The Bailiffs House Bewdley Lounge & Restaurant & Events — Restaurant in Wyre Forest

Visited Bewdley for the first time, what a lovely place.

This Restaurant is not. It looks beautiful from the outside, so inviting.

The Menu had a very limited choice, it didn’t feel like an authentic Italian restaurant.

We ordered our starters 2x bruschetta they tasted nice but the bread was rock hard, a real shame. Our mains were Lasagna and chicken on a skewer.

My Lasagna was rock hard on the top but was ok, is ok acceptable? Nothing to shout about. My wife’s food was also just ok and our funky chips were French fries! This place has so much potential with a great looking premises, but the food we ordered was a let down and very ordinary, maybe almost microwave food arranged on a plate to look fancy.

We did eat our food because we were hungry and don’t like complaining and we really couldn’t be bothered to cause a scene.

We wished we had gone elsewhere in all honesty, this isn’t what we wanted on our evening out in Bewdley.

A member of staff asked if everything was ok and we said it wasn’t the best, he just sighed with an oooh, no apology no “shall I fetch the manager”nothing, we asked him for the bill and he didn’t bring it.

We had to ask another member of staff and the extortionate £47.90 bill for mediocre food was promptly brought to us. £48 was handed over with no offer of change, it’s ok I didn’t want the 10p anyway, we just wanted to leave. We would have got better food in one of the cosy...

So disappointed with the whole experience. Food was below average, service was standard and the atmosphere was as confusing as a quadratic equation.

This place has so much potential to be amazing and it's just happy being mediocre and sub standard. Music is all wrong, 90's and 00's club classics. I know, right. Can you believe it. Who picks that out? Who in their right mind thinks that people wanna listen to that when they're trying to enjoy their meal? The volume it's played at boggles the mind. I could barely hear my wife talk to me from across the table.

Tables are so close and cramped that guests and waiters always bang into your chair when moving around. Strangely, there's a smoking room (inside) which allows the tobacco smoke to infiltrate the entrance of the restaurant. Personally, i don't wanna smell tobacco smoke while I dine.

Most importantly though, the food was tasteless, completely bland, i could only taste salt. I decided to order the pizza with pancetta and mushrooms. Wish i hadn't as i've had Chicago town frozen pizzas from Morrison's and pizza hut pizzas for a quarter of the price that taste 10 times better.

Very disappointed with the tasteless food, confusing atmosphere and the standard service. I will not be going back and certainly won't be recommending the restaurant to any of my...

I don’t like putting bad reviews and being a local business man I always try and support local business, however.

Very disappointed, been meaning to go for a while love Italian dinning. 2 stars for the venue only as it’s lovely.

No excuse for sloppy service and poor food.

My main meal was Cannelloni Haddock with Spinach & tomato sauce. Had to send it back, Not one piece of Haddock in the dish and it was served like slop on the plate. Then to be told I could have two for the same price as they are all the same ? What sort of response is that, the signature of the dish is Haddock and there isn’t any in the dish ! Needless to say they were told not to bother.

Service - No offer of black pepper or Parmesan, Parmesan was given in a small cup soon ran out between 4, replaced with grated cheese with no explanation (no Parmesan) we weren’t asked if our dishes were all ok either.

Once the plates were cleared we waited & waited to be asked about deserts which frankly after the myself not eating my main was looking forward too. We eventually gave up just asked for the bill, which yes they credited the one main meal with no explanation.

On leaving I can only assume the Manager who dealt with my meal complaint, never even acknowledged ourselves leaving looked the other...
