| been here a few saturdays. overzealous bouncers are the order of things here...due to it being a regular spot for punch-ups between coked-up Kings Heath and Acocks Green cliques. Not rough at all now, in fact it has a nice vibe. Has a DJ but he places the same songs every week. He seems to have 'Valerie' on permanent loop. Very clean. Nice smoking part. Toilets well looked after. Less Cokeheads these days too. Service is quick and efficient and friendly...some other pubs in Moseley should take lessons in customer service. Choice of beers/spirits is low - needs improving. What beers they do have are good. Only eaten here once, food is mundane, nothing spectacular. Not a place to watch sport as TVs are way too small. Very much a place for the older adult out on the pull. Not a bad night, all told. sharpey2009 - 2 Jan 2009 13:41 |
| No longer a Hogshead, Drift or the Salisbury, now called The Junction. Its a functional pub in the style of a Weatherspoons, or Lloyds bar. Its has little or no character, not a very good selection of beers. Last time I was in there, despite billing themselves as having "real ale" there was only one electric pump creamflow on offer. Half the food on the menu was not available and again, despite advertising themselves as a cricket and rugby pub they had only one screen showing the test match with no sound and were playing late 90's dance music. It was 2.30pm on a Sunday. Avoid at all costs unless you are after a fair few drinks and getting off with a like minded soul of a Friday evening. bitemeimchocolate - 25 Jul 2008 17:54 |
| Your right, Mr TOMRIGHT, I apologise for my previous rant. Though how come any one with anything good to say about this place registers for one day to comment on this one pub? Including tomright, night and bebeT...friends of the pub indeed? My review earlier on this pub was not harsh, just pointed out lack of individuality at a high price.. I will pay the price when its worth my time and taste seaman_max - 27 May 2008 10:01 |
| Shame we have people arguing over the price of drink. i went to this bar with my wife where i was able to watch the football, relax, eat and have a nice beer. Indeed the beers are normal but the wine selection is very good. The place is clean and well furnished. i agree with comments about other establsihments in the area being more heavy drinker places(although i wouldnt phrase in the same way. I am pleased there is now a place i can relax and doesnt smell like a brewery. But i agree not a youth place. TomRight - 30 Apr 2008 15:10 |
| Message to bebeT Rant begins Re your comments below "And in regard to the comments below stick to if your worried about prices you obviously don't earn enough thats the reason places like Metro bar, Shimla pinks, Tu Chai, New Bond Street and now the Junction do this to keep you out and away from people like me." "single beautiful girls like me and my friends" Get the hell out your own arse Earn enough to drink here? Its just about value for money especially when your a lager/guiness drinker like myself. I dont mind paying top prices when the selection and quality is there, but what you have at the Juction is nothing unusual, standard booze at high prices and if your the kind of prententious person who is happy with this then I think many ppl will agree this is not the kind of bar worth visiting Rant over seaman_max - 23 Apr 2008 10:01 |
