As the name suggests, The Good Pub Guide knows a thing or two about fine drinking establishments - and the publication features a host of Birmingham’s brilliant bars.
There are scores listed for so many reasons - but mainly because they serve some first class beer. Take a whirl through our gallery to see which Brummie pubs the guide ranks as ‘recommended’ and ‘worth a visit’.
Feel free to contact us with any of your recommendations too:
