Old Bush, Wolverhampton

Fairly basic ex-Banks's pub having a modestly refurbished interior with the bar opposite the entrance, a welcome real fire at one end and an area raised by a single step at the other (with a curtained-off room beyond). Mix of furniture and limited decor (although there are remnants of old etched and coloured glazing). Just Wainwright (£3.00) from one of four handpumps.

A detahced cream rendered Banks's pub on the High St, with front and rear patios. The interior had one long room, that i saw, with nice etched windows, even though one was cracked badly. The top end, by the bar that is to the right on entry, is in cream and wood panel, with green carpet and the far end, where the games area is, with a pool table and dart board, is in a terracotta colour, with cream painted wood panel and wood floor. The there were a few pictures and bits of ephemera in the games area - a Laurel and Hardy statuette thing for example. The service was fine and the clientele consisted of a couple of really friendly local chaps. The music was mixed and supplied by the jukebox. Beer; tap stuff with a keg Pedigree, with a Banks's Bitter and a so-so MILD on handpull. This is a basic and proper pub, not sure what it is like at the weekend, but i would go back in if in Albrighton
