The Bird In Hand in Wyre Forest

Clean, friendly,kids & dogs welcome, reasonably priced pub. Can enjoy a lovely beer garden or sit out the front by the canal watching the world go by.

Friendly canal side pub. Well worth a visit.

Super "locals" pub. Having a face-lift. I do hope they don't take the charm out of it.

Great pub out the way so not completely rammed

Good value, friendly staff. Nice outside area.

Haven't been in for a long time , heard that new landlord taken over and Euro football was showing so decided to give it a visit. Will be back soon , friendly pub great beer , well worth a visit and right by the canal so ideal for walkers , boaters and cyclists.

I feel that I must offer a different point of view to previous reviews. Yesterday, we visited the pub whilst visiting our cousin on his boat. The staff were absolutely wonderful- the lunch food was well priced; the thick ham sandwich and the cheesy chips were excellent - Thank you

Very rude staff. After sitting for 15 minutes and no acknowledgement from any staff, I popped head into pub and asked if we could order food and drinks. Very rudely and abruptly was told the waitress would get to us, proceeded to show me an order of 5 drinks that was waiting and told me if I didn't want to wait I should go elsewhere! Then she was rude about us to another table!! Fantastic customer service 😂 same member of staff was rude/abrupt previous week but put it down to reopening stress and getting used to new way of doing things - nope just rude. Walked to watermill instead, welcomed immediately, food and drink served with a smile within 10 mins! Will not be going back.

Ordered a beer and a glass of Merlot, the Merlot was off so returned it and it was replaced no questions or animosity. An excuse given though "most around here drink Sheraz so I don't know when the Merlot bottle was opened". We ordered a ploughman's lunch and a chicken kebab with chips. The ploughman's was a slice of ham, small wedge of cheese a pickled onion and a bit of salad and a small baguette which was stale and therefore unedable. The wife's kebab was slimy and unedable so she left it all and ate the chips. Nobody came to see if we needed anything or ask if the food were OK. We slowly drank our drinks expecting someone to come and clear the table but know one did so we left very disappointed. We went here because the reviews and the menu looked to our taste. The first thing we noticed on arrival was a scant and basic menu. I know things in their trade have been tough and can accept a simpler menu, but I can't accept basic food not cooked propper.

Nice canal side pub. Unfortunately the food is dreadful. Ordered a steak and ale pie, which arrived in a pie dish with a big hearty puff pastry lid on it. On removing the lid I discovers an almost empty dish. Then to add to this I bit into one of the chips only to discover that the inside was black. I drew this to the attention of the cook who told me that that was their normal portion and did not offer any apology for the standard of food. Needless to say I didn't consume the "food". Sadly the worst thing about this was the attitude of the staff. They genuinely could not have cared any less. Shame really.
