The Summerhouse Inn in Shropshire

We were treated to Sunday carvery by our relative visiting from Australia. She commented that it was excellent, as did we... apple crumble to follow 👍

Warm welcome and friendly atmosphere we had a mixture of meals including carvery and deserts all presented well and delivered in a timely fashion we would recommend to friends and family

Found was excellent, new furniture and decor work really well and shows that owners are interested in improving the pub and restaurant. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Good menu and has enough extensive vegan menu alongside some traditional pub fayre and interesting specials.

Great pub, lovely carvery, decent prices, friendly barstaff, real ales, nice beer garden, wil definately be returning

What can I say.... Lovely food, great service, great staff. The new makeover is gorgeous, well impressed !!! Best Carvery....

Excellent food and service as always. Warm welcome, the beer garden and outside space is really good, weather you are popping in for a drink, litebite or main meal. Always good and atmosphere really relaxing. The special board is very good, the staff and chefs hardworking keeping place tidy and clean. Definitely recommend to anyone.

First time , only ones in at 12 noon , and went to our Table No 20 , sat down and thought the table was a bit wobbly , then the LEG came away ,I told the girl and put it back somewhat . Then while we waited for our meals , we killed 3 FLIES at least , [Some still stuck on the wall] they were so much of a problem Swatting continually , and at this point we were so dissapointed to eat out . Having said that the FOOD was really o.k But we had enough and ate up a bit quicker and left . Nice place, Nice Staff, Would probably come again ,but after a FLY COUNT and a stable table !

We love this pub, so friendly, the food is lovely and they welcomed out dog warmly, fetching him water and some treats. Great place to go and not have to leave the doggie at home ❤️

Really lovely country feel to the pub. Staff are really polite and helpful. Food is amazing all home cooked. Compliments to the chef. Would definitely go again. Recommend to everyone to try if tour passing through Dudley.

Visited with friends, my first time coming here - beautiful pub, beautiful food and great staff! Can’t wait to come again.

I have ate here a few times in the last month, but ordered something different this time, Going for the burger with chips and garlic bread. I really enjoyed the burger and would happily order this again. Staff are very friendly and attentive, we brought our dog in this time and Karen especially was very accommodating and fussed our dog, especially considering we had lost his mom the day before so we were out with him so he didn’t feel depressed. We will return to the summerhouse as we have been doing.

The food was really good as was the service from Danielle. Would deffinatly recommend and come back again. The brooklyn pilsner was lovely

It’s such a diamond in the rough. The staff are all very pleasant and friendly. The food is out of the world. Never had a carvery like it. It was impeccable.

We booked the round table for 7 people, which was just perfect. The pub atmosphere was just right, not too loud to chat. Our meals arrived on time and were all delicious, thank you. My only criticism is that the kitchen closed at 8pm. Our plates were cleared at 7.45 but we weren’t offered the pudding menu, by the time we asked at the bar it was 8.05 so we missed out. We asked a member of staff if we could still get puddings but she was adamant we couldn’t. Her only apology was made as she turned and walked away. Disappointed to end a lovely evening like this.

Visited on Thursday evening, 3rd July. Was welcomed by the team, special shout out to Danielle. We ordered our food and got told there was a little wait which we were totally fine with. The food came out quicker than expected and all to a very high standard and quality. We always have an enjoyable experience too. Even have Old Rosie on draft :)

Ist visit since lockdown and probably the last. Pub was very cold everyone still got coats on. Ordered a mixed grill which was awful,steak was like leather and pork chop pink,i did complain to waiters but no apology of management. Very disappointed 😔

Very busy due to the help out eat out scheme presumably.One waitress covering the whole place plus one bar man.Hand sanitizer as you walked in and screen up at the bar till but no face shields worn by either staff member, one waitress rushing from table to table, taking orders, delivering meals, clearing, all same person mainly for whole room,apart from one time when barman delivered meal to One table and helped clear one table. Queues at bar for drinks, social distance measures on floor but was meant to be a one way system though it failed because of going up to bar! Steak so tough and over cooked we couldn't eat it, asked for medium, no way was it cooked medium!Normally we enjoy meals at the Summerhouse but they were under staffed, can't imagine it was the usual chef\cook, and you wouldn't think there was a pandemic going on as waitress was too close to people, felt rather unsafe to be honest sorry.

