Really nice place for lunch, service was excellent, good coffee, my son and I had the daily roast for £12.50 each which was a bit small considering the price, there was only 2 mouthfuls of lamb 3 tiny roast potatoes a spoonful of mash and a spoo6of carrot and turnip also the obligatory piece of broccoli and cauliflower, what we got was nice but I wasn't impressed, definitely wouldn't go there again

Stayed here for a wedding recently....standard rooms ok but the decor is looking tired. Bar area has a good buzz though and a good choice of drinks on offer. Function room through the back was ideal, and the team at Briars Hall did a fantastic job with the room decorations. If you're looking for a wedding venue then definitely one to consider. I have to say that from the cooked breakfast to the shin of beef lunch, the food was delicious! Would recommend...

We had our wedding here in October 2021; family and friends travelled from all over the UK and Italy. We booked out the hotel on the wedding night itself but also had 40+ staying the night before and 10+ the night after.
The staff are fantastic, from arrival to departure nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are lovely.. beautiful decor and spacious. There are 2 family rooms however the hotel put additional temporary beds in several more rooms to accommodate our guests who were travelling with children. We had the choice of 2 bridal suites, both beautifully done, one more traditional the other

Where to start... I wish I could give this place 10 stars.
Me and my wife got married here recently and I can't recommend Briars Hall enough. The whole day went like clockwork. Food was amazing, the staff are very friendly (special mention to Steve, our MC for the day) and the rooms are spacious, clean and well equipped.
Nothing was too much trouble for the guys at Briars Hall and we'll definitely be returning soon.
Thank you so much for everything..
