Decent-sized pub with good, though not outstanding, range of beers. Not bad at all, but several other good places nearby.

I'm not a regular here, but when I have been in there has been a good atmosphere and the beer is usually well kept. The interior is also impressive. A decent city centre boozer.

Lets be honest, the wellington and the briar rose are sh*tty for a pint. the beers never any good.
at least in this bar you can on occasion lay hold of a decent pint of ale which is served with a sensible head. they seem to be rotating jennings (various) and marstons (various). they obviously dont know what they're doing because sometimes you have two 'super pints' like Snecky and Old Empire, and at other times fanny pints like Marstons Bitter and Cumberland Ale. If they ever get it right and I can be guaranteed a pint that'll get me p*ssed when I come in, every time I come in, then I'll come in a whole lot more.
And I hope to run into you beer pig baiter, cause you sound like the kind of drunk who appreciates a strong'er' real ale. Cheers!

Went here on sunday, had old empire, sneck lifter and Staropramen. All very well kept. One of the best bars in the area. Worst thing about this place is that the people below have been in there. God help us.

Nice bar but a bit dull. Not really any atmosphere to speak of. Large place with ok beer selection though quite pricey.

I enjoyed this pub when i went for the first time on Sat. Only had 1 beer, a nice affordable pint of Staropramen. I have almost been in here on several occasions but i seem to prefer the wellington or the Briar Rose. Though i will be returning im sure. Me and my mate sat in the board room with creaky chairs and a coat hook which was cool and out the way of a crowded bar area. Mrbeerbelly is right about the toilets which seemed like a labrinth. good pub 6/10

I like it!
Beer's not always brilliant but there's usually something different.
Don't forget to leave a trail of bread crumbs when you go to the toilet though.

This pub us one of Birminghams better looking pubs, not saying much there.Its interior has been tastefully decorated with murals and comfy furnishings but the beer is not it's strong point. For a decent brew. my advice is nip over the road to the Briar Rose and quaff their many ales instead

Interior is superb and is stylish and comfy. Bar staff tend to be superb or surly. Have encountered some slightly mental punters in here. The tendency to play loud crap music can ruin the atmosphere.
