The Malt at Landywood in South Staffordshire

Reasonably nice food just what you'd expect really with fast service

Great night and food Thursday night power cut made it an interesting evening staff coped well in the dark Will have be back

What an amazing place! Food was lovely and came in no time. Lovely service and drinks. Very cosy place to go.

Had a three course meal last night, it was the best meal I think I’ve had at a restaurant ever. Every single thing was perfect. Kudos to the chef. The place was spotless and the waiter and waitresses were lovely, efficient yet friendly. If I could give an 11 out of 10 I would !!

Really nice place, good food, we went for a friends christmas meal, i had the festive burger… banging burger, I will go back with the mrs at some point for sure as its a really nice place, good vibe and prices are very reasonable

Polite staff very welcoming. Food is well above the rest, the beef was to die for and the gravy is astonishing. The brie and prawn starters are a must try. Everything is well portioned. Definitely top of the list food wise for an out of town country pub.

We went to The Malt today and we were pleasantly pleased, the place is so cosy and comfortable. The food is wonderful, we have tried the food in many places in the area But this place far exceeds every time. The young lady Katie that served us was extremely helpful and very professional she is a credit to the company. Well done to everyone.

Amazing atmosphere, beautiful food and lovely attentive staff!! Big mention to Sophie & Kate who are amazing hosts and certainly are one of the reasons why we will continue to return!! A++++

Dropped in around 4pm on a Sunday as looked smart from the outside. Apparently no tables free in the restaurant, but instead a table in the bar. Seemed the difference was you had to order at the bar and no view of the countryside. We were there for around an hour and when leaving the place was standing room only. The bar feels like you're in a corridor and crammed in by a few steps and with tables a few feet back. Tricky place to queue with people trying to get by. Even trickier when the staff seem solely focused on doing drinks for the restaurant. If wasn't for a helpful local. Might still be there now. Told be a wait for food, but 200mile trip back to London we stayed. Ordered 3 pizzas that came in less than 20mins so all good. Might be good to give an indication of what the wait time is, rather than a shrug. Kids said probably up there with the best pizzas they've had. (Why 5 stars) I thought they were a nice gastro pub pizza, but maybe a bit highly priced. Atmosphere was nice, background noise of plenty of conversations and seemed a place for happy locals to meet and eat. Sorta place people take their mom for lunch on her birthday Dog Friendly.

My family and I have been coming to The Malt for a while now and we are yet to have a bad experience here. The food is perfect, the service is always spot on, and the atmosphere is great. My partner and I recently became parents and came here on a quieter afternoon (as one of our first outings with the baby). The staff were so kind and made us feel so at ease. Could not recommend The Malt more!

Eaten before without an issue this time a tadd different my partner found a hair in her food which as you can imagine isn't very nice the meal was changed and apologies made however no offer to remove my meal to keep it warm so we could eat 2gether nor even a complimentary offer of a desert or half the bill taken off.The reply the next day was you excepted the new meal and you never asked about the bill,well im sorry but as the 1s who made the mistake a good will gesture should have been offered so all in all not the best of nites,plus I'd nearly eaten mine b4 she had hers and I was eating slow so this did spoil my enjoyment of the meal as well .

Fantastic place, only downside is can get very busy , but great atmosphere

Always great waitress/waiter service for food, although the bar can be slow. Food is lovely and highly recommended, we've never had any food items that's not been great. I do wish there was more bar area seating.

Came here for the first time Monday evening, such a lovely place!! We couldn’t choose what to have there were so many great options. Drinks were fab too! Service was quick, didn’t wait long for anything and our server Molly was amazing, very attentive and always happy to help. We will be coming back!

Excellent staff, food, drinks and venue.

Nice food, could do with slightly bigger portions. Mains need to be substituted with a side to be full. Good cocktails.

Love the pizzas and the best sweet potato fries

We enjoyed a lovely Sunday roast at this beautifully decorated restaurant. The generous portions of veggies were perfect for sharing, and the cocktails were fantastic. The only downside was that the back room was quite cold, making it hard to relax without our coats. However, we love this place for its food and ambiance, and we’ll definitely be back!

The place looks great, clean, cozy, great staff and the food was amazing.

Had a lovely evening here! The team here is so friendly and welcoming - special shoutout to Kate, Summer, Lauren, Phoebe and Joe! They were great!

Staff were so welcoming and friendly food was great too

Amazing last minute find for Sunday lunch. Atmosphere, food & design of the bar area were all top notch! Definitely returning to try the main menu next time we’re in the area!

food was great especially the tomotoes on toast with whipped feta and the roast was amazing, shame some of it had to go to waste if only they had containers for me to take it home.

