Turtle Bay Solihull

Verified
4.8(6650 reviews)
96/100
Turtle Bay Solihull is a cracking Caribbean bar that's buzzing with flavourful food, cheerful vibes, and top service – a real gem for a laid-back meal or night out with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is an absolute delight, packed with rich Caribbean flavours that make every bite feel like a holiday – think incredible jerk dishes and tasty cocktails that hit the spot.
  • Service is spot on; the staff are super friendly and attentive, going out of their way to make your visit memorable, just like in those glowing reviews about waiters like Keaton and Ellie.
  • The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with reggae beats, happy hour deals like 2 for 1 cocktails, and a bottomless brunch that's perfect for a relaxed catch-up with mates.
  • It's conveniently located in the heart of Solihull, near the station and shops, with handy facilities like outdoor space, wheelchair access, and free WiFi to make popping in a breeze.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be a bit too spicy for those with milder tastes, especially if you're bringing the little ones along, as one visitor mentioned their kid wasn't keen.
  • The vegan ice cream might not be everyone's cup of tea texture-wise, which could disappoint if you're after that classic creamy feel.
  • Opening hours vary a tad and might not suit early birds or late-night folks perfectly, with the typical close around 10pm or so on quieter days.

The Pup & Duckling is a delightful micro pub in Solihull, boasting brilliant beers and a warm welcome, though watch out for its limited hours and parking.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • Parking is a bit limited, with just a few spots and some roadside options that might be tricky
  • Strictly for those 18 and over, which means it's not ideal for family outings
  • As a micro pub, it can feel a tad cosy and might get busy on popular nights

The Fox on Hampton Lane is a charming little gem in Solihull, offering brilliant food and a relaxed vibe that's ideal for a memorable meal with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely stunning – fresh, seasonal, and with a simple yet elegant touch that feels almost Michelin-inspired, making every meal a real treat.
  • The atmosphere is lovely and relaxing, with natural decor and cool vibes that create a calm space, perfect for a chilled evening or a sunny lunch on the garden terrace.

  • It's a welcoming neighbourhood spot supporting local independents, with outdoor seating that adds a nice touch on warmer days.
Areas for Improvement
  • As it's a small venue, it can get booked up quickly, so you'll need to plan ahead and secure your spot with card details.
  • Freshly prepared dishes mean there might be a bit of a wait, which is understandable but could be a minor downside if you're in a rush.
  • Larger groups or special events require direct contact, which might feel a tad inconvenient if you're organising something bigger.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The ale selection is absolutely top-notch, with seven hand-pulled pints and a great range of artisan beers that really hit the spot for any beer enthusiast.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable – they remember your face and offer that warm, welcoming service that makes you feel right at home.

  • Even though it's just snacks on offer, the place keeps things simple and authentic, which is perfect if you're after a no-fuss pint and a chat.
Areas for Improvement
  • There's no proper food menu, just snacks, so if you're hoping for a hearty meal with your drink, you might need to head elsewhere.
  • It doesn't have a website or much of an online presence, which could make it a bit tricky to check opening times or what's on tap before you pop in.
  • As it's not claimed by the owners, you might not get the latest updates or special events, which is a shame for staying in the loop.

The Farm Inn is a delightful spot in Solihull, offering tasty food and a warm welcome in a historic setting, though it can get a bit lively and pricey at times.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely delicious, with standout roasts and desserts that really hit the spot for a hearty meal.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • It's set in a beautiful, historic Grade II listed farmhouse with a relaxed countryside vibe that's perfect for unwinding.
  • They've got a great selection of drinks and cocktails, and the live music adds a fun, lively touch to the evenings.
  • Ample parking and a well-managed atmosphere make it easy for groups or events, so it's spot on for social gatherings.
Areas for Improvement
  • The music can get a bit too loud at times, making it tricky to have a proper chat, especially early in the evening.
  • Lighting is often dimmed quite a lot, which might make the place feel more like a nightclub than a cosy pub.
  • Some menu items seem a tad overpriced, like the sharers, and there are signs that changes under new management are affecting things.
  • It doesn't always live up to the traditional pub feel, with a few reviewers noting it comes across as more of a restaurant with a party vibe.

