Was in the area for work and decided to come here for dinner. It was very quiet, but it was a Tuesday at 5:30pm. The food was a pleasant surprise! Even the grilled vine tomatoes and sautéed greens were fantastic.

Fantastic food, best fillet steak I've ever had. They do wagyu for the rich (£69 per person) as well as the usual sirloin, rump, rib eye etc. Fillet was £35 . Lovely location, nice open fire, really relaxing. Great selection of wines. I would definitely recommend it.

" Staffordshire's premier Steakhouse" that doesn't have any steak. They hadn't any fillet left at 2pm on a Sunday. So very disappointed. We went for a birthday treat to be told they sold out of the one thing we went for. Told by the manager Sarah that it is a fresh food restaurant so they can't garunantee everything on the menu would be available. Well poor management I would say. 2pm on a Sunday, think of all the disappointed customer by the end of the day. If it was up to me we would have left and they would have lost our custom. No offer of a discount or an apology but Sarah said we could "splash out" on the £69 Wagu Fillet. I will never return.

The Trooper is a fantastic spot that combines a warm, inviting atmosphere with a diverse menu that caters to all tastes. Their coffee is top-notch, freshly brewed, and perfectly crafted, making it a must-visit for coffee lovers. The food is equally impressive, featuring a range of delicious options from hearty breakfast dishes to satisfying lunch and dinner selections. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience every time. Whether you're looking for a cozy place to work, catch up with friends, or enjoy a meal, The Trooper delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended for anyone seeking quality coffee and a great dining experience!

Booked a table for 8.30. Arrived at 8 for a pre drink. Had to ask about our table at 8.45 and we're told the previous people were just leaving. We finally sat down and ordered at 8.50. Our food finally arrived at 9.45! We were actually just about to leave as it arrived. No apology or explanation given for the delay. Which was a shame as the food was very good. Staff were very friendly but it's not really acceptable to be starting you meal an hour and 15 mins after your booking. We would have had coffee but couldn't be sure how long we would have to wait as it was quite late in the evening by then so unfortunately won't be back.

Service was terrible!!! Long wait between meals when the restaurant wasn’t even busy. Food overpriced for the quality of the food that you get, not very tasty at all two people out of the 8 of us that ate left most of their meal on the plate, we went there for a big birthday and had to call the staff 3 times after the mains to bring through the cake that had been brought by us to the restaurant as something to be brought out as a surprise after the mains. Altogether was not a great experience at all and won’t be returning, which is a pity as it’s a beautiful restaurant and definitely use to be run better as we have been a few times before this.

Been here before and it was lovely. Yesterday went and had seafood tagliatelle and my girlfriend had chicken skewers. My tagliatelle tasted like oil and pasta, not much else flavour wise, and my tagliatelle was soggy and the prawns were not all evenly cooked. My girlfriend’s skewers tasted as if they were sprinkled with oregano and were very dry. Quite sad really, used to like this place. Feel like the kitchen doesn’t actually care about how the food tastes, not much flavour at all. Starters were ok, but I’m guessing the cheese did all the work.

Came last night for my 65th birthday with my family we arrived on time that we booked for 6.30 we didn't get seated till 6.55. We had prebooked our meals and was still waiting for our food at 7.30 most of the food was lovely my daughter had fries with hers as did my grandson and the majority of them tasted terrible I tried one and it left a nasty tangy taste we told the lady who served us she spoke to chef who told us there was nothing wrong with them she just laughed it of in front of us we spent a lot of money in there pub and restaurant and I thought we were treated like we were lying about how they tasted. had a lovely time other than that never had a problem before and we have been several times for special birthdays.

First impressions not good. We were a party of 6 visiting for the first time. When we walked in we all felt awkward. Staff members ignoring us and walking past us. It was the barman who asked us if we were ok and if we had a table booked. He came from behind the bar to speak to the staff. Well done him. Food is excellent but small portions. Starters are expensive but mains reasonably priced. The restaurant area is very loud, not somewhere I would choose to go for a quiet meal but no problem as a big group. I would visit again but my wife wouldnt because of the staff.

The food was great, however we waited an absolute age for it. We had a table booked at 1915 but didn't get sat down until 1950! Then when we did get sat down, it took about 20 minutes for our food and drinks order to be taken, and then over another hour for it to arrive. We only had 2 mains so nothing major. It's a good job the food was nice, but we didn't stay for pudding as we didn't want to be waiting another hour.

