The Head of Steam, Birmingham

Strongers . left this review about The Head of Steam

The Head of Steam has seating, televisions, two dartboards, a pool table, two pinball machines and a shuffleboard table past the entrance at street level before steps that climb to the bar area where there’s an island bar with a tile floored apron that edges onto the wooden flooring that runs throughout. More televisions with live sports are found throughout and beer shelves run up the right-hand wall. Behind the island bar are a couple of rows of thick wooden tables with padded benches and booths run along the rear wall. In the front right corner is a separate raised seating area that had been hired out for a private party during a recent Wednesday evening visit. Premium and mainstream craft keg options are available from the counter that was also supporting cask options of Green Duck Beer Co’s Shore Line and Meltdown, Titanic’s Steerage, Northern Monk’s Mills Hills and SUP, Vocation Brewery’s Naughty & Nice Honeycomb Crunch Chocolate Stout and the Head of Steam Gold. I’d had a few lagers so decided to have a Jubel which set me back nearly £8, that’ll learn me! I thought the service was miserable and there was no atmosphere even though there were a few people in. There are better, and cheaper, options nearby.
