Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Colmore
This pub has been doing good business since opening 2019, and it is now a core part of the central Birmingham scene. The interior is much larger than one might expect, going well back past the bar area, with a snug en route and a couple of partly screened seating / dining areas further back. All nicely done and well lit. The choice from the eight handpumps this time was four Thornbridge ales - including the Nature's Pace XPA (£4.90) and various guests, together with a similarly mixed selection of craft keg beers from the counter and bar-back taps.

Quinno _ left this review about The Colmore
Upmarket Thornbridge pub, a modern conversion from a former bank premises and on the CAMRA OCR list. Really rather lovely inside and clearly a modern refit but with a traditional layout and feel (polished oak effect wood panelling and trim, leather, glass partitioning, green metro tiling etc) with plenty of areas and things to see – the feel to me was of an upmarket grand old Mittel Europa hotel bar. There’s a pool room in the basement. Absolutely rammed on a Thursday early evening so didn’t get a relaxing experience and was squashed onto a small table behind a pillar but it’s churlish to complain about a pub being popular. Six cask on, mainly theirs; my Coco was a bit fag end but drinkable enough (NBSS 2.5). I’d be making a point of doing this one again at a quieter time.

Great bank conversion with different areas towards the rear of the building. Thornbridge beers & a good keg selection.
