Not a bad place with a couple of ales on. Most people eating but still worth popping in for one.

A typical Sluggy Lettuce place but, unlike the majority of the ones I've been in, this one does have 3 handpumps on the bar. Sadly one serving a Purity beer had just gone leaving only Wye Valley HPA as the only one beer of the 3 handpumps available. As noted it is an L-shaped interior and has the usual Sluggy decor. It's probably a nightmare of a weekend but it wasnt as bad as I was expecting on this Thursday afternoon. One of the better Slugs I've been in, which isn't great.

The current trendy place to be in Harborne, and vying with The Plough as the most outrageously expensive.Food is pretentious and comes in very small portions. Two choices of real ale. OK for a quick one, but not a place to spend all night in!

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Slug & Lettuce

Substantial bar / restaurant - previously the Proverbial, and before that the Varsity - with a variety of seating and dining areas in an overall 'L' shape. Semi-modern furniture and decor of a style reminiscent of an Indian restaurant. Mid-level music. On the plus side, it does at least have two handpumps, offering Doom Bar and the local Backyard Blonde (£3.00, and in surprisingly good form).

A Smith & Jones (?) pub. Open plan with ghastly wallpaper. Food was poor, Beer ok. Loud music/DJ on a Sturday night.

Soup Dragon left this review about The Varsity

A half brick facade terraced pub

The interior is open plan around the central bar area. This dull and soulless foody layout kind of place is in white, red and brick, with Sky TV, a few mirrors and nothing much in the way of pictures leaving the air conditioning pipes as the most interesting thing in the place. The service was fine, the clientele mixed.

Beer; tap stuff with GK IPA on handpull, as well as a Brains SA that was pretty dire.

Oh! God, dont waste your time.
