Awful. Pre ordered for 13 people. Table only set up for 12 took over 1 hour for food to Come out which was all ordered days in advance. Only 12 meals arrived.manager blamed mix up on staff in before her. If you see a large party surely you would check how many pre order meals you have down to how many guests in the party??? The managers attitude stunk from the moment we said there was a meal missing. No one came round to see if any of us needed more drinks or even sauces with our meals let aline ask if our meals were OK. Who experience was terrible. Food was very bland and overpriced for what you get.

Beautiful relaxed venue, delicious food, fabulous service, great ambience April 2025 We were celebrating our son and his fiancé’s engagement last weekend and had a family lunch at the Whittington Arms Lichfield on the Sunday before everyone went their separate ways throughout the country and couldn’t have had a better time at this beautiful venue. The ambience was warm and relaxed with a lovely buzz. Carly looked after incredibly well and attentively (even though it was Easter Sunday and busy). We were all made to feel very special by Carly and nothing was too much trouble. We’d pre-ordered but there were quite a few additions and changes which were effortlessly taken care of. She was so friendly and kind and professional and really made the day memorable. Jake and Ethan were also brilliant and efficient. The cake had slipped in our car and broken but chef Gemma must have spent ages fixing it with more freshly made cake and icing and redecorated the whole thing without us even knowing. So kind of her and helped to make the day even more special. We couldn’t be more grateful and just want to say a massive thank you for all the effort and patience and for making our son and fiancé’s weekend memorable. We are definitely going to come back! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was out of this world!

Too many faults to mention but an absolute shambles from start to end. Slow unfriendly service, poor drinks, many items from the menu were unavailable. When meals eventually came after a very long wait, it wasn’t hot and inedible. Definitely not somewhere we will return. Shocking!

My boyfriend and I visited for Sunday lunch after a walk, having chosen this place based on its great reviews. Unfortunately, we left feeling extremely disappointed. While the presentation of the food looked promising at first, the meal itself was a letdown, cold, dry, and clearly microwaved. I couldn’t even finish it, which says a lot, as I’ve had better meals at home. We ended up spending £80, which felt like a waste given the poor quality of the food. Despite having both worked in hospitality and understanding the challenges, especially on weekends, this felt inexcusable, particularly when many other places manage to maintain standards during busy periods. The roast potatoes were mushy, the carrots and parsnips were dry, the beef was overcooked, and the chicken was the driest I’ve ever had. I genuinely felt sick trying to eat it. The table next to us also complained and barely touched their food, which made it clear we weren’t alone in our experience. I want to add that our waitress was lovely and we did leave a tip, as the service itself was not the issue. But unfortunately, the food was unacceptable and completely overshadowed the rest of the visit. We left regretting the entire experience.

Despite pre ordering food for a party of 10 the experience was from start to finish a disaster. One member of the party hadn’t preordered due to intolerances and when she went to order was told they didn’t have what she would like. She chose again and within a couple of minutes was told that this item was unavailable but her first choice was now, surprisingly available. We then waited over 1 hour and 10 minutes for food ( the restaurant was actually not that full) and was then told the Pizza order would be late. Most food was bought to the table, complete with the pizza! One item came but was missing dipping sauce, this was bought over in another 5 minutes. Quality of the food was varied as portion sizes varied between plates even though some choices were identical. Then it came to our desserts! They had also been preordered! We were then told they only had 3 cookies not the 6 we ordered so we had to make alternative choices. One person had to in fact choose 4 times before they had one available. I made a comment about them ‘splitting cookies in half’ and WOW when the now 5 cookie choices arrived we each had 1/4 of a cookie each!!!! Our waitress was amazing though. She was very apologetic and tried everything she could to help. Eventually we were given £70 off a food bill of nearly £200. If it wasn’t for the waitress I think we would have argued for a bigger discount. Not sure WHY we needed to preorder as there was no point of doing .

Four of us came for an anniversary meal. I was the only one who chose a vegetarian dish, I chose the chargrilled linguine, & whilst I appreciate that costs have to be covered & staff paid etc, I was very disappointed to find: one strip of yellow pepper, one strip of red pepper, 3 thin slices of courgette & only a very few pieces of onion. The linguine itself was beautifully cooked in a lovely sauce, but the portion size of the whole dish was very small indeed. For almost £18 I’d say it was very expensive for what was on the plate. Although we’ve been here many times, it makes me hesitate to want to come again. I’d like to say that, as normal, all the staff are lovely, & the ambience within is very pleasant. But please, chefs - can you be a bit more generous & realistic with portion sizes? Thank you.

