The Star Inn in South Staffordshire

Excellent small public house made to feel welcome by staff & customers, their cobs are delicious

Hi this was for a Sunday lunch by far the best roast I've had in very long time the whole dinner will definitely be going again

Visited here few wks ago meet up with 2 great friends The service was excellent Food amazing proper apple crumble Very friendly staff that actually had a conversation We have decided to make this our meeting up place from now on

Friendly staff and great service. Food was excellent quality. Generous portions and reasonably priced.

Went here for a meal with family it was very busy in the bar area but no one was eating that should of told me something was not too good we had steak and ale pie they should of called it soup and pale pie it was under cooked pastry and inside like a watery soup not a very good experience service was terrible they completely forgot about us looked like they just look after the drinking regulars so don't think we will be going again

This is a favourite in our family. All meals are delicious and well cooked. The staff are always friendly and helpful and it is reasonably priced. They cater for gluten free as well.

Great Sunday lunch and a lovely pint! Would go back in a heart beat

First time here and won’t be the last Monday special was soup starter and roast dinner and can honestly say was the best roast I ve had out in a long time All freshly cooked so don’t expect it to come out in 5 minutes but worth the wait

Feels like we were an annoyance, staff not welcoming, felt uncomfortable being there.

It was the best Sunday roast I've had in a pub. Generous helpings, beef was amazing. Service was excellent will definitely be going back.

Had lunch today. Food was plentiful and lovely. Plenty of gf options, which is great when you're celiac. Staff very friendly. Desserts to die for. Will be back very soon.

It's OK for lunch, friendly staff

Our first visit for Sunday Lunch, all very good I had the beef well done just how I like it, my wife had the lamb and really enjoyed it. Portion was very generous, everythung was well cooked, service was excellent and best of all they have Rattler on draught. We'll definitely be coming back!

Visited The Star for a catch up and food with the girls and honestly the food and service was amazing! Nothing was too much to ask! We definitely will be returning.

Spent a lovely afternoon celebrating Val’s 80th with the choir family. Eating, drinking, singing and generally being our usual merry selves.

We attended for a member of our Choirs special birthday to sing some birthday songs for her. The staff opened up early especially for us and provided a lovely buffet. Both us and the birthday lady enjoyed ourselves enormously.

Celebrated a friends 80th birthday at the Star with a surprise buffet party. We had a wonderful time, food was excellent and staff were friendly and helpful. Thank you from Cheslyn Hay Community Choir.

Frist time we have visited enjoyed our meal service was good staff were friendly and polite will visit again

First time visiting the pub for a family meal . All staff were lovley and Friendly the food was amazing could not fault it . Definitely will be back soon .

Yet again food and staff good. Definitely be returning!!

Good service and food, was a little noisy

Had Sunday roast again today, I had lamb my girlfriend had beef. Both excellent and great friendly service from the waitress. Always friendly service from staff and management. Food and drink always top quality and spotless.

Only slite problem round table 4 need to space tables out to compact

Watched England play ordered the house burger food was amazing atmosphere was brill defo be back again great evening..

Met my friend here for lunch (and a naughty pudding!) Lovely meal and staff, special thanks to Emma x

Staff pleasant. Small car park. Average prices. Food alright.

The food, when I got it, was really lovely. It took an enormously long time to arrive. The food had been pre-ordered and as part of a party. It took 90 minutes for the food to arrive and mine was another 20 minutes later when almost everyone else had finished!! The desserts (also pre-ordered) was another hour later and once again another member of the party was left waiting for 15 minutes as they had been forgotten. The food was nice but service was rubbish.

We booked the Star Inn for a wake after a recommendation from a friend. We got the gold star service for 25 people and the food was excellent, a lovely homemade soup, wide selection and good value for money. Really friendly and empathetic staff. Too much food even after taking some home so make sure you dont eat before. Will be visiting and so will others. Thanks Lisa.

Was very quiet for a Saturday. Staff were excellent.

