THE FINGERPOST PELSALL in Walsall

Came across this lovely pub by accident... Popped in to get a drink in the day and walked into one of their 'cookouts' with the BBQ going and music playing... It was great! Food smelled delicious but we didn't eat as we had to get to an appointment... Would loved to have stayed though. Staff and regulars were really friendly.

Spent a nice afternoon at an open day there with lots of different food stalls and a live band on early evening

went yesterday for my boyfriend and we had lovely dinner I had curry of the day and he had fish and chips both were very tasty would recommend. service was pretty quick and staff is friendly.

Great home cooked food. Reasonably priced. Good selection of ales. Clean, nicely laid out pub.

Had a great meal and pudding lovely staff and great beer would definitely dine here again

Really nice pub in a great location with nice staff and good food 👌

I haven’t been here for two years - but now it’s under new management a friend and I thought we’d check out the Sunday lunch. Food was delicious, very well priced and the staff were all lovely and attentive. I’ll definitely be returning, 100% recommend. Thank you.

Just back from a wedding do and I must say the food you put out was lovely and I'm a fussy eater I savoured every bit it was that good I forgot to take pictures but my belly loved it well done I understand it was your first time and my wife and I are thinking of coming for a main meal one day 👍👍👍👍👍

Good value pubwith good ale new management not quite up to the previous owners. Today's visit was much improved the food and service were excellent

Well what an amazing meal and service. We had 4 carveries ,the service was really quick,food was very nice and came out piping hot.I will defiantly be back next Sunday.

Smashing little riverside pub. Great service and an enchanting outdoor area that is both scenic and peaceful. We will return

Great food and lovely atmosphere. Staff are very efficient, friendly and professional. Only reason I haven’t given it a 5 star review is the loo’s are a bit dated . Locks don’t all work and there was a shortage of loo roll. Not a big deal but resolve that and the place is pretty much bang on!

We came a few weeks ago and everything was perfect service and food 10/10 so I wanted to come again tonight for my 21st and the staff were amazing thankyou to the 2 girls and the boy who ran back and forth with food and sauces for us it was lovely couldn’t fault anything such a lovely team you are aswell thankyou so much.

Lovely meal. Well catered for a big group. Fantastic service. Good quality food and drink. Recently under new management and you can tell. Deserves this review.

New owners have turned it around .....what a lovely pub....friendly staff and owners....Great drink...the food smelt devin..yet to try but many eating ...

Absolutely gorgeous food. Very attentive and efficient staff. Lovely location

Food was really good and plenty of it Staff were really pleasant friendly and helpful. Food was freshly cooked. We woukd recommend this pub

The staff are friendly, great atmosphere Food was perfect

First time going in food was amazing atmosphere was great and staff were friendly definitely going again

First time at this pub, the food, service and atmosphere was 5 star! Also able to take our dog with us which was a bonus! Highly recommend this place for your Sunday Roast! Everything was so fresh! Booked on the day and still able to get a table. Will definitely be returning soon. Thank you.

Attentive staff, nice atmosphere.

The pub had recently changed hands, the food was tasty and hot. The pub is in a lovely spot on the canal with out door seating. Well worth a visit

Fab plough man a lunch there today, excellent value.

We had heard that this restaurant was worth a visit and they were right, although the parking is a bit tight this lovely understated little gem did not disappoint, the welcome was warm and the staff were so friendly, we were a party of 4 with 2 going for the Fish and Chips and 2 for the Lasagne, the fish, which was middle cod loin was white firm and delicious and the batter light and crispy, the lasagne was full of flavour and bubbling with a generous cheese topping, this was served with garlic ciabatta bread and salad, the prices are very reasonable and we looking forward to seeing you all again. Well done...

Great service, great food. Pity the dining area resembles a roadside cafe/school canteen.

4 mile round trip from Brownhills canoe centre for a pint!

Great place in a superb setting. Good, tasty food. Great service, thanks Sky. 😋🤤

Loved it first time there for my partner but I've been a few times , definitely going back may even manage a pudding lol

Terrible service, took 40 mins for them to let us know they had run out of starters that we had ordered and then after nearly two hours without food we left

Came in on a Saturday Evening Toilets are upstairs would hate to climb them if had too many to drink. Dog friendly pub. Not many ciders, just magners. Staff seem a bit rushed of their feet. Its a bit pricey compared to other pubs. But has improved since new management came in. Just about got parked. But overall just about okay...

