Greene King Pubs brand director Natalia Perez said: "Brits from the West Midlands love travelling the world and trying new things, yet also value the friendliness and familiarity a British pub can always provide.

"At Seared Pubs we take that classic pub vibe at your local and add in global dishes like Lamb Koftas, Jerk Chicken, and Korean Fried Chicken."

The research also brought to light the West Midlander's favourite holiday treats: Lamb Koftas topped the chart with 34 per cent of votes, followed by Halloumi Fries, Jerk Chicken and Korean Fried Chicken.
