    ...and the latest prize for worthless reviews goes to...

    http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/68938/

    Never been there, not old enough to go there but deemed worthy of a 10/10. Thank heavens we have transparent ratings on here so we can see these efforts for what they are!

    Should this place even be on this site - check out their website!

    Brilliant - actually did laugh out loud when I read that 'review'. Surely worth preserving on here for posterity before it is rightly deleted?

    The First Bar I Shall Be Going To When I Turn 18! Got The Same Name Fogg!!!!
    And I hope they didn't pay over the odds (ie anything at all) to whoever designed that website. It is truly awful, riddled with spelling mistakes ("starters, main, salads and deserts", "a dish mathing your exact requirements", etc) and looks like they gave up altogether about halfway through. I see they are inviting reservations to watch World Cup matches there, too, which shows how busy they must be, if it is necessary to book nearly 4 years in advance.

    Never likely to find myself in Birmingham, but looks like somewhere I would automatically avoid

    The bar area looks awful to me, but no doubt young Miss Fogg will love it

    Probably already telling pals about the 'VIP' area (see layout map, 'how it works') for the big day...

    That one will be blameable on Facebook integration, June is going to have just assumed this is like Facebook and that is aimed at her friends. Still amusing though.

    Another cracker of a first & only post, not been there sense [sic] 1999, but gives 10/10 anyway

    http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/4494/

    Pub is cask marque, so may well be a great pub

    I actually quite like that as a review, could do with a little more information, but has got some of the essential points across. Only key point is I think she should have left it unrated.

    It would be nice to come up with some suggestions of how to review your own pub - then again I hope one day we can let them get a bit of blurb in the address box which should remove the need for that.

    the other 2 reviews are a waste of space one rates the pub 1/10 but says "I don't intend to visit "
    "Do I know where hell is? hell is in hello"