The Dingle is a charming community pub in Solihull that's buzzing with friendly vibes, affordable drinks, and live entertainment, but it does have the odd hiccup with promises not always delivered.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • It's got a really welcoming atmosphere, with customers chatting away and a community vibe that's hard to beat.
  • They offer unbeatable drink deals and a great selection, perfect for catching up with mates without breaking the bank.
  • Live sports and entertainment like football, rugby, and music keep things lively, plus there's a pool table for some fun.
  • The outside area is spot on for families or enjoying a sunny day, and there's plenty of parking which is a bonus.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some entertainment promises fall flat, like the Irish dancer who doesn't show up and ends up being unhelpful behind the bar.
  • It can feel a bit like a tourist trap at times, with certain aspects seeming more about making a quick buck than genuine fun.
  • Occasionally, service might not be up to scratch, as a few folks have mentioned staff being a tad rude on their visits.

The Vaults is a charming real ale bar in Knowle with a warm welcome and great vibes, though it has the odd hiccup with beer quality.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making every visit feel like catching up with old mates.
  • When the beer is on form, it's absolutely excellent – a real treat for ale enthusiasts.
  • The atmosphere is cosy and traditional, giving off that good old pub vibe that's hard to beat.
  • It's dog friendly, which is a lovely touch if you're popping in with your four-legged companion.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some pints can be a bit off, like sour or flat, which is disappointing for a real ale bar.
  • The selection of ales might feel a tad limited, not quite living up to the 'real ale bar' promise.
  • Snacks like the warmed pork options have been criticised for tasting stale, so you might want to stick to the basics.

Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • The food is spot on – fresh, hot, and full of flavour, with great options like pizzas and fish and chips that hit the spot every time.

Areas for Improvement

  • With an overall rating of 4.3, it suggests that while recent feedback is glowing, not every visit is perfect for everyone.

Slug & Lettuce in Solihull is a lively cocktail bar that's spot on for a fun evening with mates, boasting brilliant service and events, though the outdoor spot needs a bit more attention.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The inside is spotlessly clean with fantastic decor and lighting that really creates a welcoming vibe, making it a pleasure to spend time there.
  • The staff are absolute gems – friendly, attentive, and always ready with spot-on drink suggestions or personalised touches that make you feel looked after.
  • It's brilliant for special occasions, with fun events like Flamingo Bingo and afternoon teas that turn a regular night out into something memorable.

  • The atmosphere is warm and inclusive, perfect for groups or families during the day, with options like live music and outdoor seating for a relaxed catch-up.
Areas for Improvement
  • The outdoor area doesn't quite match the inside's standards – it's a nice space but could do with a thorough clean on the tables, seats, and menus.
  • While it's generally great, some reviews mention it feeling a tad inconsistent in certain spots, so it might not be flawless every visit.

The Fieldhouse in Solihull is a right cosy spot for enjoying top-quality pub grub, catching up with mates, or relaxing with the family in a welcoming, well-kept environment.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely brilliant – from the fixed price menus to the kids' options and even vegan choices, there's something for everyone, and it's all deliciously well-priced.
  • The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they make you feel right at home, whether you're popping in for a quick drink or hosting a special occasion like a family gathering.
  • It's a fantastic spot for families and dog owners, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the recent makeover has made the place feel really relaxed and pleasant.
  • Free parking and an easy location near the M42 and Widney Manor train station make it super convenient, plus it's close to lovely spots like parks for a post-pub stroll.
  • The pub is spotlessly clean, right down to the toilets, and it's perfect for all sorts of get-togethers, with a great selection of drinks to boot.
Areas for Improvement
  • The typical closing time around 8 PM might feel a tad early if you're after a late-night session, though it does vary a bit on Sundays.
  • With its popularity, it can get quite busy at peak times, so you might want to plan ahead to avoid any waits, even if service is generally quick.
  • While the menu's got loads on offer, it might not have every niche preference covered, so if you're after something really unusual, you could be out of luck.

Pros and Cons

Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be a bit pricey, which might put a dent in your wallet if you're planning a longer night out.
  • The food options are somewhat limited, so if you're after a wide variety, you might find yourself wanting more choices.
  • There have been a few hiccups with overcharging due to till issues, which can be a bit frustrating when you're trying to settle up.
  • Some pizzas have been described as dry with not much topping, so it might not hit the spot every time.
  • The cooking smells, like smoke from the kitchen, can be a tad overpowering and might spoil the ambiance for some.

