I used to be a regular at (chequers) sorry Fieldhouse for many years and had some great nights there especially when England were playing. Will call in when i visit England in the summer and please put the glasses in the fridge before you pull the pint to keep it nice and cool.

Britcit2 obviously has not been to the shelly farm recently. The shelly farm is as busy as ever and you will struggle to get a seat on Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
without doubt the shelly is the best pub in Monkspath and i think britcit2 (world's stupidest name ever) should try the place before he writes false and unfounded rubbish on the internet

Like it. Great improvement over the old Chequers. My designated local! Just don't overshoot the turning and mistakenly end up in the Shelly Farm pub down the road...unless you like your pubs to have all the atmosphere of a morgue at 2am.

Great place!  Really nice for a chill especially when you haven't enough enthusiasm to cook a meal.  Quiz is well full as well, particularly seeing as you can include obscenities in your team name.  Not ken on the manager with curly hair and glasses, I think he has it in for anyone wearing anything to do with Solihull School...???  Undenied.  PS: The Red Lion (Knowle) Quiz steals your soul.

I have really enjoyed my times down the Fieldhouse (once Chequers) over the years. The new decor is a happy compromise between local boozer and smart winebar and works well. Watch the prices, though, you lot. They seem to be creeping up.

Any true Silhillian would do well to disregard Mark M & Arbor Essence. This is a really good local pub. The drink, food, barmaids and Sunday night quiz are all great. The "good old" Fieldhouse (and Chequers before that) did indeed serve cheap food and drink but only attracted Carling drinking, "pie and a fight" types anyway. Good riddance.

The Fieldhouse is a lovely place to go and have a drink and something to eat. Credit to Richard and Barbra and the rest of the staff, I always have an enjoyable time there!

Great pub, great staff, really nice place. Anyone who thinks it was better as the chequers, if the Fieldhouse is that bad, don't drink there, I'm sure there are some other pubs in Solihull??

Good place to go for a bite to eat and a few drinks. Over the years the prices
have risen somewhat.

Great pub always busy, unlike the old Fieldhouse, Mark M cant blame Ember for making their pub profitable! Old pub full of undesirables and bad atmosphere now friendly and inviting! FOOD GREAT.
Philip

I love it, nice friendly atmosphere and the bar staff and managers make you feel welcome. my complements to the chef, the food is delicious.
Kate

I only remember it as the Chequers. It is now really nice. Pleasant atmosphere, reasonable prices, no trouble at all. It is great how such a variety of people can enjoy it. Some lovely barmaids as well.
Adam

Can't agree with Mark M - it's sooooooo much better since it got a face lift and was refitted. Good food at very reasonable prices, and a nice place to go for a drink.
Mark Turner

My god, I hate this place now....muppets what have they done to it?
Abor Esence

Nice pub until good old Ember Inns murdered it for good.
Bring back old Fieldhouse with the cheap menu and cheap drinks!
Mark M

A Great now its been done up. The only problem is its so busy and you can't always get in! But a great pub.
Helen

A decent friendly pub, great atmosphere although quite pricey, but its our local so we love it..
