	Long Arm Short Arm Welwyn Garden City › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	McMullen's pub in a prominent, slightly elevated, position on the Old North Road just north of the bridge. The black and white photographs on the local history displays show how the building has changed over the years, and it now has a 'L'-shaped la... [more>]
	The Sun Inn Welwyn Garden City › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Historic pub on the Old North Road just south of the River Lea bridge with colourful hanging baskets on the fence enclosing the front patio benches. However, the interior has been completely madeover, with the 'L'-shaped bar and side restaurant both... [more>]
	The Crooked Chimney Welwyn Garden City › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Attractive old inn, with no prizes for guessing what the distinguishing feature is... but its certainly unusual. The 'L'-shaped interior has been largely opened out and thoroughly refurbished, but in the usual Vintage Inns way it comprises a mix of ... [more>]
	John Bunyan St. Albans › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Very pleasant McMullen's country pub set behind the triangular green of a small hamlet southeast of Wheathampstead. The two-room interior has been given an unexpectedly light makeover with 2/3rd-height wood panelling on the walls, above which there ... [more>]
	The Swan St. Albans › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Not really sure whether Wheathampstead isn't really a small town rather than a large village, but this is just the sort of understated pub you would hope to find in a place like this. Partly opened-out inside to leave three distinct areas in an over... [more>]
	Reading Rooms St. Albans › Hertfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	This micro-pub is also the local Farr Brew tap, offering their Pale (£3.50, and so-so) and Bitter plus Rother Valley Golden Valley as a guest and Lilley's Apples & Pears 'cider'. Comprises two small rooms in an appealing alehouse style, with a coupl... [more>]
	The Globe Dunstable › Bedfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Side-street alehouse with an elongated bar, an attractive side lounge and another side room at the back. Run by Banks & Taylor, although I couldn't see any of its beers on the eight of 12 operational handpumps. Having said that, the choice of guest... [more>]
	The Gary Cooper (JD Wetherspoon) Dunstable › Bedfordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Large 'L'-shaped 'spoons named after the Hollywood star nearby before emigrating to America with his family. Housed in one corner of the large modern Dunstable Centre development (with BBC Three Counties and the Grove Theatre as neighbours), this ha... [more>]
	Verso Lounge Stafford › Staffordshire Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Typical modern Lounges café bar in the complex housing the county council offices, central library, etc. Bright, multi-coloured interior plus plenty of small tables out in the plaza. Standard selection of beers as elsewhere in this chain, with Bath... [more>]
	The Coppice Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Basic estate pub retaining its twin-bar layout, with the public bar at the front being home to the pool table and dartboard. Seating in this room is mostly limited to the peripheral padded benches, but there is a larger lounge further back with a re... [more>]
	Joe Joe Jims Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Strange place this - part bar, part music venue and part amusement arcade - harking back to its historical roots as Joe Fletcher's emporium to entertain Brummies on a day-out to the Lickey Hills. Very mixed furniture and decor, inside and out, inclu... [more>]
	The Oak Tree Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Now branded by Marston's as Generous George family food outlet, there is little to note in the various seating / dining areas scattered about the central servery, all with anonymous semi-modern furniture and decor. However, there is also a small pat... [more>]
	Old Hare & Hounds Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Ember Inn located on the edge of the Birmingham conurbation beside the Lickey Hills Country Park. Definitely more attractive externally than within the comprehensively remodelled and refurbished interior which has lost any character the older parts ... [more>]
	The New Rose & Crown Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Now the only pub left in the middle of Rubery, and even this looks very run down from the street. Things look up (very slightly) once inside since the main bar area is tidy enough. There are also rooms at the far end and further back, both refurbis... [more>]
	Scruffy Murphy's Birmingham › West Midlands Recommended by Just a quick pint, then I'm off	Dismal-looking pub housed under the corner of a multi-storey car park; obviously a rock pub, but once inside you find a 'L'-shaped room decorated in more of an alehouse style. Seating is mostly on pew-type benches, but in one corner there is a sligh... [more>]
