The Six Ashes in South Staffordshire

Ate here recently for the second time in 4 weeks. Really enjoyed both times. Food nicely cooked and plentiful. will return.

Had Sunday lunch here today and was very dissatisfied, the parsnips weren’t prepared properly as they were very woody they should have removed the centre part of it, the potatoes were under cooked as they were hard to cut and the gravy was gloopy so all in all won’t be returning…

We stopped off on the way home from Shrewsbury. Had a lovely Sunday lunch, great friendly barman and good home cooked food.

Such a lovely evening with a fantastic land lady, our friends were staying in their lovely holiday cottage. Gorgeous old historic inn, in a lovely picturesque village. Thank you for a lovely Saturday night!

Amy the landlady is the most personable warm landlady I have ever met. We were staying in the cottage attached to the pub but tonight was the first night I went to the pub. Wish I’d come here earlier in the week. If you go to Bridgnorth and DONT have something here, you’ve truly missed out. If you have FOMO, get yourself down here. Sam from Hastings

Had Sunday lunch here today. It was fantastic one of the best roast dinners we have had out in a long time, proper home cooked food with great fresh ingredients, lovely choice of food plus snacks and a main menu on a Sunday. A lovely lemon cheesecake aswell Highly recommend will be returning again

Loved it. Sensational weekend of new year. Particularly love the quirky teapot in the flat. Really brings the room together. Class. Highly recommended.

We were out for the day on Saturday so on the way home we were looking for a nice place to eat lunch. The Six ashes is an olde English country pub very picturesque. Loads of free parking and a nice patio front beer garden. The bar is quite nice a little tired staff was polite and attentive, the beer we ordered was very good however toward the end of the drink I became aware that the glass was a little unclean! We ordered another that was equally as nice along with some bar food. Fish and chips for me and Cajun chicken burger and chips for my partner. When the food came we were a bit underwhelmed my fish was an Iceland basic cod in some kind of batter the chips were excellent though the fish was not what I would expect from a pub restaurant. The burger was inedible, plane white dry bun and a piece of dry chicken placed inside with some kind of dressing on, the base of the bun was wet! I wouldn’t give it to my dog to be honest, the chips were as good as mine but the salad looked old. To say we were dissatisfied would under state it, a member of the kitchen staff came out to ask what was wrong I said look at that !! She said well it was fresh today! We paid left the food and made our way out . We would go there for a beer but NOT to eat!!!

I drive past the Six Ashes everyday on my commute from Bridgnorth to Birmingham for the past 7 yearsand I have often wondered what it was like. Today we finally decided to go and it definitely did not disappoint.We ordered the vegetarian Sunday Dinners and a jacket potato. The Potato was huge with a great salad, the vegetarian mains were fantastic, a Mediterranean vegetable Wellington with vegetables and roast potatoes. Very well priced too, we will definitely be returning, I would've taken a picture of my dinner but by the time I thought about it, it was gone 😁

Absolutely wonderful stay in this beautiful part of the world. The pub and the accommodation was faultless despite the current restrictions. All the staff were fantastic. Many thanks from Somerset.

What a great country pub this is. A warm welcome was given to us by Amy and all the locals, although, our dog (who’s not small.!) was more interesting to everyone and allowed to join us for drinks, he loved the attention. Great chat and a roaring fire - what more could one ask for. We stayed in No2 Ash Cottage behind the pub - very clean and really well appointed, every amenity you could want for is supplied. Lots of dog walks out of the door and then a quick beer in the pub early evening - it could have become a regular diary entry, sad to leave. Thanks for everything Amy

We arrived, lovely colley dog to greet us at the gate, We didn’t know what to expect as we always arrive early, We were very happy, open fire in a cold winter December Sunday, Lovely staff , I think it may have been the owner that cooked our dinner everything was fresh and hot, and just a lovely winters Sunday December dinner. Best food we have had in a good while home cooked fresh food . Not generic modern fast paced stored frozen crap . We really felt it was lovely homely. On leaving the hen roaming the grounds said goodbye on the way out. Lovely would definitely recommend , old fashioned pub with great pub . Very good food . Would definitely go again . Helen

Out for a drive to find somewhere to eat and came across this lovely looking pub with lots of signs outside claiming good food etc. Pulled in and parked up. Only to be told when inside that we don’t do food on a Monday in a tone that suggested that I should have known! The place looked great but don’t stop here on a Monday. Just a thought, maybe move your signs or put one up that informs your potential customers of when you do actually serve food.

