  “Golden Glow, Black Country Special & enough refreshing Holdens drinks along with others - IPA's etc - Nice tasty Cob's to eat and more. Customers can also use Conservatory for booked Private Functions (up to 30 people), you can also mingle with other regular friendly Station customers too. - there is also some outside tables and seating too. Offers on some cask ales/Beers around £3.25 on offer Tuesdays, also can collect stamps/ tokens over different weeks after drinking/collecting 8 pint Stamps you get a free pint on the one ale. Old Station Ticket & Booking office, Parcel Store etc Designed to a strict/restricted plan (as Building is from 1800's) by local Architect Robert Clowseley (unfortunately now deceased), formerly of Bilbrook & Lapley villages. Also the very good staff look after you well, with food & drinks - oh and you can also see the trains pulling up and leaving as Pub is basically on Codsall train stations platform. The Bull public house, Love & liquor micro/midi bar, Chippy, Cash Wallbank's, Restaurant etc are just up the road in the village centre.”

  “Phoned at 3-40pm to ask if they were rammed and what time they finished serving food. Tables available and last food orders at 5pm. Into the car and then into the bar. Ordered our drinks and meals at 4-15pm. Decided on no alcohol and both ordered the Ploughman's Lunch. Generous would be an understatement. On each platter, next to the salad and the pork pie (tasty) was three slabs, not slices, but slabs of Cheddar and three thick slices of quality ham. Not wet and transparent but good ham with a proper ham taste. Plus a buttered cob. After making up and eating a cheese, ham and salad cob the rest of the meal was a knife and fork job. Carol couldn't manage everything there and then. She had to take two slabs of cheese home. General hum of chatter at the bar and other tables lent a country pub atmosphere to the place. All in all a great spur of the moment decision resulted in a lovely afternoon out. We'll be going back.”

  “After a lovely birthday meal in Birmingham, we headed back to the Station and planned to finish our evening with a drink, just as we’d started in the very place a few hours earlier. The train was a few minutes late arriving and the man serving told us we were too late. No worries we thought, they must have stopped serving at 10:30pm, so we stepped outside to order a taxi. Whilst waiting, we heard the bell go, so I popped back in to double check if we had missed last orders and was told yes, we stop at 11pm.. I was surprised because it was prior to 11am (and the bell being rung) when we arrived, but when I mentioned this, I just got a sheepish look and no comment. Rather than make a fuss, we just waited for our taxi and then went home. We’d had a lovely evening and it started so well. We love the station and often pop in for a drink and food, but this experience has left a really sour taste for us. Such a shame….”

  “I first visited here very soon after it first opened in early 2000s? & it became instantly one of my favourite pubs in this region. Though Holdens beers are also a favourite so I am biased! I try to visit regularly in fine weather and it's exactly the same, good beers and food and friendly welcome from staff. Note trains stop here hourly to and from Bham New St/Shrewsbury so do check timetables! If you miss one it means staying another hour......! 😉”

  “Despite a cancelled train and freezing weather, I almost missed this place—but what a happy accident! I’d always heard the hype, but now I’m a believer. Their Special Ale was absolutely fabulous, hands down the best beer I’ve had since moving to the Albrighton/Codsall area. So glad I took the chance—this spot truly lives up to its reputation and more! A must-visit.”

  “Regular visitor for lunch with my neighbour (fridays). Holdens beer and home cooked food by an amazing chef, "ask and ye shall receive".. My favourite food is the Chilli (with a pot of Habanero Chilli Sauce) and chips... unreal. Toby, you have 'a good thing going on' mate. Muchos Kudos. Banging. VISIT!!”

  “Fantastic pub, visited on a pub crawl of Codsall Weds 30th April. So good I visited twice ! The Holdens beers were of great quality, the cobs both hot (with gravy) and cold were excellent value and quality, friendly staff clearly enjoying being there. Full of railway memorabilia as you'd expect (it's the old waiting room and station masters house). Small garden to watch the trains go by. Located on the 'down' platform from Birmingham/Wolverhampton. Best pub in Codsall ... and there is tough competition from a few others !”