The carvery is excelent, meat is varied pork, turkey and gammon. Self service vegetables you can have as much or s little as yhou want. There is a good selection of vegetables and i is very reasonably prices. Cannot recommend highly enough.

honest food at resonable prices with a good atmosphere we enjoyed our foodand i had probably the biggest burgger i have eaten with the oppotuinity to double it up again not that it needs it good luck to anyone who gives it a go

Went today for lunch with my mom and her friend. Never been before so was excited to see what it was like. First impressions it looked lovely and summary from the outside. Walking in it was spacious and clean with lots of tables to choose from. We ordered drinks at the bar and were served quickly by a friendly Batman. On looking at the menu everything is home cooked. (Pics attached). There is lots of choice. There was a specials board with about 8 different meals on and also a summer salad board. We ordered and the food was served quickly and piping hot. The waiters was friendly and made lovely conversation. Portions were HUGE considering how cheap the meals were. All of us found our meals to be super tasty and we were all fullAnd very happy. Ladies toilets are a little dated and it needs a spruce up. Other than that I will def be bringing my friends back here for another meal. There is a big bear garden and ample parking. Thank you.

Always loved this pub, been many times with my Mrs and my late parents. Never had any complaints before. Walked in today to be confronted by a lectern and a sign saying wait here to be seated. It was 12.45 and almost empty. We were told we may be able to squeeze you in but you'll need to be gone by 2 so you'll be watching the clock. Nice welcome and good business sense. A few unreserved tables for regulars may be a good idea. How about I'll just leave and never set foot in the place again. Thanks for the good times over the years, but that's me done.

Visited late on a Monday evening with 11 friends, not a problem. A great welcome from the staff. Good selection of craft draught beers. Food is typical pub grub, wholesome with generous portions, even vegan options. Service was prompt and the food was excellent, the black country pork stack was something to behold. Great value, would highly recommend

We visited on Monday teatime with two dogs and were warmly welcomed and shown to a table by a very well trained barman.The menu was extremely varied and very reasonably priced.The food was speedily produced and very hot.I had the plaice fillet- very tasty and my partner the liver and onions- mashed potato perhaps manufactured, but everything was well cooked.Two criticisms- a lack of atmosphere about the place. It needs to be made a little cosier. A feeling of coldness!Secondly, the carpark badly needs an overhaul. A bit of a mess and unattractive. It looks much as it did in the sixties!We will go back though.

My wife and I went to the Summerhouse for tea the other night. I ordered the Mini Grill which consisted of Lamb Chop, Gammon Steak, 2 Sausages, Black Pudding, Egg, Chips and tomato. This cost £5.95. My wife ordered the Liver which comes with Bacon, 2 Sausages and Chips and this cost £5.85.In fact 2 meals and 2 drinks cost just under £17, the food is tasty, hot, filling and heartwarming. We eat here quite regularly and we've never had a bad meal yet and the staff make you feel welcome and the service is quick.For Good Food at Great Prices you won't go wrong with a visit to the Summerhouse.John E

Special thanks to Margaret for being so helpful today ,making us feel very welcome, lovely carvery, great staff ,will be using again .thank you 👌

As a regular customer of the summerhouse; both with family and friends; I always find the food very good and very reasonable, especially the light bites menu. The staff are friendly and attentive. A warm, relaxed and great pub. Would always recommend.

Food was good had fish and chips I personally don't like frozen chips but other wise good, there is a big room where whichnis good as we had a long table as it was a family meal for 18

Have eaten here on a lunchtime many times. The best place for a mixed grill cooked perfect. Lovely food highly recommend.

