About The New Inn
On Ward St in Bilston, The New Inn is a Holden's brewery pub serving real ale. The pub runs a quiz night on a tablet instead of paper sheets, and it fields its own darts team. Football scores are shown on the screens for anyone following the matches. Dogs are welcome, and the team has treats for them. Cobs are sometimes available for those who want a bite with their pint.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the beer, describing nicely kept real ale from a Black Country brewery and a pint that is never bad. Close behind are the friendly, welcoming staff and a local atmosphere that one says is felt as soon as you walk in. Monday quiz night gets warm mentions, and the darts team is credited with first class banter. One reviewer found the tablet-based quiz hard going, though, because bonus points go to the first team to answer, which seemed unfair to slower players. Food draws mixed comments. One says the pub no longer serves cooked food, although cobs are sometimes available, while another says that under new management the interior has had a much needed spruce up and the food is decent. A few mention watching the Saturday scores come in, and one notes meaty bone shaped treats for well mannered dogs.

“This is a nice traditionelle pub with friendly staff and a welcoming vibe. The pub no longer caters for cooked food although cobs are sometimes available. There is a free car Park and the pub is suitable for wheelchair users.”

“Cracking pub. You never get a bad pint thanks to Nick’s pride in serving a good pint. Love the friendly atmosphere. You get it that feeling as soon as you walk in. Wall paper music is great. Dog friendly too.”
