The best restaurants serving British food in Blythe Solihull West Midlands

Very good Sunday roast & decent enough service

Dont bother if you want a coffee after 8pm, staff closed it down and not very welcoming, over priced food and drink.

We booked for a special 70th birthday celebration for my mother. We pre informed the team on the phone of our special dietary requirements, 5* vegan, and were extremely disappointed to be told when we arrived and ordered that our special requirements could not be met as they didnt have a record. We were offered vegan sandwiches but as most will appreciate, you dont have an afternoon tea for the sandwiches! Whilst we appreciate it wasnt the servers fault, the customer service was poor and we felt like we were the ones in the wrong! Even though we could see the drinks had been made and we asked to have those complimentary (given our wasted 30 minute drive), we were told they weren't ready! It ruined our special day - our toddler was crying all the way home - and we wont be returning.

Popped out earlier today for lunch in the sun. My mobility isn't great, so I sought a table, while my son went to the bar for beers and menus. He works within the same group, so is very objective about waiting times/service etc. I thought he'd got lost, but he did explain, customer volume had exceeded staff numbers, but they'd had the good grace to explain, and that was no longer a problem. We're both massive dog lovers, so we soon found well behaved four legged distractions. Now knowing that we might wait a little for service, my son returned to order our food, and second drinks. The Signature Burgers were superb, proper quality beef, and onion rings to die for! We're big units, with healthy appetites, but felt no need for for additional courses, but both the Guinness and Thatchers, were both right on par. Can't say that of everywhere in the week of St Pats? The table servers were spot on, engaging and polite, the one fella even working past his allotted break, to make sure our needs were met, couldn't fault them. The custom around us, ebbed and flowed naturally enough, and if I had to withhold a star, some dog owners are not too responsible, and when you can hear the yapping above the road noise, you know the experience is about to descend. The other downside, the old chestnut, being the anti social smokers! Whether there's a designated area or not, the anti social among them, still managed to detract from a near perfect lunch. We will return, without doubt, it was just such a shame, that having driven out from the city, the outdoor experience was spoiled.

Went for lunch My wife has been a few times and always happy. Today wasn't good. I had fish and chips and it was all very dry. I think the fish had been left in a warming draw or similar. My wife said the same about her Mornay Maybe it was just a bad day

Family birthday meal with my kids, we used to love coming here but I am appalled at tonight's experience. The place had about 20 customers, so not busy and seemed to be a reasonable amount of team. Over half the menu was not available to order including the half roast chicken which is surely a signature dish for Harvester. Salad bar was empty of most things, but what was there was shrivelled and unappealing. Cutlery was dirty, and the medium rare steak that was ordered was cold and blue. On sending back I was told it would be 20 minutes... really for a medium rare rib eye.??? After my daughter and I had finished my sons meal was finally delivered, steak was still not cooked, and the chips, tomato, peas and mushrooms were clearly the same as had been sent out the first time. Maple sauce was 4 days out of date. When asking if the steak was going to be removed off the bill I was told, my manager will give you 20% off. Laughable and a total disgrace. M&B what are you thinking.. Will not return and will ensure to make our friends and family aware of this disappointing situation. And to the manager and team member that decided to argue with me, your customer service is a disgrace.

Came for the pub quiz with some friends which made for a good evening. Friendly characterful service - only drawback as the nominated driver was the limited range of non alcoholic drinks
