The Bridge Inn in South Staffordshire

Nice food for the money. Good choice of beer. Lovely location by a canal. Interior a bit dated but that's probably how they can offer good value.

Great bar and restaurant, definitely worth a visit

We had a nice lunch on a midweek afternoon after a walk on the cut. Nice and relaxed pub.

Warm welcome from hosts and locals. Beautiful food served quickly and great value. Excellent selection of food and drinks, highly recommended thank you

Lovely old-fashioned pub with a buzzing atmosphere. Food was piping hot and really nice and at such a reasonable price. Welcoming staff. I would highly recommend.

Visiting from Western Australia and visited the Bridge Inn perhaps 8 times during my visit. Phil & Nicki great hosts and the pub has a great homeley atmosphere. One of the few places i visited that has retained its character over the years from when i first lived in the area. Its such a shame that many of the old pubs and their atmosphere have disappeared...... except at the Bridge Inn !. The food was very good and the service was great. Phil & Nicki have plans for the pub which include the retaining of the great atmosphere and character. Thanks for looking after me while i was there.

Great pub. Drink and eat here often, always a friendly welcome from Phil and Nicky. Breakfasts and evening meals are excellent.

On a very wet rainy night we were given a warm welcome by the young lady serving behind the bar, sorry can’t remember name but you know who you from your pink crocks and fluffy socks. We had a nice meal, steak was cooked perfect medium rare. The owner/manager took the time to check everything was ok and we were also able to stay in our camper van in the car park overnight. If we are this happy on a wet Wednesday night in October then I can only imagine how good this place is on a warm summers day. We look forward to the next visit Thank you.

What a lovely pub (even though it's a Marstons). Nothing is too much trouble, great service from a gentle and friendly bar staff. Food is good value, but the great feature is the Launderette! If only every community pub had one! Seriously, definitely worth a visit. The service was miles beyond the last pub visited....

Great pub, great food, welcoming dog friendly pub

Cani first thank Eve & Nicki for their service, smile and professionalism. Me and my family ate here and were so impressed with the quality of the food and service we will definitely be back. steaks were done to perfection. Everything on our plates was hot and delicious. Even the desserts were different not the bog standard and not expensive. Thanks so much for a lovely evening.

We called in as we were passing through, the food looked so inviting, we decided to eat, Ultimate Burger for me and a Rump Steak . Steak was cooked perfectly, generous portions and my Burger was delicious , great attentive service from the Landlady, and staff behind the bar were welcoming. Locals were friendly too, it made us late for our appointment. Wish we had a pub like this near us. Keep it up, we wish you well.

Visited yesterday, we ordered some food and had it outside. A pleasant experience with good food, will go back again soon.

Must have been new help behind the bar. Got our food orders wrong and didn't charge us correctly. But very pleasant about the whole thing. The food was quite good and we sat outside with a nice view of the canal. We were visiting by boat and the locals at the bar were very friendly. Got our dog a portion of ice cream as it was her birthday!

Excellent service and great value for money.

Lovely pub. Catered for my coeliac. Bar man was extremely helpful and knowledgable too. Definitely recommend.

Popped in today for a Sunday roast after our dog walk. Staff were friendly and food was delicious! Lovely pub.

Had Sunday lunch here and it was lovely. Extensive menu to select from. Friendly bar staff and nice selection of ales.

I recently held my mum's wake at the Bridge Inn Brewood and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience was. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect during such a difficult time for our family. The spread they provided was absolutely fantastic—delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. There was a great variety of options that catered to all tastes, and our guests were raving about the food. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a comforting place to gather and share memories. The team was incredibly attentive and supportive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Their kindness and professionalism truly made a difference during this emotional occasion. I highly recommend Bridge Inn Brewood for any event. Thank you for making a tough day a little brighter with your exceptional service and delicious food!

Disappointing lunch.Lattice pie was tasteless and all pastry with little filling. Who serves beef gravy with a chicken and mushroom pie with white wine sauce!!!!! Won’t be rushing back

Group of us went for breakfast this morning . First class will certainly be returning

Great spot on the Canal. Dropped in to use the laundrette, after 12 beers, the laundry done and chatting with many locals. Thanks Phil, wonderful afternoon and pub.

