The Honey Bee in Wychavon

After our 1st initial call to see if they would mind us booking a table for 20 people for a small informal wedding lunch, the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. We visited before the wedding as the lady (can’t remember her name; Sorry!) invited us to, to see where we would like to be seated and offered to dress the table for us. The lady then rang the week before to confirm final details and for us to bring in the decorations. On the day, the staff were inviting and friendly and couldn’t do enough for us all and truly made the experience memorable. We all ordered various items off the menu (20 of us), it all came out hot and together and the food was very tasty and wholesome. We all said we would be back. Thank you to the whole team.

A fairly basic pub but great value for money on the steak and wine offer. Order process was efficient and food was very quick to table....ordered four steaks, medium rare and medium and all were cooked to perfection. Free wine was decent quality, nothing special but very pleasant. Overall worth a visit.

Staff always helpful the waitress who's been there for many years is always polite and cheerful

Recently visited here again after having meals here a few times over a period of 5 or 6 years, not how I remembered those visits to be honest. Had to order and re-order (4 times) due to not having stock , then once my steak arrived, although it didn't taste too bad, it was absolutely swimming in oil. My mother in law had ordered a pudding afterwards which was an apple pie with custard both freezing cold, just not good enough, you can excuse minor things if the place was heaving but it wasn't. Plenty of staff so no issues from them if you needed anything, although the lady out front needs to brush up on her welcoming skills. As other reviews have pointed out the place is in serious need of a spruce up looks very dated, although the kids play area is really good. I remember saying how this is the first time I've left thinking I wouldn't go back again, which is a shame. There were 9 of us out for my sons birthday meal, we spent roughly £20-30 each.

Just popped in for a coffee no food the two members of staff on duty very friendly and helpful only got the name of one young lady Elle 👍. shall return in the near future for a meal well done The Honey Bee 10 out 10.

Great food and the £25 deal is amazing. Bistro rump was gorgeous no idea how they do it for the price but glad they do. Definitely recommend 👌

A lovely clean and pleasant inn

Love the menu and a good selection of drinks

Great value for money food. Kids play area, we love it here.

Far too hot in the restaurant Had the heating/radiators on full & all windows & doors were closed, it was far too hot & made eating our meals really uncomfortable

Great food choices. Loved the spinach n ricotta tortellini. Plenty of parking.

Food was well priced but you get what you pay for. The stake was well cooked The share bowl of nachos were stale and cheap. Some of the Staff were blunt and inattentive some were lovely. The place could do with some music and a cleaning in the bathroom Nice little play set for the kids and good view of a fishing pond

The location and area is lovely albeit a little hard to get to. The service was pretty good and pricing wasn't bad. But the food wasn't particularly nice, the chips were not nice and the fish was overcooked. The Cottage Pie, Gammon and Burger were the best parts we ordered

Went for the first time today after a recommendation. The food was amazing. Had the gammon which truly was the best I have ever eaten and I have had gammon in lots of places. Nicely set out. Food was served very quickly. Staff were attentive and very polite. Also has a great child's play area! Highly recommend to anyone. Went again and had the bacon burger. It was delicious Burger cooked to perfection and bacon was fantastic. Highly recommend the honey bee. Service quick and friendly as always.

This place is awesome great food great surroundings helpful staff been a few times absolutely brilliant well done guys

Ate outside it's lovely out in the countryside

My wife and I like to eat here every few weeks and have found the dining for two for £25 good value but yesterday was a total disappointment the bistro steak was under cooked and uneatable I tried chewing it until I couldn't be bothered anymore most of it was left and what I tried to eat was left in the serviette the food isn't always like that but I will be giving the honeybee a miss for the near future

Good food and wine. Very friendly staff. Well worth a visit. Great place to take our visiting families.

Lovely pub, nice grounds. Interior was lovely but this was spoilt by the dirty windows. The food was typical pub grub. I had Cajun chicken which was really dry, I couldn’t get the knife through it. The wine glass I had was smeary and dull looking. Needs a lot of fine tuning and more care taken with cleanliness. None of us finished our food so I’m sorry to say we won’t be back.

great atmosphere, warm & friendly service, very clean and inviting, amazing food. we were served at the bar by Joe who was very friendly and helpful, and both waitresses who served us were very nice & friendly. Highly recommended for couples or family. We have eaten here many times, with no complaints ever. Thanks, just fab.

Very nice setting great views great choice of food good prices first visit will go again

Lovely food ..staff are absolutely brilliant made you feel welcomed and very professional.