The Forest Bar & Restaurant is a cosy little gem in Dorridge, serving up tasty grub and a laid-back vibe, but watch out for the bustle on peak nights.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think delicious fillet of beef, generous Sunday roasts, and cracking wings, especially with that £1.50 deal on Wednesdays!
  • Portions are really hearty, so you'll leave feeling well satisfied without breaking the bank.
  • Service can be top-notch when they're on form, like that bar tender who proactively swapped out a flat coke without a fuss – it's those little touches that make a visit memorable.
  • The atmosphere is nicely chilled and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed catch-up over a few beers or a meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty noisy on busy evenings, like Saturdays, which might make it hard to have a proper chat.
  • Service sometimes falls short when things get hectic, with orders going missing or taking a while, as one reviewer had to chase up sides.
  • Vegetarian options are a bit limited; it's mostly just the veggie roast, so if you're after something more varied, you might feel a tad short-changed.
  • Not every dish hits the mark for everyone – that kimchi on the chicken burger wasn't to one person's taste, so it pays to stick with what you know.

Areas for Improvement

The Sharman's Cross is a welcoming local pub in Solihull with solid food and a community vibe, though it's not without a few service snags that could trip you up.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • The food is spot on – think tasty sizzling skillets and flame-grilled burgers that hit the spot, especially with those great value daily offers.
  • It's got a lovely large outside seating area, perfect for soaking up the sun with a pint on a nice day.
  • They really get involved in the community, supporting local charities and even offering their function space for free – it's heartwarming to see.
  • Overall, it's a comfortable spot with honest, fair prices that make it easy on the wallet for a good night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • There have been some hiccups with payments, like getting double-charged and having to wait ages for a refund, which can really put a dampener on things.
  • Food portions aren't always as promised – for instance, you might end up with half the garlic bread you expected, which feels a bit disappointing.
  • Occasionally, the food prep isn't quite up to scratch, like chips going soggy from being tucked under the fish, making for a less than ideal meal.
  • Service can be hit or miss; while they're generally polite, sorting out issues on the spot isn't always their strong suit.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, always making you feel welcome and looked after.

Areas for Improvement

  • Some menu items, like certain mocktails, can be unavailable, which is a shame when you're in the mood for something specific.
  • Parking is free but often gets busy and chaotic, making it tricky to sort out when you're arriving.
  • It can get really crowded, especially on nice days, so you might end up waiting a while for service or a table.

Greswolde Arms is a charming country pub in Knowle that's earned its stripes for hearty food and warm service, though it has a few quirks that keep it from being perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely brilliant – think quality pub classics like mixed grills and seasonal specials that are cooked to perfection, leaving you feeling well satisfied.
  • The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they really go the extra mile to make your visit enjoyable, just like chatting with old mates.
  • It's got a cosy, comforting atmosphere in a historic spot on Knowle's high street, ideal for a relaxed meal or even a stay in their clean and comfortable rooms.
  • They're always up for something special, like their new spring-summer menu or Sunday roasts, which are perfect for gathering with friends and family.
Areas for Improvement
  • The layout can be a bit of a puzzle with maze-like hallways and plenty of stairs, making it feel a tad old-fashioned and tricky to navigate.
  • The team sometimes seem stretched thin, juggling bar and reception duties, which might mean waits or a less smooth experience during busy times.
  • Don't forget to pop your car registration into the machine in the car park – it's easy to overlook and could put a dampener on your visit.

Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes aren't cooked fresh on site and are just warmed up, which might leave you wanting more in terms of that homemade feel.
  • There can be long waits for food, and it's hit or miss with quality – one visit might have cold starters, while another is spot on.
  • It gets busy, and that can lead to inconsistent service, so if you're after a quick bite, it might not always deliver.
  • A few experiences have been disappointing, like food not living up to expectations, which could put a dampener on your evening.

Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • Service is spot on – the staff are friendly, helpful, and go the extra mile, making you feel right at home, whether you're popping in for a quick bite or a full evening out.

  • With a solid overall rating and plenty of glowing reviews, it's clear this place knows how to deliver a good time, especially for those after authentic flavours with a contemporary vibe.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be hit or miss; for instance, the butter chicken was a bit too sweet and seemed like it might have come from a can, which was a letdown compared to the rest.
  • There might be occasional inconsistencies in food quality, as not every item lives up to the hype, so it's worth sticking to the crowd-pleasers if you're unsure.
  • While it's generally a great spot, the operating hours can vary a tad, which might catch you out if you're planning a spontaneous visit on a Sunday.

  • It's got a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with staff who often provide top-notch service and a smile, making you feel right at home.

