The Court House, Dudley

Solidly built brick corner pub with stone framed leaded windows, HANSONS is carved into the lintel above the door. There is a small, twig decorated snug served by a hatch at the front and a larger open plan bar behind. Sixteen handpumps grace the main bar counter, serving ciders and local micro brewery beers mainly from Black Country Ales based in nearby Lower Gornal. There is also a small range of UK kegs. The large room is equipped with smart bench seating, tables and chairs, at one end is an area with balustrades and an open fire. The only wall décor is a number of framed adverts for Black Country Ales and a beer menu blackboard. Beer quality was well up to standard and the service was friendly and quick, I visited on a wet Monday night so there were only a few other customers, of mixed ages and genders but all friendly enough and enjoyuing the fine ales. Quite a handy pub for Dudley Bus Station and local take away emporiums.