Under new management lunch was very nice lovely views canal side pub good ales good service friendly staff worth a visit

Really welcoming and brilliant service. Food was great, fresh and really tasty.

Very nice food great relaxing atmosphere staff are friendly I'd go back again

Loverly little pub.. Nice food and atmosphere

Found staff not very plesent , we were told to move just as our hot drinks arived as we had sat in none dog area no notice to say no dogs no offer to move tray of hot drinks , not once were we asked if everything ok , did we need anything , food not up to much at all , not kid freindly , nit a good experance

the bag of crisps was lovely! the face on the so called land lady not so much.beer tasted bad and when i politely asked to change she was extremely rude and this was reflected in the atmosphere of the whole place. skip it - i’ll get my crisps elsewhere!

Nicely done out pub, good range of draft beers and friendly staff. Nice outdoor seating area overlooking the canal.

Visited on a cold Friday night expecting it to be warm & cosy inside..I was wrong, it was cold & uncomfortable where we sat & hardly any other diners. I had to put my coat back in it was so cold. Food was ok but no where near the standard expected for the price charged. Its a shame as its a great location. Won't be returning anytime soon.

It's a small pub, but I just love it! It's... something family like... weird but soo lovely 😍!

The Fingerpost Pub is a very charming place to go to the staff were very welcoming, we had lunch which we enjoyed, views of the country side and canal are lovely to see, i would recommend The Fingerpost Pub to anyone who enjoys something different.

Absolute hidden gem. Best pub / restaurant for miles. Came here for a Sunday roast about 1.5 years ago and was pleasantly surprised by how lovely the food was considering the value. 3 courses for less than £17 and absolutely no complaints. Although we don’t visit as much as we would like, we haven’t been anywhere else for a roast dinner since. We’ve recommended to family and friends and have been a number of times with family when they have visited who all have the same opinion. Fantastic food, service and atmosphere

Food was very nice and fantastic price

Very nice pub friendly staff and we had a lovely meal

Lovely pub, canal side, great in the sunshine. Proper home cooked food. Booking recommended.

Went lunchtime. Had the 2 for £12. Excellent value.lovely service.

Fabulous place, cosy and romantic, right next to the canal, with rolling green pastures, watch the barges go by. Great ambiance, food is great and made with fresh produce. Traditional pub food with a twist. Would recommend you give it a try. Weekends are busy so book a table or go in the week.

Ideal for a drink but would not recommend lunch time meals you might be better off having a bag of crisps.

Great place to sit and watch the world go by ,,great food 👌

Spicy prawns with a view. Best pub in Walsall

Will be 5 star 🌟 once food is back on.

Very nice, sat on the deck by the canal. The pub is a little plain but the food was fantastic. Only complaint was the portions were small, but very flavoursome.

Lovely staff, very friendly. Beautiful views from the decking over looking the canal. Very calm & relaxing presence.

Nice local pub that do amazing food and a freindly atmosphere and staff

Beer was flat food was poor quality veg over cooked 1 slice of beef with Sunday dinner with large piece of fat attached over cooked veg thin strips lack of gravy not very impressed the potatoes where raw and not cooked .the food was.cold the table next to me complained and had a full.refund not good.fopd at all and flat beer terrible really would not recommend

Food tastes terrible waitress was rude and the place is boring

Called for a drink. Lovely relaxing atmosphere sitting outside on the raised terrace

We waited 2 hours for food, that was amazing, but our daughters that ordered before us were kept waiting for another hour. We had young children with us, and they'd gone past it.

People that work there horrible. Had to request for the manager. Food was disgusting and overall i would rate less than 1 star on total. NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN! RUBBISH PLACE!

we went to the fingerpost for sunday roast lunch but the beef wasnt cooked propley and the other stuff like veg and potatoes wasent cooked at all on the 9th of july 2023 me and my mum was disopointed we wont be going back there

Perfect location for a Saturday lunch -Fantastic fish and chips

If you haven’t already been make sure you visit, you will not be disappointed.

Food was excellent as I remember, but them made me walk 3 miles because of theirs fault without any compensation, that's why service on one,, I'd do 2 star after chat, but it is for next customers

Waited far too long to be served. Served people out of the queue first.

Only one person behind bar waited for two people to be served and then was bypassed by people that came in after me obviously knowing the staff, will not be back dreadful service.

