A fantastic building from the outside, especially considering its in Birmingham, as historic as it gets. Its a bit tavern-like inside, and just needs that je ne sais quoi?

Could be a lot better, as review below, but gets probaly 2 extra marks from me purely for the exterior. It just seems somebody is possibly just playing with the historic theme?

The beer is truely aweful (1363)

Oh! my Lord.

The Banks's MILD was pretty poor and the place full of ladies exhuding a narcissim far more potent than the beer.

The oldest building in Birmingham of course actually means a few roof beams from the old school, if indeed, anything. It is twee and souless, as they have surgically removed any historic charm

I am sure more will be attracted to the plastic tot, than be upset by the loss of historic charm