Had a lovely meal for my birthday with family. We were quite a big table so the food took a while but we weren’t in a rush. Food was really good

Food was divine and the service (by Charli) was second to none. Booked here after receiving a friend's recommendation and I'm really glad we did. We will, in turn, be recommending to others.

Best pub food I've had in a long time. Everything was cooked freshly to perfection and of the highest quality. You definitely get what your paying for Cannot recommend it highly enough. Thank you.

Very nice Sunday lunch to celebrate a birthday

Marvellous 1st visit, service excellent, our waitress, Summer was a delight, compliments also to the chef, we will be visiting again 👍👍

Beautiful place with amazing food will definatley be returning 😀

Quality and extremely flavourful food, gorgeous cocktails, and very attentive staff :)

Lovely very nice people service is very good

The family and I went there for my birthday lunch and it's been a fantastic experience. The pub itself has a brilliant vibe, the food is absolutely delicious and the service is top notch! Charlie and Sophie were from the second we arrived all the way until we left. Would highly recommend this hidden gem.

The staff were very friendly. It was a damp Monday afternoon so not busy food was lovely not overly priced

we went to the malt for a birthday meal, lovely room & atmosphere and the 2 young girls that served us were lovely and very accommodating! The food was also lovely.

The food was amazing, especially the portion size and quality. The draught beer and cider was high quality and a good range to choose from Sam D was our waiter, was really helpful with the allergies on our table.

Beautiful place with a lovely atmosphere. All the staff were very friendly and attentive. Sam was our waiter and he was lovely, very polite and informative. The food was excellent and we will definitely be returning again soon.

My normal visits are on Fridays and it can get busy and a bit too loud. Great place and good food though. The pizza is always tasty. Dogs allowed which is a bonus!

What a lovely find. We were in the area for one night and Googled places to eat. Google certainly delivered! Our meals and drinks were delicious and the service from Summer and Leah was excellent. Really friendly and just the right amount of attentiveness. I’d definitely recommend The Malt if you’re in the area.

As always, the Malt never fails to impress. You receive a greeting upon arrival at the bar, with a very friendly member of staff and promptly shown to your table. The menu caters for all tastes and pockets. The dishes vary every time you visit. The food is always well presented and tastes delicious. All the staff are friendly and approachable. You can't rail to be impressed. The restaurant is rustic and well present. It is advisable to book, especially at the weekend. The only thing that let's it down is the parking, it is limited, which does cause a problem at the weekend. Unfortunately, they are very restricted with space, due to the local railway line. Taking this into account, this would not stop me visiting The Malt.

Lovely place - food very expensive for what you get - shame because the menu looks good

I'd read all the reviews about how dog friendly this pub was and so had booked several days in advance to take the family for Sunday lunch, noting in the booking that we would have our dog with us. Our parent's are in their 80's, so logistically we have to be organised. I got the confirmation for the booking on the day that I booked it, so just before 1pm, the time we'd reserved, we arrived on the car park. As I was helping my Mom out of the car my phone started ringing and I realised it was the pub calling. As we were on the car park, we went in, intrigued as to why they were calling us. The bar where we entered seemed to be in darkness and the young guy behind the bar told us to walk up the three large steps where someone could help us with our booking. So we helped Mom (who uses a wheelchair normally) up the stairs, where the waitress told me that they'd tried calling me to say that they did not accept dogs. I said that 2 mins notice was crazy and could they seat us outside - where surely dogs are ok? She "had a word with the Manager" and he agreed that they would put the lights on in the bar and serve us Sunday lunch there. So, we tried getting Mom back down the steps and unfortunately she stumbled at the 3rd one, jolting her back. This knocked her quite sick and we had to leave the pub. As we walked out of the door we passed two other parties of people coming in....with dogs....The whole experience was truly awful. For anyone that is an unpaid carer like myself, trying to organise 2 elderly people for Sunday lunch is an all day affair, so for us to have to go home without lunch was a horrible end to what should have been a lovely day. I should have known when we pulled onto the car park that the pub wasn't very 'elderly friendly', as there were crates loaded up on the disabled parking space, so we couldnt park there anyway. My advice is - dont bother with this pub, there's plenty of others in the area that are friendlier and more professional.

Excellent meal at the malt today,

Myself and my partner dined here for the first time recently and the food was incredible! The staff were very friendly and it has a lovely atmosphere to it. We 100% recommend and can’t wait to visit again

Food is absolutely amazing here. Thanks!

Staff are very pleasant , beautiful food would definitely recommend , portions very big , will be returning

We tried the Malt for the first time for an bday celebration after looking at all the positive reviews and it did not disappoint. Food was delicious and service provided by Sam D was exceptional. Will definitely be back soon

Great food lovely friendly staff and its lovely inside. I found the seating really comfy!

