Wow is all I can say about the aston tavern ! Went for prosecco afternoon tea with my mother ...knocks spots of any afternoon tea I've ever had and I've had a few at top hotels in the past amazing sandwiches & cakes superb staff and the most heart warming decor that took me in to the past I will definitely be returning and this time maybe try some lunch. A place that I certainly will remember.. A place too go too relax not your usual pub which is what makes the place special thank you too all the wonderful staff who were so lovely while my 1year old decided too have a melt down ! Thumbs up from me!
really pleasant place to eat decor amazing calm and serene even with two parties going on around the corner tea-pot cosies beautiful crockery tea strainer!! the list goes on Had afternoon tea there with my daughter granddaughter and great granddaughter and lovely Olivia it was my birthday treat very enjoyable recommend this venue to all.
Held an event here for my child's first birthday party, Michelle was extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with. Wouldn't hesitate to book another function here. Decor is extremely pleasant and we had plenty of positive comments from our guests.
The pub decor is very unexpected considering how close it is to the football ground. The staff were very friendly and sandwiches were fresh and nicely presented. Don't be put off by the road works outside the pub it is still open. Unfortunately it was very quiet so little atmosphere but I'm sure at busier times it would be better. If you are in the area or passing by call in you'll be pleasantly surprised.
We found this place searching for something close to Aston Villa stadium, it fit the bill perfectly location wise. What we didn’t expect to find was the kindest, most helpful people on the planet running it, beautifully done up rooms, immaculate cleanliness and a little slice of history.
I stay in a lot of hotels, and service always makes your stay better. From the moment we made contact with this place it was a pleasure to talk to them. Forgot about not too much to ask, these guys are one step ahead and offering whatever they can to make your stay as good as possible. If you need to stay in the area, pick this place. They deserve your business and you couldn’t do any better.
Liked the pub and the beer garden was great but went before the Springsteen concert and couldn't get a drink because of the queue at the bar - why not open a bottles only bar in the garden. You'd think with all the Villa games they would have adapted strategies to cope. The food was good but expensive.
Viewed for a family event, so didn't eat or use their facilities at the time of the viewing. The venue is impressive with an oldy-worldy feel about it. Several rooms and areas to use for the time of your booking, which includes an inside courtyard and side garden and a U-shaped main function room. Great for mingling, great little areas to sit and chat away from any music or the busy areas. A small room is available with a large table and suitable chairs, which is great to possibly use for older guests, children, or a reflective area if attending a wake, for example.
Caterers will be supplied with hot water but not allowed to use the venue kitchen, even if they are from the Taverns approved list.
Table & chair covers are available, with the chair bow in a vast amount of colours. (At a price). The venue appears to supply all your needs required to launch your event.
The large function room holds 250 approx people (if memory serves me right). Has a small bar available, area for music / DJing, area for catering set up. It also looks out on both outside aspects. Then you have the larger bar area with Chesterfield Club Chair in Antique Oxblood Red Leather, striking image and lovely atmosphere. (Capacity unrecalled) looks out to the courtyard.
Cons:
Parking within the grounds is limited. Not sure how many cars can fit. Large enough for a coach, but of course, that will reduce car spaces. Possibly can park on the road out the front, after hours.
Times of booking hours available: tbc
Cost: tbc
We stayed to attend a concert at Villa Park. From initial enquiry through to arrival, the level of service was superb. Michelle & her team, despite being swamped with hundreds of people all grabbing a beer pre-gig, were always there to make sure we were totally happy. The room was spotless. The brekfast was brilliant. Highly recommended!
Stayed over night with my partner as I had an exam in Birmingham, would definitely come again for a weekend away or to watch the football next time. Room size was really good! Shower was lovely and hot, and the room was spotless. The whoke place was lovely and clean. The staff are fantastic, so polite and attentive. Really wish I booked an extra night so I could have enjoyed some time at the bar and had some dinner as the menu looks great. Will definitely be returning.
Great atmosphere on a match day and a huge space with various bars to ensure queues aren't too big!
Spent the day here for the last game of the season and had a blast!
Was pleasantly surprise by the interior. Pleasant informative helpful staff.
Ladies toilets held a few surprises. Outdoor spacious facilities.
Big screens, £5 entry with a free curry/chilli (plus a veggie option), Villa fan, great atmosphere.
