The Whitley in Dudley

Great choice of ales. Roaring fire. Free food last Thursday was a bonus.

Nice local pub that has a beer garden. Has a regular quiz night on Wednesdays. Darts board and TV screens with sport showing Does nice cobs and pork pie no meals Clean and looked after nice atmosphere.

Another great Black Country Ales pub. Good beer garden, a must visit.

Friendly staff. Limited food.This is more a traditional pub. Good atmosphere and guest ales change regularly.

I may be getting a little confused

Excellent friendly little pub. The best cobs ever.

Beautiful family pub where you are made to feel so welcome.

Great night quiz great pub friendly owners

Great night quiz great pub friendly owners

Beautiful family pub where you are made to feel so welcome.

A very white people pub your not allowed to swear and can feel a bit intimidating to the minority. no kids allowed after 7pm however very good taps for their lager and pints has cobs and other traditional pub staples. Quite pricey.

Absolutely love the Whitley. Beautiful family pub where you are made to feel so welcome. Alison and Mark are perfect hosts and always greet you with a smile and a listening ear

Lovely beer could have stayed all day.

Awesome pub Friendly staff Great location

Large carpark , Good sized beer garden enclosed as well as one in the car park Under cover seating area with heaters Nice selection of beer Well kept bar and clean Water available for pets and customers Good ciders too and coffee

Just another lovely pub in the area 🙂

Popped in for a drink very welcoming

Lovely pub Food bostin Nice environment

Recently refurbished and it's very nice inside and the garden is pleasant now, the owner/staff are really friendly and welcoming. They have a good selection of proper ales on tap and the prices are reasonable. I will have to visit more regularly now to try all the different ales.

Very clean and inviting pub. Service and staff very professional and friendly, good selection of beer and spirits at good prices. Great outside facility for families and K9 pets.

Nice friendly pub with happy helpful staff Great real ale selection and sports on big screens

Pub is very nice, comfortable and clean, beer seemed a bit expensive.

It’s fair to say my husband & I are incredibly polite & friendly. The welcome we received from the awful landlady was a surprise, why on earth anyone with such a poor attitude & miserable demeanour would be in the pub trade is a mystery. Karen’s diner would be more appropriate.

Just popped in for a drink, staff were great 👍

Great beer! Nice to see a pub so busy...

Typical BCA pub clean spotless good selection of ales

Never eaten here so no stars but the female bartender is lovely. Nice atmosphere. Noticed a TV in the smoking area. Will definitely go again.

Great atmosphere lovely local pub.service very good would recommend to anyone.

Great place to meet friends and family! Very friendly staff and comfortable place to be!

I've never been to this pub before, but I'm glad we did . Family of 6 and grand daughter on Boxing day. Very friendly Atmosphere: There are plenty of ales and beers to choose from pub was full 3 pm on a afternoon. Ended up staying till early evening so many friendly people in there. Landlady was very friendly and chatty .Will definatley be returning soon.

Open, plenty of lighting and clean. Plenty of drinks to choose from. A decent visit.

A great place to go and relax and have a great pint with friends,Friendly atmostphere and Alison and Mark are always ready to help you choose from one of their fine ales.

