Very friendly staff.Beer was great.Thing that let it down was that the place needed a right good wash.We sat next to a tiled wall and the tiles were really dirty. Would just take a bit of attention and this is something that could be fixed easy enough.

Net old friends at the Shakespeare two if us had a sandwich which came with fries or chips and a small drink for £8. Sandwich was ok but not the freshest bread. Nice filling though. Staff all ok but not the friendliest young girl behind the bar. Good vibe and drinks ok would use again for meet up but skip the sandwich!Ladies toilets upstairs which is a pain though

Overpriced food. It was busy, but we didn't even get any cutlery! Food just plonked on the table with no airs and Grace's. For the price, it needed a lot more care overall, especially for the cooking and delivery.Would probably be a nice place to go for just a drink with friends.Bar staff were nice and cheerful.

I booked an after Nutcracker matinee meal at The Shakespeare Inn, 2 mins from New Street Station but the Uber driver taking us from The Hippodrome Theatre, took us to the 'wrong' Shakespeare Inn near Paradise Circus. However the two young women serving were very welcoming and helpful explaining both pubs were the same company, so because I have mobility disabilities we decided to stay and eat where we were. The staff were very attentive and the food arrived quickly, piping hot and was excellent. Everywhere looked clean and welcoming.

Was fairly quiet when we went in at lunch time which for us was nice. Ordered some food, a burger meal and chicken n avocado sandwich, was expecting usual pub food standard but this was much better than expected. Burger was a double and was a very good size and cooked well, chips were great , sandwich was fresh and nice. Good staff and good service, food for me was excellent and well worth the money.

Stopped in a couple of weeks ago whilst waiting for my train home.. couple of Carling and a great Fish and Chips, portion looked more like a Whale!.. will definitely stop in again when I’m next in Birmingham.Staff were friendly, served by a girl called Emily according to my receipt.

I was in there with three old friends last night. I didn't eat this time...but have in the past and always enjoyable. Just beers last night...and the staff were super friendly. The shorter blonde went above and beyond pouring our Guinnesses.We shall be back!

Lovely looking place on the inside.Experience ruined by a power tripping bouncer. Didn't even get the chance to have a sip of the pint I bought.I tried to go outside for a cigarette with my pint; When I walked past the place a few hours earlier I had seen a few groups of people out there with their drinks so thought it was OK. My mistake, as this was not in fact allowed, understandable. I explain to the bouncer what I had seen earlier to cause my misunderstanding. He takes this as an immediate challenge to his integrity; calling me a drunk (the pint I was about to drink was my second drink after 2-3 hours so that simply was not the case) so that he has a reason to remove me.I had no issue with leaving my drink inside. I did not appreciate the confrontation from the bouncer simply for telling him what I had seen with my own eyes.
