Watched the USA rugby team get beat 64-0 here and it made for a sad time. Drinks were good. No crowd at all.

Of course, a bar is available (of course!) but tee-totallers who enjoy a game of pool are sure to be entertained with over 20 tables available to punters. Unfortunately, as with most pool halls I've encountered (a lot of them that have been Rileys, in fact) it does seem a bit dark and dingy in there - and, given the nature of the place, it does attract large groups of males. I've never encountered trouble in there but a couple of times have received looks off the kind of naughty boys mommy warned me not to play with. Still, people generally keep themselves to themselves and the bar staff are friendly - reasonable pint prices too, so a more than decent way to kill an hour or two when the city's more visceral thrills don't appeal.

I had no idea that 24 hour pool places existed! What an experience on the early hours after closing…read moretime in the nearby Arcadian bars. We had lots of fun, although it was very random! There was a complete mixture of people in there, as you can imagine at 4am in the morning. But random none the less, we had a few games of pool, a couple of drinks and had a really good time. I won't pretend and say that I'm a regular pool player as I'm not. In fact, I'd probably go as far as saying that the only time I'm any good is by fluke. The pool tables seemed good condition but again, I'm not a pro! Even though it was very early in the morning, the staff were all chirpy and seemed happy to have such a lively crowd in!

I will say the music they was playing on the night wasn't to my taste, should of been mixed up more really to everyone's taste, I think we made a few requests not one of them was played. The venue itself is quite big, I think it had a room downstairs but never went down there the main room is quite open space with a dance floor and areas to sit, it also has seats and big smoking area outside so it fits everyone really. It does look like a posh venue to be honest, there was lots of people in suits staff and customers on the night. So I don't know if it was a themed night. The music was generally hip-hop and dance throughout the night i didn't hear many I could dance to. So if you like that give it a try as for crowd, it was general good crowd on a saturday night so lots of friendly faces around.

I've had a couple of good nights there in the past, great music cheap drinks and a great student…read morenight so everything you love in a club. However, there is one issue and that is with the bouncers, I visited Players last night for a friend's birthday and half way through the night a girl spilt her drink down me and headed to the VIP, I then walked over to confront her for not apologising when a bouncer violently grabs me out of the club, I then renter the club to tell my friends what had happened when we came back and put me outside, I then tried to explain to him the situation when we then attempted to swing a punch at me. Ruined the night which is a shame, bouncers need to know their role

Kicked out for no reason. Me and my friends visited today…read more(Wed 20th Nov). The bar was nearly empty. Half of us ordered a snack and a drink and were talking when one of the guys from the bar (who we were told by his co-worker was called Levi) came up to us and said "so are each one of you gonna get a drink or are you gonna have to leave?" When asked "why", he began making up some excuses such as "we have to heat it up it costs to heat this place"? Reminder: the bar was nearly empty and our table had ordered drinks and snacks. As we were leaving I still had my drink and I asked "can we have 5 minutes while I finish my drink", to which he started being rude and said "you can stay, they can leave" and just kept refusing to let my friends wait 5 minutes. When asked to deliver further explanation as to why we are being kicked out, he walked away and did not provide any details. We believe it was unfair for following reasons: 1. The bar was nearly empty, therefore we did not take up anybody's space and nobody was waiting to take a seat. 2. We were PAYING COSTUMERS. 3. We were not loud and did not behave inappropriately. There was no legitimate reason to kick us out of this bar. This was extremely rude and we will not be coming back.

Well this is an unusual place in a fairly deserted Digbeth location. I needed a 30 minute stop over…read moreen-route to a meeting and was directed this way from another 'pub' that didn't do any food. Was starved and needed something, so I popped in. Inside it's pretty large and quite nicely laid out. There are plenty of 'groups of friends' type seating and single and multiple occupy tables, plus some bar stools. There's lots of disco lights and a DJ desk. Sky Sports was on, which I see as a bonus, but with the sound off and text on screen instead. That's OK. Something to watch. So they have decent offers for lunch and a comprehensive, pretty much as you'd expect, pub style menu. I was after something quick and filling, so went for the 'classic' Gammon, egg, chips combo for £5. Service was very pleasant and smiley. The food arrived after ,maybe 15-20 minutes so timing was just about OK. Usual mash potato style chips you get everywhere, so zero taste or texture. Good juicy Gammon and nice fried egg. All was fine, even the side salad. Checked out the drinks selection at the very long, well sorted bar and looked impressive. So, despite being in a bit of an industrial wasteland, I had a good stop-over. There were maybe a dozen people there at 1.30pm on a Wednesday, which to me indicates the place probably has a good batch of regulars. Mix of oldies, lunchies, and business meeting types. It's a modern warehouse of a bar space, but in the right mood and at the right time I can imagine you'd have a good time, a good time, oh yeah!

I have read some negative reviews about this pub said as a not welcoming one, especially if you are…read morenot from the city and I was quite happy to have accepted the challenge of getting a drink there. It's proper the most local of the local ones in Henley-in-Arden, but from the first drink asked to the information given me about the toilet. I felt a really welcoming reception in this pub! To be honest, there is a quite vibrant vibe in this pub that probably made this place a bit more popular than the other ones. jacket union flags, young and really educated staff and some locals enjoying football on the big screen. This seems to be a very good sports bar with a plus: the building is absolutely fantastic. The pub was recently refurbished but the real structures of this medieval construction. They serve a range of real ales as well and the price is quite cheap compared to the other pubs visited in this high street. Beer garden and karaoke are also other attractions of this very spacious and pleasant pub!

This is my favourite pub in town. An interesting selection of real ales and good choice of bar…read moresnacks. The adjoining restaurant serves tasty food in sensible portions with a changing specials board. One small quibble would be that it would be lovely if they included more side vegetable choices. Overall a very welcoming pub if you just want a pint or watch footy on the big screen. A real fire makes it cosy in the winter. Highly recommended.

I am already…read morefamiliar with some of the staff that work at The Red Lion and they have always made me and my friends welcome. I attend The Red Lion at least once/twice a month and never have I been disappointed. They do have a car park on-site but if there are no spaces, you will have to park in the side streets. The Red Lion is a great place to be when watching live sports and there is plenty of atmosphere at the pub. There is a small room you can hire out for a get together or small party. At times you can get that feeling of being crammed in if the room is packed. But the food does make up for it and the reason I regularly visit The Red Lion is because of the food. Both the lamb and chicken dishes are lovely and they also have mixed BBQ's with chicken wings/legs along with sheekh kebab. There are vegetarian dishes available as well to order. A highly recommended pub with great food and great service.

I have to admit, this is not my usual pub of choice. When you walk in it has that typical old…read moreworking mens club vibe. That aside the pub serves great food, the BBQs are my favourite! If you're looking for a cheap pub that plays all the sports on TV then this is for you. I went with a friend to watch the football and have a couple of beers. Overall it had a nice chilled out vibe, unlike some of the city centre sport bars which can get a bit overwhelming at times.
