The Holmcroft, Tillington, Stafford

Not much more to add really, except I used it at weekend lunchtimes, and it was busy, but not too crowded. I stuck to Banks' as it is not a tipple readily available in my neck of the woods, pleasant pint, and at £2.10 good value Reasonable sized car park, with free on street parking available Co-op with cash machine very nearby if you run short of beer coupons Never ate here, but some of the group I was with did, and reckoned the food was good value & tasty Not likely to return to Stafford area, but should I find myself there again I would not hesitate to go in here

A white rendered Marston’s pub/eatery, with steep pitched roof and dormer windows. There are hanging baskets and greenery, aswell as a patio area. The interior is an L-shape around the serving bar. To the right on entry is the food area, on the left is the lounge/dining area and at the end of this area is a pool table and dart board. The décor is the all too familiar different coloured plain walls, with; red, cream, green and salmon featuring. Arty pictures adorn the walls, except for the pool area, which had a few sports pictures instead. There were several TVs that had the test cricket on. There was general background music at a decent level, the service was fine and there were just a couple of others in at my visit. Beer; tap stuff with Pedigree and a decent enough Banks’s Bitter on handpull. No MILD. An inoffensive place, pretty standard, as these places are. I have been in worse.