Popped in to meet a friend on good Friday afternoon, was pleased to see dogs were welcome as I had my lab pup with me. Only had a couple of swift pints but both were spot on and refreshing on a warm day. Great lady behind the bar, only thing that was a slight let down was the group of ‘boy racers’ on the car park who sat there for over an hour revving engines. And could easily be intimidating to other customers. Other than that great boozer

Poor Sunday carvery how can anyone get it so wrong and take so long serving it .waited over an hour in between courses . Food very poor ☹️

We visited The Six Ashes after travelling back from a weekend away. What a delightful experience it was! The food was divine, it took pub grub to a whole new level and the staff went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. Not only were the staff extremely friendly and full of menu knowledge, the pub dog was also a sweetheart. What more could you ask for: great food, great hostess, great atmosphere and the added bonus of a pooch!

Having visited this pub a few years ago and had a great meal there thought it would be good to revisit, when we arrived found out it had been taken over by new owners, after ordering out meal,found the starter to be over cooked and hard it not great, I ordered a traditional pub fish and chips,which was supposed to be 12oz it probably was whith the 7oz if hard batter attrached,when I complained about the fish was told the starter would be taken off the bill, that was not the point, the chef who I presume was the owner never came over to see us but was too busy on her phone at the bar, the warning signs should have been ringing with how empty the car park was, definitely will not be back, in this day and age of so many pubs closing I’d expect a little better service, some owners were not meant to be landlords it seems .

Went for a bike ride to the Six Ashes Pub for lunch. Unable to eat food as I was greated by an angry dog on opening the gate. Tried again only to get the same response from the dog. Not sure how many other customers have been discouraged by a similar experience but surely a friendly face would be better 5han and angry dog!

I know this pub from days of old, and its a well known landmark for this area. I remember it from a lad with the fiberglass boot in the garden which formed part of the play area. It used to be absolutely buzzing. So with this in mind I am slightly biast towards the establishment. That said its quite a bit off the mark of what it used to be, easily rectified mind. We found the place generally tired, dirty walls and glasses which put us off from the get go. It is nice to have dog friendly areas in a country pub but not particularly great when you're eating. I'm nit really going to say much more as I really want this place to do well, but I think some more effort is required in areas concerning quality for this to happen.

Small pub, nicely maintained with a beer garden, lunchtime food time extends until 5pm on Sundays. This is good as another nearby pub, in Enville, stops serving in the daytime soon after 2 pm. Plenty of character inside, in good weather it’s a very pleasant setting to eat out, just remember that there is a dog and chickens which roam, so shut the gate and watch where you are walking ‘just in case’. Food menu is very acceptable with snacks or more substantial meals and we have tried both in past visits. Salad accompanies baguettes and is always freshly made and crispy. Some of the chairs outside were stained with bird droppings, and there was ‘old’ dog mess on the grass area, not a lot but it is a bit off putting if you wish to sit there and we would have expected it to be cleared. Despite this we would recommend The Six Ashes Inn based on half a dozen visits in the past twelve months.

We were looking for a dog friendly pub where mine and my brother's family could eat out and take our dogs. Telephoned in advance and they were really friendly on the phone.Went to the pub and although it was obviously more of a locals pub it didn't have that uncomfortable feeling you sometimes get when strangers walk in. Ordered food, they even bought drinks to the table, great service. The food was good too, but for the decor, location, and type of pub I thought that the food was overpriced. Don't get me wrong though, I thoroughly enjoyed the mixed grill (my dog did too.) No complaints on the food whatsoever, just the price.

The Owain Glyndwr Society used the pub as a base for the unveiling of a new noticeboard - which is next to the pub's beer garden. It was a wet weather day and so everyone was happy that the speeches were given inside next to the log fire. A large number of those attending had enjoyable meals and the unveiling of the noticeboard was toasted with a range of beverages. The pub lies on the border between Staffordshire and Shropshire - but is also on an ancient border between England and Wales which has links to the stories of Merlin and Owain Glyndwr.

Visited, for the first time, Friday 16th March - rather busy, beautiful and warm and very homely - great atmosphere. We were a party of four who all ordered different meals - all of us were extremely impressed with the quality of our home made food. All served piping hot, beautifully presented and very generous portions. The service was second to none. All the staff were very helpful, courteous and friendly. Good pricing, lovely and clean and we will definitely be going again very soon.

Popped in for lunch on a wednesday. One of only two tables with people seated. Food was absolutely delicious. Home made and piping hot. Had the lasagne and the fish and chips, then the stick toffee pudding and cheesecake of the day. Great big portions. Wine and ale to drink. Ale seemed well cared for. Very reasonably priced. Lovely staff. Bit chilly but still warmer than outside.

