Meet our friends for our monthly get together after many months of trying different pubs have settled on this one for the last 3 months. Food drinks and service all first class, always try different beers and food on each visit. Selection of beers on the board makes you feel like a kid in a sweet shop what shall I have, the food is the same. Great friendly staff and friendly atmosphere can't wait for next month.

Well I ain't I'm dreamin' of Roy's pie! You know how it is, it's hard to find a decent one. If the gravy's nice, it's usually got gristly bits, or if everything else is fine then the pastry's naff. But not this one, oh no, this one is most definitely one of the best I've ever tasted in my entire life! Thank you BCA for a most enjoyable birthday meal :-)''' This place is always a real pleasure to visit.

A next one of our regular hunts. This pub has ample supply of wonderful real ale & cider to try. Staff & quiz guys Jimm & Michael are brilliant. Quiz is the third Thursday of every month starting promptly at 8pm. Food is now served daily up to 8pm, & everything I’ve tried has been excellent so far. This is the best pub in Walsall area.

So many wonderful aspects to this local town-centre pub. The building itself, interior and exterior, is a sheer delight! The food is perfectly-pitched local fayre, generously proportioned and reasonably priced. The choice of draught ales, sixteen at least, means there's always a great choice of wonderful beers. And the friendly staff couldn't be more welcoming.

Visited for lunch on a Sunday (although we didn't want a roast dinner). All three meals were delicious and the wait wasn't too long - about 25 mins. Only reason I haven't give a five is that I had to pay for meals and drinks separately, however this has not put us off and we will definitely be back for another visit. wereddelicious

This was our first visit here on Friday 18th September, early evening with friends for a bite to eat + drinks.
The atmosphere felt authentic which perhaps went with the decor. It was engaging seeing the old pictures of old Walsall decorated around the pub. We ordered some Food & Drinks by the delightful barmaid, her customer service was exceptional. Very well presented, a picture behind the bar.
We didn't have to wait very long for our food, when it arrived the food looked appealing + big portion sizes. The barmaid checked back that our meals were satisfactory + we were happy which I found was enchanting. As some pubs bring out the meals & forget that you exist. It was organised + traditional. Customers are definitely looked after. Such a fantastic range of real ales with a clear menu for the style, colour + ABV.
We will definitely visit the Black Country Arms again

This is a very friendly and inviting public house. Always a wide variety of beers (14 regularly changing) and 2 real ciders. The food is of an excellent quality and not over priced. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Would recommend a visit.

I was in Walsall visiting my son. He suggested we went out a quick drink. He was hungry and wanted something to eat. He had the 2 course Sunday Lunch, roast chicken and bread pudding for dessert. I had a pint of Thatchers Gold and Dan also had Cider, a pint of Thatchers Cedar Valley. There is a massive choice of draft beers. I browsed the menu and also decided I would also have something to eat. I chose the Faggot and mushy pea pie, usual but very nice.
The food was very nice and arrived in a reasonable time. This is the 3rd time I have visited the Black Country arms and will certainly be visiting again.

I previously wrote a glowing report about the Black Country Arms. Having been impressed on our first visit, we decided to return with a friend, but this time we were slightly disappointed. When we placed our order we were told that it might take between 30 and 40 minutes, since a party of 14 people had made a reservation and were in front of us. After nearly an hour we were told that they had only one brie and beetroot tart available, when we had ordered two. I re-selected, opting for a potato and onion pie. It was OK, but nothing special, and we felt they ought to have told us when we first placed the order.
The service was friendly, and the waitress apologised for the delay. We did feel, however, that a party of 14 was not enormous (and they were expected after all), so we would have expected slightly more prompt service. Luckily we were not in a rush, and will probably give the Black Country Arms another chance. Better luck next time, we hope!