Lovely meal , friendly staff quick service . Good choice of food , children and dog friendly. If you ever near go in on a Sunday the carvery is one of the best I have ever had plenty of choice of veg and good serving of meat which is all tender

We have visited The Summerhouse many times, usually for the Sunday carvery. At around £9 per head, it is excellent value. The parsnips are to die for. Just wish they would offer either a discounted 'veg only' option, or a vegetarian alternative. We have visited a few times for an evening weekday meal, and I found the food perfectly acceptable, but the menu a little uninspiring. Staff are always very friendly and most seem to have been there for years, so they must be looked after. They seem very happy in their job. Also dog-friendly, which is always a bonus. Nice place.

All the staff are very helpful nothing is too much trouble, my dad is disabled and all the staff go the extra mile to help with his needs. The food is always good too. Good proper home cooking, well worth a visit.

Atmospere great , food great ,excellent pricing, the service was second to none , we certainly intend to go again.

This a popular pub with early evening diners. The food is good value for money, plentiful and well cooked, if a trifle generous for smaller appetites. They do a good trade both inside the dining room and in the bar. Well worth a visit.

First time back here for several years and I have to say I was disappointed. Our waitress was very friendly and looked after us very well. The barman had no charisma whatsoever except for being patronising. The food was quite good with the exception of one of the steaks which was over cooked and tough. The restaurant itself had no atmosphere which could easily be remedied by changing the lighting and adding a bit of background music. We won’t be going back there until someone gives us a positive report.

It was my moms 86 birthday and I wanted to take her somewhere where dogs were allowed inside. Service was very good , bar staff attentive but slow only one serving at the bar, but served with a smile and talkative. Food very basic pub grub, if you like oven chips and basic pub meals at a reasonable price then it would suit you.

Never had a bad meal, been there loads. Carvery is great. Cant fault th place. Staff always friendly and good with kids.

Went with friends The two ladies ordered Salmon, it was very dry and the boiled potatoes were not boiled enough.A very poor meal inedible.I had the 10oz rump which was ok ,and another had Fish and Chips which was ok.They have removed the salad bar which was very good ,and put up the price of the Saturday special. The worst part was the attitude of the owner who, when my wife told him of the poor Salmon meal just collected the plates and said nothing to us completely ignored us..Needless to say we have crossed this place off for meals out.

Came out for a family meal and it was going really well. We all had starters apart from on and my poor granddad eats very slow. Everyone finished apart from him and a lady came over and started clearing everything away which was very unprofessional. Then before I knew it, they started bringing out the main courses while my granddad was still eating his starter!! They even put his main course next to his starter which he was still eating!! My mom then said something as she should and asked why have they done this, for then the waiter to say "we had to get the food out." Not impressed and it was very bad timing and lack of communication. Food was ok, basic pub grub.

visited the summerhouse with family for my husbands 50th birthday had a great night could not fault any of the food and we all had different choice, it was presented nice and tasted really good the staff were lovely, it was very good value for money and decent size portions.

have went on average twice a month. for a couple of years now. sad to see the salad bar gone now, was a main drawing point, but not any more, tips please on new place,

Beautiful Exterior-Drab Interior Food was very average and uninspiring and the manager was rude and impatient, having no care to explain the ales on pump

Visited the Summerhouse today for Dinner.I ordered Tandoori chicken with rice,peas,my wife ordered scampi & chips with mushy peas.We waited about 15 minutes,in the mean time had the free salad from the salad bar.our meals arrived and we got stuck in,the meals where Fantastic one of the best pub meals we have ever had.Will definatlly go there again.

We stopped and met friends here for a drink. The place is decorated well and there is a nice feel to the place. The food menu looked good but we didn't have chance to try it this time.