Nice pub, cheap and cheerful, tasty food, wonderful staff, we'll definitely be back xx

First time visiting this pub and it definitely won't be the last. The staff are absolutely lovely and welcoming and the food was amazing. There is so much on the menu that I want to try, so we will be going back soon to try some more dishes. We had two drinks and two meals for under £20!

Excellent Sunday lunch friendly staff

Going again today for sunday dinner👍

Amazing fresh cooked food and the staff are always very helpful , I would highly recommend this gold mine to everyone. Well done all

Gorgeous meal again, warm welcome and very friendly staff, nothing is too much trouble. Definitely be back

Absolutely amazing place to take the family, the staff are super friendly and attentive. Food was reasonably priced and delicious. Drinks were refreshing and served with a smile, Will definitely be coming back soon and can’t stop recommending to family and friends!

Have what you are served and shut up. That's the attitude of this place. Four of us went here including a disabled person who was abused when leaving by people sitting at the bar all because we complained about one of the meals. There was no cutlery on the table. We had to keep going to the bar to ask for drinks. the service was slow. Three of our meals were OK but the hunters chicken was overcooked and burnt on the outside. We ate the chips off this slop and left the disgusting chicken. We said we are not paying for this meal. The waitress was useless and not very polite. Thet tried to knock 4 quid off because the chips had been eaten. This place is OK if you accept what they bring you and go along with their useless service. If you complain the bar flies at the bar are ready to give you abuse and intimidate you even if you are disabled. We paid the bill but did not pay for the hunters chicken. What a disgusting attitude from the staff and customers to a disabled person in our party.

Went for Sunday lunch with family. Lovely roast dinner and dessert, staff very accommodating and attentive. Highly recommended!

Had a lovely meal. Home cooked. Reasonable pricing. Will definitely return.

Went to the pub for a night out with friends it was a great night friendly staff and a good atmosphere

We had our wake here for my mom. The staff were amazing . Really helpful. The good was delicious. Mom had a lovely send off .I recommend the star highly for any event .

Had Sunday lunch at The Star, Great Wyrley, The atmosphere, staff and food were all excellent. It's the best meal out I've had in the past 2 years. I will definitely visit again very soon.

Nice pub food is always good & the chocolate sundae is the best I’ve had

Booked for Sunday lunch for a large party of people to celebrate a 30th wedding anniversary. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. Made it a lovely celebration for us. The food was delicious. Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again.

Excellent food quality and value.

Very good food, just like a home cooked meal, everyone was happy with the meals, thank you very much. I will definitely be making another visit

Just had Christmas dinner here with my family and the food was amazing!! The staff were friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. 10/10

Fabulous place to eat and very friendly to.

Top place lunch menu is great plenty of choices.pleasant staff even today 22nd Dec very busy thank.you all

Pre booked to be told not enough food, then kitchen closed for puddings… very disappointing Christmas night out, won’t come here again!

Me, my wife, daughter (4) and son (8 months) visited here for the Grinch party. We have to say that the service from the staff was spot on and the gentleman at the bar also switched the football on for me. My daughter had a great time and we made some lovely memories. The drinks and food were also good. I would definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you very much for making us feel very welcome, and putting on a great Grinch PaRtY. See you soon.

Beautiful food, great service 👌 Really nice atmosphere.

Held my Mom's wake here. Food was good & so was the service. Staff were friendly and not overbearing, they did not rush us throughout the meal. Thanks to Emma & her staff, keep up the good work.

Little hidden gem, this place. The food's great and the staff are too. Definitely going back here when I get the chance 🙂

Always welcoming, even though I rarely visit as now live out of the area. They even remember my drink of choice! Superb food too and always busy so book ahead!