Visited as a party of 6 for Sunday Lunch on Sun 25th Feb at 2pm. It has been at least 20 years since I have been here and I drive past twice a day to and from work so decided a visit was long overdue. I love Brock the Collie Dog, it just makes it a more homely atmosphere with a dog there bringing u his toy and having some fuss.

This was a flying visit and yes, we only had coffee so no food review today.

This place had mostly good reviews for food, so we visited for a late lunch. Once we had managed to get in the door, past the dog that comes running and barking at the door every time someone comes in (avoid if you are scared of dogs), we were given different information. It was Sunday, but we didn’t want a traditional Sunday lunch. The info on internet says they do normal menu on a Sunday. The lady on the bar said normal menu applied. So we studied the menu and chose what we wanted. Then the lady on the bar told us “oh, you can now only have Sunday lunch menu”. Consequently we left and had an amazing meal elsewhere. Won’t be back.

Went for a lunchtime meal. It was superb. I had the lasagne and hubby had the belly pork. Both came out steaming and freshly cooked. Tasted great. Very filling. And the chips I ordered were proper chips not frozen. Staff were lovely. Helpful . Setting was lovely. Open fire. Lovely views.

Stopped in for a quick bite with my husband and Mum and Dad. We received a warm welcome from the lovely barmaid and Brock the friendly collie. Then stuffed our faces with hearty home cooked food by a blazing fire. We’ll be coming back!

Went for quite evening meal with Mrs What a great little place salmon was excellent and my mix grill was by far the best in the surrounding area Great real ales a bonus Miss this place at your peril

Firstly let me start by saying how wonderful the atmosphere was within the pub. Greeted and treated great from start to finish. Myself, my husband and our son were accommodated for no problem. We had the beef Sunday dinner and we were not disappointed. Pub was clean, well stocked and had a great selection of meals. Will be returning again for sure.

After reading the excellent reviews decided to drive out from Wolverhampton for lunch. Even though the sign said 12-00 at 12-15 there was no sign of life. A workman on the adjacent site banged on the door to no avail, Another car arrived and they tried the door and quickly drove away. Business must be good if at least 6 potential customers can be ignored.

Nice setting, lovely country pub atmosphere, friendly helpful staff who seem to care about making your experience a good one. Beer was nice, food was very tasty. We were looking for somewhere near to the winery and Halfpenny Green Airport where we could grab some lunch and also take our dog. This fit the bill perfectly, it added to what was a very pleasant day out.

15 miembros de mi familia tenía el almuerzo de hoy para celebrar mi cumpleaños. El servicio fue excelente, todo el mundo disfrutó de la comida que estaba bien preparado y abundante. Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos y no estamos presionados cuando habíamos terminado de comer. El personal era muy amable, la mayoría complaciente llevan bebidas a la mesa y presta gran atención al detalle. Nada era demasiado problema y la tarta de cumpleaños hecha por mi hija en ley fue presentada como una agradable sorpresa al final de la comida.

Hemos comido aquí varias veces. De hecho, en alrededor de 30 minutos para ir a este encantador pub! La comida siempre es increíble y el personal amable.

Visitamos el 6 de cenizas en mayo, junio y ahora de nuevo de nuevo en julio. Está a sólo unos kilómetros de nosotros, pero de nuestros propietarios tenemos shyed lejos. Volvimos como un intento de última hora para conseguir algo de comida en algún sitio y boy estamos contentos de haberlo hecho. Nos recibió una señora encantadora joven detrás de la barra y un perro incluso simpático llamado brock! (El lugar es perros. Extra! ) nos dijeron que tome asiento y dieron un menú. Buscando fue una revelación para mí, así que había mucha variedad y a un precio tan bajo. Nos instalamos en el pescado y patatas fritas y pastel de carne con cerveza. Nos tomamos unas copas y de un bar bien abastecido, bien presentado. Mucha variedad. Estaba limpio y ordenado. Aseos incluidos. Leer en un comentario aquí desde el año pasado sobre pintura desconchada. Sin duda no es. nada de eso ahora me parece todo el lugar ha tenido un nuevo arrendamiento de vida. La señora tierra y el personal es encantador y hacía todo lo posible para hacernos sentir como en casa. Cuando las comidas llegamos nos quedamos impactados por el tamaño de ellos y estar muy hambriento significaba realmente disfrutar de cada chip cortadas a mano. Pedimos ver un menú desierto pero decidimos no hacerlo porque estábamos demasiado lleno en este punto. Aunque dejaremos algunas habitaciones la próxima vez. Algunos de los habitantes y estamos muy hablador y amable con nosotros. Todo en nuestra visita fue maravilloso y ahora podemos decir que hemos encontrado un sitio que satisface las exigentes.