He estado aquí muchas veces y la comida en la mayoría de las ocasiones muy buena y la relación calidad-precio. Sin embargo, en nuestra última visita (4) mi cerveza (wainwrights definitivamente, no fue a la derecha). ! Teníamos sólo llegamos y nos sentamos. Volví al bar y dijeron que el dueño de la cerveza no era justo, él era totalmente indiferente y se negó a cambio diciendo que hemos estado vendiendo todo el día! ! ! Yo reordenados otra pinta (bancos), y luego pedimos nuestra comida.

Un grupo grande de nosotros fuimos a la casa para un asador. Tenía 4 carnes, carne de cerdo, pavo, cerdo y. La carne estaba muy bien y había una buena variedad de verduras.

He comido aquí varias veces con amigos que viven en la zona y fuimos allí de nuevo, después de haber oído varios informes de cambios. Aún así para comer aquí, toda la comida recién hecha, vale la pena esperando.

Encantadora, la comida estupenda, el bar de ensaladas raciones es la mejor que he visto, muy fresca y constantemente abastecido. Un lugar muy relajado cómodo

Super ambiente vibrante, con una comida para que coincidan con el ajetreo del lugar! Increíble cena £25 por 2 personas, incluyendo filetes y una botella de vino de calidad! Relación calidad-precio excelente!

Aparecimos en la Oportunidad y estamos contentos de haberlo hecho.

Habíamos reservado una mesa en la casa para nuestros amigos por su aniversario de bodas de diamante. Había 12 de nosotros en el partido. La mesa estaba puesta en la habitación principal. Había ido allí en la tarde y llevado algunos globos y decoración para la mesa. Todo estaba listo cuando llegamos.

Excellent food as always.Has had a refitLooks really lovely inside nowThe staff are all nice and friendly

Frequent last minute visits and the food is always good. We normally do not make a booking and the staff always find a slot. Good substantial food at very reasonable prices. For a couple of pensioners it is not worth going to the butchers for a DIY. Well done to the staff for providing reasonably priced 'home cooked' food.

My partner's curry was just about okay, but my chicken pie was horrible. Just a small portion of chicken in white sauce, heated up in a ramekin with a stale, cold piece of pastry plonked on top. Really stale, rancid, inedible. No one came to ask us if everything was alright, no one came to clear the plates, so we finished our beers and left. Decent beer, but dreadful food. Given the half painted décor and the dirty windows, I don't think the owners care all that much.

Went for a carvery bank holiday Sunday , the meal was quite good apart from the vegetables they were hard to I couldn't get my fork through the carrots and the cabbage was hard too, not everyone likes undercooked veg, the staff were pleasant, and I would go again

Visited a few times over the last few months mainly over a weekend lunch time food always good and good value. Staff always have a chat and are friendly. Parking no problem. The menu is worth a try with some special nights during the week pie nights for example. Worth a visit good for children to eat as well.

We went to the Summerhouse on Monday 11th April (a party of 4 of us). We only was seated for 5/10 minutes then our food arrived. I ordered my steak well done, it came out almost rare, I sent it back, they re-done it but it still came out rare. I then changed my meal. One of our party had the mixed grill. The lamb chop was not cooked, the blood was coming out of it. The guy behnind the bar, never said anything or apologised. We use this pub on a regular basis - we will not be returning. Service on this occassion was very poor. Majority of the staff are friendly, but it does depend who is on at the time.

Another lovely meal, tried something new off the new menu Sweet and Sour battered chicken, a must to be tried, usual friendly service and plenty of food. Including a well-stocked salad bar.

Sunday lunch carvery, although not all of us had the carvery. We had no complaints in our party, ok its not Michelin star, but its pretty good pub grub with larger than normal portions. Not absolutely cheap, but probably pitched about right for the location and standard.Busy with a nice friendly atmosphere, it appears to a locals drinking pub as well as an eating house, which probably helps with the pub-like atmosphere and better for it.Yes we would go there again.

