The Red Cow in Staffordshire Moorlands

Brilliant excellent food friendly.and welcoming. Recommend to anyone you definitely won't be disappointed.

Food is well presented. Place is clean. Staff are attentive .( If a little robotic).. But food flavours don't leave me wanting to return. Had better . Had worse. Definitely worth a try.

Game of two halves....starters and steaks very very good. Fish and chips very disappointing, tarragon chicken tough. Staff very helpful and tried to put things right. Can't quite stretch to four stars but some parts were five stars. Would we go again? Maybe. Dietary needs tried to be accommodated but that's where the issues occurred. I'm trying to be utterly fair.

Lively. Busy. Everything you want if you want a pub night with the wife. If you want a Toby carvery it's not the place for you.

Very up and down with every new owner and right now it is down down down. We had a good run for a few years with delicious belly pork, bread and butter pudding, bailey's dessert. Last time I visited some idiot had had the wonderful idea of installing LED spotlights in the ceiling cleverly angled to shine into the eyes of diners. Ambience ruined. Serves the same 5 dishes as every other mediocre pub now. It used to be a special night out where you'd dress up; that ship had sailed. Such a shame, we loved this place.

I think it's just changed hands, which may be the reason for there being a very restricted lunch menu. What was served was nice but very small portions, a tiny bowl of fries and there appeared to be no desserts on the menu, nor were we asked if we wanted any. Added to this, we weren't given any cutlery lol but as it was only the small side salad that needed a fork we managed the rest with our hands! Hopefully just teething issues with new management as the courses that were showing on the website, though not available yesterday, looked delicious.

Friendly and welcoming staff, very accommodating. The food was fantastic! Will definitely be back again!!!

My wife and I had the 3 course sunday lunch, which is outstanding value. The soup for starters was red hot and delicious. The Sunday dinner was really tasty and filling. We had the beef which wasn't cooked enough for us, as we like it well done, but that's not their fault. We then finished with sticky toffee pudding and custard which was superb. We came out absolutely stuffed!I would definitely recommend this place and will go back again to sample other dishes.

Ben at the door was a lovely man.The staff are really friendly and pleasant.We headed over little early to get table outside for dinner.The bill for the 4 of us:1) sharing platter recommended for 2 pax2) Mushroom Stroganoff, Half and Half (you can choose between rice of chips or a bit of both and I went with both) I recommend rice though, to pick up the Stroganoff.3) Small fish and chips (a decent sized portion)4) Prawn Scampi5) Chicken breast with chips3 x Tribute Ales1 x Sparkling waterCame out to a lil' over 60£, bellies filled, nice socially distanced seating and pleasant environment.It is a lovely place to spend some time, have some good food and enjoy being outside with family.

Love coming here. Atmosphere is great, cosy interior, friendly and relaxed staff. Tasty beer (l normally struggle to find what l like in pubs). 4 stars only because the food is good but not perfect. I do recommend this place.Update 2020.I suppose the chef is new here as meals look pretty posh now. Food is delicious but those ones who love massive portions might be not satisfied as there's not too much on plates. Yet if you go for quality rather than quantity you will be really satisfied. Big range of meals.My only disappointment last night was the dessert as the apply pie dough was definitely undercooked (
