Hogshead

I’ve found the Hogshead pub on Station Road in Solihull to have been a consistently fantastic watering hole over the course of my degree, although admittedly my opinion has been biased by the fact that I can only remember visiting when it’s sunny, as they always open up the front doors to create a lovely summery atmosphere. Another influencing factor on my opinion is undoubtedly the dull, generic Whetherspoons right next door. Whereas the Wetherspoons seems to attract some less than savoury characters and presents quite a hostile vibe, the Hosghead is much more relaxed and welcoming, and a great little pub, albeit not ideally placed, half way between Solihull station and the main shopping area.

There is a good menu which is reasonably priced. The food us generally ok although food arrived cold once but was swapped very quickly without any fuss.
The beer selection is standard for a pub but there are often good special offers on, in particular on wine.
There is a quiz machine and live football shown on a Saturday.
