The Old Joint Stock Pub & Theatre, Birmingham

We visited here for dinner in the pub before seeing a show in the theatre. It was a busy Saturday night and the place was packed. It was loud but with a good atmosphere and the service was very efficient and friendly. There is a great selection on the food menu. They also catered brilliantly for my sister's complex dietary restrictions (no gluten, dairy, oils, garlic, onion or seasonings - everything plain). She contacted them in advance and received a very positive response saying they would be able to cater for her. They followed all of her requests and she received a meal that she was able to eat in full. There was no fuss, it was well presented and everything was kept plain as requested. I enjoyed the chicken pie with triple cooked chips, which was very tasty. We didn't have time for dessert but if I come again I definitely want to try the scones with clotted cream. We also enjoyed the show upstairs. Such a quirky, fun venue with kind, attentive staff. Thank you!

The architecture here is incredible! A very lovely place. Good selection of drinks and friendly staff. Gluten free beer available!
