The Old Contemptibles, Birmingham

They do have an intersting range of beers on, I don't really like the panelled glasses, might seem a small thing but I swear beer never taste as good out of them. Due to the proximity of large multinationals this place is almost always full to burtsing with suits, so if you don't like a side of self-importance with your beer then your much better off in the welly.

The Newhampton Inn, Whitmore Reans

Best Pub in Wolves, there isn't really anywhere else worth drinking. I'd prefer they had some more micro's on rather than Theakstons/Fullers but that's just my preference, the Landlord has always been spot on. The interior and garden are both great, nice place to be....

Victoria, Birmingham

Cool pub, good mix of people, there are better places for choice of beer, but in terms of environment/atmosphere I think this is as good as it gets in Brum. A similar sort of things as the Fighting cocks in Mosley or the Hare & hounds in Kings Heath.

Apparently the same people now own the Jekyll & Hyde up near Snow Hill, which can only be a good thing.
