The King's Arms - Solihull

Only OK. Two courses were sold out. We had to ask for our wine selection three times before it arrived. We requested a delay to the serving of our starters but this did not happen.

Disappointed with menu. Fish cakes meal much too dry. Pork belly meal spoilt by changes which reduced the pork belly in favour of another meat. Good service on a busy night.

Delicious Sunday roast, but apparently my on line booking had not been received. However a table was found and all was well.

The setting is very nice, but the food was mediocre at best. We had lamb Hoffa’s and the wrap accompanying it was stone cold. When we complained, it was taken away and then returned with the wrap barely Luke warm.
The waitress was apologetic but no one from management made any effort to come to talk to us or offer any apology.
The linguine with prawn/chorizo looked like it had been sitting for s long time and then repeated just before being brought to the table, presumably because of the delay in sorting out the starter issues.
So, all in all, pretty unimpressed

I have two comments to make :
1. The main meal I had was very good bit I wish it had been a bit hotter.
2. The waiting staff did what the do in so many restaurants and pubs - instead of moving round the table to serve, they serve a guest then without going round the table, they lean over that guest to serve the person sitting next to them. Can't they be trained not to do this?

Lovely setting next to the canal. Good quality friendly service. Lovely open fire ( although parts of the restaurant away from the fire can be cool ). Recommend the burger and the steak salad.

Service was good, food was very tasty.

I booked, specifically asking for a table near the window, and this was not organised.
Food was lovely.
Service was good.

booked seven people for the Sunday roast, got to say the service was good with a smile, but sadly we all agreed that the food was very poor, no flavour to any of the roasts, hardly any veg on your plate, half a carrot, half a parsnip, three small roast potatoes, tiny amount of cabbage & the meats were dry and tastless & the gravel was like hot coloured brown water, very poor won't be going back thats for sure, my guess is they've got all young people working in the kitchens..

Good atmosphere in this canal side pub diner, attentive and enthusiastic staff and a tempting menu.
