Just had the best value for money breakfast ever here today. Turned away from Beckett’s farm, as had our 2 dogs with us; passed here a few mins up the road by accident. We were welcomed and well looked after by Gareth and could sit and eat in the bar with our dogs. Gareth went above and beyond in looking after us. Food was buffet style breakfast with a great choice, as well as add ons you don’t normally see, like fried bread and waffles. Will definitely be back 😀👏👍❤️

A wonder snug little pub, Adam & Gareth made us feel welcome! I would definitely recommend this amazing venue to family and friends as food is reasonable, and a nice variety drinks. Food was great we thoroughly enjoyed our carvery I had the beef cook to perfection and my partner had turkey mouth watering:)

I dont know why we even bothered to go inside as the outside of the pub looks scruffy , the grass needs a good cut , the outside furniture at front of entrance is grubby and old looking , the front of pub is just a mess. We went bank holiday Monday , I called before to ask if there were any table available for a party of 4 , I also asked if fish and chips was on the menu and was told yes . When we arrived the pub was dead (alarm bells should have rang then , as what pub is empty on B/H Monday) We ordered 3 carveries and a fish n chips , we were told no fish n chips !! I'd literally rang 10 minutes before ! The carvery was awful , tge beef was tough and full of fat , turkey was nice , vegetables were tasteless, could do with seasoning , next to the cranberry sauce was a bottle of bleach and dirty cloth , whilst eating our meal we all commented how filthy the windows looked and it seemed they had not been cleaned in months overall the pub looks unloved , could do with a good clean and makeover, can not believe the brewery have allowed it to get in such a state , certainly will not be returning there.

We decided to visit here at Friday lunchtime for a carvery and a drink. We have eaten here numerous times over the years but this was the first time back for a few months. We ordered two standard carveries and a pint and a half of shandy and it came to £22. That’s supposed to get you three slices of meat and then you help yourself to veg. Basically what we ended up being given was some small shavings of meat and wasn’t even proper slices. I have never seen anything so tight in my life, I should have asked the server if she wanted a Bics razor to carve the meat with!!! I will say to the manager this is a false economy and if you are selling a carvery with three slices of meat then at least give people what they have paid for, for the actual small amount extra it will cost you will keep your returning guests. We won’t be back and judging by how quiet it was in there, we aren’t the only ones. Toby midweek prices are only 50p per meal more and the difference in terms of quality is massive. Oh and to add insult to injury the soap dispenser in the loo was watered down that much it was unusable. Tight.

Carvery collection - DONT BOTHER. Shocking service. Ordered a carvery for collection which by definition should mean you show up at the collection time and ‘collect’ your order. Not be told to join the carvery queue, wait 15 minutes only to be given a flimsy plastic container with the last fatty bits of beef left from a joint and point blank refusal to change it for a fresh joint, the container to be covered by a flimsy bit of cling film and handed to you with a container to go and get your own gravy - that’s it. No bag to transport your ‘collection’, food isn’t even in a proper leak/ spill proof container of some sort, oh and the roast potatoes that were paid for were missing. Terrible place. Shocking service. You can get far better for your money elsewhere

Arrived at white swan for a carvery at 6.30pm,order then went straight to carvery bar.The meat was all dried up and disgusting,turkey looked like chipboard,chief carved meat and put it on my plate,I immediately said "your not going to serve that to me" and went to turn my meat over to show how dry it was and the chief threw his LARGE carving knife down and said" in a really bad angry temper"i have to throw the entire whole Turkey away as you have contaminated it" I have been in catering myself fo over 30yrs and never heard such rubbish,I only touched the Turkey on my plate not the whole Turkey,he then said he wasn't allowed to take a thin slice of meat off if it was dry and baked--i was fuming.We proceeded to vegetables,,,the few that was left of them was hard dry and baked solid--peas were that dry they was nearly white.Sat down really annoyed😡 hubby who is 74 put first mouthful in -roast potatoe it was that hard he started to choke and was sick,rushed to toilet where he continued to be sick all down his trousers,came back to table where I was complaining to manager and hubby was sick in front of him.While this was all going on the chief took all the carvery away and replenished it with all fresh food for a couple of new diners.We never ate our meals and manager eventually refunded.I have lived around the corner of this pub for 40yrs and will NEVER GO IN IT AGAIN

Cheap and cheerful, Stonehouse breakfast buffet cannot be beaten. The take away carvery is wonderful alternative to fish and chips if you want a night in front of the TV. Friendly staff....and you don't have to dress up to eat, so spur of the moment after shopping is a good choice! Comfy and relaxed atmosphere.