Nice and friendly staff, very accommodating

Good food spoilt by appalling service.

Excellent vegetarian breakfast, good price, extremely friendly staff! They also have pub skittles :-)

A very welcoming resteraunt which provides excellent food and service in comfortable surroundings.

We sat down in the vip lounge confusingly anyone can go in there. we tried to order food but you have to wait for 7pm they said if we booked we could of ordered earlier which i would understand if it was full but the few people there where not eating just having drinks. they didn’t have any fish and chips so i ordered a share nachos to share, on the menu this was advertised as being able the feed 2 adults but it could just about feed one. the onion rings nice but a lot of them where conjoined so instead of 8 it was more like 5-6 the halumi fries where nice so where the chips. i would reccomend going to another pub in the area.

The launderettes OK. Don't forget to bring your detergent. And ataffs friendly I get some looks . Maybe it's because I am a Brumby. A brummie who's said bye to brum.

Stopped for a sunny day drink and walk along the canal, lovely pub, great atmosphere .... Will be back for food, as it looks amazing.

My daughter, sister and I had a lovely afternoon walk along the canal in Brewood today. We decided we'd go to The Bridge Inn and have a cold drink. We had a look at the menu and were delighted to see they had vegan options. So we ordered vegan chicken strips. The order arrived but were more ball shaped than a strips. Anyway we tucked in. I ate two balls but then my daughter commented on the consistency and taste. They had served us chicken. We've been vegan for 15 years. The rather aggressive response from the female manager when my sister asked for a refund was unacceptable. She was told I hadn't made it clear. I most certainly had. As the customer we were being blamed for their error. I am now left vomiting and very bloated because my body can't cope with the bacteria held in dead meat. If there had been some compassion from them for THEIR error it might have made it less distressing. I feel upset and angry. Vegans and vegetarians be aware. I've had to give 1 star in order to alert others. It would have been minus if this was an option. I hope the management read this and reflect on their responsibility to their customers.

I wish I could give this place zero stars. My experience at The bridge was nothing short of shocking. If you have food allergies DO NOT eat here. After being vegan for 15 years, my family and I were appalled to find out that they served us meat despite explicitly ordering vegan meals. This isn't just a minor slip-up—this is a huge breach of trust for anyone who cares about what they consume. EDIT: As we haven't eaten meat in so many years my elderly Mother has now vomited and is painfully bloated. To make matters worse, when we brought this to the attention of the staff, the response was absolutely disgraceful. The manager, an older woman, was not only rude but also aggressive in her response. Instead of offering an apology or showing any understanding, she dismissed our concerns entirely, as if we were the ones at fault. Her complete lack of empathy and professionalism made an already upsetting situation far worse. We were left feeling disrespected and unheard. For a place that should pride itself on hospitality, this was a shocking and deeply disappointing experience. I strongly urge anyone who values their dietary choices and expects basic decency from staff to avoid the bridge inn at all costs.

Overlooking the canal with plenty of seating inside and out - handy laundry facility at rear of building ideal for boaters!

Friendly staff and good atmosphere

What’s going on at the bridge inn

Brilliant food, great service, well priced, will be going there again. Problems with the electric today, but got through it.

What a great pub experience.. Having moored at the moorings below. This pub was a welcome break. Plus the fact that it had a launderette was an added bonus. The pub layout was easy to navigate with plenty of room to maneuver between the tables in the restaurant side. Overall the pub is bright and airy, and also very clean. Toilets we're immaculate. As the saying goes you can always judge a pub by the cleanliness of it's toilets. The staff are extremely courteous, friendly and most welcoming with a smile to make you comfortable. Food was exceptional plus a wide variety of dishes all cooked to perfection and served piping hot. Waiting times for food we're also acceptable, even in busy times. There is also a substantial beer garden overlooking the canal to the rear and side of the pub. For those who want to use the launderette that is also to the rear of the building, with two good size washing machines and two good sized dryers. The landlords Nicky And Phil who have the right attitude by making customers feel very welcome. Thank you for a pleasant visit to your pub and good luck for the future there.