Reservamos en el último minuto para un miércoles por la noche un cumpleaños familiar. Había 24 de nosotros con dos niños nos recibió un amable, señora bar feliz por el nombre de Rach que estaba dispuesto a ayudarnos con todo. Y la maravillosa brock el perro super amable y amorosa. Nos tomamos unas copas antes de sentarse a comer. Todo aspecto de la comida desde el principio hasta el final fue de pura perfección no podría clasificar a este lugar. Una joya escondida. Toda la comida estaba cocinada a cómo nos había pedido con patatas fritas caseras y pudines. Es limpio y ordenado. Cálido fuego tanto en el bar como en el restaurante había sido iluminado. Fantástico precios de cerveza y vino. Gracias por hacer de mi cumpleaños socios tan especial!

We thought we would ind this place again having been here years ago, very empty when we first got there at lunchtime but it filled up quite quickly. We ordered from the main menu and the portions were huge. Puds were amazing all home made and tasty.Reasonably priced - good choices of main menu or light lunches. Nice wines. Good size car park and they welcome dogs. Give it a try its a nice place.

Having prebooked days before we assumed our party of 12 would be catered for.we weren't. One person on duty front of house one person cooking in the kitchen. There were also other diners being catered for. We arrived at 12.30 left at 3.30 after only 2 course which we thought would never arrive. Masses of food on the plates but almost inedible. .how disappointing,never again.depite there being two log fires the pub was cold and cheerless and the toilet dark and cold. No hot water it was felt that the owners were trying very hard to cut corners to save going broke. Awful place save your money.

Fed up with the Sunday carvery madness, banging elbows with the people on the next table!? Try here, never had a bad meal, lovely roaring fire in the winter, a proper country pub. Great if you like dogs too. Would recommend anyone to try it.

Visited Jan 2017 after a very cold walk around the nearby Highgate common. Lovely open fire was very warming and helped with rustic charm.Ordered baguette with chips and friend bad fish finger sandwich with onion rings. We were the only ones there so food took a little longer as invisibly first meal of the day cooked. But when it arrived was very fresh and filing and plates were hot. Would definitely recommend as a midway stop.

Charming country pub situated on the main road to Bridgnorth. Today was the first time I'd been to the Six Ashes in over two decades,on this particular occasion for a lunchtime bite to eat. The pub has loads of hygge, completed by a lovely roaring fire and a good service. The food was OK but nothing that special. Most of our ensemble went for the steak and onion baguette avec chips. Maybe not the best dish to choose if you're looking to be gastro - perfection. Would recommend a visit even if just for a pint.

Two recent meals in the company of friends. A wide menu choice, friendly staff (and dog!) the helpings are quite large.

Each time we have passed this pub we were always saying we must try it for a meal. We had noticed that Friday night was two for £20 so off we went. Lovely country pub with good choice of ale and wine of course! The steak was delicious and so was everything accompanying it.

Went there last night to celebrate my wife's birthday. Had been there previously and was quite pleased.When we arrived the bar was full and noisy (with what looked like a shooting party) and we were shown to a table at the back of the bar which turned out to be right next to the toilets with the attendant traffic. On our previous visits we had eaten in the restaurant and expected the same as we had booked. We we overdressed for a bar meal.The food was OK but presentation was poor even by bar meal standards more like what could be expected at "Sid's Cafe". Not what we expected and very dissapointed.

Went as a group of 5 adults. The bar was busy and whilst ordering some drinks we noticed the size of the food portions. They were very generous and looked well presented.On friday it is 2 grills for £20 or if you want the mixed grill it is an extra £1:50 each.The mixed grill was superb. Steak, gammon, chicken and 2 sausages plus chips. All were well cooked. The chicken dish was also a good size. The fish and chips were very good. The size of the fish was huge.The staff were very friendly and attentive. We will go back soon.It is also dog friendly.

This was just a spur of the moment decision we were going away the next day so our son and family came over to see us and we popped in to the six ashes they were very welcoming ,food was plenty and very tasty,also catering for children . Very pleasant night.

We had a lovely meal at the Six Ashes in the garden with our three Highland Terriers, this is a pet friendly pub in the heart of the Shropshire countryside, great food and service a great afternoon.

