Every bit the welcoming country pub you may well be hoping to stumble upon around Bournheath, The Nailers Arms attracts a loyal clientele from Bromsgrove and beyond, drawn by the delicious food (available seven days a week) as well as a wide selection of quality beers, wines and spirits and that welcoming atmosphere only possible in a truly local institution. Phil and Shula Witherford are the passionate couple behind this popular bar and contemporary restaurant on Doctors Hill, a place which is hard to leave without a personal promise to the publican that you’ll be back to get your fill again before too long.

    We were greeted with a smile , shown to our lovely table and served amazing, constantly asked if we needed anything all along with amazing food and drinks. Absolutely brilliant job to the two young ladies that looked after us throughout our visit.

    Service was incredibly slow. We had to wait a long time for the waitress to come over and take our food order. The chef was lovely but the carvery wasn’t hot, it was just about warm. We were only asked once if we wanted a drink, despite being there for 3 hours and were not told that we needed to go and pay at the bar if we wanted to split the bill. This meant we were sat there for ages waiting for the bill (or even to order another drink would have been nice!) live band started towards the end, who were great but a little loud for the small environment
