Bull Ring Tavern, Digbethback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
It`s been through a turbulent period where it was shut for a while. It`s open again but is exactly the same as before except a few regulars are now at Her Majesties special hotel. It`s standard fare pub wise, if you want a quick lager after a wander round the markets it`ll do.

Full of character, they look a bit scary in there but they are friendly enough. Nice little boozer.

Went in here a couple of months ago. I didn't realise it was still open, and it's hard to see how it still is.
Friendly enough place (and it gets rammed on a Saturday when people are fed up trapsing round the market), but on my visit the only aletype thing on offer was Boddingtons, and it was very badly kept.
Worth a visit just to step back in time to 1970.

when we got to birmingham for d 1st time & left our hotel we were gasping for a pint,we spotted the BRT from near the markets,bit apprehensive when we got closer and opened the door,we said we were definately havin d 1pint&getting out of there, that was at 4pm. we fell out the door at around 12 that nite,wat a laugh, brilliant landlady and her husband,forget their names,we even gave them a hand collecting glasses,nice ploughman sandwich aswell,if job was done on d toilets then it'd be super place, butt i guess that's what makes real english pubs like this,headin bk over again from ireland can't wait to go bk in there

I have to echo the previous two posters - I have never been anywhere like it, at least not in the past twenty years. The chestnut mild was good, but the boddingtons was very bad. If they could do something about the overwhelming stench of wee, then I think I would practically live in the bull ring tavern.

I visit this pub a lot. As Staaly says, it is very 70's and full of real Brummies - and thank God for that! It serves two Milds, Chestnut and Banks's and the Juke Box is unlike any other - one of the few i would invest a coin of the realm in. Everyone is friendly. As its handt for the train, its often the first and last pub of the night for us.

Popped in for one (or two) at the end of May. It was like stepping into the 1970s. Full of 'proper' Brummies and a mean pint of Chestnut Mild. I liked it!

Shocking little boozer opposite bull ring market, small and dingy...and poor service. Many better pubs not far away as you can see so avoid.
