Bar10 - Walsall

Went to bar 10 after a stressful time at A&E. on arrival I was meet with a very informative staff member after being there 20 mins they had made me feel like a regular. Even tho they had a bit of abuse from another person they handled it very professionally and quickly dealt with it so the others costumers could settle back and enjoy there drinks etc and the villa match 10/10 from me

Came for lunch with my husband and 2 children. Food was excellent . Our waitress (emma) was a perfect host ,made us feel very special through out our visit. Thankyou for a luvlie afternoon . Cant wait to return

It has been more than ten years since we 're been to what was previously The Wharf. I was apprehensive about eating there! We entered though trudging through sodden astro turf (I know the weather doesn 't help, but seriously fake plastic grass? Which was not encouraging my expectations. The bar has been beautifully decorated and feels clean. The dining area is a free standing inbuilt area with a false ceiling this makes it feel cosy, and as claustrophobic as I initially anticipated. We arrived at 6.30pm with a confirmed groupon booked voucher, but was not in the book This, however, did not deter our host Codie. He immediately said he could fit us in, before I showed him the evidence. His positive reaction put any annoyances straight into the canal! We sat down in a very comfortable booth. All diners are in these spacious booths and it feels very private. Codie, our host was wonderfully attentive. He explain the voucher details and offered to take our drinks order. He was busy and always explained to us who he was serving before he came to us. This made us feel reassured and created a positive atmosphere. We ordered the succulent pork belly bites to start. As you can see from the images it is not what was described. Tasty as it was, the pork was chewy. The sauce was butternut squash, sweet potato and red onion. It had an unusual bitter taste, which unfortunately was exemplified by my merlot. The grilled meat was also bitter. But despite that, well seasoned and tasty. We ordered the rib eye medium rare which was cooked nicely. It was a good quality steak and was very enjoyable. Again, my husband complained about a bitter taste from the grill. I myself could not taste it as much as from the pork. The home triple cooked chips were amazing! I honestly thought they had been cooked in animal fat, instead actually only oil! Beautiful! I orded the beef dripping sauce they had run out of bernaise and hubby had peppercorn sauce. Both were disappointingly bland. However, with the chips was fine! Seriously good chips! Home cooked onion rings? Beautiful! I regret not having an extra side of those! I finished with a chocca mocha cocktail which was delicious. Creamy and chocolatey. What more do you want? Overall, extremely impressive with the venue and customer service.

We've been for someone to take over what was The Wharf Bar for years now and the current owners have done a great job of the renovations and bringing the place back to life. They host live music nights regularly which brings people in for a really good night, which is great as that's how it used to be, great place. However we have been mostly in the day and it may just be our preference but they've recently installed sky sports which is great for any sports fans like us but they dont have the sound on particularly on a Saturday when any football fans want to watch the scores. We just don't understand this because it costs a fortune to have and they're not maximising on it, instead the music that's on like today is very very low beat and quite depressing to be honest, again it might just be us but listening to Whitney Houston I will always love you and that kind of thing just makes you want to drink up and leave. Walsall is greatly lacking like most towns a great bar and restaurant culture, it's very drab and the others bars that show sports are not the best at all. Bar 10 is the nicest, friendliest place in Walsall town centre but really are missing a trick with certain things. Very unfortunately it puts off the customers like us that want a good place in Walsall to go, totally off, we just moan about it after.

Had a few drinks and a dance to the band/dj. Drinks were a bit on the expensive side, but not too bad.
