We were welcomed on arrival and taken to our seats. Drinks and menus arrived swiftly and we ordered then sat back to enjoy our drinks. The food arrived in an acceptable time, was hot and very tasty. All in all a good time and the pleasant serving staff made our evening very enjoyable.

This pretty, beamed, gastro pub is fabulous. A warm and welcoming staff are very attentive. The food is amongst the BEST I have eaten anywhere and I eat out a lot. I don't know who the head chef is, but the food is so good, the presentation is so pretty, and the depth of flavours and textures in my dish was outstanding. I could not believe the bill for such a wonderful evening, it was a happy surprise to be able to enjoy splendid food at such competitive prices.

Very friendly pleasant ambiance. Service professional. Thoroughly enjoyable experience. In other words good food, friendly staff nice place ! The only thing I would change is the booking process,we managed to book a table for 5, had to leave an additional message about 2 dogs in the party but this never got through to the bar staff so a bit of fast pace movement of table occupation. We ate in the bar, not the dog friendly area of dining room. No problem. Highly recommended.

The staff were so friendly and the bar staff knew their cider. I wish they sold their glasses as they were really pretty. I appreciated the opportunity to “try before you buy” on the new to me flavours of cider. The meal and drink were a nice end to a circular walk round the lakes and back.

We stopped here overnight through Brit Stops on our way to the Camping and Caravan show at the NEC. The booking was easy over the phone, and the food, service and atmosphere was brilliant. We had such a peaceful night we overslept the time we wanted to leave, but when you're somewhere as lovely as this it really doesn't matter. We will definitely be going here again.

Brilliant pub with views of the canal, amazing food and drink. The way the carvery is done is better than other places and saves it from becoming a free for all (Efficient ensuring there is enough for everyone). You pick what two meats you want and you tell them what veg you want but you get to pour your own gravy which is how it should be done 👍 Been going for years and the staff and overall atmosphere is spot on. On a nice sunny day you’ll see some fine motors and bikes to admire whilst having a nice cold pint. Only sad thing is that the park for the kids was removed many moons ago.

Great overnight stay for us in our campervan. Views of the canal, warm and friendly staff. A great choice of menu, had dinner and breakfast there. Very reasonably priced and very good sized portions. Loved it there

I came here because visiting family, prebooked our table as it's very popular on Sundays. Carvery style sunday roast where you pay just before you get your food served at the hot plate. £6.50 for under 8 year olds, £11.50 for small plate and £15.50 for large plate. Bare in mind, during the busiest times, it can get very noisy. But the service was efficient but not as friendly as expected. The quality of the food is good and great value for money. Good choice of vegetables and condiments available. Traditional pub decor, quite simple. Would recommend it.

The location is only a 20 min drive from the NEC which was great. Only thing is fighting the motorway to get too and from! Jade who was on reception a few times throughout our stay was lovely! Very polite and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. We were witness to her dealing with difficult customers, she was very polite and understanding and patient despite the fact the customers were rude and obnoxious! The room was clean and lovely staff!

Second time we've stayed here. Price was brilliant, staff were very friendly and helpful. Charlotte 'staff member' at breakfast was rushed off her feet, but was also brilliant. Hats off to Charlotte. Don't think I've ever had a bad stay at any premier inn. For what you pay, it's very decent

Stayed here for a family get together for Christmas. Perfect service by Tracy on the bar and in the restaurant. Checked in by Billie on reception. Zoe was delighted at breakfast service. Everyone we encountered was brilliant and so friendly with the children. Right on my doorstep would definitely be back soon.

The Red Lion is a cosy local pub with a lovely welcoming atmosphere 🤍 The staff here are so attentive, Sean & Charlotte are always working hard and serving with a smile! They’re a pleasure to see everytime. The menu offers a variety of different dishes, changing seasonally, from their perfectly cooked minute steak at lunch to their hearty pie of the day in the evening served with a generous side of chips and seasonal vegetables. Recently I tried their steak and ale pie of the day (unfortunately didn’t take a photo of this one) - certainly one of the best I’ve had, as good as Lowsonford’s Fleur De Lys. After a stroll around Earlswood Lakes, their hot chocolate hits the spot perfectly - it's become my go-to comfort stop after a winter walk ☺️ If you're looking for some midweek entertainment, their Wednesday evening quiz is a must. It's the perfect excuse to gather friends for a fun night out - good food, drinks, and friendly competition. The Red Lion delivers every time. It's exactly what a local pub should be! 😊🥂🍻☕️

A really lovely, cosy dog friendly pub right next to the lakes. A perfect place for a stop off after a walk with easy parking just across the road and an amazing roast dinner on Sunday. The garden is also a perfect sun trap

We had sea bass filets and the signature burger, both were amazing. Perfectly flavoured and good portion size. Squash and cauliflower soup of the day was just the thing we needed on a cold Sunday afternoon. Would definitely come back.