Pleasant pub food and dog friendly.

We came here on a hot day to enjoy a light lunch. My husband and I both had the fajitas and they were amazing! The presentation was superb and they were full of flavour. We went back again a few weeks later to celebrate our anniversary. We had the braised beef and the T-bone steak this time. Meat here is incredible! My son loves the menu too, always something he likes and the park outside is safe and enough to keep him amused. The grounds and the pond are beautiful and made a great setting for some photos. The chef even drew a little heart on our pudding ❤️

What has happened to this place? It use to be spot on! I ask for well done steak and I get rare with blood all over the plate. I send it back and it comes back cooked but there is still blood all over the plate. The meal should have been totally replaced.

I asked for well done steak but got rare with blood all over the plate! I sent it back thinking the would replace the complete meal but I was wrong. It came back cooked better but there was still blood all over the plate and the rest of the food was just warm. Not good at all! Shame because we use to rate this place.

Staff are lovely, friendly an welcoming quite a big place also got a kids play area outside, however it cud do with being modernized but it seems it's main customers are the older generation which I do prefer compared to a place full idiots so for someone with anxiety like myself it suited me I felt comfortable here, food was nice but if you venture off the lunch time menu becomes a little over priced for what it is.

Been to the Honeybee many times over the last 20 yrs, its cheap and cheerful, always has availability and a huge car park with childrens play area . BUT this time , it had slipped, ordered our food and drinks and sat down. The place was quite quiet, but the staff were run off their feet, obviously not manned aswell as it should be. We waited a good hour for our food to arrive, and had just decided to ask for our money back and leave due to the wait when our food arrived. Food was excellent and lots of it. There was a distraction of the phone ringing and ringing with no one answering it, - v. annoying , when you are trying to eat and chat, and a phone ringing for ages. Apart from that, all was ok. Would i return?? probably not, as the wait we felt unacceptable . If the management do read these reviews, please look at your staffing levels .

Excellent food and service. Cannot fault it at all.

Lovely food at good prices with special offers. The staff were friendly and helpful. For large parties would suggest booking.

Child friendly. economy meals . Haven't tried the bigger dishes. Good place for tea in the week

Friday evening, ordered food for four of us. Place was very quiet. Steaks were cooked right, but had clearly been left on the side after cooking as they were just warm, rather than hot. Chips overcooked and greasy, peas not really for eating. The place is pretty tatty and soulless, having been subject to a late 80s / early 90s makeover and nothing has been touched since. Awful stark interior, as was so often the case in those days, dreadful furniture. Really was like travelling back in time 35 years. Zero stars for atmosphere. The kid's play area outside looked new though. Staff friendly and attentive, although food took a long while to arrive despite there not being many customers. Won't be rushing back.

This is regular visit as we really enjoy the Steaks on offer. Value for money is reasonable. Our waitress (Elle) was superb, as were the food and drinks. Our only disappointment was a rowdy group of customers who I have been told come in several times a week. The looked and sounded like a Traveller family. They had about nine children with then, several in Pyjamas. The children ran riot around the place, going from room to room. Also at times standing at the bar.

Always a good meal and fab service from staff who are all friendly . Last visit we had Joe served us and he was lovely lad very polite and attentive

Food was good and very reasonably priced ,food was hot and fresh overall very satisfied

Amazing food great table service Taylor thank u so much site very clean and tidy. Bar service with a smile very happy all around. Will be coming back again very soon. Dogs aloud. Play area for kids in safe place

Second visit in a week. Lovely food, friendly staff. We were served by Abi, she was very friendly and helpful. Going again next week.

First time here this evening. Had two 10oz rump steaks and two drinks for £25, great value, steaks were tender and really well cooked. Shannon and the bar staff were really helpful and kind. Lovely experience, will definitely come again.

Myself and my husband visited on a quiet Sunday afternoon (approx 4pm) All staff we met were helpful, polite and very friendly. Abi (Abigail) took our order and was, again, a pleasant member of staff. Food was beautiful and exceptionally filling.

This pub seems to be in the middle of no where. Its best discribed as cheap and chearful. We ordered a sirlion steak, which was cooked really nice. I had burger which was nice. Oven chip were probably a little over done. Total price £29 including two cokes.

Visited Saturday evening without booking. Was made very welcome. Especially Charlotte. Lovely young lady. Thanks for a great evening 👍

Great service but the food needs to be better in content and presentation.

