About The Colmore

A lunch or evening at The Colmore is really about the beer, and Birmingham drinkers know it. The Thornbridge range is a fixture on tap, and the craft and cask selection runs deep enough that at least one visitor abandoned plans to go anywhere else and stayed the whole session. High-end stouts feature when the list is at its best. Pizza is on the menu if hunger strikes, though the regulars are here for the pints. The pool table gives the room its unhurried pub character, and with twelve mentions of the city-centre location, it clearly sits somewhere people find easy to land in after work or before wherever the night goes next.
