The Bottle of Sack in Birmingham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Refused entry as the lettering on my ID was apparently “not raised enough”, perhaps if the bouncers removed their gloves they’d be able to feel that the lettering is in fact raised. Bouncers then proceeded to swear at my girlfriend and make us feel incredibly uncomfortable, meanwhile they allow young girls to enter with a passing glance. Would not recommend to anyone looking for a warm or welcoming atmosphere!

The only time I've been turned away from a pub because the dishwasher was broken,🤣 Bouncers looked like terrified school kids.

A lot of very young kids wandering around quite pissed at 9:30pm ,....... That's a tad off putting

Cheapest drinks for miles around. Good selection of beers and clean toilets

Absolutely disgusted 3 times I've ordered steak medium well 3 times its come out blue or raw they need to learn to cook never eating here again its not just the steak the can't get right either nit the only person to complain

Awful to try and get a drink waited 15 mins food wasn't great typical tables with plates still on them

The decor was outstanding. Served by a young lady called Willow, great attitude and service with a smile and a chat. We ate upstairs on the balcony that looked over the bar downstairs. The wall art is cheeky and clever at the same time. The BBQ chicken melt was filling, and the portion of salad large with a tasty dressing dip. After food, we had drinks outside, which was different from any other Wetherspoons I have been in. Toilets were clean with soap in all and fresh smelling. A small carpark to the rear, possibly 5 spaces. Loved the Bottle of Sack, we will return.

Ordered some shots someone was too drunk around me and I got my shots taken off me after I had paid and been promised a refund. Haven't got anything...

Closed the bar 10 mins early. Called last orders at 23:45, went up for a a half and was told “we’ve closed the bar, we called last orders at 23:30 and closed the bar at 23:45” I know this is rubbish as I looked at my phone when they rang the bell. Also why advertise that your open til 00:00 if your not? I was meeting a mate tonight but my local spoons stays open til 00:00 no matter how little customers are in as they advertise that they are open till 00:00. Let yourselves down here

Last 3 breakfasts not as good as normal

Stopped the night in Sutton Coldfield after a gig at The NEC and decided to nip across to The Bottle Of Sack for a traditional breakfast. As you do. It's what Wetherspoons was put on the planet for. The Bottle is named safter a quote from some bloke called Billy Shakespeare. He was very famous for an almost endless stream of plays that countless 14-16 year old children would sigh at the mere mention of when studying for English exams. I think it's what Shaky would have wanted. Anyhoo, the traditional breakfasts were eerily similar to the actual pub. Not that great, but did the job. Like any other 'Spoons, the staff were OK, the pub was adequate, though improvements in cleanliness were required, particularly in the toilets, which were a heady mix almost empty toilet roll holders and soaking wet floors. Average, but passable.

Great place for a drink and meet up not over priced, food basic but good enough 😉

Didn't have food so couldn't comment service and staff great beer nice definitely go again but for food and drink

A nice place easy for the taxis

Our go to pub for a cheap lunchtime meal.

Good place for a cheap drink in Sutton. Occasionally gets overrun by youths but overall a decent vibe and I keep going back so must be doing something right 👍

The Bottle of Sack in Sutton Coldfield offers a superb dining experience. The ambiance is a bit intense at times due to some inebriated individuals that like to go over the limit, but they accompany with great quality meals. Their menu features a delightful array of dishes, all prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I particularly enjoyed their perfectly cooked steak and the rich, flavorful sauces that accompanied it. The drink selection is impressive, with a great variety of wines and craft beers.

Had a lovely lunch with my bestie

The usual Wetherspoons bonus of cheap drinks and a great range of beers. Nicely furnished pub with a good outdoor area.

3 for £14.93 nachos, bbq chicken pizza and chicken strips. You get good value definitely. Only problem is the pizza is more of a pitta bread than pizza dough. Avoid the mens toilets at all costs they stink of stale piss. I had to hold my breath when using them it was that disgusting.

