The best restaurants serving British food in Walsall West Midlands

What a delight! We arranged an afternoon tea for my Dad’s 90th birthday. We arrived to beautifully decorated table and chairs for the occasion. The generous amounts of sandwiches, cakes, fruit and little chocolates were delicious and the staff very friendly and attentive. Thank you for making our family celebration very special. This cafe is a little treasure.

We had some beautiful food for my dads wake the service from Julie and son and all the staff was very accommodating the food was fresh and delicious which everyone commented on we highly recommend and will be using all the time now .

The local it’s just beautiful and the staff it’s so nice and friendly bonnie look after us and everything was just perfect her service was amazing lucky to have staff like her xx

Clare’s cafe is a wonderful place to eat and chat. All the staff are very friendly knowing most people on first name terms. The food is always very good and full breakfasts are very popular. Jacket potatoes cooked to perfection in potato oven. Lots of people attend the cafe on a regular basis. Very clean very tidy and very welcoming. The meals are well worth the money. It can get very busy around 12pm with table bookings and take away food.

Would not go anywhere else spotlessly clean friendly staff

Lovely hot food, was so nice, have changed my ordering place now to this place ..... better roast than anywhere .

Lovely friendly welcome great pub will definitely be returning

Very attentive staff food was presented beautifully flavours were very good and very friendly service , it’s a shame that they haven’t all had the opportunity to taste the menus. Lovely restaurant

I went to this cafe while passing through aldridge and it looked rather pleasant on the outside but after going in and being rudely greeted by who I assume was the owner. I've never been served by such a sour faced lady before. Absolutely zero manners and made me feel so unwelcome. The food looked amazing so I carried on with my lunch despite my rude greeting. As I bit in to my sandwidge, a long hair started coming out! I was disgusted. I went to have a sip of my tea to get the hairy Sandwich taste out of my mouth only to be greeted with what I can describe as a cold cup of milky water. Definitely won't be passing through this simply un- delicious place in the future!! As for the allegations made against myself on the reply to my review... I live in Ross-on-Wye and had been visiting my father in Burntwood. On my return home is when I visited the cafe. I'm absolutely not a former employee! The tea was served in a pot but still hardly any taste (maybe buy better tea bags, and bread while your at it). This visit was last month, I hadn't got around to uploading my review but I am damn glad I did now!! Horrendous way to speak to a potential future customer or any customer at that!

Been here a few times and the last 2 times the service has been very slow. The first time, before Christmas, nobody came to take our drinks order for our afternoon tea. This was noticed by one the staff and was rectified with a free glass of prosecco each. The menu on the afternoon tea wasn't explained to us like it was to the table next to us. The second time, in February, we had ordered drinks at the bar and told the drinks would come out to us. The bar man had made me the wrong drink and then the waiter showed me the receipt and said this is what you ordered. I said, no I ordered the other one. He argued with me implying I didn't know which drink I had ordered then said "try it and if you don't like it we will make you the other one" instead of apologising and bringing out my correct drink! We were then left waiting ages to place our food order, plates to be cleaned, asking for dessert, etc we had to flag people down each time we needed something. It was like our table was forgotten about.... Again! When paying the bill, we asked for the service charge to be removed to which the waiter (the same one that argued about the wrong drink) looked shocked and asked and confirmed numerous times the total amount which we agreed with but still kept asking when we wanted to split the bill between 4 of us.

This lady is rude with no customer service skills. She got my order completely wrong, ruining the surprise I had planned for a partners birthday. I messaged her asking what happened with the order and she didn’t reply for days. I messaged her again telling her I’d leave a bad review if she didn’t respond with a reason why the order was wrong, and why she has continued to blank me when asked about the order. She then called me being very rude down the phone saying all the things that were right with the order, but saying nothing about getting anything wrong. She just took my money and ran with it! giving me something I didn’t ask for. No offer of a remake, or a refund or even some of the money sent back. Unbelievable. Go elsewhere for your cakes, avoid this woman.

Amazing food and staff …steak cooked to perfection no waiting and well priced beer is also well priced 100% will be returning well done Ryan and the team

Booked here because we attended a previous funeral the room & food really nice , different story today for my mother’s funeral . We were all packed in to the smallest room you could breath a lot of us stayed outside . The buffet disgusting for what we paid not enough to feed the amount of people we paid per head . I won’t be booking in future and family & friends agreed . Shocking comes to mind .

Gorgeous festive afternoon tea. Well done to Becky Weeks and all the staff at The Sidings. Food was lovely and service was excellent. Feeling fatter than ever 🐷 The volunteers are priceless too.

the food was great but what put me off was how she treated her employees ,the girl looked like she was having a breakdown , i’ve been in there a few times before and the food has always been decent not the best but not the worst, but it was really the way she spoke to her staff ,really threw me off going again as i felt to say something because i wouldn’t like it if it was my daughter !!!!
