CITY CENTRE<br />
Post Office Vaults<br />
Blink and you’ll miss the Post Office Vaults,<br />
especially if you approach the entrance<br />
to the bar that is on Birmingham’s main<br />
pedestrianised shopping street, New Street.<br />
It’s little more than a doorway, but upon<br />
entering and descending the stairs, you’ll find<br />
a little oasis of good beer in a cosy and dimlylit<br />
cellar bar. This independent pub prides<br />
itself on being one of the best offerings of<br />
international beer in the city – outside of its<br />
eight real ales from UK brewers – it has an<br />
inexhaustible collection of bottled beers from<br />
as far and wide as Belgium, Germany, France,<br />
Norway, the Netherlands and the USA.<br />
Another nice touch of this pub is that, while<br />
it doesn’t serve food, you can bring your own<br />
and they will provide cutlery and plates. The<br />
bar opened in 2011 and has an air of history<br />
about it that makes it a very welcoming place<br />
to raise a glass.
