I have lived in America since the early 1980 with my mum & Dad and 3 sisters..... all my mum has talked about since I can remember is this pub!! Her grandparents owned this pub in the 1930. Her Dads last name was Warner. Vetrry interested in it “ Ivy cottage inn, Bromsgrove, catshill. My Moms mom died when she was 7 and her father put her and her two sisters in an orphanage. This is the only memory she has. | ||

Keith Noble Tontine, Stourport | ||
On a recent visit to Stourport I noticed what appeared to be a pub-like name displayed at the Tontine, on the side facing York Street Basin. I didn't have a chance to investigate further but does the conversion of the hotel to flats incorporate a re-opened pub? | ||

Landlord became hostile when I suggested it might be a good idea to list a few gluten free meals. I was genuinely shocked by his response, it was totally unnecessary, then he didn't say goodbye when I left even though I had. I won't be recommending it to anyone and hope this review encourages people to visit one of the other pubs in the area which are generally very good. | ||

Food was pretty good though. We have been to The Dog before and never experienced this type of service so hope this is a one off. | ||

Worst meal ever. My husband and myself used to frequent this pub regularly for meals but stopped after a poorly cooked meal. After several years we thought we would give it another go.last night we ordered two meals and they were worse than ever.the food was over cooked. All thefood was frozen and over done.i had lamb chopsand they were virtually unrecognisable and the roast potatoes were the frozen type over cooked and two of them discoloured inside and could not be eaten.the basic veg limp strips of carrot and peas were reheated over again.my husbands meal was overcooked and we will not be eating there ever again.its a pity because the staff are really friendly.we paid just under £18 for poor quality pub grub.when clearing our plates we were asked if the meals were ok and we said they were awful at which he said he thought we were joking as people say that for a laugh.we replied that we were being serious.he did not return with an apology! | ||

why o why have you altered your policy re- admitting children under the age of 14. we visited the hollybush last sunday for lunch 14th aug 2011, was we disappointed. young ones running around the dining area no perental control,what is normally a nice relaxing atmosphere we could not vacate the pub quick enough. we frequent the pub at least twice a month over the last 10 years know the staff well and always enjoyed ourselves but if this is your policy for the future there is no way we will be returning. a very dissatisfied customer. | ||

Visited 30/06/11. Quite busy which I took to be a good sign - how wrong I was. Our table for 4 was situated by exit door, constant stream of people walking past and every time door opened we got disinfectant smell from gents toilet. Ordered a glass of rose wine, it was unchilled, altho I was assured it was straight from the fridge. They offered me ice! Main meals when they eventually appeared were a disgrace. I wasnt expecting haute cuisine but food should at least be edible. Chef should be sacked. My chicken in brandy and cream sauce (£13.50) was so dry & tough I could not eat it, veg was tasteless, cold and overcooked, swimmimg in cold cooking water. 1st time I've ever been served brown broccoli! Was offered a replacement meal but by that time I just wanted to leave. Ale & Hearty pie was a small portion cut from a whole pie, not what was expected, sausage yorkshire was very soggy. Only acceptable meal was a burger, altho chips were cold. Manager couldnt offer refund as 2 for 1, offered pudding & coffee which I refused so gave 20% discount & 20% on future meal should we return. Not much danger of that happening I'm not a masochist. | ||

Garth Rudest pub staff I've ever known | ||
Party of four and dog went 2 nights running. First night: good food (except for over-microwaved crumble which was deducted from bill without demur), pleasant service. Second night: took nearly an hour for starters to arrive despite pub being nearly empty. Surly boy in charge (Kevin, claimed to be owner's son) rude and foul-mouthed, wearing filthy bandage on hand - his excuse for serving only one dish at a time. No apologies for rubbish service. Variability in comments on this site appear to be related to different staff on duty, but it seems the landlord and his family are the problem. Pub obviously in decline - the sooner the owners change the better. | ||

