William Iv in Lichfield

Best pub grub I've ever had. Steak pie chips peas, gravy was outstanding. Proper homemade, decent portion size. Excellent table staff, and cook. Also the best pint in the village. Well impressed 👏

I just wanted to share how welcoming, friendly and super the service is at The William IV. We’ve eaten here a few times in the last couple of weeks, and I have to say the food is a very good standard. I personally recommend the pie, as it’s homemade and the gravy is delicious. We’ve have also tried the Sunday lunch. I had the local belly pork. It was absolutely delicious, again topped with the most wonderful gravy. This will definitely be a regular food stop for us now. Thank you for providing such great value food. Many thanks Leanne

Lovely welcoming pub with friendly people and comfortable spacious seating.

Great village pub. Friendly staff and a good range of drinks to choose from. We’ll be back very soon to try the food menu

Staff gave the impression they didn't like anyone outside of the village they were standing off ish food menu was limited Overall not impressed

New Landlord and great atmosphere.

New owners the site is warm clean and welcoming food starts from the 18th looking forward to booking in site is really being spruced up

A local pub with nice home cooked food. Both beer and food are extremely good value for money.

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.

Great hosts, great atmosphere and excellent beer. A proper pub!

Really nice pub, good service Lottie is the face of the pub, polite organised and cheerful

Lovely cosy pub with good value home made food.

Good food, lively atmosphere, great people always.

Excellent homemade food, very friendly staff, will be returning!

Wow what a fantastic Pub Beautiful food and atmosphere and friendly landlord and landlady wish it was my local

Great boozza love it deano taxi

Enjoyed it food great, service good too. Will be going again.

Rundown massively from when I last visited.

Pleasant little place with standard pub food. Has the huge advantage of being the only place in Alrewas where you can get food on a Sunday Evening. Marston's.

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

A friendly welcome, great food and the Wainwright is worth the visit by itself! Well worth a visit 👍

Nice meal atmosphere good service. Oillie chips

Very old and dated pub, few people in but lacked atmosphere and smelt awful. First visit and definitely my last. Sorry

Liver and onions with chips and peas 😋, delicious! Great home cooked food.

We’re here for the beer thanks to other reviewers! That said the wine was fine and the service was friendly and efficient, we will definitely call again on our way through next time.

Lovely pub . Good selection of Beers.

Another wonderful experience at alrewas great time at Billys.pete and Laura the Mercia marina massive x

Nice traditional village pub thar serves a good pint of beer. I can't comment on the food as just dropped in for a pint or two.

We had a lovely roast dinner on Sunday. Service was excellent. We moor our boat locally at Fradley Marina. Perfect dog friendly local for when we visit. Thanks guys

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.

A cracking pint.. A proper pub. Friendly landlord and landlady staff, and clientele. Dog friendly.. in fact Geoffrey (the dog) loves it here too.. the landlord brought him some Turkey in a bowl … fantastic! …. Eh-up.. what about me!!! .. Definitely worth a visit. Thankyou ..we’ll definitely be back. Thanks guys

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.

Beautiful pub with hearty home made food, great staff and a warm welcome

Very Long wait for food,but it was good home cooking ,great selection of beers, music suited me but bit of a time warp.

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.

Lovely food and beer in a proper pub! Dog friendly too!

Nice oldy worldy pub in a small village. They do a good pint of San Miguel

Where do I start with this place, the food is absolute delicious almost as delicious as the little brunette behind the bar 😋 top top pub

Excellent beer and food and a great atmosphere. Highly recommended

Good beer Good food really friendly place

Great pub for a beer, landlord feeds ya dog 😊 happy you happy dog. Very lovely company with the locals

The William lV inn was recommended to me and i was not disappointed and visited today with wife and friends at lunch time. Excellent friendly efficient service, great atmosphere, good varied menu at reasonable prices. What more could you ask for. Can't wait to return. Thanks to all the staff.

Always clean and friendly staff and 3 yagerbombs for 8 quid was a bargain

Me and the malamutes love this pub ..friendly and dog friendly..

Good proper village pub,friendly staff and good beer

Lovely bar staff, friendly locals, good atmosphere.

Nice place ,nice people very good food and plenty of it ,at a good price .our motorcycle club is hoping to make this a regular meet up place in the summer😊😊

Great dog friendly local pub. Meals are reasonably priced I had Steak pie which was very tasty although the pastry was soft and did not come with home made chips as you can see.

