Crabmill Inn — Restaurant in Bromsgrove

I visited with 3 friends one who lives locally. The landlord was welcoming but we made the mistake of visiting on a saturday afternoon when there was a Villa Game being televised. This is a sports pub so we thought we would break with tradition and stay and watch the game. The football fans arrived in their droves and the place was so packed no one could move anywhere. The main viewing screen was in the part of the bar where the toilets were so to get to the loo you had to walk through a crowd of beer swilling layabouts who danced and jumped up and down with full pints of lager spilling it and sloshing it over everyone. No one would let you walk past to go to the toilet or outside even if politely asked to excuse me. Crisps were £1 a packet and the beer was nearly £4 a pint. Wont go again as there are better pubs...

He had several opportunities to ask us how our meals were but didn't bother because he knew what the answer...

Took my young boys in and had a few drinks and was made to feel really welcome. Nice environment and the barman couldn’t have been...
