| Social centre and real ale pub as well as meeting point for young and old this pub is as others have said one of the best if not the best in Moseley. rainlight - 10 Sep 2011 00:56 |
| Head and shoulders the best pub in Moseley. The management here have made sure there is something for everyone. The public bar with 10 hand pulls retains much of its Victorian charm and the celler is well kept. The selection of beer is good but lacks the stronger brews or a regular dark beer, I do love my milds, stouts and porters. However, their fine selection of Belgian bottled beers makes up for this, mmmm yummy! They have weekly folk music sessions here wich always produce a great crowd with musicians traveling from far and wide to join in. The beer garden is massive and well covered & heated (British summers). The recent introduction of the Motikki cocktail bar and extension of seating down the previously unused alley area has brought a much youger, livelier crowd in at the weekends - great fun! Moseley has always had a large student population and it appears that those with any sense are now drinking in here. Table service at weekends has done away with the queuing problem at the bar. There is now a wine cellar open at weekends with a fair selection of good quality wines and champagne. You can also have a hearty cheese plate for just £2 when you buy a bottle. When not drinking beer I am a bit of a rum lover and can assure any reader that the selection of rums here is second to none. And they have at least a dozen malts on show, so good news for the lovers of good scotch. The landlord likes a cigar and has introduced a humidor so his customers can partake in some fine tobacco as they sip their rum. Jart - 20 Aug 2011 17:13 |
| On one of the few good summer days in 2011, the large outside area behind was absolutely crammed. Building is a traditional pub, with good original internal fittings such as ceramic tiles in corridor leading to garden. Lots of real ales, well-kept (one that we ordered turned out to be 'off', but when we tasted the part-pint that had been poured before the message had reached the barman, it was much better than some of the beers that we'd paid good money for earlier in the afternoon at the 'Elzabeth of York'!). A landlord that seems to pride himself in looking after his ales well. I believe he also specialises in having a good selection of rum as well - these contributing to the 'south seas' themed cocktail bar open in the garden in the summer. FotWBF - 24 Jul 2011 23:40 |
| Popped in here a couple of weeks ago. Really good selection of ales, very pleasant & knowledgeable bar staff and a menu of about 26 rums to complement a marvellous selection of single malts. Well worth a visit. MrsManson - 15 Apr 2011 10:41 |
| Think Stein`s just about summed it up. Has lost the spit and sawdust touch though which made this place strangely appealing and it`s just a bit too bright - sunglasses optional. Gets the thumbs up! Blastbeat - 17 Sep 2010 12:51 |
