Given the fact that, despite my rapidly advancing years, a lot of my humour is still very schoolboyish it is hardly a surprise that I always refer to this pub as The Ladyboy.
The Ladyboy (oops sorry) I mean The Ladybridge is a pub / restaurant that is part of the site of the neighbouring Premier Inn. It is a ski jump away from Tamworth's Snow Dome and, as Tamworth is full of them, it is no surprise that it is located virtually on a roundabout - or island as us Brummies call them.
It was mid Saturday afternoon when we visited, the pub is split into two, the bar and the restaurant and both rooms were full. It is a popular place for parents to bring their children but don't let that put you off as there were a couple of real ales on offer so I thought I'd give rugby inspired Marston's Sweet Chariot a try (get it?!!).
We sat near the window though don't expect much of a view unless you like watching cars queuing to get into a shopping centre car park.
The pub itself isn't anything to get excited about, it is functional and soulless and certainly not a place that you chose to go to for a few pints. Maybe I am doing the place a bit of a disservice (I was on a bit of a downer as I'd just found out that Blues were losing) but there were no complaints from Shelley when I suggested we move on.
The only plus point from our visit was the inspiration we got from looking at the tiles when we visited the loo !!
