About The Old Royal

A proper Birmingham pub that manages to be modern and traditional at once, with a kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating for the days when everyone needs air. The rooms are clean throughout — the toilets get singled out — and the music stays low enough that you're not shouting over a toddler. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone's melting down: the fish and chips gets named again and again, the mixed grill arrives as a genuinely generous plateful, and the 2-for-£10.95 lunch deal and 2-for-1 pizzas keep a family bill sensible. The staff are warm and check back on you. Worth knowing: there's a quieter lounge upstairs if downstairs feels busy, groups can get a bit rowdy at the bar by late morning, and there's no real ale — lagers only.
