The Park Tavern, Kingswinford

This is a detached Victorian corner pub with a beer garden. The pub is of a cottage-style, extended at the back and is in cream, with black bay windows on a stone foundation, and a dog-tooth cornice. The interior has a couple of rooms. To the left is the lounge, which is in a cream flower wallpaper, with red chimney breasts and a white and beam ceiling. Red perimeter seats are matched with the carpet. There are a couple of fireplaces. There are lots of paintings of the pub and other places on the walls. The TV wasn't on in here. The other room is the bar - where a coiple of TVs were on showing the tennis. This room is in green and white, with a green brick fire. There is a dart board and a few plates and ornaments. The service was fine and the place busy with a mixed clientele. Beer; usual tap stuff with Enville Ginger, Bathams Bitter and Timothy Taylor Landlord on handpull - the beer was really good. A class little place and one you could spend all day in. Definitely worth a visit.

Visited Monday 24th Jan 2011. A busy local serving Bathams Bitter, Enville Ale, and guest beers Purity Ubu, Beartown Bear Arse - all of good quality. Also available are various 'gas drinks', cobs and crisps etc. Bar staff could be more welcoming. The new manager has settled in well and has stopped the 'fall' and made the Park nearly as good as when Phil was in charge.