After having regularly dined at the Hollybush for over 2 years and generally leaving there feeling satisfied and having had value for money, our most recent visit (12/3/11) was not the best, we were served a Vegetable Lasagne without PASTA.... or a Bechemel Sauce...... Go Figure!!, This was delivered 10 mins after everyone else's meal.. A second meal which was a spicy burger was a cremated burger on a burnt bun with a child sized portion of chips and a chopped salad! We were quite disappointed as we eat regularly at the pub and typically enjoy our visits however on this occasion we left feeling bad and discussing the need to find another place to eat as things seem to be slipping and portion control is poor. On the whole the staff are great but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of after care being I am not after free food but I do expect to get what I pay for and a caring service I would normally rate this pub as a 5 because of its value, care and service however it is only deserving of a 2. I look forward to going again and seeing if it improves. | ||

I have been a regular diner at The Holly bush inn for many years and I am appauled to read such an awful review.The pub displays several very clear signs stating that no children are allowed on the premises under the age of 14!! The staff are always very polite and friendly and if a member of staff reminds you of the honey monster then he must have been very cute and friendly! being !If you have dined there several times then the food cant be as bad as described as why would you waste your money on food time and time again if you dont like it?? Also the manageress Kim has always shown us the upmost respect and creates a very friendly welcome as soon as you walk through the door!!

Quite simply the worst service we have ever received in a pub. Ordered a salad which should be impossible to muck up, but they did! The meal was inedible and when a complaint was made, it was met with total indifference. The young boy behind the bar was rude, ignorant and more concerned with flirting with some young female clients than serving customers. Meals were literally thrown on the table by the aforementioned bar worker who sported a roller up cigarette behind one ear and low slung trousers which paraded his underwear. Grossly disappointed. | ||

My Wife and i have been to the Hlly bush on many occasions for dinner, simply because we can get they in the car without going on public roads, food is very average at best but when you don't feel like cooking it just about does. Any how a new born child later and we have had several meals in the beer garden with our baby fast asleep, no bother. Until the last time, we were served our drinks in the garden and menus and cutlery brought out, went to order food and was told if i was the one with the baby i am to leave now, really rudly by some freak of a bar man who resembled the honey monster. I told him what i thought of him and left. I phoned Kim up to complain and she was extremly rude and ignorant, To be frank the decor is old and stuffy very much like its average punter. food is nothing more than a normal non chef could cook at home and the bar staff are ignorent, attend at your preil, Go to the Winged Spur down the road in Ullenhall, much nicer atmosphere and tadty food also offering decent varied ales. Its a shame the holly bush changed from what it was 10 years ago | ||

When asked for refund, was told to have cofe or cake instead as on two for one she cannot do refund. would you want cake instead of dinner? and just to add to it, it is not about nearly £9 for dried pasta with tomato sauce, it is about customer service.

Dandy Jim Still the best freshly cooked food in Malvern | ||
The following review by Worcester News says it all THERE are two things you can do in Malvern on a beautiful spring Saturday. The first is take a hike up the famous hills. The second is dine al fresco at one of the town’s pubs. After checking out the Red Lion’s sun-dappled terrace, complete with St George’s flags fluttering in the breeze and petals floating down from a tree in full blossom, we chose the latter. And as we relaxed in the sunshine watching walkers huffing past us up the hillside, it seemed a very good decision indeed. Plenty of other people obviously had the same idea, because the terrace was soon full, although the rather dark and bare interior remained virtually empty. Starters arrived promptly. Deep-fried brie (£4.99) was as good as it gets, with the hot cheese oozing out of a crispy crust. Homemade mushroom soup (£4.50) looked a little thin at first sight – until you plunged your spoon a little deeper and discovered the mountains of succulent mushrooms piled high beneath the surface. The result was just what a soup starter should be – satisfying enough to take the edge off your appetite and get your tastebuds humming, but not so rich or hearty that it overwhelmed the main course. Which was just as well, because the salmon and prawn fish cakes (£9.99) were an absolute joy. Bursting with fishy flavour, they were complemented perfectly by a rich basil sauce. However, the fish cakes’ vegetarian equivalent (£8.99), ordered by my companion, were less successful. They appeared to be much the same recipe without the fish, which seemed to leave little apart from potato and peppers. The result was rather bland, despite the efforts of the accompanying salsa – also heavy on the peppers – to sex them up. Desserts, a ‘trio of ice cream flavours’ and chocolate fudge cake (both £3.95), were real crowdpleasers and just the thing to round off a largely satisfying meal. The Red Lion bills itself as Malvern’s “number one food pub”. I suspect there are places in the town where you can get food that’s at least as good, and perhaps cheaper, too. However, this quirky pub, wedged into the hillside beside the headquarters of the British Society of Dowsers (this is hippie Malvern, after all) is certainly a pleasant place to spend an April afternoon. HOW IT RATED The Red Lion, 4 St Anne’s Road, Malvern Telephone: 01684 564787 Food ★★★✩✩ Value for money ★★★✩✩ Ambience ★★★✩✩ Service ★★★✩✩ | ||

