I think what a lot of people/customers don't realise is that when you work behind the damn bar at the woodmans or anywhere else you get paid disgustingly. You pay peanuts you get monkeys. And you have to put up with abuse from idiots who think they are better than you, and say things like "I pay your wages". In a boozer that takes 1.5 million a year. Yeah, one customer makes a big difference.

Great place and the staff are so friendly. the glass collector especially as he stopped and had a chat with us and really made us feel at home. since hearing that he is going to leave i dont think me and my friends will be drinking there anymore as he was the only reason we went into the pub. we'll all miss you john dodd xxxx.

My little local, not cheap but since when is anywhere at the moment. Great place to sit with mates and general atmosphere is relaxed and is a good place to be at.

I think you'll find EMMA that there are at least 6 people that have worked at the woodmans for over 4 years and 2 that have worked there for going on 20 years so take your head out of your ass and realise that you dont pay there wages. how about if u never came to the woodies again we'll see just how many members of staff lose there jobs due to the miniscule amount of money we'd lose from ur obviously unwanted custom I can tell u right now, NOONE. As for the comment on the mystery guest your clearly the kind of person that would apply to be one to get a free drink and because you've got nothing better to do.

Good pub, great staff and a nice place to meet friends. Drinks are a bit pricy - but unless you are in the British Legion where are they cheap now a days !

The beer is a little over priced and some of the customers (as with most pubs) need to learn some basic manners, however, the Woodmans has a friendly drinking environment with efficient courteous staff. I can recommend this establishment if you prefer an environment that is not full of Solihull's scummy elements. However, this pub has more customers than any other in the area, therefore expect a good 10 -15 minute wait before being served on Friday nights. The Friday night staff endeavour to serve us as soon as possible, a task that is often hindered by dealing with the usual culprits of bar flies, people pushing in, and people blatantly ignoring the no smoking signs at the bar. By enlarge, a highly enjoyable night out, keep it up!

Surly, I think You'll find that it is the drinkers that make the place, and from what I can gather, the Woodmans goes through staff like there's no tomorrow, as people can't stand the atmosphere, so you should remember that next time you attack someone who merely made a comment you disagree with. You should also remember that if people don't like the attitude of some of the staff, (of which you are obviously a member) they won't come back, and you would be without your job. What, are you a bit gutted because you didn't get 100% on your mystery guest report? Shame, eh?

Very lively atmosphere with good facilities & beer garden.
Drinks don't come cheap though!

Had a few pints there between 1974 and 1978 when I lived on School Rd

Ted- I don't know who you think you are but I think you'll find it's the staff that make the pub as the drinkers wouldn't be in there without any staff. I presume you were waiting at the bar for two minutes before being served rather than having the world revolving solely around you. I think you need to be reminded that one moaning barfly drinking elsewhere is not likely to break a pub.
Up the Woodies!

Used to work there, great place.
Paul

Our local. Well worth a look any night of the week. Beers a bit steep for a boozer but great night out with friends.
Ben

Nice Pub! But should remember the drinkers make the pub not the staff!!
Ted

Good mix of age groups for a local. Good food and staff. Still one of the most 'normal' pubs in Solihull - a favourite.
Mike

Great pub with a great atmosphere.
Jo

Just been refurbished, and its really lovely. Foods out of this world and drinks are reasonably priced. great when you can sit outside in the sun!
