user reviews of the Gatehouse, Lichfield

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Ship-issue 'Spoons/Lloyds just on the edge of town. As always with 95% of them, worth having a look to check the ales on (good prices of course), but doesn't make much of an effort to not appear 'run-down'. Unlike most 'Spoons though, it's BBC News rather than SKY for them. Happy birthday Rupert....

Strange old place; on the plus side very cheap drinks and quick service. We ate there once and it was standard fayre but okay.
The negatives are tatty decor and a bit mucky last time we were in, not sure if that was pre or post decoration mentioned above.
It seems such a waste of potential given it's central location.

A recent visit to The Gate House has proved change does seem to be in the air. Still not as great as it could be but getting there. The horrible chav/looser atmosphere the place once had does seem to have gone or at least going. Its a shame that the place is so dark why they re-painted that lovely cream colour to a really dark red I don't know. The bar has a very unfortunate shape I won't go into details but who ever designed it was an idiot. Ok so positives, its one of the few lloyds that actully looks like a lloyds should look. Its not full of middle aged people trying to be 20 again (well not when I visisted anyway), the beer was beautifully chilled and tasty and the prices where some of the lowest I've seen in a lloyds. Keep it up.

Premises is an old bank. Had local Blythe Brewery beer available. In at lunchtime so quiet with local shoppers.
