The Star Hotel - Ember Inns in Lichfield

Beautiful meal today,great service.

Another lovely meal with friends. New menu and festive options on menu available.

Always amazing - my children love the food and we are always made to feel very welcome. Lovely staff

Great food, great atmosphere. Had a lovely night 😊

Great food and customer service. We will definitely be back soon!

Looking very tired.. wallpaper coming off where table rubbed against wall. Picture been down at least a year ago, still showing as filler around it. Always cold. Staff pleasant enough.

Excellent customer service throughout

Great party. Fantastic helpful staff. And great food selection.

Everything was very good, when in Burntwood and you are hungry this place is a must

Staff are very friendly and the pub has a great atmosphere. The beer is great and the food is good value for money.

First time here and even though it was fireworks night and the place was very busy, we didn't wait long for our food, which was very nice and good value for money, we were served quickly at the bar and the staff were very attentive. Highly recommended.

Meal was not appealing at all ordered a surf and turf however when I got it the tomato had seen better days the onion ring was a piece of onion no resemblance at all, then to top it all there was no prawns, after asking the staff were very dismissive wouldn't go again

What a find! Was passing by and noticed this charming little pub on the way back from a meeting in Lichfield- great food and amazing service, will definitely make an effort to return

Lovely place so warm and welcoming, no faults with this pub

Just moved into the area, this is a gem good food, beer and service is amazing. And a Camra pub more of these please. Something on the menu for everyone.

Loved the star hotel and enjoyed a lovely meal . Only thing I will say about it is it needs a bit of TLC as needs decorating , and the toilets need looking at and cleaning up . All the same I enjoyed our time in there .

Set menu sunday lunch good variety for price good range of drinks to will go back 100%

Amazing pub, neen our local for a while now. Great atmosphere and the staff are brilliant! Always up for a chat, and very welcoming! Huge thanks to Luke & the team.

Great pub, been our local for a while, all the staff are great! Thanks to Luke and all the team! Fabulous atmosphere!

No issues, All staff were polite friendly and helpful will visit again

The regular pub I frequent. Great staff (Luke and the whole team do a great job) welcoming atmosphere, many great memories in this place! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a friendly, high quality pub.

Very friendly staff, Dog Friendly, treats and water provided. Meals served hot and nicely presented. Great Atmosphere, good location with outdoor areas.

I visit The Star Hotel each week to perform at its very enjoyable Open-Mic Night. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The service is always great, and the atmosphere is relaxed.

We had a lovely meal and the service was excellent

Incredible atmosphere with an open mic night full of variety. Friendly bar staff, Nico and Baz always make an effort to greet us. Food is delicious with prompt service. Thoroughly recommended

Nico & Baz are the tits! Fantastic atmosphere, service is 5* and food is top notch!! I don't often give a 5* review, but when I do, it's always true!

Staff are lovely and the food is delicious. One of our favourite local places to go to celebrate family events.

Same old same old weak gold beers

Lovely Food, Friendly staff ,lovely atmosphere

No steak or pies available, which didn't affect my party but still not great on a Monday night. Food we had was tasty and the staff attentive and friendly. Bit quiet but think that was the day of the week.

Tasty food, friendly welcoming staff.

Great evening out with friends ,very good quality food,very reasonably priced. We normally go into Lichfield to met our friends, but last twice,felt very much rushing you to finish and go as they want the table. It was such a pleasure to sit in nice surroundings and friendly staff and just enjoy the food. Thanks to all the staff

Lovely meal with friends and the staff are lovely

Massive thanks to Nico, Baz and Jasmine for making our table of 8 feel so stand out. A birthday celebration for a friend with food, drinks and service all aligning to create the 'event' we wanted. The Sea Bass was stunning and nothing but empty plates all round. The team effort in such a busy environment ensured we didn't feel remotely rushed or left wanting. Try the HPA by the pint and the Merlot by the bottle! Well worth the visit...thanks for a lovely evening!

Great food & service tonight thanks. Lovely staff. We always look forward to a chilled out Friday night at The Star

Service from Colin was excellent. Love a Madri.

Had a great time at the Star tonight. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, the food is tasty and nicely cooked and the atmosphere was chilled. We’ll be back soon

Wonderful food and lovely staff.

Open mic nights on Tuesdays are great. Lovely atmosphere, fab service and food always good!

Great open mic and great drinks and great service!

Best open mike in Staffordshire, fantastic music, lovely warm atmosphere

Always a friendly atmosphere, lovely staff, great service

family lunch for 4 good quality food at a decent price Veges werenty particularly good but there waere decent vegetaian choices

Nice friendly atmosphere n staff. Nice food n service.

