Split level Black Country Ales pub, split areas inside with the bar to one side at the back of the pub. Otherwise standish BCA real ale house. Outside space at rear as well as a couple of tables at the front on the pavement.
Good beer and seems a decent place

Quinno _ left this review about The Orange Tree
A new(ish) BCA-acquired pub; a rambling place that feels like a TV adaption of an upmarket 70s boozer; wonky timbers, carpet and some glasswork (apparently it has been de-furbed from a more gaudy décor from its Firefly days). Bar is at the far end with the usual BCA offering and guests; the place comes with a GBG listing. Both of mine - BCA Fireside and Bewdley Worcester Way - were fine if not spectacular, both a tad warm to really excel (NBSS 3). Cobs available as is standard in BCA pubs and mine was tasty. Helpful and friendly barman set the atmosphere. Very busy at 5.30pm Good Friday, unlike some nearby outlets. 7.5

Whilst travelling towards Hereford city centre, my partner and I decided to call in at the Orange Tree, which was acquired by Black Country Ales in 2022.
The Orange Tree is a modern pub, but it has a traditional feel about it. There are 12 hand pumps, 10 ales 4 of which are Black Country Ales, and 2 ciders. To gaze upon the row of highly polished hand pumps, is like being a child in a sweet shop. The Bar Man who served us, was extremely helpful and allowed us to sample some of the ales, before we opted for Pig on the wall, and later Fireside. They were both in perfect condition, and served at the right temperature.
Food is available in the form of cobs, pork pies, scotch eggs and sausage rolls. The cobs are supplied by a local bakery, and are highly recommended. The Orange Tree is a must for any real ale enthusiast.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Firefly
Sister pub to the Firefly in Worcester, which also serves some interesting beers and ciders. The building dates from the 1700's and has low ceilings and what looked to be an original oak panelled wall in the right hand side room. The flooring around the main entrance was a mix of symmetrical designed oak timbers and tiles. The bar area was positioned midway along the left handside and had a dark grey panelled front with polished oak counter. Six hand pumps along the middle of the bar, serving 3 ales and 3 ciders. The ale choice on our visit was Siren Mistletoe, Wye Valley Hopfather and Tiny Rebel Dutty IPA. We went for the Tiny Rebel, which was a good choice. The pub also had a good range of craft beers and lagers. Food is served daily and specialises in a vegan menu, along with their regular bar food menu.
