| Unfortunately, I have to vote this down compared to my review a couple of years ago. I really want to like this pub, and the recent extension was much-needed, but it's fell down on beer quality too many times lately. While its efforts to sell a wider range are laudable, if it's not able to keep that many beers well, a slight reduction may be in order... daveinbrum - 22 May 2012 21:52 |
| All the right elements for a good pub appear to be in place: a traditional feel, a wide range of interesting and well kept beers and an obviously popular haunt with a solid consistent reputation. Where it stumbles for me however, is that I never find it especially friendly. The welcome from the bar staff is lukewarm and reserved at best, or accompanied with a particularly stinging line of banter which even some of the regulars don't seem to appreciate. I'm not a regular and often made to feel it, an impression shared by several others in our group. Granted mine is a minority view when compared to previous comments but I have to conclude by saying I'll only be here for the beer. ILooklikeme - 15 Nov 2011 20:52 |

| much, much, much improved. Great selection of ales with a "wellington" style digital display board. Friendly bar staff, well kept beer, even a pub cat. By far the most enjoyable pub to have a few pints in around Harborne. mattyboy - 27 Apr 2010 10:32 |