  • Spacious beer garden and free parking make it a convenient spot to relax, whether it's for a quick drink or a full meal.
  • Easy to reach, just off the M42, and it's open every day, ideal for spontaneous get-togethers.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be hit or miss – some visits end with cold or tasteless dishes, which is a real shame for a special occasion like Mother's Day.
  • The atmosphere might feel a bit soulless inside, not quite living up to that cosy pub charm you'd expect from the outside.
  • There are quirky rules, like dogs only being allowed on carpeted areas, which could limit where you can sit and enjoy your time.
  • Service isn't always enthusiastic, and little things like delays in getting cutlery or a more upbeat team could make a big difference.
  • Some facilities, like the toilets, are a tad dated, which might detract from the overall experience.

  • They sometimes prioritise delivery orders over people waiting in the pub, which feels a bit unfair when you're sat there getting peckish.
  • Food quality isn't always reliable; for instance, a Christmas lunch was disappointing with tinned veg and frozen bits, even if the turkey was alright.

  • They've got a fantastic function room that's perfect for special occasions, and it's flexible enough to let you bring your own touches, which is a real bonus for events like wakes or parties.
Areas for Improvement
  • There isn't a website listed, so it's a bit tricky to check out menus or events online before heading over, which might put some off if they're planning ahead.
  • The operating hours seem a tad confusing with varying schedules, like some Sundays ending early, so you might want to double-check to avoid disappointment if you're hoping for a late one.
  • While the reviews we've seen are glowing, the overall rating of 4.1 suggests there might be the odd off day or inconsistency in service that isn't captured here, so it pays to go in with realistic expectations.

This pub has such a great vibe. Professional and polite staff. Many different show nights that cater to all. It really is a brilliant little pub.

Hillfield Farm is a welcoming pub in Shirley offering a cracking carvery and family vibes, though service can vary and it's best for laid-back meals.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The carvery here is absolutely spot on – it's hot, fresh, and packed with a brilliant variety of veggies and meats that really hit the spot.
  • The staff are so welcoming and friendly; they make you feel right at home from the moment you walk in, which adds a lovely touch to the whole experience.
  • It's super family-friendly with plenty of facilities like a car park, WiFi, and even an indoor play area, making it ideal for a relaxed day out.
  • Being inexpensive, it's a wallet-friendly option for a good meal, and the breakfast and roast deals sound like proper treats to start your day or weekend.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit inconsistent, especially in a busy all-you-can-eat setup, where you might not get as much attention as you'd hope.
  • Seating arrangements aren't always perfect – you might end up in the kids' play area when you'd rather not, which could put a damper on things.
  • It's not the place if you're after a quiet, fancy dinner; the vibe is more casual and pub-like, so it might feel a tad overwhelming at times.

Olton Tavern in Solihull is a solid spot for good pub grub and a friendly chat, with decent prices and a welcoming feel, though it's not without a few niggles like pre-packed meals and constant sports on the telly.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is tasty and comes in generous portions at reasonable prices, making it a great value for a casual meal.
  • Service is quick and friendly, with staff who are warm and welcoming, which really adds to the relaxed vibe.
  • They've got well-kept beer and a good selection of drinks, perfect for settling in with mates.
  • The atmosphere is lovely, whether you're enjoying the beer garden on a sunny day or getting cosy indoors.
  • It's family-friendly with options for kids, vegetarians, and vegans, plus it's handy for events or gatherings.
Areas for Improvement
  • The food is pre-packed rather than freshly cooked, which might disappoint if you're after something homemade.
  • Sports like football are on every screen, so it might not be the quiet spot you're hoping for if you're not a fan.
  • You have to register your parking, which can be a bit of a faff when you're just popping in for a pint.
  • There have been occasional issues, like pets in the bar area, that could put some folks off.

The Three Horseshoes is a cracking little pub in Birmingham that's all about friendly vibes, tasty grub at good prices, and a welcoming community feel – perfect for a casual catch-up with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and always ready with a warm welcome, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • The food is spot on – fresh ingredients, plenty of options including vegan and vegetarian choices, and those sizzling skillets and burgers are real crowd-pleasers at fair prices.
  • It's got a great community vibe, with events like bingo and parties that bring people together, and they're even supportive of local charities.
  • The atmosphere is just right for relaxing with mates, whether you're watching the sport or enjoying a meal, and there's ample seating inside and out, plus easy parking.
  • Overall, it's clean, tidy, and maintains a consistent quality that keeps folks coming back for more.
Areas for Improvement
  • There might be the odd off day with the food; one person mentioned it looked good but didn't quite hit the mark, which is a shame if you're hoping for perfection every time.
  • It could feel a bit hit-or-miss for first-timers, as not everyone has the same experience, so it's worth checking out for yourself.

