Lovely food. These guys have worked super hard through the Pandemic to continue to serve the community one way or another.. they are currently doing delicious take away food, including BBQ packs, fish and chips, coffee and ice cream. Well worth a look at their menu.

Traveler advice
Getting around
You’ll need a car or to love a good walk or cycle...
There is much to enjoy out here, but local transport is limited. However once you get out of Coles Green there are trains between Worcester and Malvern and many taxi companies. Numbers are in the information pack in the B and B.
