The best restaurants serving British food in Hamps Valley Staffordshire Moorlands West Midlands

Lush pub, just popped in for a couple of beers, staff and landlord/owner couldn't be friendlier and more accommodating. Well worth a stop if you're nearby

Olde world pub that deserves to be on a preservation list. Very unique, in fact I don't think there is another pub like it, good ales to drink, welcoming staff, very popular during summer, bar menu would be classed as 'limited' but at the end of the day it's a pub. Do visit it

We went here for lunch after a walk to Thor's Cave. We had no idea what to expect but half expected the usual standard pub fayre that has come from a wholesaler. How wrong we were! We had lasagne and chips. My friend had the veggie version. And it was homemade and probably the best lasagne we have ever eaten. Absolutely gorgeous and so much attention to detail with the salad. Not just a token bit of iceberg with tasteless tomato. Far from it. Gorgeous flavours. My friend had a homemade pudding afterwards which again was delicious. I had coffee which was served in a pretty glass cup which also typifies what this pub got right - as well as the beautiful home made meal - care had been taken with everything including how it was presented. It was all cared for and valued and that's rare these days. The cosy fire and polite, gentle service was also a joy. We stumbled on a gem and we will be back! Thank you to all the staff involved.

Waiting 1 hour & 20 minutes for a child’s sausage and mash. Arrived in an ice cream bowl, 1 sausage and 2 teaspooons worth of mash (£8.50). Mentioned the issue was spoken to horrendously by ‘kitchen manager’ I have never been spoken to like it as a customer or human in fact. After arguments (from the manager) I was told she was sending someone to the shops to get ‘another sausage’ - I asked her not to bother and please refund (45 minutes later) I would avoid this place.

Lovely afternoon tea, sandwiches were really fresh and good choice of cakes too. Had a Buyagift voucher to use and chose the Dog and Partridge as it was on our way back from a long weekend in the Peak District. Staff very friendly and welcoming too.

Great little pub. Owners are very friendly and a good choice of beer . Lovely pub cat Will definately be visiting again soon
