Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Horse & Jockey
Large Ember Inns establishment with a wide variety of seating / dining areas within a slightly split-level interior. Usual sort of semi-modern furniture and decor, and very much food led (to the extent that those just looking for a drink had to stand around the bar as all tables were full of diners). Quiz nights advertised three nights per week. Fair selection of seven real ales from the ten handpumps divided between the two parts of the bar counter, of which the seasonal 'house' (Black Sheep) Snow Place like Home (£3.35) was a new one on me.

Ember Inns pub with a really good selection of real ales, nicely kept, friendly staff and clientele! Would make it worthwhile coming back to Sutton Coldfield!

An impressive detached corner Ember Inns pub and eatery with patio area. This early 20th century looking building is in undressed brick, white render and black beam and white board in part mock Jacobean style.
As it is an Ember Inn the inside is formulaic, it is an open plan area, partitioned-up. It has sofas, comfy chairs and high stools and is set-up really for the dining experience, which of course, I didn’t take part in, so I can’t comment on that. The walls are the familiar, reds, whites, creams, browns, with some patterned wallpaper and a white ceiling. The vases are out as usual, with some mirrors and some old photos of the area, as well as of their food. Chopped wood is also placed next to the open hearth gas fires. The service was functional, probably because it was so busy as it was quiz night. I managed to watch a little footy on the TV to distract me long enough to finish my drink before getting out, as the music round on the quiz got very loud.
Beer; tap stuff, with Rev James, Brew XI, Purity Ubu and a reasonable Timothy Taylor Golden Best on handpull
Great place for those that like safe chain-owned places; I just find them dull.
