The best restaurants serving British food in West Midlands

Lovely community pub. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good decor and atmosphere. Toilets spotlessly clean. Great menu and vegan options for all courses. I was offered a vegan option not actually on the menu and it didn’t disappoint. Kale and sweet potato pie with fries and green beans and cabbage. Delicious,! My friends and I extremely happy with customer service and food. I would definitely recommend it.

Enjoyed a delightful lunch at the Drum. Had the split pea soup with rustic bread, and side of chips, perfectly made. Delicious!

Really disappointed that no leeway was given with the vouchers for the tea room. Mum's friends had bought them for her 90th Birthday in December, and I was going to take her over for afternoon tea with 'the girls'. Sadly mum's health declined and we were not able to go. When she died in August I found the vouchers, intending to return them to 'the girls' so they could still do afternoon tea in memory of mum. But they had expired, and when I got in touch I was told that it was too late, and nothing could be done. Mum's friends are all pensioners, so £30 is a lot of money. Sad.

This placeis so brilliant. Best breakfast in Church Stretton in my opinion!! The veggie breakfast was top rate. Will be my come to place in future when walking here.

Great host Local welcoming local pub Allows dogs Lovely bar Highly recommended Authentic feel Will be back

We visit Bridgnorth two or three times a year and we always make sure we stop here for the fabulous breakfasts .. and also the cobs! We absolutely love the new addition of the seating area overlooking the river, we wanted to sit there all day. Can’t wait to come back. Thanks Ridley’s!

Lovely food, lovely people, especially the owner who came and chatted for a while. It's a small pub but it was recommend by the receptionist at the chain hotel we were staying at a couple of miles away.

Visited Merrymaid for takeaway dinner on 28th July 2024. Have visited several times and also eaten in the premises. The waitress took our order and read it back. Ordered a drink whilst waiting. The man serving, one of the owners sons ,checked the glass before pouring the drink, impressed. Friendly welcome, clean premises and we even sat with the lady owner and her 2 sons and conversed well after our takeaway had arrived. We enjoyed the meal, amazing delicious as always. I would say one of the best in Birmingham. Thank you.

Went for lunch and we were really impressed with the food and atmosphere. Great service from Abby and David who were both very friendly and attentive. Would recommend to anyone.

After visiting Witley court we sat in the attractive conservatory here and had a cream tea. It was very good, reasonably priced and brightened up a rainy day.

I had a meeting in Burton and decided to go once again to Summerhouse Bakery, now in the Octagon Centre. What can I say... the service was excellent as always. Polite staff, very attentive. Excellent priced food and drink. I had Pork, Cider and Mustard Pie for lunch and it was delicious... full of flavour, and served with vegetables. (a very generous portion too). Well done SHB for such great service. See you again!!!

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.

I have been here several times for afternoon tea, and have always been delighted. Two savouries were served, a quiche and a small sausage roll. These were very good. The sandwiches however left me underwhelmed. The fillings of tuna, cheese and pickle, coronation chicken and a tomato are something I would serve at home. Whoever had made them was not overly generous with the fillings either. As for the bread, I can't say it was old, more likely made early and not covered so it had dried on the outside. The cakes were good, but not exceptional. Service was friendly, but they appeared to be short staffed as the scones took ages to arrive. We also waited nearly 15 minutes after requesting the bill, before we could pay. I was intending to come again for my birthday in a few weeks, but will look elsewhere.

The Knot It was absolutely lovely if you go book in the Snug log burner and food to die for had a pork crackling roast and the potatoes and veg come separately, I had smash burger with salt/pepper fries and slaw followed by Apple Tart Tatum and a lemon/pistachio Tuscan trifle couldn’t rate it highly xxxx

truly wonderful cafe, memorable experience, great atmosphere, fantastic bread, free lollipop tasted amazing
