| Has a Spring Ale festival at the moment until 5 May. Otherwise for those going in during the morning, coffee and a bacon butty for £1.79. Formerly the Old Varsity Tavern, tiling outside says Holt's Bournbrook. rainlight - 26 Apr 2012 11:05 |
| One of 2 pubs in Selly Oak on the Bristol Road that has real ale on tap, the Goose is also one of the cheapest. Why? Because the ale is mostly pretty bad. I've heard they don't clean the pipes out properly, which would explain it. However, it is VERY cheap. The music's never too loud and the food isn't bad. The toilets are horrendous though. Avoid the beer on tap (or just hold your nose when you drink it) and it's a good, cheap pub. Otherwise, you're better off going elsewhere. mango1902 - 8 Jun 2011 18:43 |
| superb value once again from the goose brand,i never associate this chain with decent ale but my perceptions are beginning to change especially now they have gained cask marque status,five ales when visited feat marstons pedigree,marstons epa(£1.59),wells bombardier,t Taylor landlord,and skinners "paddy's pride"(£2.10) which i opted for ,the three barmaids were very pleasing to the exe like the prices,cannot fault 8/10 fat_beer_badger - 20 Mar 2011 16:04 |
| Typical Goose pub. Cheap ale, well kept and slightly grubby interior. Cheapest pub in Selly Oak though, as other contibutors have said. Very busy on Saturday nights. wbafc_beer - 28 Nov 2009 09:03 |
