The Stagg Inn in Herefordshire, County of

Visited for lunch with a friend and we both loved it. We had a selection of small plates which tasted amazing and were presented beautifully. Lisa and her daughter were friendly and attentive and the whole experience was just faultless. Great to have The Stagg back to its former glory.

My wife and I went for Sunday lunch with our dog. The staff were so attentive and friendly. Dogs are allowed in the nice bar area. We had a fantastic Sunday lunch, and we both had beef, which was great quality and lots of. We had the mango and passion meringue, which was to die for. We were that full we got the baked cheesecake to go. Very well priced for the quality or the food and great service. It was that good we booked for the following Sunday. A must visit

If Carlsberg did hotels it would be the Stagg at Titley, from our Gin and Tonic welcome from Lisa and Imogen to our fab Morgan experience the next day, the rooms are fab, very funky and cool furnishings, this is carried throughout the hotel with a fab finish to all the decor, the food was cooked by Keith who is co owner with Lisa, not only is he an excellent chef but also a Morgan expert, he started our day off with a brief run though on controls etc, ( you can feel he is passionate about these cars) we followed a Sat nave route with no hiccups at all, places selected to visit are stunning, he is also a lover of the Scouse accent ( everyone loves us) highly recommended, you will not be disappointed, just planning our next stay

Outside area - presented well Inside - painted over beams and a bit bland bar area Drinks available - samey, no stand out drinks or different choice from a local high street pub Staff appearance - jeans and trainers Menu - over priced small plates Wine - expensive selection, quite over priced. Having been visiting The Stagg since 1970 I was quite looking forward to seeing how it has been changed ( I have seen the photos on their social media page and was bit shocked at the taste of decor for a country pub, but went in with an open mind) Upon arrival I looked at the beer selection, not great, my tounge in cheek comment about poor choice was poorly met, no barmaid banter here it seems! We were seated in the bar area which has been stripped of all its character and has a generic Newgate obscene clock on the wall! I asked for the wine list and was met with apologies?? Why apologise for giving me a list. Well....the prices were just as ridiculous as the beams all being painted over! I asked if the was a house wine available and was met with, yes it's £8 a glass, it's very cheap, (I don't want cheap wine) After this I had the oldest of the bar staff come over to me and say I seemed to have an attitude and I can leave if I want to, so I did! What a shame, mind you a 6oz steak and chips for £34 isn't how I want to spend my money.

Had a wonderful meal here this evening. The food was delicious and the service was very friendly and attentive. All round a delightful experience.

Excellent food and good selection of unusual beers which makes a change from the usual pubs. Nice wine list as well

Not visited for many years but the standards of the food are just as high as they were then. Beautifully cooked food made the evening one to remember. Pricing is very sensible too. We are already looking forward now to our next visit.

There appears to be several listings on TripAdvisor for the The Stagg Inn hence for sake of completeness, here's my review of my latest visit in Aug 2022 also posted on one other listing: I've visited the Stagg Inn many many times and always had exceptional food. But this last time was.... deeply disappointing. The food was dreadful, bland, lacked seasoning, was smaller portioned than Stagg of old, and was much higher priced. Specifically, the Duck breast skin was heavily burnt - we thought we smelled burning! The dish lacked the ingredients listed (no ginger or soy) and was replaced with a salty-pancetta-puy-lentil base. The scallops lacked pea puree (previously a Stagg signature dish) but had plenty of unharmed peas. The stonefish dish was amateur - with no crispy skin, a crab-less sauce vierge and undercooked potatoes. All in all, not a great experience and we now have no reason to return or recommend the place since The Stagg Inn changed hands.

What a find from the internet, even though the waitress was by herself we were served in a friendly, timely , professional manner with even the chef serving us food. The food was perfect with enough to satisfy a healthy appetite. Well presented. The house red was superb which tells you a lot about the place. Will definitely visit again.

First class service serving first class food. Starters and mains sourced locally where possible. Highlight was the chicken main course which was perfectly cooked. Rhubarb dessert also a show stopper. Cool jazz background and elegant decor complete the experience.

We have visited many times in the past but this was our first visit under new ownership. We had 3 courses each and every mouthful was delicious. We were made to feel very welcome and the service was as excellent as the food and we can only recommend that you try it. We are looking forward to returning very soon

The pandemic and personal circumstances have kept us undoors for ages. We decided that enough was enough and had supper in The Stagg Inn, Titley. We enjoyed one of the most memorable meals we have had in years. (Sweetbreads followed by sea bass, and soft-shelled crab followed by venison since you ask) Superb cooking, comforting decor and friendly, unpretentious service. It really was a tonic. We will return for sure.

Drove 20 miles to visit this pub mid PM August bank holiday after reading some great reviews. Their website said ‘open all day’ when I arrived I was rudely told “we’re closed” and the door slammed! A real shame, I wouldn’t have written this review if the lady was a little more polite!!

