The Steak Pie’s Soak-ay
Many have
guessed at why The Soak has acquired its name, but right in the heart of Selly
Oak (S. Oak...Soak...) it certainly provides a nice friendly place to meet
friends and have a pie. I went for the classic option – Steak pie. As you can
see from the photo, it came with mash, peas and a gravy boat. The mash was not
too appetising it had to be said, but the pie was certainly a whole lot better.
The pastry was golden and not too thick, and the meat and gravy was pretty
decent. It was odd being given a half-slice of pie, as it did make me wonder
who had taken the other half, but it was a decent enough pie. Nothing to write
home about, but certainly okay.

The Soak, Bristol Road, Birmingham (B29 6AF)