Ordered off their online Sunday dinner Take-Away. Cost over £50 for the two of us. Pics are incredibly misleading and show side of veg with chicken which I ordered thinking what was pictured would come. Nope, a few veggies! The cauliflower cheese I paid £4.50 for consisted of 3 small pieces of cauliflower. So disappointing. Sent them an email, no response. Would have happily gone again have they somewhat responded and tried to rectify. Waste of money

We came here as my niece is in barracks nearby. It wasn’t that busy but with 2 servers and 1 bar staff the service was slow. We asked to order and were told she needed an iPad and then it seemed to take a while to come back. The food was excellent and portions were good. We ordered another drink to go with our main course and I had to go to the bar to collect this as it was poured but no server was bringing it and we were half way through dinner! The toilets well they were disgusting. They were all blocked and were not checked at all by staff in the time we were there. When I asked to speak to a manager to report this and inquire how often the should be checked she replied every half hour. Well that wasn’t done. When I informed her of them being blocked and not flushing she reported they did know and are having problems. I pointed out that the pub wasn’t busy and so if that is the condition on a Thursday evening I dread to think what they are like on a weekend. If you know there are problems then maybe you should enforce your checks so that customers do not have to be faced with faeces!

We had a dreadful family experience for Mother's Day meal which was booked on 13th Feb 25 for 9 people with a confirmation received. There were 3 mothers in the party & 2 family members had travelled up from London. We rang the pub Saturday evening to make sure all was ok for the next day only to be told the booking had been cancelled, which was absurd & no confirmation of this supposed cancellation received! My daughter rang to speak to who was in charge & asked what they were intending to do, there was absolutely no abuse just wanting a full explanation. The phone was subsequently put down on her. No way to run a business & so unprofessional, needless to say we won’t be utilising this pub again. We rang every pub in the area & as you can imagine being Mother’s Day weekend had no chance of getting in anywhere. This was a washout of a weekend for our family. I’d welcome an explanation from management on their handling of this dreadful situation. If you book for a family of 9 well in advance, surely you can expect to be accommodated, if as you say this was cancelled, where was the confirmation? As stated before we have confirmation of the booking. Can you please confirm why the phone was put down from this very unprofessional staff member. A Claridge

For a venue badged as a "premium country pub" this was anything but premium. Slow service and poor value for money. Dirty burger not worth £21, only worth half that. "Pickles" was one slice of cucumber cut in half with some weird wet non-pickly wet stuff on. Daily special Lemon Sole was dry and only came with potatoes. Had to chase for the salsa which when it came was about 2 teaspoonfuls. Sticky toffee pudding was lukewarm at best and very dry in the middle. Staff never bothered to check if we were happy with our meal - looked like they expected poor feedback tbh. Toilets blocked and not very clean. Very disappointed having been recommended. We do not recommend and will not be back.

Awful experience. Food took along time to come out. Adults roasts came out, no green veg given we had to ask. Children's took ages to come out we had to ask multiple times. Then had to send one of the kids meals back as the sausage was that hard couldn't cut in to it. Then came back with no vegetables. Lots of other people complaining and one group left due to the wait. Food is very expensive for what you get. No draft Pepsi and only one drink available for the kids. Honestly awful experience.

Service was slow initially and subsequent drinks but they were busy, so forgiven, lovely pleasant waiter's. I had a roast dinner beef sirloin, the meat was on top of my Yorkshire which had filled my Yorkshire with blood from the raw meat. They griddled my meat to seal it, but left blood soaked Yorkshire on my plate. Carrot was half a raw carrot partly scrapped - the others in party liked them, except one ended on floor whilst they were trying to cut it 😔. No veg to speak of, not my style of meals unfortunately, funny taste, two of party enjoyed their meals, small portions, one had sea bass but they unusually left meal saying if tasted funny, think it was strong tasting tomotoe sauce?. Deserts - poached pear was a strange desert, didn't even look appetising and both left theirs, my apple tart was just ok, apple pips and apple skin mixed in, ate it all though. Prices were comparable to other higher quality restaurants, and feel it's a bit pricey for what we got, not full when leaving, Presentation, cleanliness, facilities etc were all 5 star. I hadn't been to restaurant for quiet a few years because always too busy and can't remember ever having any complaints from the many times and large parties who always came with us. Sorry I've never complained before but suppose having my Yorkshire like a cup of blood was the problem really.

