In September 2024, it was noted that Carlsberg "Fresh Ale" Wainwright and Hobgoblin keg beers were being served through handpumps.

The pub is run by the small pubco King Henry's Taverns. The interior is nicely refurbished with two rooms. On the left is a large carpeted bar with sports TV. On the right is a lounge, extended to dining areas down steps. At the back is a delightful patio and sunken garden with big trees, rockeries and a fish-pond, which is fed from a waterfall under a footbridge. A modern family-dining extension rear-right has panoramic windows overlooking the pond. Food all day from an extensive menu, and many of the meals are keenly priced.

Misleading Dispense

This venue has been flagged by CAMRA volunteers as using a misleading dispense method to serve beer.

This is a 'Fresh Ale' - a keg beer served through a cask handpump. Find out more here Handpump Hijack.

If in doubt, we recommend that you Ask if it's Cask before making a purchase.

Historic Interest

The Cedars was built in the 1830s in classical style as an upper-class private house. The novelist E Phillips Openheim lived here; a later resident was a director of Liberty Shoes. It became a hotel in 1937-1938 and the two side wings were added at this time. It was run by the Birmingham brewery Ansells for some years.
