The Fieldhouse, Solihull

Large ember Inn with a reasonable choice of beers including ember Pale, Sadlers Worcester Sorcerer, Thornbridge Jaipur, Purity Ubu, Bombardier and Tribute. The Sadlers was fine. A much better beer choice than the other food places in the area!

New-build Ember Inn with a spacious semi-open interior housing numerous seating and (mostly) dining areas. On a fine early autumn evening, some of the patio tables on each side of the entrance were also still in use well after sunset. With seven of eight handpumps in operation, the real ale and cider selection was fairly mainstream - except the Rudgate Hop for Heroes (£3.50, less 20p Camra discount).