Lovely pub but not sure about foodPrices for the specials were little expensive considering they are usually cheaperI had jacket spud with cheese and ham but couldn't find it because of lettuce leaves my partner had beef baguette couldn't cut beef to hard real shame because could make a lovely place to eat and drink

Booked this for Sunday lunch for my sons birthday, what a huge disappointment. On arrival the pub was empty, which should have set alarm bells ringing, at 2.30 on a Sunday it should have been bustling. No smell of Sunday roast to welcome you, very tired and dated with paint peeling off the walls, the land ladies washing on an airer on the patio out to the garden is not a good selling point. We should of turned around and found another place to eat, but we didn't and that was a really big mistake. When our roasts arrived the plate was swimming in gravy and some indescribable white sauce and what looked like a pancake and four large roast potatoes that were neither crisp or brown. I had requested mint sauce for my lamb roast and this arrived in a small kilner jar with the rubber seal hanging off and the metal fastening rusty. Another plate of veg arrived but as there was no room on the plate to put anything else it was hardly touched. No taste to any of the good can't believe we have just paid nearly £45 for such dire food. Would not recommend this pub to anyone and will definitely never go back

Good points - Polite Staff, Nice Gravy, Great VegDisappointed in :- * Meat - Roast Beef tasted like been in microwave and not like proper meat, or brought in ready cooked joint maybe, really rubbery and hard to chew - rubbish.* Debris outside bathrooms, reel of wire, heater or something waiting to be put on wall, health & safety risk to children around and elderly customers* Dog mess all over lawn which was desperate to be mowed* One of Benches with (wheel back feature) is about to break, son lent back on it and it almost broke* No instructions of how to order, just left waiting ages menus on table so assumed waiter service - wrong have to order at bar* Limited real ales unlike description on Website, Garden looks lovely on Website. Best part of hundred pound an came home hungry

Stopped here with friends for a quick lunch before school run and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food off the £5 lunch menu. We didnt expect a lot but the meal was huge & the quality good we would certainly go back again. Although there wasnt too much choice the food we had was great.

I have used the six ashes loads of times. The food is amazing, and the beer and cider is kept very well. The prices are more than fair for the quality of food and service. Dont just drive past this great pub.

Poped in here for the 2 for 1 on a Monday and food was very good. Huge portions home cooked chips. Comfy welcoming pub. Great value for money on the 2 for 1 would happily pay full price. Will be back. This place should be packed. Especially on the 2 for 1 Monday nights. Best value around

passing by went in as it looked a nice country pub not disappointed the food was very nice will call in again if in that area

Very friendly service! Lovely country pub ! Fish and chips ... The fish was extremely dry and overcooked at the tail end and what tasted like a cheep quality burger just left with a greasy taste in my mouth. Very reasonably priced £26 for 2 meals and a wine each. Hopefully this was a one off, will give it another try !

Came here on spec for dinner with the family. Good choice, tasty food and plenty of it. The staff are also friendly as is the resident Collie dog and there is a selection of beer on tap.

Called in by chance after hearing the pub had changed handsWe received a friendly welcome & took a table in the bar area. My burger was excellent & my wife's steak pie also got the thumbs up. Both were good sized portions. Beer was good too!However....... some locals came in for a drink & started swearing profusely. I realise that the locals beer sales are important to the pub - but I wished we had taken a table in the dining areaWe will return though!!

Just wanted to let you all know about this great little pub. Sunday lunch be it Beef Lamb, Pork, Chicken or Turkey, you won't go far wrong in taking a run out too the Six Ashes pub. Our Sunday lunch was superb meats and vegetables all cooked to perfection, and all served piping hot. Staff very friendly and polite. Real ales on tap is a bonus. So go on check this place out.

Called in for lunch on Sunday 3rd April. Lovely warm pub with a very welcoming atmosphere. Girl behind the bar was nice and friendly and served us our drinks, opened a tab for us and directed us to the dining room.My wife had the lamb dinner and I had the pork belly draft, both of which were cooked to perfection and complemented with a generous selection of vegetables. Our meals were so filling but we piggishly ordered a chocolate and raspberry tart to share, which was absolutely amazing and it definitely lived up to the chocolate promise. All this was washed down with a couple of glasses of Holden's Golden Glow and a glass of Merlot for SWMBO for around £30. Perfect. Oh, and the young lady that took care of our table was a gem too. Would definitely call again.

We visited the pub restaurant early on a Sunday afternoon, and just wanted a bar snack.The menu was varied and interesting, and we chose a jacket potato with tuna mayo, and a Baguette with prawns and Mary Rose sauce. They were both good value and tasty. There was a welcoming fire at one end of the pub, and plenty of seating areas, with a separate restaurant . The atmosphere was welcoming, and it proved to be very popular. If visiting on a summers day there are plenty of outdoor tables and seating if required. The garden area is enclosed, so it is safe for children and dogs. The house dog Brock , is popular, and will retrieve anything thrown for him! , so definitely a dog friendly pub.We will definitely visit again, and sample the main menu.It was well worth a visit, especially as we came across it by chance. It's on the main Stourbridge road, in Six Ashes Road at a junction, opposite an Italian restaurant.

