The Village Inn

Please bare in mind that my review is in reflection to my visit during Birmingham Pride 2026. The atmosphere was completely dead due to the fact that the entrance to this venue was not signposted well and most importantly that there was no live entertainment until past midnight. The venue itself is beautifully designed, well cooled with aircon and has fantastic bathroom facilities and wifi. The venue is too loud to competently order drinks. The bar staff seem disinterested at times, probably due to lack of patrons? They did however serve affordable and refreshing drinks. I can understand from other people's reviews about how the venue has no character anymore and attracts people out to cause trouble. My partner and I saw this reflected in the overly drunk people in the venue at 6pm throwing themselves around on the dancefloor and giving people funny looks that tried to get past. Dare I say they were the mean gays / drama queens type.

Was walking past and saw toyota estima taxi drivers making hurtful and unacceptable comments to people going in and out this place. No one was helping the poor party goers Strangely some party goers were going up to one of the white toyota estima taxi parked up but not getting in and its window kept going down followed by a quick handshake and then the taxis window went back up My goodness, we are in England, Not Dadyal in Kashmir!!!

The customers here aren't out for a good night or to have fun clubbing. Most of them seem to come just looking for trouble and starting fights over the smallest things. The whole place gets way too packed which makes everything feel tense and then you’ve got people randomly throwing drinks at each other.The bar staff are proper rude and don’t seem to care at all. On top of that you’ll find drug stuff being used openly in the toilets which just makes the whole vibe feel grim and unsafe.If you want a decent night out, give this one a miss. It’s not worth the hassle or the risk of getting caught up in the aggro. Wouldn’t go back ever.
