The 30 Best Bar pub in Coventry

“Best pub in Rugby. Great choice of beers and ciders and very well kept. Friendly and cheerful bar staff. The landlords Lisa and Graham definitely know how to run a pub.”

“I have a wonderful time at Quigley's, every time. The cozy atmosphere and beautiful garden seating is made for a great, chill evening. The outdoor area is charmingly decorated with comfortable seating. Combined with well-crafted cocktails and Irish live music you can enjoy the evening for all occasions.”

“Situated in a very interesting street, it's a very interesting historical pub! Delightful little nooks to sit in. Visit on a Sunday afternoon and the folk club can be heard sharing its ditties from the front room which is a real delight. Food wise pork pie was great and good beers on tap, including Old Peculiar, so always going to get a 10 from me - ticks all the boxes of what a traditional English pub can be.”

“I really enjoy an occasional evening in here, real ales, real ciders. No TVs and no kids, bliss.”

“Nice open fire, the BEST Bass for miles and miles and miles and...well you get the idea. An immensely funny (humorous) landlord. Very friendly pub (also dog friendly if you have a best friend). We are by no means local but the journey is always worth the while.”

“A gem of a real pub with matching old-fashioned land lady. Excellent ales in great condition in unspoilt surroundings. No food but you are welcome to bring your own. Well worth the diversion off the M40!”

“Good social space for the village nicely linked to the Cement works heritage. Excellent talk at the club last night about the history of the works. Need to be a member for a very modest fee if you are a regular.”

“I recently dined at the Romanian restaurant. It was a delightful experience. The traditional Romanian dishes were authentic and bursting with flavor. The papanas and beans soup were delicious dishes, perfectly prepared. The staff were attentive and provided outstanding service, making us feel welcome and well-cared for. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a genuine taste of Romania.”

“Indigo Bar and Restaurant is hands-down my favorite local spot, earning a well-deserved five stars! The service is top-notch, with warm, attentive staff who make every visit feel like coming home. Their organic, farm-fresh Kenyan cuisine is a flavor-packed celebration of tradition, with every dish bursting with authenticity and care. Pair that with a crisp Whitecup beer, and you’ve got the perfect meal. As a regular, I’m consistently impressed by the vibrant yet cozy vibe and the team’s passion for quality, making Indigo Afro Spot an absolute gem.”

“Very friendly family pub with a great menu and beautifully cooked food!”

“We had a surprise birthday meal here recently and honestly can’t rate it high enough! Attention to detail was great, food was extremely high quality and the service was next level. The staff went above and beyond to look after us and make sure my son had an amazing 30th birthday! Highly recommend a visit !”

“All round great experience. Servers were very friendly and didnt rush anything, but also didnt keep me waiting. Starter and pizza were both excellent and good choice of ales on tap. Would definitely visit again!”

“I came here today with family. Car park is very small so parking can be a little difficult. We opted for the roast which was extremely tasty and hot. The food is very reasonably priced. I had the sticky toffee pudding for dessert (it was nice but very sweet). Overall, I'd say this is a nice place that deserves a visit!”

“Lovely meal, good selection of pub favourites alongside healthier options. There is outside wrap around seating with views of the canal and river where you can watch the world and boats go by. The only downside to sitting outside were patrons not controlling their dog's and the more inebriated customers bellowing to passers by which is why I've given the lower score for atmosphere.”

“I had a brilliant experience at Pesto at the Axe & Compass. The food was absolutely spot on full of flavour, fresh, and really well presented. The service was just as impressive; the staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole visit feel welcoming. The atmosphere was relaxed and cosy, perfect for enjoying a meal without feeling rushed. Overall, a great place to eat and definitely somewhere I’ll be returning to. Highly recommend”

“I visited the Half Moon for a wedding reception. The food was excellent and offered plenty of choices including vegetarian options. The staff were great and coped well with a very busy pub (as well as the usual Saturday night drinkers there were a lot of thirsty weddings guests). I’d certainly like to go back for a few pints on a regular Saturday.”

“Lovely restaurant! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I had the duck parfait to start which was absolutely delicious, followed by the pork belly—perfectly cooked with crispy crackling on the side. There were lots of yummy vegetables too. Overall, I definitely recommend!”

“Closed and moved to new premises, Information purposes only, star rating is only because you can't post anything without selecting stars. I've had takeaway in the past and the food is good, what more can i say”

“Excellent value, service and quality of food. Just perfect. Will definitely be making this a regular for treat night. Thank you so much. Lorraine Hammonds”

“Excellent food and very well priced. Lovely friendly atmosphere and all staff were very polite. Will be going back soon and would highly recommend. Keep it up guys!!”

“Had brunch with 12 of us, Alex was brilliant - such a brilliant server and an asset to the team! The choice of cocktails for the bottomless brunch was so good, one of the best I’ve come across. Would come back for brunch again!! Thanks Alex for being a brilliant host”

“Great place to grab a drink in Rugby, lovely staff, and helped with a special event - cordoned off area of the pub (even on a busy Saturday) and massively helped with the organisation and logistics. Good rotating list of ciders and cask beers (local and further afield) as well as selection of interesting bottled beers, and many other choices. Also do a lot of themed events.”

“Absolutely delightful place. Delicious food and great staff! Would highly recommend. They have a separate gluten free menu and plenty of veggie options! Also the loo is decorated amazingly”

“Experience was wonderful as soon as we walked in. Josh came straight to us at the door so no waiting around, showed us to the table and made us feel relaxed, he wasn’t too overbearing throughout our time which we really appreciated. A wonderful staff member. Poppy was also tentative to ensuring our table was cleared efficiently and food was delivered promptly with not too great a wait. Lovely! The atmosphere was enhanced by the live jazz music from Suzie Woods. A very enjoyable dining experience.”

“We reserved a handicap room. It didn't make a difference for me, but the shower had about a 6" threshold. Otherwise, the room was perfect. The service and food were perfect.”

“Stumbled upon this place by accident and what a hidden gem it is! Great Cask Ales and the food was exceptional. The staff are fantastic and nothings to much trouble. The Ham & Leek pie was perfect and the tall lady behind who served us was a very bubbly person. We will be returning for sunday dinner in a few weeks”

“Top drinking hole. Excellent quality beer and good atmosphere. Doesn't serve food”

“Traditional Black Country Brewery house across the road from the public school. Extremely sociable bar staff will navigate you through the 3 house and 6 guest cask ales if you haven’t done your homework beforehand on the Real Ale Finder App. Additional choice of bottled beers to drink in while you play skittles or takeaway”

“What a classic old school pub where very little has changed decor wise over the years making this a must visit venue. Choice of 3 (obscure to me) cask ales on today. Cold snacks and hot drinks available Check opening times - they tend to vary during the day to avoid disappointment.”

“This pub is a perfect stop of after a walk at Ryton Pools. It has a beer garden, restaurant and bar. We took our dog and so went to the bar. She was made very welcome and even given a treat. We had the lunch specials, the food portions were good and they were great value for money. We all really enjoyed our meals and service was brilliant too.”