Was invited for a taster session as a member of staff after applying for a job as a waiter there. Having had good experiences as a customer in the past, I took up the offer. How naïve I was. The owners and chefs treated the other members of staff inhumanely. There was racism, swearing, and not the professionalism I expected from a former Michelin star pub. I can now see why they get through so many staff so quickly. Nicola and the other staff desperately need to step up their game if they wish to maintain staff. Do not apply for a job or even give them your money as a customer. Other pubs are a far safer bet.

I had a really great steak sandwich for lunch, with a pint of bitter from Weobley. I chose to sit in the garden on a fine day, and arrived early enough to be able to choose the best spot. Lunch alone can be depressing, but this was the opposite, enjoying the garden while eating a superb lunch and receiving friendly, attentive but not intrusive service. Great value too. The garden filled up while I was there but the tables are very well separated and I didn't see anyone taking risks. Pre-Covid people came from London to eat here, I recommend you book now before the crowds return in force.

This place is outstanding food at a very reasonable price. Pigeon and scallops as starters were cooked and presented perfectly. Duck for my main again was cooked to perfection and full of flavour and tender. Also steak as a starter and the best rump steak eaten in a long time. To finish off fresh lemon tart and homemade chocolate mousse served with a mini meringue both were very nice.

We were made to feel very welcome by all the staff. Breakfasts and evening meals were delicious. We very much enjoyed staying in the Old Vicarage and wandering around the large garden there.

We were met by lovely bar staff when we checked in. The room was 'country cottagey' and clean and comfortable. All staff that dealt with us during our stay were fabulous. We took our dogs too and they were made very welcome. The food in the evening was just wonderful including the little extras! The wine list was good including an excellent choice of half bottles, which is great when they are two of you. Breakfast in the garden was lovely . Highly recommended.

If you truly love food like I do you will love The Stagg. They have an amazing cocktail list including a really long non alcoholic one which is nice if you’re the driver to have the choice of something more interesting than the norm. We shared nibbles which included homemade crisps. They came in a paper bag but what I loved the most was they were lightly salted but there was dipping salt on the side for the more salty fan like me. My daughter had the pulled pork Bonbons and decided she could have had them at every course. The cauliflower cheese croquet were equally as good in my opinion. We all loved our main course from the home cured salmon to the lamb and the perfectly cooked steak. The lemon tart dessert was superb with its caramelised top. The Stagg deserves every accolade it gets.

Not quite Review of The Stagg Inn Pending review Not quite good enough. At 25% per head dearer than top end pub grub you expect this restaurant to be heading for a Michelin star. Its not... waiters leaning across you to serve someone (because they cant get behind your chair due to tables being too close) - and when clearing tables clearly stacking plates so they can clear in 1 visit is bad. On receiving each of the 4 courses not once were we visited moments later to ask if all was ok,,, on receiving the last plate of each course not once were we asked if "while we are here can we get anybody some drinks" - service standards were mediocre at best with no attention to detail... ok you have queen scallops and fillet steak which you wont find as standard elsewhere but 3 of the main course were cold including the fillet steak which was at best rare and not medium rare as ordered... whilst you should never crucify this cut of meat and must be careful you should know how to present it correctly and with heat... Overall it is not worth the extra per head... it just isnt...

What a superb find and probably best pub we have been to during our week’s holiday. Very upmarket without being pretentious - fantastic food and warm welcome from lovely landlady. Highly recommend.

It had been a while since we'd visited the Stagg, so we weren't sure it would live up to our memories of past experience. We needn't have worried - the same people were in charge, front and back of house, and the food was up to the usual standard. Sunday lunch is served as three courses, with no option for a more modest two courses, but it still represented very good value, given the quality of the food. I was pleased to see that they're now offering a vegan option for Sunday lunch, in addition to the usual roasts and fish.

Visit 1 - Sunday lunch for 4, table only laid for 3, not a quiet area as requested on the web site. Off hand and slap dash giving very slow service, I had to find a member of front of house to ask for a dessert menu. But the food was fantastic, what a pity the chef was let down by the service. Visit 2- Wednesday lunch for 2 and a different front of house team, this time fantastic service and food. We will go back and trust that the Sunday team are not on the rota.

A warm welcome, beautiful setting, great food and excellent service. We went for dinner on Saturday and lunch on Mothers Day, and even if there had not been variations to the menu it would still have offered variety. Great food, gorgeous presentation and ample portions! Only sorry I'm going back to France !

Fantastic staff, always look after our elderly grandfather and his partner so well. Fantastic food on the Sunday set menu. After checking my main was wheat free I was surprised by lovely warm gluten free bread so I wasn't left out when everyone else was tucking in to their heavenly smelling sourdough!

Recently booked a meal at the Stagg for a post New Year lunch with the extended family. There were quite a few of us and 6 kids in total. The food was great, but unfortunately the staff were incredibly unfriendly. We were very disappointed in the service (aside from the lovely waitress who greeted us) as the manager and waiter seemed almost annoyed that we had visited them which made it hard to relax. Such a shame as the food was very nice.

We called the Stagg a couple of days before our visit as they book up quickly.

We had a weekend here in this pub with rooms. Delicious food and drinks. We enjoyed the breakfasts - lovely homemade marmalade, proper local bread and excellent quality ingredients. The cocktails were very good as well as a variety of gins and the Penderyn Welsh Whiskey from the Brecons. Lots of locally sourced meat, fruit and vegetables and they were very accommodating for a dairy free diet. Friendly helpful staff and welcoming atmosphere. Would recommend for a treat.

Having just moved to the area a few months ago, The Stagg had been recommended to us. We decided to book the Sunday lunch and found it to be everything we had been told and more. We received a warm welcome and were pleased with the choices of the set lunch menu. I can recommend the smoked salmon and also the artichoke soup. The roast beef had more than enough trimmings, cauliflower cheese was cooked to perfection, all veg. tasted like they were homegrown. Puddings were delicious- lemon tart with damson ice cream . The creme brûlée’s vanilla and coffee were superb. Overall we could not fault anything with the food served, the service given and the atmosphere. We will most definitely be making a return visit very soon!

A friendly greeting isn't necessarily a prelude to a great evening, but at the Stagg Inn it was. The service was brilliant throughout.

Very busy, car park packed, good sign. Lovely atmosphere and very welcoming owner. Good Sunday lunch, trout tartare and duck terrine followed by roast beef with all the trimmings, tender pork loin, disappointing hard broad beans and small tasteless fondant potato, desserts to die for, creamy bread and butter pudding, lemon tart with cassis sorbet and blackcurrants.

2nd visit to The Stagg, last time about 9 years ago. That occasion was a late lunch. It had been a weird day in court, suing bad tenants and winning, but whatever the reason, we left The Stagg not especially impressed that day.

I have eaten here for a week day lunch and and Sunday evening meal, both were fantastic, help with wine choice, menu full of local in season specials. We had the duck and pork, both were super.

What a fabulous country pub! The exterior is charm itself. You know straightaway that you are in for a great experience. The proprietress welcomed us warmly and made a big fuss over our dogs. She clearly runs a tight ship as all the staff follow her example and were delightful and on the ball. The wine selection was excellent and fairly priced and the food delicious, well prepared and well presented. Really everything was perfect. They even made a pretty good fist of the Expresso Martini I had for dessert! We have 4 more nights in the area and already planning a return visit!

We were staying locally and found the menu in the information book. we had the duck and it was amazing. The waitress was very attentive and we had a lovely evening.

Fabulous lunch at The Stagg Inn. One of the party is vegan and she said it was the best vegan meal she had ever had. In fact we all thought it was the best meal we had ever had ! As it was our wedding lunch the staff made extra touches which just made the meal very special. Thank you.

Nicola and the rest of the staff made this a wonderful birthday celebration. We started with bubbly on the patio (it was a gorgeous day) and then a delicious meal in our own space. Most of the food was locally sourced, seasonal and high quality. We were a big group of 18 but all the courses came at a similar time for everyone. It just couldn’t have been more special. Many thanks for a brilliant evening.

This is our first visit, the venue is a quaint pub somewhat out in the sticks in rural Hereford.

We were staying at Castle Hill House in Kington and needed somewhere to have our evening meal. The owner recommended The Stagg, and so we drove over there having only read their publicity flyer. Our meal was delicious and we both enjoyed the experience. The locally-made ice cream was especially scrumptous. I gather it gets busy with an appreciative local clientele, so we rang and made a reservation a couple of hours in advance.

Lovely pub with in our opinion a nicely balanced menu and cooked to perfection. Luckily this is now one of our locals and we plan on being a regular, if you like good local produce cooked properly this is the place for a quiet lunch.

Never been to the stagg before so upon arrival was very happy to see the old building and beautiful setting. Once inside however, the barmaid was so Intrested in answering the telephone I had to say 4 times how I preferred my drink to be served.

We all had a wonderful Sunday lunch it was amazing value and all enjoyed it so much we have booked for Christmas Eve lunch 2018

Always a good meal, but the menu is always very same, same. Could do with more imagination and creativity.

Mi esposo y yo recientemente cenamos en el Stagg Inn por recomendación de un amigo. Es un pub/restaurante pintoresco y lo que nos impactó en primera fue lo amplia que era el comedor. Las mesas estaban bien separadas y a diferencia de otros restaurantes que no habían intentado meter tantos cubre como sea posible. El servicio era amable y eficiente.

Visited for two nights in a party of 8 . All agreed that the food was excellent and good value. All the staff were very friendly. Being able to stay on site a huge bonus.

Esta es nuestra visita anual y que no volvería a menos que todavía era tan bueno! Fue uno de los primeros pubs para recibir una estrella Michelin y es todavía tranquilamente orquestada. Siempre nos da Nicola, así como el olor de la cocina y la...

Precioso edificio pero creo que necesita renovar su decoración. Servicio de atención al cliente y una cálida y agradable bienvenida. Toda la comida estaba muy bien preparado, muy bien presentada y caliente pero un poco desequilibradas, digo esto porque mi esposa vieiras para empezar, muy...

Cuatro de nosotros tuvimos una comida aquí para mi 30. Nos quedamos impresionados con la comida y el servicio, además de las bebidas sin alcohol (probablemente el mejor que he tenido, como un batido de ruibarbo!). Tuvimos algunos pan black pudding como un aperitivo, tuve...

La primera vez que fui, me quedé muy decepcionado. Debido a pares recomendaciones Revisited y me alegro de haber tenido buena comida y servicio. Esta visita, la comida era buena, pero el servicio fue negativa. Eficiente, pero antipático. Rápido pero obligado. Se distrae de lo que era una buena comida. No sé si me volveré a visitar.

La clasificación es probablemente generosa como realmente no me gusta dar comentarios negativos.

Nosotros somos visitantes habituales de este hotel y tengo que decir que sin duda este es un excepcional lugar para comer el domingo. La calidad de la comida es espléndido, un lugar de servicio en. Hemos estado viniendo durante años y nunca he sido decepcionado.

Arrived early for pre dinner drink only to be told there was no draft bitter only over chilled flat pale ale after 15 mins waitress pulled off some average butty Bach bitter Pigeon starter was over priced and tasteless £ 8 50Main meal 3 miniature lamb chops for £18 50 once again average to say the least Staff inexperienced for this level of dining Won't be going again Much better out there

You wouldn't expect such fab food in the middle of nowhere but The Stagg didnt dissapoint. Ok, I knew it was a Michelin starred pub before we visited, but it lived up to its accolades. I was especially pleased to see some great drinks for drivers as unless you're staying it is a bit of a trek to get to. The wild garlic pesto was divine, great guinea fowl and the sherry cheesecake to die for. Next time i'm lost in this area I shall be sure to seek The Stagg out.

This restaurant had been recommended to us by a number of friends and whilst we weren't disappointed I'm not sure it totally lived up to our expectations. I can't quite say why because the food was excellent and whilst not overly expensive it certainly couldn't be described as inexpensive. It would have been nice, perhaps if we could have sat somewhere with our pre-dinner drinks and mulled over the menu instead of having to go straight to our table. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant because the food was very good and very different to other restaurants we have dined at. Perhaps, it just lacked that certain bit of atmosphere; we were in the extension part which didn't look quite as inviting as the original bar.

I visited a year ago and was very disappointed with salty food and slow service caused by insufficient staff. What a change! Lovely welcome, plenty of friendly smiling waitresses and very good food. It's a great building which also has a well stocked bar. So glad I revisited.

Visited for my son's birthday as he loves his food and likes trying good restaurants.Overall, I would say that it was a good experience, but not great and far from the best we have had - our waiter was very polite, but was a bit over the top - would have been lovely if toned down a fraction!!I had the salmon and crab for starter and the flavour was very good - my son had the offal and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had fish for the main, and though nice, was nothing to write home about - my son had the belly pork and it was quite fatty - i know you expect this of belly pork, but fattier than average. My daughter had the duck, which she thoroughly enjoyed.There was a nice choice of puddings - I had the three creme brulee and these were very good - the coffee one especially. My son had the lemon tart, with marmalade ice cream - he did not enjoy the flavour combination.The highlight though was the cocktail menu - I had a stunning rhubarb one and would go back to just repeat that.Overall, it was a lovely dining experience, but not quite at the excellent point for us.

I visited (for the fourth time) with my wife for my birthday. Absolutely superb dinner, great welcome and service, good local beers and gin and above all, dog friendly. We stayed overnight in one of the bedrooms at the pub (they also have rooms at the old vicarage in the village).Absolutely nothing to fault and I had a great birthday.For dog owners - there's some lovely countryside around and Charlie certainly enjoyed his walks!

Extremely pleasant visit to this lovely gastropub. Couldn't fault anything, food was excellent....scallops with various cauliflower accompaniments, halibut with spinach, samphire, tapenade, parmentier potatoes, finished with a gorgeous chocolate mix of desserts....Good service, pleasant atmosphere, well worth a visit, and will return......

I had the pleasure of eating there last week. A delightful old style pub restaurant with a great atmosphere. The food was excellent matched by a quiet friendly and efficient service. From the starter of scallops and a main of venison and finishing with a delicious cheese board including a Welsh blue cheese I couldn't fault the quality, presentation of adequacy of the servings - it was just excellent. The wine list will suit all tastes and the gantry has a fair amount of decent malts for the more discerning whisky drinker. If and when I am in the area again a visit to the Stagg will be a given. I would thoroughly recommend this pub restaurant as a place to visit.

