The Fieldhouse, Wolverhampton

Solid community local, but also more than that, with an all-day, non-chain food menu . Several different modernised seating and dining areas within the refurbished twin-bar layout. Some wooden benches are also provided at the front to catch the sun in the better weather. Just Old Speckled Hen (£4.00) available from the four handpumps in the main L-shaped bar, but that proved to be in great shape.

A detached pub and restaurant with heated patio area (with its own music) and beer gardens front and rear. The name suits, as it looks like country farm, being in white and beam look, with bay windows that have leaded and coloured glass, a white painted brich extension and a moulded cornice. The interior has two rooms. To the right (when viewed from the front) there is a smallish restaurant - viewed from through the window, it appeared to be in red, with a brick fireplace and high backed comfy chairs, with bistro style pictures. The bar is an L-shaped room with a brick fireplace. It is in mint green, red, with some black patterned wallpaper, with a beamed ceiling and wood floor. I noted a TV, but it was packed, so i smply got a drink and ran outside. The service was OK and the clientele very mixed (though just a couple eating). Beer; the usual tap stuff with four handpulls - the pump clip collection behind the bar was a tease, as the only thing on was the tiresome Bombardier. I had a half, it was well kept, it is just a dreary drink. I made a point of stopping here due to the great review provided by the Monster below. Sadly, it was a disappointment, due to the lack of beer choice and being so busy (not the accuracy of the Monster's review). It may have just been bad luck on my part.