The steak was blue to rare, when asked for medium cook. I could only manage a few mouth fulls , Peas like bullets totally put me off even eating the chips as now the whole plate swimming in blood. The house wine that comes with the steak deal was horrible. Went with a large group of family to celebrate my partners 50th. I will never try the honey bee again. Sorry guys but was shocking..

Not like it used to be :( Just like any other chain pub.

60th birthday party, well catered for. Very noisy but that's because of the amount of people in the very large place.

Many years ago, this was a fantastic pub to go to. Food is not so great and could do with a refurb.

The steak was not only big but a great price and it tasted fantastic

Served by Joe great personality and service

Popped in for a beavertown neck oil for me and a half pint of orchard thieves for my partner great pub in the country well worth a visit

The pub is located on some really nice grounds and they've got a fairly good selection of beer but the food! If ever a pub scream ping & ding this is it!

Did our wedding reception. Delicious food, helpful friendly staff, nice atmosphere reasonable price. Would recommend

Food was pretty good The service was pretty good Atmosphere was alright

Have used a few times and food has always been good value for money. Staff are very polite and friendly

Lovely food good value for money

Food was dreadful. Starter was burnt & came out with main! Steak was very bland & tough. Looking very shoddy outside. It's a shame.. used to visit alot. Won't bother again

First time visiting and Food was delicious and hearty portions

The pub is in a lovely rural setting, with a children's play area and outside seating. The inside is spacious, with plenty of room around the tables. We were a party of 12 , easily able to get up and go to the bar without squeezing past other diners. Generally my friends were happy with their meals ,but on a personal note, I found the scampi and chips to be a poorer quality, very small scampi , chunky chips which were slightly undercooked and not very nice peas . That said ,the cheesecake of the day was lovely. As the pub got busier the table service did slow down , but that was understandable. This wouldn't put me off visiting again, the staff are friendly and there's a good atmosphere.

Food was very good. We went for my granddaughter's birthday we really enjoyed the night

First time eating here and sorry to say it will be the last. The place had a very dull atmosphere and it could do with a serious lick of paint. The food was mediocre, my chicken was very dry and hard to swallow.

Friendly staff, good beer, food ok for the price

Nice place for a family. Unfortunately, I didn't think the food was that good, which is a shame. Plenty of parking

Nice old pub but we went into the bar but the restaurant. Food ok, nothing special.

Food was horrible.. Ordered the Cottage pie and was burnt underneath around edges and tasted cheap and horrible had to swap with my husband for his burger which again tasted cheap. Wouldn't eat here again but is a lovely for a drink as the views are nice over the lake/ pond. Nice play area for kiddies

Great place to eat, staff all friendly and service was quick, not overly busy in the evenings. Children's play area was great for kids. We actually stayed there in our caravans and tents as a group.

Great atmosphere, The food was slammed down onto the table so that woke us up! haha. Nice food but a tad over priced for what you get as there wasnt any sald with my mixed grill just meat and overcooked onion rings. Its always very busy so that's a good sign. I will return 😄

Love this place, food was amazing and cooked perfectly. The views are gorgeous. The choosen music ruined the vibe hence only 2stars. Will be back again and again!!!!

The food we were shaved wasn’t cooked the tables creasing and dirty The Service Waz poor customer service 0 It’s the first time I’ve been Will be the last

Nice reasonable food. Drinks expensive

Always love a visit to the Honey Bee with great food and a friendly, helpful service you can't go wrong. The location is beautiful and surrounded by fields with a lake at rear ample carparking and a nice playground for younger visitors. Food is reasonably priced anyway, but they also do meal offers that can save even more. All in all, it is a lovely pub seving great food and drink.

Lovely quiet pub . Food tasted good. Staff were friendly and helpful. The service was excellent food arrived within 10mins from ordering price was also reasonable. Would go there again 🤔yes we will visit again. Happy customer, thank you, guys. Keep up the good work 👏 .

Food was great. Staff so helpful

Staff are attentive and friendly, food hot and delicious

Upon arrival we were shown to our table but it was dirty and needed cleaning. We were asked to get a drink from the bar while the table was prepared but nobody came to tell us when the table was ready. We had pre booked earlier in the day. I ordered the mixed grill and my partner ordered a hunters chicken. I wanted to swap the liver for a fried egg on the mixed grill but was told it wouldn't be possible as it all came in a pre pack. The steak I had was very rare but I'd asked for it to be cooked medium, the chips and peas were cold and so were our extra onion rings. My partners chicken was really dry and over cooked and again the peas and chips were cold. It was all just very unappealing. Luckily our food waste went to a couples dog who was wandering round looking for snacks. The only good thing was the cider as even the wine was warm.