My wife and I were given a gift voucher for the Whittington Arms, and we visited on Wednesday, 5th February 2025, at 18:00 for an evening meal. Our first impression was a lovely ambience. We were greeted by Callum, who gave us a choice of where to sit, and we chose to sit by a log fire.. 😊 A lovely lady (whose name I can't remember right now, but I'm assuming she was the same lady who was praised many times in previous reviews) came to take our order. My wife ordered the mushrooms for starters, and I opted for the goats cheese. For mains, my wife ordered the rib eye steak, and I the fillet steak. So, 18:10, the order was placed, and 18:20 the starters arrived. They were both absolutely delicious. 18:45, the 'mains' arrived. Both steaks were cooked to perfection. I should add that my wife is from South Africa, and the South Africans know how to cook meat! We asked Callum to pass on our compliments to the chef, as my wife said that those steaks were better than any steak she had cooked! So, our thanks to Merch and Gemma (the two chefs responsible for cooking the steaks).. To Callum and our waitress. All in all, it was an exceptional evening dining experience for us. May I end this review with a quote from Arnold Schwarzenegger.. I'LL BE BACK..

Was hoping for a country pub feel, warm and cosy. But it felt cold and open everywhere (my fault, should have read up on it before we went but we called in on the off chance). Food came out hot and tasted good, although overpriced. Looked at the set menu but the starters weren't exactly "pub grub". Asked for a coke and was brought an overpriced bottle. Again my fault, should have asked for a draught Pepsi (or whatever was on the pump) but most waitresses usually ask the question to you when you order. Unfortunately won't be calling back in again.

It is pleasant inside. We sat in the bar area and ordered at the bar. Quite a long wait before our meals came out. I had sea bass and my friend had fish and chips. Mine was was underwhelming, but not awful. My friend said hers was overcooked however, and was difficult to even cut her fish. Nobody asked if the food was ok, even when collecting the plates. Luckily I had a 50% off voucher. I would have been really disappointed if I'd paid full price.

My family and myself went there for food. It took over an hour to arrive. Most of the food was OK but my daughter and myself had a trio roast dinner. The parsnips were burnt and the chicken was very dry

Excellent Sunday Lunch, the Roast Sirloin of Beef first class. Food served promptly by Carly who was very efficient and pleasant. We finished with the Trio of Mini Desserts and the Chocolate Bomb, both different and delicious. Good atmosphere in the comfortable and well laid out restaurant, with nice log fires burning

staff very pleasant, efficient and attentive drinks as expected food average quality, certain items overcooked and definitely not reflective standard of the prices charged building very tired and tatty, toilets in particular in poor order

Due to negative reviews about service in the past, we hadn't visited for a while, but wow what a change. The service was first class and quick. Carly was excellent, very efficient and friendly, a tribute to your team. The Sunday Lunch exceeded our expectations, one of the best we have had for a while. We both had the Sirloin of Beef, which was plentiful and very tasty. For desserts we had the Trio of Desserts and the Chocolate Bomb, beautifully presented and far better than we had expected and well worth the extra cost. We were impressed with the layout of the restaurant and how cosy it was especially with the log fires burning. All in all a great restaurant and we shall return again.

The food was excellent, would also like a pork or gammon option. The staff were very friendly and supportive. Pam, our waitress/server was very friendly and attentive with a great sense of humour. The ladies toilets were blocked and overflowing t the time of our visit.

First visit for Sunday lunch. Opted for the cheataubriand sharer which was on the specials. It was perfect. Roast potatoes, gravy, Yorkshire puddings and vegetables were all excellent. Service was great. A lovely venue

Lovely place this, beautiful setting and location. Very nice vibe upon walking in and a nice real log fire burning away. First time visiting as I was up that way for the day. Staff asked if we required a drink before even taking our coats off, when we asked for just two minutes that did actually become 15 and there were only 6 other people in the restaurant. When the food came it was very nice, 3 of us had different meals and all enjoyed what we had. We did order a second round of drinks with dessert and they didn’t come and due to time restrictions we had to cancel them drinks which was a shame. Only minor little issues would definitely return given the choice.

When your waitress gets your first drinks order wrong you know things are off to a bad start - but then it got worse! If waiting an hour and a half for our main courses wasn’t bad enough ( due to the order not being sent to the kitchen!) 2 of the four dishes were wrong despite them having been checked twice by different members of staff. Desserts were slow arriving and our coffees were left on the bar so long we collected them ourselves! Needless to say we requested a generous discount which was agreed to but having driven three hours from London for a family get together the whole experience was sadly marred by basic staff incompetence.

Celebratory Meal with my partner, very warm and toasty atmosphere. We didn't have to wait too long for food. Could have done with more vegetarian options, we sat and ate in the bar as it was busy. Very cosy, and busy as its near to christmas. Lovely food, my partner had vegetarian burger, and I had the chicken burger, with chips. Could have been a bigger portion, for both of our meals. The price is a little steep for what we received.

Never again! One of the worst and dirtiest places I've ever stayed in. Staff was nice at the beginning but became rude when I complained about fiew things. There was a broken bed base in the first room so two days after they put me to a different one and finally had a kettle in as they only have 6 of them for all nearly 30 rooms (state of the kettle and room in the pictures)
