This place is a very basic and serviceable pub. I had a beer and it met the criteria of being cold and wet. I was also hungry and was told that the only food options were a couple of sandwiches. But I was assured that the sandwiches were quite good. I was told by the bartender that the cheese and onion was the best. Fast forward to a couple of seconds later as I stared in horror at this abomination before me. Perhaps they were just ribbing this yank. I will include a photo. It was a dry roll with the hardest block of cheese know to man and four gigantic rings of raw onion. And that is it! I could barely smell it much less eat it. I love the UK for so many reasons--their sandwiches are not one of them. Perhaps caramelize the onions, or pickle the onions, add some mayo or mustard, anything would have improved this thing. I should have know better as I am still trying to figure out the breakfast ham roll that is ham on a roll (no egg, no cheese, no condiment, no thanks). Love the UK but you could level up the Sammy game. read more

The Wellington (or the "Welly" as it's known locally), has the finest ale selection of any pub in Central Birmingham. It's definitely a Pub (in the old fashioned sense of the word), shunning the modern idea of the cocktail or gastropub. The first thing you will notice when you enter is the décor. It's dark and dingy downstairs - but perfect for meeting up with friends and having a game of cards whilst enjoyed something locally brewed or a bit more exotic (y'know - from locations such as Lancaster). The most modern thing in the downstairs bar is the LCD boards telling you what beer is currently on, its originating brewery and the percentage. It also gives you a guide of whether it's a blonde or dark ale, which is really handy when you're looking at a list of names with no idea of the taste. If you're anything like me, you'll pick something with the most amusing name. Top tip - remember the pump number! There are so many different beers on, the staff struggle to remember the names of all of them, if you can give them a pump number - you'll have a friend for life. If you want to see the great outdoors, head to their brand new terrace (upstairs, through the door). It's a real sun trap and the ideal location to have a break from the hubbub of the city with a good pint. read more

Pub quiz Sunday night! If you like your beer/ales then this place should definitely be on your list! You choose your drink from a blackboard by letter - the guest ales are second to none! I however, preferring 'the dark side' choose 'Pig on The Wall' when I can. There is nothing special about the décor, but I don't think anyone cares. However, since the addition of the upstairs bar and outside seating area, this has improved the pub greatly (outdoor drinking space is quite limited in Birmingham!). Its also worth noting that you can take in your own food - pizza, Thai whatever and they provide the plates and cutlery! Great for a quiet drink with friends, but be careful it does get quite busy on Friday nights! Update-they now have heat lamps outside, ready for those cold summer evenings!;) read more

The Wellington - Plum porter - Pubs Near Me - Birmingham, XWM

Always a great place to drop by for a pint (or five). Visited The Wellington again on a trip back from Coventry to Derby, and it's always worth my - or anybody's - time. 16 taps available upon my visit, including some well-worn favourites like Oakham Citra - but you'll always discover some surprising additions. It goes without saying that the beers are always fresh, and the staff both friendly and knowledgeable. Dedicated smoking/vaping area on the upper floor, nice community atmosphere, a real drinkers' den in the best sense. No food but nibbles - but bring your own! :) read more

The Wellington is as close as you are going to get to a traditional boozer in the centre of Birmingham these days. A lot of the bars and pubs around its Bennetts Hill location have been transformed into modern eateries and diners but this place still has a lot of the charm and character I imagine it would have had 20 years ago. The selection of ales here is really excellent, there are so many to choose from I would recommend asking one of the very knowledgeable bar staff for advice. They seem to know a lot of the lines and have a real passion for them. There had to be around 15 ales on offer when we visited so the help on what to choose was very much appreciated! If you are looking for a first date spot this is probably not the place for you but if you are looking for a good value place with a relaxed vibe to have a few ales with your mates then this is the perfect place! read more

A word of warning for those with a sensitive sense of smell: it pongs a bit in this place - 'essence of muddy wet dog' is the most appropriate description I feel. If you can ignore that, then you can more than satisfy your other senses with the vast array of beer pumps before you - I lost count I was so giddy. Although an oldey worldy looking pub at first glance, they've embraced the technological age and have digital beer menus fixed to the walls which I hadn't seen anywhere else before. Even the likes of (relative) newbies BrewDog use chalk. The place was very busy as it was post-work on a Thursday, so we figured everyone else had decided to ignore the mild stench as well. We managed to secure a booth and settled in to enjoy a pint for their range. As well as a large seating area on the ground floor, there's a smaller seating area upstairs with its own small bar - the windows were open too so pop here for a breath of fresh(er) air! read more

