This is a two floor pub, one at street level and a further floor at canal level. You can't stand on the canalside as the door is shut and no drinks are allowed outside. It's getting to be a bit dated decor wise and could do with a rethink. It has nine handpumps with possibly the most boring selection of real ale available anywhere in Birmingham for a pub with such a selection. One of the handpumps does sell Addlestones cider though. I had a pint of Jennings (Marston's) Cockerhoop, it was OK but I was charged £3.10 for it!!! What a rip off for round here. It has loads of potential and used to be a decent pub, but at the moment it's just not very good. I won't be bothering again for a while.

Real ales and proper scrumpy in this tiny canalside pub, situated just off busy Broad Street. Food available. Service and quality of beer fluctuates wildly