This was our first visit to this delightful pub but it wont be our last. The pub itself has all the atmosphere you could want and you immediately felt welcome. Hidden inside is a collection of different shaped and sized restaurant rooms, and it was in one of these that we enjoyed one of the best meals we have had in this country. The choice was difficult, it all looked tempting, and the food was well presented and delicious. A totally satisfying experience.

Consistently good. Fabulous cheese board. Pretty much all food locally sourced. Good range of beers, wines and ciders. The Stagg also has rooms. It's a 45 minute drive for us, but worth it every time.

We have been to The Stagg at Titley several times and would always recommend it without hesitation. The pub is unpretentious, with slate floors and traditional wooden furniture, tasteful décor without the need of pompous frills; it provides an elegant yet traditional ambience. The staff are courteous, always available without being intrusive, and service is excellent. But what makes The Stagg stand out from other very pleasant pubs is the amazing culinary delights that it offers and an impressive and knowledgeable wine list and extensive selection of inspired non-alcoholic drinks (for those not wishing to drive the pub also provides accommodation). While awaiting starters we were provided with impatients of home cooked crisps and breads and offered a selection of nibbles including salt and pepper squid and whitebait. We chose starters of sea trout, a light refreshing and well balanced salad, and the most delectable steak tartare that melted in the mouth and was a taste sensation. Venison and steak followed both of which were faultless. A selection of Crème Brûlée and lemon tart was the finale to a truly magnificent production. This is a restaurant where you will want to take your time, savour the flavours, enjoy the surroundings and plan your next visit. We’ve already booked for Christmas!

Just been for lunch, booked at short notice. Superb beer and the best meal I have had outside France. Great value for money and very good service, none of our group of 4 left anything. It is obvious why it has a Michelin star.The very rare steak was cooked to perfection, others had the duck and the sole all of which were well appreciated as were the desserts.

This is a pub.Well, it looks like one from the outside and does serve good local beers but...It also has a Michelin star and takes dogs in the bar area and garden.There's a rare combination.We went for lunch .I had calamari- with lovely light tempura batter and excellent home made sweet chilli sauce, then whitebait. The high spot was pudding . The Stagg is famed for its bread and butter pudding and we found out why. Forget stodgy heaviness and find light deliciousness.Maybe it is the best bread and butter pudding in the world- I have never had better and doubt I ever will. A wonderful place

This was the second time I have been to this pub/restaurant. It is a pleasant place with a mix of stone and wooden floors. We went to the stagg for a family celebratory meal. The food was ok nothing out of the ordinary. I had rump steak that was cooked just how I had asked. It came with a steel cup of chips vine cherry tomatoes and some wooded trays of large leafed salad were put on the table to share. Some ordered lamb which I am told was lovely, however that came with dauphinois potato served on a wooden coaster!! Literally one disc! No vegetables just a share in the large leaves! Very minimal and for £20 this seemed a rather expensive. A few people had puddings. The cheesecake was a little different- the biscuit base was a few crumbs sprinkled around a cheesecake topping that was cut into squares placed on top of the crumbs! The trio of creme brûlée was good and nicely presented. It was a great evening of company but I really don't understand where the wow factor is with the food? It's expensive and nothing really to write home about. For a Michelin star I really have had better meals and much better value than here! Nothing to go rushing back for I'm afraid. Hanging onto a reputation from previous years is all I can really think!

Looking for a treat during Presteigne Music Festival and the Stagg was a top notch one. Chose the Stagg on account of the inviting menu on their website. Started with the tasty cocktail of the week accompanied by the best home made salt and vinegar crisps on the planet. Super scallops and sublime sweetbreads. Mains equally delicious and chef to commended on courage on pig's cheek. Rump steak succulent. Wine list has excellent choice both in type and price.Post prandial seat in the garden well relaxing.

We've been to The Stagg on many occasions as we live fairly locally and the food has never failed to be less than excellent. It was my husband's birthday over the Bank Holiday so of course we booked a table at The Stagg and yet again both the food and the service were first class. As I am also a vegetarian I really appreciate the separate Vegetarian Menu that is given out to all with the main menu. A Vegetarian Menu that actually gives me good choices as opposed to the standard sole vegetarian option (and that's invariably either risotto or cheese). So my husband was happy (and not just because I was paying and driving) and I was happy (because the food was yummy) All in all a very successful evening. Thank you to all at The Stagg

Came highly recommended by nephew who's a chef so we decided to pop in for lunch on the off chance, after visiting Presteigne and the Rodd. Looks so interesting from the outside as well. Had a delightful lunch sausages and mash ( but exceptional according to my husband and scallops with accompaniments that were scrumptious then a very filling pud. Served with great grace in a friendly atmosphere. Lucky to get a table I think. Good value for money but treat as a special occasion

Birthday lunch treat with my sons - lovely atmosphere, friendly service and delicious food. It was a big sporting weekend so the restaurant was quiet but lost nothing in atmosphere with the attentive staff and colourful food. Will definitely return

