The Fountain Inn in Bromsgrove

Always a fantastic experience. The food is excellent. Attention to detail and attentive staff. Always a good experience.

A super Sunday with plenty of choice for all three courses. Supplements due on some of the dishes over and above the standard fixed price but obvious at the point of ordering. Great to have so many options.

Great place for a meal, a drink or a coffee on the terrace area.

Great food as always, service was excellent, will be going back

Very cramped seating, food is average and does not reflect the price. Some staff seem very inexperienced. The customer service on arrival is not good enough.

Food was ok/good but overpriced

We were really impressed by the warm welcome, the excellent Sunday lunch and the friendly service .

Perfect food. enjoy my visit every time

Food was excellent and the atmosphere was very good did feel a little rushed throughout the whole evening and didn’t enjoy the vacuum cleaning at the end !

Having visited a number of times, as always, we were not dissapointed.

I had the seabass for lunch and it was really nicely cooked and really tasty.

Lovely meal for my sister in laws birthday. Would highly recommend.

Had a fantastic meal today, beef wellington was amazing.

Lovely meal out! I went with my family for my birthday and the staff and food were super. They went the extra mile and printed our own menus with "Happy Birthday" on them. We had starters, mains, desserts, and coffees and everything was wonderful. The staff were super attentive and I highly recommend!

Absolutely smashing Sunday lunch. The food was top notch, along with the service and the attention. Will go again.

Simply excellent! Would highly recommend The Fountain, food and service is outstanding.

Lunch with my wife, great choices on the menu in particular the fish options so we had no difficulty choosing the hake and Dover sole for our main courses followed by cheesecake and crème brûlée all delicious and completely devoured. Good to see a white Rioja on the wine list. Service was outstanding and welcoming and really made you feel that everyone was there for you and to enjoy your meal. Highly recommend the Fountain and will be returning very soon….

Fantastic place… great service from the maitre d and the young girls … like a step back in time … we don’t have pubs like this in Northern Ireland more’s the pity … great beer and food …. 10/10

Lovely food and lovely atmosphere. Steak was cooked to perfection and nothing was too much trouble for them. Staff are excellent.

Wonderful from start to finish. Shall definitely be going again. Delicious food

Lovely meal, can’t fault the experience at all. All the staff are very attentive and friendly and the food is amazing and the portions are big so great value for money. Never had a bad dining experience here. I love the little appetisers they bring to start. 10/10 Thank you for a lovely evening meal.

Wonderful service, good and accommodating staff. We will be back very soon.

There have been a lot of new staff changes since we last visited..and today they were bang on! Nick in particular was outstanding..friendly..attentive..knew his job and is bloody good at it. Sammy and faye( I think...apologies if I have the name wrong) we're also great.sammy was lovely..she served us the most.a big improvement. The food was also lovely..I had liver which was spot on and lemon meringue pie was to die for. Thank you x

It was our first time here and we loved it! Great food and service ☺️ The lady with the blonde hair ran it with military precision. Really impressed, we will certainly be back.

One of the best prepared foods and look of foods on a plate in the surrounding area.

Always a pleasure to dine here.

Great lunch time menu , plenty to eat and food excellent as always. Great service from Anne .

So very disorganised and not very friendly. Got told no service before 12 then we sat and watched multiple people getting served before 12. Looked to order food despite our reservations to be asked for a table number. There were no table numbers. Then they realised they hadn’t put table numbers out. Great location really let down by a staff team that do not seem to be capable of running a pub. This is a shame and may not be representative of the general level of service from this pub. It is a great location however.

A fantastic traditional English country pub with everything you could hope for. Attentive smiling staff and outstanding Sunday roast beef dinner washed down with nice wine and a pint of smooth Eagle IPA English ale. Last minute booking whilst in the area and delighted by it.

