The Woolpack in Stafford

Just had my husbands Birthday celebrations with all the family. The food was lovely and the service was very good.my husband had the rib and chicken combo,he said it was very good. Thanks again see you soon

Only just found this gem of a pub/restaurant after we kept saying for 2 years 'we must try the Woolpack' every time we passed the sign on the A51 on the way to Stone. What a fantastic place, Food Superb, Staff friendly and welcoming overall location 'Stunning', Great place, definitely worth a visit...you'll keep coming back. Love it Ian and Carol Durrant

Was hoping to be able to leave a good review as haven’t tried the food for some time. Unfortunately the hunters chicken tasted of nothing, I’m sorry to say. Didn’t want to complain as I was out in company, but their meals were flavourless too they told me later. Such a nice pub to go to if you would like a drink though.

A fantastic venue for my birthday meal. Just a short walk up from the canal and well worth it. Food was fabulous and service was great. Atmosphere was very good and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended if you are in the area and in need of a great meal.

Went for a birthday meal with family service good meals enjoyed by everyone

Superb service from start to finish staff, owners and overall feel was 10/10 from entrance. Food was fast service and cooked to high standard, portions was amazing and great meal. Food was Hot and cooked to perfection. Beer was great fresh crisp taste. I would highly recommend this pub. I will definitely be going back here at my next availability.

Not the worst not the best for the price.Generally the meal was ok. Pacifically ask the manager I would like my steak blue but charred on top. Despite the chefs best efforts it came back pink in the middle(great) but grey on top with the odd griddle mark. When shown how a Pittsburg steak rare looks on google, I get every excuse from the they cook it differently, from we don’t have our griddle this hot and just walked off brilliant! 😂 It’s not that hard just cook the dam thing like a couple of drunks cook a sausage at a bbq. Burnt on top pink in the middle 🥴. Had a laugh very strange !

Food wasn't as good as usual. Food was luke warm . Service was slow.

Ode to the Woolpack in Weston. In the heart of the village, where laughter abounds, Stands the Woolpack pub where joy knows few bounds, With a warmth that embraces with comforting cheer, Good food on the table, at the bar a great beer! The clinking of glasses, a melody sweet, A gathering place where friends come to meet, With hearty dishes that nourish the soul, Every bite can be savoured from each tasty bowl. The jokes, the stories the memories made, In this cosy haven all your worries will fade, Great service that greets you with smiles all around, In the Woolpack Inn true happiness found. So here's to the moments that make life a delight, In the warm friendly Woolpack each day feels just right, Raise a glass to the laughter, the love and the beer, To this fine English pub we all hold so dear. By AI & Anon. Dedicated to Debbie, Martin and all the team.

Great pub, eaten here many times with family and also with a large group for a work Christmas meal. Food and service have always been excellent and the pub is in a great location with the green outside!

Great rural pub. We booked for Valentines day and were not disappointed. Great service, great food and a wonderful time as always

Been there many times and it is very good every time, lovely food, beer and great events. Most recently went for a bingo night and had pie and chips, with 2 vegetarians coming they were very happy with all the veggie options over the menu and the broad range of drinks and offers.

Bad, bad, bad. Retrain the manager and retrain the staff so that food arrives as stated and shown in the menu or, me (the customer) is given an early opportunity to change their meal without finding missing items when delivered to the table. It's basically a trust issue and the manager was aggressive and dismissal of me. I even received a ban from the place. I had not imbibed alcohol I might add.

Lovely pub, friendly, chatty and helpful staff and fantastic home cooked style food and great portions sizes.

Lovely country pub offering excellent meals. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Large or small tables, choice of restaurant area or pub for eating. Dogs welcome too. Good prices

An absolute gem of a pub , lovely food and such friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Came for Christmas Eve meal with family. Lovely venue and atmosphere, friendly staff and great, sensible priced food. Definitely recommend.

Went to the Woolpack because I like the pies, or thought I did. The steak and ale pie was delivered and it looked pretty good, a bit light on the peas but otherwise it looked good. The first cut told the story, microwaved. The pastry was hard to cut as is the case with soggy microwaved pies. I spoke to the waitress and she confirmed that they microwave them and then put them in the oven. These ones were obviously not in the oven long enough. She also said that they had changed the pies and some people like the new ones, I definitely don't. Shame really as I did used to like going to the Woolpack for the pies.

We are just home from a fantastic birthday dinner. The Woolpack is such a lovely place, the atmosphere is friendly, the staff are very attentive and welcoming. The food was hot, tasty and a great variety on the menu. We’ve not been for a few years, but will definitely return soon. Highly recommend

Great pub lunch. Very friendly greeting by the staff on first entering the pub. The building itself is full of character, really beautiful. Nice choice of real ales, all very well kept. The menu had great choice and arrived quickly. Every one of our group commented on how nice it was. Thank you so much for looking after us.

