Winner of the "best view 2005" pub. Pretty decent views to be fair. Very good pint of Malvern Black Pear. Interesting place, will be back.

This pub is a rare treat. Not large inside but a good sized outdoor area.

Great range of real ales; real chips with lunch as well!

Highly recommended for a lengthy rest after walking in the Hills

Stopped by on Jubilee weekend, the Wood's Shropshire Lass and the Malvern Hills Black Pear were both in perfect nick, and tasted even better in the landscape sloping beer garden at the rear. 8/10

A gem of a pub! Great beer and good value for money meals. An ideal spot for lunch or an evening meal after walking the nearby Malvern hills.

This is not just a pub but a very important part of the West Malvern community. Really nice rural feel to it just off West Malvern Road! It sells papers as there are no shops for miles and the views are awesome. I was there when the sun was setting so I saw a very spectacular sunset from here. It is out of the way but that adds to its charm. Lovely country pub!

Good little unspoilt pub in a great location. Friendly staff, decent range of pints including Malvern Hills Brewery's ales. Food exceptionally good value and decent quaity (cheapest ever on srendall's 'ham-egg-and-chips-ometer').
Only criticism is the over-stated claim to have the best view from a pub garden - its good, but not that good!

Without a doubt, this is one of the two best pubs in Malvern. Tucked away on the lower slopes of West malvern's Horseshoe Bend, it has been providing good beer and hospitality for over 200 years, dating back to the days when in the 18th Century the local farmworkers, blacksmiths and quarry engineers would meet there for a pint and a gossip after a hard day at the rock face or in the fields.
Landlord Trevor Marston and his wife Sue are friendliness and welcome itself. It is a small pub, but offers more than many hostelries twice it's size; there is always a superb range of draught ales on tap (including at least three local brews), and food is served nightly with more than one vegetarian option and a wide selection of accompanying veg. The place is spotlessly clean and well-maintained; stained glass dividers and hanging copper vessels glint at you when you enter, with Edwardian crockery nestling on the beams above the bar.
In the Winter months, a roaring log fire is blazing in the hearth to warm the bones from the chill winds blasting in from the North. In the Summer, there is nothing nicer than to sit out on the terrace watching the sun set over the Welsh mountains and hearing soft music wafting over from neighbouring gardens, as the pub cats laze on the lawn and late paragliders swoop over North Hill.
Don't expect a jukebox, or rude postcards on the walls, or karaoke on Saturday nights- this isn't that kind of inn, the atmosphere is altogether more civilised and relaxed. Instead, savour the warmth and pride of a terrific little haven that has provided kindness and refreshment to the community for many decades, as well as extending a warm welcome to newcomers and visitors.
LONG LIVE THE BREWERS ARMS!!

Had a trip to find this Good Beer Guide pub, and it was certainly worth it. We enjoyed the food in the company of the pub cat, and had no problem with the quality of the beer. Enjoyed the hospitality and the views.

Great little pub with stunning views (the best in England apparently!) and home-cooked food
