I booked a big table at The Talbot for my birthday last weekend and it was just fantastic. The food was incredible and service was smooth, friendly and professional which was impressive given there were around 20 people in the party. It made my birthday really special and everyone commented on the quality of the food and service.

Just back from a fabulous evening at The Talbot. We had 3 tapas to start, beautiful. For our main I had the monkfish which was incredible and my hubby had steak burger, he said best he had ever had. Charlotte took care of us. She was attentive, knowledgeble & personable. This place will be our 'go to pub' from now on. Thanks to all the team! Highly recommend! ☆☆☆☆☆👏👏👏👏👏

As a frequent visitor to the Talbot, a very disappointing Sunday lunch! Anaemic looking potatoes and parsnips and soggy stuffing with limited veg. All were pretty tasteless with the exception of the gravy but that was served sparingly. All in all and compared to previous meals the Sunday lunch for all my party was disappointing.

The pub is lovely, nice decor and friendly staff on arrival. However, we had to wait a very long time to order and in between courses and for the bill. The food was nice enough but quite pricey for what it was. Our greatest concern was after the meal we moved to the garden area for a few drinks which again is a pleasant area. However, there was a dog loose in the garden which we assume was the 'pub' dog as it had been there for the whole of our visit. On coming back from the toilet my 8 year old was chased by the dog which was barking and running at her. She was absolutely petrified and crying to get away. We managed to get the dog away but she was shaking and so scared. There were several members of staff in the garden and not one of them came to check if she was OK. One of the staff just started playing with the dog causing it to bark and run around more. This totally ruined our visit. The dog should not be loose if it cannot be trusted around kids in a family pub. The fact that at least half a dozen staff sat in the garden saw this happen and not one asked if she was ok was most disappointing. I don't like leaving bad reviews but I also would not like another child to have to be in that position. It was terrifying and we should never have been put in that situation where, for all we knew, the dog could have bitten or hurt her.

Great pub & lovely food. The menu didn't seem as diverse as it used to be, but the quality of the food is excellent. The staff were very good at when to approach & ask for our order. Some of the meals are at the higher price point for pub food. The decor was nice & added to the overall atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Our first visit to the Talbot for lunch. We enjoyed the restaurant setting and food.We chose three small plates and three tapas selections creating our own tapas menu. All the dishes were well prepared and tasty. We will definitely return. The venue is very clean and all staff helpful. Our fifth trip to The Talbot, Saturday lunchtime on 13 May 2024 was even better than the first second, third etc. We love the starter menu with the many Asian twists and now look forward to future menu variations. All washed down with a lovely merlot or two.

I have visited a couple of times to have some drinks and desserts but only today decided to have a meal, although the pub was very busy, we experienced no wait times, food was incredible, we shared a starter and then i had a burger and my partner had the duck. We did find it strange how servers gave fresh cutlery but left us with dirty napkins. I didn’t catch the name of the young girl that was serving us but she was great… I had been ranting to my partner about how nice desserts were since we sat down and so when a different lady cleared our plates and asked if we wanted to see the dessert menu I said yes. We sat and waited for a menu to be brought to us but wasn’t too fussed because we knew it was busy. But after sitting for around 15 minutes while other people were getting menus off the same woman we realised they weren’t coming. We wouldn’t have minded waiting however it was frustrating to watch the tables next to us being checked on and spoken to while we were just sat there. Everything was brilliant but this one thing let it down.

We drove out from Birmingham centre for a nice Sunday lunch. Plenty of parking opposite although full when we left with lots of walkers parking up, heading for a walk rather than into the pub. There is a pay and display but parking free for the pub and their machine wasn't working so we didn't need to leave a registration. The bar area is bustling with a few tables which permit dogs and the side and rear is two main dining rooms. By the time we left it was packed with families and quite noisy. We had King prawn and tomato soup starters, the tomato soup was particularly good. Roast pork with extra crackling which was lovely and crisp, delicious. Two slices of meat, a nice Yorkie, fresh vegetables and all served hot. OH had roast chicken which was moist and he struggled to finish. The only thing I would improve is the gravy! It tasted like granules or instant. A delicious homemade gravy would have made this a 5 star roast. But overall it was good value for money. We would have liked a dessert but there wasn't time as the table was needed back. It's a nice varied menu, with roasts as well as other options so something for everyone. Friendly service. The tables and seats are a bit tired, stains all over my seat and print on the table but it was clean if somewhat worn. OH said the gents were clean and tidy.

Really lovely meal on a quiet Monday night. Despite being quiet, the standard of the food coming out of the kitchen was first rate. We enjoyed a beautiful meal of slow cooked pork belly for me and a perfectly cooked rib eye steak for my partner. Our waitress was excellent and we didn't have to wait long for our food which was piping hot and clearly freshly cooked and not been standing long. Definitely worth a visit and we'll be returning.

Lovely restaurant! The food was fab but two of our plates had missing elements which we had to ask for and they had forgotten to put them on the plate. The service overall was good but the staff were clearly very busy and therefore neglected some aspects or forgot certain things. This meant a delivery of drinks was slow too. The food once it was all sorted was great. The staff , was they seemed less flustered were fab, and the building was lovely. There is a car park opposite which says you have to validate for parking but you don’t. We went back in to double check. Overall, lovely evening and great pub.

We had tapas, the lamb, the 16oz chateaubriand, sides, cheesecake, and some wine. All very nice. The tapas portions were very small but very nice (Im comparing to other tapas places) we got six tapas between 4 of us. The sides were ok, the truffle Mac wasn't that truffley and the chilli veg just tasted plain. The steak and lamb was out of this world. The service was great. Team were well presented, polite, took time to have a laugh with us, made regular check backs. All in all a lovely time. It's a nice place too but a relaxed environment rather than stuck up.

The Talbot at Belbroughton is a charming establishment, exuding beauty on the inside. The decor sets a delightful atmosphere, creating a welcoming ambiance. The staff, who were very friendly and attentive, certainly added to the overall positive experience. I would note that the service was slightly slow, but it didn't overshadow the rest of the visit. What truly shone was the food – it was of excellent quality, leaving a delightful taste in my mouth. I would certainly return for another visit, hoping to savor their delicious offerings once more. It's a shame to see artificial flowers at the tables; replacing them with real ones would make a big difference and enhance the overall ambiance.

Having seen some good reports about this place, I thought it would be worth a 45 minutes drive to give it a try. I felt rather fortunate that we got a table at short notice on a Saturday night, that said it wasn't close to full during the time we were here. It's a rather impressive dining room, they have done a very good job and obviously spent a lot of money on it. Naturally this has to be recovered and is reflected in the prices. The plain frontage gives no indication of what lies behind. Unusually for a Bangladeshi restaurant you could be forgiven for thinking that it is a micro pub, given the prominence of the bar in the window. We had a table for two in a corner which oddly was in a cold draught, when I mentioned this to our waiter who had poor English, he advised, "yes we have Cobra". The service was pleasant, a little slow and not overly attentive given the number of staff. Poppadoms and dips were very good our shared onion bhaji wasn't the best though. I appreciate that these are precooked and reheated on the night but these were quite 'tough', and the portion was a bit meagre. They made an effort with the salad but there wasn't a lot of that either. There was quite a long wait between our starters and mains. The main courses were OK, the wife enjoyed her balti but my roasted red chilli chicken korai was a bit thin in taste even though it looked great. The sides were OK but we had to opt for boiled rice instead of pilau as I am not a fan of the tri colour version. Overall it was not a bad night but I was expecting to be impressed, especially at their prices but unfortunately it didn't happen. Another night, with a different dishes and I guess it would be a different story.
