Good local near the NIA. lots of hand pumps and good company.
Even got talking to me, a stranger in their midst. If the locals read this i had the Uni scarf on, from debenhams.The wing commander asked which Uni i was from.

Fine traditional pub situated in what is known as The Convention Quarter of Birmingham.Despite being close to the National Indoor Arena and the Repertory Theatre, it occupies a slightly isolated position behind these buildings and away from the main hustle and bustle and "yoof" bars of Broad Street.

It's a Festival Ale House and, on my recent early evening visit, was offering a variety of mainstream real ales - Deuchars IPA, London Pride, Bombardier, Landlord etc, plus Brains and Ansells Mild. The Deuchars IPA - £ 2.7Op - was in good nick. The pub is listed in the 2010 GBG.

The pub is traditionally furnished and decorated - wood panelling, frosted glass etc - and seemingly well run. On my recent Thursday evening visit, the pub was quite busy, mainly with locals and regulars, and there was a lively and welcoming atmosphere. It is therefore disappointing - and perhaps surprising - to report that there are still Estate Agents boards outside offering a "Leasehold Business for Sale".

It's not a must visit pub, but I quite liked this one and you could do much worse than seek it out.

Looked a bit blokey and rough in there last Friday so walked on by. Maybe it was something to do with The Arctic Monkeys being on at the NIA.

The last time I was in here until yesterday was 2 years ago and I’m pretty sure the same beers were on then as they were yesterday. It’s got a good looking exterior and inside it’s full of decent wood panelling, wood partitions and glass. There are loads of interesting things hanging on the walls and sat on the numerous ledges. The barmaid was very efficient despite having to deal with a load of girlies calling in for Blue WKDs whilst queuing for a concert at the ICC nearby. They have live bands on a Sunday usually jazz and swing. There are eight handpumps Ansell’s Mild, Deuchars, Pride, TT Landlord, Brains SA, St Austell Tribute, Adnam’s Regatta and Bombardier. I had a pint of the mild which was excellent as usual. It’s a good pub which sadly appears to be up for sale.
