For a family establishment, we was very disappointed with the treatment we received. Not child friendly at all even tho they cater for children.

Fabulous meal as usual. Enjoyed the evening as usual. I am a regular visitor to The Bear and service and food is always of high standard. Staff are wonderful especially Debbie tonight. You are an asset to your team.

Watched the big fight and it was brilliant atmosphere and result you really can't Go to Bearwood and not go in to the Bear for a cheeky ale or 5

We had a Friday night reunion at the Bear. It was very busy, as long as you are advised the food might take a while it's not an issue. I had 8oz rump steak medium rare. Exceptional that's all I can say. Definitely will be

Me and my boyfriend found this pub in November and probably been there 20 times since. We usually go to another pub down the road but the service has been terrible recently so we ventured out. The Christmas decs are lovely the food is great very big portions and great value for money ,selection of drinks and offers are good but most of all the customer service from the staff is excellent. I have never been in a pub with better trained friendly staff. Always chatty smiley give good recommendations, inform you of upcoming events. This is the main reason I keep coming back because the staff are amazing!

I came over from Australia this week to visit my son who is studying at Birmingham University. We visited the Bear for a beer tonight, and stayed for dinner. My son had the katsu chicken, I had the fish and chips. Outstanding. Delicious, really well cooked, great portion sizes and the two meals together were £11.50. Add a couple of beers and a great experience for less than 20 quid. To top it off, the venue had very festive decorations, and the staff and service were first class. 2 staff members checked in with us to make sure everything was good with the meal. A bit (delightfully) unexpected given the experience at many other pubs. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
Always a great pint in the Bear. Staff are always welcoming and have time for a chat, service is top tier as is beer selection.

Ordered an English breakfast this morning and was disgusted by the service ,I ordered breakfast with 3 slices of toast ,I got the breakfast and the sausages were tough and I had no toast ,when I explained I ordered 3 slices of toast I was given 2 slices of bread and butter ,which I refused and asked again for toast meanwhile my breakfast was stone cold ,she then returned with 2 slices of toast when I asked for 3 ,by this time the food was stone cold and she gave me the toast with jam and marmalade but only 2 slices ,it was my day off and treated my self to breakfast with my sister what a disappoint this experice was as I also deal with food service to a higher level.what they should of done was started again and done me a fresh breakfast with the 3 slices of toast I'd asked for ,but instead choose to leave me with a cold breakfast as they where to lazy to correct the issue correctly. I've been in here before and there is a young mixed race girl who works here she has excellent communication skills and gets everything right she serves you with a warm smile asks if your meal is OK she is a professional at her job so I praise her she makes you welcome

Wonderful service but I have to point out that Josh was so lovely and attentive I’ve been in multiple times and whether I’m having food or a drink he is always checking everything is okay and running around working away he is a true asset to the pub and