Back in 2001, The Stagg was I believe, the very first pub to be awarded a Michelin Star and richly deserved I'm sure it was. It is still an exceptional pub serving exceptional food. It sets the bar very high and so it should be judged I think not by all the other pubs, but by those very high standards that it has set for itself.So, when you notify in advance that one of your party (Mrs. Hindsight) is a gluten free diner, you are entitled to be a bit miffed when glutinous olive flatbread squares are brought to her - not once, but two nights running. When her otherwise sublime dessert (dark chocolate sorbet and coffee ice cream) is served on a bed of glutinous biscuit crumbs despite that fact that our 'ticket' bears the large capital letters GF, it really starts to get very irritating. It was the same at breakfast, glutinous toast BOTH mornings. The breakfast is superb. I did the full English one day and the poached kipper the next and both were terrific. But the toast thing shouldn't happen. OK, that's the GF moan over with.Next moan is the vegetable rationing. I like vegetables. Vegetables are healthy I am often told.On our second night at the Stagg, I had the lamb rack and slow roasted shoulder which was delicious but it was accompanied by less than half of one small of new potato. Seriously. I like new potatoes and craved a whole one. Even two. Mrs. Hindsight had the chicken. It too was delicious but was accompanied by a half inch thick slice from a corn on the cob. Mrs. H likes a bit of corn on the cob and was disappointed that this one cob would feed ten diners and felt that sharing it with only three or four other people might have been better. Seriously though, all the dishes would benefit from a little bit more of the vegetable accompaniments in my opinion.I was also a bit hacked off when I was charged for a glass of port which I had with a cheese board which I had at first declined and subsequently arrived unbidden. I assumed that it was a complimentary gesture from the establishment as we were spending so much money. Apparently not.Now some praise to balance things up. All the food was extremely good. The monkfish starter with curried cauliflower and the raisin purée was a revelation. The Marmalade Mule cocktail is now a firm favourite of Mrs. Hindsight and she had to go home with a bottle of the local vodka it's made from.By the way, we stayed at the Vicarage - effectively an annexe to the pub a few hundred yards down the village high street It was very disappointing - especially in view of the cost.

It had been a few months since our last visit and it is very reassuring to be able to return with relatives who have not been before and to find the same superb quality of food, drink and service. When you have said just how delicious dinner there is going to be, it is so comforting to know that it is still to the previous high standards. Everyone's dishes & whole dining experience were totally memorable - in just the right way.

We had a lovely evening at The Stagg Inn - all of the staff were knowledgeable about the food, the restaurant was nice with comfy upholstered chairs and no annoying piped music, and the food was beautiful. My husband had the cheese board which was extensive. Value for money was very good too. We will definitely return if we are in the area.

We were staying with friends in the area and The Stagg Inn was recommended for Sunday lunch - we were not disappointed ! The food, presentation and service were second to none ! My only criticism was the "scratchy" surface of the plates used for the starter and dessert ! If in the area we will certainly book for another dining experience !

We went as a party of 8 on the eve of a 125mile bike ride and what a way to start!The quality of the food, ingredients and presentation was first class.Staff extremely knowledgeable regarding the wine list and cheese board (22 cheeses = epic!)Prices in line with the quality of food and the overall dining experience.Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Service was excellent. Food presentation and quality excellent. Prices steep! We went with one other couple who had been there before and we followed their lead when ordering.

Amazing gastronomic food in the middle of know where, Local produce mostly, staff helpful and garden beautiful , a little oasis in the middle of Herefordshire

En route to Wales we decided to start our bank holiday weekend with lunch at The Stagg. Not t he easiest place to find, we thought that the satnav was on the blink but after about a mile on a single track road, there it was and well worth the trouble.We were warmly welcomed by the staff and nothing was too much trouble. There is a choice of a la carte menu or bar menu. As we had our two grandchildren with us we opted for the bar menu and certainly weren't disappointed. They ordered from the children's menu, I ordered from the vegetarian choice which was absolutely delicious, goat's cheese tart. My husband and son had the steak sandwich, my husband pronouncing it the best steak he had had when eating out. Our daughter in law had the sea bass goujons and everything was beautifully presented and cooked.We did manage puddings somehow, which were all stunning. It's just a shame for us thatThe Stagg is not nearer we would definitely be visiting again. If you find yourself in the area, don't miss it!

We visited for my husbands birthday and had a wonderful meal. We started off with cocktails for the ladies and beers for the boys. For starters we had lamb sweetbreads, monkfish, scallops, lemon cured trout and steak tartare all very tasty and we all tried each other's dishes! For mains we had salmon, sea bass, venison, duck and fillet all were amazing, I had the sea bass, prawns and samphire which was delicious. For puddings we had cheeseboard, cheesecake, bread & butter pudding, chocolate mousse and creme brûlée. We had a fantastic night, the food was amazing and a few drinks were had. The service is just enough and not intrusive and the owner is just lovely. Will definitely visit again

My husband and I had been recommended this brilliant pub, good welcome, great food and wonderful cider and perry. Service was tiptop too. Couldnt fault it and would certainly go again.

