Bristol Pear, Birmingham, Full Venue Hire

About Venue

Bristol Pear Birmingham is a lively, colourful pub and event venue on Bristol Road in Selly Oak, sitting right next to Selly Oak station and serving the student, local, and community crowd that makes this part of Birmingham such a social place to be.

The venue has a genuinely warm and unpretentious personality. Plenty of natural light pours in during the day, HD screens dot the walls for live sport, and there is a proper outdoor beer garden for warmer months alongside a smoking area. Inside, the layout is flexible enough to accommodate everything from a quiet weekday lunch to a full-on late-night event, with a late licence running until 1am on Fridays and Saturdays. The main bar carries real ales, a full cocktail menu, and a food offering that runs all day, with smash burgers, pizza, and a bottomless brunch option that has proven very popular.

For private events, Bristol Pear Birmingham offers two distinct hire options. The Avenue is a recently refurbished dedicated function room that seats up to 120 and has its own private bar, stage, and AV setup. The whole venue can also be taken over for larger occasions up to 370 guests. The in-house team look after everything from birthday parties, hen dos, and stag nights through to corporate events, meetings, and Christmas parties, and pre-booked food packages are available across all occasions.

Selly Oak station is less than 0.1 miles away, making it one of the most accessible pubs in this part of Birmingham. Bus stops are right on Bristol Road, and a pay and display car park is available at Selly Oak station 0.1 miles away. Children are welcome until 7pm, and the venue has full wheelchair access and an accessible toilet on-site