Tried the app & ordered from our table rather than face the huge queue often experienced at a Spoons establishment. Really easy to navigate app & fastest service I've ever recieved. Well done spoons. Ordered chicken bites & a pizza, both with a pint, good Guiness pour. Food was good, can't go wrong with their pizza. The young lady on the floor was really polite helpful and extremely hard working, didn't catch her name but she reseated us from outside to in. She literally didn't stop fair play to her, seems like a real asset. I'll update if I find out her name.

Good basic Wetherspoons reasonably priced

If I could give no stars I would. I've now recieved food poisoning twice from eating here...most recently yesterday as it being the only thing I had eaten before getting poorly. Now I won't be able to go on holiday because I'm ill.

so cold outside but soon warmed up in this place with hot drinks hot food and hot desserts... lovely

Shopping in Sutton, went in for a drink ended up having lunch (and another drink). Cheapest for drinks and food.

3 of us went for lunch. Instead of lemonade, my daughter was given soda water which was replaced later. The ale i had chosen had run out. My daughters desert had a caramel sauce added as the chocolate sauce had run out, she wasn't asked if that was an acceptable replacement. Unfortunately she does not like the caramel sauce so a replacement was given without any sauce. The major complaint would be about a very loud group of middle aged women, where every other word was the 'F-Bomb', On a outdoor terrace on a Saturday afternoon, where there were many families with young children, this is not acceptable & i felt that a member of staff should have asked them to tone down their bad language.

Food was very quick and tasted very fresh. Service at bar and food delivery both excellent

Didn't eat place was busy good atmosphere and friendly staff

Went for an early tea ordered the classic jalfrezi curry which should come with rice naan and poppadoms food arrived only curry and chips sent it back came back with no rice a naan and 2 poppadoms which were drenched in oil and still with chips cant blame the waitress but as for the staff behind the bar who were obviously not interested in customer service and the so called chef it amounted to the worst pub meal experience I have ever had and this doesn't include my wifes meal which wasn't quite as bad but still not good we wont be going back.

The worst meal I have ever had...poppadums were dripping with grease!!! Disgusting

Good selection of beers situated on island in sutton coldfield reasonable prices

Decent Weatherspoons. No frills but not what I'm here for. Had a good chat without loud music

Yes, it's cheap. we all know that. But there are not many places you can get refillable coffee for under £2.00. You must try the smashed avocado on a muffin it's absolutely delicious 😋.

I went to a friend's 60th birthday drink and it was a perfect place to hold it,lovely atmosphere and lovely staff too.

Great spoons in an easy to reach location

One of the best weatherspoons I've ever visited. Bar staff friendly and fun. The food is always very nice and service top class

Nice pub and a good mix of ages tables cleared and cleaned very quickly

Nice big pub , good atmosphere, cheap drinks . Cannot moan . Had a good time .

Staff were nice and drinks were good standard pricing. The place looks tired though.

Cheap pints, lots of space and seating, great outdoor area for warmer evenings.

Staff are friendly, food was standard, but the place needs a deep clean and refurb. Feels like a tired establishment.

Comfortable and popular especially for meals.

Nice place , good food and atmosphere. Went for breakfast!

Cheap & fast. Food wasn't posh, but just what we wanted & expected. The place was rammed, but they still managed to bring out food out in about 10 minutes. Great value.

A fairly decent Spoon's, food was nice and a short walk away from the train station.

Spoons , you know what you're going to get . Reasonable food at a good price . A pint of beer under £2 , what a bargain 👌

Love this place, great value with food and drink

Food came quickly but I had to send my steak and kidney pudding back as it had obviously been over microwaved. However the replacement was excellent. The pub itself needs a refurb. Tables and chairs are old and it shows.

Ok. Instead of making an insta dedicated to spoons I'm leaving reviews. Probably one of the first spoons I went to before I had this whole spoons dedication. Great for a local spoons. Has a great outside to sit during the summer. good inside for winter. could be hotter but it's all glass extension makes sense to why it isn't. It could play some music of an evening but is alright for what it is. I rate this average of a spoons scale.