Lovely traditional British pub, with friendly staff and punters! I had a lovely reasonably priced gammon and look forward to coming back when next in the area!

We stopped here in our campervan en route to a festival at Weston Park. What a fabulous spot! The pub is very friendly, the food excellent and not overpriced. ( I'd highly recommend the sherry trifle cheesecake 🙂!). Launderette facilities too. A quiet spot with flat parking and right by a canal. Walking distance to the village and shops too, and a fabulous bakery! Everyone here is so friendly. This is one of the best pub stops we've had, we'll DEFINITELY be back.

Lovely pub in nice village setting. Husbands order was mixed up but mistake was rectified and the owner apologised for the mistake. Food was delicious. Only slight issue, food is ordered at the bar, which is fine, but there were regulars sat around the bar which made it a little awkward to order and pay.

Delightful experience only criticism very difficult to get phone signal

Lovely spotless clean pub We had the cooked breakfast which was amazing. Chatted with the lovely manager who was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely one to visit if we are in this area again

New owners certainly know how to run a pub. Excellent food drink and atmosphere, very reasonably priced aswell

Friday evening 7pm after we ordered our drinks we were told they’ve taken their last food orders. ?? 7pm on a Friday. Well odd. Outside on the pub wall the hours painted on the wall say food is served. Rather pop down the road - there’s great restaurant in village.

Stopped on our boat to use the laundry again. Ordered a beef lasagne and steak and ale pie. Food was gorgeous and tasty. Service excellent. Thank you.

Came here for some food with my 3 and 6 month old boys. Food is good, ales are good and kids menu is also good. Would recommend as family friendly. Staff were all attentive and we will definitely return. Thank you.

Don't know where all these bad reviews are coming from. We had the most wonderful experience, very welcoming, friendly and efficient staff. Food was lovely and great value.. New owners were very attentive, see you again Bridge Inn

Amazing food, the gammon was so tender and cooked well. Very hot and tasted good. My partner had the surf and turf, steak was perfectly cooked. Generous portions and helpful staff and always polite.

Amazing hunters chicken, lovely flavour. Staff were all friendly and helpful and perfect wait time for food. Couldn’t ask for more!

On the return journey from Scotland to Dover we were able to spend the night for free with our camper in the car park behind this pub/restaurant. From 4 p.m. we played cards, drank and had dinner while we were helped warmly. A nice pub/restaurant with a living room atmosphere.

Cheers to Phil and his team for an excellent gammon and perfect pizza. Good beer and chilled wine

Best Wainwright anywhere love it can't beat nice beer by canal

Arrived 2 mins early to be met by an unpleasant greeting. Not the happiest person poor attitude!! Sorry😡. In your response you have the wrong person. We didn’t come in the pub. You were rude, we never got a table. So your reply is wrong!!! Think you have mixed us up with someone else .

Lovely pub, food lovely and drinks reasonably priced. Guiness perfect. Great atmosphere .Bar staff friendly, landlord very understanding to our needy rescue dog. Definitely worth a visit, and if you’re a boater they have laundry facilities, what more could you ask 😊

Nice pub friendly staff, food not so good jacket potato very dry and not a lot of filling very poor for £7.99 price. (Piri piri chicken and cheese )

I held my 70th birthday party at the Bridge yesterday afternoon (12th May 2024). Phil and Nicky were fantastic. The service, care and excellent buffet was above and beyond. Would highly recommend. Maureen and Clive France

Very nice pub, had a good evening meal on our recent canal trip.

The vegie burger was okay but my wife had a plate of salad which contained lots of onion despite having clearly told the staff that she did not want any onions. She was charged far more than we expected for an unappetising salad and the 'dressing' made the whole thing taste of curry. When we told the server that we had asked for no onions she just apologised.

Excellent fish and chips, friendly welcoming place, nice clean and well presented pub.

