A fabulous local pub. Yeah it's in Bearwood, which has its downside, but this pub has no downside. The food is delicious, and well priced. The drinks are great, and the service has been fantastic each time. Great job to everyone working there!

Realised I have not yet left a review for The Bear! This is a nice place to come for food, drinks and just relax. When working from home often causes a need to escape the house, can always find plug sockets for laptops, phones etc and the WiFi is spot on too for everything could possibly need. WiFi - 55.6Mbps download / 42.1Mbps upload speed according to Speedtest for my visit today at around 5pm. Drinks - Always served cold and fresh. Even when gets busy, do not have to wait long at the bar. When working and need to crack on - the app ordering is perfect too. No problems at all! Food - Spot on. I tend to go for the "Chick N Mix" for £8.79! Check the photo, its great. Lots of food, hot, fresh and tasty. Highly recommended! Staff - Thank you everyone here for your great service, it really is appreciated to be able to have a friendly chat when often come solo. From the warm welcome at the bar, and to bringing the orders to the table is fantastic, will keep returning for as long as continues! Atmosphere - Its a local sort of pub, but welcoming of everyone. Music as just the right level, pool tables, poker tables on some nights and quiz. A Gem of Bearwood! Only one suggestion for improvement... There is a lot vandalism on the wall in the gents toilets.... How about paint the section in front of the urinals with chalk board paint, and leave some chalks to use on it? Would cost very little and solve the graffiti by "allowing" it. Just a thought, a banter wall - hope you consider it :) Interesting point to note for those local and not... look up at the clock on the top. Only when doing this review today I noticed that there are bears all around it. The things you miss for all the years living around here until come to look closely. Conclusion: Highly recommend this place to anyone for drinks and food! 5* all round.

After shopping in Bearwood its always off to the Bear Tavern for food and drinks. Food always on point (sorry forgot to take a picture). Was served by Tara she is the best. Always got a smile on her face and very pleasant nothing is too much trouble.

Absolutely loverly breakfast cooked to perfection, great value and brilliant service. Everything was perfect literally!! Never had a bad meal in the place, the chefs are always on point. Thank you and heavily recommend this place for food and chilling!!
