| Large pub set back from a busy roadside. But unfortunately its now closed. Try the Swan (not listed on here) instead. That was the best pub I tried in Brownhills. blue_scrumpy - 13 Jul 2016 21:47 |
| I'm not generally too hard to please, but didnt like this place on a midweek evening, and as an Irishman who will drink anywhere thats saying something. I can imagine it was great in its heyday, but that has sadly passed. The_mystery_drinker - 14 Feb 2012 11:52 |
| Popped in for a pint at around 6pm on a weekday about a week ago. As mentioned by others., there's a strong 1930s/Art Deco theme, using what appear to be original features as the basis (though the overall decor is well-worn). Barman seemed a bit glum, though did offer my wife a taster of one of the ales when she asked what it was like (perhaps it was easier than describing it). Can't recall exactly what we drank (that said, I 'm pretty sure I had Purity's Mad Goose), but they were very well kept and enjoyable. Friendly bunch of locals at the bar, but very few in apart from that. Mick_P - 13 Sep 2011 09:44 |
| This is fairly local for me, so I sometimes pop in for Sunday lunch, which is always good, and the fine selection of ale, which always seems well kept. stymaster - 19 Jul 2009 19:04 |
| Its sad that Jimbo Smith doesnt still review - as he has it spot on with the 1930s exterior, the panelling, gramaphone and display case inside, but the walls are now a peppermint and mustard two tone look. Service was very friendly, clientel mixed, though a little quiet when i visited. Beers: usual, no MILD, with 5 handpulls; Abbots, Tetley, Titanic Iceberg, Deuchars and TTL - which was very nice. I liked this place, now looking just a tad tired. Will visit again. Archivist - 8 Jul 2009 22:28 |