Colin Andrews Welcome? What welcome? | ||
Wanting a canalside drink on Easter Monday we travelled out to the Eagle and Sun after seeing their web site proclaiming their warm welcome. When we arrived, at about 8pm, there were a few people at tables round the pub eating, but all the other tables were empty, laid up with place mats and cutlery, but had 'reserved' signs on - were they expecting several coaches of customers to arrive? We went to the bar to order drinks and asked if all tables were really reserved - we were told in a very short manner that we could sit at table 5!! Not my idea of a warm welcome!! Certainly no encouragement for people just wishing to enjoy a drink in a pleasant environment. And the beer was pretty awful to boot. Maybe the carvery food is good - though i suspect that on that evening the meat and vegetables had been left out and uncovered longer than was good or healthy for them - but to my mind, to remain successful public houses need to actively encourage drinkers too, and the Eagle and Sun did not do that. | ||

Sam very disappointing | ||
Over inflated prices for what is essentially average pub grub - how ever they dress it up. 'Chips' - re heated. 'Caramlised veg cakes' - potato cakes with cucumber and tomato bits thrown in. 'Bruschetta'- cheese on toast with zero finesse. 'sauce' - blatantly out of a jar Wait - 35 mins for starter - main 5 seconds after eaten starter and microwaved to insane temperature Some of staff - monosyllabic. Had i been paying pub prices, it would have been acceptable - but they market themselves as much more and do not come up with the goods. Am not convinced the 'chef' wasn't a monkey with wooden spoon. May pop back for a warming drink and to use the loo when hell freezes over. | ||

Lionel Parkes Gone down hill a long way since last year | ||
I was part of a party of 5 returning for the 2nd year running for our Xmas meal, what a disappointment compared to last year, the starter of prawn cocktails was a very meagre portion with the prawn cocktail sauce completely missing, served with 2 slices of brown bread with no butter supplied, the main meal was marginally better, but every on complained that the pigs in blankets were not cooked and the bacon was semi raw, a bit of cranberry sauce would have been nice with the turkey. I couldn't fault the sweet of Xmas pudding, then we were left sitting there while tables were being cleared, we were never asked if anyone wanted cheese and biscuits, or a cup of coffee, so I had to ask the waitress for them, when it came what a disgrace compared to last year, It was served up on a dinner plate with all the cheeses mixed up one on top of another, no small plates or cutlery where offered until I asked for them, the coffees were then served or actually just cups placed on the table with out any saucers or spoons for the sugar, which I had to request once again. and at £40.00 a head no one even asked if our meal was OK, needless to say we will be looking elsewhere next year for our Xmas meal. | ||

How nice it would have been to have been able to recommend this hostelry; to support these young people in their business venture, but this dishonest behaviour has prevented me doing so. | ||

a little over priced; 2 for 1 really isn't two for one: balti approx. £13.99 - I have never been anywhere, even the high end balti houses who charge this much, Chicken £14.99. Drinks - 3 soft drinks came in at over £9.00. Food Ok, very quick in about 10 minutes which leads me to believe it is microwaved, nothing special for the prices. Two For One is not theoretically correct as they have increased the prices of standard meals two-fold to allow for this 'offer'. | ||

