The Paul Pry in Worcester

Visiting the swan theatre in the area and this is Great little quirky pub to stop off at and is 5-10 walk away. In this pub it's got a Good range of unusual beers and nice tasting too. Food very good, we had chicken wings to start and smash burger as a main. Very nice I must say. Staff are really really nice and very friendly. I will be going back. As I personal preference I did find the starter a little heavy on my stomach before my main but that's just me. Maybe next time ill try something else. Nice place and well worth a visit

This is the equivalent of Cheers in Worcester. Small, friendly, cosy, relaxed.

Excellent food, lovely pub. Beautiful tiles. Relaxed atmosphere.

Great good, excellent service Luke was very accommodating regarding seating

Perfect pub. Worth visiting the toilets to see the amazing Victorian tile work!

By far the best place to eat in Worcester. Never disappoints. Make sure you are hungry!

I had an amazing Sunday lunch at The Paul Pry. The cozy atmosphere was just what I was looking for in a pub. Harriette was a fantastic host, super friendly and attentive. The food was delicious—perfectly cooked meats and great sides. This place definitely lives up to the hype. I’ll be back for sure!

Popped in for a pint on the way back to Chelters and was warmly welcomed by not just the staff but the punters too. Great looking interior and well-kept beer.

First time for Sunday lunch Great food staff friendly Good value We have leads about the food and if you were walking past you probably would not take a second look. It a old pub on entry we were greeted by friendly staff . Good range of ales and lagers on pump. Sunday lunch menu was good and great prices to . Food was home and well presented. We were not disappointed and will be returning very soon.

Great beer selection and friendly staff. Had the cheese toastie and tomato soup for lunch, blew me away. Was only in Worcester for an hour, glad I spent it here!

Went for Sunday lunch today, catching up with family. My brother suggested the Pry. Hands down the best Sunday lunch I’ve had since I can’t remember when ! Thanks to the team, and compliments to the chef !

One of my favourite boozers. Never dissatisfied.

It came recommended and we weren’t disappointed! Only criticism is we had to remind them to bring our Yorkshire puddings 😀 Great food, good service. Have rebooked .

Didn't have any food so ,can't comment. Very nice friendly atmosphere on a globally warmed,cold and wet summer day !?!?. Had a nice refreshing pint of Dortmund beer a malfey gin and tonic and a huge pile of salted nuts. It all came to £11 something, excellent value for money and like I said earlier, a characterful, welcoming and warm traditional pub. Staff were also very warm,pleasant and welcoming. Will definitely pop in again.

Best Sunday lunch you will get anywhere, ever. Even homemade won’t beat this. Nothing needs to be changed & am not sure it could be improved. Went for my Birthday on 7th July. Had many Sunday lunches in my 63 years and none can beat this. Worth every penny. Good beer as well. Surroundings are eclectic and interesting. Lovely service by lovely servers…….worth saving up for, you wont be disappointed. Not tried their week day menu yet so can’t comment on that just yet.

One of my favourite places in Worcester. Food is excellent, best Sunday roast I’ve ever had and it’s excellent value for money! Staff and great and they have a brilliant selection of drinks!

My first time all good and hope to vidit again

The best Sunday lunch in Worcester without a doubt. So thankful we were able to book a table for Fathers’ Day and celebrate with my husband’s children. The meals were all delicious and the puddings, divine. Highly recommend booking.

I have sampled both beer and food at The Paul Pry. Had heard of their excellent roasts, but sadly it did not happen. Until today! Loved the lack of starter and the focus on the roasts. I went with Pork Belly...with that you got great roast potatoes, saudagemeat, half a baked apple, a bed of leek and carrot, greens, and a yorkshire. Plus a wonderful side of cauliflower-broccoli cheese. Perfection...and suitable cutlery too. The service was excellent, the beer was great, and went with the dessert as not sure I'll make it back again. All I csn say is: get there while you csn!

Fantastic fantastic 👏 brilliant food great beer. And above all the staff are brilliant 👏 polite professional a must for anyone for Sunday dinner... definitely found my new watering hole 🍺

All the love for the pry, great drinks, food is unreal and the staff are amazing. Only fault is it’s always so busy, but that’s only because it’s so welcoming

Amanda and her amazing team were very professional, attentive and helpful throughout our visit. They are an asset to the restaurant. The steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection! We shall be returning very soon. Thank you team!

My first Sunday lunch since moving back to the UK, absolutely brilliant, cannot wait to bring my wife and daughter here for it. Everything was amazing!

Booked in February for family celebration lunch so visit eagerly anticipated. Not disappointed. Food excellent. Portions impressive. Service friendly and efficient. Certainly get what you pay for. Everyone enjoyed experience and will book again. Good to see they take time to train new team members.

