lovely building, bar staff uninformed about the ales they stock and seem like they would rather have a chat than serve the public. That said its a Wetherspoons and as a result its a cheap pint, though not the seletion avaliable at other wetherspoons. You must visit the unpstairs just to see the building. Overall a nice boozer, shame its in northfield.

prob the most impressive exterior compared to all the other west midlands spoons,the front long bar was busy but service quick and the ale cheap,sad round the corner in the quieter "garden room" would definately recommend 8/10

First visit since the revamp and on first impressions an improvement on the old place. Fair range of real ales although not as good as the best 'Spoons'. Had breakfast which as usual was very good value. Service incredibly slow, not enough bar staff on and those that were on were spending too much time making hot drinks. Please employ someone to cater for the grannies and someone else to cater for beer drinkers!!! Car park is now patrolled which is a change for the worse. Appears to have got rid of the scum of old due to no tv's / sport however as with all spoons the low prices do attract a certain element. Will visit again if the ale range improves and the staff are reminded that they don't work for Starbucks!!

Tried it just after it opened.

An ignorant barmaid nearly ruined the session as she knew nothing about CAMRA vouchers, how to pour a pint and threw a moody when I told her the beer was off but the manager sorted me out, agreed the beer was off, gave me a CAMRA discount and a fresh pint of something else whilst closing down the other pump - while she just scowled at me in the background.

Common as muck and someone who should just be sacked.

It is a good refurb but its Northfield - and an air of menace and drunken wino's already prevail. Despite only being open for about 2 weeks the place had already begun to look tatty.

The Golden Cross in Bromsgrove seems posh by contrast !

If your a member of C.A.M.A.R.A show the gaffer your card, he will knock 40 -50p a pint of the real ale selection - Cheers.