Caroline and Nick Cassell bought The Crown Inn 2 years ago from Richard Everton. We have made the Pub much more friendly and welcoming. The food is of the highest quality using local produce where possible. We are family friendly and, being a country pub, animal friendly. Come and visit | ||

P Dutton DANGER , DO NOT VISIT | ||
THE SERVICE IN THIS PUB IS A DISGRACE - please read on. Reserved a table at this pub for my wifes birthday. 2pm Sunday, arrived as a patry of 6 including two children 5, 7yrs. The pub was quiet but we had to wait 1hr 20 mins for our meals.After an hour I asked for the childrens meals (pasta and a chicken burger) to be brought out as soon as poss as they were very hungry. The childrens meals appeared last with no apology. Followed by a 1/2 hr wait for puddings which came as the wrong order 10 minutes apart, again no apology. On leaving the pub I said thank you to the bar manageress who completely ignored me and my family although we hadn't complained all day. Ruined our birthday meal, we will never visit this pub again, I advise you to do the same. | ||

The hollybush is one of my favorite places to dine, wether it be for a quiet meal mid-week, or for a fun night out with my husband friends on a weekend, the atmosphere is great and the staff are all very kind and considerate. It is well organised and the meals are always delightful and served promptly. It is a refreshing change to visit a nice country pub where screaming children do not ruin the evening. Welll done hollybush, keep up the good work!!! | ||

It is a shame that some people cant accept the fact that no one is infaluable, that mistakes do happen and i believe is unfair to pin point criticism based on one visit! i have been to the Hollybush many times with many different friends and family and have had a very pleasurable meal with the thanks to the very friendly staff who made a constent effort to forfill are requests. In the last eighteen months a new manageress, Kim Ryland has seemed to have made many changes for the better so maybe The Hollybush Inn warrants another visit! As for the no children policy displayed on both entrance doors are signs clearly stating NO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FOURTEEN!!!!!!! HOw much more clearer do they need to be???? On every occasion when we have even booked we have always been told prior to this that the policy is in action! It is nice to go out for a meal at a place where all the staff have smiling faces and take time to greet and get to know their regulars like myself! | ||

J. Hubbard Fantastic pub | ||
I went to the hollybush last week for a meal with my fiance and found it a great place to eat. The whole atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the open fires made it really homely. The staff were helpful and accomodating and all friendly. The meals were lovely proper homemade dishes and they were cooked to perfection. When we booked our table we were told no children were allowed and It was great not having children disturbing the meal. Overall i would recommend the hollybush to anyone, we had a lovely night out. | ||

WC Day A mean-spirited experience | ||
We had a couple of pleasant meals in this pub during the summer with our children and dog, but popping in for a Christmas drink proved to be an unpleasant experience. The landlord was very rude about us mistakenly entering his pub with children and a dog, saying that I probably couldn't read the sign on the door saying they were banned. Don't expect a warm welcome. | ||

Richard Jukes My visit was fine!! | ||
Dined in the Mitre Oak Sunday 26th November 2006. It was my mothers 70th birthday. We had booked a table for 5 adults and 5 children for 1500 hrs. The table was ready and waiting on time, and a nice position in a bay window. This pub is nicely decorated and there is no smell of smoke. It is also very roomy and the tables are a good distance apart. We ordered 10 main courses, and a few side dishes followed by 10 desserts. The order was 100 percent accurate, and we were given complementary nachos for the kids whilst we waited for the main courses, even though there wasn't a delay. The food was excellent, and the service polite and not pushy, the table was cleared promptly between courses. Considering most of the children ordered off the adult menu, which has a fantastic choice I might add, the bill worked out a £17 a head which included 3 rounds of drinks. I personally find this pretty good value all in all. I would recommend the Mitre Oak for this sort of meal, and will certainly return myself. | ||