Outstanding Friday lunch & very well looked after by Summer & her colleague.

Absolutely brilliant service by a young man named Sam, well done high 5 to him, he looked after my friend and I, and carefully brought over a birthday cake which was a secret, food was amazing drinks 🍷 fabulous thanks again to all the team

SAM.D you little whippet absolutely outstanding service sam is a credit to the malt and anyone who is served and waited on by him will definitely always have a waiter who gives his all and will make sure your visit is special. Sam will always go above and beyond to make sure you are catered for perfectly. Sam.d your work ethnic is incredible for such a young gentleman keep going and you will go so far.

Charlie was top notch 👌 recommended wing's and pizzas brilliant team all around

Tonight I took my family here for a meal the service from Charlie the bar staff was amazing she made us feel right at home from start to finish would seriously recommend and will be coming again such a relaxed and nice atmosphere and food was not a long wait and was cooked to perfection

Really nice food would highly recommend Katie was very polite and made use feel very welcome Charlie got really good banter will be again next month

Excellent service, our waitresses Summer and Charlie were amazing. Great food!

What a little gem of a find this was! I have taken my clients for lunch here on a couple of occasions now and we love it! The food is amazing - the fish and chips is probably the best I have ever tasted in a restaurant, and what a lovely friendly waitress Charlie is! Honestly can't fault the place and will 100% be returning.

Fresh food and amazing service. Came today after the malt being recommended to us and we were not disappointed. Food variety was perfect drinks cocktails what a variety. We were served by Charlie who was knowledgeable on the menu and drinks and was quick serving and seeing to our needs shame you don't do functions as we would love to bring a larger group but we will definitely be back.

The food , decor and atmosphere are amazing in the malt , it's our favourite local pub . When I finish work early I bring my dog here for a walk and a cheeky pint , they are very dog friendly and there's always treats in the bar . Charlie and Sam are our favourite bar staff , always super friendly , you always get greeted with a smile.

Food was served perfectly, the bar made the BEST soda & lime mix ever! - Parking was a squeeze though!

Always love coming here excellent service and excellent food. Staff cannot do enough for you. Our server was Charlie tonight and she was so lovely made us feel so welcome! Would 100% recommend

First time visit for the Sunday menu that certainly exceeded our expectations. The food, service and venue was delightful... certainly planning another visit soon!

I had dinner at The Malt at Landywood restaurant with my wife and two daughters. We found the prices to be decent, the staff lovely, and we thoroughly enjoyed our hour and a half there. We will definitely be returning.

Girls brunch today what an amazing place food was top notch drinks variety was brill and the server Charlie and I believe Sam the other girls name was were brill can’t wait to come back

Wow first visit and it did not disappoint, this place needs customers it's so beautifully laid out with a fabulous comfy bar area and an even more stunning and gorgeous wooden chic designed restaurant. We went for lunch and will most definitely be back again. Our server today Charlie was extremely welcoming and had amazing hospitality checking we were ok and enjoying our food. I asked charlie the name of the chef as I was amazed with the food we had and felt they needed the recognition Chez, Stu and Ryan Amazing the flavour, decoration and the effort gone into our meals were phenomenal!

First time eating at the malt the food was amazing!!! Charlie served us and she was amazing! very professional and lovely! 💗

Came in last Wednesday for a group meal and was served by the lovely summer and Charlie what an amazing team so helpful and friendly popped in tonight for a drink and the lovely girls were in having a meal themselves but still said hello and made us feel at home what lovely lady’s

Just popped in there for a quick drink & to grab a bite to eat. Service was friendly & good quality food

Just had a drink 🍷 nice atmosphere

Booked a table for 4 just because. The table was ready for us early. Ordered the cod with mussels, food i wouldn't normally try, but it was great. The rosti was the highlight. Then for pudding i had the rhubarb and custard tart. 😋😋😋

Well the Ladies popped across to The Malt for a Maundy Thursday catch up and what can I say - food totally on point as per BUT our Server made our evening - a huge thankyou to Sam D who absolutely went above and beyond…even facilitating our weirdest of requests - that being to pull our names out of the hat, to assign each of us with one of the others names, to go buy a Charity Shop outfit for ahead of our Girlie Holiday to Benidorm for a special birthday…!!! Nothing was too much trouble - Sam D you are an absolute asset to the business - keep doing what you do and thankyou for our enjoyable evening - regards Kerry, Sara, Zoe, Nicky, Sarah and Lisa 🩷

Probably the most consistent pub/restaurant in the area - always great. Constructive feedback - more seating required for the non-restaurant visitors, the big tables (6-8 seaters) often get occupied by a couple so you run out of space quite quickly.

