Multi roomed pub, with 6 separate areas, all decorated with faded, flowery seating. Pool table in one room, darts in another. Several TVs showing cricket. It's under new management and they were still sorting things out. Not very friendly though, which won't help. 4 handpumps on the bar, but only Unicorn available. I had a half, it was poor. That won't help either. It's got potential, but at the moment it's just not very good.

A real traditional multi-roomed pub. Smelled like your grandparents house. Robinsons stuff available.

Great example of a multi-roomed pub on Shaw Heath, and one of the many Robinson's houses in the area. There are at least 5 rooms including a games room, a snug and a smoke room, in fact the whole pub seemed like a smoke room on my pre-ban visit last March. Central to all of these rooms is a small bar that has so little counter space that during busy times (like when County are playing at home) the punters have to queue up like at McDonalds. There is also an upstairs function room. About 10-15 mins away from the station and the football ground but far enough away so as not to attract too many away supporters (they'll be in the Armoury). Nice pub, friendly locals and decent beer (no Old Tom), worth a visit if you're in the area.
