First visit and was really impressed. Good choice of beers and the food was really first rate. I had salmon with new potatoes, and everything on the menu sounded good. My partner had the fish and chips, and the portion was very generous! It was busy so the atmosphere was good and the staff were efficient and helpful. Will be going back.

Cosy country pub, easy to get to just off the A38 near Lichfield. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff and a good level of service. Plenty of availability for a Monday evening. Plenty of food options with a Pizza menu and pub classics. Fish and chips was a very good size portion and tasted great. Would recommend

Had an excellent meal on Sunday chosing Turkey and my partner Fish. The restaurant was exceptionally busy but didn't have to wait long for our meals. They came with plenty of vegetables. More than enough to eat. The desert was divine. Sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. All reasonably priced. Must go again.

We stopped off for lunch at this pub on our way back from Derbyshire to Sussex on Saturday. We had first tried the Dog Inn at Whittington (smelt strongly of chemicals and had big screens on for the football) and the Bell in the same village (basic menu), so it was a relief to find The Plough in a beautiful location with tables by the canal plus an extensive menu. For the 3 of us we ordered 2 x meat lasagne with garlic bread and a ploughman's. Impressed with both dishes. Very tasty piping hot lasagne in its own dish with big slices of garlic bread and a side salad f rocket. My husband raved about his ploughman's which included a bit of everything that you might wish for and in volume too - we ended up taking a doggy bag home! Thank you to The Plough for saving the day when we were getting very hungry and frustrated!

Been here a couple of times and this time, we had a pizza and chips. The pizza's are big enough for two people so no need to buy one each. The front of the pub gets very very busy but there's plenty of seating in the restaurant area. Probably wise to pre-book though.

Portions are big but reasonably priced. Service was fantastic, very attentive and all the food turned up together. From being received and to paying the bill nothing was at fault. It’s my first time back for around 10 years and the food and service was as good as it was back then.

The Sunday dinner used to be one of the best around the Lichfield area. Now the parsnips are frozen. I couldn't eat the potatoes. The veg was average at best the beef wasn't the best. They also put it in a pool of gravy. It's a great pub but the food has gone from a 9/10 to a 3/10 in a few years

My friends and I stopped off here on the way to a concert in Birmingham. Not too far off the A38, it's a lovely place, eight next to the river. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, one of our party was coeliac and they couldn't do enough to help. Given that it was a nice hot day, we all had salads (Stilton, pear and walnut, cajun salmon and chicken and bacon). The portions were generous, and the meal was delicious. I also had the white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake, which was amazing - all homemade and again generous in size. Would absolutely love to visit this place again to try more of their menu. Would definitely recommend.

We walked here along the (very) muddy tow path from the nearby marina where we were staying. It was a lovely walk and when were arrived, we were hopefully for a table as we hadn't booked. We were lucky and were offered a table about 90 minutes from them. After a couple of drinks, one in the beer garden, and then one inside, our table opened up about 30 minutes earlier than expected. After checking the menu to make sure we ordered what we really fancied, we sat back and enjoy catching up with each other over a bottle of wine. The food was excellent and well worth the walk! The staff we friendly and helpful, and with food this good, we understood why every table was full!
