Hare & Hounds

“Superb small venue with an intimate atmosphere and great beers.”

Aaron★★★★

My son recently attended a gig at the Hare & Hounds in Birmingham and had a really positive experience. Before the show, we stopped in the separate pub area for a drink. The place had a great atmosphere — busy, lively, and with a genuinely good feel to it. Although he only had a drink, the service was friendly and efficient, and the beer was good quality. It set the tone nicely for the evening. Overall, a great spot for both live music and a pre-gig drink.

Great gig venue in King’s Heath (or rather Queen’s Heath - YouTube Joe Lycett, there’s a great video on this area). Stage is a good height so you can see the band from pretty much anywhere. Small bar at the back (or you can get drinks from the main pub downstairs). Acoustics are decent too, so worth checking out a band here.

David Livesey★★★★★

Great venue for smaller gigs. Pub that serves food and two gig rooms..The upstairs one was really intimate which meant I could get up close and personal to my favourite guitar player, Eric Steckel. No issues parking on the streets around the venue either.

Wonderful venue with lovely staff. Has 2 separate venues; we visited room 2 which is upstairs - an intimate space with a small stage. The downstairs bar is very charming and the service was impeccable. We tried a couple of sides from the menu before the gig (20% off food with a ticket at the time of writing!) which were very tasty. The mac n cheese hash brown was amazingly indulgent. Thoroughly recommend for a gig, a bite to eat or just a drink.