Very welcoming pup, visited one week ago with ancient football friends. Excellent range of beers including marstons pedigree and bank's best bitter. Mainly used by locals with good friendly staff. Very traditional village pub.

Lovely food - great friendly staff

We were passing through on our narrowboat and had been recommended this place by Shobnall marina. What a find!!! We were not disappointed. Food fabulous! Try the light bites! Fabulous portion of food the homemade steak and ale pie was to die for!!! Beer well kept and a reasonable price! Thank you for an enjoyable evening !!

Brilliant service, dog friendly, great beer and one of the best steak pies I've had in years

An extremely friendly place to eat and drink. The food is served efficiently and always hot and plentiful. Lovely village pub.

Food was not as nice, asked for floater coffee staff had never heard of it and didn't know how to make it.

Food is very good. As is the beer.

Friendly staff, good food, lovely atmosphere

As we are moving into the village decided to have a Sunday lunch here Wow superb ,roast was great and staff was excellent, will be our number one pub To have meals and a drink In the future

Good range of real ales from the Marstons stable.

Reasonably priced but good pub food. Very friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere. Recommended.

Lovely friendly pub, delicious food, who could ask for more

Not the selection of real also I expected somehow but a friendly atmosphere.

Chose the King William for a meal while in Alrewas on our narrowboat, based on Google reviews. I was not disappointed, the beef and ale pie was excellent, absolutely packed with beef. Reasonable prices brilliant down to earth menu. Beer was very good too. Will definitely return when next in Alrewas.

Lovely place, lovely staff. Will be there soon.

Great old school cosy pub. Food is traditional but we love it, proper old fashioned pub grub and the staff are always very friendly.

1st class hostelry. 5star hosts.

Best home cooked grub around nice welcoming atmosphere all in all very hard to beat

Friendly efficient, helpful. A nice pub and great pie!

Proper local pub with friendly staff! The beer was fresh and tasty and the seating areas were comfortable and warm! I will definitely be in there again the next time I visit the old dears who live in the village! 🙂

Very friendly staff and lovely food

Great friendly atmosphere, good food went there twice and would definitely go back if we down that way again. Braising Steak gravy mash and peas. 20/10.

Great country pub. Very friendly.

Fantastic roast and really lovely staff. Highly recommended! Xx

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 🙏🏼

Great little pub, great service and good food at very reasonable prices.

Cosy, clean and traditional interior. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Wholesale food freshly prepared and worth waiting for. ✋

On the canal, and decided to moor in Alrewas for food and drinks. Came across this little gem! Friendly staff, great food, great price! Def be popping in again

Great little pub with lovely food

Very good food which you need to pay by cast, fake card for drinks

Lovely little village pub, good choice of beers and wines, reasonably priced food cooked well, steaks were very tasty,,, Friendly locals & helpful bar staff, Ice to hear decent music playing in the background,, Cheers to management for a pleasant atmosphere,, 👍

Very good beer and friendly staff

Lovely food at very reasonable prices. The lamb shank is possibly the best I've ever had. Good real ale (choice of 3). Pub and food possibly separate businesses, as had to pay for food and drink separately. Excellent service. Well used by locals, which is always a good sign. Staying at Wychnor Park Country Club which is only 5-10 minutes drive away.

Very good service have been about 3/4 times in the past 2 years, yes very good.

Lovely drinks, friendly staff and a nice beer garden.

Friendly local with a good range of ales at reasonable prices

Excellent pub great food great ales and very professional staff what more could you ask for 🍺🍺

Very friendly staff. Pleasant atmosphere with great beers and food.

Really nice traditional pub with great food. Highly recommended.

Ruby miller best barmaid with the best service

Great pub and staff very friendly, especially Lottie the Assistant manager. How she keeps Ruby under control the mind boggles!

Best pub with the best service, ruby was so polite and a little fitty

Food was amazing, staff all wearing masks and really friendly, excellent experience.

Great price for food food excellent service excellent would recommend as a must for food

Outside looked nice inside us a bit shabby wait for food was too long

Because it had friendly people in the place

Visit The Willy regularly,great atmosphere and competitively priced food with good selection of ales!

Very well run pub, lovely staff and great food at a very reasonable price. Look forward to it reopening soon. 🙏🤗

Kid and dog friendly, really nice staff. Food was good, will definitely visit again if in the area.

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!

Value for money menu, decent beers
