The best restaurants serving British food in Needwood East Staffordshire West Midlands

Little gem of a pub with restaurant. Food excellent, as well as service. Best to book to guarantee a table. Good choice of dishes for every course

Arrived late as a rather frazzled mum with two hungry young children in tow and our lively young golden retriever. Fantastic friendly welcome from the owners. Dave the owner offered to take my dog off my hands while I got the kids sorted - and even took the dog outside for a wee as we had been driving for 8 hours! Above and beyond. I had called ahead to reserve a table and had a delicious main course of stuffed pheasant and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The children enjoyed their meals too. Wonderful relaxed environment where you can have a chat and everyone can feel at home. First discovered this pub in 2018 - it was my favourite pub then for the warm welcome and sticky toffee pudding and this has continued with the new owners! Definitely recommend if you are in the area - this pub is the real deal! Hope we can return soon.

The Landlord was very friendly, sociable and nothing was too much trouble. He went out of his way to ask about and accommodate any preferences.....superb customer care. The food was good, hot and well presented. The Marston's Pedigree was good and the drivers well accommodated with various hot drinks.. The place was nice and warm even on a cold day....excellent ambiance. I would recommend without a doubt and will return again.

My wife and I visited the Red Carpet Cinema & Cafe Bar on 17/01/25 for a meal. We have been three times now and really enjoy the setting, styling and atmosphere of the place. On this occasion I had the halloumi burger and my wife had the chicken burger, both were nicely presented and very tasty, then we both had desserts which also very nice. The service was great and our waitress Ellie deserves a special mention, she was friendly, polite and attentive and an absolute difference maker. Highly recommended..

Lovely food, staff and surroundings. The menu is fairly basic, but a good all- round selection to suit most tastes. One of our meals ( sea bass) came out barely warm first time, but it was returned promptly and they sent another, fresh and piping hot meal in good time. All the staff were very polite and friendly. They could do with checking on tables a little bit more often, but apart from this minor issue, all was well and we'll definitely be back again.

I like the Shoulder. It's unpretentious down to earth warm and friendly and so are the folk that run it and work there. The chef is an excellent cook. 2 of us had the famous steak and ale pie and one the Cod. Good pub grub at a reasonable price. Booked again for the 27th Feb! Can't say fairer than that!!

Pizza oven not working. Had run out of crumble & cheesecake. Parmesan sprinkled on salad on a vegan dish.