Food was great, the atmosphere was welcoming and the staff were incredibly friendly, especially Maddie who catered well to our allergies

Great atmosphere and incredible service from Maddie as always.

We come here every week when we can...my mum and I honor a tadition of our family over the years dining here. We have always been treated as we are part of this place and welcomed. It means alot, the dog is fussed, and we feel the most comfortable. The food is always beautiful, the desserts put us to sleep (much to the staffs pleasure lol). Just a joy to come here. Thank you

This place is a beautiful counry pub. Fantastic staff and owners. Beautiful food and lovely relaxing atmosphere. Definitely recommend. Give it a go you won't be disappointed.

very nice people and very fast service

Visited for a club Christmas meal, left very disappointed. Manager was moaning we had all come in our own cars and the car park was full, that was before we had got in there. Garlic mushrooms were hard and the main was bland, hard roasties and turkey was very dry. Desert was the best part of the meal, banoffee pie. Staff were attentive until they had served the mains and then they disappeared. I think they were busy organising their own meals as they were sat down eating when we left. If this is how they treat their customers then you can understand why they're all closing. If you've got a party of 13, surely the food and service should be impeccable🤔. If not, those 13 people go away and mention it to at least 3 or 4 more people and then your reputation has been ruined. 🙄 Beautiful pub though, just needs improvements.

Called in on the off chance for lunch. Staff were very welcoming and service was excellent. We both ordered the surf and turf, steak was spot on for how we wanted it cooked and everything else on the plate was cooked perfectly. I would certainly recommend dining here and we will definitely be back.

A very accommodating and friendly village pub. We have a nervous dog that doesn't like other dogs and the landlady and staff were exceptionally helpful in finding us a table that was suitable. We also revisited later in the week toeat and the food was very good. We are due to visit again in a few days as we're passing by on the canal again.

Great historical pub, authentic low ceilings, hand carved beams, and a large outdoor heated space.

We have visited The Woolpack for many years just for a drink and everything has been lovely- our recent lunch experience was awful- the room felt very cold- the food was dreadful-garlic mushrooms overcooked- I had scampi- they were like little bullets- so overcooked and tasted of nothing- what appeared to be oven chips were overcooked-pastry on the steak pie was soggy! at least the food was hot! we didn't want the mither of sending it back- on reflection we should have- I don't like leaving bad reviews- it was bad & it really spoiled it for us.

We did a breakfast with Santa here. It’s a really nice pub. It has that traditional village pub feeling. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. There is plenty of parking to the side and it has a lovely outside space.

Had lunch here today, food was nice but really have to praise the staff. Definitely had some class training that needs recognition. Thank you

Came here for a group gathering to celebrate the year 🍻 Excellent service and quality food in a lovely pub tucked away in a nice village! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Went for the first time with a friend for a drink and dinner. It was very good. Staff is very attentive food, excellent and competitively priced. They will be seeing me again.

We attended the woolpack for Christmas meal and comedy night. The service and atmosphere is always lovely but this night was off the charts amazing!. As always the quality of the food was 10 out of 10 and the service was perfect. The comedian "our Trace" was brilliant! Much laughter had by all! Looking forward to our next visit! We'll done team Woolpack!

Really lovely pub on a village green. We had reserved a table for four with a dog, but when we got there, the table we had been given in the bar was under the dart board right in the corner and next to the toilets. We asked if there was another table, and they moved us into the lounge. Unfortunately, the dog had to go in the car as there were no dogs allowed in that area, which was a downside to the evening. I'm a light-sensitive epileptic and the room they put us in had flashing Christmas lights. I mentioned it, and immediately they changed them to static, which was absolutely brilliant of them. The food was good, two mega mixed grills, a chicken tikka and kebab meat, and flat bread, although my meat and flatbread were a little cold. It was a really cold night, so it might have been that the heat on the meat and bread didn't stay for long as the plate was warm. Overall it was a good evening, just a shame that the table in the bar was a bit rubbish and that our dog couldn't come in. I've put a picture of her with this post to show how upset she was. 🤣 The photo wasn't taken st the time.

Always a very warm and friendly welcome and lovely food prepared by Ben and the kitchen team.

Went for the first time on Saturday for some dinner. The food was nice and very reasonably priced and all the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back again 👍

Stopped off here to catch up with friends and had a great lunch, a very village style pub, loads of space inside, and plenty more outside if the weather permits. Lovely pub with a great atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Had dinner with my daughter. The staff were very pleasant. The food was very good. Generous portions.. Nice, calm atmosphere.

