The Old Bulls Head

You'll find yourself in Lower Gornal, that part of Dudley where actual locals drink, not tourists. The Old Bulls Head sits on Redhall Road like it's been there for centuries—because it probably has—and it's got that comfortable, worn-in feel of a pub that doesn't need to try too hard. The kind of place where regulars have their seats and everyone knows what everyone else is drinking. Real ales are clearly their thing, and the crowd's here for proper boozer chat, not gastropub posing. It's the sort of evening spot where you lose track of time between rounds.
