The iconic venue is Birmingham’s oldest non-secular building, and has fought off attacks during the First Civil War from Prince Rupert’s forces - it’s the only structure still standing after the Battle of Birmingham at Camp Hill in 1643. Additionally, the pub has been host to royalty, with Queen Elizabeth I staying there on her way home from Kenilworth Castle in 1575. The pub prides itself on celebrating its heritage, with many parts of the original building, including its black & white timber frame, still standing to this day.

657 years later, The Old Crown is celebrated as one of Birmingham’s best pubs, with two beer gardens and hundreds of events all year round, including #DigbethStPats celebrations and their annual Summer Programme. This year, the pub was crowned as one of the finalists in The Great British Pub Awards for ’Best Pub Garden’, the winner will be announced just days before this year's birthday celebrations.