Unfortunately from beginning to end the service at The Stagg Inn was very disappointing to say the least. When we arrived we were immediately seated and our drinks orders taken. Five minutes later the same waitress returned to take our drinks orders again - seemly oblivious to previous conversation. Then when our drinks arrived the empty glasses were left and our table became cluttered. During our first course a party were seated across from us but received their starters and main ahead of our main course! The waitress bumped our plates into my partner’s shoulder a number of times when clearing the table and to top it off my mother’s desert was taken from her before she had finished!I really would not recommend the restaurant to anyone – it really is not worth the trip...

I have been lucky enough to et at this restaurant on a few occasions. The food is incredible, the setting and atmosphere superb and in an incredible location. Most people are just blown away by everything this restaurant has to offer. UNFORTUNATELY I had a bad experience two Sundays ago. We are local farmers to the Stagg. I had a friend over from America and wanted to show him how we did food in this country. I invited other local friends of ours, on the understanding that it was the place to go for Sunday lunch and the beef was to die for. I have very knowledgable foodies and farmers are so hard to please. The beef was dire. Tasted ok but the connective tissue and fat was totally inedible. One of my guests asked for a steak knife it was so bad. I heard my husband and another friend moaning like mad. Being British, I didn't make a fuss there and then as we were having great fun and much wine had flowed. I had so much grief from my friends who had unfortunately had the beef. I felt compelled to email my displeasure. The reply was that they had had several comments of praise all day about the food. I was told where it had come from and the butcher who sold it… I was not pleased with this reply as I felt I should have been offered some recompense. I know we will never eat there again and neither will our friends. It makes no difference as people will still flock there. Good customer relations are very important in the hospitality business but not on this occasion…. so sad.

A place to die for, we are very local and its one of our best places to eat for miles around, we love it, never had anything I did not like, keep up the fantastic work .

First visit following a strong recommendation. Very pleasant ambiance, good menu options and good quality food.Very much worth a revisit.

Back again at The Stagg which never fails to keep a consistently high standard of food and service and is terrific valueHad grouse for the first time - cooked to succullent perfection and the bread and ate the butter pudding which beats anything we have had in any other restaurantWines many under £18 a snip.Well done to Steve and NicolaBasil Thomas

For our family this is the "go-to" place for special occasions. It is possible to dine more cheaply in this neck of the woods - but given the superb quality of the food, presentation and ambience, who would want to?Lunches, and snacks outside in Summer, are good, but it is the dining that is really, really special. It is easy to see how and why The Stagg gained a Michelin Star. Food is locally sourced - a great strength of many restaurants in this area of the country - but it is the imagination and sheer quality of the way it is treated and presented that is exceptional. This quality has been maintained over the last 2 years, in our experience, which is why I am comfortable in giving an enthusiastic recommendation.

This was an odd eating experience. Really good quality ingredients, my cod was certainly ample as a main course but alas so cold - I suspected it took a while being plated up as my husband's delicious( and warm) duck was prepared. I would have mentionned it but then noone serving came over at any point in the meal to invite any conversation whatsoever. Personally, its a shame when eateries offer customers so little in the way of dialogue. The place needs armosphere and a tad more personality when serving such potentially great food!

Went for lunch at the Stagg recently and it was fantastic. The welcome we had was very warm. Two of us had a pint of Butty Bach which was great and my wife had a glass of house rose which was to her pleasing. We ordered our meal and we were brought homemade crisps with a balsamic foam. They also brought us a cheese a beetroot bread that looked like a cake and tasted delicious. The mains were great and between us had the sausages, steak sandwich and sea bass goujons. We shared one of the legendary bread and butter puddings which was out of this world. A fantastic lunch, well done The Stagg.

We visited here for a friends birthday booked Sunday lunch for 4 arrived 2.15 & the place was packed no parking outside full inside so glad we booked the service was fast & very friendly the food was faultless 3 courses of amazing food for £21 WOW we had such a great time we were the last table to leave the staff had no problems with us sitting there chatting even though they had 50 booked already for that Sunday evening what a great day what a great place can't wait to return BUT do book as they are very busy ❤️

We couldn't fault the food, but the staff were at best, indifferent, and at worst, totally inattentive. We visited as an anniversary treat. When I wanted another glass of wine I went to the bar and was completely ignored by 3 members of staff. When I did finally attract someone's attention, I felt as though I was being a nuisance and was told to sit down and a drink would follow. Twenty minutes later, my husband went to the bar to ask where my drink had got to. We are thinking of moving to the area, but sadly, The Stagg won't be on our list of places to eat.

We had a lovely meal in simple but very pleasant surroundings. The menu was excellent. The service was friendly and excellent. The food done just right.

