Beautiful Victorian pub with a large selection of real ales across two bars , and an outdoors terrace on the 1st floor. The first port of call for thirsty Southerners stepping out of Birmingham New St!

Gareth Hardy

Lovely real ales , order from the screen above the bar . They are happy if you bring your own food - or the occasional communal cheese night! Avoid the "posh" crisps - nasty

Proper pub ! Good ales and ciders - try this Perry if you get a chance, it's extremely drinkable ????

Antonio

Lovely selection of ales , which you can check on the screens or on the website--in realtime. Get a pint and head out on the terrace , when weather permits.

I spend more time here than I do at home. If you come here without trying Oakham Citra you are missing out on one of mankind's greatest creation.
