The Swan With Two Necks, Longdon

Now reopening with the previous landlady of The Royal Oak at Kings Bromley taking over. Mary did a great job at The Oak and so it's good news for Longdon as this pub has been mothballed for some time.

The Royal Oak, Kings Bromley

Now under new ownership following on from the good work done by Mary to turn the pub round (Mary has gone to the Swan With Two Necks at Longdon). Early signs are excellent. The new menu is very good indeed, the pub is clean,the atmoshere is great and the new landlord very friendly and welcoming. Cheese and biscuits are put out on a sunday evening and tapas on a friday. All in all a very good first impression.

Duke of York, Lichfield

This pub was once one of Lichfields busiest but a series of poor landlords saw the place go downhill and eventually close. Joules have done a great job bringing the pub back to life and the refurb is superb as it keeps all the original features. The split level bar is large with plenty of seating and the smaller lounge is cosy. The beer is fabulous, the food is great (try the pork pie) and the atmoshere is brilliant. The only thing missing is all the old regulars. If I have one complaint it's that I don't recognise a soul in there - where have they all gone? Highly recommended.