Well first time visiting don't usually do pubs. Nice little place. Only thing I didn't like is the staff had to sit in-between the toilets and the smoking room to eat their lunch. When the whole Restaurant was completely empty. It just looked wrong . Apart from that the place is OK 👍

Made very welcome on arrival. Immediately seated. Drinks offered & served quickly. Very pleasant atmosphere. Food excellent & plentiful. Would visit again

We have eaten here many times and would always have reviewed 5 star but sadly this was not the case on our visit Friday we waited 45 minutes for starter and items ordered not available side order missed off the order very long waiting periods between courses Certainly not we have come to expect from this establishment hopefully it was just a one off

We booked the conservatory part of the pub for my wife's 60th Birthday for family and friends and also took advantage of their table decorating service . The room looked fabulous and Emma and the team made us all feel welcome The service of food was excellent amazing portions and very tasty and everyone commented on how good the food was Emma was amazing in making sure everyone had what they needed and felt more like a friend to us than a manager . If you are thinking of holding an event I can't recommend this place more Highley!!! Afterwards they held a games night which was good fun even though I didn't win anything 😂. Overall I would definitely recommend The Star not only for a family gathering but any time you fancy a lovely home cooked meal and a refreshing drink. Once again thank you to all at the Star for an amazing evening and a big thank you to Emma she really is a credit to yourselves!!!

1st visit and had a beautiful Sunday lunch, really busy little gem of a place, all staff really pleasant and accommodating, already booked our next visit well done to all of your team amazing food and hospitality xx see you soon xx

Excellent service and felt valued as a customer 👏

Had to wait a while for our food but it was well worth the wait it was delicious. Staff were very helpful and nice

Table booked for 7pm but arrived by 6.30pm to have a drink first. Shown straight to our table which was reserved ready for us. Drinks received promptly and food ordered. Pleasant and happy to help from the start. Food fine and quite prompt considering it was freshly cooked. Waited for the dessert but was happy at the portion size . Toilets are really clean and fresh. Would consider coming here again.

We were let down by a venue after a funeral so 18 of us went to the star. They were very welcoming.we all had meals. The food and the service was realy good.

Very friendly with good food good drink and great live entertainment

What a disappointing experience we had during a visit for Sunday Lunch to The Star Public House ,GT Wyrley on Sunday 10 Sept 2023, the table was booked for 1 O'clock and we arrived on time. We were taken to our table, our drinks order was taken and was told there would be a delay for our food. We accepted this occurrence and then waited 41 mins for the food to arrive. After finishing our Sunday Lunch we decided to choose sweet but before this happened a waitress came and told us that we had to move from our table and could go to a table in the bar. She explained that we had used our 2 hour Quota for Sunday Lunch. On previously booking this table in person A time restriction was never mentioned. The 41 mins delay was not our fault and we were absolutely disgusted about being asked to move before the completion of our meal, It was a complete embarrassment to us as this booking included relatives who had travelled several miles for the visit. We paid our bill of over £ 80 and without choosing our sweet and coffee's We left never to return

Food was lovely but having a one hour wait is unacceptable, the manager told me our food was not ordered until 15.20, absolutely correct. We booked our table for 15.00. No apology, she was so rude. After eating at the star for quite a number of years we have decided it’s not for us anymore especially after we were told we were being arsey and did we still want our food.

Great friendly pub friendly staff great service great clean pub

Booked here for my mom and dad’s celebration meal!! 25 people and 3 courses! The staff couldn’t do enough for us they were amazing!! Food was amazing and the selection of drinks were brilliant. I can’t praise the staff enough everyone of them where super helpful and we had a lovely time:

Nice friendly pub, car park is a bit of a squeeze, but still worth a visit

We spent 3 days in Cannock as a golfing society and visited the The Star Inn for the 1st time and visited each night and were made most welcome and had a great time As this is an annual event of ours we will certainly recommend a visit and we will be back next August for sure

Nice pub, the front outside area could be better needs tidying up glass on the floor and weeds, could do with some decking, nice pint tho 👍🏻

Had a birthday lunch with my grandchildren here. What a lovely find! Prices very reasonable, pub nicely decorated and clean and the food was really good. I'll be back. Maybe a Sunday lunch next time.

Came here for an afternoon tea with my granddaughter’s as a treat for them .it was fantastic value for money the food was delicious.The staff very attentive with happy smiling faces making you want to return to this establishment. I have visited several times now always made to feel welcome.I would fully recommend to pay a visit. Well done the staff at the star with a lovely assistant manager who helped me out with a query about my booking.

Love this place food is amazing and always get look after by staff especially the lovely Emma and the owners Dawn and Mike are the best.

