After a walk on the hills with my brother and girlfriend, we came to the Chase Inn for lunch. This was our first visit here so were not sure what to expect. I have to say that this is one of the best all round experiences I have had for a few years. It is a comfortable albeit bijou pub restaurant tucked away in the Malvern Hills. The menu is limited but there is certainly something for everyone. My brother hade Chilli Con Carne with rice and chips, my girlfriend had Ham, Egg and chips and I had a Double Burger, Chips and Coleslaw. We all enjoyed our food which was well cooked and very tasty. My brother is quite food fussy but delighted in the chilli, commenting how flavoursome it was. The chips also had an extra something which I found delicious. Overall the food was excellent and, with two bottles of spring water and a pint of larger shandy, came to a reasonable £54. The staff were absolutely delightful and deserve a special thank you. A well earned 5 stars.

Beer was good and a nice pub visually, but the food was really poor. We waited 40 minutes for the food to arrive and the pub wasn t busy. When it did arrive, we couldn t cut the overcooked pie pastry as it was so hard,; all the food was extremely salty. Overall, not a good experience foodwise.

December 22, 2023

As lovely as this little pub is with stunning views we booked a table for 10 people for Sunday lunch at 12.30 to celebrate our daughters 40th birthday. One of the first to arrive we ordered lunch. Just over one hour and forty minutes later we were still waiting for service! Food finally arrived the meat varied. A couple of small roast potatoes only on a couple of plates with no yorkshire puddings on two plates (they had ran out!). Vegetables quickly blanched so extremely hard, we couldnt cut through the broccoli and parsnips. We were not charged for this disaster of a birthday Sunday lunch but they should be better organised. If they have reserved tables they should be given priority and not serve people first who have not booked.

This was just a quick lunchtime (snack!) visit having chosen the pub for the view presented on the website! Sandwich, whitebait and cheesy chips were all pleasant. The garden is reached via a narrow and slightly uninviting pathway around the side of the pub, making it a bit of a trek to go the the bar or use facilities. They do however bring food outside once youve ordered. The views are extensive from the upper terrace of the garden area.

The Chase is a favourite haunt of ours with many happy memories, especially as a welcome spot for lunch when walking the length of the Malvern Hills. The weather was kind to us, so we were able to sit outside and enjoy the views of the Herefordshire countryside. The pub was busy and, understandably, the sandwiches we ordered took their time to arrive. However, the service was friendly and the food was excellent. I thoroughly recommend the Herefordshire Beef sandwiches - great layers of tasty beef! For our vegetarians the vegan sausage sandwiches also went down well. Excellent beer! Some of our group were not sure about continuing the walk up to the north end of the hills but the lunch and the rest meant that enough energy was restored to continue. We look forward to our next visit!