The Paul Pry (1901) is a lovely, traditional pub with its original interior largely intact, and very well preserved. The entrance hall and lobby have beautiful glazed tiles.

I can't comment on the food as I didn't eat here but I know from friends that the food is amazing. I was performing there with my acoustic duo and we couldn't have played in a nicer venue. The staff, the punters the atmosphere was absolutely brilliant. Looking forward to going back and will definitely try the food soon.

Didn't have food nice pint polite barman would visit again.

Excellent spot , very good beer full of appreciative locals.

Lovely friendly service. Welcomed with a smile and served promptly. Welcoming atmosphere. Look forward to returning .

We went to The Paul Pry yesterday for Sunday lunch. We've been before but this was our first visit this year. Happy to say it remains my favourite sunday roast in Worcester! Delicious food, relaxed atmosphere and lively staff. Keep up the the work and we'll be seeing you again soon! Highly recommended.

Lovely pub. Good beer, great service.

Great Sunday lunch. It is not the easiest place to get into as need a reservation and due to the quality and popularity some time in advance. But it's well worth it.

OK, never (knowingly) even been past this Pub but seen the reviews and thought it would be well worth going here for Sunday Lunch on the last day of the year as we were in Worcester for the New Year. How right we were! Called the day before as we walked around to find it and it said "Booking Essential" outside. Only times left were 12:30 or 4:30 (and we thought 4:30 might be a bit late to be eating prior to the NY celebrations) so booked in for the early session. Would have preferred 2pm but will make sure I book earlier than the day before next time! Having sampled some of the fine Beers the day before we went for a Stout and a Pale Ale and ordered the lunches. I had Belly Pork and Apple and my wife went for Beef and Onion. Decided we didn't want any extra's and stuck with the Veg supplied. Both lunches arrived with Yorkshire Pudding, roast potatoes, parsnips and carrots and a bowl of cabbage as well. The Pork had stuffing and the Beef some shredded beef as well. The Belly Pork was a large slice, a nice layer of fat and crispy crackling. It simply melted in the mouth, a real treat. The Beef was plentiful and done to perfection for my wife as she had ordered it a bit more well done than the pink medium rare version advertised. Well, what a treat. Enjoyed it enormously. Not the cheapest but well worth the money. My only complaint? As a pudding man how am I supposed to have room after a plateful like that? Had to forgo the Sticky Toffee Pudding I'd marked out from the menu. Will definitely be back.

Great pub with a great selection of beers. I can also recommend the food which was excellent.

one of the best proper pubs in worcester. amazing staff, selection of drinks is fabulous and the ambience is the best

This is a traditional pub with some good ales. On both occasions of visiting seating was a premium but we did get a seat. The ladies serving were quick and efficient. Beer good and atmosphere good. Will call again when in the area.

Amazing pub, wonderful roast and service

We ordered the Paul Pry's Christmas Dinner for 8 of us - we had never dined there personally so it was a bit of a risk... however we had heard some great reviews. Firstly, the service received during booking and then on collection was fantastic - great communication and very pleasant and cheerful. The food itself was sensational - we had a garlic and herb chicken with stuffing, it was dressed beautifully, and the herbs were a fresh paste, the stuffing was super tasty too. The beef wellington was outstanding, lovely and generous in size and beautifully made. All the accompaniments were fab! What made it even lovelier were a few little touches - a christmas card from the team, and a gift of a meat probe and pastry brush, all festively wrapped up for use as part of the instructions. Thank you to Amy and all the team for making our Christmas Dinner so special!

Delicious food, cooked perfectly and proper dessert (no frozen, reheated pudding). I can't wait to go again.

Absolutely wonderful Christmas menu. Friendly staff and a great selection of beers.

The food is lovely each time that we visit here. Love the setting and the service

Hidden gem of a pub, still retaining many original features and selling quality pints of ale.

We visited here after hearing so many good things about their Sunday lunch, well...it did not disappoint, definitely one to try but book in advance as they are always booked up!!

My favourite pub in Worcester by a mile! Great cozy boozer in the front , and the restaurant space at the back is beautiful

10/10 Sunday roast - I can see why it’s deemed the best in Worcester. Cosy, intimate setting and great drink options. Good priced food & drinks. Couldn’t recommend more, can’t wait to return ❤️

Cracking pub with even better food.

We've given this pub a lot of custom over the past few years, and visited again this weekend. Lucky enough to get the last available table , sat drinking our drinks intending on spending the rest of our evening drinking here. Then along comes a female member of staff , without a word or even looking at us, slapping 'reserved' signs down on both our table and the table next to us and walking off. No-one had mentioned whilst serving us that the table we were sitting at would be needed in a while. With no other tables available for us we had to then leave after finishing our drinks. I've always recommended The Paul Pry to visitors to Worcester , as it's always been our favourite pub in town over the last 8 years. But afraid if that's the way they treat loyal customers we won't be visiting or recommending in future.