Stopped here today after a trip into Bridgnorth. What a lovely welcome and the dog is so friendly our little boy loved him. Me and the Husband had beef Sunday lunch and it was beautiful like to have the veg separate so you can choose as much as you want. My 6yr old had a burger from the kids menu it was really lovely chunky burger with homemade chips so tasty. Special touch is that they offered smaller Cutlery for our son which I think is so good Food was all home cooked and great would highly recommend a visit

We had a friendly welcome from the owner and Brock the dog! Cosy low beamed ceiling, open fire (cold evening), cold Stella, hot sautéed Normandy chicken and perfectly steamed rice with. Lovely garden for Summertime.

Stopped here for lunch on the way back from Birmingham. Lovely quaint pub with large open fire, pub dog and chickens. Menu was quite good value: with lunch deals for £5 and under or something little bit more extravagant for a a couple pounds more. Surprisingly, we were the only ones there on a Thursday, so please stop by and give it a try - you won't be disappointed!

On our way back from Bewdley and decided to stop off for late lunch.. had a drink in the bar before but never esten there.We chose the lamb and belly pork both where equally as nice..food was hot and the side vegetabkes where lovely freshly cooked ....pleasant younger waitress. I would defiantly go again.

Stopped here at lunchtime today with a friend, for the first time in a little while. Very, very good value menu: I had a decent size baguette with proper slices of beef (i.e. not packet stuff) and my friend the lasagne - both dishes came with a good sized portion of crispy salad, not just the odd leaf like one gets in some places. Everything is phenomenally well-priced, even the drinks. Factor in nice, country pub decor and a friendly, well-behaved pub dog and it's a winner. 2 ciders (my tipple of choice) and a range of beers and lagers and you won't be left wanting for much. Sadly, we were the only people in...so, don't pass The Six Ashes by, you'll be missing out! We will definitely be back.

Dropped in on a whim after a visit to Ironbridge. We were pleasantly surprised at the welcome we received and the quality of the home cooked meal we had. Excellent quality with home cooked chips and freshley cooked burgers with no scrimping on the cheese and bacon and gammon and eggs with two free range eggs. We will be returning

Beautiful little country pub, lovely food, fantastic offers, very accommodating to large parties to say how small the place is, friendly staff, looking forward to going back in the summer!

Decided to go here as an alternative to run-of-the-mill 2-for-1 meal deals at chain pubs. So pleased we did. Had an excellent meal - proper pub grub and extremely tasty. Will be visiting again soon.

Great meal with friendly staff and a happy dog, we stopped by and found a well stocked bar and plenty of choice on the menu, we will be returning in the new year.

Went with a large group for a Christmas meal. We had pre-ordered our food and on arrival staff were friendly and food was served promptly. It was very nice and the portions were very generous. An enjoyable evening.

Just dropped in onspec one rainy Sunday. Excellent food and lovely fire on cold days. Have been a couple of times now and always enjoyed our visit.

Staff not very welcoming, seemed like they didn't want to be there. food ok-ish, used to be really good.

Visited with a friend for lunch, but as a coeliac tried to phone first to see if they could accommodate me with gluten free. No reply after numerous calls, so went on spec. Bar staff had no knowledge of gluten free, so he had to keep asking the chef & coming back to me. Little understanding of gluten free, as said I could have steak and chips, but had to consult the chef again when I inquired if the oil was also used to fry fish with gluten containing batter. Came back again, no I couldn't have the chips. I made a mental note that if I'd not questioned this, I'd have been ill for the next few days, due to cross contamination. Had a fiery chilli & rice to play safe. This was good, but was spoilt by the cold coffee that was served up afterwards. When I asked for hot coffee, it took another 10 minutes to arrive, but then had to ask for milk to go with it, which took another 10 minutes. May go back to see if today was just an 'off day' for the staff, but will likely try elsewhere.

I am always dubious about ordering pork belly when I am out at restaurants because you can never be sure how fatty the meat will be and how crisp the crackling. I took a chance and was delighted. The huge piece of belly pork was really lean and tender and the crackling which had been removed and cooked separately was just perfect. All the vegetables were fresh and all in all it was a lovely, tasty and filling meal. We will definitely be returning, hopefully on one of their 2 for 1 or grill nights which are also seem to be great value.

