Homestead — Restaurant in Walsall

Really confused… ate here once in December and enjoyed it! Called ahead asking if we can sit outside to eat and if they make a chicken ceaser salad which they said they could. Went to garden area which is enclosed but just off a car park. Went in and asked for a highchair. Lady behind the bar said I’m not sure if you can take them out, yet assured her we were all dining. She went and asked someone and came back saying no. I asked “how am I supposed to feed my child?” She said I don’t know. She asked a lady who then came to me and said you can’t take highchairs outside as it’s unhygienic…what? Aren’t they disinfected after each use? Also, it’s on astroturf. I’m baffled. Called some other restaurants who were happy to accommodate. Think it’s quite discriminatory that they can’t accommodate us as a family because I have a child who needs a highchair…Spoke to a friend with children who said she has never come across that and agreed it strange..I’m confused as I’m sure any mother or father with a small...

Wow wow wow!!!

Came here on a whim after shopping and was greeted with your grandfathers favourite drinking hole.

We were both simply blown away by the food. I had the mega mixed grill to get a bit of a taste of everything and I was presented with a heaving plate of pure meaty goodness. Chicken that fell apart in my mouth, sausages that oozed meaty juices, a steak cooked to perfection (med rare), a thick succulent gammon steak topped with two perfect fried eggs, home cut and cooked chips and a healthy dose of fresh garden peas.

The Mrs had a vegetarian lasagne that was also perfect, cooked with fresh veg rather than Korn meat and was piping hot with a good side of home cut and cooked chips with some excellent garlic bread.

Simply gorgeous food, served in a timely manner and by our wonderful server Jenny who was really personable and helpful.

Highly recommended! We found a diamond in the rough with this place! We shall 100% be...

The Homestead is in need of a bit of modernisation but it does well with what it and the location it's in (the no drugs warning sign as you walk in is the context here and this review is written within that context). The menu is basic pub food but ok and the bar has a weird thing where it's split between two rooms so the staff have to position themselves between the two rooms meaning that there's a bell you ring to get the attention of the bar stuff. It's kind of quirky but it works. I tried the scampi which was fine and what you'd expect in terms of standard, and the prices are reasonable. If the pub was modernised and the menu revitalised it could be a lot better but as it stands it's an ok pub serving the local community which is very much where it's...