Had a family lunch in August which was fine, 4 meat choices including a slice of each or a larger portion of 1,2 or3. Great choice of veg but it is a little over cooked. For a tradition lunch particularly for those with a big appetite it is great value. Sweet are cheap again with a good choice. Carvery £8.49, sweets £3-4. Worth 3.5-4 stars.There are evening specials which are very cheap and generous portions, which impacts on the quality, mixed grill was cheap cuts of tough meat. Lots of other choices available. There is also a free Salad Bar.Worth a visit but it is inconsistent.

Visit this pub every Sunday on my way home from my caravanThe service and quality of food is second to none, There is always a friendly smile, a choice of 4 meat and freshly cooked vegetables, it's always busy so it's not only me that rates this pub,

Good value for money but it has gone down a bit of late we visit quite often as we live local but we found it has the quality has gone down .

Went for Sunday lunch on 16th August after having many meals there which we thoroughly enjoyed.We both decided to have the carvery which was a huge disappointment.The meat was fine but the roast potatoes were so hard we could not cut them.There was Plenty of choice in the veg section but all of it was barely warm.We did not arrive 'til two thirty but as we paid exactly the same as people eating earlier we expected the same quality.We will be returning as the quality and value of the meals is very good but we will probably never have a carvery again

For a lazy Sunday carvery this isn't bad. Staff are friendly and on the whole pretty good. Carvery food is ok with a good selection of veg. Prices have gone up a bit since we last visited a few months back though.

Go here now and again, this time was as good as normal. Staff friendly, place was clean, carvery was lovely with plenty left at 5pm on a Sunday and price was good. Will be going again of course.

Nicely cooked meal and well priced, but we didn't get a welcome, and the lighting in the main room was too bright.

We are local to this pub and have eaten there on regular and various occasions. Staff always friendly, great customer service. Food quality is amazing, always hot and good home-made food. Salad bar is always a bonus with a main meal. Not a better carvery in the wolverhampton area!!!! and the best part is that it is as cheap as chips!! (you can also take your dog!)

Went to summerhouse for lunch today 26th March and as usual we were not disappointed.If you like to see words like jus,confit or medley on the menu don't bother going but if you like good basic pub grub ,well cooked,and decent prices then give it a try.The meal could be accompanied with a free salad bar but I declined as my main course was ample.The staff are always friendly and efficient and we only had to wait ten minutes for our food.All in a very pleasant experience.

Whilst visiting friends in the area, we took them out for a meal, they had eaten at the Summer House before, they had been impressed and so were we. Lovely atmosphere, great treatment, food all freshly cooked, nice warm plates, good salad bar though be careful, you probably don't need it with the quantities of your main meal choice, all of ours were hot, tasty, good quality food, however to be total glutons, we also found room for their delicious sundaes, don't miss out on these treats! Wish we could visit here more often but hope to on our future visits to our friends. Four main meals cost just under £40 and four sweets £11, great stuff.

Located between Kingswood and Albrighton, lies this well known, family pub restaurant.True to it's name, it boasts a light and airy patio feel which draws you into a lounge area decorated to a high standard. Unusually, it has a seperate section for diners instead of the all-in-one bar/lounge/restaurant type. This purpose made area takes away a lot of the noise from the rest of the pub.Variety of meal options included salmon, mixed grills, lamb moussaka, steak and vegetarian dishes. The plates were not only massive, but also full, no skimping on food here. Main meals included as much as you can eat salad bar in the price.Dessert lovers had a range of cakes, gateaux and cheesecake, besides this there was a wide selection of ice-cream. Our waitress was Beth who served the order within 15 minutes. The drinks were served quickly by the landlord who was polite and attentative.As a rough guide: 4 main meals with salad, 4 desserts, 6 alcoholic drinks, 2 non alcoholicdrinks came to roughly £76.There are cheaper pub/restaurants around, this establishment just happened to excel at service and atmosphere.
