The Vine (Bull & Bladder), Brierley Hill

Fantastic pub, great atmosphere and really good beer. Definately worth making the trip to visit

The Crooked House, Gornal Wood

Visited this pub for the first time in several years. While the building is still fantastic and it is great fun to get the marble from the bar to examine the tilt, the service was poor and the atmosphere weak. Like previous posters we were forced to have plastic glasses outside, even though it was only 3 pm in the afternoon, whilst inside we had to ask the barman to stop playing the same song on repeat over and over again - he did this about 8 times in a row. A real pity as this pub used to be a real diamond.

Lamorna Wink, Penzance

A bizarre experience like travelling back into the 1950s into an Agatha Christie book. Pub run by two old ladies and filled with faded photos and strange locals. However pub lunch was good particularly the crab sandwiches and beer OK
