| The music is always too loud (although commandeering the juke box is good fun) and the beer on tap is sometimes bad but it's better than most other pubs in Selly Oak. No ale on tap, the usual selection of lagers but plenty of cocktails and good prices. The food's good too. The upstairs bar hosts band nights and such. Probably the second-best pub in Selly Oak (after the Country Girl). mango1902 - 8 Jun 2011 18:50 |
| This pub is quite nice. Friendly, attentive staff and the food is good too. One major negative though. In winter it is absolutely freezing and a few times I've chosen not to go purely for this reason. Also, it does seem to cater for mostly students. Would be nice if they could entice an older crowd but all in all a nice little drinking place. djfunnyboi79 - 30 May 2011 18:45 |
| part of the "scream" chain of student type pubs,no handpumps at all so opted for pint of Guinness(£2.85)* the service was quick though and the barmaid friendly.busy for a Sunday afternoon mind football was on the big screen,ok but would divert to goose if you want good beer!6/10 *the chain offers a "yellow card" that only costs a quid and you get discounted drinks by showing it fat_beer_badger - 20 Mar 2011 16:46 |
| Refurbished Pub near the station. Decent beer from memory (was here in October), but I have to say the decor has a 'rustic' feel. They seem to be refitting many of the student pubs up like this these days.......wooden floors etc . Are they trying too much to be 'authentic'? Other than that it was busy on a saturday, wih students, as you would imagine, and the atmosphere was quite friendly. Bottled beer was a bit poncy and overpriced. Didn't try the cask Guiness , but was told it tasted ok. wbafc_beer - 28 Nov 2009 08:54 |
| This pub usually is quite welcoming and a lot less crowded than the barrels, was in her last on sunday, the lager is flat like the barrels so some consistency. Smallest pool cue in the world(not a certified fact)...pub ruined for me by the fact I watched England lose to Portugual her last summer. seaman_max - 13 Jul 2007 11:00 |
