The Holly Bush - Redditch

The a la carte menu was very much typical pub menu food with a few Italian themed dishes. There was a specials menu which had slightly better choices but some unusual combinations of offerings. I thought the food was OK. Starters were better. The mains weren 't that great. ALL the food is massively over priced. The restaurant itself was down in numbers and no doubt because of the pricing. I doubt they get many returning customers as a result. The bar side was busier. Overall not great. It 's a nice looking place, I 'd go back there for a casual drink but I wouldn 't eat there again.

Firstly the staff from arrival to the end of the visit were attentive and fab. Ryan was great and Lucy on the bar was equally super. The food was prompt and absolutely delicious. The ambience was just perfect for a meal out catching up with a friend. Thank you all for making the evening great. Ceri

We have visited The Hollybush on several occasions and do think it is a top quality restaurant. Spotless toilets, comparable to a 4 star hotel and immaculate presentation throughout. However, this time, we left overall disappointed with our meal. The rump steak was not the best and quite bland. The beef Sunday roast was very chewy. The salt and pepper squid starter was surprisingly spicy and not served with a lemon slice, which was disappointing. The children's menu, when put together main and dessert, is expensive for smaller children. We will probably visit again one day, as they do try hard to give a top quality experience, it is just this time, the food underwhelmed. Past visits have warranted 4 and 5 stars, just not today.

Serving staff were super friendly and attentive. The drinks and food were very good and exceeded expectations

We only have fish&chips but they were the best we had in a long time plus excellent service!
