The Witton Arms
458 Witton Road, Handsworth (B6 6SN).
The Bartons Arms
144 High Street, Aston (B6 4UP). Proper grand Victorian boozer.
The Yew Tree
Brookvale Road, Witton (B6 7AS).
Updated Sep 2026. Away-fan rules can change for big games, so check on the day.
Getting there
Witton station is about 5 minutes' walk, with trains from Birmingham New Street in around 10 minutes. Aston station is about 15 minutes' walk if Witton is packed.
Parking
Streets near the ground get busy on match days, so pre-book a space rather than hoping to find one.

Balti
Shababs, Ladypool Road. In the Balti Triangle in south Birmingham, the other side of the city from Villa Park, so better for tea after the game.
Birmingham’s own curry, cooked quick and served in the steel bowl it’s cooked in.