The Wellington - Loadsa beer pumps! - Pubs Near Me - Birmingham, XWM

See all

Hands down this is the best traditional pub in Birmingham. A myriad of different ales - all impeccably kept, a decent selection of ciders and whiskey (including 5 or so Japanese single malts) plus some wines and I think I even spotted some mead in there last night! Downstairs you can choose from loads of ales on tap with a tv showing you the colour, abv and tasting notes for each one. There's a decent amount of seating but it can get pretty busy. Upstairs plays host to a smaller bar with less of a selection of beers (about 6 or so ales, a cider and lager or 2 on tap and a few more ciders and bottles in the fridge) but outside is the crowning glory of upstairs. Nestled away in this city centre pub you'll find one of the loveliest beer gardens - technically a roof terrace - the centre of brum has to offer. This is most certainly a beer drinkers haven, don't expect a wine bar this is a proper pub through and through - a beacon of hope amidst the plethora of gastropubs and cocktail bars. Also worth a note - they don't do food, but will happily provide you with crockery and cutlery if you bring your own. Oh, and the Sunday night quiz is evil! read more

What's the collective noun for a large quantity of ales? A beard? A quaff? Perhaps a pull? Anyway, it could easily be a Wellington of ales. Because this place has a LOT. They have so many, and are changed so frequently, that to avoid confusing the barman you order by pump number, rather than name. "Two pints of seven and a half of twelve" might be a bit of a weird order, but I can assure you, it's going to be a good order, they're quality drinks here. And don't worry if you're a pansy southerner like me who doesn't really agree with the dark stuff, the pub has a load of flat screen TVs dotted about the place showing you what's on offer, the price, the brewery it came from and what kind of drink it is. Quite frankly a genius idea. No food is served here (except for bar snacks - and I felt it appropriate to have a bag of Black County Pork Scratchings...mmmm...coronary) but you can bring in your own. Plates, knives and forks are provided which is an ace little touch. Now, as this is a pub devoted to the blokeiest of drinks (sorry to stereotype but imagine someone who likes ale. Go on. They have a beard don't they...) you might think it to be a little lacking in female touches. Not so. My girlfriend visited the toilets in this pub and came back with a shocked look on her face. "What's wrong?" - Oh no, it's probably a bucket and a filthy rag and a door that wouldn't shut... "The..toilets....they were AMAZING!" Apparently the toilets were the best she had ever seen. I don't quite know what girls want from a pub toilet, but this one had EVERYTHING. The gents are pretty standard. Which was a bit of a let down, considering what was going on next door. Clientele varied from old dudes on iPads to couples on their way to a wedding to guys in suits and everything in between. All happy, all friendly. One of the best pubs I've been to. Like ale? - You'll LOVE The Wellington. read more

The Wellington - Pubs Near Me - Birmingham, XWM

A drinker's pub. It's known for its Real Ale selection but they have plenty of ciders, gins and whiskys too. It's traditional and cosy and not unfriendly. I've always been a bit intimidated by places like this but they certainly welcome anyone who is serious about their booze. I've now been for a whisky tasting and for a Brum Bloggers meet up so I've seen most of the building. There are function rooms on the top floor, and you'll see Welly the cat hanging around here too. Next floor down has a smaller bar, a huge terrace and another room that can be hired out. Downstairs is the main bar area. They don't serve food but they encourage you to order in from Deliveroo, providing plates and cutlery. Had a great evening there last night and discovered that they sell three types of mead. Had a lovely conversation with the woman behind the bar and some customers about the garden mead. Must visit more often! read more

Wowzer. With so many ales that the menu is digitalised and that you order by number, the Wellington certainly made me wish I drank the stuff. It's a traditional pub with a classic feel but, of course, the ale-screens are certainly a modern addition. My band played the Wellington as part of the Birmingham Jazz and Blues Fest on a Saturday evening and the bar was full to the brim and with a great, chirpy atmosphere which made it a fun gig for us and a definite highlight of our stay in the city. Staff were a really friendly and hospitable bunch, sorting us out with three glasses of water before our performance. I'd definitely pop back when I'm next in Birmingham since it was a great bar to relax and enjoy. Sadly, I can't comment on the ales but if someone asked me THE place for ale in Birmingham, I'd, of course, be inclined to say 'The Welly!' owing to its impressive selection. read more

