The Black Star

I've just experienced the most amazing home made lasagne at this lovely little canal side pub. Just packed with flavour and presented with a fluffy jacket potato. Well recommended!!

WOW!!! Homemade Lasagne was delicious. Hubby had the ribs, he said they were very good! Good size portions and very cheap!! Lovely friendly staff. Would definitely recommend this place.

Very delicious food, nice location, especially if it's a sunny weather, you can enjoy the outdoor sitting area, very nice pub to check out!

Outstanding! My partner and I, absolutely love The Black Star. Maria and her team are all so lovely, friendly, welcoming and extremely hard working. Maria's food is the best. Proper fresh delicious home cooked food. The Lasagne is the best but everything on the menu is cooked to a very high standard and very tasty. Can't fault The Black Star. It's always very clean and tidy too. :) Highly recommended

A lovely pub by the canal. Dog friendly inside. Food was delicious and the best I have had for a very long-time. Shame we were in holiday as this would become my local place to go if I lived near by. Staff very friendly and the pub was very quirky inside. Loved it.

Nice pub to stop off and have some food and drinks. Good selection of ales and ciders. Good cobs, sausage rolls and pork pies if you want a quick snack. The only negative for me is the dog that resides there. He always has a go at my dog for some reason, but the staff do move him away if I ask.

What a great pub, fantastic location (canal side) one of my favourite pubs in the UK, why can't more pubs be like this? Very welcoming licensees A rare source of wye valley wholesome stout, wot a great beer!!!

What a fantastic pub restaurant just above the canal immediately after "Lower Mitton Bridge No.5" upon leaving Stourport on Severn basin onto the Staffs and Worcester canal.
Popped over here with a boater friend from Diglis Basin in Worcester as I had seen this pub whilst walking along the canal towpath on one of my photographic exploratory walks.
Lovely outdoors seating area with big tables and umbrellas and overlooking the canal below.
The chips we ordered were so delicious and chunky and the real cask ales were superb with my Butty Bach on tap as it turned out...perfect. The house Chardonnay was exceptional too.
A fantastic selection of proper pub snacks, scotch eggs, duck eggs, black pudding and freshly made sandwiches all there at the bar counter along with a fantastic selection of true cask ales on tap as well. Wow, we spent the glorious sunny afternoon here....how could we not?!
Tom the lad serving at the bar was a charming character, ever so friendly, welcoming and cheerful and nothing deterred him from his smiling jovial demeanour with a full house of punters waiting to get their orders in at his bar counter...
A BIG SHOUT OUT and HUGE THANK YOU to TOM and the REST OF the other STAFF serving outside too....WELL DONE YOU ALL!!! (Maybe I should have a word with the owners to give you all a bonus or raise, oops...)
The food selection on the menu looked amazing and pity we weren't around to pop over for an evening meal as we had to chug on to the Staffs and Worcester canal early the next morning.
DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PUB RESTAURANT HIGHLY, fantastic food, drinks and true proper real cask ales..
Gorgeous location and buildings and apparently the Black Star has it's own chapel for venues and other functions..weddings, parties etc. but please do check with the staff and owners as i was told about it!
Thanks Black Star for a most wonderful and amazing afternoon here!
