my life have I had that. Chicken wings that were stuck together like toffee and could hardly be torn apart due to being fried within an inch of their lives and onion rings that we didn't even attempt to try due to the above. The "waitress" then came and cleared our plates and within 2 mins our fish finger sandwiches came out. I took one bite out of mine as did my wife and left the whole of our meal. They tasted exactly like the chicken strips that we left on our starter platter and were burnt to a crisp.I genuinely wanted to say something but at no point did anyone ask if everything was ok, presumably because they saw that we left our whole meal and didn't want to bother. Paid the bill and left.I seriously would not feed that food to my dog, completely inedible. Never again.