Enjoyed our evening very much,good food and drink,pleasant efficient staff and a nicely situated table in a peaceful location.As a vegetable lover always enjoy the selection offered here as many places hardly give any veg at all.The menu always has a good choice on it to suit all.The main courses are the best value with the staff always offering more veg if you require it.The bowl of soup tends to be on the small side but the fish goujons were excellent as were the battered prawns.The lemon tiramisu was very tasty but my friends were disappointed with their white chocolate crème anglaise as it was so tiny in a small glass bowl.We remarked on the size to the waitress who replied guess it’s the luck of the draw meaning they chose poorly I didn’t. Will definitely visit again perhaps we should ask the size of the dessert before ordering though.

Fabulous food that’s locally sourced and freshly cooked to order. Amazing service from the friendly team makes an overall 5 star experience!

Our first visit to The Fountain and it felt like wearing a comfy pair of favourite shoes. The staff were friendly welcoming and attentive. We were asked if we had been before and menus were explained to us. The crispy jumbo prawns were lightly battered, large and crispy, perfect! Mains of Beef Wellington, Risotto and steak and kidney pie were spot on and came with dauphinoise & chipped potatoes along with steamed greens and carrots! Quality ingredients and more than ample portions. A bottle of crisp sauvignon, pink gin and some well presented softies......we will be back!! Thank you for a lovely meal!

Love this place. Lamb shoulder and beef wellington are faultless. We don't have a starter as the main is very filling. This keeps the cost down to a reasonable level as the mains look expensive at first sight (£27'ish)

Had an excellent meal here for my husbands birthday. Staff very welcoming, great menu options, fixed prix menu is good value. Good home cooked food. Visited midweek but still fairly busy (so need to book) with a good ambience. We are not local but it was worth the journey.

A really enjoyable Sunday lunchtime with fabulous food and service. One of our favourites.

Good Sunday lunch - I had roast pork, my husband had roast turkey. Excellent selection of vegetables and extra gravy. My dessert (crumble) was a little disappointing- too much peach (possibly tinned??) and not enough apple and crumble.

On a table of four, two of us had great meals - the lamb and risotto but the other two were very disappointed with their choice - the halibut. We think it was the last portion they had as they told others it was no longer available on the menu. The servings we had were described as ‘tasteless’ and ‘grey and rubbery’. Being British we didn’t complain at the time but it was disappointing

I always have the lamb shoulder and it's always wonderful. Don't ever change this meal..... it's great. My wife has the beef wellington and that is always good too. Don't ever change this either. It sounds expensive at £27 each but we can't manage to eat it after a starter so skipping these, it turns out reasonable. We go a couple of times a year and look forward to it and love it every time. Never disappointed.

Absolutely fabulous, great food, great atmosphere, great staff

Food was tasty and hot good service only negative a drink had been added to our bill that we didn't have but it was rectified immediately

Great evening; Great food; Great ambiance; Good prices. You will need to book and well in advance.

This was our second time dining at The Fountain and it was just as good as the first. The portions are generous without being overwhelming and everything was delicious. The Lemon Tiramisu in particular was amazing! The staff are a credit, every single one of them was friendly, attentive and helpful. We will definitely be returning ☺️

We visited The Fountain for a birthday meal. The staff were friendly and attentive without being over the top, they interacted brilliantly with our young son. The food was absolutely amazing, we both had the beef wellington and it was cooked to perfection. The portion sizes are great value for money. We will definitely be returning!

Beautiful food, excellently cooked and presented - prices pretty reasonable too. We haven’t visited for sometime but noticed it was particularly quiet - used to be hard to get a booking before? Perhaps it’s the holiday season - staff were friendly and efficient. We will return

Fantastic food. Great selection on the menu. Booked a group of five and they personalised the menu with a name. The service was outstanding. There is no service charge and they leave it to your discretion if you leave any tip. Peaceful sitting inside and out. Lovely experience.

Lovely welcome on arrival - seated quickly & drinks order taken. Ordered one meal of the fixed price menu and one off the a la carte. Food was served very promptly and was lovely and hot. I had the Big Tiger Prawns starter following by the Smoked Haddock Chowder and my husband had the Breaded Plaice starter, steak main and finished with the cheese board. All the food was cooked to perfection. It was our anniversary and it made the day perfect for us. Cannot wait to return (especially for those Big Tiger Prawns) Also want to add a note to say the staff were very amazing and very plesant - such a change as these days most places you visit the staff are just so miserable.

