Very nicely refurbed but the bar staff are about the most useless I have ever come across - they prefer to lark about rather than serve customers. My wife and I had to sit there and listen to one of them F'ing and Blinding with his drunken mates and making stupid mobile calls to them. I still has a lot of rough chavvy clientele left over from its previous incarnation.
I actually wonder if they have anyone in charge!
I have used it because it is the closest pub within walking distance. In future it will be the Forest, The Oak or the Lickey Club.