The same group as the Chetwyn Arms Brocton but somehow so much better.

The beer was fresh and the food both good value for money and of a good standard for the type of pub. Great atmosphere and service. As a party of four we have eaten at The Woolpack previously and we will be returning. We travelled 30 minutes to get to Weston which is testament to our overall experience.

Not been before 4 a meal,it was busy but all the staff were lovely and we didn't wait long 4 our meals and we all enjoyed thwm ,we deffo b bad ,reasonably priced and dog friendly excellent.

Not long moved to the area and decided to come with family for Sunday lunch it was such a lovely experience the staff were great, the meal was lovely can’t fault it. Thank you .

A fabulous local where Deb and Martin offer a warm welcome to all! Looking forward to seeing you all again soon xxxx

Came to the Woolpack for Sunday lunch today and was served by Archie, who was lovely and very accommodating, definitely recommend a visit!

Today we were served by Courtney who was friendly and professional. My wife had an unusual request to combine some starters to make a main, the staff combined this together to come out as a platter and she was happy they made this accomodation for her. The food was lovely and represented good value for money and arrived in a timely manner. We frequent the Woolpack regularly and will continue to do so. An excellent pub with fantastic owners and staff.

Lovely traditional homemade food with great service 👍

Brilliant pub food and friendly service

Nice pub for a drink. Good atmosphere and friendly staff

We went last night and was really busy, as it was payday. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. I had the mega mixed grill which was spot on and my mom had the steak and ale pie which was also great. Had a really nice time and the staff were really good. We will come more often.

We met with a friend for an evening meal. The pub was quite busy but the staff very very friendly and efficient. We had a mixed grill, rump steak and scampi. All meals were nicely prepared and were tasty. We decided we had room for puddings so ordered a jam sponge and custard and 2 banoffee tarts. All were superb. What really stood out in this pub was the friendliness of the staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We also liked the variety of food offered on the menu at reasonable prices.We will return!

We were a party of 8 and all the meals were delicious and served at the same

Excellent , great chef, food excellent. Great value for money. Staff very friendly and helpful. Thank you. Staff very friendly . The young man who served us today is a credit to his age group very friendly and helpful. Lady at the bar lovely . We didn't see the chef but food excellent.

Lovely cosy pub, greeted by Debbie who took us to our table, very friendly and helpful ☺️ We ordered our food and drinks at the bar and the lovely young girl brought our drinks over to us which is a big help to me as I use a walking stick. Food came within a good time and was all really lovely. Staff are very polite and helpful, I need to mention Archie especially, he is such a polite and lovely young man and made sure we had all we needed, he is a credit to you. A wonderful visit and will most definitely be back xx

It was a really enjoyable experience great pint and good food all served with a smile. No complaints at all. I would highly recommend.

Great pub, just wish it was near our home.

Food was very nice and good value for money. Service was excellent and team were friendly. Will definitely visit again.

Food was really nice typical pub grub but done well will defo be back

Lovely owners who made time to chat. Nice pub all round and food was cooked to perfection. A lovely little gem tucked away in a housing estate. Wouldnt have known it was there without google maps. Lovely place.

What a pleasant surprise! Passing by on our narrowboat, we took our dog too and had dinner in the bar. Friendly staff, great food and we had a 30% off voucher - amazing value. We’ll definitely return here!

Were regulars, took a friend for dinner on Bank holiday Monday. Pub quiet hardly any staff on, had a to wait a long time for someone to take booking, when meal arrives no steak knife had to ask for tartar sauce another wait then asked for mustard blank look, had to go and ask. Ordered dessert after 30 mins nothing had to re order then another 20 odd minutes we were actually at bar cancelling dessert when it turned up. Overall our guest was not impressed and neither were we.

Beautiful fish and chips..don't change anything about them...twice I've had them and both times I've REALLY enjoyed them. Service is very friendly and attentive too...thank you 🙂

Food was freshly cooked and well priced. Plenty of drink options. Owners and staff very friendly. Dogs are welcome. Overall a great pub to unwind and relax in.

Pub stop over,friendly and accommodating, great food.

Best meal out we’ve had in ages as a family, excellent service couldn’t do enough for us, would highly recommend and will certainly be eating here again soon.

