The Old Contemptibles

From high windows and ceilings to arched panels, you'll be comfortably transported back in time thanks to this charming pub. 

Visited by both Birmingham's young and mature, The Old Contemptibles has an air of pub chic inviting to nearly all ages ranges, with drinks tastings, live music and comedy nights. One of the other great things about the atmosphere in The Old Contemptibles is that it's made by the people that frequent it. The chat is on in this pub that lives for hearty conversations and even heartier laughs. Serving hearty cask ales and traditional pub grub, The Old Contemptibles remain with their roots.