Pensamos que probaríamos este restaurante ya que hemos estado en unos pocos en la misma cadena.Encontramos una mesa que estaba sucia y luego miramos alrededor y la mayoría de ellos necesitaban ser limpiados.Cuando subimos al Carvery, se habían quedado sin los pudines de Yorkshire que la gente esperaba. El pavo parecía completamente seco. El chef que estaba tallando era muy agradable, pero parecía que era la primera vez que había tallado. La selección de verduras era realmente mala. Si no estaba vacío, todo estaba seco.Cuando fui a buscar un poco de salsa de menta, toda la unidad estaba cubierta de todo tipo.Me dio mucha pena la camarera que estaba sola el sábado por la tarde.Lamento decir que no volveremos.

We visited for breakfast last Sunday but, when we went up to the buffet counter, very little food was ready and a long queue built up behind us waiting for more items to be brought out. It resulted in barely cooked sausages and bacon, along with a few leftover over cooked sausages, and dried out fried bread and hash browns. With a bit of care and planning it could have been so much better - in the end it was just okay and unlikely to result in a return visit. In future we will probably visit the nearby Becketts Farm instead.

Estoy realmente desconcertado por tantos comentarios negativos sobre El cisne blanco. Definitivamente no fue mi experiencia. . ¡No puedo callarme por el lugar! Estaba trabajando en el área, pasaba por allí y decidí ir a tomar una pinta si soy sincero. Noté carne asada bien cocida, pavo, jamón, papas asadas, budines de Yorkshire, cebollas glaseadas balsámicas, excelentes verduras. Para ser honesto, casi pensaba que solo haría comida en casa, pero luego pensé en preguntar cuánto era. Realmente me sorprendió que una placa estándar tuviera alrededor de 6 y cambiara. . Sin embargo, no es el precio lo que me obliga a escribir una buena reseña. . Todavía estoy un poco incrédulo de que puedas obtener este tipo de comida de calidad. .

Me resultó difícil de creer teniendo en cuenta que la última reserva de mesa en línea para la cena fue a las 21:30. Dije que solo queremos hamburguesas, lo que luego dijeron que harían. Cuando terminaron nuestras hamburguesas, el chef le preguntó al gerente qué mesa (ella usaba ropa diferente a la de todos los demás, así que supongo que ella era la gerente), quien nos señaló y dijo "sus hamburguesas están listas" como si tuviéramos que levantarnos y levantarnos. ellos.

No había puré de papa o papa asada, solo unas pocas patatas fritas, casi nada de coliflor y sin relleno. La carne que quedaba se estaba acabando cuando se le preguntó sobre más carnes, no estará lista hasta después de las 3. 00. Muy pobre y pub estaba, no demasiado ocupado.

Visited last week around mid-day as we were in the area. Haven't been here in a long time, not since it was taken over as Stonehouse Pizza and Carvery, purely because i'm not often in the Wythall area. As a group we were originally heading to the Packhorse but decided to come here as we thought it'd be quieter. Definitely was, there were only a few people at tables so it was lovely and quiet. We worried with it being so quiet that the place must have gone downhill, but we were pleasantly proven wrong.

Disappointed, now I know why the place looked empty for a Friday night. They only had Gammon on the carvery deck the vegetables were dry except for the chesse and cauliflower there was a pool of water at the bottom. I was mesmerized with the cremated onions / mushrooms ? I had to ask what it was. The gravy was so thick that it sat on top of my dry mash like a topping of Angel delight. My yorkshire flicked off my plate when I tried to cut it. You really need to train your chefs,improve your food. The salad and burgers looks amazing maybe i should have tried that. The staff were friendly and polite we did complain and got a voucher but even then when they brought out the puddings the custard was cold. Such a shame, I use to enjoy comming here.

So arrived on a normal week day evening at 6pm which i would assume is well within their busy period expecting to fing the normal range of meats available only to be told we only have Gammon and Turkey available, so not off to a great start but decided to stay as hungry. I simply dont understand how a professional eating establishment cant have its main menu items available its not rocket science.

Looks such a lovely place from the outside and very inviting but sadly the inside is in need of a desperate refurb. It could be amazing as it’s a lovely size and a great location. On entering, the atmosphere was flat and did not have the ‘buzz’ you would expect (where you want to stay a while). Our table of 4 all had odd chairs, old and marked. Plates from previous diners were left sitting on a number of tables which is off-putting and the place was just very quiet. One staff member seemed in quite a mood whilst clearing a table and slamming cutlery down nearby. The menu is great and so are the prices. We had the carvery, which was fine. The place just seemed a little sad overall.

so this is my local pub... unfortunately this place has gone down hill because the food is not always up to standard. HOWEVER, the staff are amazing because they made me giggle, especially a young chap called George with his hilarious jokes and banter, it made the visit all worth while. He should be manager because he knows what the place is all about. want a good pint? go to George!!!