Need more staff working the bar when busy..apart from that nice indeed..but it is sutton coldfield

Great place, Great atmosphere, Great polite staff. Food and beers top class.

Very slow service. Food not very warm. I've been to various JD Werherspoon's for food in many different areas and this one in Sutton Coldfield is by far the worst one. I definitely will not be returning.

Well worth a visit if in the area

Busy place but fresh hot food and good service with cheerfull staff.

Both breakfast came out near cold .They was replaced with new meals and red hot plates

The food is usually tasty here but always has problems with the temperature of the food. I always have fish and chips but the curry sauce or the chips are so cold. It's a shame as the food is tasty. Alot of the time the staff are run off their feet and doesn't always seem enough running staff so maybe thats why food is cold.

Decent food, good atmosphere. Friendly service.

Door staff more interested in smoking there vapes outside the entrance than seeing how drunk gangs of lads were inside the bar! Drunk patrons, falling into other members of the public, obnoxious behaviour and language being used and no one about to say or do anything about it!

Didn't let us in even though we has citizen ID rather than a licence due to disability. Terrible bouncers!!!

Had a pint in there at lunch time very popular place especially with the senior set, no wonder as they had coffee, hot chocolate etc at £1.50 bottomless what a deal wow. Definitely go there again when in the area. Well worth a visit.

Was ok shame both hot drinks machines had no hot chocolate

Nice food and fast service. Visit here regular. Thankyou staff 👍

One of the nicer ‘spoons. Always busy, yet you never have to wait long for service.

Adequate but too far cool English breakfast Decent drinks selection. Good service. Building & furnishings getting a bit tired

It is what it is a weatherspones with great value food and drinks provide from 08:00 hrs with fast service. A good pit stop.

A solid spoons, staff are great.

Nice atmosphere and quick service. Black pudding burned... Last visit old black boned chicken wings over fried... Need improvement on food quality.

A 3 star rating,cos no beer choice at all,in fact had 2 clips of Same Simkiss Honey beer on.enjoyed the Coffee instead.

Great xxx the food was lovely it was Wednesday xx best it been xx 😘 and friendly xx

Lovely and spacious good quality of food for price and free refels on hot drink s

Good drink always value for money

Only Wetherspoons can do this. Not rip you off.

Terrific service. Quick, helpful staff. I ordered a beer on the app that wasn't in stock; the server brought over all the canned beer they had in stock so I could choose a replacement.

Nice place,clean toilets. Quick table service, nice food

On the upper side of average for a Spoons but the door team of a weekend can be entirely unwelcoming.

Bouncer was great, friendly and really helpful with my elderly father

It's a good place to let you enjoy the meal and drinking.

As typical Wetherspoon - it has good prices. Food is served quickly and it's nice. Great choice of beer. Nice beer garden.

As Wetherspoons go, this is a pretty good one. Large inside and outside area and very reasonable prices.

Ordered a pint of ale and was handed the most insipid looking drink. Clearly the stagnant beer left in the line which I refused. The boneless chicken was short of coleslaw and I was told that the chain no longer offers dressing with salad which is untrue. Feels badly run

As you'd expect from spoons, great prices for food and drink, and quick service

Nice meal nice beer service was brilliant

Cheap drinks, good atmosphere and a large outdoor area for when the weather is nice!

Lovely place with outdoor seating. Service to your table if required. Friendly staff.