Always go here just before I go down to halesowen fc to watch a match

I recently went into the Whitley after not visiting for around a year due to feeling very unwelcome due to poor attitude from the landlady and her partner who I deemed to come across very aggressive not just with me but other customers also. It is as though they don’t want to be working behind the bar and don’t want to serve customers. However despite this I thought I would try again and once again was made to feel very unwelcome by the landlady and her partner. This was on Wednesday 6th September. I used to be a regular drinker in the Whitley but after the way myself and many others have been treated, people try to avoid them and don’t want to drink in the pub. Myself and others have noticed a massive turnover in staff over the last 5/6 years since they have been running the pub. Saddest part really is that the bar staff are absolutely great!! But cannot say the same for the landlady and her partner. You can’t have a laugh and you can’t sing. They listen in on your conversations and they then proceed to have a gossip about whatever it is that they have overheard. Feels like having a good time or even trying to just relax is forbidden. You feel like you have to be careful of what you say or do all the time. I went in again tea time on Friday 8th September around 5/6 pm and was greeted by a lovely young girl and lad (didn’t catch their names unfortunately.) But they really are a credit to that pub and they are what keep the customers coming back. They worked great as a team and was polite and attentive to all who came in. The pub is a lovely place to be in when the landlady and her partner are not behind the bar in all honesty. You can actually have a laugh and enjoy yourself and most importantly feel at ease. Note to the landlady and her partner, you really need to work on your people skills and attitude. Especially when running a pub and being front of house.

Lovely pint, sat in there very nice beer garden, pub smells nice & clean. Plenty of ales to choose from

This pub won’t survive under the current landlady, she’s in the wrong job. I won’t return until the brewery comes to its senses and replaces her & her partner. Condescending, rude, abrupt, doesn’t listen, impatient, no concept of why people come to pubs! They come to relax & enjoy themselves not be spoken down to or told to shut up. Thoroughly horrible!!!

Landlady is so rude and speaks to the customers like children. Such a lovely pub and business would be booming if the people who live in the local area were not put off by the landlady Alison. You basically have to sit there and be silent - if you make noise, laugh or heaven forbid curse, you are threatened to be thrown out. I’ve seen grown men being dressed down needlessly. The brewery should take action and all this gem of a pub to thrive

Best pub in Halesowen. The beer is always good. The Black Country Fireside is by far the best beer🍺👍 If they don’t have Fireside try the “pig on the wall”

Popped for a bank holiday drink. Advertised outside there was fresh cobs on. Asked the lady behind bar to be told there was none even though it says everyday, what’s the point? At the bar I then swore, not at the lady but in general conversation and was not loud, to be told in a pub I could not swear. Fair enough but it is a pub environment and day to day it happens. I Apologised and she accepted it however I felt she was rude and didn’t want us in there. Fine by me because she’ll not get my trade again. Scared to fart in the boozer without been told off, no cobs on a bank holiday when advertised, what is the point?

Ok pub,sport on large TV screens,reasonable choice of beers ,twice as many cars in car park as there were people in pub

Excellently kept beers with a good choice of real ales.Bar staff are very friendly giving the pub a homely atmosphere. Will definitely be going again.

Good real ale old fashioned pub. Ale selection is predominantly Black Country ales with some guest ales, new management great pub for a relaxed evening where you can drink and talk without being drowned out by music.

Decent old pub with great selection of ales, plenty of parking at rear

Meet up here every so often when getting rightwards with some friends. Always a great atmosphere and good choice of drinks

Good atmosphere great place to be.

Very comfortable and pleasant atmosphere with excellent and professional hosts.

Part of the Black Country Ales brand. Nicely furnished with real fire and clean throughout. Sport on the tv and radio in the background. I enjoyed a Jennens ale and hard scratchings for £4.85. I wanted to get a card for the ticking off each of the pubs 8n the chain, but was told not available until the new year. Certainly worth visiting

Friendly local pub serving a range of ales - Black Country Ales as core range with guest beers on rotation. Good pub for watching sport

Nice looking. Great for ale drinkers. Lacks atmosphere. Over priced drinks..

Nice pub and they have a car park at the back.

Always a well kept pint and Alison is always so lovely and friendly

First time visited. Good vibes, good seating arrangement and pleasant staff. Yep I'd go again 👌

Amazing beer selection. Needs more cobs in a Saturday afternoon!

Pleasant staff and atmosphere good selection of beers but be warned no swearing allowed at all

Lovely place, friendly staff and a good selection of ales.

What can I say, BCA pub the bar staff so friendly

Top pub, very welcoming with plenty of BCA beers available, 3 sampled on our visit, all in top nick

Comfortable place to have a drink. Pleasant staff.

