Black Country Plum Pig at the Waggon & Horses, Halesowen

This pub is traditional as things go. It’s a lovely bricked building on a traditional high street road corner. Inside, a plush lounge offers comfortable seating, and a small door offers a private room. As you turn the corner, a long bar dominates the next room with large windows that run alongside the high street. A long row of handpumps sits on top of this, and there’s a TV screen listing the beers available, while at the end lies a hot cupboard containing snacks. Be warned, if you’ve got your eye on something you’d better buy it quick before it gets snapped up by someone else. There’s a few high tables here for people to perch on but they have to hold tight as the stone floor slopes downward towards the windows. Beyond this is a smaller but more traditional lounge with clusters of tables that can be pushed together to accommodate large groups. It’s a great locals pub; although I’ve never met them as I’ve only had the chance to visit at lunchtime.