Had drinks to start then 3 of us had two courses each my wife had sirloin beef dinner me and mum had Aberdeen Angus beef loads of meat dinner was georgeous followed by me N mum had plum and almond tart with custard and wife had choc fudge cake all in all wort a visit

We called here as the first pub had a wedding on. The landlady was very hospitable and accommodated my dietary needs. I was able to order a jacket potato with prawns and salad and she offered to put the marie rose sauce in a separate dish so that I could just have a bit rather than it all being mixed up. My partner had a ploughmans which he enjoyed but did say all it missed was a pickled onion! Good lunchtime prices for food.The beer was excellent my partner informed me. We sat outside in a big beer garden in the sun and next to some chickens. All in all a pleasant afternoon out There appeared to be a restaurant inside and I saw offers for buy one get one free on Monday nights.

We stopped here on the off chance for something to eat and I am glad we did, the food was lovely, and so was the staff. It is a nice old fashioned Pub/ restaurant and a good nice sized garden both at the front and the back of the building.This would be a nice place which i would recommend and is somewhere i would return to.

This pub used to be packed every lunch time and evening but a couple of poor tenants made trade drop off. After a few attempts to bring it back to its former self I was apprehensive about how it would be now under the new owners. It was clean. There where 5 of us and we all ordered of the Lunch Time/light bite menu. The service was good and we all enjoyed the food. So I would recommend it if your passing and want a meal in pleasant surroundings.we ate in the bar but there is a separate restaurant .

We had not been to this pub/restaurant for a couple of years. What we did not know was that it had changed hands. It is now run & owned by a young couple. They were very welcoming and friendly. The menu was quite extensive, with plenty of offers on it. I decided to go for the specials board and chose baked trout with seasonal vegetables. You rarely see trout on the menu these days, salmon seems to have taken over from it. It was very tasty and well cooked, probably locally caught. My partner had Steak pie, the pastry was really flaky and the meat just dropped to pieces. All in all a truly wonderful meal. We will not leave it too long before we go again

Don't want to drag on too much so just get my point straight across haven't been to this place in a few years used to go a lot when we knew the old owners but since then it seems to of just all gone down hill service and food were terrible and just no atmosphere won't be in any rush to head back anytime soon!!!

This time one quite close to home. About 25 of us descended on the Six Ashes for lunch on a Tuesday at mid day. They had been warned so not too much of a shock for them. The Pub is clean but a little dated. Good for you that like the traditional venue with not a lot of frills. I fell foul of the system by being overcharged for the drinks but quickly put right when I complained. There was a large selection of cheaper meals and snacks available and a limited specials board. our table of four opted for the main menue. It was quite expensive but for quality I dont mind paying. The service was quite quick and we were all eating within 20 minutes or so. Three of us opted for the 14 ounce gammon and the fourth a ham with potatoes and parsley sauce. The meals were acceptable but not memorable. We were lucky with beautiful sunshine and finished the visit off with a sit in the gardens before heading home. Not the worst we have had but could do better.

Nice little country pub had the slow braised belly pork which was amazing will return just for this meal quite pricey but decent meals

Just returned home from lunch at The Six Ashes. Chips were luke warm, soup was luke warm and half a sandwich. Poor value for money, unappetising presentation, sulky response to food being sent back as not fit to eat. Mean portions - half a small bowl of soup, half a round of sandwiches, 10 chips each approximately. If they knew to expect the Vintage Car visitors for lunch, they should have ensured more staff were working this lunchtime. Bringing in family members who admit to customers they have been called in at last minute and "don't know what we're doing" is poor management. Manager showed her true colours today - rude, arrogant and clearly unable to cope in a busy environment.

A group of us (24) were visiting a nearby property and I arranged for us to go here for lunch. They were very accommodating. The £5 lunch menu was excellent value and there was a good choice. The food was served promptly and hot. Excellent hosts. Well done! We will certainly visit again.

We stopped off at The Six Ashes for lunch on the way back from Wales. We had burger and chips and mini cod and chips which were £5.00 each. Dogs are allowed which is always a bonus. Nice lunch and you get what you pay for.

We came across this pub on the way back from a bike ride on bank holiday and after reading some of the other reviews on trip advisor we got the impression we were in for a treat. This was not the case, it was very crowded around the bar and hard to even squeeze through to get a drink. There were a lot of empty glasses left around on all of the tables. We ordered food, the starter was nice, creamy garlic mushrooms (my favourite), for mains I had the scampi and my parter had cod and chips. Its fair to say my scampi was one of the worst pub meals I have eaten, the chips were burnt, not just the edges, the whole chip tasted burnt, and the scampi was burnt and chewy, it really was awful, and I have had a bad stomach since. The menu looked good and reasonable prices, perhaps the regular chef was on holiday. The women's toilet was a mess with paper towels everywhere, perhaps because there is only bins in the toilet cubicles not by the sink. We both agreed we won't be returning.

