The Brown Lion, Birmingham

Went in sat aft as it advertised food and ale. Waited 20 minutes for the beer to be pulled as two (of four) ales needed barrels changing, only to be told food was only for those on brewery tour, despite us saying we would like to eat when we ordered the pints. Abysmal service, will not return. Food looked pretty average; and a pub that can't serve beer?!

Bacchus, Birmingham

Dreadful place with shocking management. Shame really as its location and interior could make it quite special. Poorly kept ale, from my taste of the ubu. Popped in for half and no seats, to be told by 12 year old manager that the empty dining room was fully booked. At six in the evening. The kind of place that never fails to disappoint. Go to the Wellington for ale, or sounds like pizza hut is a better food option.