I couldn’t not in enough words tell anyone how sad my experience at the bridge inn made me. I would not recommend this pub to anyone who may be thinking of going unless you are a local. The year is 2024 yet my experience is something that I didn’t think I would experience in this day and age, they are very judgemental, argumentative and obviously just want to have local custom, which is fine if that’s how you want to run your business just a little bit of constructive feedback for the future, if you only want local custom maybe just say this when people try and book with you so nobody wastes their time

I have no words for my experience here at the Bridge Inn. I booked a table for 10 people for my sons’s 4th birthday, all confirmed over the phone, arrived on the day to be told that we have been scribbled out because a bigger party had been booked meaning they got more money from them basically, no phone call, no communication, just a casual ‘oh you’ve been scribbled out, sorry can’t help you’. As you can imagine when you have toddlers who are hungry and then trying to find where on a Saturday lunch time that can take a table of 10 people without booking we had no luck and ended up eating sandwiches at a service station. So the narrative of my story is basically don’t bother booking here as they only think about money from my experience. And I was just personally like to thank the team at the bridge inn for making my sons 4th birthday one we won’t forget and to whoever chose a larger party over us, I hope that you never have to try and explain to your 4 year old that he just wasn’t good enough one day

Following good reviews on this site I phoned on Tuesday to book a table for Saturday to celebrate my grandsons 4th birthday, we arrived early only to be told someone had crossed out our booking and they were full unless we wanted to eat in a back room with a large group of airforce personnel. We spoke to the manager who was less than helpful and decided to leave the manager followed my daughter to the car park where he was less than pleasant my advice would be don’t assume booking means you will get a table and be welcome, I would add another local pub despite being busy did accommodate us and were fabulous

Best pub I've been to in ages. Great food, cask ales and really friendly staff in comfy, relaxed surroundings. Superb.

Lovely pub with great food. Menu was quite large. The burgers we ordered were delicious though. Would recommend.

Great pubby the canal, not just a pub. Very friendly. I did my washing which they let boaters use which is amazing. For me as a single boater watching your water till the next service is so helpful. Love it. The cappuccino is great nice hot and affordable. Friendly and helpful staff.

Ate here on a Friday evening. Service was good and also the food. We were early so didn't need to book. Plenty of choices at the bar and prices reasonable.

One of the bar staff- Bobby, was very helpful this evening and I can see he works very hard.I will definitely be coming again as his service was very good

Lovely traditional friendly pub

Great experience for was hot and tasty Reasonably priced Puddings were really great Staff were very pleasant and helpful

Cracking service and pint Bar member Poppy

Love this place, always has a special place in my heart. Fish is fantastic don't bother with chip shops. Poppy the lady who served me was very friendly and knew menu off by heart. Would definitely reccomend

Lovely country pub dogs very welcome by canal . Staff are lovely . Especially Molly , seems to know how to deal with situations that arise , all in the best possible way

Great pub great food and great staff, the bartender Molly was particularly helpful 5 stars for her. Food is your basic food grub burgers, fish and chips, lasagne etc therenare also vegetarian options and the pub is dog friendly. They also have a very reasonably priced launderette.

Lovely country pub dogs welcome in the bar. Good food. Great staff, especially Molly who is always happy to help 😀

Barman nick was very efficient and helpful, will certainly visit again

Love the Bridge Inn. Nice cosy pub with excellent food and beer. Great to sit outside in the Summer too. Staff are great Emilia went above and beyond, great service. Would recommend a visit

Cosy, friendly, proper pub. Great food and well kept beer. Staff are friendly and courteous, Emilia looked after us and was very helpful. Plenty of parking, would recommend a visit.

Absolutely love the Bridge inn. Fantastic food and atmosphere. Staff were very lovely, they went above and beyond their duties. So would like to thank Nick, poppy and Emilia out front and also Vikki the chef. Will definitely be back!