This pub is a great place to enjoy a convivial drink in a cosy bar with traditional original architecture, bar, fittings, etc. The entire establishment is kept very clean with comfortable seating, an open fire and a very welcoming atmosphere. The bar staff are always friendly and there is an excellent range of ales/beers. There is a dog friendly policy and on each of our visits, the customers themselves have always been welcoming and friendly. There you is a separate dining room and the food is truly excellent. It is all home-made and nutritious. Prices are reasonable and service excellent. All in all this is a place to visit. booking for an evening meal is recommended, although do note that the kitchen is not open every day of the week. Visit their website.

The best kind of pub. Great beer ✔️great music ✔️ great atmosphere ✔️ comfy and cozy ✔️ friendly punters and staff alike ✔️✔️✔️👌

Lovley pub great beer and a really good atmosphere. Will definitely come back.

Loved the Paul Pry! Small pub but very large on atmosphere! Thronging with people and noisy in the best way possible with voices resounding around the room. Great authentic Edwardian decor. We tried to book a meal for Friday or Saturday evening but it was fully booked. Says it all!

Great Food and service. Reasonably priced, and a great menu with plenty of choice, I will come again

Best Sunday lunch in Worcester. Great pub with unique atmosphere staffed by lovely people. You need to book in advance, because it's deservedly popular.

I love it every time I visit. Which is not often enough

Lovely little pub e joy stopping off here for a pint at the end of the night, the food here is also really nice, the bar has a good selection of ales and spirits, the staff are friendly and helpful also

Lovely, cosy town centre pub with interesting selection of drinks. Decent fireplace on one wall opposite made a big visual impact which, along with subdued lighting and colourful bar display immediately made one feel welcome. Seemed to be a dining area in a separate room off behind the bar.

My husband and I popped into the Paul Pry to sample their lunches. I had the club sandwich and he had the pork baguette, sharing an order of fries. Both orders were excellent and well presented. Make sure you’re hungry when you go there otherwise you will not be able to do justice to their outstanding food. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and the staff polite and efficient. We’re looking forward to having an evening meal there soon.

This is now on our favourite pub list! Lovely atmosphere, excellent service & very friendly staff, brilliant choice of drinks (especially liking the local options), convenient location, and the food was absolutely amazing! We were really impressed (had heard great things & it definitely lived up to expectations). We'll be back very soon.

Nice old style traditional pub with a good selection of ales, beers and great food served towards the end of the week. A family business with a real heart for the community.

This is one of Worcesters hidden gems. We went on a Sunday afternoon for Sunday lunch and this place certainly is a must visit. You do need to book as only open a few days a week and is highly popular. We booked a few weeks in advance and know at the date of posting this in November because of Christmas they are booked until January. This has several items on the menu but the food is superb as is the service. One of our party had the roast beef, one had the roast pork and two had the nut loaf. The whole meals were brilliant, all came with huge Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, parsnips and carrots. A separate dish of cabbage and we also had a side dish of broccoli cheese that was enough for the four of us. We didn't have room for dessert but we did see some and looked outstanding. If you want somewhere different we can certainly recommend a visit here. No car parking on site but we parked Hive car park and it was a 5 minute walk to the entrance.

Love this place, Food is AMAZING.... STAFF ARE AMAZING, great selection of booze and old skool decor. Book in for a Sunday roast cos they get BUSY on a sunday x

Wow 1st timers for us today.. Superb roast Attentive staff Nice atmosphere Already booked for our next.. Very well done 👏

Lovely, traditional old pub with many original features Staff so friendly, service really good, not a long wait for food despite it being a 'full house' and the food was probably the best Sunday Lunch I have ever eaten Well done to team PP I WILL be back

This was my 2nd visit, I couldn't fault the Sunday lunch. The food was hot, ample portions. I am yet to finish it all. You'll love it as there is lots of crackling. You need to book for Sunday lunch as its really popular.

Last Friday we celebrated our father’s life at a private party at The Paul Pry. The event was overseen by Alex and Elly. As one gets on in years, one attends more and more funerals and wakes, so we are becoming seasoned campaigners. The management of the event was exemplary and the food provided was nothing short of extraordinary. Every one of the fifty plus mourners rated this the best wake they had ever attended, and some have attended many. All food presented on the buffet was homemade and freshly prepared, with both modern and traditional items served with flair and imagination. The scotch eggs were universally praised as the best anyone had ever had, with all in awe at the fact that every one of them had a slightly runny centre! There were countless other delicacies that pleased the palate. The open bar was obviously popular, but this was managed efficiently and effectively by the team. I would not hesitate to recommend The Paul Pry as a venue to celebrate someone’s life and this sentiment would be whole heartedly supported by all those present for the event.