Food was excellent, Service also brilliant, had a great evening!

We had a lovely lunch. Delicious food and good service.

Wonderful experience. Varied menu. Well cooked, perfectly seasoned food. Big portions of vegetables. Friendly efficient service. Highly recommended. Must book.

Great food, excellent staff what more could you ask for

Staff great food excellent.Always a pleasant experience

Went here with friends hoping for a nice meal in a popular pub. I found the place a bit clicky if I'm honest. The bar staff came across as smug, i felt that unless you're a regular you get the back of the queue. The food wasn't great, the batter on the fish was soft. Not sure ill go back. Disappointed.! So camr back here tody and we all had the haddock &chips. Not the best, the batter was chewy, chips not nice. I said I'd never come back here but this time I definitely won't be back. The food made us all ill. Should of gone to thr vine instead.!!

Beautiful place, outstanding service, exceptional food….just wow!!! All the staff were friendly and bent over backwards to ensure we had a great meal. The turkey dinner was to die for - I wish my turkey turned out like that, so moist and full of flavour. Plenty of vegetables and lovely and crunchy still. Great selection of beers and wine, the red Rioja was especially nice. Thank you for a really special evening, can’t wait to return!

Always a great meal and service

Great service and great food. Inside could do with a little tlc but overall great place and value for money.

Excellent food and service as always. Highly recommend.

Absolutely abhorrent service (besides the one lady with short hair what a gem). My friend and I were returning from a hike made to feel very uncomfortable upon entry. We arrived to have a pint, we're completely ignored upon entry and made to feel as if we should not have been there, and told to sit outside as no space available when there were clear sitting inside available and no reservations.

Came for a celebratory anniversary lunch. Service excellent as always, food is superb, chicken, pork and sea bass all absolutely delicious, desserts too. Only gripe is we were charged for extra dauphinoise potatoes when we asked for them, when they were always provided free of charge previously, and we were not made aware of that. Overall that does not detract from the quality of this place though.

I absolutely love this restaurant. Always been very impressed woth the food, the down to earth but very professional staff. Try this place out. I promise it will not disappoint. Fine dining at a very good price.

Good varied menu, generous portions, traditional olde worlde type food non. Staff all pleasant and efficient. Great to have hot plates for hot food. Only criticism, the chips were not as good as I remembered. In this occasion they were over cooked.

Very warm and efficient welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was delicious. Definately return and recommend in future.

One if my favourite eateries. The food is consistently excellent qand the service is great. Highly recommend.

The food was fantastic from the starter to the dessert we went for Sunday lunch and the lamb was absolutely amazing and the welcome was brilliant

Arrived at 9 pm for a drink. Told no food, shown to a small table. Felt we were in the way, so I drank up and left

Food and service to die for in this long standing Clent favourite

Excellent food, piping hot and tasty, polite and attentive staff. Would definitely visit again.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Really enjoyed the meal. The Happy Birthday message on the menu was a lovely touch.

Recently attended a stag do in the upstairs skittles alley. The young lady who was looking after us was amazing, very friendly and professional. She did a fantastic job of looking after us single handedly especially as it was her first shift back after months off

A wonderful Father’s Day lunch at The Fountain. Staff were very attentive, all with great personalities. Food was excellent, super fresh and pleasing to the eye. They offer a varied food menu accompanied by a good selection of wines and various other drinks. Thank you for making it so memorable…… Jackie, Laura, Sophie and the rest of the team.❤️

Great food as always and great service. Friendly staff and a cosy feel. It was quite quiet as we had an early booking and it was a bit cool, even though it’s June, but overall we had a lovely lunch.

Never Been here before and will definitely come again.The staff were friendly and attentive and was absolutely a step up from Pub Grub and very well prepared . There was a simple but very effective way of personalising your visit with a menu with my name on it and the time it was booked. Well Done to all

Our favourite Sunday Lunch go to, been going for many years never disappoints, lovely staff and excellent food, need to book.

I don’t understand why the reviews are very mixed. Our experience was spot on. The service was quick, the food was superb. A lovely quaint little independent pub. There’s not enough around. Well done guys!

