Rock Steady Eddies, Walsall

This is a detached low level corner pub/pool and snooker bar and music venue, in white painted brick. The interior has two rooms that i saw. On the left on entry is the public lounge bar and this is where i went as the room to the right was in darkness - not sure if that was the function room they advertise, or where there is a snooker table. The lounge is a straight-forward open plan rectangular room, with a couple of pool tables and a dart board. The decor has a couple of half coffee and half white walls, contrasted with half brown and half white walls. There is an undressed brick fire-place and a DJ area and tiled floor at one end, where bands set up, i guess. The music was supplied via the juke-box and the TV was on, with general BBC stuff. The service was friendly and a couple of lads and an older chap were in. There are some UJ's and St George's flags on the walls, as well as a banner of the 2nd Mercian Volunteers, who meet here. There were no pictures. Beer; no real ale, all tap stuff, with a decent enough keg Banks's MILD. Less a pub, more a music venue and games place - but it has a public bar, which seems nicer than many of the so-called pubs in Walsall. No good for the real ale fan, but great if you fancy pool and are happy with the keg stuff.
