The Malt Shovel

Pleasantly surprised. I found this place after searching for a wheelchair accessible restaurant close to where we had an appointment. We were lucky to get parking as this establishment has a small car park off a residential street, but the actual pub restaurant is small but lovely. The staff and patrons were friendly and the food was plentyful, hot and delicious. Dad ordered the 2 fish and chips expecting 2 small fish in batter; although, they were huge and as a self proclaimed fish expert said it was delicious (he usually complains that fish is never a good as down south). I had the chicken balti which again was well presented and delicious. I really can't fault the place.

Introduced to the Malt Shovel in 2013. Been coming on multiple occasions since and always have a good experience. Food is incredible, good sized and delicious. Staff are always welcoming and profesional. Constantly recommend to friends. Great little hidden Gem that deserves the recognition. Thumbs up from me. Well done all, keep up the good work.

What a lovely place...Food was amazing !!

Me and my fiancee got taken here for our birthday's by a friend.

The service was top notch from the young lady who served us... The food was genuinely fantastic quality throughout... There was 7 off us dining and all chose different items and although very busy the food came out quite quickly.

Booking is essential as they only have a small dining area.

We traveled from the other side of Birmingham probably 25 miles however we will definitely be going here again soon..

I had the mega mixed grill and it was touch and go whether I'd finish it, from the first to the last bite it was the business 😋😋

My fiancee had the lamb shank and she swears it's the best she's eaten anywhere.

So book in advance and treat yourself to a quality night out... Even if it's a way to travel, on my experience its will worth the extra money and effort.

I'll have to get the young ladies name next time and add it as she did an excellent job looking after us..

Thank you

Excellent food excellent service excellent value!!!

We booked our table at short notice and all our meals were absolutely amazing.
We also ordered two apple and blackberry crumbles and these were also delicious.
These were made with proper apple and blackberries and the crumble just finished them off.
I would highly recommend and we will certainly be going again.

We went to The Malt Shovel last Saturday lunchtime for a family friend’s birthday. We were there at lunchtime on opening so got great service with drinks and taking our food order. The menu had a massive selection which were all reasonably priced and what struck us was the portion sizes! They were HUGE! Very happy Diners. We really enjoyed ourselves and will be returning soon! Many thanks to the Staff for making it a good experience.

The monster mixed grill was unbelievably delicious. The steak was so tender.The best mixed grill I have ever eaten. The portion was massive and well worth the price. Would go again without question. My partners beef lasagne was really tasty as well.

Fantastic food. Large portions. The steak was cooked perfectly. The seasonal salad that came with it was lovely.
Excellent service.
Would highly recommend.

First visit tonight. Lovely pub and friendly helpful staff. We all really enjoyed our meals which were delicious. The Lemon salmon was outstanding, my wife really enjoyed her ribs and rump steak and our daughter loved the chilli.
Wonderful menu and very generous portions. Excellent value and we will be back.

Great place, brilliant food, nice staff, I will definitely go again.

Meaty heaven on a plate! Although their menu has a wide choice I have never had anything other than the mixed grill as it’s the best I’ve ever tasted. The staff are always friendly and even on particularly busy days service is always quick.

Food was quickly ordered and arrived in good time and was nice and hot. Quick to order drinks and service was spot on. Thank you

Absolutely gorgous food.
Staff were lovely and friendly.
Lovely atmosphere.
Cannot believe we have not been before... Will be going again!

Just got back from here and had we both had lovely meals. Couldn't fault it. The staff were really friendly. Really big portions. Well worth the money. We will definitely return with friends. A lovely cosy pub.

Fabulous food. Portion sizes are mooohasive!

Fantastic little hidden gem! Food was beautiful and all very quick. Staff were very friendly and the decor was stunning

Lovely food and good service, staff very helpful

Absolutely brilliant food and beer at reasonable (for the current financial climate) prices..

Tried the new pensioners menu and it was fantastic. Three courses £11.00. Food was excellent and a choice of menu. 5*.

Lovely venue. Unfortunately not large enough to host the event. Wouldve stayed longer if a covered smoke area was available
