Every bit the welcoming country pub you may well be hoping to stumble upon around Bournheath, The Nailers Arms attracts a loyal clientele from Bromsgrove and beyond, drawn by the delicious food (available seven days a week) as well as a wide selection of quality beers, wines and spirits and that welcoming atmosphere only possible in a truly local institution. Phil and Shula Witherford are the passionate couple behind this popular bar and contemporary restaurant on Doctors Hill, a place which is hard to leave without a personal promise to the publican that you’ll be back to get your fill again before too long.

    The dining area was clean and well laid out, staff were very attentive and obliging with every need and there was a wide range of beverages available. Diners were treated to a choice of dishes from the menu or a carvery with three choices of meat and all the usual trimmings and vegetables. We chose the steak and mixed grill meals from the menu and were overwhelmed by the quantity and quality of the food for a very reasonable cost. The steak was tender and cooked to the desired level requested. There is a large covered seating area and an extensive car park so plenty of room. Well worth a visit and we will be returning in the future.

    Ate on a busy Saturday lunchtime as a party of 5. Greeting by the member of staff on the bar was professional he also showed us to the table telling us someone would be over to take our orders. Food was tasty from the carvery and plentiful good value for almost £11, nice selection of desserts. Did not feel rushed at any time would definitely recommend

    Had the carvery, this is my 2nd visit,on both occasions we had to stand around for the staff to appear from the kitchen. The meat and veg are nice, the yorkshire puddings could be much better both bigger and better quality and the glass protection for the meat looked like it needed replacing or a good clean. The bar staff were polite and efficient, the area was clean. Overall it was nice but not sure I will go back

    This was at least our 5th visit and what a shame, the carvery was not the standard we have experienced previously. The vegetables needed to be refreshed and were actually cold. Not sure we’ll be visiting again soon.
