Wheatsheaf in South Staffordshire

Staff brilliant, but food portions have got smaller and not piping hot

We had a very disappointing evening with the family. Despite having prepaid, we waited for 1 hour and 5 minutes before our food arrived. One family member, who is diabetic, expressed concern, but the waitress walked away uninterested. Communication is the biggest failure at this establishment. Although the food was average, we encountered several issues. For instance, one meal came with almost cold, mushy peas, while others had sauces that were haphazardly poured over the top, making them unappealing. The final issue was with a steak meal; there was no attempt to ask how the steak should be cooked, and it was served well-done instead of the medium doneness that was preferred. Safe to say this is one unfriendly restaurant that our family will not be returning to.

The service at The Wheatsheaf is top-notch. The staff are friendly, attentive, and always ready to make recommendations or accommodate special requests. They create a welcoming atmosphere that makes dining there a truly enjoyable experience. Overall, if you're in the area, The Wheatsheaf is definitely worth a visit for a great meal and outstanding service!

Visited recently with friends for a birthday celebration , atmosphere was amazing , felt really cosy with all the Christmas decorations up , food was all hot and tasted delicious will be returning very soon

Excellent service, great atmosphere

Had a 65yrs meal it was lovely. Always love the atmosphere it always lively, and the staff are always friendly. I love the pub, which is my local. I have no complaints. Great.

It was my first visit having 2 for £13.49 could not fault it at all food or the service an excellent meal in fact so good we booked for Sunday 27/10/24 for a roast dinner and I can honestly say it was one of the best pub roast dinners I and my wife have ever had and I don’t say that lightly we shall now make it a regular thing at least once a week and also prices are good I’m so glad we found the Wheatsheaf and gave it a try congratulations to the team there.

Nice pleasant pub, the food was a bit slow coming out, as we only had flatbread meal . It was very nice when it arrived. Will definitely visit again .

Brilliant service and excellent food. Rib of beef is amazing, really good roasties too

We booked on line because it's often very busy in the week and we guessed Saturday evening would be even busier. We've never booked on line before and weren't sure of the process when we arrived. However, the team member who received us was immediately aware of our on line reservation and we had a giggle about our reason for booking - which was "Can't be bothered to cook". As ever the service was outstanding, the staff are so friendly, helpful and welcoming whilst still being professional. Food as ever was great, tasty, hot and well presented. We love The Wheatsheaf, it's exactly what Greene King portray, a local friendly pub at the heart of the community where you feel comfortable popping in to watch the match, have a drink with mates, a family meal or even a date night - which is what we had, and all at a price we can afford. Thank you to the team, you're all brill.

Busy bar , plenty of room though

10 of us eaten here tonight absolutely recommend eating here food plenty all piping hot staff welcoming smiles xx be back soon xx plus one vegetarian x

I have been coming to the pub for alot of years. I have to say that it keeps getting better and better. The food is always amazing and very reasonably priced. The manager and staff are always friendly and happy to help. 100% worth a visit to this amazing local pub/restaurant.

Only a pub but meals are top quality, I would highly recommend, Thursday is B O G o f on all burgers,

Liam was really helpful answered all my questions around allergies without it being any trouble. Food came out sizzling hot! Really good service and nice food. My son said Ash and Liam are GOAT’s

always bring the family to this pub its such a friendly place and never had a problem with the food

Ordered a Sunday lunch, turkey, roast potato, came with what looked liked flattened mash, no roasters and the turkey was processed, dry and salty. Sent it back, they refunded it on my card but never received the refund.

Great pub. Been coming nearly every week for 6 years. Cheap food. Great service and always have any sport that you want on the TV.

What a random brilliant evening! Heard about a event happening at my local.. turned up to a amazing atmosphere hilarious entertainment and top notch BBQ food. Family really enjoyed the day! Full of good food and good laughs. Need another day like this x

Came this evening for a meal, 7 of us in the party, came on the off chance, the manager managers to squeeze us in after some moving around, thank god he did! Food was fantastic service even better such an amazing place to eat out! Well done to Liam and the team really enjoyed it! We will be back in the week!

Dropped in by chance with a few friends, and wow, super friendly staff, food came quickly and cooked to perfection, and also sat by one of the many tv's showing various sports programmes, best part, drink prices are low compared to other places nearby, overall, 5 out of 5 stars across the board, would we go again, you bet, well done to all at the Wheatsheaf in Great Wyrley, especially Oksana on the bar for prompt and happy service.

Family meals sorted! Very good value if you get the, 2 for one. Easy to get a seat . Would go again.

Great staff lovely food the children can play its pet friendly lovely place

We attended this pub for a Sunday dinner. The food arrived quickly and was really tasty. The children’s meals were also really good. They checked to make sure everything was ok and ensure we had everything we needed and the table was cleared promptly before puddings. These were also well presented and tasty.

We Arrived Here And Was Greeted By A Girl Named Laura Who Showed Us Our Tables She Was Very friendly, happy & made us feel welcome during our time there. Fantastic member of staff. The food was amazing, the service was brilliant. Would highly reccomend & will be visiting again.

