Got a takeout, first time I’ve tried Birchwood Spice. Food is as good as anywhere else I’ve been, but the price makes it outstandingly good value for money👍🏾and will be my new eat in or takeout spot from now on 👌🏾. Was very impressed guys thanks. Lee.

there is a new Indian restaurant using part of the Poacher pub, the food and service is excellent it is called ( Birchwood Spice Pub) there is a varied menu and the price is really good, also the quality of a pint is spot on. the staff in the restaurant bring your drinks to your table as order them. considering your bill is comprised of meal and bar bill, this is an extra service.

Went to watch the last day of the football season. Bought two pints. A random toddler spills entire pint all over my jeans. Family in question offer some baby wipes, but no apology. Stating “the table Is wonky “. Bar girl offers fresh pint and baby wipes. Manager cancels this as it would drain his beer stocks. Does diddly squat rudely and smugly , offers me nothing in my soaking wet Levi’s and walks off. Been a customer here for 30 years. Will never enter again. Crucifixion is too good for you.

Ignorant bar staff that completely ignore you when you’re stood at the bar to serve locals first even though they have been waiting longer.

I called in late afternoon, so it was quite empty, as you would expect at that time of day. I can't comment on the food , because I didn't eat. The manager was very welcoming, and they had a great selection of beer and lagers at the pumps.
