Was told ALL the tables were reserved from 7.15 this was @ 6.30 but if we were done by then we could use the table ! 5 of us went to the Indian across the road instead !

Me and my family had recently gone to The Ball for the first time and from our perspective it was quite disappointing. Our visit had originally started of great. The ambience was amazing, the music set the mood and ordering our drinks served little to no problem. Everything had been going smoothly until it came to the wait for our food. The time we had ordered was around half past 12, and the pub was fairly empty so we assumed that the food would come quickly. The first 15 minutes past and there had been no sign of food, yet we sat through the wait regardless. About 20 minutes the only starter we ordered had finally come and we were already skeptical of when the mains would arrive. Long story short, the mains had taken over 30 more minutes to arrive. The dissapointing part of the whole experience was, firstly, when the wait for our mains had taken so long that we had to take further action and question when our food would come. In response to our query, we were met with the rude toned excuse of if we did want our mains we had to make them aware we were ready. We had not been told this information and this made us feel more grumpy about the whole experience; bearing in mind it had been about a whole hour of waiting. Eventually we did get our food. It really wasn't worth the whole 1 hour, 15 minute wait and cost, especially when we had noticed that others had recieved their food before us, Diabolical!. Overall if you're looking for a Pub to have a drink alongside a nice ambience this is the may be the place for you, yet if you're looking for a place to have brunch I would NOT recommend. This experience for us was unfortunately terrible and we will not be coming back.

I bring my gran to the monthly friendship lunch and I would just like to say thank you so much to the ball! It has really helped her out of her shell to meet new people and help her out of the house. A 2 course meal, live music, bingo, raffle and a great atmosphere for only £7.50 each isn't a bad deal at all, drinks are reasonable priced and we are always greeted with a smile and the staff are happy to chat with us, check up on how my gran is etc. It really shows they care and go the extra mile. For anyone who is struggling alone and would maybe like to meet a few others, get out of the house and have a good time or if you know anyone that could do with meeting some new people in a friendly environment, this is the place to go. It's on the first Tuesday of every month from 12pm. Again thank you so much to all of the team at The Ball for making my grans life a little brighter

Very popular pub, went during Christmas time and it was very busy. Reasonably priced and had a selection of games to play as well. The only thing that put me off was the horrific mould in the first stall of the ladies toilets, which could definitely be a health hazard if you have a compromised immune system.

Good pub to go for a few drinks and a meal. The food is hearty, and the drinks are a party. Nice atmosphere and staff. They do raffles, quizzes, and other community events. Maybe they should think about getting a stand-up comic as well. The pub is a decent size and nicely decorated, and they have a beer garden if you wish to sit outside. Would definitely come again.

I’ve just recovered from the flu this week and I simply didn’t want to cook. I am still on work leave. Anyway this week I went in to The Ball Inn for their vegetarian brunch and I wanted to pop in again. I eat at The Ball Inn whenever I can. The staff are so friendly and there is always a fantastic crowd. Sadly through my own fault I didn’t make it in time for 12:30 which is the deadline for a brunch order. I had to place an order for something else. I got the menu and this kind lady told me that there is another vegetarian menu. I had a look at it and chose the vegan pulled burger. I am glad I did! It arrived a few minutes later and like the vegetarian meals I had that week it was cooked to perfection as the photo shows. Chef had clearly made those onion rings on site. They were not out of some freezer pack. These were made on site. The burger was divine. That bun again had been made on site. It was far too fresh to be bought from a supermarket. Clearly the Ball is making its own bread on site. The onions were a delight to eat. They were as crisp as you can imagine. The burger looked just like the burger in the photo in the menu. It was plump, juicy and incredibly tasty. I am getting hungry again just typing this! The chips were as crisp as you like. Clearly chef has got the potatoes, cut them in the kitchen and cooked them fresh. This was a meal that looked just as good as the photo in the menu but it tasted better! So, was it worth the money? Absolutely. Would I go there again? Any day of the week. Would I recommend The Ball inn to anyone else. Of course.

I love this place! They've got something for everyone! Came in Friday night for a few before going into town and we ended up staying a lot longer than planned. The atmosphere was electric and the DJ was absolutely brilliant! The staff were quick to serve, even when the bar was full we never really had to wait for our drink. The decor was absolutely brilliant, they've done a great job with getting ready for Christmas, even if it is a bit early IMO. I saw posters all around advertising events, so guess I now have a bottomless brunch to go to! If you're ever in the area definitely pop in, a great place in a good area.

Went in this weekend on the Saturday afternoon and got a couple of booth tables for 9 of us in total - 4 kids on one, 5 adults on the other. Kids were happy as Larry - loads of board and card games available to play and all food was consumed. Us adults also enjoyed our meals, but I forgot to order one of the dishes which I realised when the food turned up and we were one short. No problem said the waitress. She took the order at the table, opened a tab for us so we could pay after, and the forgotten dish turned up pretty quickly. She was very helpful and smiley. Keep up the great service Olivia and team. Dad is a regular here for their OAP friendship club in the week some time and absolutely loves it. Great value, service and atmosphere. Top marks.

Pub itself is fine, drinks decent. But the food, was not. 4 of us ate here, 2 had the steak pie. Cutting into both pies they were genuinely cold to the touch, as though they were frozen. They replaced the meal and told us we’d get a refund for the 2 meals, only at the end to go back on it and say as they replaced the meals we’d not be getting refunded. Had we eaten the still frozen pie no doubt we’d be shortly experiencing a bad case of food poisoning, how on earth a refund was denied I will never know.

I am a fan of Thornbridge Brewery's award-winning beers, especially Lukas and Green Mountain, which for me, are some of the best on the market. So, when we arranged a family meal at a Thornbridge pub I was full of anticipation. I chose fish and chips, but without drawing this review out, it was the most disappointing excuse for what should be a British pub classic. The over-cooked, verging on burnt, fish, which in itself was a miserably small portion, was served with soggy potato wedges. Potato wedges with fish? Really? Come on, people, it should be chips as in 'fish and CHIPS'. There is a hint in the name. The mushy peas were adequate, but what on earth was rocket doing on the plate? You don't serve salad leaves with fish and chips. Ever. My wife and boys enjoyed their burgers, but the overall experience, for me, was very disappointing. I am all for chefs experimenting with new ideas, but you don't need to re-invent the wheel when it comes to something as basic as fish and chips. I shall not be eating here again.
