The Plough Beefeater Grill in Solihull - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Again the plough delivered with the breakfast, fresh hot and as much as you like. Young lad that served us (glasses and tattoos) very friendly. (Connor I believe).

First time back to a Beefater since we went regularly with our family many years ago. Disappointed not in the slightest we had a very warm welcome and the three girls that served us were friendly and very helpful. In fact its nice to have...

I visited the Beefeater on sunday late afternoon with the family. I have to say we had a great meal and it also had a lovely atmosphere. While we was sat having dinner the lady seemed to be having a rant at the manager and...

Fantastic Friday family meal. We have used many beefeaters around the area, and this evenings meal was the best we have experienced in a long time. The service from the staff was great, greeted as soon as we walked through the door, sat straight away,...

Thank you to Claire, as she has taken the time to know the in's and out's of the menu and was able to confirm to me what was Vegan on the menu, including being able to tell me if a meal can be made Vegan...

As soon as we arrived we was made to feel special, by our servers Donna and Claire, lovely welcoming smile by both. The food at the Plough was excellent, cooked to perfection, lovely and hot. Donna checked on us and made sure we had everthing...

We've come here as a family for years, and have many happy memories of good meals. We've had excellent service and great food over the years.

Awful food had a Sunday roast, vegetables was cold, stuffing so tough couldn't get the fork though it, meat full of fat, Told the waiting staff but they didn't care.

came for my daughters 4th birthday on the 3rd september, waitress Rachel went out of her way from the start, amazing service, for both adults and children, thank you rachel ❤️

Beefeater was the first place we'd been too since covid started, so its been a while, and i expected people to be a bit rusty on customer service, but it was brilliant.

Went here for a quick meal before going home in Devon service amazing people very nice and food was great. Bar staff very chatty and helpful would definitely recommend and 100% would return 😀

Came here as a stop off on the way down south on holiday. We holiday down south every year and do the same thing each time, find a beefeater for breakfast to break the journey up. We had never stopped at the plough before so...

I am a regular visitor to this beefeater due to business commitments and tonight I felt the need to do a review. As usual in the evening all the waiting staff were exceptional in regards to customer service and the food tonight deserved praise. A...

Found a 8 legged friend in my food - when I found him he or she only had 2 legs left…🤮 — bar staff haven’t got a clue… poor all round really.

Customer service was outstanding, great atmosphere and lovely food. Why stop at motorway service’s when this is so close?! Would definitely recommend and will be back

We had kids meal (tortillas, burger), steak and then ribs/chicken combo. I will review the food and then the service. Kids - The kids tortillas came with a mint yoghurt and some chopped tomatoes - just completely missed the mark on these they could have...

Great food, fantastic service, looking forward to return soon too. The signage to follow was a challenge but was we were helped by the staff.

We were staying at the premier inn for a couple of nights for business. On the Friday night, we decided to eat at the Plough. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were made so welcomed by all the staff especially...

It was my first Father’s Day so my wife and 11 months old daughter took me out for lunch. The food was superb, presented well and tasted gorgeous. Our waitress was extremely helpful, she offered to get our little girls meal out slightly before ours...

Visited for Father's Day meal and had the most delicious sirloin steak I've had in a long time. Starters and other meals were also very tasty. Service impeccable. A real pleasure to dine here again at The Plough

We had Donna as our server, she was very helpful and accommodating. We had a great time out and can’t wait to go again

I have been coming here with my Mum for 12 years & we have never been disappointed. The steaks are amazing. We are always well looked after & it is extremely good value for money. I eat out regularly & even though I have eaten...

We broke our journey at the Solihull Premier Inn and booked dinner and breakfast at the adjoining Plough Beefeater. Dinner was very disappointing. We ordered the potato dippers and mushroom starters and although the mushrooms were tasty the dippers had so little cheese and onion...

We ate at this pub twice this weekend, once Saturday evening and for Breakfast on the Sunday morning. Both of these times, were exceptional service. On Saturday evening, we were served by Aika who was absolutely lovely. She was chatty, quick with the orders and...

Took my mom for lunch at the plough today for her birthday, we was able to eat indoors too. Our food was lovely, hot and very tasty, the puddings were delicious and the wine went down a treat 😋. Our waitress was Donna, she was...

Emma is fantastic along with all the staff working there. We have been twice since they reopened and the table service and customer service is excellent, nothing is too much trouble. Well done guys x

Amazing service, Hanah was brilliant at making sure we enjoyed our evening. I will definitely be going back and would recommend it to everyone looking for a great time & great vibes.