Steve Parker Avoid this pub | ||
My family and I stopped at this pub on Saturday 11th November at 5.30pm for an early dinner before pub got busy. There was about a dozen people in the bar but only a family of 4 in the dining area. We were told by a waitress that the table we sat at was reserved so we asked where we could sit instead. Her reply was that we needed to book because there was more than 8 of us (there were 5 adults, 2 children and 1 baby!) THE BARMAN THEN ADDED THAT IF WE DIDN'T LIKE IT, WE KNEW WHERE THE DOOR WAS. This was my fathers birthday and we thought that the Mitre Oak would be a good place to meet as it was central between Cheltenham and Shrewsbury. Readers please be aware that the staff at this pub do not value your business and will not make you feel welcome. I have not complained directly to Mitre Oak because I really don't think they will take any notice. What a shame that such an attractive exterior hides such terrible service. I have managed pubs and hotels for the same company for nearly 20 years and can only think that the Mitre Oak must have lots of passing trade because very few customers would return???. I can however recommend the Watermill in Kidderminster, great staff and good value food ( with £77 extra in till) | ||

Alan Rodgers Best View from a Pub garden ever!!!! | ||
Since a management change in 2005, the new landord and wife have made every effort to build up the customer base. The much improved garden terrace boasts an excellent view of the welsh side of the Malverns. The choice of beers is minimal but a good choice nervertheless featuring a very well kept Burton Best bitter. The cosy bar makes the winter period attractive when time out in the garden is limited. | ||

Having visited the Nags head at least weekly for the last 3 years, it continues to amaze me how they can sustain excellent service across the bar and in the restaurant for such a period. The choice of beers and quality of food is often referred to positvely, but what about the time it takes to get served?? I cannot remember having to wait any longer than seconds for my pint, even when they are busy. Keep it up Nags!!!1 | ||

It's still good; excellent range of beers and good food. I recommend it to all my friends out of county and they buy drinks for me there ! As nothing is really important, go to the Nag's Head to find the 'essential' English pub; you owe it to yourself; it's your heritage. | ||

O Smith Very Disappointing | ||
I frequented the Nags Head for several years before spending a year overseas; on my return earlier this year, one of the things I was most looking forward to was a night in the Nags with my friends. Whilst the Shropshire Lad was as good as I remembered, the pub was much quieter than it used to be on Saturday nights and had lost some of its lively and friendly atmosphere. At the end of the night, the new manager swanned over to our group and rather curtly asked us to drink up and leave. She did enquire as whether we'd had a good evening, but in an offhand manner. We said that it was much quieter, and not as good as it used to be. After she tried to negate our comments with her claims that takings were up 25% year-on-year, the discussion became increasingly unpleasant and I departed feeling an otherwise pleasant evening had been spoiled by one self-obsessed individual. I won't be going back until I hear of a change of management, and therefore sadly can't recommend this pub to anyone at the moment. | ||

I have recentley visited The Nags Head, after reading an article in the local newspaper and i must say the artical was true to it's word. Upon my arrival i was greated by a very polite young man, when i asked about the real ales i was offered a fantastic choice and asked if i would like to taste any (great touch). I wondered down to the restaurant to have a look at the menu for future reference and again found very friendly staff. I have since returned on a number of occassions and had a fantastic meal, What a find, great beer, fantastic food, excellent service. | ||

As recommended in 'The Times' newspaper the Nags Head is a traditional, quirky and original pub. The gardens are beautiful the food is great and the staff are lovely. It has a fantastic range of real ales some of which change every day. It supports small local independent breweries.So if you are fed up with 'corporate' pubs give it a try. Life is too short to waste time in boring pubs. | ||

From 1959 to 1969 this was my favourit pub. As a member of the Redditch cricket club, we virtually took the place over at weekends, standing shoulder to shoulder having the time of our lives Hosts then were Carol and David who joined in the fun with the rest of us. Great memories which unfortunately ended when I went to live in Australia. They don't have pubs like the Woodland over here. Hope it still has the same wonderful atmosphere. | ||

