Woodman Inn, Wolverhampton

A large detached Punch Tavern’s Two for One pub, which actually appears to be several building that appear to have been turned into one. It is in a mock Tudor style, with beer garden. The interior consists of a separate bar and a lounge/dining area. The bar is mainly in yellow and has the ceiling and support beams. It has darts, table footy, a poker table and a TV. The lounge/dining area has a separate entrance. The lounge is in half brown and half red walls, with white ceiling and is divided up into little booth seating areas. There was a TV above a marble effect fireplace and a number of animal based and other prints on the walls. A stairway took you into the large dining area, which was rammed with tables, and too be fair, people as well. The décor was cream with white ceiling. The service was fine, the clientele mixed and there was a nice mix of background music at a decent level. Beer; all tap stuff, no real ale, with a decent keg Highgate MILD. Another place that I wasn’t really looking forward to going, but turned out to be a better experience than expected. Despite no real ale, there was a good Highgate keg and clearly it is popular for food – too popular for me, being miserable, there were too many in the dining area for me to feel comfy with. Next time – it’s the bar room for me.

Good pub for grub (a Spirit Group Inn) but NO REAL ALE offered. As picture shows meals are two for one at all times. Large car park.
