I have been attending their Great Barr branch for a few years now on a regular 6-weekly basis. As soon as you walk into the reception you are greeted with a friendly welcome that puts you at ease. My podiatrist - Becky - is, quite simply, fantastic. She is professional, takes time to explain anything you are unsure about, fully competent in what she is doing and a total perfectionist. And able to give vital foot health advice as and when required. She is super friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
Due to leg length discrepancy, I also had a biomechanical assessment by Neil who provided me with bespoke insoles which has made my walking so much more comfortable. Honestly, put your trust in these guys and you won’t be disappointed. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

All staff are very friendly and provide a relaxed service in a comfortable environment. Esther is very professional and knowledgeable in foot matters. A very good service at a reasonable price.

Thank you to all the staff at Walsall Wood Tyres & Services for the quality repair on my van. I was kept constantly updated by the team throughout the repair, which was a really nice touch.
I’ve been using Walsall Wood Tyres & Services for a number of years now, and they have never let me down. Excellent service as always, I would highly recommended!

Needs updating and a deep clean
Friendly Staff and comfy bed, beautiful location.
Stained carpets throughout the hotel, dirty shower/bath, breakfast was just ok- given small amount of sauce, one of anything e.g one sausage and one rasher of bacon.

A beautiful visit but personally it's not especially worth the admission fee. There are so many delights I can see for free with my national trust card.

Absolutely amazing. Food great, toilets very clean. Dinosaur area is just fantastic. My 2 grandsons (4 and 5) were so excited. Surpassed my expectations. Then the zoo itself was lovely. Not.too huge, which was great for little legs. The beach and pool at the end was a huge surprise. My grandsons stripped off and ran straight in with their pants :-) fantastic day Thank you

We visited yesterday and had a fantastic day! It was about 26⁰C so some animals were hiding in the shade but we got great views of lots of them, especially those that we went along to the talk for. The talks were very good, my 8 year old listened to it all, about 10-15 minutes for each one and the keepers were happy to answer lots of questions. I was very impressed that they gave information about how the public can help endangered animals by choosing certain products such as Rainforest Alliance tea. All the animals looked very healthy and well looked after.
The highlight for my daughter was seeing Tyler from One Zoo Three, he really was the nicest guy, happy to chat and have a photo taken with her 😊
We hired a stroller for the day as my daughter is autistic. This worked really well and enabled her to enjoy the day much more, well worth the £14 for a double one which was big enough for her.
Although it was the summer holidays and the car park looked pretty full, nothing seemed ridiculously crowded, we didn't have to queue long for anything and there was plenty of seating in shady spots.
We went for lunch in the air conditioned Pangaea cafe a bit later, 2pm, and by then the salads had sold out and the sandwich choice was limited so recommend getting lunch earlier. The food was reasonably good. Could do with some more non-fizzy soft drinks choices, they only had little cartons or water. There were lots of water refill points around the zoo which was good.
I have a feeling the Sunbear Bakery (which we only discovered later in the day) might have been a nicer place to eat with views of the abimals but there isn't much information on the website about what food is available where so we'd just headed to the main "food court" area.
All on all it was an excellent day out, there was easily enough to do for a whole day. Next time I will make sure to go to the paddling pool, we missed it this time as I'd forgotten it closes 30 mins before the zoo shuts and I'd been planning on going just before we left. So we will definitely back and would highly recommend a visit!