Went here for a date with my husband - blown away by the service and the food! The food tasted amazing, we had the sirloin and would highly recommend! Debbie was our waitress and she was lovely, very polite and friendly! She did everything she...

Hadn't been the plough in a while so was very looking forward to visiting this evening and I certainly was not disappointed. The food was outstanding and I couldn't fault the service what so ever. Rachel the waitress was very accommodating during these challenging times,...

If you’ve not been here for a while it’s time to give the place another try, I hadn’t been for some time and had found the place to be mediocre the last few times I’d been (though sometime ago) wow has it changed, the food...

Working away from home is tough and spending night after night in hotels is pretty grim especially during covid. The only thing i look forward to is my evening meal in this restaurant. Amanda and Becky serve me most nights and they never fail to...

First tome since COVID and it was birthday occasion and everything was clear from the second we walked threw the door, they have very clear social distancing in place which was very comforting.food was hot and delicious our service was amazing aswell extremely happy staff...

Attended tonight at 7pm.Three adults all had different meals. The service was excellent. The food was hot and delicious. The measures put in place to add social distancing were clear and the restaurant well laid out with clear Perspex between the tables that can not...

We had another lovely evening out on Saturday at the Plough. Our server Donna, is always friendly and helpful, and knowledgeable. It’s always nice to be welcomed back as a valued customer. The food is extremely good, and the other staff Emma and Alison who...

The table service was very nice and welcoming and the food was good as well HOWEVER the lady managing the bookings was extremely rude. At first impressions she seemed just stressed but by the time we were leaving the restaurant her attitude was abusive and...

Came in on Tuesday morning for breakfast... I had a full English which hit the spot.. thank you to waitress Maya for the amazing service!!!

Just had Chicken and ribs on the half price, eat out to help out Scheme cost £7.25 instead of £14.50. It was very poor to say the least even at half price! Will definitely not be returning even if they half price it again to...

Lovely last minute meal, staff were super helpful finding us a table on a busy Monday, our waitress Alison was so nice and friendly, made the night. Couldn’t fault the food either, spot on, can’t wait to come again!

Had a very good fillet served with all care and attention by nice staff. What else can you wish more for a good meal? Will return and strongly recomend

Went day after reopening and how lovely, felt safe and staff couldn’t have been more friendlier, great food and service, lovely red headed manager seemed to be in control.

Visited on Sunday a little bit apprehensive due to all the restrictions, needn't have worried we were very well looked after by the lovely Donna, who always makes our visit a pleasure. Not quite the same but only to be expected, we both had steaks...

Stopped on way to airport for a Sunday lunch ..it is a carvery so you put your own vegetables yourself was ok not something we would normally do but it was tasty and efficient busy place so the staff were running around cleaning tables and...

We stayed in the Premier Inn as we were visiting Crufts and ate in The Plough, which is next door. Food was lovely but the staff made the visit extra special ... our server, Alison, was so friendly and lovely that we were chuffed to...

We stayed at the premier inn and ate here. When we arrived, we were seated by a girl who didnt even look at us. Basically put us in a corner away from everyone and walked off. Waited 20 mins before someone came to take our...

Food good but like other beefeaters we have visited, they always seem to be understaffed. Have walked out before after waiting over an hour for our meal to arrive.

Ordered baked Camembert drizzled with honey. Lovely. However it came with 3 of the thinnest slices of bread I’ve seen since Twiggy. When I asked for more bread was told it’d cost me 50p. The bread is in no way sufficient to enable you to...

An absolute disappointment! Where to begin...... our waitress did not seem very welcoming at all I believe her name was Donna, drinks and starters were both bought out in a reasonable time to be fair. When our mains came out my steak was hideously over...

Not a great experience for dinner or breakfast. Bar staff so so miserable, waitress Rachel was the only highlight of the night. Food was ok but overpriced for what it is. Breakfast has a good choice but awful coffee and the cooked breakfast to order...

Great staff great menu, 8 of us turned up after 9pm were taken to a table straight away, food was good and came out quick, the waitress brought out extra bowls of fries for the centre of the table, great place will be back next...

A quiet Sunday afternoon provided lots of free tables for a spur-of-the-moment stop for lunch. However, we waiting over 40 minutes for our food to arrive and when it did, we rather wished it hadn't! My friend and I had both ordered the roast lamb,...

We are in the area regularly and usually visit this restaurant once during our stay as it's always met expectations. Booking was easy on line even on New Year Eve and we were looking forward to our evening out. Our taxi arrived early and on...

Much better. Came here a couple years ago and the food was so so, decent portion sizes , but seriously lacked flavour. Hence the lengthy return and wasn't expecting too much. This time around loved it. Portion sizes were generous as before. However they've really...

