Good food for a good price and the portion sizes never disappoint!
Come to the quiz every Friday night and have food. Don’t expect too much as it’s a standard pub but never has a huge issue with any food. Staff always friendly but one lady in particular who stands out every week is MAGGIE, always friendly, happy,welcoming and attentive to us. works extremely hard and never seems stops even in all this hot weather. Any problems we’ve had she has always made sure they’ve been brought to attention and sorted out promptly. Definitely an asset to have at the pub, she’s amazing at her job and a hard worker.
Nice little green king pub on the outskirts of Stafford town. A play area for the kids and plenty of parking.
Star of the show here is the carvery which is very nicely prepared but they do offer a whole menu outside of the Carvery.
There garlic bread starter is to die for and would recommend this to anyone
The atmosphere is good the staff friendly and helpfull . The carvery selection is good also. Turkey gammon beef etc The pub is clean but gets busy weekends. Better to book a table in ADVANCE. Quieter during week. Always warm inside and smells like of food when you walk in. Nice gently music plays. Always get asked if everything is satisfactory? Personal touch is good. The meat assistant was very polite and stated to come back if any of the food is not up to standard..
Excellent experience.
I am someone who doesn't usually go for a carvary due to finding them massively underwhelming. How ever after visiting Stafford hospital me and my wife went here for a treat after. It was simply delicious. The atmosphere was alive and every customer seemed happy. There was a lady who was serving the meat who was the most friendliest person I have ever met. She genuily was happy to serve people and the food was amazing. The food was hot and fresh, the meat was juicy and tender and the roasties were importantly very crispy. If we are ever in Stafford again we will surely be there. I must also add that this visit was a Sunday so extra points for amazing service on a manic day 😀
Brilliant. We had a early Xmas family meal here and it was brilliant. Good range of different foods for all ages and vegetarians. The children were entertained because it has a small soft play inside. I had the carvery, food was tasty, service was quick and price was good, place was clean and décor was normal pub décor. Overall very good.
Went for a carvery with family. Service was good especially from the lady on the carvery who let my son try some cauliflower cheese as she heard him say he wasn't sure if he liked it. She also cut a Yorkshire in half for him as they were huge. Food was hot and we all enjoyed it.
I've been here twice now for a carvery and the first time the veg was perfect, the second time the carrots and sprouts were still hard, which I'm not keen on. That said, the food overall is tasty and the onion gravy is delicious. The staff have always been really helpful and friendly. We've not tried the main menu but from what we've seen it looks good.
Maggie behind the carvery counter was lovely. So welcoming and friendly. She managed to deal with the queue of people by operating quickly, but still providing a great service. Food was also delicious. Would highly recommend
We go here once every couple of months or so, I've got to say the lady (Maggie) on the carvery is always lovely. She's always has a smile for us and is just generally a very nice lady. The quality of the carvery is much improved since my last review, reasonably priced as well.

My friend and I ate mid week about 5pm. Young ladies clearing tables were very friendly. Older lady behind bar was not friendly or welcoming. Acted as if we were a pain having to be served with a grumpy face if I'm honest. I had the carvery the young man serving was very friendly and polite and asked me how I was and chatted with me. Carvery food was really nice tasty and plentiful. Good value also I thought my friend had a different dish unsure what it was so can't comment.
The pub inside is still rather dark and needs brightening up a bit really. I am going to visit again with another friend next week and I have recommended to family and friends how nice the food was.
Maggie on the carvery counter is the best!! She went above and beyond when we thought all hope was lost. Carvery shuts at 2.30pm. As we were waiting for the kids meals to arrive, we weren't aware of the carvery closing time. Maggie was packing away, but supplied us with the most amazing dinner. Brought gravy and yorkshire puds to the table straight from the kitchen. Was very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. We love Maggie 💪
