Plume of Feathers in Stafford

I have frequented this establishment a multitude of times now and I finally feel it is time to leave a review. I have never had a bad meal here, to the contrary, I have always been very impressed with the quality of food coming out of this small bistro pub. The menu is small and concise, the selection is reminiscent of classic British pub grub cooked to an exceptional standard with options such as the blonde ale pie with bubble and squeak. The attention to detail is also impressive, boasting local ingredients and fresh made-in-house accompaniments such as the tartare sauce (something I’m slowly deciphering to make myself!), ranch slaw, and the small meringues on top of the key lime cheesecake. My personal favourites from the menu have to be the pie or classic fish and chips, but honestly I don’t think you’ll be disappointed by whatever you order. The staff have also been friendly and attentive every time I’ve been there. If I had to leave any sort of complaint I’d say I don’t think the triple cooked chips from my most recent meal were ‘triple-cooked’ as they were hard inside (although still fully cooked), but, the restaurant was extremely busy so I’ll let them off that one! Keep up the good work and maintain those standard.

A fabulous place to eat. The food was delicious and was served promptly. The staff provided an excellent service being polite, efficient and engaging in light hearted conversation, all of which added to the dining experience. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. All in all a great dining experience.

Fantastic country pub with excellent (and generous) food, good array of ales and proximity to the downs banks national trust woods. Also friendly and good with dogs

Food was fantastic fresh and delicious I had the chicken hock pie was fantastic and filling , prices are high but was absolutely worth it for the quality of the food , very warm atmosphere inside and very friendly staff

Love it here! The Sunday dinner is amazing with really fresh veg - my only sadness is that they've taken off roast pork and its now pork belly :(I've not been mid week for the food then but I've seen it walk past and it all looks amazing.Desserts are also excellent!Never had a bad experience going in here staff are all friendly and accommodating.

Menu looks lovely, atmosphere very friendly, a fantastic family pub in a canal side location in a lovely village.

Marvellous! What a successful brand of Neil Morissey. High volume pub and food - but really good! Partculary impressed wth Neil Morrissey brand beers - especially the Blond (ale) with a great body - aka Ms A Holden perhaps?

My daughter booked this for a family Sunday lunch. Food was lovely, restaurant really nice, so glad we booked as wouldn't of fancied the bar area as it is dog friendly, not that I have anything against dogs just don't like them around whilst eating. Waitress was lovely and they provided detailed information as the grandchildren are dairy intolerant. I would definitely recommend the roast dinner although next time I visit I will be trying the fish and chips as my granddaughters looked delicious. Great choice of starters but we didn't try the puddings as stuffed from 2 courses. Looking forward to going back sometime 😀

Went for midweek lunch, food very good quality and tasty. Good choice of beers and very fair prices. Bar and waiting staff were really friendly and attentive. Dog friendly. Will definitely come back when in area.

Amazing pub food. Best I have seen for a long time. Beer very good and nice selection. Service good, food fresh cooked and great menu, really nice. I am coming again!