This is possibly my favourite pub in Birmingham city centre since it's been redecorated. It's always had a great selection of ales, but it used to look a bit drab and smell of socks, but no more! It's brighter, clean, and looks like they intend to keep it that way. One of their great beers on tap is Oakham Ales Citra, a light golden ale brewed from the citra hop, amazing stuff, but they have an ale for every taste there, and they always let you try before you buy if you're unsure what to have. They also have what is possibly the largest selection of bourbons, around the 30 mark when I was in recently! For the smokers or lovers of outdoor drinking, they have a roof terrace beer garden which makes a change, so while you don't get much of a view, you do get sheltered from wind. It's a great place to eat the pizza you had delivered ;) They don't do food, but you're welcome to bring your own, I've even seen people have pizza delivered to the door. read more

I was really looking forward to this...... I had been looking forward visiting The Wellington after hearing about it at the Whisky Birmingham Festival. As a birthday treat my partner took me to the upstairs whiskey bar to sample a few rare bourbons. Unfortunately the place felt grubby and messy and we weren't exactly welcomed at the upstairs bar. The bartender was actually very sarcastic and rude. The younger guy was better, took time to discuss the selection with me and let me sniff a few drams before selecting one. The overall atmosphere set by the initial impression ment we we were only going to stop for one. Shame, people who seek out a specialist bar are likely to settle in and spend a few quid if made to feel welcome..... read more

On Wednesdays a group of us form work venture down the Wellington for 'Welly Wednesdays'. Situated in the city centre it has a great location to catch the after-work crowd and those who are out shopping as well. It has seating both upstairs and downstairs and a beer garden upstairs. The garden has about 5 tables and is a good size considering the pubs inner city location. There are heaters for those who want to sit outside the winter and in the summer it does get some sun. There's a large selection of real ales and whiskey on sale, though I've normally stuck to wine. The wine selection is extremely limited and is served in the 175ml/250ml bottles rather than out of a larger bottle. I don't mind this though I'm not a fan of it at all. The pub doesn't serve food but you are able to bring your own food in, we've got takeaway from Bodega and Woktastic and brought it in before with no problems. There's a small selection of board games on offer, such as Jenga which can turn a quiet night into a bit of a riot! The place does get busy. I've been here at 4.30pm and struggled to get a table though other nights it's been fine. It's a good place for after work drinks and having a laugh with some mates. read more

If you're a real ale fan then this is the place for you. You'll be literally spoilt for choice. And to make an evening of it they have quite a fair amount of single malt whiskeys on offer for a nice nightcap before you stumble home. Upstairs contains a large stash of bourbon- of which I've spent many an afternoon globetrotting my way through. A good selection *reasonably* priced if you want to try something different. The wine selection consists of raspberry and peach flavours, served warm. The Wellington certainly isn't for connoisseurs of the fermented grape, but it does offer tastes less travelled as it would be. They have an outside area which is pleasant enough, much more so than the decor which is certainly an acquired taste- your grandfather's to be exact. No food is served (bar a few packets of crisps etc) but you're welcome to bring your own or order in and use cutlery that the pub provides. A proper pub, if you want a proper pint. read more

