    I've only been to The Slade Rooms twice, both times to see Richard Herring, so I can't comment on…read morethe sound quality for bands but as a comedy venue it's pretty good. Slap bang in the middle of Wolverhampton you can't really miss the place, access is easy - we drove from Brum both times and had no trouble parking. Handy tip - Broad Street Car Park is £2 after 17:30 until 5 a.m. The bar is, well it's a little gig venue bar. So it's a bit of a dive. Which I love, the decline of the dive bar in Birmingham saddens me a little so it's nice to go somewhere with sticky floors and splinters. But it's reasonably priced. We got a couple of pints of Fullers New World which cashed in at only £3.10 a pint. Much less than the £4+ I've paid for it at a certain joint stock in Brum. The main room is... cosy for a comedy gig, they squeeze you in as much as possible. It's always been unallocated seating when we've been so if you dare sit at the front you'll benefit from much more leg room! Nice little venue, much lighter on the wallet than other comedy venues I've been to.

    The Slade rooms isn't far from the train station and across from the Chubb Works building. The bar…read moreis a large open area with limited seating, the drinks are reasonable and the service is quick. The only thing that really disappointed was to do with the gig. The bands were so loud that you couldn't tell one song from the next and the buzzing from the speakers was awful . I think at least one of the speakers were blown, the sound was terrible. In fairness, I don't know if the bands use their own sound engineers or if they were the venues? (Rock City has the same problem but to a lesser extent and isn't as noticeable). The room itself if a good size with some seating round a corner if you want to get out of the way a bit. I would go back for drinks and I like it as a bar, I would give it another go for a band but I wouldn't expect too much.