Two couples 50+ went for lunch. Was asked if we'd booked as they were fully booked, we had. Upon not being able to find our reservation, it turns out that we'd booked it for the following day (DOH!). However, they were nice enough to seat us regardless and we all had the 2 or 3 course set menu. They made one small error in the order which they offered to correct. Service was good and we had zero complaints about the quality of the food. With 5 drinks, we paid £83 in total.

Nice pub restaurant, but can get very busy. Food isn't cheap but its certainly not prohibitively expensive either. Importantly though, it was very tasty. Parking can be quite hard when busy too. Will definitely visit again. I'd 100% recommend booking ahead though. Dog friendly outside on patio area.

I have been coming here for a month as I work in the area. This coffee shop has a lovely atmosphere, great music choice and amazing coffee. Couldn’t ask for anything better. The staff began recognising me and knew my order right away. They always ask me how I’m doing and want to know what’s going on. Such a lovely coffee shop, I will definitely be coming back here more. Haven’t had food here but have seen the plates of other peoples food and looks really good. 10/10 customer service, 10/10 coffee, and 10/10 coffee shop overall. I love this place.

This is my favourite place but today it was very cold, so I couldn't stay very long. (Also a bit too noisy, but the place is small, so it's difficult to control the acoustics, I understand) The food selection is great and they're always very friendly and since I regularly ask for ingredient combinations which are not on the menu, they're always happy to do it. Also I love the big corner windows - when it's sunny this is the best/only place where you get so much sun coming through to the inside. Overall - my favourite place to have a drink or a bite, and work on my laptop in Moseley and King's Heath!

The chicken sandwich here is really nice! Other food selection looks good too. Need to try some milkshakes. Their opening hours are long, which is useful. Music sometimes played a lil loud and limited seating quite close together. Nice local place.

They have multiple rooms, the main restaurant is quite limited, and bookings are highly recommended it. There is plenty of parking across the street. The staff is friendly and helpful. Foodwise, this is a pub, not a fancy restaurant. Some dishes are ok, some dishes are good. The pizza was quite interesting and I recommend you try it. The burger was quite dry, the meat was a bit burned and dry, having a bit of burnt bitter taste, but overall ok. I recommend you to tell them to be careful not to burn it. Beautiful design, nice atmosphere. I recommend it.

Great pub, popular all year round. Great variety of menu with excellent choice of dishes. Ate here a few times. Super beer garden, just perfect to chill. Split across two buildings, one is a main restaurant and bar with another more a traditional pub. Large surgery car park opposite so no issue with parking. Veg platter for starters was great selection. Everything we had was good.

Been here a few times and the pub/restaurant areas area great. Superb atmosphere and a nicely done building. We went for Christmas lunch so was a special occasion. The service was superb. The meal itself was mediocre. At £100 per head (£55 for children) I would have expected better. Value for money for sheer volume was great, but I'd have rather had better quality over quantity. My beef dinner was overcooked, veggies was ok, roast potatoes were poor. Puddings were delicious. Cheese selection, it is Christmas after all, was rubbish, far too much for the 9 people (inc 3 children) two huge plates worth, flavourless and dull, and accompanied by about 2 crackers per head. I really like the idea of Christmas lunch out, and would definitely do it again, however I could have done a better roast with trimmings at home.

We were feeling hangry after looking at tiles and this was the closest place that came up…. So happy to have found it! We were served by the Bing, who radiates £ Happiness and the food by chefs Mo and Mr T was delicious. There is a small activity area for kids which kept them entertained. Carvery was fresh and cooked really well - best veggie roast I’ve had out in a while - and this was before my veggie main bit came! We were so full we needed up having to box up our dessert and pie - the staff were helpful with this and it was no problem at all. A really friendly, welcoming atmosphere - I would highly recommend this place for a lovely Sunday roast and will be bring the rest of my family back soon!

Came for lunch for my dad's birthday, and the food was lovely. I had the beef and it was like butter. We were served by Bing, who couldn't do enough for us, or anyone else, flying around busy and making sure everyone is okay. Hats off to the chef Shaun, all the food was amazing! Very happy with our visit!

Adam@RCH has done a fantastic job supporting us through a large house renovation. Other electricians provided me a quote for a new fuseboard without considering the state of the existing one, by providing an EICR healthcheck, RCH were able to ensure that any previous, hidden issues were captured before proceeding with any work. Following the EICR check, Adam created a customised plan with 2 logical and economical options to resolve the issues, that included the additions we required (such as fire alarms, additional sockets, flood lights, extractor fans and an electric shower) Their onsite engineers have been polite, professional and courteous. Good service, would use again.