They say you never forget your first time, and whilst I'm not entirely sure they were talking about visiting pubs, I certainly do remember my first time at the Welly - and it has never failed to impress since. The décor of this place is classic, timeless, traditional British pub. A beautifully wooden bar and back shelves commands a presence in the centre of the room that draws you in. The vintage pictures of Birmingham hanging on the wall help you to genuinely feel at home in this place - there is an atmosphere that simply says "come in, have a drink, take your time", even when it gets busy (and on a Friday and Saturday night it gets rather busy). Up on the first floor you will find an additional bar, a bookable room, and the garden terrace - a rare treat in the city centre and something that fills up exceptionally quickly when the sun even looks like it's about to come out. Up on the second floor is another, larger bookable room - so if you're thinking about having a function, this is the place for you. There is no food offering here, but you are instead more than welcome to bring your own food along, and they'll even provide the crockery and cutlery! I've seen pizzas delivered to this pub before now without people batting an eyelid, just be aware of the people around you if you bring a particularly pungent food along. Onto the important things though - the drinks. The whisky selection in The Welly is a genuine sight to behold. Split across the two bars (scotch downstairs, bourbon and international upstairs), there are bottles that even seasoned whisky drinkers will not have experienced. The whisky menu has been carefully cultivated to offer a superior range of options, and considering the rarity of some of the bottles, the prices are for the most part rather reasonable. The headline attraction however is the ale. The downstairs bar features an incredible 16 handpulls, with at least 10 of them almost constantly rotating with guest ales. You'll notice some brands there (Purity, Oakham, Wye Valley etc), but there are also many many offerings from smaller, lesser known breweries from across the country. In order to keep track, there is a beer board displayed on LCD screens throughout the pub and online through their website, showing beer, brewery, ABV and price (typically very reasonable prices indeed, from £2.90 to £3.70ish). Keep half an eye on this board because odds are a new beer will come on at some point during your visit. As a side note, order your ales by pump number - there are so many constantly coming on that it makes things easier for the staff than ordering by name. The staff at The Wellington are friendly and knowledgeable, as are some of the regulars if you find yourself there without company. There is a drink for everyone here, and if you don't know what it is, you're sure to get help to find it. read more

This packed real ale pub attracts beer lovers young and old alike. The bar gleams with a row of 16 pumps, each holding exquisitely kept cask ale. The choice of beers is so large that the landlord has resorted to listing the beers by number on big screens dotted around the pub, you order by simply giving the number of your tipple of choice. The ales on offer include Wye Valley, Purity and several Black Country Ales. There are three artisanal ciders available for those who prefer apples to hops. No food is served, other than the obligatory packets of crisps and pork scratchings, but you are welcome to bring in your own food - they'll even provide the plates and cutlery. There's a quiz every Sunday evening, starting at 7.30pm. The prize is, quite naturally, a gallon of beer. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the Welly, another one bad influence old school friend introduced to me. It was a busy as hell saturday, the one just before christmas, you know, the one that people suggest you don't go out on because so many people end up hospitalised celebrating a break from work to eat and drink too much? It looked a little run down and a little fairy, but I trusted him, and it was great, very traditional pub, really no frills. This is one of the few places that has all of the craft beers and ales you could possibly want, and a seriously excellent stack of whiskies (this is what I went for) without a hint of hipster. From the reputations of drinks content though, I can understand that some people may be expecting that and be disappointed- but if you're a true craft beer lover, and/or whisky drinker, not just because it's cool, then this is a place for you. I picked a speyside, and Tom glanced along the busy bar at the pump numbers, before giving up and choosing from the LCD screens, yes really, and then headed upstairs, past the awesome whisky bar to the terrace, which even in winter was lovely with it's little heaters and friendly crowd. A very happy pub crawl stop, but very nice to sit in for a casual few too. read more

The yelpers I know brought me here and after hearing so much about it, I decided to investigate for myself. Like most things in Birmingham its an oldish building with a fairly old type of customer. There are groups of younger people here too. You can bring your own food and they even provide you with knives forks and plates!! Great for if you want to have takeaway delivered! (Actually they just got a 5th star for doing that.) If you live in a small town you probably wonder whats so unique about this venue. It's probably just like any old man pub in a small town. The staff are friendly and there's lots of ale on the digital screens to choose from. You can even take a walk around it on google maps!! Check it out. read more

The top ale pub in Birmingham. A combination of the old (traditional pub appearance) and the new (large screen displays the beers currently on (all 12-15 of them), their price, type and strength). I enjoyed a mild and a stout. Because I got the mild in before 1pm, it, Pig on a Wall, was only 1 pound 80. The place was already fairly busy at that time of day, with, as I see it, good reason. Disadvantages? Not much. It doesn't do food, but then it allows you to bring in your own in and makes cutlery available with which you can attack it. It's not really that cosy, but you can't have everything. read more