The Star Hotel impresses with its superb food and outstanding staff. Enjoy delicious dishes and attentive service in a welcoming atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot for a memorable pub experience!

The Star could be a lovely pub. Its staff are wonderful, the locals are nice, the drinks are good. But the interior is absolutely awful, torn seats, horrid carpets, leaking ceilings, and toilets. Ember Inns should be ashamed, letting a pub get in this state. It's not fit for purpose. Yet, with some support, it could be brilliant. The staff aren't to blame. They do the best with what they have. Investment is desperately needed...are board members listening?

lovely good quality well cooked food

Beautiful home cooked food! 10/10 Lovely staff & efficient service Everything faultless Clean premises & clean toilets Makes a nice change to go somewhere that still takes pride in all areas Thank you 👍👍👍

The menu has thankfully improved from the terrible spring menu. Everyone found something the liked and the food was delicious. Most certainly recommend.

Came for dinner tonight and everything was delicious! Especially the tandoori skewer! Barry was great, so attentive and friendly. We will be returning!

Great food and even better beer! The selection of ales on offer is brilliant. Barry was brilliant and made our visit - what an asset to the team!

!st time visiting for food here. Good atmosphere friendly staff and wonderful tasty food. Thanks to Molly who was a great help ! Will definitely be back!

Good open mic every Tuesday evening

We didn't eat this time but we had a friendly welcome and a very layed back atmoshere, a nice couple of pints hassle free in the beer garden. I ate here a while back and the food was great.

Popped in today for a lunchtime drink after a couple of days away. The welcome from Luke and Rachael was professional, warm and genuine. All the team at the Star are welcoming and go above and beyond other pubs in the group. The Sunday dinners look good too😋

I went for Sunday lunch with my distinguished gentlemen (the mandem). The food was simply wonderful. The gammon had a delightfully salty note that lingered on the tongue, which left me reeling for more. The stuffing wrapped in bacon was a novel ideal which I very much enjoyed. Abi and Luke were very hospitable, and had top banter. 10/10 would go back.

Good food and drink ,excellent and efficient Staff service,nice relaxed atmosphere. Would highly recommended this Inn

After my last experience I was a little reluctant to dine there again but we decided to give it another try and I am happy to say we all absolutely loved the meal and the atmosphere, the staff are really nice and welcoming I would definitely recommend the star and will go again very soon

Wonderful country pub, friendly staff, amazing food and a great place to visit, definitely visiting again, had 3 really nice courses and each was perfect

Couldn't say anything about the food or service as we only went in for a drink pleasant

Great food and service, clean and pleasant environment. Not a lot wrong at all. Will definatly come back again.

We like the new menu and the food we had was great, staff always very friendly. It would be nice to see the interior redecorated. Go on and invest it will pay off .

The star is a great pub. Warm and friendly. Great food for a M&B pub. New staff means better service. A lot more professional. Took my family for Sunday lunch and was not disappointed. Will definitely be back. Plus dogs are welcome in the bar.

Not very many in Camera discount available

We visited The Star last night for a nice drink in the beer garden whilst the sun was still shining. After having a few beers and seeing other people ordering food which looked pretty good we decided to have a meal . Me and my partner both decided on a mixed grill and we were not disappointed. The food arrived quickly and everything was cooked to perfection. We will definitely be going back for more.The service was brilliant and can't be faulted. Well done guys 👍🏻

I went here for my step dad's birthday the staff are very kind and polite the food is very good for the price nice size portions and great service. I have no complaints about the star its worth a visit qnd then your hooked.

Very nice meal, in pleasant surrounding.

Lovely food and lovely staff xx always enjoy my night out xx

Popped in for lunch today and it was a new menu since my last visit. There was lots of variety and it was hard to choose. I went for the open steak sandwich and Cajun fries and it was absolutely delicious.

Just had a meal off the new menue it was lovely, would highly recommend, staff where excellent ,especially Molly and Colin

Fantastic new menu, service from Mollly & Colin second to none, nothing was too much trouble

The new menu is amazing! I will be back to try other things! Recommend the tandoori skewer! Great service from Mollie and Colin as always!

Waited 45 mins and complained before food arrived. It was lukewarm. Drinks order was wrong came with ice in spite of twice being told we did not want.

