The Tavern

Beautiful Sunday carvery on Mothering Sunday and again yesterday, looking forward to coming again!

Busy restaurant is a pleasant clean pub. Service was slow but courteous and menu was excellent with options for all. Chef personally apologised for lack of pesto for my sea bass (kitchen delivery error) and offered alternatives. Food hot and plentiful. Didn't feel rushed. Recommended.

We had Sunday lunch at the Tavern. We have been before and as always found the food to be excellent with regards to quality and quantity and with service to match

Great service made to feel welcomed fantastic food plenty of variety as well presented well worth the money and great time too we will be back again and will recommend this place for any one who like quality food and service with a relaxing atmosphere

Thank you so much for very enjoyable lunch today, everthing was perfect, especially as we took a couple of our friends, who also enjoyed the meal very much. Apple crumble and custard, wonderful.

The Tavern offered wonderful food, well presented and tasty. The room was beautifully decorated, clean and welcoming. The desserts were fabulous. We had a fabulous Sunday lunchtime experience.

Fantastic food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!

Good evening very pleasant staff, a good range of beers,wine and gins good food menu recommend the gammon and the coconut prawns good night Thank you,

Fantastic food, great service & atmosphere. Great value for money. Despite the pub being really busy all of the staff couldn't have looked after us better.

Excellent food and atmosphere. Always received good service here and food is quality. Lovely traditional pub with good range of beers and gin. Thank you.

Five of us had the Sunday lunch carvery on Mothering Sunday. The meal was beautiful, both mums really enjoyed it and we will definitely be back!

Very good, hot plates, hot food. Very good brilliant fresh chips fantastic food. There were 6 of us for a birthday meSl and everybody had really really good food. Can't wait to go back. Would recommend.

Great food and service from the whole Tavern team. A lovely evening all round. We will be back for more. Keep up the good work.

This is a brilliant pub with exceptional food and always a lovely warm welcome as the owners do go that extra step in terms making you feel at home.

Very friendly staff and lovely food. We had starters (camembert and scallops) and main course (rump steak and sea bass). All were well presented and delicious.

Lovely village setting. Great choice of food and good selection of beers. Local band were also playing which was great and will definitely be back.

Another lovely meal and great atmosphere. We have been coming here for 10 years and it never fails to deliver good service food and drinks.

Excellent food, drink service and a super atmosphere, this isa real gem of an eating place in the Staffordshire countryside, it is highly recommended, but book early as it is very popular

Good food. Slow service (but they were busy). Main issue is satff (not the manager but one of his team), he wasn’t welcoming, didn’t communicate. I had to go chase him to go to the table after being there for 30 minutes, he didn’t give us menus. Just made our party feel a little unwelcome. Just didn’t seem to be the type of personable customer facing individual you’d expect to find.

Good restaurant pub with great selection of Gin's and Ales. Excellent Sunday Carvery !!! We would recommend this place to anyone. Give it a try and see for yourselves!

Very poor overlooked sea bass No flexibility over potatoe selection Extra selection ordered & payed for but. Chef dumpted original selection on plate Carbonara greasey/ swimming in oil & just tasteless - left 50% just got bored !

Staff all very friendly and helpful. All of our meals delicious, from a lovely selection. A couple of slips on the orders but nothing serious.

The food was good. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back and recommend the place to friends. Many thanks and see you again.

Love this place - the food was excellent, with pleasant service in a pretty and welcoming pub - looking for an excuse to visit again

We have been to the Tavern a few times now since moving into the area. Excellent carvery on a Sunday. Good restaurant food and service all year round. Well worth a visit.

Good food served in a nice atmosphere ( even though there was a live band playing), but it was slow service to order food and very slow to finally get the food- but it was tasty and delicious when it arrived.

We went to the Tavern on a Friday night. We had great service & delicious food. Is there any more that we need to say!

Great Sunday Lunch - as always consistently good. The pub carries a great range of real ales, having been awarded many accolades by CAMRA and also has somewhere around 30 different gins.

Lovely evening, nice atmosphere and great food. Had the steak - beautifully done. Decent service and good range of choice of food, even vegetarian options

The Tavern at Denstone - Excellent service even though it was very busy, food tasted beautiful, was freshly prepared and piping hot, staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our lunch very much the staff were very welcoming and the food was very good. We shall definitely be going back there soon.

Very good service. We had non meat carvery and they made special veggie gravy for us. Staff were pleasant. Price was reasonable. They were quite busy

Always first class food and service. Pizzas are to die for, gin selection is excellent and beer is damned fine splendid. Thanks again for a great evening

Very good fish and chips, although another party members was rather small. Friendly and welcoming. Good beer. Would recommend the pub generally. Looked to be a nice indoor conservatory too.

First visit to the Tavern, very warm welcome from the staff and food was excellent especially the home made chips. Lovely surroundings and very cosy and traditional pub.

Good was excellent. However we had to wait 40 from ordering for a starter and spent over 2 hours for a 2 course meal. I realise it was peak time and busy but would hope for a more speedy eating experience next time. It won't put me off returning as food is very tasty.

Went for a family meal with my father who is in a wheelchair. No disabled access so had to haul the chair and him up the entrance step! Friendly staff but very slow service. Waited 45 minutes for our order. When it came the food was ok but not special. It's not cheap so expected better. Very few meals to eat for someone who is gluten free. The landlord was extremely kind to my father and helped as much as he could. The actual place is lovely. Spacious and well decorated. Oh and check your bill - ours was wrong. We were charged for someone else's drinks!

Beautiful place in a nice location. Food and service excellent. Can recommend and will visit again if in the area. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality Chris.

Had a great night with great food and service. Will return soon and would recommend The Tavern to anyone passing the area. Thank you for you hospitality Chris :)

It was excellent. The food was very good and the staff efficient and friendly. Only slight thing was we got charged for an extra beer that we did not have. They did take it straight off when we told them so it was fine. Will definitely go back.

Good atmosphere the food was most enjoyable with good portions , as for the staff very pleasant and chatty. Yes we will be paying more visits. A relaxing evening.

The food is Good , the prices are reasonable, the staff are lovely. What's not to like. Shame they had no ale in the pumps though?

Brilliant service, food arrived quickly and was of a very high standard. A cozy pub, with an excellent varied menu. Only annoyance was the noise from two babies, however that is not the fault of the establishment. Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again.