This is my favourite pub in the whole of the City Centre. Since a lot of my favourite haunts have either closed or else changed into something awful in recent years, this isn't such a bold statement. That said, The Wellington REALLY IS a great pub. Where to start? How about the fact that if you fancy a bite to eat you can bring your own food in and rather than being told to get out, the staff will actually give you a plate and some cutlery? I've literally never heard of another pub that does this. Perhaps that might give an insight into the character of the place. It's a bit of a one off in a city centre that is increasingly like every other city centre. The Wellington is very much a real ale pub. It's beloved amongst the CAMRA crowd, so there will often be a lot of CAMRA-looking blokes at the bar, working their way down the taps and sampling everything that is on offer. You don't have to be an expert to enjoy what they have, though. There is a handy TV screen above the bar that displays the available beers like football scores - rating them in terms of darkness, ABV, and so on. Personally I prefer lager and stick to the rather nice, German Bitburger. This place gets VERY busy from about 3.30pm onwards as folk from the numerous nearby offices drift away from their jobs and stop in for a drink or three. It generally tends to thin out after about 8pm, although I have known it to still be difficult to get a seat late into the evening. All in all, though, a cracking place to have a drink. read more

It's hard to imagine that such atmospheric bar is placed right in the middle of the city centre! Anyway, I had no doubts that The Wellington was the temple of the real ales, in Birmingham, so visiting this pub was in the list of things to do since I arrived here last year. The fact I have been there with some friends- ale experts and beer enthusiasts- would be a plus but even for them it seemed to be a brand new experience. After all, we never know what the beer board reserves! As I knew that would take more than one visit to understand the vast world of ales, I have asked for a pint of "Stairway to Heaven" and when some people told me it was actually a good choice, I made my mind straight away. Another important thing to learn about The Wellington: it's a small pub that tends to be pretty packed so don't expect to find tables and seats available easily or even too much space there. In my opinion, it's just adds to the whole experience. Second thing: in the back of the bar there is a beer garden that takes you straight to another fine pub worth visiting in the area, The Old Joint Stock. read more

There's not too much to say about The Wellington other than it has an exceptional selection of real ales - the best selection in central Birmingham, by far. The place itself is nothing to write home about, but that really isn't the point of the place. It's all about the beer. They always have around 15 different real ales on draught at any one time, and they cycle them pretty fast. Their website says "In 2005 we sold 2610 different real ales which we believe is more than any other pub in the UK." wicked. Another great plus point is it's vicinity to the Old Joint Stock, one of the other essential real ale pubs in Birmingham. You literally walk out of the back door of the Wellington, through the tiny beer garden, and into the Old Joint Stock. Perfect for pub crawls! read more

Real ale paradise. Fifteen constantly changing hand pulls, only one barrel of each allowed! Sometimes they come back if they're particularly good. There's also a decent number of ciders on offer (watch out for neon greensleeves) of varying deadliness! This place is also good if you're not too sure about real ale, but are happy to give it a go. If you're not that open-minded you might get a glare for ordering a Carling, darling. But do give it a try. The staff and regulars are all too happy to recommend particulars for you and begin your baptism of ale... Finishing touches are big here. There's no food but for the odd bag of pork scratchings. What there is though... plates, cutlery, condiments and napkins in case you want to bring your own. Everyone does. When I was working nearby, loads of the suits went to Philpotts (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/56595-Philpotts-Ltd-Birmingham) to pick up sandwiches and took them on to the Welly. And just to show that ale isn't just for blokes and they've thought of the girls too, there's loads of girly stuff to use in the toilets. Oh, and there's a pub cat, called Welly. Sadly, it's all gone a bit sad since the departure of the Essex's best barman (http://www.qype.co.uk/people/jonmhill) , but I shan't dwell on that. Cheers! read more

The best proper pub in central Brum. Real ales are the order of the day as well as a couple of continental lagers and some domestic (strong) ciders. Its all about the real ales though. Service is friendly. No food but your welcome to bring your own - which is a nice touch. Interior is a bit old hat but it matches the style of the pub. Crackin place to enjoy some really good beers! read more

