AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

The service was first class, staff very friendly and the food was excellent. We were trying to compare to somewhere local to us and were pleasently surprised that one of our favourite reaturants Worsley Old Hall is part of the same chain. Keep up yhe good work."

Update: 27/11/14…read more Given that it was a Wednesday and no good weather the place was nearly full. The point of the update is that two colleagues and me went to use the vouchers from previous visits. I held 9 vouchers. 6 vouchers gives £12 of the bill. No problem. I mentioned that the other 3 expired 30/11/14. Not another problem, swapped for 3 that expire November 2015. Plus 2 more for the meals that had been paid for.... So, 5 new vouchers.... That's service..... and guarantees my return. 27/5/14 OK. They get their star back. Wife loved the place. The kids enjoyed their food too. Service was good. Had a slight problem getting to the place by taxi, as the driver didn't have the post code. I tried to ring the restaurant on the number they rang me back on earlier in the day. No answer. Eventually got to the place. BUT - IS THEIR PHONE FOR OUTGOING CALLS ONLY? OTHERWISE, ANSWER THE FLIPPING PHONE. The Bill was as follows: 3 x small Pepsi - £5.40 1 175ml - House White (Sauvignon Blanc) - £4.30 1 pint of Shropshire Gold - £3.70 1 Pate - £5.95 2 Seared wood pigeon starters (my 10 yo enjoyed) - £13.90 1 Crispy squid starter (my 12 yo daughter) - £6.95 Mains 1 Fish cakes - £10.95 1 Burger - £11.95 1 Children's haddock - £7.95 1 Lamb shoulder - £17.25 1 Bottle of (no. 49) Shiraz - £19.95 Total - £108.25 --------------------------------- Visiting again ..... Tried to book online, but time was greyed out. So rang three times but no answer. Time was about 3 pm. E-mailed as well as contacting their head office in Chester, and I presume the call to head office elicited the call at 3:30 pm. I like the opening of the call. You tried to call us during lunchtime.... Did I, at 3 pm! So that's the reason not to take bookings.... I explained the time I wanted was greyed out - they said that's was because it isn't available.... I said I just wanted to check..... I told them the time, and they sad....no problem.....If places playback their conversations, do they still believe it makes sense? Look I'm dropping a star, and quite frankly I wouldn't have tried so hard, but I previously raved about the place, so my wife wanted to go. They'll get the star back if my wife enjoys her meal, and nothing goes wrong. Just answer the bloody phone!!!!!!! ------------------ 7/5/14 Colleagues persuaded me to visit again last night. I had the same starter. The rump steak for the main (£17.95). Lovely and succulent. Nice chips and mushrooms. Pint of Shropshire Gold: £3.70, and large glass of Shiraz: £6.70. The place wasn't busy, as I have heard it can be. I'm letting them keep their 5 stars, but if when I visit again and find them slow to get the drinks to the table, and slow to get to the table for us to pay, when they have already delivered the bill, then I might drop a star. There are enough staff available to cope. The staff are very pleasant when serving, and visiting the table. --------------------- I couldn't fault the place. A colleague introduced me to the delights of the place. Superb selection of starters. Fantastic lamb shoulder, falling off the bone. Starter: Seared wood pigeon, black pudding and roast mushroom with a game reduction £6.95 Main: Lamb shoulder - £17.25 Also had a pint of Shropshire Gold - £3.70, and 175 ml of Percheron Shiraz/Mourvedre, South Africa - £4.60 I was too stuffed to have a pudding. I would have done, if I'd noticed their pudding wines. I know, I know.... greedy, but I have a rotund figure to maintain. :-) Well served by the staff...... Now the wife wants to visit!!!!

As time went on we decided that we would like to stay and have dinner here but indoors as it was getting cold. There were 14 of us and they managed to fit us into the restaurant area on the proviso we ordered quickly before the 6:30pm booking arrived and one table had to vacate by 8pm. The staff were great and we did not feel that we were being rushed even though some people had starters. A lot of us picked from the specials board and the food came out devine and the service was outstanding. The place was busy as it was the jazz/fringe festival weekend so the clientelle was of all ages (a bit annoying having babies/kids screaming thoughout the meal) including elderly who came in through the fire door for easy access. I would definitely recommend this place which is also dog friendly. This place is soo good that Seasick Steve was playing there that evening and eating his dinner in the pub part as we left.

A family run pub at the heart of a picturesque village not far from Wolverhampton and Telford…read more The Seven Stars really is a gem of a place. They serve wonderfully prepared food in a restaurant/pub that has a friendly atmosphere, good quality real cask ales and a high regard to customer service. If you've been after the return of the great British pub with well cooked food - this is the place for you. All of the meat comes from local butcher, Martin Thomas of Pattingham and is cooked to perfection on site by the chef and owner, Caroline Haddon. The wines offer a nice selection of both new and old world and are easy to drink and good value for money. Highly recommended.

Went here on a quiet Sunday afternoon for Sunday lunch and had an absolutely great afternoon…read more There were 6 adults and 3 children and were made really welcome by the staff. We had 2 small children with us and sometimes these sort of establishments do not really appreciate them being there, this could not be said of the Grove staff who were extremely accommodating. They provided pens and colouring books and even brought the kids meals out first so they could have a head start on the adults. The adults and the older child had starter and a Sunday lunch main course. My starter was the salad and garlic mushrooms which were absolutely delicious. The main course was huge and by the end of the meal I was extremely full (Not bad for £11.99). Cant comment on the sweets as I couldn't manage one!! We finished the meal with nice pots of tea and coffees. Total bill came to £120 which is not bad for 9 people for two meals, drinks and teas and coffees. Would definately go back again and no doubt will do.
