The best restaurants serving British food in Redditch West Midlands

Love this place. Great coffee and cake. Just the job half way round a 50 mile bike ride!!

Always enjoy my food when we go

We visit this Cafe often and have never had cause for complaint. Unfortunately, Saturday 3rd. May changed this, My Husband and I took our Granddaughter for brunch, It wasn't busy at all so we thought it wouldn't take long, We waited over half an hour for the food which we could accept as you have to allow for this sometimes. We ordered brunch with bread and butter and when it arrived we asked for vinegar, we waited and waited and half way through our meal we had to ask a passing waiter again, moments later the waiter, a person with red/black hair came over with the vinegar and plonked it on the table as the waiter turned to leave , My husband asked if he could swap one the crust of bread (as neither of us like the crust) for a normal bread, The waiter literally turned round without the crust and walked of shaking their head on the way, and then never returned, It was rude and disrespectful and will certainly make us think twice before going there again.

Charged £33.60 for two scrambled eggs/salmon on toast, one tea and one coffee. Watery scrambled eggs, small slice of salmon and one slice of toast. An extortionate price for what we got. Still, live and lean and won't return.

Best jacket potato I’ve had in a long time worth every penny x Excellent service staff are wonderful and very friendly phoned up my order dead on time to collect I recommend them xx

Absolutely lovely Sunday dinner, the beef was amazing, the waitress was very happy and helpful, will definitely go again

Beautiful place to have a break Everything is fresh made. Fantastic Thank you !🥰

Food was excellent, had the large carvery and was not disappointed, only thing I will say is the decor is an interesting choice. Was sat next to a horses head statue lol

Not very good at all. Very expensive , which is okay if the food and the service are good. Both were pretty woeful. fish & Chips that doesn't come with chips you have to buy the chips separately so essentially £15 for a small piece of very average battered fish or £20 if you want some chips with your fish and chips? Seems like a con really. Mushy peas and tartare were left off, when we asked we got some dried up once frozen peas but mushy peas as stated and that go so well with fish & chips. Two incredibly over priced burgers, again no chips no sides you would expect with a burger, all had to be purchased at an additional cost. Crazy prices for the food being served. The burgers weren't at all what was stated on the menu, no sauce or pickles just a bit of burger in a bun (one burger was very burnt) Really not great. My husbands and my sons meal came out I was told the chef had forgotten mine. My food arrived once everyone else had finished eating which is rubbish when you are paying a lot of money to eat out together. Mistakes happen, that's okay. It's how places deal with it. Not once did the manger or a senior member of staff come and apologise or offer some sort of discount, complimentary puddings maybe? A young waiter, very sweet lad was sent over to say sorry there had been a mistake in the kitchen. I think if the customer service had of been okay it could be forgiven. Very average over priced food and a terrible customer experience. Really wouldn't recommend eating here.

The is my local & im so glad, staff are amazing always positive pleasant & helpful, food is always good, peroni is great Charmaine very attentive polite and respectful, Alex is a great guy, kamren is amazing my wife and I love him, Dave recently taken the manager job very approachable & helpful guy, there a credit to the ember inn franchise. Kind regards Sean Conway

Had the cheese burger & fries and the margarita pizza to take away. Burger was lovely and juicy and tasted fantastic, chips cooked well. Pizza looked lovely but has too much herbs on for me so swapped with my husband and he really enjoyed it. Would 100% recommend and return.

Started working locally to kaz’s filling station after working and getting all my food in Stratford. Every visit is a pleasure and food exceeds expectations every time. Highly recommend for breakfast or lunch!

My friend and I went for a last lunch here today as The Forest has been sold and closes tomorrow. It will be much missed as it’s always had wonderful food, atmosphere and very friendly and professional staff. Hopefully the new owners can match the current standards. It’s main problem is that it’s position on the high street means that it has difficulty picking up passing trade as it’s easy to drive past while looking for the entrance and it’s a fair way before you can turn round! So, good luck with trying to solve that puzzle. So, we’re going to try the sister restaurant, The Chequers at Crowle...

really enjoyed our fish and chips, came lovely and hot, delivery was excellent, definitely buy again

Not as good as the chippy in Astwood Bank but the chubby lad Lucas with the Jake Paul haircut is relatively pleasant in a simple kind of way. Their best worker Mandip has unfortunately left.
