Shire Oak Inn, Walsall Woodback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Update: new landlord is doing well. Always at least a couple of well-kept ales, plus all the usual.

Another new landlord: seems to be finding his feet now. Food OK, beer pretty good.
|
I've now tried the food: It's very good and reasonably priced.
The beer is *excellent*- Speckled Hen is a regular and is well kept. The pub is a nice quiet place for a few drinks and the current landlord looks after his beer and customers.
|
Not tried the food but the new landlord is friendly, as are the other staff, and the beer was good too: 3 real ales and Banks mild on handpull, a choice of the ordinary stuff too. I'll be visiting more often.

An icon of a detached corner pub. It looks quite tidy from the outside, the inside, has a couple of areas - a dining one, which i didnt go in and a bar area at the back, which i did - being a miserable person, who likes to avoid others. It was quiet, with wallpaper look rather than plain wall - but the seats and decor did look a bit worn, especially in the dart area. The service was very friendly - i didnt see any other clientele.
Beer wise; it had usual stuff, with 4 handpulls; Banks's MILD, bitter, Titanic Lifeboat and Rev James, which was good.
A place i would quite happily stop at again, especially with the Royal Oak around the corner
