Serves an excellent pint of Guinness - at £2.90 a pint during the ''happy hour'' that runs through the day until 4pm. No real ale and not much else to be said. 5/10.

This is a great pub in the Irish quarter of Birmingham. You'll not find top quality real ales or the like but you will get a decent pint of lager or an excellent Guinness.
On entry the bar is to the right and runs a decent lenght. Its been modernised and is the sort of bar you can expect to see in a stylish night club.
there is a small drinking area near to the bar usually inhabited by the regular Irishmen who spend their days staggering around the Digbeth boozers.
The pub then opens out into a reasonable size dance area to the rear of which are located the toilets.
During the day there are usually a handful of staunch irishmen who can regail you with amusing anecdotes or with whom you can set the world to rights. In the evening the pub becomes a lively post work bar. At weekends during the day it is busy especially on match days then of an evening it moves into a nightclub type of venue. It also provides a convenient place to meet for pre gig drinks for the HMV academy next door.

The bouncers wear gloves, presumably so the punches don't leave any fingerprints.

Not a beer tickers pub, more of a Broad Strret establishment transported to Digbeth. Expect it could be quite lively in the early hours and if you wanted a barney it`d be available......from the wenches who frequent the place! If you`ve got a bit about yourself then you`d probably like this venue.

My friend and i spent 5 nights at the kerryman in march and had a great time. We sang in the bar and drank some of the finest guiness outside ireland. Angelina, the landlady, was very hospitable and the staff were friendly, chatty and efficient. We enjoyed our stay, in a very comfortable room and a very reasonable price and we shall be going back. Thanks to all and see you soon. Nick and martin. :)

I would like to take back my previous review, This pub has gone completely down hill. Lost a lot of business to the dubliner and hennesseys. Music is shite with some regae depending on how many chavs are asking for it. Was ten peeps in ere at half 10 at nite on Fri 2nd May. Joke. Go elsewhere for better booze and atmosphere.

Just about escaped with my life a year or so ago. Moody, rough and ready. Bit of a tinderbox, beware.

Saw a kid get boomed by a gang outside this dive while an army of bouncers stood and watched. Don't think I'll be dropping by anytime soon.

This bar is prety cool on a Friday and Saturday night. Good music, free entry and 3am finish. Try the vodka slush :-) can be good drink when already very drunk. This was the final stop on our last pub crawl and we left around 3ish after enjoying the music and the beer..
I have been here on quieter nights and still friendly atmosphere... if your up town or in digbeth try for yourself.