I have been to the Stagg several times over the past ten years and they never disappoint.The food is excellent as is the ambiance. Nicola's front of house skills are second to none, while her husband produces wonderful meals.The vicarage is my favourite place today but this weekend we were in the pub and have a very comfortable stay.Decent tea and coffee in the room and a delicious brownie were a definite bonus.A delightful getaway from the rat race.

I have often heard people talk in slightly hushed tones when mentioning the Stagg at Titley, but had never had the opportunity to visit. Such a moment arrived when the SO told me we were going for my birthday treat. Yummy, now I could find out what everyone was whispering about.Fast forward and a lovely late September Sunday lunchtime. The Stagg itself is a lovely old place with neat boxed hedge gardens and herb plantings all round the gravelled parking. The décor is to my mind a trifle tired and in need of some gentle attention, but no matter, one cant eat anaglypta wallpaper. Attentive waiting that really couldn't be faulted and table settings that were cosy to plain. We opted for the £21 three course sunday lunch, neither of us are big eaters so we asked if we could just have two, no, but you can swop a course for coffee. Hmm not such a good deal. Roast beef it was then. Two good slices of roast rump of Herefordshire beef, a real yorkshire, a couple of roasties and some rather dull floury new potatoes. This was accompanied by a copper pan of stir-fried curly cabbage and some rather watery cauliflower cheese. The gravy was a travesty and really should be an integral part of the overall enjoyment, grey and thin, The beef was good, good flavour and tender, but the plates were cool to tepid and did nothing to maintain the temperature of the food. We both had the Crème Brulee which was so richly creamed as to be slightly nauseating, the ginger one was not. I am afraid I would not rush back as the Tram at Eardisley is nearer and far better value and the atmosphere is charming.

Another wonderful meal - Sunday lunch. For appetisers two of us had goats cheese with fennel and apple (superb) and one had sweetbreads (equally good). For main courses we had lamb, sea bass and, very kindly, they gave our son sweetbreads as a main course (they're just simply his favourite thing to eat). Only one desert, honey pannacotta with blackberry jelly, blackberry sorbet and granola - SO good! We have to mention the wine list here - surely one of the best to be found. We will definitely be back - the welcome is always so warm and friendly and the service good and prompt.

From the facade of the restaurant it all looked set to be a fantastic evening. The menu was a little simple/safe for my liking. The quality of the food was better than average however not what I was expecting. My beer was flat and tasteless, and never received a pudding. On a good day I think this could be good, but won't be returning in a hurry.

Wow, Without a doubt this had to be the best meal I have ever had! Everything was absolutly perfect.Creative, full of distinct flavours, cooked perfectly and beautifully presented. This was a very special evening for us and we were treated soo well, it was almost as if they knew! I can not praise this restaurant enough. My husband's beet infused salmon was unlike anything I have ever tasted and I would highly suggest anyone visiting to order the duck. It was absolutly amazing! I love duck and I have never had it cooked so perfectly. We will absolutly be back! Thank you so much for making our 10th Anniversary so perfect!

I took my husband there as a surprise for his birthday. The location is very pretty. The food lovely with good front of house. The balsamic foam was very nice plus the steak with wild garlic butter gorgeous and for desert the treacle tart was delicious. A very enjoyable meal.

Walking up through the charming gardens into the pub I was excited and the unfriendliness of the man behind the bar was unfortunate. We eventually got some conversation out of him when we paid but it was off-putting. The food and the other waitresses were as excellent and welcoming as we had hoped. A divine Jerusalem artichoke and truffle soup, was followed by perfectly cooked duck breast and leg with a buttery celeriac mash and then a strawberry dessert medley. My husband had pigeon breast, lamb rack and shoulder, and bread and butter pudding. Great wines. It was a delicious meal in an informal, charming setting but would have been improved by a greater sense of welcome in our reception.

We arrived for lunch on a baking hot day and opted to eat inside in the cool and comfortable dining room. We had a lovely warm welcome from the manager and the waitress was efficient and friendly.While we looked at the menus some hand made crisps and balsamic foam were brought to our table for us to nibble on and the the most fabulous home made foccacia and soda bread. For starters I had scallops, plump, fresh and beautifully cooked; my husband had lamb sweetbreads, which he raved about. I had the beef fillet with chips and salad and my husband had lamb cooked 3 ways with fresh green vegetables and new potatos for our mains - all cooked to perfection. We shared a dessert of raspberry sorbet, ice cream, fresh raspberries and meringue.I cannot praise the Stagg highly enough and would recommend it to anyone. The food was better than some Michelin-starred restaurants I've been to.

Absolutely fantastic food. The scallops are to die for. Excellent service and we were blessed with beautiful weather so ate outside. Would definitely come again.

Great food and the set Sunday lunch menu is very reasonably priced - desserts especially good !Nice atmosphere and service, would recommend that when booking you ask to sit in the area on the left of the bar, it has more atmosphere.Seasonal and local produce well executed and tasty !
