The Centurion, Tamworth. A good pub–lunch stop off the M42 / A5 Junction

Follow-up to The Rising Sun, A5, Brownhills | Good food, service & Spuds! from Rob McGonigle on Internet Search & SMEs

The last time I passed The Centurion Pub-Restaurant just off the A5 in Tamworth it was closed for refurbishment. Today I found that the food was freshly cooked with good ingredients and well presented. It is still using a lot of the Brewers Fayre menu and gives Nectar points but the branding is now missing. Are they starting a more up-market chain? Typical of many places the map markers were all wrong so I have annotated Google Maps. The Centurion is here .

The link above is to my Rising Sun post that has generated a steady stream of visitors, probably because it is difficult to locate on the maps too. No I am not planning to create a collection of food pubs on the A5!

The Rising Sun, A5, Brownhills | Good food, service & Spuds!

I was on the road yesterday and found that my route took me past an old favourite stop, The Rising Sun, Chester Road North, the A5, Brownhills.

I found that the service was still friendly with a varied menu and selected the fish pie. The pie had varied fish and seafood and was tasty as usual but the potatoes brought out the spud snob in this irishman. New season boiled Maris Pipers, perfect!
