The best restaurants serving British food in West Midlands

What a great pub. Dogs are welcome, along with families. Cobs and pizzas are delicious, plus staff go above and beyond to make your welcome. Good beer garden.

A lovely little cosy pub and the bar lady Kerry really helped us out in our hour of need. We had moored up over a mile away and no pubs were doing food, my kids were tired and hungry and kerry let us eat our food from the takeaway in there as late and raining she really went above and beyond for us and any parent knows in these situations you need a little bit of help and luck. Also very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. So if your near by and in need of a drink and some friendly company, choose this place and you won't be disappointed.

What a lovely cafe, visited with my neice for lunch and also was tempted by the homemade tiramissu and omg ill only ever eat tiramissu here again. 😋 lovely freindly staff.

We were in Oswestry for a short break. It's a lovely town. We went into the old coffee pot for a coffee and cake in the morning when we got there. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The place itself is 1940s styled and has a lot of memorabilia and themed background music. The cakes were homemade and really good, I had a salted caramel cake and the wife had a black forest gateau style cake. Our hotel turned out to be accommodation only and we went back for breakfast the following morning. I had a full English, and the wife had porridge and toast. The food was brilliant, cooked to order and nice and hot. On the way out they had put a victoria sponge out that looked heavenly. If you are in Oswestry go to the old coffee pot.

One of the best dining experience. Loved every single dish. Well balanced flavours from start to finish. Good portions too. Excellent service from Tony (chef) and Deb (wife). Unique dining experience unlike other establishments- you’re actually sat in a long table with other guests. You can bring your own booze/ drinks. But they do offer coffee/ tea with our last course- petit fours (chocolate made in-house by the chef). There is a shop just around the corner that sells liquor- so you can easily get them before your meal. Added a few more new photos from other visits. Again, the food was equally amazing! You’ll never be bored of their menu as Tony manages to come up with new menu every month! They also started bagels for morning/ brunch. The fish fingers and beef burgers were to die for!

Not many places in Shrewsbury offer a taster menu, but @thewalrusrestaurant has built a reputation for its culinary creativity in recent years. With a chic bar area for cocktails and an intimate restaurant space, diners are treated to a cozy atmosphere, with some tables overlooking the river. ⭐️4.5/5 Recommended👍🏻 Price 💸💸/💸 The meal began with delightful amuse-bouches designed to tantalize our taste buds. The light crispy pastry encasing smoky, soft beef tartare was a standout! Bold, flavourful, and utterly captivating. It certainly set the tone for the feast ahead. Next came the pumpkin bread with a pillowy-soft center beneath a perfectly baked crust served with miso-infused butter. **Starters** Porcetta: The first starter featured thinly sliced herbed Porcetta, capers, and a hint of citrus, combining to create a refreshing and harmonious dish. This dish divided opinion with one of us raving about the flavour combinations and the other left unsure. Mushroom: The second starter showcased the earthy taste delightful texture of mushrooms and potato in a rich, indulgent sauce. The exquisite morels added depth and elegance to this satisfying course. **Mains** Sole: The first main course was a medley of bold flavors and textures. Grilled lemon sole, English asparagus cooked to perfection paired beautifully with brown shrimp and the crunch of toasted hazelnuts. The hollandaise sauce provided richness, but a lemony curd like accompaniment felt unnecessary and the whole dish slightly over-salted for our taste. Dry Aged Duck: The second main brought duck served two ways complemented by tamarillo. Tamarillo, something you don’t often see and reminiscent of sweet peach plus butternut squash, parsnip, beetroot, and carrot slivers. While the duck had the desired layer of fat this could have benefited from more rendering, the flavours however were intriguing and enjoyable. **Desserts** Rhubarb & Custard: For those less inclined towards sweet deserts, this offered a perfect balance: vibrant orange cream, fresh tart rhubarb pieces, rhubarb sorbet, and meringue tiles. Carrot & white chocolate: Delicious!

Nice location with the restaurant in the grounds of a pottery. Very good food with a largely vegetarian/vegan menu but some limited meat options. Gets very busy on a weekend so a bit of a wait for food but worth it

Trudie is so lovely and welcoming and the garden is an oasis of calm. Delicious cakes and treats as well as a lovely craft selection to browse. I would highly recommend a visit when the new season starts next spring