As a regular (family of four) to the bridge we thought for the first time at any pub, we'd try 'Christmas Fayre'. Staff (Nick Especially) as always were polite and attentive, spoiling the dog with treats too. We all ordered prawn cocktail starters, 70's I know but a family favourite. This came with lovely brown bread and in my opinion is as much of a starter as you need, needless to say it was delicious. Mains for three of us were the standard Fayre, Turkey, juicy and flavoursome, lovely roasties and yourkshire pudding with seasonal vegetables. Our daughter had a chicken burger which she enjoyed. Its good they cater for all tastes. My wife and I had the Christmas pudding, son had toffee sponge and daughter had ice cream, all delicious. Well worth a visit. Martin, Sandra, children and Bluey.

Bridge inn is amazing we come 2/3 times a week mimi is amazing who works behind the bar she goes above and beyond to satisfy all the customers also nick he is here all week and works very hard and always has a banter and a laugh also poppy works very hard she is only young and she is a very good worker and popular with the customers

Must say a dog friendly pub welcoming and warm with the log burner lit and the staf were happy to help especially the young girl poppy went above and beyond thank you poppy we will definitely be back

Visited over a few days passing through Brewood on my boat. Always a pleasure to pop in for a drink or a meal. Friendly staff and customers. Nick looked after us exceptionally well when parents came to visit and we went for lunch. Nick was attentive and courteous. The pub has an extensive and varied menu at very reasonable prices. I highly recommend the Bridge Inn in Brewood.

Fantastic little pub on the canal which is dog friendly. Great atmosphere in the bar. All staff lovely and friendly but big shout out to Pops the bartender for all her help. We shall return

A wonderful pub, right next to the canal. The food was absolutely spot on and the staff members couldn’t be more hospitable, Nick was so friendly and upbeat. Will definitely be returning

We've been to The Bridge a few times now. A lovely little local pub, with a great menu. Lovely friendly girls behind the bar Emilia and Poppy. Will definitely be attending again...this week 🤭

Our favourite pub! Cosy, friendly and great beers and food. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Lovely position with great canal walks.

We go here regularly for drinks and food. Staff are very friendly, drinks are a great price and we had a lovely lunch yesterday. Great value and very tasty.

Came here for a few drinks with some friends, the service was incredible and a special mention to Molly the bartender for being so friendly and polite to us. Looking forward to our next visit.

Absolutely lovely pub with great atmosphere. Highlight of our visit was Molly who was accommodating and very friendly. Will definitely return.

Went to the bridge for a drink, and a lovely evening was had, Emilia was fantastic, very professional and knowledgeable, will definitely be returning ❤️

I am flabbergasted by how rude the manager Helen is. I have never experienced customer service like this and Marstons really need to review her position. I feel so sorry for the staff that work under her. I had left a review on TripAdvisor and her response is a massive lie and even called my most excellent, well behavied 10 Yr old daughter disrespectful. This is disgusting and completely out of order trying to blame a child for her own behaviour? I really wish I had recorded this experience to send to Marstons. I suggest dining there undercover to see for yourselves.

We dined for the festive package. Shocking customer service from the manager. Very bizarre? Starters over half hour late and cold, no drink service to table. Food was OK, just a shame it was let down by the managers unnecessary attitude. Won't be returning.

Ate here on a Friday evening. Friendly staff and pub was warm. We both had the Pizza made to order and a good size and good value. They were on a specials board as i think they are a new addition.

This is a regular stopoff when I walk my dog along the canal. The bridge is an exceptionally welcoming pub, especially to our four-legged friends where they have biscuits on the bar and often bring out bits of cooked steak or turkey that patrons have...

Well 3 of us had been 3 newport & on the way back decided to reminisce & called into The Bridge what a loverly welcome so ordered food hubby had mixed grill which he loved & my friend & I had the breaded mushrooms fish...

Lunchtime visit the food was realy good. I cant wait to return.

This place has changed! Coffee is awful cannot recomend. Used to be really nice very disappointed.

Popped in for lunch ,it was a lovely lunch really enjoyed it. Even better we took our 3 dogs in and they were given a turkey lunch by Helen , who sat on the floor with them feeding them and making a big fuss of...

Good value - staff are friendly and helpful

Realy nice friendly customers cheers Paul
