Called in today for lunch with 6 other people in the party. Service was quick and the staff couldn't do enough for you. The food was excellent and very tasty, the belly pork dish is one off the best I have ever had. Well worth the money as all the party enjoyed it. We will definitely be returning.
My fiancé and I came here last night for our anniversary! And we absolutely loved it here. The food was beautiful we both started with the chicken pâté, for mains I had the confit duck leg and he had the burger. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive. I literally can’t not fault the place at all. I recommend 100%

Came back from Gloucester on a Friday afternoon and the traffic was horrendously bad. We decided to call in at the Saracens and have a takeaway. I fancied the fish and chips with mushy peas; my wife went for the chicken tikka masala.
My cod was coated in a CRISPY beer batter, the cod was fresh and flaky, truly succulent, the large chunky home cooked chips were superb accompanied by the mushy peas that is always that taste that compliments the meal. I thoroughly enjoyed a meal that would have cost at least 45% more in a restaurant.
My wife thought the chicken tikka masala was very tasty and the portion size was very generous. Again, the meal was in keeping with what you would expect from a top class restaurant. In conclusion I would have to say the Saracens takeaway experience was very excellent and incredibly good value.
Excellent venue with good menu choice, exceptional quality food, good service by helpful attentive staff, and great choice of draught beers/lagers 👍🏼
Lovely food and the staff were great, so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and we were even given treats and water for the dog...We will definitely be back :-)
We popped in on the way home tonight. It was busy but they managed to fit us in. The staff was friendly, the food was excellent and the beer was nice too. Could of done with some veg with my sausage and mash, but that’s all I could fault. The waitress was Emily and she was shy but she was excellent. Always smiled and asked us if everything was fine and if we enjoyed the food.
We will go back again.
Amazing service, staff were very friendly, food was excellent
Highly recommend
Popped in on passing.. such a good decision. The staff were so friendly and helpful, customer service like that is unfortunately few and far between! Had couple of drinks and a bite to eat.. food was amazing, very tasty. Both inside and out was immaculately clean and tidy. Have already told many friends of this place.. fully recommended and will be purposefully traveling that way again to visit. Thank you.
Lovely steak meal in comfortable surroundings, fantastic ambience and service.
This was a regular weds steak night treat prior to refurbishment and will continue to be into 2018 - well done team SH!
If you thought this place was good before then WOW you’ll love it even more now! Such a beautiful renovation � Staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly & helpful � Food & Drink was just the icing on the cake 5* �
Lovely first visit after being recommended. The Fish & Chips were fabulous reminded me of Scarborough harbour yum! And hubby had the Lamb roast dinner with beautiful fresh veggies. Attentive Service, cleanliness, toilets, ambiance and dining area were great. Lovely experience.
Also saw lovely outside area and outside bar for daytime dining was well presented and lovely views.
Overall loved it. Thankyou we will be back 😁
Went for a mid-week meal and was really impressed. Service was excellent, ambience really nice and food was fantastic. They even boxed up a dessert to take away with us. Highly recommend a visit for drinks, bar or restaurant meal.
Came here while on holiday in the area, the service was second to none, the burger was the best we have ever had. Great atmosphere and very clean throughout. Highly recommend
A mid week lunch with family.
Fish and chips were excellent said husband. I had chicken and ham pie. The pie and chips were lovely but the tender stem broccoli was cold and too tough to cut or eat.
Sweets were nice.
Friendly staff, nice surroundings and dining areas.
Firstly, I can't comment on the rooms, sorry.
Service very good, food excellent.
Beer mats please? I did ask. Only small matter but it would have saved my wife's skirt getting wet.
On a more serious matter.
My wife is severely disabled, why are the disabled parking ares so far from the entrance?
Would love to have given 5 stars.
Nevertheless, thank you for a lovely evening.
This pub is set in a beautiful idyllic location. The views are amazing. Plenty of tables outside. The car park isn't too big but they allow extra parking on the field.
The range of food is impressive and tasty. The staff are friendly and helpful too. Even furry friends are allowed. Wheelchair accessible too.
This is a favourite of mine as they always seem to serve a good pie. Not tonight though, as they were still using the Sunday lunch menu: roast beef and Yorkshire pud will always take priority.
The place is a short ten minute drive from central Stafford and is well worth a visit.
During the day, there is a pleasant garden with tables and one can pat the llamas, if they are feeling sociable.
This pub and hotel is located in a lovely location and the interior decor is nicely presented offering an elegant and homely feel. Staff are friendly and the food is well presented and reasonably quick in terms of service. The seating is comfortable and they offer a great array of food and drink with an Asian influence to several dishes, which was a surprise for the area but good to see some variety. We didn’t stay at the hotel but came for an evening dinner, we turned one dish away because the batter tasted stale and the color was dark, we assume the oil was probably old and when questioning it, the server immediately offered to have another made, which was far better, a nice touch. Other dishes were all excellent. Deserts were equally varied wit some classics and some modern twists. Taste was good and presentation again was nothing to complain about. Overall I’d recommend visiting the Saracens Head in Walton.
Great pub! Just back from dinner here, good food particularly Sunday roasts, super dog friendly for our chihuahuas, great for gluten free, lovely staff, will return!
Lovely location for a campervan overnight and meal. Plenty of space to park and we had the best meal we’ve had in ages. Friendly welcome from staff and gorgeous walks along the canal right next to the pub. Great menu and value for money. They do a fab offer for dinner, bed and breakfast for £130. The rooms look fab and all the staff were friendly and very helpful. We will be back!
Food was good. Asked for extra toast which took longer than you’d normally expect and one member seemed short. The woman in the blazer was very polite and friendly.
Had a meal with friends here....food was amazing. Gluten free options were fab, so much so, I had 3 starters instead of a main course. GF Tempura king prawns were gorgeous as was the GF cauliflower fritters. Will definitely recommend this place and will be going back soon. Lovely decor, very clean and very friendly staff too.
We stopped for a drink, and they have a lovely garden, good selection of nice drinks and food. Plus, a lovely cat, lamas and goats next door. Great place for families and dogs because there is a good space between the tables which is rare but makes it a comfortable experience.
Somebody told us this place was cool with campervans parking outside overnight. We called them to double check and indeed they were happy to let us stay there for free. They have a Llama farm behind the pub and we had a sound night sleep only hearing the animals. In the morning we grabbed some tasty breakfast and continued our journey. Lovely stuff and great surroundings. We don't live close by but we wished we did! They have a yearly programme of activities that sound great!
Worth the drive!
This place has the most amazing view in the outdoor seating area.
Staff was very friendly and the food was really good. I had my first Gamon steak with egg. Pretty tasty if you have never had it.
Worth the drive, especially if it’s a pretty day.
Happy Customers here.
