I like this pub just not as much as I used to. Not such a wide choice of ales and there were. Staff not as.. um.. visible, shall we say. It's a lot quieter than it used to be. I tend to go in on Saturday afternoons and sometimes we've been the only 2 in there. It's a shame. Not sure what's happened.

Traditional suburban local, with low ceilings and a central bar serving distinct areas that create a pleasant, cosy feel, with bar rooms at the front and a more comfy lounge at the rear. The beer choice is the real draw, with all the beers socurced from local microbreweries. Tried the ginger ale which was very pleasant, along with the bar staff. Good smell of food but I didn't try any. The 558 Dudley-Wolverhampton bus passes here and many other good pubs and this is defintely worth a visit on any visit to the Black Country.

Lots of beers available, bit of a beer tickers dream, not too many locally produced beers so worthwhile if you want so you something a bit different.

Returned to The Jolly Crispin for the third time on Easter Sunday evening and left disappointed. The beer selection is still good - Dark Star Hophead, Tom Wood Harvest Bitter, Nethergate Green Pike & Umbel Ale, Cathedral Magna Carta and Fullers ESB and London Pride. There are no real ciders any more. However what really let this pub down was the service. Whilst the one barman was pouring through a new beer, the solitary barmaid chose to ignore us in favour of one of the locals who had strolled up to the bar and got served straight away despite us having waited 3-4 minutes. I shouted across 'It looks like we're being ignored' in a sarcastic tone and received no response. Eventually the barman served us whilst the barmaid kept giving us 'dirty looks'. I've worked for several years in pubs over the years and it's not too difficult to clock the order in which people come to the bar. As a customer I also find it common courtesy to point out anybody who has been waiting longer than I have. Despite the good choice of real ales and nice enough interior, I will be giving this pub a wide berth in future. The ignorant bar staff and customers let it down badly.
