The Wheatsheaf is a friendly, open-plan community local at 4 Birmingham Road in Walsall, West Midlands (WS1 2NA) — trading on this site since 1801, once held by historic brewers Allsopp's and Ansells, briefly the Flock & Firkin in the 1990s, and restored in 2007. It serves four real ales (including two changing guests from local brewers) and runs live music most weekends, featuring blues, rock, covers and tribute acts, with a Thursday steak night and a beer terrace out back. A warm, dog-friendly grassroots room that books originals and covers; note the true town is Walsall, not central Birmingham.