The place needs painting, cleaning and repairing. Walls are scratched, in one place the ceiling is dirty, one of the bench seats has the leather cover torn apart, radiators are dirty. It was lovely when they had the renovation years back, but they need to take care of a lot of things now. Food is ok. Lovely staff though.

so good love it here sm will be going again soon!!

Had an amazing service from baz, livvy and wotto. We have had amazing food, so compliments to the chef, great atmosphere and great vibes in the bar! A massive Big up to the star staff!!!

Top service by Colin very knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely visit again

Visited the Star hotel today and the food and service was excellent. Colin was welcoming and friendly n will visit again soon.

Nice atmosphere, quick service and lovely hot food. Colin was fantastic serving us, ensuring we had everything we needed and nothing was too much trouble for him.

Came in Friday afternoon for a meal served by Colin who was excellent polite and remembered to ask about allergies which many forget to do. Food was very nice service was top notch.

Come here often and everytime is better than the last. Staff are great and drink too. Fair prices too with the rise of cost of living. Helps my friends with allergens. Before i came here, I read the reviews and seen some poor ones, but all I can say is don't knock it til you try it. 10/10 will go again!

Lovely Beer, excellent food, Team and regular clientele all welcoming and friendly. Big outside area for drinks in the sun.

Place is really nice, enjoyed my time here. Liv was also amazing imo

Great service . Great choice of Ales what more could you want. Foods Great too. I will certainly be visiting again.

Staff are spot on, especially jazz. The whole team are polite and welcoming and the service here is pretty quick. Overall lovely place to come have some food and drink !

Ordered a BLT Ciabatta and got sent a baguette. Raised and questioned the waitress about this as it wasn't what I had ordered and all I got back was that's what you get. Really disappointed with the answer and the way the staff member dealt with this. I'm guessing the staff member just thought I was being difficult but there's a big difference between these 2 types as I wouldn't have ordered this dish. Will not be going back

Was busy when we arrived , but still managed to find a table for four adults..food really nice and very polite service..added bonus of having Stowford Press cider on draught..😎

Well cooked steak, cooked to perfection. My friend really enjoyed the curry and sides too. As it was Curry night it was a really good deal too.

Although though pub was quite busy service was fast molly and jazz in particular were working hard but didn’t let them stop how welcoming they were and how polite they were.

Brilliant as always! The food is always spot on and the team are so attentive and nothing is too much trouble!!!!!!!!!!!

Came in for a few drinks with friends this weekend, amazing service and atmosphere! Food was very yummy! Would definitely recommend!

Came for food yesterday at 6pm, pub was quite busy but still plenty of seating free. Asked barmaid if we could order food to which she replied "don't know, can you?"and then laughed. We asked for vegan burger but said they didn't have any. Then we asked for fish and chips to be told they didn't have any and then said they did have. We asked for a beef lasagne only to be told they didn't have any of that either. All these things were on the menu and at 6pm, i would have thought should still be available. There was tables reserved so i hope they didn't want any of the above food as they were going to be very disappointed. We left to find food elsewhere as we had a vegetarian with us and there was nothing else on the menu for her

Came in for Sunday dinner with some friends and family, the team were so kind and friendly made us feel so wanted and the Sunday beef dinner was perfect best Sunday dinner I’ve had out in a long time

I recommend the star inn to my stepdad (who was very impressed with the pub)..him and I both came here for food and a catch up..our starters and mains were great very tasty and hot and served with a smile..we will be coming back soon..thanks for having us and giving us a relaxing atmosphere 💕.

Always great food at sensible prices with a nice atmosphere. Go often.

Visited The Star for breakfast prior to a day at Uttoxeter Races. The food was excellent and served very promptly considering there were 28 of us eating at the same time. Great value for money also and all served by a very friendly chef / waiter. Thoroughly recommend.

Group of 25 of us booked up for breakfast/brunch prior to a day at the races. Luke (manager) and his staff were brilliant in making sure all food was prepared and served on time for us to catch our coach. Breakfasts themselves were all hot, well cooked and excellent value - just what was needed!

Great staff and service was very quick. Food was Ok and the dessert tasty. Shame about all the tweaking to the roast lunches because we're no longer happy with them, filling up a plate with barely roasted diced up veggies and using cheaper cuts of beef which isn't even properly stated on the menu whilst at the same time upping the price doesn't look great but I've no doubt others would disagree. We tried different meals this time but it just wasn't the same as our monthly Sunday lunch treat so we've agreed not to come back. Maybe a quick midweek lunch every now and then but certainly not a prebook have to do it monthly Sunday lunch.

Friendly Helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble.

Beautiful food, staff go above and beyond, will be returning!
