Cafe in Bromsgrove

“lovely café, nice atmosphere, rich sandwiched, quick and fresh. really nice café. the garden centre is very much for gardeners lots of beautiful plants, not so much variety in gift shop...”

“Came for the carvery and was not disappointed! Food was lovely and the staff were very welcoming and attentive. The atmosphere was comfortable and the place was very clean. The pricing is spot on. 10/10, have already recommended to friends and family”

“Amazing food! Very quick and attentive service, we had kids and a vegetarian at the table and there was menus for both with lots of options! Lovely atmosphere and the staff are so lovely!”

“Terrific carvery and a good range of meals on the menu to suit everyone. We have eaten here for both lunchtimes and evening meals and the carvery is superb. Very friendly and helpful staff. There is a large car park on site, but evenings can get busy. They do accept reservations, and you will be safer to secure your reservation to guarantee a table.”

“Went here for the second time the other day and had a lovely experience. Staff are all really friendly and attentive, great atmosphere and a well run family business. There's a good variety on the menu and portion sizes are generous. Service was spot on, we didnt feel rushed and equally we weren't left waiting too long. We were a party of four and everyone really enjoyed their food. The pork belly starter was amazing and the steak skewers were also a real hit. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, and I'd rather spend money at small, one off businesses like this, rather than at big food chains. You're doing a great job and we'll be back!”

“Found this hidden gem on a friend's recommendation, and despite its location, it totally exceeded my expectations! The breakfast here is fantastic - hearty and satisfying without being greasy like typical breakfast spots. The staff were really welcoming, though the atmosphere that day was a bit mixed due to some grumpy fellow diners - but hey, that's not the restaurant's fault! Great value and quality food - this place has definitely earned a spot on my regular breakfast rotation!”

“We attended my grandsons 1st birthday party there . The room was a great venue to hold such an event , there was a small soft play area for toddlers and babies with plenty of seating for parents . We brought a play tunnel and tent to add to the equipment and we decorated the venue with balloons and added themed touches around the room . The bar was well stocked and the service was friendly . We provided our own buffet style food for the guests and they brought their own drinks , so we can't comment on the pubs own food. The pub is not far from surrounding towns and a nice drive out . A great venue to hold a private event or to just pop in for a drink or two .”

“A very warm welcome from staff. Very busy but great atmosphere. Served by Lauren, who was courteous, friendly and efficient, with great customer skills. Nothing was too much trouble. She's a credit to the establishment. Food was served timely, presented well and was delicious, with attention to detail. It was a family birthday celebration, enhanced by a candle on the birthday girl's dessert. All in all, a great experience.”

“I had an amazing experience at this pub! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were fantastic—special shoutout to Lauren, who was incredibly friendly and made sure we were well looked after throughout our visit. The food was delicious, the drinks were great. Highly recommended!”

“Wonderful! Good selection of local.and national real ale on cask and keg, tasty lager and two fridges full of wonderful ciders. Fair prices and good atmosphere. Live music occasionally.”

“Second time here and each times it’s been great. Everyone of the staff is so friendly, helpful, and always serving with a smile. Food is class and great tasting food. Will be going back many more times!! Also got 4 pieces of focaccia, that whipped pork fat butter is insane!! 3 starters, 3 roasts, side of cauliflower cheese, half a pint of beer, pint of Coke Zero, and a gin and tonic with tap water was £125.”

“Great little pub with great live acts on. Legend were performing, the atmosphere was great, everyone was having a great time. Must visit this venue again for another grest night of live entertainment.”

“Stopped by Ye Olde Black Cross in Bromsgrove and had a genuinely lovely experience. A big shout-out to Blayk, who was behind the bar—his enthusiasm, friendliness, and great energy really stood out. He made everyone feel welcome and engaged brilliantly with both myself and other customers. The pub itself has a warm and friendly atmosphere, decent food, and a fantastic historic touch—a glass-covered well dating back to 1640, which is a really cool feature you don’t see every day. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area—especially if Blayk’s working!”

“Mya provided outstanding service during our Sunday roast, friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience enjoyable!”

“It's a great pub to meet friends in (no loud music, plenty of places to sit etc) They don't really do food beyond eg baps and chips.”

“Fantastic Sunday roast. Huge portions, tender beef, all the sides full of flavour- we will be back!”

“What a fantastic pub, the landlord is a handsome devil too. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and most importantly great prices.”

“Friendly staff, one of the best coffee I had in a Starbucks”

“Very cosy setting with lovely staff and customers ✨ I come in every couple of months when I want a chill evening with a cocktail and catch up. I hear all the events are good as well and can imagine it can have a great party vibe as well! Very aesthetic and stunning in the evenings, always keep missing the food but will update once tried as the menu looks great”

“Well, what can I say? From the second we entered we were made to feel like regulars and friends by a fantastic young man. He recommended the seating to be comfortable because i am disabled and a real ale which was delicious. The food was amazing. Piping hot and great quality. I had the sea bass which was beautiful and came with 2 generous fillets and a king prawn sauce with loads of whole prawns in it! My brother in law and my sister had pork belly and 10oz rib eye. He said his was best pork he had ever had and my sis was over the moon with her steak although it was very slighty over medium, which she ordered but it wasnt an issue. All the veg was to die for, fresh and al dente with good bite. We chose the Swallows from a quick google dive for Pauls birthday and were so glad we did. Yes, it is a little more on the pricey side for us but in my book worth every penny especially for a treat. So a big thank you to the amazing staff and we will return.”

“Brilliant little caffe. Food is very delicious, freshly cooked to order. Had English breakfast, which is served all day, in case you wake up late.”

“Omg when I say this place is a must for there food I’m not lying the chef Sean’s food is to die for we came in a week or so ago and ordered the gluten free curry and my mother had the chicken and mushroom pie when I say it was absolutely delicious I even told the barmaid to tell the chef for the 2nd time how Fantastic it was after the barmaid took our plates I stayed a little longer had another drink and as I was leaving. I saw the Sean the chef come out the kitchen and i told him again how lovely his food was I came back last week and was greeted by the exact same barmaid who served us prior to my last visit but this time I brought my 2 friends from Shropshire to try his food but unfortunately the kitchen was closed upon arrival as I came a little late in all honesty but we still stayed for drinks and told the lovely barmaid we will bring them back again soon to try his food I didn’t get the barmaids name but she had lots of tattoos very cheerful I’ll be back again soon for another visit”

“Great pints, friendly atmosphere. Could be are beautiful, man!”

“Lovely pub and lovely Sunday roast as well. Portions are good and service is great”

“I come in every Friday with my dear friend. We have been consistently greeted well and our drinks are always to a top standard. A worker, Sam is always very polite and he always greets us with a smile. Another worker, Thia is also fast and efficient in making our drinks and they always make for an enjoyable experience.”

“I have never had such amazing service from a company until today ! Frankie was amazing very prompt and professional will definitely be seeing us again !!”

“Unbelievable staff - put the extra in extraordinary!!”

“First time visiting the area. Amazing little pub, couldn't ask for a better more friendly service. Food was delicious and staff were top rate. Would highly recommend.”

“Excellent little cafe. We used a voucher for a cream tea and it was amazing! Different way of presenting the sandwiches and cakes on a little beer garden bench loved it.”