We come her quite often and the place is getting better and better every time we come. The staff are friendly the food is reasonably priced and great quality will definitely recommend

Just called in for a last minute meal early Saturday evening , place was pretty busy. Our waitress Donna M done an amazing job looking after us and everyone else don't know how she does it,and always with a smile. Food was delicious as a...

Manager was really miserable showing us to our table! Waited 20 minutes before anyone came over to serve us had to get up and ask the waitress to come over who never apologised! Wasn’t even that busy! Kids wanted burgers with cheese and bacon no...

We booked a table for 12 for a family get-together. The staff were friendly, the service was good, so was the food. Was the food Michelin Star quality? No, but I'm paying £20 for three courses off the Festive Menu, it's the sweet spot between...

The place seems worn, tied with little atmosphere. The food was horrible ending in returning it. It's a shame as the staff their are excellent

Lovely food. Good presentation. Hot ! Service a little slow but it is Christmas and the restaurant was busy. Waitress an absolute delight helped by a very pleasant young man. Cannot fault a thing, except the weather !! Can thoroughly recommend.

This is no go back to food was rubbish the cheif do not cook proper food it’s all frozen Flavourless. Sauces are pre packed warmed up in hot water. A poor standard of a restaurant to cook food tasteless. Will never visit again stay away...

Booked a family meal for a Saturday night,arrived on time ordered five main courses which took over an hour to arrive and when they did come they were sent back as cold most likely had been sitting around for ages A further 20 minutes to...

Another great evening at the Plough. Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and great service from Rachel and Emma

Visited on 28th Septemer table not laid and other tables had not been cleared service a little slow due to lack of staff. Standard of food not up to usual standard and husband was ill afterwards, delay in writing review as have been in contact...

Restaurant staff were friendly and helpful. The service for extremely good and the quality of the food was nice. We would happily eat here again.

Two weeks on the row, excellent food and service by Sophie. Many thanks. Best beefeater by far. Our regular.

I visited Saturday night with my family for a meal and it was beautiful. waitress was friendly chatty and full of Christmas spirit my children loved being served by her. will definitely be revisiting. Can’t remember her name she had pink hair and wearing Christmas...

First time we have been to this Beefeater and by far the best, excellent staff and the food was far more superior to our local beefeater THE GEORGE IN THE TREE. If only they all kept to this standard. Many thanks we have found our...

Had a nice meal here with family. Two of us had steak and the other ribs and all were lovely meals. Abit on the expensive side but we did have a voucher. The chips are out of this world and they are unlimited. Service was...

Excellent new cocktails made Sunday lunch a very pleasant experience. Matthew the bar man served 2 delicious cocktails, Ruby Blitz and Gentlemen’s Pimms, great prices, easy to drink for lunch, well done Plough

Kids food was great - they wolfed down there meals. Adult meals were poor value for money. Food had just been thrown on the plate and chips must have been cooked in advance as they were Luke warm. Wife’s lasagne was burnt. Sent back and...

We were seated by our very friendly waiter Rachel. When we ordered our food came very quickly and was yummy! Overall I will be coming here again due to the friendly staff team and great food!

Getting to the table was slow, for no apparent reason. Once there Rachel was excellent, she was efficient and helpful whilst being very engaging.

We use this Beefeater very often and the staff are lovely, never generally have a problem with food (the odd occasion maybe but in years can’t complain everyone has a bad day) but twice now I have had the Sunday dinner and have been very...

Couldn’t ask for better service. The premier inn behind forgot to book my table for 7pm. Naturally I went for my reservation to be told they hadn’t called it through. So no drama they quickly and efficiently found me a table and took my orders....

We’ve used this restaurant many times and we’ve always had good food and service, there’s always a good range of variety on the menu and I can highly recommend the Doombar pie with mash...... absolutely delicious, plenty of filling in the pie, the pastry was...

The breakfast venue for the premier inn opposite. The sign says ‘wait to be seated’ but there was no one there. After a couple of mins we went and found someone. It took quite a while for the orders to be taken, even though the...

First time here for me and my partner. We orderd food (lamb burger & bacon and cheese burger and drinks, which arrived fairly quickly, considering how busy they were. lovely service by two ladys. Really pleased overall would visit again.

We visited this restaurant on Wed.30tn.October and were very impressed by the service given by Rachel. From the minute we arrived to the end of our visit she never stopped working and seemed to be keeping the whole place going,so much so that we thought...

Just came back home from visiting the Plough. Top quality staff, food and atmosphere, although the temperature could do with turning up. Other than that, excellent all round. Special mention to Alison B and Rachel for being so welcoming and attentive.

