Always has been a lovely pub. Just had a small family gathering where the pub allocated us the side room and it worked out perfectly. Thanks for accommodating us. Keep up the good work.

I have just 2-3 definite GO-TO pubs in Lichfield if doing early doors with friends - this is right up there! Great staff always good service from whichever bar you served. Saturday afternoons are always a great atmosphere! Very handy if like me you use the bus as station few mins walk away.

Lovely old boozer, the oldest in Lichfield apparently. It's a Joules Brewery pub, and they typically get it right. Fab pork pies and sausage rolls from the bar. Oh yeah....great beer garden too.

This is a nice friendly pub with a giant beer garden. I’d not come across Joule’s Brewery before, but I had one of their beers and it was very pleasant. The pub itself is meant to be the oldest in Lichfield. It was busy when we were there but because of its size, inside and out, there was no problem finding somewhere to sit. A good pub overall, with reasonable range of cask real ales.

A very comfortable pub and especially the outdoor terrace was welcoming on a beautiful sunny spring afternoon. We came to the restaurant to eat, but they only offered snack type "pie", etc., and there was a food truck in the patio that did offer good food, but we ended up changing locations to eat somewhere else. The lack of cider on tap was also a bit disappointing as there was only Or a cider on tap.

Worst pint I’ve had, tastes so stale. The beer had a mountain of froth on top, if I wanted an ice cream I would have went down the road for one… hardly anything on tap, carling at best beer wise. Outside is nice but inside old aged. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re popping in for a beer or 2.

Aside from the occasional Wetherspoons-type place, I'm not really a pub-goer, but came to the Duke of York this week for drinks with colleagues for a catch-up and a celebration. It was a lovely couple of hours with good company in a very pleasant venue. For teetotalers like myself, there's plenty of non-alc options including hot drinks, and there's a range of bar snacks to pick from if you're peckish. The staff were polite and friendly, prices were reasonable, and the empties collection was regular. The back section was reserved for a poets' group so the Duke are open to hosting clubs and events too. There can be a bit of an exclusionary atmosphere in traditional pubs sometimes especially if you don't drink or you're 'not one of the locals', but not so at the Duke, it was very welcoming and cosy. There's plenty of parking in Lichfield, but there's a big Tesco's car park round the back of the Duke and a pay-and-display 5 minutes' walk away by the Chinese restaurant. While the pub welcomes dogs, they can't allow under-18s due to licensing laws, so definitely one to keep for work nights out or adult gatherings. There's many a drinking establishment in Lichfield, but if you're after that old-pub vibe, this is the place to be.

Love all of the joules pubs! Especially the ones that have decent management! The Duke of York, has a lovely outdoor area, plenty of space beautiful on the summer evenings when they are hosting entertainment! Joules have a lovely selection of beers and ales, my favourite being a joules Blonde! This pub in particular has super friendly and efficient staff, a warm pub atmosphere with a pleasant clientele, but I particularly appreciate their immense snack selection! Great place always on the agenda when in in town! Can’t credit this place and the running of it though. Keep on doing what your doing guys 👌🏽

We went on a Monday so it was a bit quiet, but the atmosphere was pleasant (music varied and not too loud). The charm and character of the place itself (built in 1664, apparently) made it an enjoyable place to be provided you're not aiming to paint the town red (beige perhaps?). I'm unable to rate the food as we didn't eat.

Brilliant pub. First experienced during lockdown when outside drinks were permitted. Was great service. Since moving to Lichfield I noticed the venue was always posting on Facebook, engaging with the local area and had a real sense of community. When they enquired about trying to get a darts team going I messaged and set up a little meet and greet to hopefully start a team. We couldn't find much in the way of local leagues after COVID. So, we started our own singles league. The league has gone from strength to strength and that is in no small part due to the pub and management of Leanne and Andy and all the support they give. The pub itself always has something on, from live music, to quizzes and even a games night. Great beer, great staff, and great management.

It's a Joules House now but still has many of the original features from back then. A group of older gents having a beer by the fire area reminded me of the times I used it with work colleagues. I nice greeting is always sign to return.

It's a decent enough pub, my opinion - it's quite clicky and has a sterile atmosphere, not a locals pub. But, the Guinness is good, there's a great fire in the bar and a dart board. Regular food from pop-ups in the car park. Good pub quiz by Rob Taylor and other events.

The service was excellent, extremely helpful and polite. However the food quality was not what it used to be. The fish in batter was cheap quality, definitely not worth nearly 14.00. This place used to be lovely, have visited many times.
