Can't rate the food as we didn't stay to eat. We are new to Alrewas and wanted to have lunch. We were told cash only for food, cards were accepted for drinks. Never heard of this before. We went to one of the other pubs in the village instead.

Excellent pub 5 minutes from canal if you’re boating. We went for lunch on a Friday and the pie was one of the best ever. Beer was very good with a selection of real ales in top condition. Very friendly staff and customers. It’s nice to be in a pub where non regulars are welcome

Visiting village for first time in many year. Pop in for a pint at lunch time. It was the best pint of draught beer I had had for several years. So many pubs these days seem to forgot or don’t know how to deal with it anymore. Wish I could have had another! Back soon and maybe eat as well. Peter 90 year old x brewery worker.

Popped in here with family and was shouted out over the bar by a rather rude woman. Apparently this is not a family pub you cannot take a 15 year old in after 9:30 which is fine if that's their rules however shouting like a fishwife over the bar is not acceptable, everyone was looking and made us feel really unwelcome. A polite word would have been enough for us to leave. We left and went to a lovely family pub around the corner and was made to feel really welcome so will go there in future.

We had a nice evening, some very gobby locals in, a lot different clientele since the last time i was in there, but we sat as far away from them as was possible, so it didn't spoil the night. Nice pub food with a good choice of menu. 40 odd years since I last visited when I worked in the village, will be back.

Visited Alrewas during a narrow boat holiday. Headed for the Cantonese take-away to find it's closed on Tuesdays. Fell on William IV...what a find. Lovely atmosphere, 70s prog rock playing, great beer and delicious food. Really welcoming pub. Ridiculous prices for the quality of the meals. Best steak (with the trimmings) I've eaten in a long time, all for 13 quid. Special mention for our delightful waitress. Shame we have to move on tomorrow or we'd be back for seconds.

We was down from Yorkshire as our dog was having an operation in the area. We called in on the off chance for a bite to eat after visiting the National Museum Arboretum to kill time. Lovely no thrills, traditional pub with very friendly hosts and locals. Food was spot on. Wife's a faddy eater and she smashed the omelette. The Liver & Onions off the special board was to die for. Will definitely bob in again if we're in the area. Cheers folks 🙏🏼

Popped in on a very quiet Tuesday evening with our very well welcomed greyhound. On reading the prices we expected basic pub food but the reality was a quality generous portion of both (my husband's choice) steak & ale pie and my (special) of braised steak. In both instances the steak was melt in the mouth and served with a good helping of freshly made chips and peas. If we lived locally we would return on a regular basis.The service also was faultless.The only piece of advice for those who tend not to carry cash is that, although drinks can be paid for by card, for meals only cash is accepted , luckily for us though a Co-op cash point was a very short walk away!

I don't write many reviews, but I just want to say what a great pub & friendly staff - we were there for a 25th birthday party on a very busy Saturday night with a superb live band - our children are all now grown up mid 20's but have various special needs. It was really nice to to see how they could just enjoy a good night out and also the friendliness vibe overall of other people in there. Thank you for a good night & it's a really impressive old building too with loads of character.

We have been here so many times and it is excellent every time. We were lucky enough to dine here twice this month as we had relatives here from Devon, followed by friends from New Zealand. Delicious home cooked food and plentiful portions as always. I can personally recommend the whitebait and prawn cocktail starters. If you like game - the pheasant is wonderful, as is the partridge. Fillet steak was amazing, I don’t think anyone could be disappointed whatever dish they choose!

Totally lacked atmosphere and warmth. There was no background music or even chatter. I could hear a couple in the kitchen discussing a member of staff which was poor and then I’m assuming the poor girl was having a review of her work to date in the cafe with customers all around. The coffee was mediocre and the sandwich was lacking in chicken. Really disappointed and wouldn’t return.
