Why, when there are so many other boozers near to the station?

I'd always recommend going to Bonehead, just by the casino if you're at New Street. Amazing chicken and great beer. I had a samphire and lime gose there last week.

And Cherry Reds next door, of course

Were after a quick bite to eat and it's no better or worse than any of the other fast food joints in that locale. Plus Mrs T likes All Bar One so browny points earned.

Having gone from Bacchus to the Shakespeare last week I realised they were basically the same pub, exactly the same drinks on offer.

The Shakespeare by the station is a den of thieves

The Shakespeare by the college has dirty chips , far better.

To beer, or not to beer

Like the one by the station.

Is the actual pinball bit downstairs? We walked past last week but it was so empty at street level we didn't bother.

I believe they have machines in the basement, on the ground floor and on the first floor. So far, I haven't made it beyond the ground floor bar.

Argh - typo

Great Western should have said the wellie.

The Great Western is in Wolverhampton.

I've not been to this place yet but I keep meaning to go. I may go tomorrow lunchtime.

Mind you, the Great Western used to be a grand place to spend the odd afternoon.
Bring on the Bacon & Grey Pays.
It's been a while.

I used to go there every Friday for a pint of Bathams and a steak pie. Fantastic place.
