Woodman Inn in South Staffordshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Excellent Sunday lunch, beef rib amazing. Staff very attentive and friendly. Prices really good. Can’t wait to see it after the makeover.

Good food friendly staff good atmospere good pub grub not overpriced but the price of the drinks make it to some a over priced meal for familys where drinks are dearer than the food.

I can't understand why the Carlsberg lager is 80p dearer than the Harrowby arms 2 miles away.

Nice steak.Could of done with a bigger 1 on the menu

Today we celebrated twenty years since we first met, so wanted a nice lunchtime meal out to celebrate. Hadn't been to the Woodman Inn for over five years and have to admit we were pleasantly surprised. The food was absolutely superb, with everything cooked to perfection, in fact my wife said it was probably the best steak she had ever eaten, which is praise indeed. I had the Halloumi flatbread with Tikka sauce which was extremely mouth watering. The side dishes of chips and onion rings were perfectly cooked too. We finished off with two ice cream sundaes that had Mars and Maltesers pieces in them. If you have a sweet tooth I can truly recommend those Sundaes. The staff in there are extremely friendly, really helpful, attentive and really make for a welcoming atmosphere, which is really what you want to celebrate a special occasion. The prices are extremely competitive, so will certainly be returning there again.

jo was amazing very helpful and attentive

Food was good value, service seemed a little slow considering how quiet it seemed but friendly staff. Would definitely return.

Very nice and clean and friendly

Haven't been to the Woodman for quite sometime, but after recommendations from a friend I decided to take my family there for a Sunday teatime treat. Will we go back again' Yes most definitely...Good food, reasonably priced with a great range of Beers & Cider. The Three lads that were working behind the bar and front of house were a credit to the Pub, very polite & attentive...nothing was too much trouble. Thanks Guys for a lovely afternoon.

great burger had The Cheesy BBQ Stack and it was very good

The Tandoori Temptress burger was immense. Great good overall, staff were great. Absolutely no complaints. Had no Lamb Kofta for the flatbreads but had an alternative that was damn tasty. Will definitely be back

Great food. Great drinks. Great staff. Couple of things out of stick but that's not a big deal. Alternatives were had and thoroughly enjoyed it. The Tandoori Temptress burger is an absolute must, wow. Will definitely return.

Great food, staff and experience. Will be back!

This pub is a little gem. The food is delicious and exceptional value for money with various deals on offer most days of the week. The staff are very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. We have been coming to this pub, off and on,for over thirty years and have never been disappointed in either the quality of the food on offer or the friendliness of the staff. If you're in the area and looking for a welcoming place to eat where good quality, tasty food is served and the assurance of excellent, friendly, customer service, then there is nowhere better, in our opinion, than The Woodman at Codsall.

Great food at a great price. Friendly service.

Poor menu choices for Vegetarians. Staff are brusk, when asked about menu. So we left. Dog friendly but not welcoming to all people.

Been a regular for a number of years now (9 ISH) and seen GM"s / staff come and go but can honestly say the current staff members are spot on! All helpful, friendly and IF any issues will resolve straight away. Fantastic team and believe a new GM is due after losing Dom who was a FANTASTIC GM ! Lets hope the new GM carries the positive momentum on 👍🏼

We love the Woodman, Jo the barmaid is always very welcoming and friendly and goes the extra mile. We forgot to order a starter for our daughter she sorted out in seconds, no drama. Great service.

Had a lovely meal with husband a big thank you to the team for great food

Service was great from Jo and reece food cooked perfectly had the southern taste burger was lovely thank you for a great visit 😀

Great atmosphere for the football

Went for a birthday meal with my family, the food was delicious and the service was quick. Staff were very welcoming and polite.

Another cracking visit to the woodman staff were attentive and able to answer anything we asked definitely returning

Recently came in with my husband for some cheeky midweek food as we didn't want to cook haha! My god I'm glad we did, from the service, to the atmosphere to the food - just beautiful. Will definetly be coming back.

Let hope one day woodman's dishes will look like in its menu...

