The bar staff are friendly as soon as you enter the pub. There is a wide choice of food, which made it hard to choose what to have. Food was hot & really nice, we were a party of four & all plates were cleared on all courses. Highly recommended this pub.
I can really recommend The Prince of Wales in Hoath for amazing food and a warm atmosphere. The chicken supreme was amazing and the gypsy tart is definitely worth trying. Good lighting and comforting decor really adds to the experience. Reasonable prices and great service too.
November can be a very gloomy month, with days getting shorter and colder. The Prince of wales may be tucked away, but it is a little gem of pub. Warm and comforting atmosphere throughout and I am not just talking about the log fire. The staff are always a delight and give you a hearty welcome and ensure you're are taken care off. The food as always was wonderful Thank you as always for a wonderful Sunday Lunch. I am sure I will be back very soon.
Really nice country pub serving great food. Stopped in on my way through the area for dinner. Had the pork with a side of garlic chiabatta and lemon cheesecake, nice sizeable portions, pork was amazingly cooked and flavourful with roast vegetables and sweet potato mash drizzled with sauce. The garlic bread was crispy with a soft centre just the right amount of oil stuffed with cheese. The cheesecake was so so good, soft base and fluffy top, wanted to order seconds of everything! Bar maid/FOH was really nice and cheery, which is a rarity these days, music on in the back ground and a lovely atmosphere. Will certainly come here again if I'm in the area