Excellent setting, worth the drive, meat to die for, veg options limited but also outstanding in taste. Veg as it should be, not mushy! good selection of beers, wines and ales.... a little gem that deserves a try x

Dropped in on spec and very pleased we did. Sat in the bar area which was quite cosy. Have to say it was a little chilly at first. I ordered the steak and Guiness pie - came with thick cut crispy chips and veg. The steak was so tender, it fell apart as soon as you touched it. Extremely tasty too. OH had rump steak which was very tender and tasty, albeit a bit too much on the rare side for him (asked for medium). All in all a nice meal at a very reasonable price. We will return.

Recent visit limited choice on lunchtime menu. Pleased to see the wood burning stove unfortunately, this was the only heating so it felt chilly unless you were seated on top of the fire. The lavatory didn't have any hot water. Went for beef and Guiness pie. NB a pie is a filling between a pastry base and top sealed together not a piece of fluffy puff pastry resting on top of the meat which to be fair was tasty. Chips were good. Overall typical pubfood was hoping for somethig better, especially in view of recent reviews.

Fab pub, well worth a visit! We met for a girly catch up and had a fab lunch - we opted for the soup, sandwich & chunky chips which was great value and very tasty. Good friendly service too - will return.

Another fine visit to the six ashes. Food is consistently good. Today we both had the bacon and cheese burger with home made chunky chips, dressed salad and freshly battered onion rings. With two and a half pints and 2 soft drinks the price was just under £25 which is excellent value for the quality of the place. The steak dinner and pork belly are brilliant and a friend says the steak and Guinness pie is to die for. Nothing is too much trouble for the owners, and they are always very accommodating of our 7 month old son. Well worth a visit.

the best pub sunday lunch I've had.good choice of meats.veg best ever - as in cooked perfectly - not "stewed" and mushyYorkshire pudding just as my mom and grandmother used to makewonderful atmospherestaff most attentive and friendlywill be here again next week

We have passed the Six Ashes many times over the years and have always said "we must try it".We booked lunch last Sunday with friends. A typical country pub. Staff very friendly and efficient.Good selection and reasonably priced - food was very good and served hot. Only disappointment was the Yorkshire pud - get the chef to try Mary Berry's recipe!

After being told by a local from bobbington to try this place we drove down from DARLASTON (5of us) and was amazed to c how packed out this place was on a weekend lunch .... Defo doing something right and you wud know as soon as u walk in y that is,nice food,great surroundings with decent people,service second to none,wud recommend to all as I cud say from our experience that u surely won't b disapointed so I suggest u go n try for ur selves!KOPITE JOE

Visited on a Monday lunch time and was pleased to find out from a very pleasant member of staff that lunch was still being served at 14:15 hrs.Ordered soup and a sandwich with chips for both me and my partner. Food served promptly and it was very good indeed ; soup was very tasty, chips were best I've ever had and sandwich was excellent and packed full of beef (surprised it was only one round of bread though).Roaring log fire was nice touch and surroundings were very pleasant. The last time I visited when it was under the previous owners there was an annoying fly in the bar and there was another one there today. It did not spoil a very nice lunch but if you could get rid of the problem that would helpful as we would love to come back and try more from the menu.

Friendly staff, log fire, good beer, nice food and a pub dog. A proper country pub.It was time to try an alternative venue and I had driven past this place many times. Very pleased to have made the decision to step in. Had a good meal in pleasant surroundings and couldn't ask for more.

Has lunch on Saturday with our friends wonderful food great place lovely and warn open fires owner Amy very accommodating and friendly good choice of food I Had Lamb mint & port pie yum Steak & Guinness would also recommend nice outlook over countryside it will be great when the sun comes out again would recommend booking this side of Xmas will go again most definitely the prices where on a par of most pub meals so the value was very good

Had a lovely meal here on Friday night. Charming surroundings, cosy open fire and friendly relaxed atmosphere. Hosts were welcoming and the food choices were wholesome and varied, cooked to perfection and piping hot, with the effort and quality put into the place, it deserves to be successful. We will definitely be going again, with live music on various evenings - it's just perfect.

We were a party of 13, 8 adults and 5 children for a birthday celebration.The service was excellent and the food was out if this world it's my second visit in the last 4 months and excellent service and food both times. We will definitely be returning.