Habiendo visitado regularmente por el asador y disfrutando de nuestras comidas allí, decidimos probar el desayuno. El desayuno era un completo desastre! El tocino era plegar por la mitad y cocidas en un lado y poco hecha en el otro lado. Las salchichas eran también preparado por un lado y poco hecha en el otro lado. Sólo había una selección de huevos fritos, revueltos o escalfados opciones no, los huevos fritos estaban duras como piedras. La selección de la comida era limitada y lo que había allí era poco atractiva, los utensilios eran tan caliente que no puedes recogerlos, nos defraudó!

Visited on a Sunday lunchtime, the place wasn’t particularly busy so we walked up to the bar to be met by a staff member just saying ‘yes?’. No, ‘can I help you, hi, good afternoon etc.’ Other staff were very offhand when taking our drinks and food order, and no explanation about what happens when the meal is ready. However, the meals were tasty, and were just as shown in the pictures. Unfortunately the toilets weren’t very nice. In the ladies loos the toilet seats were broken on two toilets out of the four, and my husband said the men’s toilets smelt really unpleasant. It’s a real shame because this restaurant could be so much better. Hopefully just a glitch.

We haven’t visited here for a few years but after hearing good reports, we decided to go for a meal. We were very impressed by the warm, cosy feel about the place and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. We chose the carvery and there was a wide choice of meats and vegetables. There were also pizzas on offer with a huge choice of toppings. The staff worked very hard and nothing was too much trouble. I didn’t get the waitresses name but the barmaid was Lyn and they both worked well. The plates were cleared away after we had finished and we were very happy with the service. From Monday to Saturday there is also the option of a small carvery plate.

came here for a quick meal , only one person serving and service was poor , she was talking to the customers with her back to them , not being able to understand what she was saying I ordered a coffee , she said she would bring it over half hour later still waiting , had to ask for it , also the young girl waitressing was wearing a dirty looking jacket over her uniform with a pouch of tobacco hanging out of her pocket , very off putting while serving food , the manager was also on shift , how can you allow your staff to walk around like this under your nose ?

Pasó por aquí como más cercana a la zona de caravanas nos alojábamos en Chapel Lane. Buscando un lugar bastante decente y no muy concurrido en 6. 45 un miércoles. No me di cuenta que el carácter restringido del menú, pizzas, hamburguesas o una lista indicando que incluía pescado asados y patatas fritas, pastel de carne con cerveza y piña o huevos. Pedimos entrantes de alas de pollo y nos dieron un localizador y dijo que recogerá las comidas cuando se disparó. El chef estaba diciendo la barman que hamburguesas estaban fuera porque no tenían bollos! Bien, el localizador, así que recoge disparó los entrantes que había sido recién preparado y muy buena relación calidad-precio de £3. 95 7 alas de pollo. Nos preguntaron si queríamos que nuestro plato principal al mismo tiempo decidimos comer primero los entrantes, me pareció sonaba un poco raro, pero cuando el localizador de nuevo nos fuimos debidamente notificadas en el mostrador. El sobresaliente con piña era en realidad un par de rodajas finas fuera un sobresaliente conjunto, el pastel de carne con cerveza pueden haber sido bastante agradable sobre las 4 de la tarde pero estaba mostrando signos de cansancio y las costras negras por las esquinas. Las verduras eran mediocres y cálido excepto las patatas fritas, que en realidad eran frías, bar de ensaladas era mejor. El único punto positivo, debajo de la piel gruesa de cebolla la salsa era muy sabroso. Este era barato en 5 libras. 95 Un plato la misma comida es de más de 8 libras en el fin de semana! Buena variedad de bebidas con una extraña opción de añadir una propina para el servicio en la factura, cuando en realidad no hay servicio. Nos alojaremos en el mismo sitio caravana de nuevo, pero me temo que será cenar en otro sitio.

Todays date is the 19th of july 2017 i have just returned from this place after arriving there at 7pm. we went there to take my parents for their birthday meals. we stood at the bar, not acknowledge in any way, then were approached with hello. we sat down and chose our meals, returned to the bar to place the order when we were told sorry no fish, sorry only one piece of chicken. after changing our orders to what they had we ;eft the bar went to get our food. again staff walk past and were were left unacknowledged in any way, no wont keep you a moment or staff will be out soon... we were served some minutes later and sat our to eat. Most of the food was ok but veg very dry and roast potatoes quite grey black and hard. after a short break we then looked at the menu for puddings. we all chose from 'pudding £1.50 with any meal' menu. one of us returned to the bar to place the order when we were told, sorry you didnt order at the time of ordering your meals so puddings are full price ??? what, nobody mentioned this at the time. after a few exchanged words we returned back to the table. a female member of bar staff came over to say whats wrong and we explained, she showed little interest and soon walked away. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING we wont be returning. and.... when i rang last night to see if we needed to book id been told they were quiet around 7 and would get busy around 9pm. my question... what on earth do the 9pm diners get to choose, chips or rock hard mash ??? nothing else left