Stayed at the premier inn and came to the beefeater for our tea. The staff were lovely they couldn’t do enough for us. The food was delicious we will recommend the plough to our family and friends

Came to the Plough for a family meal, our steaks were cooked to perfection,Aika was our waitress and did a brilliant job looking after us and making sure we were happy. Highly recommend the plough to everyone.

Visited this Beefeater on a business trip this weekend . Enjoyed my meal very much and the young man that asked me if I wanted anything else with my meal and drinks etc had excellent manors and deserves somerecognition . Believe his name was Ethan and the waitress that served me also was friendly and attentive . Very nice food and good service . Hope to visit again .

Stayed in adjacent Premier Inn because we were going to a concert at NEC. We bought the meal deal which included evening meal and breakfast. Just speaking for my own meal, my wife and son had similar problems, my salmon for my evening meal was undercooked. For my breakfast, my black pudding was under cooked and cold and my grilled tomato tasted like it had come straight from the fridge. I am not blaming the waitresses as they were busy but the cook needs talked to. This was not an acceptable standard.

The staff must be paid so poorly because they can’t even crack a smile. The service was so slow and depressing. We had to wait 45 minutes for our food and when our food arrived it was okay. My sisters chips were still uncooked. We did not feel a friendly welcome at all. It was a Friday but the Friday feeling was not there at all. Way over priced for what you get! Don’t rush yourself to try this restaurant

Was served by Rachael who I have to say was a credit to the company. Extremely friendly and helpful and quick to serve the food and drinks. Food was good and plentiful. Only criticism was the steak on my mixed grill was more rare than well done. Other than that no complaints.

Went for a meal, asked for a salmon, not cooked enough, had to send it back. Husband had a steak, asked it to be really well done, could still see pink. Poor value for money, wouldn't recommend.

We visited this restaurant on the way back to the hotel after a long day in training. What a disappointment the place needs to be cleaned as the menus were dirty and so was the cutlery and table.The food was average but overpriced for what it was. All in all disappointing visit. Whitbred should take notice of the reviews and smarten this place up. Considering it’s next to a premier inn I feel sorry for the people staying here. Dreadful place to eat.

Staying in the Premier inn opposite. Ate here tonight with a fellow colleague. The starter arrived stone cold, which I made the waitress aware of. It was taken away, microwaved and brought back 20 minutes later, steaming hot and still with the half eaten scollop I had tasted and the mash potato was dry and hard on the top. The main arrived which had been sitting under the heat lights for approximately 15 minutes, along with around 15-20 other dishes. I ordered a side of skinny fries that arrived stone cold and rubbery which I sent back, only to be told by the waiter, ‘sorry about that, I’ll get them warmed up for you’ they then arrived back 10-15 minutes later after me and my colleague had finished our mains. Listening to the chef shout and scream at the service staff and threaten to leave along side throwing kitchen utensils around and slamming doors only added to the awful atmosphere! Food was terrible, the service was terrible, the restaurant was absolutely filthy. The hotel is great, if you have the pleasure of staying here, there is a Harvester down the street along with a Mac Donald’s and a KFC. Better food, better service. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID! At all costs! I would rate zero stars if I could!!!!

A last minute meal was decided upon yesterday. As a party of 7 we arrived at 5.45pm on the Saturday afternoon / evening. We asked for a table and to be fair they found us one after a minute or two. After about 15 minutes the waitress arrived to see what we wanted to drink, but as we had been looking at menus for the last 1/4 hour we ordered food at the same time.The 3 young kids had the children's three course set meals at about £5.50 each and the adults ordered their mixed bag of food. We then waited.... after 15 / 20 minutes the drinks arrived and about another 10 minutes after that the starters arrived for the two people who had ordered them. Starters duly eaten and then we waited again firstly for them to clear the table, (my wife gave up and moved the now empty glasses and plates on to the empty table next to us) and for the main courses to arrive. In total a good 30 - 40 minutes from the finish of the starters to the arrival of the main course. That seemed to be going ok until it was realised that the kitchen had missed the meatballs from one of the kids meatballs and pasta, so the kid started her meal by eating the pasta and the meatballs turned up some 5 minutes later. The child is only 4 so she was getting confused as to where her meatballs had gone.We eat the main courses and waited again, the waitress came round with the dessert menu and we ordered a couple of desserts, plus the desserts for the kids. The now obligatory wait ensued the adults desserts arrived but the children's funny face ice cream didn't arrive until the adults had finished their desserts.We finally finished the meal almost 3 hours after arrival. The bill would have been close to £150 but for the tastecard we had which reduced it to a more reasonable £95.The meal was 3 children's meals and the included drinks, two scallops as starters, 1 rump steak, 1 chicken and ribs, 2 chicken grills. The desserts were Blackcurrant and apple crumble, Black forest sundae, Sloe gin trifle and a Chocolate fondant thing. We had between us 4 beers, and 2 bottomless soft drinks. If this is the best that they can manage I feel it is very far from acceptable service. The prices seem very high for what is essentially pub grub.