Excellent food and service once again. High recommend.

Great food and atmosphere very generous portions too

Good value for money in a nice location with friendly staff

Busy country pub with regular and set price menu. Had taken the trouble to print happy birthday on the menu on the table but didnt actually acknowledge it other than that. Was chilly inside as heating not on, we were there an hour after opening so perhaps it warms up? it did get busier as time went on with a walking group and generally retired people I would say. The fixed price menu was nice enough and staff were attentive.

Nice little find had a pint sat in the sun outside.

A really good Sunday lunch. The food extremely tasty. The steamed veg a bit uninteresting but the chips were fantastic and the sole very good. Delicious choice of dessert, too. The atmosphere was excellent. No music and plenty of soft furnishings, so although tables are close together, general noise level was low and we could hear each other speak. The service was outstanding. Lots of professional but friendly staff, taking orders speedily and always aware of what you might need. A very relaxing experience.

Went for a 35th wedding anniversary, the staff were very attentive and the food was amazing, I couldn't eat all mine. Compliments to the chef. Thank you.

Went with some friends, had a lovely evening all had different meals all just perfect, service was excellent nothing was to much trouble, great value for properly good food , can’t wait to return, you must give it a try

Excellent food - quite a busy lunchtime - acoustics not brilliant with adjoining tables quite close.

Drinks ok food not good we will not come back here again and will not recommend.to anyone it’s the worst pub in Clent there are better pubs and food but not here again.

I love eating at the Fountain. The food is delicious and the staff are all friendly and helpful. It always feels like a real treat to go there.

Had a great visit to The Fountain this afternoon. Delicious Food & a warm & friendly welcome

Busy pub turned the tables round quickly but didn’t feel rushed to leave. Sunday lunch really good,we had two courses but you could have three. I had squid starter which was amazing and then turkey with all sorts of veg cooked to perfection. Service was very good also, highly recommend.

Food freshly cooked piping hot, menu varied, good choice of fish & meat. Service excellent, staff friendly and welcoming.

Amazing food as always.. just perfection, service is impeccable

The perfect place for a Sunday lunch after your walk around the beautiful Clent Hills.

This was place was nice. Traditional, busy, welcoming. However, in MY opinion, the food is average, especially for the price. I get it might be the whole traditional Black Country pub grub vibe, and it’s nice, just not to my taste. Atmosphere was great, lovely outdoor space. Fish pie wasn’t very deep, bit dry, the steamed veg is not for me, too hard, mixed grill wasn’t great either and the Guinness was a bit stale. The beef wellington was the best thing we ordered and that was decent tbh. For the price, I expected better, that’s all. But if you like the traditional kinda feel, you might enjoy it.

Lovely pub, service was excellent as was the food. Highly recommended

Beautiful place and delicious food, great welcome and friendly service. Very impressive all round, can not recommend enough, suitable for all occasions, totally recommend The Fountain !

My wife and I had a fantastic meal couldn’t fault it We are always made to feel very welcome Jackie and Nick are super hosts Fantastic Pub for food and atmosphere

Real food , real people. Steak on point 👌🏼

Great pub restaurant. Excellent food and very prompt attentive and friendly service

The food is always great at the fountain. Difficult to not choose their signature dish of the pot lamb which is simply excellent. We’ve been many times over the years and the food remains excellent.

Great food and Annie our waitress was very attentive, happy and helpful. The only down fall was no welcome as we walked in. We stood a bit awkwardly at the bar and wasn't told to wait a minute while the bar lady sorted drinks. Everything else was perfect.

Excellent food and very good service. Lovely setting in The Clent Hills.

We ate outside and had lovely sunshine so that helped! Food great, staff pleasant but veg arrived quite a lot later than the main part of the meal. Couldn’t have a tab outside even though I offered my credit card as a safeguard to us absconding! Lovely relaxed lunch and cracking puds. We’ll be back.

Fantastic meal at the fountain. Could not fault the staff. So friendly and welcoming. Nick was a delight and didn’t stop. Will be coming again.
