The Real Ale Tavern in Wyre Forest

A fab pub with lots to offer. A must if you're in Bewdley.

Lovely comfy dog friendly pub, the beer was good too!

Great selection of beers in a freindly pub.

Known as The Rat locally we were recommended to this bar by the barman in our hotel. So glad we visited. A real find and old school in the best sense. The beers were interesting with samples freely available until we found beers to our taste. The 'owner' manager was perfect for her venue and we were lucky in that there were an eclectic group of Midlander's who added value, conversation, anecdote and beer suggestions to our visit. This is an experience to be repeated next time we're in Bewdley

Great little pub friendly staff 👍

What a lovely pub, the roof terrace is a welcome escape. Good selection of beers on handpull, another good job done by black country ales.

This is a proper pub,great staff with good product knowledge. Superb range of beers . Excellent bar food. Excellent atmosphere very welcoming. Great value.

First time here. Fantastic free spread of cheese and biscuits plus grapes and chutney etc.

Great ale and a rooftop terrace

Cracking real ale boozer. Friendly and helpful staff. A "must visit" if travelling to Bewdley.

Excellent ales and a warm welcome

Another classic Black country ales boozer.

A really friendly traditional pub.

Great pub with a good selection of real ales .

Another very good BCA pub with a great choice of independent ales

What a fantastic day out and visited one of the best pubs near the river at Bewdley. Staff are exactly Beer without question first class

Enjoyed cheese & onion cob and Guinness n black 🍻😀

Great selection of ales. Nice cobs and pork pies.

A lovely quaint pub, friendly staff and dog friendly.

Everything you'd want from a good ol English boozer

Great pub and atmosphere also dog friendly

Good place to drink nice atmosphere n good choice of ales 🍺 n nice staff 👌

Good selection of ales, friendly bar staff and good busy atmosphere

Amazing ales as usual... This place is the best if you love your hand pulled beers

Awesome pub, ten real ales, fantastic staff and friendly punters

Great range of real ales and the cobs sell out fast they are that good.

Fantastic real ales. Nice ambience friendly staff nice cheese n onion cob

Much better with the new landlord as you actually see him behind the bar. It feels more homely. Loving cheese night on a Wednesday!

Splendid range of ales, curiously narrow but deep building, well worth a visit.

Under new management and what a turnaround. Really enjoyed my night. I would recommend highly 👌

Good choice of beers and still cider on tap

Great selection of beers and spirits, friendly atmosphere and service.

Our 5th visit to Bewdley. Last visit 2nd Sept for a week. Always call in here. Good selection of real ales and ciders, however have noticed decline in number of selection available. Has "The 100 Club" gone? Never really had "tavern" atmosphere (especially as you are haunted!), we feel, because of the decor, more like a dated sitting room! (owners...have you seen The Little Pack Horse up the road? Now that feels like a tavern). May get you more punters!

Brilliant choice of Ales. Great little pub and always on my pub crawl list during a visit to Bewdley

This is definitely one of the best Black Country Ale pubs I have been in. Staff very friendly and efficient. Great selection of real ales, ciders lagers wines and spirits to suit all requirements. Dog friendly, very unusual these days. Looking forward to a return visit very soon.

Pleasant pub with friendly staff

Lovely pub and staff roof terrace fantastic

Superb choice of well kept ales. Would definitely recommend.

What a little gem of a pub... Great ales proudly promoted on the bar, friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere.. Highly recommended 👍

Good old fashioned pub with great selection of real ales

Great pub with loads of beer selection, it looks small from the outside but it's like the tardis inside.

Nice friendly pub. Lovely atmosphere and staff

Did not eat just a drink with friends bar staff really pleasant, very good selection of ales.

Met friends in bewdley and.called here for a drink Staff friendly and good selection of drinks

Great atmosphere, great beer and attentive service what else do you need!

Dropped by for a pint and sat on the roof terrace. Very quiet tonight, but the beer was good 👍

Nice and friendly staff were great

Can't fault it bar man very helpful and a great selection

Good beer, parking can be a problem as it's a public car park, friendly, all round great pub.

Cracking Ales on pump, and the two I had were up there with the best I've tasted. Great service too

Friendly staff. Good selection of beers

Nice friendly pub with Ales pity no stout on when we visited last weekend other than that 👍 up

Cracking little pub with great ale and gin selection and a really nice roof top terrace to sit

The staff was friendly and the beer was excellent, but the reason why 3 stars is because the cheese and onion cob was very expensive at £3 25p while all the other black country pubs are £2 50p, at the Vine in Wednesfield all the cobs are £2 50p plus 3 slices of black pudding. It might be cheaper to buy food from other hospitality places around the town.