Great little place!!! Good beer and very friendly staff, including the Gaffer and his missus!!! Lovely beer garden but looks out onto a busy main road! That's the only reason it's not got five stars off me, but that's no-ones fault!!! Definitely go again!!!!!!

The Staff was Awful the Owner barred me because I went mad at her because she turn away my teenage Daughter who was under age of 16 and I never knew children cannot attend this pub after 7pm that's how there treat there new customers.Awful.

Nice little place. Good beers and nice people

Won't be using again been coming in to support local pub after covid, bar staff are thoroughly friendly exceptional people who try to help, but can't say the same for management attitude as surposity we've not been in before but have bank receipts to prove we have

Great Black Country Pub, good beers & doing their best during Covid to keep people safe

Love this pub, friendly, good beer, great cobs, always a warm welcome from Mark and Alison xx

Group of four visited and was greeted by the worse attitude from a waitress I haven’t ever experienced! Was later told it was the landlady!!! Walked passed us twice when she noticed we had no drinks then politely asked her if we could order was met with ‘wait’ last visit

Very friendly hosts. Great service. Thoroughly recommend

Well organised. Always good beer. Not too sure about mango cider.

Well organised and good atmosphere. Smaller range of ales than other black country ale pubs

The staff are very nice and friendly, and the service despite being fairly busy was quick.

Great pub great beer wide choice

Such a wonderful pub. The amosphere is relaxing, the beer is perfect and the cheese and onion cob I ordered made the experience all the better. Haven't been to pub this good in ages. Well worth a visit.

BCA pub, great pub near bus stop. Good ale, nice people.

Mark and Alison are amazing people and have a heart of gold

Love the old pictures around the place and love the smoking shelter with its heaters and big tv

Lovely pub with great atmosphere

Great friendly place with great ales and staff.

Nice atmosphere good beer what more do you need

Nice pub good choice of beers parking a problem

Very nice comfortable pub but not enough variation on the few guest ales they serve

Great Pub, excellent beer and great staff and service.

The redevelopment of this pub is excellent. Beer quality poor though!

Absolutely fine. Clean pleasant place with very friendly staff. Food for the wake was also good.

Cracking pub, everyone very friendly.great atmosphere. Lovely staff. Go past here every day on way to work so glad I finally went in . Will definitely be going back. Great choice of ales and gin. Friendly and welcoming landlord and landlady.

Good atmosphere very friendly staff and management

Good cobs, varied gins and very friendly hosts.

Great, friendly, traditional pub. Lovely ales & cobs. Mark & Alison who run it work very hard & are fab.

Feel like this is very much a 'regulars' pub which is no bad thing in particular, however beer choice was limited for a BCA pub and after an initial warm welcome from the first bartender, felt left in the cold by the rude second who seemed to dislike customers ordering by tap number and then served completely the wrong pint whilst throwing us dirty looks in the meantime. Not sure I'd visit again even though the beer was lovely.

Fantastic little pub good selection of beers nice bar staff

Just an amazing friendly local.

No atmosphere. Unfriendly environment

Good beer , friendly staff , I can watch premier League football there & it is handy for local football club . A top Pub

The landlady needs to keep her political views to herself. I won't be visiting again.

Great pub, real ales and lovely beer garden. Friendly bar staff.

Great venue. Pub quiz first Monday of the month.

Nice friendly pub with decent real ales

Great real ale pub, great staff, great time had by all !

The beer was middle range but good taste beer.

Great selection of well kept Midlands beers.. Pig in the Wall was tip top.. Friendly staff n darts 🎯 team raising money for air ambulance.. A local pub with a heart ♥

The recent renovation of the Whitley has mad this great local even better. Always a friendly atmosphere, great place for a relaxing pint

The 🍺 was of good quality, the price a bit high, which is a bit of a letdown.
