We were visitng friends who have a canal boat and we arranged to meet them at Wheaton Aston. The canal runs literally alongside the pub. I contacted the landlord Phil and asked if we could stay in our motorhome overnight at the pub as we planned to eat/drink with our friends there. Phil was happy for this to happen. When we arrived late on a Friday afternoon we could see that the pub was popular by the number of people inside eating and drinking. Glad I had booked a table as I suspect we might have had trouble if I had not.As for drinks there was an extensive choice of real ales, together with lagers, cider etc and a wide choice of speciality gins and malt whiskies including my favourite Talisker.As for dining the choice was great, either from the main menu or the daily specials. Two of us opted for calamari starters which were very tasty. Our main courses of mixed grill, lasagne and lamb were enjoyed by all. The two ladies enjoyed their crumbles!All the staff were very polite and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Phil, Steph, Freya behind the bar and the rest of your team. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will return.

Rather tired little pub but the cask ale we tried 'Town Crier' was spot on! Do hope they decide to do a refurb on this old pub - it really does need it.

Lovely pub with a good sized restaurant, Service very good. However, the food was very average, not sure whether the cook had been to the Caribbean but it seemed a very Anglicised version of what it should be.I had goat curry which was fairly tasteless pieces of meat in a bland brown gravy, did not look or taste very appealing.My wife had red snapper which frankly could have been any fish in batter.It was our first visit, and after some reviews we have had from friends disappointing.Suggest they stick to what they know, which I am sure is very good.

Real pub, real people, friendly staff. Lovely location by the canal, nice in summer. Simple and wholesome menu. Charity tea and cake days last Friday of every month are lots of fun

Lovely place with good food, it is probably advisable to book. We were recommended this place by our host at an Airbnb. Better to drive as taxis to/from Stafford around £40 return trip. Nice pint of Holdens as well.

Decided to try this place for our anniversary meal. We shared a starterOf lemon sole goujons which were very nice. Ordered mains of belly pork and sirloin steak. Steak was overdone but still tasty. Chips a bit stale like re warmed up. My wife had the belly pork which was a bit salty but tasty. The potatoes with this were very poor. The veg of broccoli, cauliflower and peas were just frozen warmed up in a dish and the dish had a pool of water in it. Service was dire. Had to chase more drinks. Had to chase a steak knife. The waitress never came over to ask about food till the end. When we told her she just said sorry about that and collected plates and left. Overall not a great place to eat. Won't be going back there again.

We were staying in a local hotel but wanted to go out for dinner in one of the local pubs/restaurants. We booked a table in the restaurant (upstairs) for Saturday evening. This place is great value for dinner; £15 for 3x courses. The food was absolutely lovely and tasty. The staff could not be more helpful or attentive; really appreciated the service plus friendliness. The bar downstairs was really busy, with live music. We had a few drinks before leaving. We would gladly return.

This place has a very enthusiastic chef and the food, staff and ambience work very well. However the gents toilets let the the whole experience down.Whoever cleans the toilets should look behind the toilet door, really sorry but itâs unforgivable to have this kind of filth on show.
