About The Smokey Cow

Formerly the Seven Stars, this village pub in Beckbury on the Shropshire and Staffordshire border has been given a complete renovation by new owners The Craft & Jam group. Now known as The Smokey Cow, it boasts a light and spacious restaurant with a social bar as the centrepiece and a log burner to cosy around in winter. Expect classic homemade meals, authentic smoked pit BBQ and pies ranging from beef to full of greens to gluten-free; all served with traditional sides (with some funky twists) and good ale in a rustic rural location. Live music on Fridays too.

Service was slow, despite the fact that the place was almost empty. Food was good but portions small.
Robin
Service was brilliant, Lizzie was quick to look after us and made sure we got what we wanted. The food was excellent for a Sunday lunch, worth every penny. Definitely recommend and will be going back often!
Rosie
Food was amazing will be visiting again and recommending

Food was absolutely delicious. Staff were lovely. Waited quite a while to order puddings though so we didn't order any. Could do with another member of staff. It felt like a school with the furniture and could do with a few soft furnishings.

3 of us had a Sunday roast. I booked a table and advised we had a dog. When we got there there was a bowl of water waiting. Service was quick and polite. The roast was some of the best we’ve had and the portions were substantial. Nothing to fault at all.

Without doubt the best Sunday lunch we’ve ever had. Family of 3, all said the same. Butter soft brisket, lovely roast potatoes, home made Yorkshire puddings, fresh vegetables, and plenty of it! Staff are all attentive and friendly, the beer is good too. Absolute gem of a find. We live over an hour away, and will definitely be back.

Booked a meal with 4 adults and 2 children. Upon arrival we were the only customers which we didn't mind. Drinks order taken promptly and food order followed shortly after. The starters took about 30mins to arrive which was a long time for what we ordered. The chicken wings were fresh and very good More diners had arrived during this time. There was only one staff member working front of house which delayed food coming from the kitchen due to her having to focus on pouring drinks and taking orders. Mains arrival 45mins later. Food was hot mainly and was okay. Burgers seem to be frozen low quality unfortunately but smoked sausage was relatively flavourful. The mac and cheese lacked flavour and didnt have a great texture l. Desserts had been ordered at the start yet they took another 30mins to arrive which was a long time and we ended up being there for over 2hrs. Staffing needs improving along with the quality of products offered. It wouldn't be difficult to make fresh burgers each day. Overall it was a okay meal with long waits.

Food was amazing and great value however service was shocking, waited so long for drinks, food and wasn’t even checked on. There was only 2 tables when we arrived and the one table next to us complained that they waited 15 minutes for drinks and over 30 minutes for a dessert order. I went to find a member of staff to ask for some sauce and found what I presume the manager and waitress to be sad down talking whilst people were waiting to be served at the bar. Awful service and awful atmosphere it’s a shame because the food was lovely
