Having said the food may be not the best quality food around don't let this put you off from visiting the food is tasty and very good just that I prefer my beef medium and vegetables cooked to the bite. We visited with some friends so there were 4 Adults and 4 kids on a Saturday afternoon we only had 2 drinks each and the bar bill was twice the cost of the food. The staff were very attentive without being over powering, the young lady tending to us was very pleasant and struck up a rapport with us very quickly. Give it a go you won't be disappointed at all :-)

The bar staff have an endless knowledge of the products on sale and are obviously all real ale fanatics themselves. They are very friendly, polite and easy to approach.

A traditional Olde English Ale house with many ales on tap and good beers…read more We had been told of a legendary steak and ale pie which we sadly did not receive. The menu is pub grub and I thought pretty average to be honest. Of the three meals we had I thought two were pretty ordinary. The atmosphere however is great and it is well patronised by locals. The toilets are diabolical but no worse than most pubs, and a nice looking beer garden must be good in summer.

This olde worlde cottage style pub is located on quite a steep hill between Old Hill and Blackheath. It is decorated with the fairly typical pub bric-a-brac and has some old fashioned charm about it. They serve hot food and some cobs and snacks during the day. Lots of people rave about the quality of the ales on tap including Batham's, Enville and Holden's. Yet The Waterfall can get very busy at times and it is tricky to get served and find a seat.

I am a big fan of mexican food so I didnt set my expectations too high when I ordered a shaved steak burrito, after all it was weatherspoons. Boy was I in for a treat! Tasty, succulent filling, fresh and floury tortilla wrap and three generous dollops of salsa, sour cream and guacamole on the side. Just enough heat to be pleasant and not overpowering. Two of us ate (Julie had pulled pork quesadillas with rice), had drinks (mexican beer with the obligatory lime wedge in the neck of the bottle) and all for under £14.

I decided on a Friday morning breakfast from my new local and as much as I would love to write that…read moreI had a pleasant meal and experience, unfortunately I was sadly disappointed. I ordered eggs royal and some toast for the children I also had a filtered coffee which was unlimited refill. The toast was missing for our order and my muffins were so hard they were unedible. After a wait at the bar to ask for the toast and to change my muffins I decided to sit down as the service was so slow. Eventually after everyone in my party had finished eating I caught the eye of the waitress who apologised and changed my breakfast and brought the toast, by which time we were not wanting the toast (as I said everyone had finished their breakfast). While waiting on my seconded breakfast i went to get another coffee however the pot of coffee was empty so i had to wait more than 10 minuets to get a refill. My second breakfast was lovely and all the members I was out with did have a good experience.

Hmm, where to start…read more.. ...I guess I could start by pointing out that no one local calls The Swan by its proper name. It is known locally as "Jaspers". I don't know why. Jaspers is the starting point for many a "crap town pub crawl". It epitomises the genre of pub I affectionately refer to as "bit of a crap hole". I rarely swear, but I've used the less offensive c-word twice already in this review. So you should be aware by now that this place is more than a bit pants. I just asked my husband for a slightly nicer way to describe the interior and he has come up with "spit and sawdust". Though I'd say there's more spit than any actual woodshavings. A redeeming feature is that they serve Holden's ales, yet the rest of the bar is pretty bog standard stuff. The names of the weekly DJs and entertainers displayed on the boards outside are always quite funny.

If you've been to a Black Country pub it does exactly what it says on the tin and is my favourite…read moreof the Delph pubs, nice and quiet to enjoy a good pint. If you haven't experienced the Black Country way of drinking then give it a go :) The pub usually just has the landlord as bar staff (though at busier times you may see an extra helper) who knows all the locals by both name and "usual" from the bar. Although on entry the bar is fairly basic lager, ale, stout, scratchings, crisps and house spirits it's the way the experience comes together; there's always a friendly vibe and a nod of "how do?" from the locals when you enter, the ale is near perfect from the taps every pint (also helped be being one of my favourite ales - Enville!). TV channels on the flat screen can be changed at request and if you don't fancy the wooden clad bar room there is the slightly plusher lounge or the smoking shelter / mini beer patio out back. Always an enjoyable visit!

Numerous wines available plus a full liquor selection. Food was good, on par with a Chili's in US, definitely better than the place next door. Service was order at the bar, as seems typical here in Birmingham, but bartender accepted my request to run a tab which is definitely not the norm in this area, so that was nice. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely recommend.