Amanda Harvey Awful sevices and decietful tricks - check your bi | ||
Please check your bill there are decietful ticks being played at this pub and they are getting away with it because the general public are too polite to question their blls. On visiting this pub for an evening meal with my dad, on ordering our meals and discovering they had run out of what my dad had ordered they guy serving us decided not to tell us but instead bring my dad something similar with my meal and said they had cooked the wrong meal. My father then asked them if he could have the meal he ordered. They guy serving us then returned from the kitchen to say that they had run out and then tried to pressurise my dad into taking the meal they had cooked instead. My father stated he didnt like what they had cooked and ordered a steak instead. The guy then disappeared, leaving my meal behind. I then had to ask if they would keep my meal warm as we wanted to dine together. To add insult to injury the meal was awful but that is far from the worse part of this evening. On coming to pay our bill we had been greatly overcharged. on questioning the bill the guy who served us bekoned us to the bar. He tried to insist that I had ordered 7 glasses of wine, he then realised that I had ordered 1 white wine spritzer. He then insisted that this had been a large glass of wine ( it was a small glass ) and charged us £3.60 for just the wine. He then said he had supposidly removed the £24.50 overcharge from the bill. I then asked if we could have a discount for the inconvienance we had experienced. He then said he had taken all our drinks off the bill but charged us £40.00 all the same I then noticed we had also been charged for the meal that they had decided to cook for us this was £8.95, the guy then shouted at me saying he had left the lamb on because he had taken off the drinks but he could leave the drinks on and deduct the lamb. I then asked for a calculator, he then started talking to me as though I was stupid and practically chucked the calculator at me . As I was toting up the bill which was £37.00 the guy changed the price on the till to £36.00. Therefore we paid for all of our drinks and our food and managed to get a £1.00 off (although later I found that we had still been overcharged). The guy seving us was not only rude and decietfull he then started to huff and puff and moan about his awful night and job. However, after paying I found that we had still been overcharged by £2.00 on our starters and on the glass of wine which was a small. Please dont read this and think I was trying to get out of paying that is not the case I dont mind paying for what I have recieved and apology would have been far better than money off but I strongly dislike being subjected to poor service and then being ripped off for the awful pleasure. Therefore please do not eat here and if you have to check your bill and double check your bill !!! The Chineese resturant down the road is 500 times better !!!!! | ||

My family consists of 6. After visiting Tesco and buying enough food that would match that offered by the Carvery at Eagle and Sun in Droitwich, cooking it etc. We spent £51. The fod at the Eagle and Sun is the best food I have ever tasted, the plates are not small, the beer is good, the drinks are not over priced, there is a good selection and the atmosphere is great. We had a lovely meal - got full up and had a round of drinks, for less than £25. After being totally satisfied, we enjoyed a relaxing drink by the canal ! 10/10. | ||

An Nonymous Going down | ||
The Watermill has had a fare number of managers over the last few years all of whom have been in their early 20's and do not seem to realise the complexities of running a large public house. The current staff seem to use the pub as a personal drinking hole and customers of whatever time of the day always loose out. Certain memebers of bars staff also appear to lack in the personal hygiene front. the toilets are amess and always leak. The beer is warm and over priced. The Site has a prime location with excellent opportunity to be a well run pub catering for all ages and being very profitable if managed correctly. Please improve so that Weatherspoons do not take over!!! and brink back proper beer!!!!!! | ||

David Emmins A proper pub. | ||
The scenery surrounding Malvern is absolutely breath taking and The Nags Head is equally impressive. The food was excellent and the pub has really good selection of real ales. Some local and others like Sharp's Doombar from Cornwall made up an impressive range. The pint of Doombar was in wonderful condition and was the icing on the cake. | ||

Des Watson A change for the worse! | ||
oh no - the pub has changed hands over christmas and oh my god it's awful ! What a change ! Cut right back on everything - service that was great is now non-existant with a sour faced old hag of a waitress, no carvery in the week, smaller portions, need I say more ? Sorry but it used to be great and our first choice for a night out before but now it's one to avoid, there are much better pubs in the area. | ||

