Opposite the bus station/metro terminus, the temporary-looking sign outside says micropub but it’s much bigger than your average (part of the former Vauxhall, I read). Interior comprises of greys and blues with chequerboard flooring – it’s quite busy. 2x Woodcote cask and a Lilley’s cider. My Oatmeal Stout was freezing but in good nick (NBSS 3.5) as was the XPA (3) served-up by a friendly barmaid. A downside was the cold temperature inside – we kept our coats on. Serves a useful purpose. 6.5

Perfect spot for a pub, right on the bus / rail station. This was a regular of mine when it was the Vauxhall / Rock Station back in the day. Now a tidy little micro with a cider from Lilley's and 2 ales on. Bewdley Worcestershire Way and Woodcote Ruby mild. Both were fine. Happy to call again.

This former rock pub is now split into a takeaway on the left hand side and micropub on the right. This micro has a prime spot here, close to the bus exchange and the shuttle train stop to Stourbridge Junction.
The interior has a small front lounge with a large bay window and ample seating. The walls were timber clad in grey with blue painted walls. There was a small bar area off this with a roughly clad timber bar front, along with a black kitchen counter top. Three handpumps serving one cider and two beers Woodcote Brewery Spa and Woodcote Ruby Mild, from Bromsgrove. We went for the Woodcote Spa, Supreme Pale Ale, which was in good shape and reasonably priced. A few pics of pooches around the walls related to the pubs name. The pub also had an array of cobs on offer.

New micropub due to open soon. This new venture is housed in a small part of what was the Vauxhall pub.
