UPDATE: Looks like it has been converted to living accommodation.
*****************
Sep 2009: A free standing 19th century pub, which, although called the Station Hotel, had nothing to do with the railway companies themselves, but was place outside of where the original Bloxwich station was.
The interior is open plan, with a large bar as soon as you walk in and seating all around, with a dart area in one corner.
The pub, a few years back, was a real nice place, friendly, with an olde world jukebox and railway memorabilia on the walls. A succession of gaffers and reliefs has really killed this place. Sadly, the memorabilia has gone, being replaced by some generic art pictures - which gives the impression of brightening the place up (more plain white wall!). The service was at best functional.
The beer had always been the usual stuff, with Theakston's MILD and Bitter on handpull, and Dark Smooth on keg. The handpull MILD was rancid, and i returned it. I couldnt really work out what the bar chap said, but he did replace the pints, but with the keg, as he turned the pump clips around for the MILD and bitter. The keg wasnt good, my mate left half of his - i finished mine. We left.
Sadly, during the swapping of gaffers, i had a poor pint here and it will be a long while before i return. I hope it improves, I really do

The Station Hotel on station street is'nt that close to the train station.
This is a stand alone pub and once inside there was one smartish room that was fairly comfortable and there were three real ales on the bar i had a drink of Banks's mild and this was a decent drink there was also Ansells bitter and a guest beer.
i thought this was a decent enough pub to have a drink in.