The White Swan in Solihull is your typical Wetherspoon pub – affordable and buzzing, but it has its ups and downs with service and grub.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's a classic Wetherspoon spot with reasonably priced drinks and meals, making it a great go-to for a casual catch-up without breaking the bank.
  • The atmosphere can be lively, especially on weekends, with plenty of groups enjoying themselves, which adds to that welcoming pub vibe.
  • They're open bright and early until late, seven days a week, so it's handy for a quick pint or a relaxed breakfast any time.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some folks have mentioned the staff can be a bit offhand at times, which takes away from the overall experience.
  • Food quality seems hit or miss – things like eggs not cooked right or items missing from orders have left a few people disappointed.
  • Prices might not feel as cheap as you'd expect from a Spoons these days, with some surprises at the till that could catch you out.

Very decent Spoons. Like everywhere, Solihull is in decline but the clientele in this pub was well above e the average. Lots of groups of good people on a Saturday lunchtime.

Orleans Smokehouse in Solihull is a buzzing spot for tasty Southern BBQ and warm vibes, but it's got its ups and downs with food consistency.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is packed with bold, smoky BBQ flavours that really hit the spot, just like a proper Southern-style feast.
  • Staff are super friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome and looked after from the get-go.
  • It's got a cosy, family-friendly atmosphere, with heated outdoor areas that are perfect for a relaxed catch-up with friends or family.
  • They're open seven days a week with decent hours, so it's easy to pop in for a bite whenever the mood strikes.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be overcooked and end up a bit dry or tough, which takes the edge off the enjoyment.
  • Portions don't always match the price – like those small starters that leave you wanting more for your money.
  • It's solid but not always standout; a few visits might feel just average rather than truly memorable.
  • Experiences can vary, so you might have a great night one time and a disappointing one the next.

The Hobs Meadow is a charming Solihull pub that's all about that warm, community vibe – brilliant for families, events, and a good pint, though it has its quirks like any local spot.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff at The Hobs Meadow are absolutely brilliant – they're so welcoming and go out of their way to make your visit special, whether it's for a family gathering or a quiet drink.
  • It's a proper family-friendly spot with a fantastic play area for the kids and a dog-friendly beer garden that's ideal for relaxing on a sunny day or even when the weather's a bit dodgy.
  • They've got a cracking selection of drinks, from real ales and Guinness to low or no-alcohol options, and the food is spot on – think hearty pub grub that's perfect for celebrations or just a casual meal.
  • The atmosphere is spot on for all sorts of occasions, with events like quizzes, darts, and loads of sports on the big screen, making it a great place to catch up with mates or host a party.
  • It's clean, fun, and has free WiFi, plus plenty of space both inside and out, which makes it feel welcoming and community-oriented.
Areas for Improvement
  • While the recent reviews are glowing, the overall rating sits at 3.9 out of 5, suggesting that not every visit is perfect – there might be the odd off day with service or consistency.
  • The opening hours seem a tad confusing based on what's listed, with variations for the same day, which could lead to a bit of disappointment if you're planning a trip and things don't align.
  • As a moderate-priced spot, it might feel a smidge pricey for everyday drinks if you're on a tight budget, especially when compared to some other local pubs.
  • It's popular for events and families, so on busier days, it could get a bit crowded, making it harder to find a quiet corner if that's what you're after.

Old Spot Pub Co

A fresh-faced pub in Solihull that's got potential for a cosy daytime pint, but it's still a bit of an unknown quantity.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's conveniently tucked away in Shirley, Solihull, making it a handy spot if you're local or passing through.
  • They keep things straightforward with opening hours from 9am to 5pm on five days a week, which is ideal for a relaxed daytime visit or a quick catch-up over a drink.
Areas for Improvement
  • Their website is currently suspended, so it's a bit tricky to get more details or check the menu before heading over.
  • With no reviews or ratings to go on, it's hard to get a sense of the vibe, the food, or the service – it might be a new spot still building its reputation.
  • The business isn't claimed by the owners, which suggests they might not be fully on top of their online presence, potentially making it feel a tad under the radar.