Came here for Sunday dinner as a family of 9 for the first time. The food was delicious and really quick even though they were fully booked. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and will be returning for future meals.

Had my 50th birthday celebrations here. They decorated the table and chairs beautifully. Service from all the staff from booking to on the day was superb and faultless. Food was delicious. Had a wonderful day celebrating here. Would highly recommend :)

Not been to the Star for some time, but it was really nice, good food to, good service, and friendly staff. Xx

Had a lovely meal out last night for my birthday would recommend

This is an average pub which serves the community well. Good menu, with nothing unexpected. Faggots were lovely, although had to wait quite a while for the food to arrive (and pub wasn't busy). Several drinks were missed off the order. Everyone was pleased with their meals.

Absolutely delicious food and very generous portions.

We came here last Wednesday 7/6/23 as my daughter who is 6 loves the cheese and potato pie, was gutted to find they had took it off the kids menu but the lovely lady requested if they would do a small portion which they was happy to oblige to. Then we returned today again after my daughters request to be told if she was to have a cheese and potato pie we would have to pay for the adult price, which we was happy to do, for it to arrive with numerous pieces of hair in, we complained and a new one was brought out, my daughter at this point had been put off and barely ate any of it, in which we complained and didn't think it was fair to pay for a meal that hadn't been eaten through there mistake, when they tried to deduct it off the bill it took 3 members off staff to attempt to do this, I was then stood by the kitchen waiting for my daughter to use the restrooms and could loudly and clearly hear the chef talking about us the customers and basically stag us off how it was apparently fabrics of clothes and not hair and how we were the rude ones to ask for a refund on that meal, clearly no customer service at all. We are customers that have used this pub for numerous years, but since the change of staff there is no customer care, respect or anything and we will not be retuning, we got an apology of a member of staff who had nothing to do with the situation.

Parking is difficult. However in my first review I omitted to say that the food is good and the staff were marvelous.

Was hoping the quiz was back on but not there yet. Food was great as always and good value for money. Staff lovely.

As ever nothing was too much for the staff, the food was excellent as ever and a great evening was had by all. We have been visiting the Star for a number of years and never been disappointed. Keep up the good work.

Lovely meal, friendly staff always go above and beyond cant fault anything

Good food, and a decent well kept pint of ale.

a perfect funeral reception here with me coming from London and my brother coming from Edinburgh... an extremely welcoming pub for us all... highly recommended ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

First rate service, friendly staff and a good vibe.

Smashing food. Very friendly staff. Will definitely visit again. 😀

Bostin mixed grill definitely go there again.

Cracking pint always and the snap is proper pub food aswell 👍

Wonderful afternoon tea for under a tenner. Very good value for money, assorted sandwiches, pork pie, warm sausage roll, chutney followed by a good selection of cakes , topped off with the usual jam & clotted cream scone! Coffee or tea to wash it all down. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic food and really friendly staff, decent price.

We were greeted by Friendly staff, we didn’t feel rushed which was a bonus. quick hassle free service and finally the food was great. Will definitely come again

The pub looks great and for a pub had a good varied selection of tasty sounding meals. We went for a birthday celebration at 1pm and despite there being several people there having”afternoon tea” which needed no cooking involved we were the only people dining, and it still took over an hour and half for starters to come out, and another hour for mains. We couldn’t have desserts as we hadn’t got time! However food was hot and tasty albeit served by a miserable waitress!

Lovely staff, good atmosphere, tasty main meals but the dessert wasn't the best on my last occasion. Overall, well worth a visit. Update: visited again on 11th March 2023 a few years since my last visit. Didn't eat this time but the staff are just as lovely and the atmosphere is good.

Fantastic meal for a Saturday lunch. The food was amazing and the staff are really friendly, we had a fabulous time! It's great to go somewhere where you can feel relaxed and eat fantastic food.

This is a little gem…great pub food excellent presentation good prices and great service from pleasant staff nothing was to much trouble drink’s reasonably priced…we will definitely return

Lovely home cooked food, great portion, freshly cooked