Arrived at 12 and got a drink and seated straight away. I chose the cowboy burger with fries and it was so delicious! I got my order very quickly and efficiently. Suzie made me feel welcome and relaxed as I was on my own :)

Been before this time was even better! Person standing in for owners was brilliant couldn't do enough, pleasant and friendly food was absolutely delicious, 6 of had different meals all lovely and how we had ordered

Delicious food and friendly staff..x

Just had a late lunch and a pint. Fantastic food, great pint of Marstons Pedigree. All the staff were very warm and friendly and the atmosphere was homely. Clean tidy and a wonderful experience. We will definitely be coming back and we would highly recommend. Congratulations to Martin, Debbie and all the staff. Thank you

Very nice traditional country pub. Went with friends for a birthday celebration. We had a surf n turf, two mixed grills and the vegetarian chilli. Mixed grills were of a good size, not too big. The surf n turf was very good and the veg chilli was also very good. Look forward to going back there.

Had the lunchtime special, it came on a child's plate... the portion was shockingly small for not a small price

Lovely friendly staff. Food Is so tasty with a large selection to choose from. Food is great quality for such a good price.

Ordered steaks with quinoa salad for 3 people. Order took over one hour to arrive and all came without quinoa salad and just a simple lettuce salad. Waitress apologised saying that they had run out of quinoa salad. Nothing offered to replace it. Spoiled the meal and whole experience.

Been here a couple of times always had a lovely meal with great service. 1st visit on a Sunday for lunch, we had 2 beef and 1 chicken, the beef was lovely and melt in the mouth vegetables cooked just right. Chicken was really tender. 😊 Puddings went down well, jam sponge, sticky toffee pudding and a chocolate banoffe tart. Again lovely. We had the pleasure of Courtney being out server today she was lovely very attentive and really helpful, what a little treasure 😊

Food was excellent and definately value for money with very good service (Cheerful and with a smile!!) and as an added Bonus the Marstons Pedigree was awesome, well done all👍👍

Went the 1st time today for Sunday lunch and it was absolutely beautiful food , beautifully presented and so nice and HOT . Loved it. We also had a dessert which was also so yummy. Loved the pub itself and where it is situated is also stunning.

Fantastic Sunday lunch served by friendly staff , could not fault it and the beer garden at back is beautiful. Brigid and Paul 💯💯😄😄

Came as a family of 7, great service from all the girls and lovely food all round, couldn’t fault it, definitely be visiting again!

Friendly staff. Great food & beer. Dog friendly.

On a training course in the area popped in for a drink but ended up having food too which was delicious staff so friendly

Sraff ate so friendly and very attentive, food was really nice, fish was delicious! and my hubby said his pint was on point! Definitely recommend

Visited the Woolpack tonight , as staying in the area. Good choice of menu. Food was lovely ,very tasty. Service was very good. Staff was very warm and friendly

Really good customer service Polite and kind staff Great food Cheap prices Would definitely come here again

Pub I come to often when passing thro' on canal. Haven't eaten today but beer excellent as normal. Very quiet but I think thats due to the local monsoon. 8 people just swam in. Rod's threat "I'll be back".

Excellent food and service in a very chilled atmosphere

Nice people who work there, nice and quiet, and a place to relax.

We like this place. My husband says it does a decent pint of Theakstons. Sat in the beer garden, lovely and clean.

Great food, superbly hosted in a lovely village pub.

Great staff Food excellent Great pub in a lovely village

Lovely friendly staff, warm atmosphere and food amazing, clean plates all round.

We had a family meal for my Nan’s 91st birthday. We all had a lovely time, good food and very child friendly and accommodating pub. Nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic food, ate every bit 😋 Lamb shank, staff said cooked fresh so will take a while...well worth the wait I can tell you 😉 Followed by sticky toffee pudding...homemade...beautiful. Thank you chef !

Fantastic local pub, with a very relaxed atmosphere, and really great food... We especially like the chicken as it's always very tender! 😊

This was my second visit to the Woolpack. I can honestly say that I never had such a warm & friendly welcome in any pub before and on both occasions. We were on our boat & had walked up from the canal, we were made to feel like we were old regulars that had been going in for years, it was lovely. We will now ensure that we call in each time we are on our boat (we are moored at Aston Marina!) I would like to make a suggestion if I may. On the canal, some sort of signage, perhaps at the bridge, would tell boaters that the Woolpack is there and give directions to it. The other pub there, which is very unfriendly must pick up the passing boaters as it is visible from the canal.

Great traditional English pub which was exactly what we were after as we are visiting from overseas and wanted to have the experience. Friendly people that were happy to chat to us, great staff and excellent food. Really enjoyed our visit.

Great place for beer and food we will be going back soon

Stopped in for a quick drink with friends. Very friendly (including dog being welcomed) with quick service. Plenty of parking.

A warm, welcoming, traditional pub that serves a wide range of great food. Staff were friendly and helpful. The pub had a good buzz about it. We will definitely visit again.

Popped in on our way home as its a dog friendly pub. Meals were all great. Service was quick and pub was pretty full at our time of arrival.
