Had a great time here over the weekend, really friendly place with lovely food ( try the faggots !), good selection of hand pull beers and loads of interesting bottles in the fridge, I'm working in Walsall for the next few months so I'm going to be a regular. Cheers !.

As we're members of camra we visit this pub regularly, the amount and quality of ales on sales is superb. But dont worry if your not an ale fan, the selection of other drinks is also huge.
We have eaten here several times and all i can say is the food is amazing, fantastic choice of black country classics such as faggots and peas and black pudding, but if thats not your taste, then there is a good choice of freshly prepared pub food such as fish and chips, lasagne and the pies are to die for!
Absolutely love it, wished i could walk to it from home, but then we'd probably be there everyday

Friday 14th July 17, My husband and I went out for a drink and a meal with my godson Kevin who lives in Walsall.
We parked the car and then My husband, Kevin and I walked down into Walsall town centre to go to ‘The Black Country Arms’, a city centre real ale pub.
The Black Country Arms is situated in a Georgian building was be-decked with flower baskets, which gave it a welcoming feel. The pub is situated over three floors with tables for dining and a wonderful real ale bar with over 40 types of real ales and ciders.
We all found a table and we looked at the menu, we then went to look at the bar, the range of ales was impressive and as I am not an ale drinker, I asked about flat ciders, and they had an impressive array.
We were served by Carla, who was a lovely bright and cheerful young lady, who took our food and drinks order.
The food when it arrived was piping hot, well presented and a HUGE portion. My husband had the Black Country faggots and peas served with creamy mash and rich gravy. My husband washed this down with two pints of ‘Pig On The Wall’ ale. I had the Black Country fish, chips and mushy peas (Whale and Chips) and I washed this lovely food down with two pints of ‘Furry Ferret’ apricot cider, which was so smooth and crisp and had a lovely taste.
Kevin did not have a meal, as he had eaten earlier before we came. Kevin had three pints of ‘BFG’ bitter. We spent over three hours talking and chatting and catching up on new and gossip.
If you want a good down to earth pub with friendly staff, good food and excellent bitters, ales and ciders then this is the place to be.

Good selection of real ales from around the country with friendly knowledgeable staff. Very nice atmosphere and the other customers were welcoming to newcomers as well. Always nice to be made welcome in a pub.

We are relatively new to our real ales, know what we like but ready to push our boundaries and the bar staff here are more than willing to help and guide.
Beautiful selection of real ales and a couple of ciders too and not to forget the cheese and onion cobs! 😊
Lovely garden to the side and rear, menu looks tasty and overall a great pub, lovely feel to a true established pub of Walsall, will definitely return!

We visit the Black Country Arms every week. Great choice of real ales, 10+ different ales any one time, great food and friendly staff. Would highly recommend if you like real ale and home cooked food. Children are welcome too so this always makes a nice couple of hours on a Saturday afternoon for us.

Friendly, well stocked real ale pub.
Arrived after a long late train journey. Welcoming knowledgeable bar staff and regulars.
16 hand pumps available, 3 regulars and rest guest ales, mostly midlands. Notice behind Bar said over 600 guest ales this year and I believe it.
Mini beer festival next week.
Only downside is it's a way up the high street opposite Asda and on way there 10pm on weekday night barely saw a soul outside, even fewer an hour later.

This not-so-secret, former Court House (and formerly Green Dragon)opposite ASDA,. is a real-ale gem of-a-pub but with great grub as well. In Walsall, a short steep uphill walk through "market area" is rewarded with a large, welcoming and friendly environment. Smiley and helpful staff serve a great range of ales, which you can sample before choosing. Whether you are alone or in a group, it is such a comfortable place to be, with lots of hidy-holes and spaces upstairs from which to choose..There's also an pretty little drinking/eating area outside
Monday,in fact, anyday B.C.A. makes a super meeting place.
My own fave food is a must try taste- called" BLACK PUDDING AND POTATO thingy on a bed of lettuce with an egg smiling on top.".....but you will discover your own !!
CHEERS B.C.A.
