I had some great nights in here. When there is nowhere else to go when one is bored of the so-called "delights" that Broad St has to offer, then this is the place to go after hours. You meet a diverse range of people from many different countries, all having their own story. Whether or not they are fabricated, that's another matter. The beer is nothing particularly special. However, by the time I normally come in here, I'm really rather plastered, and this place offers me a haven in which to drink myself further into oblivion.

The Tap and Spile ought to be one of the best pubs in Birmingham but is let down by the run-down condition of the pub and variable service. Although the pub has a lovely setting by the canal side and a sociable atmosphere very different from the drinking circuit pubs of Broad Street nearby, and a good range of (generally) well kept ales; the place is spoiled by the utterly filthy and worn out decor, broken furniture, and disgusting toilets.

Nice traditional little pub, addlestones on draught (very nice), The TV was extremely loud for an empty pub (he turned it down 3 times while we were there)

I really wanted to like this place as it's a nice location and well layed out pub. Sadly the ale was poor when i went and it took for ages to get served, even though there was hardly anyone in.

Handy location but they dont like people having a laugh or a few drinks.Prefer to serve under-age kids than raucous over-age ones. Cant anyone speak either English or in a polite manner ? Beer decent enough.