We had an excellent meal and evening. We were served by Jo, Summer and Sam D who were excellent. We visited again and had excellent service from Charlotte W - another fantastic evening.

Menu needs a BIG overall .... its been pretty much the same for a very long time

Myself friends and family dined hear tonight the staff were amazing helpful and friendly the food is always wonderful, my only slight complaint was the lamb was quite fatty but apart from that lovely I will be definitely dining hear again 😊 xx

First time here, enjoyable experience. Well worth a visit.

Been a few times now and food has been very good and will be returning.. only down fall that we had to wait a hour for the food but the place was very busy.

Me and my partner dined here tonight. The food was delicious! The food presentation was above expected and extremely tasty. The staff were friendly and approachable. The decor Is very nice. Toilets were clean and modern. Parking was adequate, although I can imagine it would be a struggle to park on site when the venue is very busy. We had starters and mains, the wait time for food was reasonable. Overall, a really nice place to dine. Only minor complaint would be the lack of a drinks menu on the table.

Lovely food as always, Nacho Chicken Burger was amazing!!!

Went for an evening meal, the food was fantastic and staff really friendly. The atmosphere was lovely and we’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu and just for some drinks in the nice bar area.

Only called in to see the menu and have a drink,the girl who served us wasn't very pleasant told us we couldn't sit where we wanted to if we weren't dining this time. But the prices of the drinks were over priced and the food was way overpriced for us, being Pesnsioners !!!!

Everything was fantastic. The only issue is the squeaky door on the condiments cupboard drove me mad.

The malt is hidden away, but a lovely little find for anyone that finds it

Food was very good service was good as well

Really disappointed with our visit here on 10th February. My father in law had booked a table for 10 on the 9th January and asked for us to be seated all together. On 10th Feb he receives a call to say they won't be able to sit us all together and tables would be apart. Fast forward to us arriving and the tables were nowhere near each other. Can't understand why they didn't cancel the booking if you can't accomdate for large bookings. The staff didn't want to even try to rectify the situation. And to top it off gave one of our tables away whilst we were still in the restaurant. It was almost like they didnt want our custom.Shocking service and based on this will not be returning there are far nicer restaurants with better service from staff. Ended up going for a curry Sat all together and had a great evening!

Great food, but limited menu lovely staff cocktails a little on the expensive side

Always friendly and welcoming when I come here, lovely meals never had a bad one, handy pub being round the corner 5 minute walk which is nice

Celebrated a birthday here in January and can honestly say the service was outstanding- olivia was attentive and very professional. She answered all questions that had with confidence. Food was lovely too. Would definitely return

Beautiful food in a beautiful setting celebrating family birthday! Could not fault anything! Thank you!

Our waitress leah was so lovely & attentive. Food was amazing, mine and my partners fave place to come!

Not been to the malt before . won't go back again batter on fish was hard chips were all bit's.. not for me

First time coming to The Malt and definitely won't be our last. Lovely food, beautifully decorated and our waitress was very welcoming and friendly.

I had curry, it was nice. My friend had fish & chips. Large portion, but a little overdone. Like the place a lot the decor is attractive.

An absolute gem. Some of the best food I've eaten anywhere. All cooked fresh from scratch, and very well priced. A home from home atmosphere, with excellent service. I cannot recommend it enough.

We went for lunch on 06/01, food was fabulous, our server was absolutely lovely, it was just cold in there. Will definitely return though.

The food here is outstanding and the atmosphere is very homely and comfortable. I would recommend a visit but the only negative I would have is that some of the staff stand around and appear to be chatting, gossiping, which is not a great look for a business. The phone was ringing off the hook when we visited and nobody picked it up but had a few members of staff standing at the desk, which is clear why nobody picked up when we attempted to call the previous day to confirm our table numbers. Apart from this it is well worth a visit!

Amazing food and quite good service only problem was a little cold where we were sat

Excellent experience, first time visiter and most impressed. Food was excellent as was the service. Will definitely return.

Great place with excellent surroundings. Food was delicious and it was very busy for a Wednesday evening, hence the three stars, the service was very slow. Booking essential.

Quality This is an equal for Miller n carts

Definitely the best Sunday roast in the nicest setting locally

I didn't have the food here but the cocktails were great. Please note you can not get bar food on a Fri,sat or sunday. This is what I wanted but is unavailable on weekends due to the volume of people booking. I did ask for the Christmas menu so I could book but there wasn't one available. Told to look on Internet for menu changes. But fab service from the lady at the bar, her cocktail making skills excellent. Smells like Wood when you walk in, fire place is beautiful and atmosphe is very warming . Although Can get a little loud.