Ese es el más local que nosotros visitamos este pub en un domingo para un asador sólo para ser muy, muy decepcionados con el nivel de servicio ofrecido era horrible por Suzanne y demetrious. Uno de nosotros esperando nuestro plato y habíamos terminado el postre. No me ofrecieron ninguna disculpa, el personal del bar es muy lento y la profesionalidad y el servicio al cliente es habilidades deberían enviarse en incluido el director. Pensamos que sería una vez fuera así que repetirá el Día de la madre, que esperaba un mejor servicio y de nuevo fue horrible es probablemente peor que nuestra primera visita. Yo recomendaría este hotel a nadie el nivel de servicio es una verguenza.

Been using this place for years and although it's always been hit and miss on the carvery I'd hoped since its recent make over things may have improved!! NO1st visit was ok but still much the same from the carvery with better decor than before.Visited tonight (24/09/16 545pm) and place was slightly busy but when I approached the bar I was 2nd in line to be served but I think I must have been invisible as bar lady served others before me and still more that came through the door also, I asked if she was serving at that end of the bar to which she replied " yes be with you in a moment " and then continued serving someone else who had also came in after me while some other bar staff were busy doing not much at all.Absolutely rubbish service for a usually mediocre pub.Would rather have traveled the few extra miles to the 5 star carvery I also use in Bromsgrove.Not a good example at all.

We have eaten here tonight, although they now do a variety of food we still opted for the carvery.The meat was quite tasty although not much of it and we had the king size, the vegetables were nice and not over cooked. We had to ask for gravy as it was empty and it was replenished straight away.The staff were friendly and happy to help. The only down size, most pubs now do unlimited refills on the fizzy pops, this place has just had a refurb but still dont offer this. Drinks can really add up on your bill so this alone puts us off revisiting, we may as well go to a more expensive chain and save money on the drinks.

OMG...Didn't feel like cooking today and decided to go for a carvery. Having been to this restaurant on several occasions, today was a big disappointment. Why you might ask?? The food was hot which has to be a plus, stuffing was thick and stodgy, very stingy with the meat and had to ask for more...Oliver Twist eat your heart out. Good choice of vegetables...so what was the problem? The gravy serving table was disgusting, with gravy, mustard and mint sauce covering the surface where you rest your plates resulting in the bottom of your plate being covered. No cutlery on the table, looking for staff was like looking for a needle in a hay stack. The ice cream area which is self service had the door which had come off its hinges was shoved inside the cupboard, with serviettes strewn all over the floor. Short of staff would be an understatement which showed in the attitude of staff that were trying to do their best under the circumstances,not a very good experience resulting in us not wanting to go again or recommend to anyone else.

My wife and I visited this place after a long break due to illness. We were so pleased that the standards are still very good. The carvery at lunch time was excellant - the meat was tender and a goodly portion and the vegetables plentiful and appetising. We understand that the place is to be refurbished during June so we look forward to a time of interest as the food provision, we were told, is to be expanded. Would recommend this place for a quiet mid day meal.

We visited on Sunday afternoon, it was very busy and of course there were lots of families, to be expected and as it was busy the majority of the food was fresh, particularly the meat. All round brilliant value for money, 4 Carvery meals and a round of drinks for just over £40. Overall a bit rough and ready some of the alternatives like chicken looked a bit tired but a good way to get a tasty Sunday lunch on a budget. Lemon meringue one of the best I've had!

The carvery is very dry, looks like it has been sat there all day. Always run out of something and never offer a substitute or lower payment. Takes the staff ages to take the dirty plates away once you've finished eating. Wouldn't recommend. Best to travel further for a carvery.

Popped in here,this lunchtime,as its on our way home. Lovely pub inside and outside area looks good too. Hubby had fish and chips and I had the Chip Shop Platter.The portions were big and the fish was delicious,not all batter like some places. We were both full afterwards. This pub is local to us and we have seen staff come and go and a few refubs.This time,they seem to have got it right. Would recommend the food and service to all.

A past favourite pub but disappointed this time. My partner ordered the steak and ale pie and I had the belly pork. When mine came it was literally a slab of pork fat, even the waitress commented that it looked awful. My plate was returned to the kitchen but the replacement was not that good either, this time so overcooked the knife couldn't cut through it, on top of that my partner had finished his meal so we ate separately. We had hoped for an evening out together but the overall standard was very disappointing
