Website

This large, city centre JD Wetherspoon has a number of eating and drinking areas. The main bar can get busy, especially after work and at weekends. Food and drink are the usual Wetherspoon's fare but guest beers can be interesting. Decorated in a 1930s art deco style, wall decorations show a number of prints and photographs of well-known Birmingham people and landmarks. The pub is named after paintings by Edward Burne-Jones, who was born over the road. Accommodation is available upstairs.
