The Flower Pot, Trinity Way, West Bromwich

This is a modern detached Banks's pub with patio area. It is of brick, with an area of scalloping above the entrance. The roof extends one side and some dormer windows have been inserted to break-up what is a dull, functional building. The interior has a couple of rooms. The back room is a lounge that i did not see. The front room is the bar, and is in cream and wood panel, with a white ceiling and red tile floor. There are no rela pictures, just a few trophies for interest. There is a pool table and a dart board, as well as a TV, which was showing 'Grease'. There was no music. The service was OK and the clientele were a good mix, with a few tables of dominoes going, where the older guys were smashing them down like in the 'old days'. Beer; no real ale, just usual tap stuff with a not-to-good M&B MILD. A busy community pub, but nothing really for a real ale drinker.
