About the Holly Bush – your local country pub in Lichfield

Looking for pubs in Lichfield? The Holly Bush feels like opening up a wonderful portal to the past. Found on the outskirts of Lichfield, you’ll recognise us by the climbing ivy that traverses our exterior, winding its way around potted plants and floral baskets. 

Step inside, and you’ll find a quintessential countryside pub. There’s wooden beams and decorative fireplaces. Exposed brickwork and old-fashioned furniture. Even quaint pictures and plates adorning the wall. It’s a gathering of country comfort and all that’s missing is you. So if you’re looking for a country pub in Lichfield, your search ends here.

A town with olde worlde character

Known for its rich heritage, stunning architecture, and absolutely charming atmosphere, Lichfield is a must-visit for anyone seeking a countryside escape. 

Lichfield Cathedral is arguably the city's most iconic landmark and is a magnificent Gothic structure that dates back to the 12th century. Its three spires are among the tallest in England, while the interior features intricate stonework, medieval stained glass windows, and a stunning Chapter House. 

There’s also Guildhall and Beacon Park to enjoy, the latter of which has been named as one of the best parks in the country. Or you can enjoy the many independent shops, cafes, and restaurants nestled along the city's ancient streets, as well as its regular market. 

Lichfield is also the birthplace of the famous English writer and lexicographer Dr. Samuel Johnson (1709–1784), best known for A Dictionary of the English Language. The Samuel Johnson Birthplace Museum is dedicated to his life and works and is housed in the 18th-century building where he was born, offering a fascinating glimpse into the cultural context in which he developed his ideas.
