The Raven

Head out towards Claines and you'll find yourself in proper Worcester suburbia—the kind of place where locals actually know the barkeep's name. The Raven fits right in: it's the gastropub that takes its job seriously without getting precious about it. You're looking at real ales, a kitchen that knows its way around a proper burger or fish and chips, and enough regulars nursing their pints to make you feel like you've stumbled onto something genuine. It's not trying to be cool; it just is what a neighbourhood pub should be.
