Quinno _ left this review about The Colmore
Upmarket Thornbridge pub, a modern conversion from a former bank premises and on the CAMRA OCR list. Really rather lovely inside and clearly a modern refit but with a traditional layout and feel (polished oak effect wood panelling and trim, leather, glass partitioning, green metro tiling etc) with plenty of areas and things to see – the feel to me was of an upmarket grand old Mittel Europa hotel bar. There’s a pool room in the basement. Absolutely rammed on a Thursday early evening so didn’t get a relaxing experience and was squashed onto a small table behind a pillar but it’s churlish to complain about a pub being popular. Six cask on, mainly theirs; my Coco was a bit fag end but drinkable enough (NBSS 2.5). I’d be making a point of doing this one again at a quieter time.

Great bank conversion with different areas towards the rear of the building. Thornbridge beers & a good keg selection.

Visited earlier this month. Eight hand pulls offering mainly Thornbridge beers but some guests too. Various keg beers also available.
A grand feeling building with different sections and a mix of seating styles. Busy at the time of my visit just before 4pm on a weekday afternoon, but seats were available. My Thornbridge / Kelham Island Frank & Joy (4% pale ale) was pleasant and refreshing, and reasonably priced at £2.30 for a half.
