Thirsty? ... Hungry? ... In Harbourne? 
... then this is the place for you
The service is friendly and timely, they have plenty of Ales on and the food is really tasty
You pay for the food mind, but "what the hey"... i say
Give it go

Beer! + Garden!
Do it... Do it... ... Do It!
This is a spacious pub, really good bar service, real ales and a huge beer garden
Any fan of the summer in general would come here for a drink of an evening

Review of The Actress & Bishop

Ain't half bad
This pub is pretty nice, it's a good location - it's not as far from the centre as you'd think
It was a nice atmosphere, pretty friendly and reasonably priced
Give it a go

Review of The Jamhouse

Jools in the Jool...ery quarter
... you see... cos the the jewelery quarter... and Jools Holland's bar... get it?
This is a fantastic bar for a night out, the location and and entry cost keeps the riff raff out - so you can have a very pleasant night out
The service is friendly, theres live music and i'm told the foods good as well
If you want to get away from Broad Street - you'd be making a good choice

Review of Mash House

Mmmmmm
Here you will find very tasty proper food and friendly service in a nice location
Its all pick and mix, which can be a bit overwhelming, but don't fret... you can't go far wrong with meat, mash and gravy
Well worth a go

Review of Cafe Lazeez

Clean Curry!
This place looks like a brothel when you walk in, it is full of gold trimmings and nasty plastic beads!
But when you tuck into the food... A-MAZE-ZING!
There isn't the usual stodgy greasy texture of curry with a solid brick of rice - Just good clean tasty food
Give it a go

Review of The Old Joint Stock

Echo....
This place is stunning, you walk in and immediately think... "i can't afford it here"... But you can!
They serve real ales and at reasonable prices
And you know its not a weatherspoons cos there is far too much space not being used above your head! It is is an old theatre and has a great atmosphere

Review of Bar Estilo

A Great Steak!
This is a great restaurant, definately worth a travel up to half an hour, any longer and you probably have something just as good, closer by
I have been several times and have never had a problem with the service or food.
Give it a go, you won't be disappointed

Review of Tin Tin Cantonese Restaurant
01 May 08, 14:27
Pretty good that
Everytime i have eaten here, i haven't been disapointed
The service is polite, there is plenty of room and the food tastes good
I heard they did takeaway lunchs as well, but i never got round to it... MSGs aren't a good idea for lunch generally

Review of Made In Gloucestershire

Get Smiles From Gifts
This shop is fantastic!
As someone who moved to the area and was faced with another christmas round of gifts... i discovered anything that says it was made in a different county to where the gift reciever is... pretty much a winner!
The only problem, it just doesn't charm Gloucestonians, so... maybe a corner with stuff made somewhere else might get a fifth star

This is a nice pub where you'll find all the pub-like things you'd expect - done very well!
Plenty of room, a garden, drink, food, and friendly service...
... what? are you still reading this?
Why aren't you on your way there now?

Review of Bakers Arms Inn

Sunday Jaunt
Nice pub, everthing you would expect of one; drinks, food and garden in a sleepy village
Only a short walk downhill from the pub and you'll find a beach and nice views over the river Stour
Worth a look

Review of Isaacs the Bar on the Waterfront
30 Apr 08, 18:14
Continental Drinks
If you want to escape the british way of drinking, you can find a continental watering hole on the docks
This is recomended in the summer, get a cool drink, sit outside and enjoy the clean air and funny looking boat people
Definately worth it

Review of Figure Of Eight

Beer Garden In The City
This is a fairly standard city pub when you walk in, everything is well priced and a little shabby... untill you get into the garden!
In the height of summer, you would be excused in forgetting your in a city... theres plenty of green and its away from the stale air of the city
Not so good if you don't like pollen

Review of Butt & Oyster
30 Apr 08, 13:28
It's a pub thing!
The Butt & Oyster is what i think of as a proper pub
You can enjoy a quiet pint with friends, get a slap up dinner with the folks or even master dominos!
If you decide to go here, you'll of made a good choice

Appently... open on other days!
Everything you would expect from a TGIs, lovely food – I can’t vouch for the cocktails as I am not a big cocktail fan - good times had all round

Handy Food Shop
Very handy little store, being open till 11pm an’ all. However, the thing that has left me a bit sour is that they abruptly stopped selling Tarramasalata :( apologies if i can't spell