Excellent prices. Way cleaner than most Witherspoon pubs. Food is basic but good portions. Staff have always been friendly & prompt... A pint & double whiskey for less than £6 is very good value for money 💰

For deaf group for chat for friends and family and enjoy the food and drink and to have fun and a lot different things

Came on away trip with Blackpool. Good beer Good food friendly staff and nice regulars. Top notch. Thanks

Being visiting this Wetherspoons every day for breakfasts in the January sale. Absolutely incredible deal for the breakfast muffin ( bacon, sausage egg and cheese ) and unlimited hot drinks for £1.99 ! Went to a recently opened artisan bakery nearby that charged £4 for a slice of bread and jam 😂😂

We have eaten breakfast at many Wetherspoons at various locations and have generally been happy, value for money. Today I felt there was something missing, the food arrived but looked quite 'sad' on the plate to be honest. Needs attention I think. Odd behaviour by the male staff - felt like we were just a nuisance. We asked for 2 glasses of water, didn't arrive, asked again, and the staff shouted across the room to ask where the water was. It eventually arrived. I asked for a side plate to put my toast and butter on, never arrived, I couldn't be bothered to ask again. Clearly the staff were hassled as there was not enough of them to serve the customers, I ask who's fault is that? I know things are not normal currently but even so, we are the customers and are paying for the food and the service. Maybe it was an off day ....

Visited Wetherspoon every Saturday Have a breakfast and it was cold again But this time they bought the same breakfast back bacon was nuked egg was the same just disgusting my partners sausage was cold again just disgusting

I recently went to Wetherspoons with my friends for some lunch and found the staff were rude, considering we are paying customers. the security guard spoke aggressively to us and escorted to the incorrect table which he then proceeded to say was our fault. I was extremely annoyed by this as none of the staff were very receptive and all seemed to lack lustre in their customer service

Good breakfast as always, we had two large breakfasts with a cold and hot drink, good service however took a while for drinks to come out.

I do love a spoons I can’t lie but my friend was disappointed when there was “trees” in her cheesy garlic bread, I didn’t mind and tried to explain it was rosemary or something. Great place for drinking and great atmosphere. Onion rings are yum. Great value for money aswell.

I find it incredible that such a large Wetherspoon's within a prominent location in this town more often than not is short staffed.The Bishop Vesey approximately 1.5 miles away is smaller than this one and at times has up to six staff behind the bar. I have never seen more than four serving behind the bar here, but more often than not, there's two serving. Today there was one!The staff work hard here, probably because it's always understaffed!I'm sure the business would benefit from having more staff even if they are apprentices

Male staff appear to find customers a distraction rather than offering a service, this sort of behaviour is not good and needs nipping in the bud

Just visited the bottle of sack. Its my local and frequent it often as it offers good prices on food and drink. I went in this evening to try the Burns night specials. Unfortunately I hate Swede so asked the bar staff if I could have peas instead.i was told that I couldnt as it wasnt part of the deal. I noticed that the Burns guest ale was offered and assumed this was part of the drink included option. Again I was told that it wasnt part of the deal.the food arrived and the potatoes were very dry and the haggis was burnt and hard. I ate what I could never the less. I went to the bar for a drink afterwards to be served by a member of staff who until I walked to the bar had his hands down his pants "scratching" himself. Lovely hygiene I dont think! Bit reluctant to eat there again

You usually know what you get in a Wetherspoons pub. This was as predictable. Busy, cheap drinks, understaffed and slightly untidy. Can't fault the employees though. All polite and very overworked.

This is a Sutton Coldfield town centre pub and is typical of the Wetherspoons brand. It can get very busy at lunch time, but for the area it is quite cheap. They always have a good selection of Real Ales, and accept the CAMRA 50p off a pint vouchers. It has the normal low cost menu sold by this chain. High chairs are available for small children. It has free WiFi via The Cloud. All hot beverages are dispensed from a machine, but are "bottomless". You only pay once and can refill as many times as you like. Apart from the disabled and nappy change toilet, the main ones are up some steep stairs. There is a large area outside for smokers, with a separate part that is smoke free.

I used the Wetherspoon app to order a vegetarian breakfast and unlimited coffee for a fiver. It was the manager who brought the cup over, probably not because the older clientele don't use the app, but because the managers here have to graft because it's often understaffed.I asked for a takeaway cup as well and he duly obliged. The food was all good, although no check backs.Not as busy as usual in here probably down to the cold and wet weather.

Was back in Sutton and met up with friends,beer good and pub not too busy because it was a Monday evening,
