Watering Trough, Walsallback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
The Watering Trough seems to be going from strength to strength at the moment... new Open Mic Night, Karaoke, extra Band Nights as well as the usual Rock nights. ALSO returning to being an excellent Real Ale pub, only the 4th in Walsall town centre to be awarded the Cask Marque for the consistent quality of beer. Beer garden currently being developed too, new BBQ and talk of a new colour scheme!! Come and see us, say hello, and enjoy a quality pint!!

The pub has now gone back to being the Watering Trough again (I am sure in my youth there was an actual trough outside). This pub will not be to everyones taste but if you like your rock music then pop in. The beers not the greatest but the Abbot Ale was passable. Staff and clientele friendly enough

I've drunk in here for 20 years.....
It's not plush, but friendly enough. Beer choice limited, but my Guiness was good.

I had to write a second review of this pub. I make a point of visiting this pub whenever I drink in Walsall. The Mild is consistently excellent. And I love the quirky feel of the place. I can understand that, maybe, this pub might not be to everyone's taste. However, the Rising Sun is fast becoming one of my favourite stopping off places in Walsall. And I have increased my rating!

Another great pub to visit in Walsall, if you actually go for beer that is! The Highgate Mild is always consistent. The barmaid changes everytime i go in, but are always pleasant - only downside i find is that the seats in the lounge are a bit painful - like sitting on a bicycle saddle - and whilst that may appeal to many of you, not I

Visited this pub as part of a most excellent night out with my good friend, the Archivist, on Friday 4 July. Very good Highgate Dark Mild. A relaxed, friendly atmosphere and a very nice barmaid. Recommended!

Went in here Friday evening 1st Feb. Beer was in good nick, and it seemed a lively crowd in there. Mainly a rock crowd, but it was a fairly friendly atmosphere, unlike one or two other places in Walsall.
|
Used to drink in here all the time, friday nights are especially good, and, unlike the old Talbot, the bikers aren't likely to beat you up at a moments notice. Still referred to as "The Trough" by anyone over 30.

Friendly bikers pub with regular live music and discos, run by members of local bike club. Only problem is that you never know whether they're going to have cask ale on or just keg.