Reserved at 7pm on a Saturday night (10/08) for dinner and drinks, food and drinks were ok throughout the duration of dinner service, however at 10.15 - after settling our bill we approached the bar to ask if we could order a last drink, as advised online the restaurant is open until 11pm, we assumed this would be a reasonable request - all members of staff were sat down drinking next to the bar and advised us the bar had closed ‘15 minutes ago’ - our disappointed reaction to this unprofessional response left us feeling uncomfortable and so we left. Whilst waiting for a taxi to leave we heard staff members making comments about us, swearing and laughing as if - as customers - are burdening their drinking/ home time.. within their opening hours. Pretty shambolic, won’t be returning.

When we arrived, our table wasn't ready which was not a problem - we had some drinks. When we were sat at the table we were informed there is a 45 min wait for the mains. If it wasn't for the fact it was Sunday, we would have gone somewhere else but decided to stay. We ordered two steaks: one medium, one medium rare. They both looked medium when they arrived. Not a nice cut of meat - tough like the sole of a shoe. The skin on chips had lots of black bits and eyes (we get the 'skin on' but they should remove nasty bits). We thought we would try a dessert - cheesecake. The cheesecake had more cream than cheese in it and was tasteless. The fruit on top made it edible. The lovely, very polite and apologetic waitress said her supervisor would come to speak to us. Nobody came. She did take the desserts off our bill, but it still wasn't worth the price tbh.

Booked in for an anniversary meal and we couldn't get out of there fast enough.Starter didn't have the advertised ingredients in the meal.Never mind these things happen.Main course and additional sides ordered.Servers were asked where the side order was,then another staff member came over and asked what was missing.So 10 minute wait for the side order while our main meal is sitting on the table.Then we start eating for the beef dripping is congealed and looks like wall paper paste.Servers asking if everything is OK with the meal and you tell them and nothing done.Also the pork in the mixed grill was so salty that it was left.Got the bill and paid it and nobody came over to see what the issue was.Management were informed as we left and we would not go back there.Young staff need training and when they constantly ask if everything is OK and you tell them no,they don't know what to do.Worst meal I've had in many many years

Went today with the family including a toddler. When we where seated almost all the tables where full of young drunk girls who were all screaming and shouting. According to the waitress we had they were all the bottomless lunch customers. Bottomless lunch is 12-4 our table was booked at 5.30. We literally had to shout at the waitress so she could hear our order, My toddler was not happy as it was far too loud. Even though we rang and asked if it was ok to bring a child its not a child froendly place. I won't be returning for this reason. The services was OK however we were rushed like no business 5 mins after we were sat we were asked to order food we hadn't even recieved our drinks! Then had to wait a good 20mins to order pudding as the bottomless lunch drunk girls had smashed glasses causing 4 waitress to clean the area leaving all other customers waiting. Overall wasn't happy with the experience 😕

Stopped here for a quick meal. I was on my own and although they were fully booked the young lady on front of house gave me a table and explained there may be a bit of a wait due to the kitchen being very busy. The wait wasn’t as long as expected approximately 15 minutes. I had a rump steak which was cooked medium rare as ordered and very tender and tasty. Chunky chips could have been slightly hotter and the green veg was just broccoli so would have been nicer to have had a small selection. Overall a good meal and friendly service

Bit of a hit and miss evening. We were a party of three adults and two kids aged 2 and 4. Parking a bit tight and limited but we managed two parking spaces on an early Saturday evening. We arrived and were seated straight away. Staff quickly came for our drinks order and followed not long after for our food order. Kids meals were perfect and delicious according to them and us from the little bits we stole. Big portions. We had two medium ribeye steaks. The medium was lovely but came with the wrong sauce which we didn’t realise until it was too late. The medium rare was cooked medium and mostly very tasty, but in some places it didn’t taste quite right. It also came with the wrong sauce but we noticed because of the first one and staff were able to change it. Not wanting to make a fuss we didn’t ask for the first one to be changed but it did mean it wasn’t quite so enjoyable. The skewers were very tasty and the flat bread that comes with it was great. Some chips were over seasoned and some under but everything was hot. Puddings were lovely but we were a bit surprised that the kids brownie was basically an adults one but cut in half. The adults menu said it was a salted caramel brownie but the kids didn’t. Luckily they didn’t mind but we felt it should be advertised on the menu as exactly what it is as we expected a plain brownie. The place is quite noisy and the bar area gets busy which is annoying when you have to fight to get through to go to the toilet. Would go again.

Perfect if you want to spend 35 minutes waiting for a drink to then watch them attempt to deliver it to another table, after you've enquired where the drink has got to. There were only 7 internal tables with visitors, and the staff seemed to be split between outside seating and inside seating. We were shown to an inside table at 2pm. With the level of service, we only had a main course and didn't get out until 4 pm. The food is very good, the service is the worst I've encountered. Maybe if you visit when it's busy, there might be someone organising the staff of whom there appeared to be many. I shall not be visiting again. There was a nice advertisement for a 'sister' venue, so that's another place I'll never visit.

