This historic Grade 2-listed building is Birmingham's finest example of Victorian pub architecture, resplendent in decorative tiles and stained glass.
The pub serves Oakham's award-winning real ales, guest ales from the region and across the country and imported bottled beers from around the world. Authentic freshly cooked Thai food is served from 12 noon-2.30pm and 5.30-10pm Tuesday to Sunday.
One of Birmingham's true gems.

Excellent food and drink, yes, and lovelier than many old churches, though too much inappropriate piped pop music for my taste, the evening I was there. Only a short bus ride from New Street Station.
