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 attended on Christmas eve lunch time. It was not rushed even though we had limit of 2 hours. The waitress took our order and was very polite, calm and efficient. We had a party of 8 including a child and all have said it was one of the best places they have eaten in a long while at lunchtime. The atmosphere was good We Enjoyed it the food.

    The service was slow and disappointing. The red velvet cheese cake was not available which really upset my husband and no Christmas pudding on the dessert menus

    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.

    Beef was dry & sliced thinly , veg & roast potatoes could have been cooked more & the sprouts looked terrible no taste & dry & food soon started to go cold , didnt help by room itself being cold , no radiators on in December. Food standard seems to have gone down in class from previous visits , not sure if new owners or because open all day . That's my opinion.
