The Jewellers Arms, Birmingham

The Jewellers Arms is one of those pubs i like the look of,it is situated in the heart of the Jewellery Quarter. Once inside the pub has two seperate rooms,the lounge is to the right,this is a square shaped room that is almost divided into two halfs,the front half is larger and had comfy bench seating on both sides facing each other,the rear half is similar in style,the room is carpeted and seemed well kept. The bar to the left is smaller and had a pool table in it. There was only one real ale on the bar,but this was a nice one from Hobsons brewery,Hobsons bitter,this went down very well. The pub does food and there were plenty eating,the pub was also packed in the lounge with what looked like football suporters,probably Birmingham fans but they seemed friendly enough. I quite liked this pub. Pub visited 17/8/2013

This is a nice looking Victorian corner terrace pub, with a couple of benches outside, in the heart of the Jewellery Quarter. The pub exterior is mainly in a cream rendered upper (with a large sign on the wall of a jeweller and sash windows), with a green painted lower. There is also some undressed brick on the side. The interior has two rooms, served by a central bar. The bar has it's own access door at the corner of the pub and seems to be less used than the lounge. It is in green and white decor with a few prints on the walls. The lounge is near bisected in two by a wall. It is in yellow and cream patterned wallpapered walls, with a green cornice and a bit of red. There is a loud carpet and some coloured glass. There are Victorian pictures and prints on the walls. There is a small serving hatch in the corner where you can get bar food, but i haven't eaten here so can't comment on that. There are TVs in both rooms usually with Sky Sports on (or the horse racing) and the music when on is general and at a decent level. The service is always fine and the clientele mixed, usually locals and it is usually busy. Beer; usual tap stuff with a good Highgate MILD and a class Hobson's Bitter on handpull. This pub has just got better and better. It is the locals pub in the area. Always worth a visit for the Hobson's bitter or the Highgate MILD. I like it.

a good all rounder
