Needless to say, ours is an intimate, homely operation, and as a result, you can expect to be treated like a long-lost member of the clan when you drink here, too. If you’re searching for the best pubs in Kidderminster, you can stop looking now.
A town with plenty to offer for all ages
Situated on the River Stour, Kidderminster offers a blend of industrial history, natural beauty, and family-friendly attractions. From Harrington Hall and Hartlebury Castle to the Drakelow Tunnels and the Museum of Carpet (which is exactly what it sounds like), the town’s full of incredible attractions. All of which are made better by ending at the Mare & Colt – the best countryside pub in Kidderminster.Wyre Forest is one of the top local attractions, the largest woodland National Nature Reserve in the country. With a variety of walking trails available, as well as routes for cycling, running and horse riding, there are plenty of ways to explore the forest, as well as plenty of fun activities to do within it.
Alternatively, you can use Kidderminster as a base to explore Worcestershire or Birmingham. The town is well-connected by road, being close to the M5 motorway and having excellent rail links.
The best pub food in Kidderminster
Food is one of the main reasons people go to pubs and, whether you’re one of those guests who like to sample the specials or simply someone who wants a classic pub meal, our food menu will offer something for you.
A breakfast selection that sets you up for a great day. A lunch menu that varies from hearty classics to tasty bits to graze on. And, of course, a dinner menu combining seasonally-shifting specials, old favourites done properly, and the meal we’re most famous for – our Sunday roast.
No stone has been left unturned at our pub, so whatever your diet, we’ll have something for you too. All you need to do is come with an appetite. And a second dessert stomach if that’s not too much to ask. Aside from being known as the best pub food in Kidderminster, our pudding menu is something of a local legend as well.