Great food, 3 year old fussy eater finished everything 🎉. Staff friendly. Above review just under a year ago Not sure what happened but went to the woodman inn today and food standards have slipped I ordered a ribeye and was mostly fat and tasteless... My daughter had the chick n mix and left most of the chick as it tasted like cardboard and was dry. Please do something about the quality not good when your local goes down hill. Staff friendly

Amazing crowd of friendly people. Food was perfect,staff were efficient and friendly also. We had a great night, what a team! Thanks again.

Had a great night here last night. We booked a table for the Fury v Usyk fight. Great atmosphere and quick service. Nice guys behind the bar 🙂

Wow, where do I start. From the warm welcome when we arrived to the tearful goodbye at the end the staff didn’t stop making it an unforgettable experience. Thank you the woodman, thank you

Jo very welcoming, enjoyed the bunnychow recommendation!

Perfect service and very nice food, thank you

Food is always great. Staff are always so helpful

Been a while since I have been to the Woodman but I was pleasantly surprised. Service was good and the food came out really quickly and when it did it was also delicious. Went again and not as good as the first time, no burgers available, staple food for a pub like this so was surprised. Table sitting near were swearing and being rude so not really recommend it you have small children.

Absolutely a lovely evening. The atmosphere was so welcoming. Food- hot and well presented. My ribeye steak cooked to perfection, mixed grill lovely. Staff were happy, cheerful and couldn’t do enough. We will be back!!!

Ordered 4x fish and chips. Quick and tasty. Beer was fine. Staff very friendly and helpful 😁 Really good offers on different days of the week

Joe served us well, really happy with her service happy and well mannered

Lovely evening, good food and very reasonably priced

Popped into the Woodman Inn on Sunday, part of Greene King. Pretty quiet for a Sunday especially with football been shown. Ordered turkey carvery via the Greene King app but told that the turkey was gone so opted for beef instead. Only £8.49 for the meal and a cup of tea for £2.19. Food was good though meat seemed very square shaped. There were only 2-3 vegan main meals available on the menu. Service was reasonably quick. Gents was a bit smelly though looked clean. Plenty of TVs on the wall showing the footie.

The Woodman has recently changed management. The food is great and the service is excellent

The food was lovely... I didn't have to wait long for our food at all and the service at the bar was quick with a happy face... We'll be definitely comeback again soon

Popped in with a few mates to watch the football and had a friendly atmosphere. Never met the boss before but he made a point of coming over to introduce himself. All the staff were also very friendly. Only had a light meal but it hit the spot and tasted lovely.

Great staff who were all very friendly and quick service. Food was beautiful and atmosphere was really pleasant. Feel very welcome all the time and would definitely recommend.

Good place for lunch. Great evenings with Dom and crew.

Was Very pleased. Staff very helpful and food was lovely I would definitely be going again and would recommend to everyone

Great new menu. Love the new chicken wing options and grills. Best place for lunch in the local area. Jukebox Friday is good too.

Great customer service and food when coming in for lunch today. Our waiters were Ben & Reece, both were really polite and attentive. Would definitely recommend!!

Meals where nice staff where lovely overall nice family meal.

Staff are always great cant do enough for you, food and drinks are very nice and good value, love the new chicken and rib combo! Highly Recommend!

Will defo Return,Food Fab.Tasty ! Reece our waiter 10/10.

Having been here several times over some years, we expected the same standard and service. Unfortunately we were very disappointed on this occasion. The three of us ordered our meals which were all different. One had Hunters Chicken, another had Steak and ale pie and the third had gammon on a skillet. When the meals arrived the gammon was not served on a skillet missing the onion rings, the Steak and ale pie the pastry casing was to thick and dry. As for the Hunter's chicken well what can I say. It was ordered with mashed potato which looked greenish the chicken breasts was in fact one breast cut in half with a very small amount of cheese and barbecue sauce. It was returned as it looked extremely unappetising and not to the the description of the menu. When I asked a member of the staff for some mustard I was told that they had run out as well as the onion rings. One ordering further drinks they had also run out of lemon's. From a replacement meal of Steak and ale pie, beans were ordered instead of peas but no bean's arrived on the dish but peas. For a pub of this size and being very popular the standard has greatly dropped even under new management. This destroyed the whole evening as in previous visits it has been excellent. To make matters worse there was also a power cut.

