We booked for a table for two on Saturday night, and just as we were leaving a couple of friends paid an unexpected social call at our house. We invited them to join us. We got to the Covered Wagon, and explained the situation. Despite the restaurant being extremely busy, the gentleman booking us in was extremely helpful and found us a table for an extra two people in less than ten minutes. Food was as fantastic as always, it was our friend's first visit and they were impressed also. Service was superb and we'll be back soon!
Our first visit, and we were overwhelmed at the vegan menu. My girfriend said that this may have been the best curry that she ever had. We'll return soon!
Great food as always. Extremely quick service and lovely staff!

Lovely food and great service. With good selection of drinks
Food was lovely, but it was a bit cold in there.
Service wasn't as good as we have previously had, seemed very hurried and not very organised.we were on a long table, and ordered 3 portions of poppadoms for our table, 6 poppadoms were bought out on one plate and 1 portion of dips, we had to ask another waitress for an extra plate so we could share them poppadoms along the table and for 2 more portions of dips. We had 3 different servers, so not a very personal experience, and 2 of the 3 seemed to be in a rush to get the food given out and rush back off, some of the food was wrong, so had to be taken away, and nobody asked us if we needed anything else, it was very hurried. Usually after a few minutes of receiving our meal the server would come back to see if all was ok with the meals, but nobody came back to check on our table. We had to get the servers attention to pay our bill too as we were left for so long Food was good, but service wasn't great
If you want to pop somewhere to eat and be in and out in 30 minutes this place is great. Unfortunately we were a table of 17 wanting to celebrate a birthday. We ordered starters and mains and then the waiter said they were too busy to serve the starters separately so wanted to bring everything out together, we said no so just had a main meal. Then just as we served cake they came over to tell us they needed the table so could we leave. I have no idea why anyone goes back
Food was fab Service was really good Very attentive Great Atmosphere
You came highly recommended good food and service . Only complaint was we were cold some of us had to keep our coats on

Fantastic celebration for my husband’s 70th birthday. Excellent food & service.
Lovely food and service, good atmosphere, the only disadvantage was the place was a bit cold
Amazing food, large restaurant so plenty of seating and lovely staff 😊
The food was very tasty and there was plenty. I will definitely be visiting again.
Great meal and good customer service. Definitely visit again soon.
Definitely wouldn't go anywhere else now we'vefound this little gem!
We previously asked to be sat in a quiet area of the pub. It couldn't have been any noisier sat right by the bar and next to a VERY loud group... couldn't hear a word We were saying. We asked to be moved which was a bit better . The food was beautiful though .
The food was delicious great vegetarian options. Staff very polite. Have eaten here so many times and will be back again
Great service polite people at all times fantastic food very professional
Nice place , nice staff , good drinks selection, good value for money..
Cold chips,three missed meals Eventually got the 3 meals after the other 5 guests had finished.. They gave a free main to compensate but still not happy.
Arrived 20 minutes early,got seated straight away,went the bar got out drinks,within two minutes waitress arrived with menus,took our order,all I'll say as a negative is our Maine's arrived with starters,but as usual lovely food.
Good very very tasty as usual but took a while for mains to come out and starters hadn’t even been cleared away . Weren’t given enough knives and forks at first but think also as very busy night
Food was lovely, the order came out quickly, friendly staff.
rushed ,,,,, order was incorrect and drinks thought over priced in general
Food was delicious. A little draft where we were sat so food went a little cold quite quickly.
Absolutely delicious food and their sizzling platters a myst try. The lamb melted in your mouth and the prawn curry exploded with flavour with decent sized prawns too. Service was excellent with attentive staff. Highly recommended
Absolutely fantastic food!! Service amazing! Couldn’t falter anything, definitely returning. Thank you
Excellent food ,drinks and service. The best in Birmingham . Great choice of vegetarian and meat dishes Fully recommend
Went as a small group,food was fabulous as always,kebabs were delicious,service great too
Seated within 5 mins,service excellent,food delicious,staff friendly, helpful and efficienf
Food very good. Service great, not long to wait. Food to much had to ask for doggy. bag. If you are a big eater you are ok. Will be going again.
There weren't enough staff to wait the tables. We shared one between many big parties and there didn't seem to be a friendly atmosphere from her as she was very overworked!
The food was amazing. It was a very busy night and the standard of food was as good as it is on a quiet night. The staff are friendly and helpful. My only criticism is that we had to leave after 2 hours as the table was booked again.
I had friends travel up from Cornwall and every time they visit they demand we come for a mixed grill 👌🏼
Food was suoerb and great service masala chips out of this world
Food was great like always but unfortunately on this occasion there was were no napkins or enough cutlery at the table so had to go and find it ourself.
Unfortunately it was very cold in the pub so lots of us had to eat with our coats on. My friend ordered a paneer curry and sent it back as it was cold, they sent another one out and it was chicken ( she is a vegetarian) she didn't realise until she tasted a piece of it. Everyone else enjoyed the food but wished it was warmer in the pub. The guy seemed to hurry us out at the end, saying he needed the table. It didn't appear overly busy, or he didn't invite us to continue our chat in the bar area. Food wasn't as tasty as I've had in there before. Would go again but may try somewhere else for a next big group meal as well.
It was excellent, waitress went above and beyond and really looked after us.
Absolutely amazing, best curry I've ever had and is always my go to :)
The service and the food was excellent. Will be back next month for my Birthday
Hi: Nice restaurant but: Very little choice on the main menu with one chilli All the hard suraces make the place VERY noisy when busy Thanks.