Visited yesterday evening with wife after work looking to start weekend with a nice meal.2 tonic waters, 2 lagers, veggie chilli, rump steak and garlic bread starter £45The veggie chilli was no better than a cheap microwave meal and the steak was poor, griddle forcing me to remove from mouth as it was not possible to chew. The grilled tomato was freezing.The garlic bread was soaked in garlic butter, too much. All in all it was a very poor meal.We made the lady aware who looked after us Alison and to be fair without asking they discounted £10.71 off the bill.It was not their fault and they managed it well.Unlikely to return as the standard is poor compared to for example nearby ember inn where for similar meal it would cost £20 less.The restaurant was chilly too.We used to visit here frequently however not been for a while.It’s unlikely we will return I’m afraid.It’s underwhelming is how I would describe.

Tried here as the hotel I was staying in nearby wasn’t offering a great food offering. Eaten at many beefeaters so knew what to expect. First visit the place was packed and the staff managed to squeeze me into a spare table so I rang and booked for the rest of the week although it was less busy so would advise others to book ahead. I think the premier inn guests get a voucher for something? Food was as expected and even when I customised 99% of my order, the staff dealt with it and the food was good. Don’t usually review chains as once you’ve been to one, you’ve been to them all! But I wanted to highlight the staff as being great. Friendly and chatty and bent over backwards for me. One lady, who is called Barbara according to the receipt, was particularly helpful and was an asset to the management team here.

Birthday party at 8pm. Starters arrived at 8-45. Never saw another staff member until 9-15pm when the mains arrived. Starter plates and empty drinks glasses still on the table unremoved.Really poor customer care and we had to go to ask for a round of drinks. Food was acceptable although mixed grill was over cooked. As the empty plates were being removed we were ironically asked if we "wanted more chips." We paid the £105 bill and left without a sweet or coffees. Never again if this is the poor level of client care. Mike Kelly. Birmingham B14.

No staff. Dirty toilets. Dirty seating area. Never again. No cups at breakfast, Costa coffee sachets. No hot water, no plates for toast. No staff!

The waiting on staff are great here but the kitchen and management are terrible. My steak wasn’t cooked right and the quality was terrible. They wouldn’t allow me to swap a tomato for a mushroom... I mean how stupid is that! 20 minutes to get an omelette for breakfast. I’d never come here again.

visited Thursday evening had great service and great food .The restaurant was busy and the waitress had time to deal with all our requests she was delightful her name was Debbie.We will be coming back with our family.

Went for a family meal at 6.30pm. Waitress did her best but seemed to have far too many tables to serve. Long wait between courses and took nearly two and a half hours for just a two course meal. Food was pretty uninspiring, triple cooked chips were like Iceland chunky chips and all food very basic, perhaps that’s what Beefeater is all about but for the same price or less you can get much better food in many of the local restaurants. It all looks a bit tired and dated.

Went for our wedding anniversary as we did a few years back,back then throughly enjoyed visit although my husband was unhappy with his very expensive steak that was full of fat and gristle and bleeding when was asked for cooked throughly throughout. Now this time he enjoyed his steak and it was me that had the same problem he did back then,we had to wait easy 10 mins to be seated although I booked,its just nobody came to the front desk when the restaurant wasnt even busy.i peticuly asked for no pink or blood in my steak so first cut its oozing blood and it just got worse throughout, the plate was full of water from the flat mushroom which made chips soggy and the steak only made this worse.the portions arnt good at all for the money you pay,so much so it's no joke that me and my husband went to Macdonald's over the road after leaving and it's not because we greedy eaters either. The menu seems really boring and standard to what it did the few years ago when we went. The waitress was lovely and attentive but how well done means still that raw I will never understand, It ruined it for me totally and who wants a plate of mushroom water and blood???wont ever be going again

I visited the plough today for lunch with my family. We were greeted by the warm and friendly waitress her name was Sophie. She gave us time to settle in before taking our drink and food orders. The drinks arrived shortly after our order was taken. Then our mains followed about 15 minutes after. The waitress came back to check if all was good with our food. We will be returning to The Plough again.

Great food, Great service, Great atmosphere what more could you want I would definitely recommend!!!

We had a lovely Australian waitress who was attentive and really helpful food was great and service was excellent