Thank you, it was lovely food and fantastic service. We will be back xx

Always enjoy the food ----and they now do 'doggie meals'---which the dog loves. The staff are good and l can take my dog with me ---it's a win -win. Beer is good as well 👌

My first time here and you just can't falt the service. Everything was excellent. Just the one falt i went for a vape outside I didn't see the step only 2'' high I nearly fell out. Think it needs to be painted a bright colour. We will be back though. x

Visited The Wheatsheaf today with my friend, quickly shown to a table. Ordered drinks, came quickly. Also placed order for food, food was unbelievably quick to arrive at the table. Absolutely no complaints from entry to exit. Would highly recommend a visit for drinks or food or both.

Food was absolutely amazing as always, great service 10/10 recommended

The food was delicious, great member of staff

Took my Father in law here for Saturday lunch and the food, service and attention was cracking. Well done to all of the staff.

Fantastic staff and excellent food.

Beautiful food. Amazing staff. Food all came out at same time was red hot. We come here once a month and travel 40 mins there 40 mins back, but well worth it.

Brilliant meal hot and tasty. Staff lovely and friendly.hadnt been here for years so glad we did can't believe what we had for the price .no wonder the place was full certainly be back soon. THANKS

Go in every Tuesday staff magic couldn't ask for anything better

16 of us went for lunch, menu choices sent before the day. Staff lovely, food all came out hot and not much wait for any of us. I enjoyed my steak and ale pie with mash and peas, nice pub food 👍🏻 would go again.

I think this place is brilliant for all. But there drinks prices are becoming more like city centre prices. Nearly £6 a pint and then thought I'd have a bottle before I went home peroni was £4.75. Drinks prices are crazy

Food is always on point, An the bevy’s are sweet. Nice food nice beer nice pub nice staff.

We took my elderly mom out for Sunday lunch. The background music was a little loud (especially for mom) but we politely asked if they could turn it down, and they did. Food was good pub grub, with a good selection - a little bit pricey, but not overly so, and that may just be that I'm a bit out of touch with prices and everywhere has had to put prices up just to keep their heads above the rising tide of costs. We found the place friendly and welcoming and would definitely recommend ☺️

Such a good family pub, staff are always friendly & Very helpful.

Friendly service clean and good pub food at a reasonable price. Definitely recommend

Good freshly cooked food, excellent prices and great customer service.

Lovely place staff all very nice and food is lovely and not expensive at all...

Two couples went there last night, we had reserved our table which was ready for us. The menu is amazing so much to chose from. I had the sirloin steak which we succulent and tender with chips, peas and half cooked tomato. Husband had gammon steak with chicken so did one of our friends the other person had steak and ale pie which he said was really lovely. Really enjoyed our meals and will definitely go back again. The staff were very polite and efficient.

Seems like the Wheatsheaf sells alcohol as an afterthought! The mens toilets take your breath away (literally)

Food is always top quality, nicely prepared and presented. Good offers and deals, happy to keep returning!

Staff were accommodating in quickly finding our party of 7 a table, food came quickly too despite how busy it was

Food was delicious, spiced as i like, just perfect

Nice local go-to for birthday and anniversary meals

What can I say.... Food fantastic. Atmosphere fantastic. Staff are amazing. From the moment you walk in its so friendly. From the bar staff to the kitchen and cleaning staff you are made so welcome. We have been a few times now and we are never disappointed with anything. Nothing is too much trouble. The staff work so very hard to make you feel welcome. I follow a strict diet and the girl behind the bar offered me something that wasn't on the menu. Plus she is always happy smiling and patient. Well done to you all. Thank you You are now my favourite pub by far 👌

Came for the halloween breakfast morning, was absolutely amazing! Full English breakfast for £6!! Absolutely delicious!! Staff were amazing, such a great morning for £10! My little boy loved it! From pythons, spiders, snakes, a barn owl from the animal man! Halloween crafts and pumpkin carving! Can't thank you all enough! Please do again next year !!!

Great place with delicious food. Dogs friendly. Not expensive' Monday to Friday 2 plates from list for only 11.99 Value of money

Aw the staff here are just so lovely, everyone who served us was mega friendly. Food didn't take long to come and was really good. Will deffo come back!

Great little gem nr Cannock, The food was great, very enjoyable. Service was excellent and friendly. The atmosphere was okay, quiet due to the time of day (3pm). Like the Tardis inside, very deceiving from outside. Would definitely go again. Thanks to the girls today, they went out of the way to make me & my family feel relaxed.

Very nice and friendly, food excellent recommend to anyone 👌

Nice place to go for family meal

their grilled burger is a must-try! spicy wings are great too.

Lovely meal at a good price. Dad couldn't eat all his and he had a takeaway box to take it home. Will definitely go again.

Ive always had nice food and good service here but today wasnt the best i think they actually forgot us as we had to go and ask where our food was. Food wasnt great either i had the flat bread with steak and asked for it medium rare and it was more well done but not chewy so it was edible husband had burger and again it was ok have had better meals here before

Not the best..... Meat was chewy staff was nice but not attentive

Loved it nice place nice people had a great time

Good food and very helpful staff.