Amazing family pub for all the family, always a friendly welcome and amazing food

Brilliant Ben and cal best barmen ever

We popped in for lunch today. I had Fish and Chips, my husband had the Vegetarian Garlic mushroom and cheese tart. The meals were on the 2 for £11.99 menu. Amazing value and good portions. The fish was exceptionally nice, so fresh and lovely thin and crispy battered. Both meals came out quickly and were served hot! Honestly couldn’t fault it. Lee who brought out our meals was attentive, nice and polite. Shall definitely be going again.

Friendly staff, great variety of menu and a good choice of drinks

Positives? The two staff serving were great, very polite. That's the good bit over with sadly. The food took a long time considering the place wasn't busy and the best I can say about it would be that it was edible, the "signature" Jamaican chicken stew looked very little like the picture, there was very little effort made. None of the sliced spring onions, chillies, peppers as described, was just some tasteless chunks of chicken in a rather stodgy brown gloop. We added peri peri sauce to it to give it some moisture and taste. No-one came round to ask how the food was so I didn't get the chance to talk about it to a member of staff until we had eaten (we were very hungry and didn't feel like running around trying to find staff) and I'd paid, the guy behind the bar apologised and said they had recently had a new chef. An excuse we've heard before. It's just lucky for the pub that the nearby Chinese takeaway was closed last night or we would probably have left the food there and then. New (old) management, same old issues unfortunately.

Havent used this pub for visited some time, but good menu and food was served well, good portions especially as on a deal Staff pleasant. As a Wed and early evening, lounge was quiet. Only thing that let it down for me was the ladies. The ledge and skirting behind the door really needed a clean. And perhaps toilets need a regular recheck. But on the whole a pleasant meal. We will try to visit again when in the area.

Have been going quite regularly, it's dead easy to order on the app and we love the 2 meals for £11.49 offer, not only is it a great price but the food is really good too! Always steaming hot and tasty Service is quick too!

Great meal staff friendly ..enjoyed our time in pub thanks to the boss and staff

Popped in while I had an hour to kill in the area. Had a great coffee watching the sports on TV.

We had a lovely meal, the food was fresh and cooked to perfection. The service was extremely good, staff very friendly and attentive, the ale was gorgeous.

Well done to everyone at The Woodman, a great location for my birthday party. All my friends loved it. The staff were excellent and it made for a very good night.

Food poor, but what can we expect for the cheap prices. Most disappointing was the Speckled Hen beer. Terrible! Took it back to replace with Abbott Ale. Slightly better, but left half of it and didn't bother to replace.

My local brilliant friendly service

What a great night in The Woodman last night. Lewis Watson was absolutely amazing great vocals.Hope he returns there. Lovely atmosphere. The rump steak was medium rare cooked perfectly thank you. All food on our table well presented and value for money. Staff were great. We will definately return. Thank you to Dom and the team .😁

Very good food, relaxed atmosphere.

Was OK nothing special funny layout

Lovely atmosphere..food lovely..service great . The pub was lovely and clean. We had food and drinks x Offered choice of gins x Good its got a car park.

Came for a birthday meal, excellent food and recieved a high standard service throughout meal , would recommend the woodman

Lovely meal with my family, burger was delicious and staff were very helpful. Nice atmosphere and quick service even though it was a busy lunchtime.

The woodman is such an amazing place to be. When looking for a pub to go to where the staff are friendly, their food is top notch and the locals are lovely too then the woodman is the place to go. They hosted an amazing competition and a karaoke that made it such a good night. Love Dom and Amy. So when you're next in the area make sure to pop in and show them some love.

Lovely place to visit, very clean and friendly environment! the manager goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome definitely will return thank you

Nice food and friendly staff. Great value for money.

