The best restaurants serving British food in Stafford West Midlands

We booked a private outdoor pod for a birthday celebration. The staff were really accommodating and lovely. The food was hot and some of the best food I’ve had! We loved the private pod and the ambience was great! Entire experience was fantastic! Would certainly come again!

Throughout our time at The Wayfarer all Staff were very polite and attentive. Our most delicious food arrived quickly. The restaurant was busy and had a lovely atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our family celebration. We love the Wayfarer and will definitely return.

A very well decorated dining room with excellent service and good food

Nice Pub staff are really friendly and very polite. Could do with refurbishing a bit tatty and well worn.meals are very tasty 😋

I haven't been there, for quite a long time and needed a place to catch up with friends, so we chose the King's Horse. The food was lovely and we all had a great time. However, today me and my friends have received a parking charge notice of £100!!!! We are fuming 😤 I have never,ever been to a pub and got charged a fine for parking in their car park!!! The letter states there is signage, but we never saw and would expect not be allowed to park there, for the time we did! Staff should make customers aware!!!! Absolutely ridiculous and shall be posting on social media! We will NOT be returning there again!!

Deb served us for lunch today, and she was fantastic. Very attentive and the food was beautiful. We’ll be back! Thank you!!

Arrived, eventually got greeted and seated, then got completely ignored for the next 20 minutes before giving up. Can't comment on the food but not a great experience, especially given that we were there with tired children in need of their dinner and seeking the convenience of a restaurant next to our hotel.

First time coming here with my partner. The food and service was excellent! We had a great deal on starters - 3 for £12. The chorizo sausage was highly recommended! Staff were really friendly and welcoming. The gentleman named Mike serving our food was lovely, made the evening a lovely experience. Will definitely come back.

Visited today with family and the only cold drink choices without sweeteners were iced coffee (that had barely any coffee in) or cans of water.

Very disappointing food….. Starters - prawn dish, only 5 small prawns being over cooked in boiling oil accompanied by piece of bread with mayo. Goats cheese tart smothered with balsamic vinegar. 3 out if 5 main courses were cold. Sent back but not even warm when supposedly heated.Lamb shank had ‘shrunk’ in size when meal returned. Very undercooked roasted vegetables - not cooked! Luke warm coffee. Horrific noise, disco above, restaurant music too loud…….. We had asked to change table due to the noise above only to be seated in a similar part of the restaurant- UNDER THE DISCO of the wedding party. I’m addition to the music and thudding the restaurant had its own music blaring. We asked for the restaurant music to be turned down but we were told by a deputy manger that it could not be turned down and it was to hide the noise of the disco above. This noise was horrific!!!!!! No wonder very few tables were in use in this area of the cellar restaurant!! We spoke to the manger re the above - all he and the deputy did was to offer free desserts or coffee, no apologies. I told them that we had used Weston hall on many occasions over many years and how we had never had such an awful experience. It was very disappointing that our family meal to celebrate a ‘special’ birthday had been spoilt. Neither of these managers seemed to bother and had a very defensive attitude. The deputy actually told me to stand and wait for a few minutes to speak to him - he was speaking to a waiter. The manager thought by offering 3 free desserts would make everything right - we declined the desserts. They then thought that taking the cost of some drinks off the bill made up for a spoilt evening. I suggested that when people make a booking they should be told if their table is going to be under a disco!!! Our booking had not been ‘last minute’ so we should have been told. Absolutely awful experience.

Wow what can I say - found this on the of chance looking g online so decided to give it a go for dinner. From the second we arrived - the whole dining experience to the minute we left everything was absolutely phenomenal. The service was outstanding and the food cooked with passion. We throughly enjoyed our evening and so reasonably priced. If we visit Staffordshire again we will certainly return here for our evening meals. Managed to have a walk around the grounds after dinner, what a man outstanding location of beauty and serenity - Congratulations on an exceptional business that focuses on first class customer service and true hospitality - Thank You

Well, what a surprise. We arrived well after lunchtime but before tea. The pub itself needs a good overhaul in terms of decor. Quite shabby and dusty. There was no one in the pub at the time, but the staff took our order, and it came quickly. What an amount!! I've never been defeated by meat until now!!! Hubby had a grill which was plentiful, and I had ribs. Little too much sauce for me but I scraped it off. It was tasty.. I took half of mine home! We will definitely revisit. Sunday carvery is supposed to be good....

We normally visit on a Sunday, for the carvery, but we decided to have meals off the main menu. Great value for money, food tasted great. We will continue to return.

Visited one lunch time with some friends, not over busy, lots of empty tables. Originally seated under aircon(?) unit but found it to be dripping directly onto the table and the floor next to the table. We moved elsewhere and raised with the team and we overheard “oh yeh I know. Just shove a wet floor sign”. No apology for the inconvenience of having to uproot ourselves, belongings, drinks etc, no attempt to clean the puddle or take the table out of service with a false reservation sign or anything. Wasn’t offered sauces, didn’t have anyone check our meals were ok (they weren’t very hot but were edible), didn’t have our plates cleared - generally just a bit of a let down really. They didn’t seem busy or understaffed, so cant really work out why there was no real service beyond dropping our meals to the table.

Went to the beer festival yesterday, wide selection of drinks, really good beer, decent live band and lovely staff. Downside was all the ciders I tried were extremely sweet and tepid and the BBQ food was AWFUL. £12 for a thin burnt pizza with very little pepperoni and £8 for a very average burger with one slice of kraft cheese and no other toppings or salad. The chips were good but again expensive, and no salt and vinegar were available or other condiments. Strongly recommend sticking to drinks and eating elsewhere until they resume serving the normal food menu.
