Drinks & Nightlife
Local man Keith runs this pub. Always a great selection of beers and if you like meat then the menu should appeal. It's also a smokehouse with great wings, ribs, brisket, mac n cheese etc. There is often live music down stairs or a DJ, and upstairs they host live bands, comedy and a regular reggae night.

Birmingham's museum is situated in a part of town that is currently a bit of a building site - despite this, is it definitely worth a visit.

It's a lovely quiet place with free entry, with some of the most amazing paintings and other artworks.