I went to the Hollybush for my birthday meal. We had halibut for a starter as a treat(it was down as main course) Has anyone ever tried tough fish, well go to the Hollybush they excel at it. The halibut was inedible, we sent it back and asked for tomato soup. you cant go wrong with tomato soup can you. The hollybush can. It was tasteless closest thing to dishwater I can think of. We paid our drinks bill and left. We will not be coming back. | ||

Heather Love What a poor experience | ||
I'm afraid that this is the worst pub I have been to for a long time. The food and customer service was terrible. The whole ambience was that of a canteen with a poor quality, pile it high and sell it cheap philosophy. Upon complaining about the sirloin steak that I was given, which was not fresh and of a very poor, I was told by the waitress that the chef said that there was nothing wrong with the steak and that they only use good quality butchers. This steak was just good enough to give a dog. Whilst sitting awaiting to see what their customer service would be like, 3 other meals were sent back by different parties. I rest my case. However, I was offered a dessert or a cup off coffee on the house; I don't eat desserts and didn't want a coffee. When I asked for my bill nothing had been deducted and when I asked for one, at least just offer us the two glasses of wine on the house, we were told that they couldn't do that as they had separate tills for catering and bar. In the end I managed to get a £2.50 reduction as I couldn't really be bothered to negotiate any further. Please, please do not expect a good quality meal and customer service at the Hollybush. Only go if you don't mind the pile it high sell it cheap approach. I would just love to give them some training on customer service, style and what is considered to be good quality food. | ||

Overpriced, exeptionally poor quality food. Why bother?Go hungry, that's what I say. We ordered 2 soups and what was given looked like 2 cupasoups with v little liquid. YUK!!!! The rest of the food was equally disappointing, pastry like rolled grease, sausages at £3a piece. | ||

H. Teganshaw Disappointing really..... | ||
The pub is ok, nothing special. There is a rear beer garden, which is NEVER open. It has been closed off. It doesnt hold many activities in the summer (ie bbq's, pig roasts etc) There is a kareoke very Friday fortnightly, which is repetitive. Children are not allowed in (even though they do manage to still get in) A pleasant atmosphere and the locals are friendly. All it needs is a beer garden, a lick of paint and a new gaffer. | ||

Jon Clarke Hollybush - a reply | ||
Unacceptable for adam berry and family to have been treated this way and yes, you should have been warned when booking.... however, the hollybush is a cracking little unpretentious pub and it is the strict no children rule that is one of it's main attractions. I and friends have been using the place for years and the staff have always been friendly and helpful. The food is straightforward and very good value. The beer menu was very limited but is getting better. Wine list a bit restricted. Overall, an excellent place if you want a no-nonsense - quiet - meal out. | ||

Disappointed diners Not as fresh as you might think | ||
Manager confirmed when queried that Fresh vegetables includes some which are actually Frozen, although he describes these as Fresh Frozen whatever that means. Also the veg that was served was poorly cooked and the choice of meat was limited as Turkey was still in the Oven!! Not good for a Saturday Night out. Other issues over Dietary information which I won't go into here. | ||

adam berry Worst customer service ever experienced. | ||
I experienced the worst ever example of customer service that I have ever seen at this pub. I made a reservation for a party of 15. Only when we arrived we were told that no children were allowed (this was a meal to celebrate a grandmother's birthday, and her 7 year old granddaughter was the only child there). No mention of this policy was made when making the booking, no apology was forthcoming, there was no attempt to assist with making other arrangements, or making an exception in this instance, the staff were rude and arrogant and while we were standing there, and without consulting us, they removed the 'reserved' markers from the tables and started seating people at our tables. The seven year old girl in question was in floods of tears because she thought it was her fault, her mother was also crying. The management of this pub ruined what should have been a celebration and I could in no way recommend their services. I believe the food is supposed to be good but their treatment of customers is the worst I have seen for any service and in any country. Please avoid at all costs. | ||
