About Cafe Metro Bar
Cafe Metro Bar is a pub on Church Street in Bilston, hosting live music and entertainment alongside a drink-led format. The bar carries a wide selection of beers and ciders, and the kitchen serves cobs in crusty bread rolls for a quick bite alongside the drinks.

“Really enjoyed stopping here for a drink. It seemed quite dark when we first walked in after being out in the sunshine, but once our eyes adjusted it felt very cosy and relaxing. There was a good selection of drinks and the staff were lovely throughout our visit. One member of staff accidentally bumped into me while walking past and apologised several times, which was appreciated. We also asked for the Wi-Fi password and they joked with us before kindly writing it down on a slip of paper for us. There was briefly a power cut while we were there, but it was sorted quickly. There was a very good selection of music played. We’d happily come back again.”
