About This Pub
Ah, Verraco Lounge – it's one of those places that really hits the spot if you're after a relaxed spot in Bromsgrove for a bite or a bevvy any time of day. From the reviews, the food stands out as a real winner, with a menu full of variety that caters to all sorts of tastes and dietary needs, like their gluten-free and vegan options – I love how they've made it inclusive so no one feels left out. The deals are a nice touch too; things like Tapas Tuesdays or the Cocktail Club make it feel like a cheeky treat without costing a fortune, and it's brilliant for families or even bringing the dog along, with games and toys to keep things lively. The atmosphere is what I'd call properly homely, shifting from morning coffee vibes to evening wind-downs, and it seems to foster that community spirit we all appreciate. On the flip side, though, the ordering process – whether it's at the bar or through an app – can come across as a bit detached, making it harder to chat about the menu or get recommendations, which might not suit everyone, especially if you're after that personal touch. And while the drinks are solid, the beer choices aren't exactly extensive, so if you're a craft ale enthusiast, you might find it lacking. All in all, it's a solid choice for a casual meet-up, with plenty to enjoy, but keeping those little niggles in mind will help you have the best time possible.

Wasn't expecting so much and went in as it was convenient at that point in time but actually really enjoyed our meal and a menu that had many choices covering many types of food styles. You can order at the bar or via app which is a bit impersonal and males it awkward to ask quesabout dishes but not a deal breaker really. Service was pretty quick which was good as we had parking running out.
Fantastic food, attentive service throughout the day from morning coffee to afternoon cocktails and evening meals. Selection of beer is limited but the low alcohol beer is very good. Good choice of lager and the Hofmeister is nicely chilled.
My only very small criticism might be that at lunchtime it can be noisy (in a nice way) with a lot of Mums with very small children. But 45 years ago I would have loved somewhere like this to take my own children and grandchildren later so I’m just old!
Great wheelchair access and disabled toilet near the bar area. Easy to order from the tables and a very efficient way to get managers to take special allergen orders. These are always brought separately to the table and carefully flagged. Generally this brings the service up to an excellent standard.
Nice Tapas place, lovely food, but you have to place the order at the counter, or through QR code, which I'm not a fan of.
Lovely lunch today. We had a certain amount of time due to being on a break and service and kitchen were so quick. Food was gorgeous. Will definitely return.
Thanks to the staff. ❤️
Fantastic food, friendly service, great ambience and decor, and dog, wheelchair and kid friendly.
We came for lunch on the first day of opening. They serve all-day brunch, lunch and dinner, such as flatbreads, salads, burgers, and tapas. They cater well for gluten and vegan, and have a kids menu and colouring in paper and crayons. They have special offers on Monday and Tuesday nights after 5pm. All the portions looked delicious and well-sized. We were impressed at the flavours, variety and portions of our lamb flatbread and Mexican rice bowl.
The restaurant was well staffed and ran very smoothly. All the staff were friendly, polite, and welcoming.
The decor is brilliant. Funky lampshades, variety of prints and artwork on the walls throughout the restaurant. The music was at just the right level and played a good alternative mix.
It was great to see a restaurant thriving, people having a great time, and to have this chain open in Bromsgrove. It plugs a much needed gap in the restaurant/ cafe market.
We also came a month after it opened. It continues to be a thriving and welcoming place with fast friendly service and great quality food.
Highly recommend coming here!
