Went for afternoon stroll around lichfield and my wife and I found ourselves looking for somewhere for tea and coffee and five minutes chilling from shopping. "Green room" lichfield garrick. What a little gem. Nice and calm relaxing atmosphere, listening to musical tracks from theatre shows and tea coffee and cakes at a very reasonable price too. Staff where very polite and cakes were lovely. Will use it again this coming Christmas for after shopping and of course not to mention our lovely local theatre. Well done the garrick.

Nice cathedral with free entrance. We did a tour up to the top of the spire. This was a guided tour which allowed us to see over Lichfield and the surrounding area as it was a beautiful day. The guides were very knowledgeable.
We would certainly recommend doing the spire tour when visiting the Cathedral.
Not for the less mobile as access is only via steep windy stairs.

Just beautiful. You can wander in during most times of the day, there's plenty to see inside, or you can just sit for some quiet thinking time. Lots of activities happen throughout the year (check the website for details)- the Luxmuralis light shows are particularly good, (based inside and outside the cathedral) although they get too crowded, which can make it difficult to see all the areas of interest. If you're visiting Lichfield, you should definitely visit this beautiful Cathedral.

Unfortunately my sister and i only attend Evensong once a year to put flowers on family grave and visit this beautiful cathedral. Mighty and majesty sums up this fantastic place of worship.

If you like the fact that lichfield is the uk's smallest city then vist the cathedral amongst the vastness of it being a monumental building look to the skies while wondering around the hall the architecture is a fantastic bit of engineering to think this is entirely built by hand is at best breath taking..
Amongst the wings is a wing dedicated to the staffordshire regiment and previous battle honours and queens colours adorn the rafters... look for the tribute to the zulu campaign made famous by micheal caine... there you can be amazed at the bond between the place of worship and that of the local regiments... the birthplace of the staffordshire regt can be found a stone throws away at the kings head a plaque outside on the wall will tell you all.

I'm not really all that in to cathedrals, but this one is gorgeous inside. I cannot comprehend the construction of such a massive structure centuries ago without the benefit of machinery. The soaring ceiling is breathtaking, and there are many nooks and crannies to explore.

This was a lovely cathedral, the statues on the outside walls, you could spend hours just looking at them. The inside was great and so impressive, excellent stained glasses and an excellent place to visit

My wife and I visited and were delighted to join in a, free, tour. Unfortunately we could only stay for about half of it. John the guide was excellent, unpretentious, and super informative. I was particularly pleased at how he prioritized the tour for our limited time.