Lovely food, excellent service. Look forward to my next visit.

Came for a lovely meal with famik ly, good service and excellant foid, served promptly, and a good price, excellant atmosphere

Went to celebrate 83rd birthday.starters were lovely, wings, Main course, my wifes Scampi was lovely, I had Rump Steak which I could not cut with steak knife. Supposed to be med- well done, Waitress said " Sorry"

Brilliant place, very much enjoyed the visit.

Excellent value for money and very friendly staff. Could not fault

Decided to grab some dinner about 1pm as we were passing by, we ordered the millionaire’s burger, fish and chips and lasagne with a side of chips. All of the chips must have been yesterdays leftovers especially since we were one of the first people to order, as they were all brown, shrivelled and rubbery. The mushy peas were crusty and dry and the lasagne (or lack of as there was barely any there) was burnt. The best thing about the entire visit was leaving! Cost £40 for three pops and three crap small portions of food.

Food is always good and hot Service is always excellent Highly recommend

Steak hot , chicken hot , everything else warmish , was a lot better 2 months ago , not bad but will try elsewhere for a while

Great food and brilliant service by Jo

Visited on boxing for a meal, had a great time

absolutely terrible food was shocking and way overpriced was not expecting this never again

Half the food didn't taste that good for the Christmas menu, The food was over priced and took ages for drinks and food to be brought to the table. Food had no taste, was literally all frozen stuff and re-heated. Awful place for Christmas Dinner. Do NOT recommend!!

Food wasn't particularly good, undercooked veg mainly, gingerbread cheesecake not very appetising. Good portion sizes. Could have done with Christmas music and done without a huge TV on the wall behind us with football on.

Good beer and food at a fair price

Lovely village pub, staff friendly food great and a good atmosphere

Love the team, definitely sad Craig is leaving 😢 Callum is a little Ray of sunshine as always. All the waiting staff were so sweet making sure everything was perfect as always. Thanks Jo for being so friendly and quick to help me when ever I asked. Luke is a sweetie and is very proud of the food he serves which he should be 😃 Outstanding as always this pub should be 5 stars 🌟 🤩 See you soon Kimmy 😊

Food was amazing. Staff friendly & very attentive ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍

Noisy, draughty, kids racing about, deafening sport on the TVs, not the pleasant evening I was looking forward to.

Can't fault them at all. The food was delicious and really reasonably priced. The staff were awesome and very welcoming, especially considering one of our dogs was being a bit of a pain. Will be back again soon

Pub was nice and quiet.(until we got there).lovely enjoyable meal..as always

Didn't go for food so can't pass judgment. However, we visited for the Newcastle United vs PSG game. The bar area is rather small but this only adds to the atmosphere. The locals aren't afraid to get involved and happy to talk with you. Nice little fireplace, a shame that it wasn't used but has potential. The service gets a 4 rather than 5, only due to at times, there was a considerable wait despite being the only one waiting. This is the only thing to let it down in all fairness. Will be returning for future games.

It's a nice pub, but it doesn't look very friendly. It's always nice to be more welcomed by the staff.

Craig and the team were so attentive although they were incredibly busy I felt well catered for as usual the grills are always top nosh! But the staff truly make the place, they work so hard to give the best service with top quality food. My mixed grill was so flavorful and I cant wait to go back. If your looking for a fantastic dining experience go to the Woodman :) They have a large veggie menu too which nice give a try.

Called in for a quick pint but ended up being a bit longer, good pint and lovely staff. Great atmosphere for football.

Craig is an excellent manager at the woodman. Friendly and makes anyone feel welcome. The staff are polite also and friendly. Excellent service and would definitely recommend.

Great night again ! Food spot on! Jamaican chicken stew 😘. Craig and his team are so attentive and always make you feel welcome

Standard chain pub, nothing special, and in need of bit of a refresh.

Had a lovely meal with my mum. Service was brilliant, atmosphere was great too. We had the steak and gammon, both cooked perfectly. Did not have to wait long for food even though it was peak Sunday lunch time.