Ah, the Welly. What's not to love? A great atmosphere, a real ale selection that's second to none in the whole of Birmingham, and laid-back staff that are happy for people to bring their own food into the pub, even providing plates and cutlery for those that do! A giant screen dominates the wall near the bar, advising customers as to the current ale selection, as well as offering tips as to the best one to pick if you're not an expert in such matters. The Wellington's great popularity does work against it from time to time, as the place is often so busy that not only can you not find a seat, but by merely standing anywhere in the bar area you can find yourself jostling to make way for someone attempting to get to the toilet, or the exit, or the bar, or back to their table. It can also take a little while to get served at the bar. Small gripes aside, this is one of the best places to drink in central Brum. I know folk from out of town who consider it an essential visit whenever they are in the area. If you can find a table, you're laughing. Either way, you won't regret paying The Welly a visit. read more

I headed up here the other week for a catch up and can't believe I haven't been here before. A pub. A proper pub. No pretentiousness (thank goodness) After a pint of HPA we decided to try out the deliveroo. What a wicked idea! Grab your beer, order your food and it comes to you! Will be returning with more people soon read more

Excellent voice of real ales as all the other reviewers state. Big display screen so you can see what they have before you get to the bar. Regularly added beers as some ran out on the evening we were there so always 15 to choose from. Bit shabby decor but who cares? Ideally located in the centre of Birmingham and not far from the ICC if you need to escape a conference. read more

This is a fab pub for the real ale lovers The outside is inconspicuous and it is subtly tucked away near the top of Bennetts Hill. The inside I like walking into granny's living room!! The range of ale and cider is fantastic. The staff are friendly and knowledgable. You can order by number rather than name using the legend displayed on the to at the end of the bar. The place has a very friendly atmosphere and although politely quiet the place has a calm buzz about it. If Rebus ever visited Birmingham, he would come to this pub!! read more

I love this place! This real ale pub in the centre of town is really chilled out and friendly, with a fab choice of real ales, ciders and spirits. The out door seating upstairs is a lovely (& fairly new) touch. The mix of clientele makes it feel very laid back and friendly. 5/5 - as good as it gets read more

Excellent Real Ale pub, a worthy multiple-CAMRA award winner. The beers are listed on a screen so it's always up to date, and necessary given how many beers they sell! There are bars on two floors and an extensive rooftop terrace. They also show Sky Sports. A short walk from New Street Station too, I'd recommend anyone looking for a proper pint in Birmingham to head right here. read more

I just wish my hotel was a bit closer to The Wellington when I stayed in Birmingham. I did manage to make it here twice. Great Beer that constantly changes. They display on a TV what is currently on tap, where it is from and other details. The bartenders are well versed on what they are serving and will constantly pour you the perfect pint. The setting is inviting. The second time I landed here I spent a couple hours just relaxing at a table playing on my phone and enjoying the company of the locals. I highly recommend you pop in and grab a pint! read more

Fantastic real ale pub. No food, no nonsense, no drama. Great beer. Proper beer. Served and presented with real care and expertise.

I know this place is famous for its huge variety of ales but I'm not an ale drinker :-(. I like the Wellington for a different reason, for the Whisky selection :-)! The only previous time I'd seen a good selection of single malts was in Scotland!.. Birmingham is blessed with this gem. I highly recommend checking this place out for the Whisky if not the ales. read more

Top place in Birmingham to visit if you're looking to try some real ales. Can bring in your own food, they will even give you some plates. Probably the best pub in Birmingham. read more

Very difficult to score this pub less than 5 out of 5, friendly staff, a huge selection of real ale and a great atmosphere.

Real ale, good atmosphere, they have cats! Need I say more?

What can I say about this pub? It's a real ale lover's dream come true with a huge range of wonderful beers to choose from. Do check out the Wellington Beer Board online before visiting, it's the kind of fun research I always enjoy! Whilst you're enjoying a lovely pint of Cintra or Plum Porter, take a look around and you'll see a sea of faces of folk enjoying the experience just like you! read more

As traditional pubs go this is one of my favourites, with a huge selection of ales and also great whiskey choices behind the bar. It is worth asking what they have in with the barrels regularly changing and something new may be unlabelled or unfamiliar. It has a great feel with a really relaxed vibe that will take you away from one of the busiest parts of Birmingham. They don't do food but you can bring your own, and most takeaways and deliveroo will deliver to the pub itself so you can have restaurant quality food in the pub itself. read more

Any pub with a pet cat is alright by me :) I had the honour of meeting him/her and it is adorable. It is what I imagine pubs in the 70s to look like, the kind of place my mum and dad went to drink after work. read more