I really shouldn't be coming out of a pub wishing I'd taken a photo of chicken wings to warn people. It's not the right vibe for an evening. I made the mistake of thinking I would order something different at this pub other than fish and chips and went for the '3 for £12' 'Tapas'. For the chicken wing dish, I can only assume the chicken that provided the wings was a five day old chick that was scavenged out of a bin that was due for landfill. When you realise you've been charged four quid for some chicken scraps it puts a whole different slant on the evening that goes beyond disappointment into pity for the establishment. Even though it's cheap, it doesn't mean its good value. Microwaved crap and food that sits under lights for ages is not what I go out for.

Love coming here with the family especially in the summer where the kids can play

Well where do i start staff talking on phones .honey bee needs refurb place dirty furniture old and broken staffs clothing looks dirty jeans ,leggings old shirts not what i would rxpect from a public house not what it used to be like what has happend to this place sorry but not a place to bring your family or friends

10 oz rump steak was one of the best I've ever had. Beautifully cooked and tasted superb. All in all a very successful visit for mother's day.

Came here Mother’s Day was fantastic food great service amazing will defiantly be returning can highly recommend🎉🎉🎉🎉

Food was average but service was terrible. Starters just dropped on the table for us to sort ourselves. Drinks were dumped too and 2 bottles with no glasses we had to collect them ourselves. Not the best today unfortunately, I won’t rush back. It was busy but that doesn't mean service can be poor. We were then told they needed our table in 10 minutes but we were still waiting for our desserts. Felt like we had to rush them then for the next people. Desserts came out 1 at a time 🙈 took 10 mins for all 6 of us to receive them.

A bit of a wait to get served, the food was just fine, although a little too much. I'm happy, would definitely go again.

Food was outstanding. Highly recommend the braised beef dish. Staff were very helpful. Was quite disappointed with the tired and awful decor but was more than happy with our experience. I imagine this would be a beautiful place to visit in the spring / summer

Really helpful server & wonderful food. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Never been to any where so bad, food is dreadful, chicken strips were like battered rats legs and the cheeky chips were just awful 😢

Absolutely lovely place with good food, reasonable prices and lovely helpful staff. Can't wait to go again. Am thinking about having !y husband's birthday bash there. Sure the family will love it.

Friendly staff, good food, a most enjoyable experience..

Had another family meet up at the honey bee.. food was very nice the staff very friendly.. good night all round .. will return in the near future

Went for family meal 4 adults 3 kids Me and son had the mixed grill absolutely terrible all meat with exception to the sausage was taken home to the dog so disappointed

Very friendly with good service

My chicken skewer was OK. My friend had a huge steak which looked much nicer! The chicken nothing special: my husband’s fish and chips was nice m. Cheap and cheerful and better than Spoons.

Food could do with some work but couldn’t fault the service

First time I visited was last Saturday lunchtime and even tho it was very busy with most tables full, the service was so quick, drinks and food came so quickly via ordering on the app. The food was very nice and great price for the kids meal as my little one is only 1.5 who just snacks at food, visited again today as we loved the food. The staff are very polite and the food was amazing. recommend the tutor tower burger 👌

Went there last Sunday 28th great service, lovely food , very welcoming. We highly recommend this place,can't fault it,defo will be back

Visted for lunch on a Saturday. Ordered at the bar and food was quick and very reasonably priced. £22 for 2 lunches and one pint of ale and a coke.

Had a lovely 50th Birthday gathering here. Good value, nice staff and food, will go again soon.

Really good food and service. Unfortunately the place needs decorating and maybe something at the windows to make it feel warmer and more welcoming.

I had the lamb and my husband had a steak, lovely meals, it was a little quiet in there was the 17th December (my birthday) so expected a bigger crowd but to be honest it suited me as it was more of a relaxed setting. Food and drinks were great and staff were all very pleasant and nice. Yhe fire was on and it was lovely and warm!! My husband said we are definitely going back as he had never been before.

This is a frequent go-to with my family and family. The food is great and reasonably priced. See you soon!

Food was very nice and staff very friendly, went with family and a good time was had by all, will return again soon .

Great staff good food worth a visit

Food has previously been much better than this experience, a group of 10 of us had food and I think 8 of of the 10 were unimpressed by the quality of food. However that said the service was fantastic and the waitresses were very polite and professional
