  “Stopped by here evening of 27th August. The taĺler of the two barman advised they weren't taking cash as they hadn't had a delivery of coins. I had the correct change to pay the exact amount but waa forced to use card payment. If one was being skeptical then one might think that he didn't want to take cash so that he didn't have to correlate it at the end of shift - and therefore finish his shift quicker”

  “What a lovely little pub - came here for the first time last week for a writing meetup, so much character in the place (it feels like a fancy pirate ship, in the best way!). Really good drinks selection too. Haven’t had food yet but would like to try it. Impressed!”

  “You need to visit this boozer just for the decor and setting. Absolutely stunning. Craddock’s own beers are okay - their darker stuff is great. Normally a couple guest keg/cask too. Always a nice atmosphere in here as well.”

  “disappointing experience. The service was all over the place, and my drink wasn’t even made the way I ordered it. When I politely pointed this out, the barman—with his collection of piercings—seemed completely flustered and unsure how to handle the situation. It turned what should have been a simple fix into an awkward and frustrating interaction. Mistakes happen, but the overall service was far below what I’d expect. customer service needs a lot more work. with better staff training and a more confident approach to customers, it could be a much better experience. I won't be back”

  “So it was the first day of the new menu, all I can say is amazing. Large portions with a great selection friendly professional staff and a great atmosphere in the entire pub. I have to return for another visit as I couldn't try the dessert menu but that was because I was full. First class service as always thank you”

  “The GI has lovely atmosphere every time my colleagues and I pop in! We’ve had everything here— birthdays, Secret Santa, and more leaving dos than I can count—and it’s always a laugh. The place is super welcoming, full of friendly bar staff, and just feels like home as soon as you walk through the door. Proper little gem of a pub!”

  “We stumbled across this pub during our Easter weekend trip in Birmingham. The host was a lovely gentleman called Will who went out of his way to be courteous and helpful. The music and vibes of the pub was first class, and the beers on tap were even better! If you are in Birmingham, do not miss this little diamond tucked away in the great western arcade. Delightful!”

  “We came here a 'Burns night' celebration, my first visit and really like the place. Staff at the bar downstairs are very friendly and even let me taste 2 beers before making my selection. The event was put on by a third party however the room upstairs was great and enough room for everyone to sit comfortably and speak with friends. A great evening was enjoyed by everyone. Thank you”

  “Lovely looking place in the arcade. I like the concept of it and how the profits are donated to local charities. The beer was fantastic, although I was told a lot of the taps had nothing on, I still got something I liked. I did sense a little moodiness in the service but nothing that would stop me from returning.”

  “This pub is absolutely beautiful and perfectly in keeping with Birmingham's gorgeous arcades. Spacious, comfortable, with high ceilings and plenty of cosy nooks, and friendly and welcoming bar staff. Had a refreshing IPA while reading my book. A special place, I hope to come back.”