We popped in here for a couple of drinks (on a Saturday) whilst staying in Bewdley for a few days. From the outside you assume it’s going to be a very small pub, but don’t be fooled there’s plenty of room inside with a whole array of real ales and lagers available along with spirits and wines to choose from. The staff were friendly and efficient and the whole atmosphere of the pub was really welcoming. Would highly recommend the Real Ale House.

Amazing pub... loads of choice , even do taster pallets.. lovely roof terrace..

The staff are always friendly and there are usually some very interesting beer choices. I was particularly glad to see 'Brew XI' on offer. What a blast form the past. I particularly like it when there is an open fire. The coffees are good to when you dont want to drink.

Popped into Bewdley for a birthday treat as I hadn’t been for many years, saw this pub and popped in, Very warm welcome, not a real ale drinker myself more the grape than the hop, but loved to see the interesting names of the beers and Black Country favourites, Spied the pork pies and had to try, … wonderful, presented on a little wooden board with mustard or pickle, sausage rolls and cobs as well, Really lovely pub, open fire which was so cosy for a Sunday winter birthday treat, Just felt so homely as old fashioned pubs used to be, lovely xx

Visited last Thursday evening with some friends. Lovely atmosphere, fire was roaring, great selection of ales, enjoyed a cheese and onion cob, barmaid very attentive and friendly. Will definitely be back!!

A proper Black Country pub. Excellent selection of local beers with a roaring welcoming fire, what more do you need after a stroll about the town!

Great place with lots of real ale, ciders and a warm welcome Lovely log fire burning and pub bar grub too Really worth a visit and steeped in history. How pubs should be!

Visit this pub very regularly. Staff are brilliant. The cobs and snack are amazing and such good prices too! Very dog friendly. Always sparkling clean. Would highly recommended to anyone visiting Bewdley

My husband and I travelled to this pub to see a clairvoyant night, yesterday, and being from sutton coldfield, it was our first time visiting this pub, and safe to say , we didnt like it.The clairvoyant was very good, which we highly enjoyed, and i will definitely have a reading off him sometime, however the pub was too narrow so the poor clairvoyant had to walk to each table. The staff were rude to me when i tried to order a drink before the show, gave me dirty looks etc. When were about to leave the pub however, we found the owner outside arguing with the clairvoyant, which i thought was very unprofessional. I coundn't wait to leave. Will not be returning as there are way better pubs in Bewdley.

Although I work in Bewdley I rarely go out in Bewdley. I met some work friends for a pub quiz. It was a great night, brilliant atmosphere. The pub is absolutely immaculate. Beautifully kept bar, so clean and wonderful friendly staff. The toilets are very clean. I will recommend to everyone. A real asset to Bewdley.

We were a party of seven friends meeting up for a curry weekend. If you like a pub with a good selection of quality real ales then this is your ideal pub.

No where on there Google overview does it mention that children are not allowed 🚫 no where on the door...? So obviously when we entered desperately in need of shelter from the cold & rain we wanted to have a nice drink and feed my daughter both kids were in a double buggy and no trouble at all. But unfortunately we were told immediately we wasn't welcome no help in saying where is family friendly. The pub allows dogs but not children there should be information on these policies before entering what a shame.

Stumbled across this place yesterday and what a treat it was! Fantastic welcome from the staff as soon as I approached the bar. I’m not a huge ale drinker so they were able to talk me through which beers might suit what I like. Had a couple of tasters which were lovely and my pint was spot on. Got a bit peckish so also had a ham cob - really really good! Nice proper butcher ham and a fresh cob. Amazed at the new roof terrace, what a nice spot! Looking forward to returning in the summer. They have a no children policy so it was very refreshing to be able to relax without children running around or making noise. Will definitely return, can’t recommend enough!

No cobs at 1.00 o clock. Music loud.music funky. Horse racing on loud. Lads playing darts noisy. What happened yo a quiet pint and a bite to eat. Needs looking at ied say

For me this pub ticks all the boxes, a proper wet pub with no kids allowed, a lovely choice of beer, pork pies, cobs ect and the big plus this pub is very tidy and clean.

We reside in Bridgnorth but had friends visiting from Liverpool so headed off to Bewdley for a day out. Fancied a quick pint and a snack and so we headed in. First thing you notice is the place is spotless ultra clean. An impressive 15...

Love this place. Over 10 real ales to choose at very good prices plus a crusty cob or sausage roll to soak it up with Guy behind the bar was really nice to the extent he looked after my dog when I needed a comfort...

10 handpumps in a long bar with plenty of seating. The beers were described on the in house display TVs along with their prices. Dog friendly but not welcome on the seats. A fine establishment for beer aficionados

A proper pub in the middle of town. Lots of ales for everyone to enjoy also cider & plenty of guns to choose from. Loved the cheese & onion cobs other flavours available also sausage rolls. We will definitely visit again.

Very wide selection of real ales and ciders on offer, all at a reasonable price, friendly staff, very good cobs available.