Cons; Very disorganised service - long waits between orders/service/table clearance etc Very excessive waits for food and drinks. Food expensive for what it was. Overall; Would recommend the trooper but they really need to look at their service delivery and prices.

Rude staff, really bad attitude of one lady called Kirsty who appeared to be in charge of an area. We were spoken to by her very rudely on two occasions, firstly to say we had two hours from our first drink and needed to order our food as we were 20 minutes in. We had only just received our menus that she was meant to bring us when she seated us. She then returned at the end and said we were 45 minutes over which we weren’t (we were about 15 minutes over the two hours from our first drink) but we were waiting for our drinks that had been ordered in our time slot over 25 minutes previous. She refused for our last drinks to be brought out, although we had waited a long time between ordering drinks when our glasses were empty and receiving them. Our main waiter Millie was friendly and helpful. The steak was over cooked, but was changed promptly by our waitress with no issues. No sauces brought out so had to ask for these for a second time. Overall we were happy with our food. My friend did go over and speak to another lady about this situation and about the way we were spoken to, and we did receive our last drinks. At the end we had moved to the bar area to finish our drinks and were basically given our receipt and told they needed the table. The gentleman returned a minute later with the card reader. Again this felt really rude, we paid the bill straight away and were told again they need the table. The gentleman could have offered for us to move to the bar stools which were free but didn’t. I have visited The Trooper numerous times and have never had a complaint or been treated or spoken to in such manner. The attitude of the staff today really ruined a well needed catch up. Would not recommend, many of your staff seem unhappy and it’s not surprising with the attitude of those who appear in charge. Your staff would benefit from some communication skills training.

It was our first time at the trooper and we will definitely return. After being seated my husband noticed a draft coming from the window and we asked to move table. It was not a problem, we were reseated further along the seating bunks and the issue was was resolved. The food was delicious and service was very good. Lunch flowed really well. We weren't rushed and we didn't have to wait ages between courses either. The two young men who served us were very pleasant and knowledgeable. My husband had the speckled hen and said his pint was very good. I was driving so just had pop. We thought the price was good, as the food was not just your everyday pub grub. It was delicious. Very nice menu. We look forward to eating there again.

Service was dire, waiter corked an expensive bottle of wine, waitress dropped dirty cutlery on my partner's dress.....table service was hit and miss...food was good tho, then after an hour we were asked to leave the table because of another booking, the only table available was by the door which was freezing....over all VERY poor in my honest opinion. We won't be returning in a hurry that's for sure.

Visited this place last week and what a horrible place!! Manager is absolutely rude and obnoxious to other staff whom I'm presuming she is supposed to be training for the future job. No absolute need for rudeness! I wasn't overly impressed with the meal the price definitely doesn't outweigh the quality of the food. Drinks are very overpriced. First time visiting as we passed through the village and definitely the last. The owners need to clamp down on this place to see what's going on with future staff as they're rude to trainees so no wonder they constantly advertise for staff. Open your eyes to the place owners!! I'd definitely not recommend the place for food or atmosphere. 😡

Popped in without booking after walking at Cannock Chase, was found a table although it was very busy and had a delicious Sunday roast. The staff couldn't have been more friendly. Have recommended it already to family.

Booked for my husbands birthday however we ended up in a and e and hour and half before our booking, explained this over the phone and they still charged me £30, it may be in the t and c's but that does not make it acceptable/justified in my situation. As a result of this I will never go here again, additionally to this one of the booked seats was for a baby which they still charged £10 for.

Nice pub. Food was great. However, I had a steak medium rare. Was medium. And wasn’t anything special. Other than that, the other food was great. Couldn’t fault the rest. The service for drinks is however appalling. Waited 20 minutes for our first order of drinks. I could have easier spent another £50 on drink orders, but with that wait time I thought why bother. Wasn’t particularly busy either. Shame really. Would have been five stars and could have excused the steak not being amazing. Can’t excuse poor service in an establishment like that.

Food was incredible, best med-rare rump steak I've ever had. But even though it was at about 50% capacity, it felt too loud and could feel a bit overwhelming, making it hard to hear the people sitting just across from you. Friendly service but slow at times.

Booked a table which was waiting for us when we arrived and we received a very warm welcome. When the steaks arrived, they had not been cooked as requested and the waitress took the steaks away, then the chef or manager came out to apologise. We did not have to wait for long for our new steaks to arrive and this time they were perfect. All the staff at the pub are lovely and we will certainly be returning.

Afternoon tea was very disappointing. Sandwiches were dry and in onebsrely any filling at all. Service also poor, waited for tea and coffee around 15-20 minutes. Items not cleared of empty cups, plates even when struggling to find place for additional items. Would not recommend. Shame as venue and interior was lovely.
