The best restaurants serving British food in West Midlands

The only place I go for a drink. All the staff are great. If weather permits. Great outside for a drink over looking canal.

I love this place as a drinking venue and being convinently placed next to my place of work I eat there regularly before starting my night shifts. Service is usually explemplary and quick. Food is nice for the price (apart from one issue which I'll get to). However last night's occurrence cannot be ignored. I ordered my usual Thursday curry and once again the samosa was cold/frozen inside so I said to the kitchen through their serving hole that it was frozen as it has been many times in the past, can it be replaced? The barman (who was friendly throughout trying to help) brought out a new one for me which was so cremated I had to saw it to open it. As you can imagine I was not best pleased and asked for an explanation. The poor innocent barman came back and said "I'm sorry sir, and we will be having words with the chef, it seems this was some sort of wind up. Can I get you a new one?" As you can imagine being subjected to a "joke" that you may play on a colleague or friend rather than a paying customer I was insulted saying "are they taking the p*ss" and demanded a refund. I got £1.76 back for the large curry upgrade. Not the best start to a 10 hour night shift. It's a shame I will be having to reconsider whether to eat/drink there again given it's convenience but it may take a while to get over this.

Absolutely awful woman (I use that word loosely) behind the bar....rude and sarcastic.... told us to go elsewhere if we didn't like it.....plus the prices were so expensive....... do yourself a favour and AVOID like the plague. I hope that barmaid loses her job.

A cosy, unpretentious pub, we ate here on 3 occasions during a week's stay nearby and experienced a warm welcome and friendly and efficient service each time. The menu has plenty ofl choices, including vegetarian/vegan options and we enjoyed all the meals we had. There was also a good choice of drinks on offer, including 2 locally brewed cask beers. Would definitely return on future visits to the area.

Six of us had sandwiches of varying fillings and we shared some chips (homemade-delicious). We polished everything off and everyone was happy. Would recommend definitely.

Excellent vale brunch menu at fair prices Benedict range all under £10 American Stacked pancakes with smoke bacon and maple syrup one of the best I have had Good quality coffee range Great tastes, service and value Highly recommended and will be back

We have eaten here often but today’s meals were exceptional. Hubby had the sea trout with mashed potato and vegetables. My steak was as tender as could be and the mushrooms were particularly tasty as was the peppercorn sauce.

Fab establishment. The staff are Always so friendly and welcoming . We come every week after parkrun and the staff are so welcoming and tolerant of us taking over a few tables. Lovely fresh food and reasonably priced drinks.

Had Sunday lunch here today. It was very nice. Had roast pork, delicious, lovely creamy mash, roast potatoes, nicely cooked vegetables, pipping hot. Good Size portions. Plenty of staff all very attentive/friendly. Would recommend and will return. Recommend you book as very popular. Well done team.

Good humoured, personable service and tasty pasties... what's not to like!

Went here with friends and had a nice meal, pub was nice and clean and the staff are very welcoming, will be returning again soon

Great value for money..really enjoyed the food & fast service too.Bar & serving staff were pleasant & seemed happy to be at work.

I booked a room through Booking.com for 2 nights for my partner and myself for whilst we attend an event at Ragley Hall over the weekend of 28-30th June 2024. I booked well in advance (Nov 2023), 7 months before the event! I have just received an email to say may booking has been cancelled due to overbooking! I can only think that the Queens Head Inn management have been able to secure a booking of a greater monetary value due to the closeness in date of the event and accommodation now being hard to find. As you can imagine, I am extremely disappointed in the way I have been treaded by the Queens Head Inn and I am now left to find alternative accommodation in such short notice. I would not recommend to book a room here as obviously the management are not trustworthy or sincere.

Today went with sister in law Always Friendly service by Bar Staff Meals are bought to table You can pay at the bar for drinks & meals or order on Wetherspoons App which me & hubby have chosen previously on App Today me & sister in law had drinks Mine was Squash and she helped herself to a hot drink you’re able to also help yourself to free Refills To eat she enjoyed Fish Chips & Mushy peas I had simple chicken tikka masala with rice Tastes delicious

Had a lovely meal here with family & friends on Saturday night & were made to feel very welcome. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals-but the homemade steak & ale pie my other half had-he said was one of the best pies he’d ever tasted. Will look forward to returning again one day so my Dad can try the faggots- which had unfortunately run out. Would definitely recommend this traditional pub for proper grub.