First time ive been there and honestly the best roast ive ever eaten! Beautiful

Amazing food, excellent value for money. Cannot fault it in any way. Will try the Sunday lunch soon

We visited this fantastic pub on a Friday night. It wasn't too busy and we managed to get a seat. We enjoyed the Worcester Gold Pale Ale which was gluten free. Great atmosphere and good beers

One of the best pubs in Worcester, if not the best. Famous roasts, and a famous pub quiz. Worth a visit.

Although it was baking hot in there the food was wonderful

They serve the most amazing roast dinner, it's consistently good and I would recommend it to anyone!

Fantastic experience. Food, drink, ambiance & service all excellent. Would defiantly recommend !!!

Excellent Sunday lunch Wow, we had been recommended by friends and this didn't disappoint. Lovely staff and welcome and outstanding food. Also recommend the savinngon blanc. Will be back soon

Good traditional pub Nice choice of ales 🍺

We had Sunday lunch here, and it was brilliant, food was really tasty, I had the lamb and my better half had the beef, we were both really full and satisfied after. Service was good and a great selection of drinks. We booked via email for our meal on Sunday afternoon, which was easy and quickly sorted out.

Great bar, good choice of drinks and nice setting

Great food and service. Especially good was the choice of vegetarian options. Nice to see somewhere that tries a bit harder for us. My only niggle was that it was a bit loud. This may be down to my old age or perhaps I should think of it as atmosphere … Nevertheless I can’t praise the food highly enough. They really deserve recognition for what they are doing. And the service was outstanding. Absolutely perfect. And then when we got the bill … all this for such a very reasonable price. You can’t ask for more. Seek it out. You won’t be disappointed.

Great pub with an impressive beer selection.

Superb independent pub serving amazing properly cooked tasty food. It shows you if you have old fashioned values you deserve success. A must visit.

Wow! We all had an amazing meal in the Paul Pry. It was perfect! The service was also exceptional. The atmosphere was friendly and sociable too, just what you want when enjoying your pub meal.

Great food and service as usual.mani and jan are always so polite and helpful.we come here every week now we love it!

Fabulous, …a warm welcome, quirky nostalgic deco and furnishings, lots to look at and take in. Pretty fresh flowers on the table. A choice of 5 roasts and selection of puddings. Our table had 4 of the 5 on offer and all were delicious and well proportioned. Didn’t have to ask for water or extra gravy all provided. The staff were attentive and charming - all in all a great experience for our 3 generation family. Thank you.

Eines der besten Sunday roasts, das wir je hatten - in einem sehr gemütlichen Pub mit hervorragender Bedienung. Unbedingt vorher buchen! Many Thanks for the wonderful time!

Nice old style character pub and a good selection of ales. Loved the musical element, Classic vinyl showcasing my favourite band. A comfortable place to pop in and relax.

Nice pub with good food. Could do with having a wider real ale selection than just two handpulls.

We had a superb meal in a relaxing, ambient atmosphere. We rebooked for next month as it was truly a lovely experience. Excellent and friendly staff.

Fabulous Sunday lunch with family and friends in a quirky atmospheric pub! Excellent food at very good value. Loved it and would recommend 👍

Great location for drinks in Worcester. Good variety of drinks from ciders to ipa. Good value price in drinks and friendly staff. It's a stone throw away from the hive library. People with groups are welcome

Cracking roast on a Sunday. Book in advance by at least 4 weeks!

Brilliant food and service excellent, did enjoy. 👌

Gluten free ale on draft. What more can I say. AMAZING. Cosy rooms and great service.

Great having a record playing & choose from the selection.

A reasonable pub, decent drinks. Friendly staff and clientele. Lacking a little in atmosphere, but serves drinks and didn't feel unwelcome.

Just eaten quite possibly the best Sunday lunch I’ve ever had. Was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. Would definitely return to the Paul Pry if ever in Worcester again.

Best meal we've had in a long time. Fair price and friendly staff.

Lovely pub. Great choice of ales & thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Definitely recommend & can't wait to return..

Had a lovely Sunday lunch. Food was great. Staff very welcoming and pleasant. Great drinks too. Will be booking again soon. A must visit.

Nice pub in the centre of Worcester with a good pint, but you need to book if you want a meal.

I like the atmosphere, and stuff are really cool and supportive guys Can't say nothing about drinks, as I'm staying sober but good place to spend some time
