About This Pub
Ah, Farmer John's in Streetly – it's one of those pubs that really pulls you in with its greenery and country views, making you forget you're just on the edge of suburbia. I've got to say, the highlights are what make it shine; the staff are genuinely lovely, always greeting you with a smile and getting your order sorted in no time, which is just brilliant for a quick pint and a bite. The food menu is packed with classics that hit the spot, like those flavourful ribs and chicken combos that folks rave about, and it's ace for family outings or even bringing the dog along for a relaxed afternoon in the pub garden. They're also throwing in some tempting offers, like discounts on mains, which adds a nice touch for keeping things affordable. On the flip side, it's not perfect – there have been a few grumbles about meals not quite living up to expectations, like when something comes out burnt and no one pops over to check if everything's alright, which can dampen the mood a bit. Overall, though, it's a welcoming spot that's worth a visit if you're in the area; just go with an open mind, and you'll likely have a cracking time soaking up the good hospitality and making some memories.

We were greeted by a friendly member of the team and shown to our seats, explained that we order our selection at the bar and to add table number. Smooth ordering with a very short wait at the till. Drinks were given immediately and just 10 minutes later our meals arrived which were hot and tasty and the waitress asked us if we needed anything else. We are our meals and stayed for around an hour after having more drinks. The atmosphere was lively and family friendly and the decor very nice and traditional. Definitely coming back.
We had a 70th birthday party. Over 20 people with food. We were served by Leia and Georgia. The food was so fast and professional . Nothing was any trouble for extras. Above and beyond expectations. Thanks to the kitchen and bar staff as well. Really enjoyed it. We will be back Manu thanks from all of us.
Lovely meal this evening with friends. Great service and friendly welcome. Served swiftly and food arrived in good time. Special shout out to Leia who brought the laughs while clearing our table. We will definitely return! The chicken combo was delicious btw!
The lady who served me was absolutely lovely, very helpful, and couldn't do enough. The food came out, and the chicken and ribs were lovely. I had the Megamix grill, and it was burnt, and it was disgusting. Nobody came over to the table and asked how the meal was at all. Asked about a container to take the rest of the ribs home, but I was told I could have some tin foil, so I waited 15 minutes, and then I left because I was sick of waiting.
Visited Farmer John’s in Sutton Coldfield and had a great time. The Ultimate Ribs and Chicken Platter was excellent, especially the pork ribs, which were packed with flavor. Enjoyed it with a pint, making for a satisfying meal.
Service was friendly and efficient, with food arriving quickly. The atmosphere is always enjoyable, making it a great spot to return to.
Highly recommend and will definitely be back!