We always visit The Real Ale Tavern when we're in Bewdley and it never fails to disappoint! Popped in early afternoon today for a pint of BFG and a cheese & onion cob. Really impressed with the variety of gin, rum and whiskey now available...

Needed a cup of tea on a very wet walk around the town on route home and this was the only cafe/pub that would let the dog in. We only had a cup of tea and it was fine. More of a locals up really

We have been twice this month and enjoyed each time. The tier 2 rules require you to eat with your drinks and the food arrangements are good. We had cobs, crisps and salad. It was all fine. The beer was good as usual and the...

My brother visited us recently and popped into the Real Ale Tavern to meet an old friend for a drink. I get that in these times we all have to be careful and wear masks etc but there is no excuse for downright rudeness. My...

Full all day, yet squeezed myself+dog in. As an "occasional regular" I just cannot fault this place: lovely efficient friendly welcome, CV guidelines followed to the hilt, well kept ale, nice chilled atmosphere (and in summer there's aircon when it's needed!). Scotch eggs, cobs and...

Lovely place, the staff are friendly and good Covid awareness. We'll done. Very cosy comfortable place,

Great little place with a wonderful selection of beers and the 3 1/3 taster tray is an excellent option with the choice available.

We go regularly to this pub. We love trying the different beers - there is always something new to try as the beer menu is regularly changed. The staff are very friendly too. The distancing arrangements work well.

Such a shame, i really looked forward to a nice quiet pint in here after work whilst working in bewdley from the outside it looks a real nice cosy place to go and chill for an hour so had to give it a go, unfortunately...

New landlords a few months back.. Still the same fabulous range of real ales on the "pulls " . !! Try before you buy . Our "local" in town . Parking available at the back ( Meter) or on the road in front for free...

Absolute heaven for ale drinkers,10 Ales all on in perfect condition,i found the Black country ales amazing at good prices,cheers we will see you soon.

With 10 pumps dispensing real ales, a warm welcome and lovely chatty locals this place is well worth finding. Lots of places to eat near by, just the ticket for anyone who enjoys real ale

Nice old fashioned Black Country brewery owned pub with 10 real ales (including 3 of their own) available all the time. Well kept and very reasonably priced

excellent choice of ales and ciders with attentive staff and reasonable prices. goes for the olde worlde charm which can feel a bit dark inside but very busy so people seem to like it

How I love it when there is so much choice I just don't know what to try. This place presented me with that "problem" but I still managed to cope. It was quiet when I was there and was a comfortable relaxed environment and something I appreciated was being asked what I though of my choices of beer, it just showed really good attention to service. The fact that it is a pub with an adult only clientele was a real plus point for me.

Jerome is a most hospitable host. Service top class and staff very friendly, beer and ale great and cobs fresh and delicious!

What a lovely find for a real ale drinker, 12 hand pumps 10 with real ale and 2 with cider! Other drinks als available! Great atmosphere and the landlady and her husband were very entertaining.

A nice friendly atmosphere, plenty of real ale on display, have been to this pub several times now, and have not been disappointed, this time I took 2 pints of Fireside home with me in a carton, needs drinking the same evening. The staff were excellent, and the regulars are there with their dogs, they were no issue as the food is only Cobs, Ham or Cheese but fresh and very Tasty. Will be there again this weekend.

Comfortable and welcoming, with a dozen real ales to try....we would have visited more often if staying longer!

10 real ales & 2 ciders, the ones I had were nice !

Last Sunday we walked along the river as a family with the dog from Stourport to Bewdley. We’ve used this pub a few times as a couple but on this occasion we had our son who is almost 19 and daughter nearly 16 with us. We walked in the only table free was right at the back of the pub which was fine. Took our coats off and asked the kids what they wanted to drink and went towards the bar. We were met by the landlord who politely asked us to leave saying no children are allowed. We have been to many pubs and our very quiet daughter is almost 16 so although we hadn’t seen the notice we don’t really think of her as being a child she’d have sat quietly in the corner with a glass of Diet Coke. I’ve since been told it’s no children under 14 I’m not sure if that is correct or not. We went round the corner to The Mug House and we were welcome there.

The pub reminded me of the Wellington in Birmingham. The manager told me that the pub shared the same brewery? There's around 10 ales to choose from with a great selection of lights to dark. I tried an American Pale ale (very good) and a chestnut one (Pig on the Wall) again very tasty.

We visited the Real Ale Tavern entirely based on the name and technically I cannot fault them for that.

We parked our car and walking past what used to be Barclays bank were amazed to see another pub! Looked through the window to see armchairs and a roaring open fire, we were hooked.

Very impressed, when we walked in, with the number of Real Ales available plus couple Ciders.

Dropped in for a couple of drinks, lovely bar staff, friendly clientele, great beers at sensible prices, what's not to like!