Felt a little bit like I was not allowed to be there. The food was great and I loved the surroundings but vibes given from staff weren't all that friendly. I'd go back but maybe I'd ring ahead first and check whether the staff were smiling. All in all, 3 stars out of 5.

Great Sunday lunch, warm fudge cake was beautiful. Sat outside overlooking the canal on a Sunny day...perfect

Friendly staff lovely pub reasonable food

Lovely .going back in summer sit on the patio

The Finger Post used to be a good local pub serving real ale and good food, and we would regularly visit the pub for a meal when in the area. Post COVID and visiting the area, we have twice pulled in to the pub. On the first occasion, February 2023, told the kitchen wasn't open, no staff, open tomorrow. Just a one off? No popped in today and told kitchen not open, open tomorrow. Don't waste your time with a weekday lunch visit. Turning away families is a loss of £25 - £30 a head. Shan't bother again.

Got to say the food was excellent 👌 little quiet in there shame really seems good atmosphere

Great friendly timely service. Super view. From inside because it was raining but there's a lovely canalside terrace. The homemade meat ravioli was very nice. Fish and chips, nachos and fries were good.

Greatest pub in Pelsall! Tasty food, quality pints on draught and a fab view of the Canal out back. Outdoor seating area and dogs welcome. Fantastic for sunny days with friends or a nice meal with the family

Welcoming enough ,the prices however are more fitting for City Centre venues as in too expensive for what it is.

Cold a bit smelly. £15 steak was a tiny meal and steak dry I won't be revisiting

Possibly the worst meal I've ever had. An absolute joke. The "croquettes" were just dollops of mashed potato with no breading, plopped on some yellow lettuce, and the pork belly was rubbery and undercooked. Avoid.

Lovely meal and very pleasant staff

had nice meal today and nice pint with friends be going again

Excellent food and reasonable prices. Good Service, lovely, friendly pub.

Food was basic but enjoyable. Lovely staff and atmosphere. 👌

It's been there for years it's food brilliant service brilliant

Excellent meal with my husband's art society. Service and food can't be faulted. Thanks for a lovely evening

Nice for a lunchtime drink and nice walk along the canal

Went here for the first time for a Sunday dinner, my only criticism was that my Yorkshire pudding was a bit burnt.

Very cosy place to have an evening meal. Fair prices and generous portions. Very friendly staff. Would definitely return.

This is a really nice place, right next to a canal which is great to walk the dog. I was struggling to find a pub locally that allowed dogs and came across this pub whilst driving around. The food is really good and great prices too! There's always a warm welcome for us, especially my dog Jagger. A proper pub

Nice clean pub. Good food menu. Good priced drinks

Great steak cooked exactly how I liked it and a massive dessert afterward - yum!

Not the best meal we've had was quite so don't know what happened

First time coming here today, I work as a groomer at K9 Core kennels which is just 3 min drive away. Wish I’d come sooner! Wow! Mum and I went in for a quick lunch with our 3 dogs, service was fantastic, food was deliciously homemade. Will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu. Thanks so much!

Nice local pub/restaurant next to the canal. Been here a few times and it's definitely improved in recent years compared to how it used to be. Nice atmosphere and nice location and good food/drinks.

Friendly staff and good location by the canal.

My local.. can't go womg.. canalside and friendly staff..the manager can come a cross a bit moody at times and the drinks aren't cheap but location is lovely

Good range of dishes including small plates, grills and traditional mains. We had the Kleftico and steaks which were delicious and good value at about £13. Comfortable dining, good location / views of canal. Friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommend.

Popped in on the off chance this evening for a bite to eat and we weren't disappointed. Wife had the BBQ chicken burger, I had the sirloin. Both really well cooked and delicious. Drinks were slightly pricey, but no moans as the food was really reasonable. Will certainly be going back.

Had a private function here great buffet and views

Excellent meal, professional helpful and polite staff, would highly recommend a visit

Great Food and very accommodating

Although we went for a sad occasion I found all the staff were very helpful and helped to make the occasion relaxing

Great food very reasonable . Good atmosphere 2nd visit so far. Great menu .

We had lunch there today and the whole experience was trouble free. Menu, order, food, eat, simple as that no problems. The menu is straightforward and the prices are excellent, just how going to the pub to eat used to be. The price you pay for the meal you get is perfect, no frills or add on’s at your expense, No prices with hidden extras just good, honest pub food with a drink and a view of Canal life. Perfect! 🙏
