Pigeons Parlour

Reviewed By JnKB

Been here several times and will certainly return. Fabulous little tea room, done out in forties style, chockablock full of old photos and fascinating memorabilia. The staff are wonderful, very friendly and attentive, and the food is delicious. Greeted by a pianist playing old sings when we arrived, which was a lovely additional treat. Thoroughly recommend!

Joe Joe Jims

Come and enjoy the Joe Joe Jim’s experience; take a drink from our carefully selected beers, wines and spirits selection, watch a band or comedy night, play a wide range of retro games – from ‘penny pushers’ to Sega Rally … then add a sprinkle of quirk and rustic chic.

Love this place so much. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. They will always stop for a chat and know how to look after people. Menu is burgers and pizza, which is just perfect. Great atmosphere, fab bands and tunes! This is our go to place when we’re out because you always feel so looked after.

Bar Ikigai

Independent cocktail bar in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter with a focus on seasonal Japanese ingredients, minimalist design and a chilled atmosphere.

Reviewed By ShelleyR772 - Brierley Hill, United Kingdom

Having lost the amazing 18/81 back in February we were on the lookout for another purveyor of cocktail magic. We found it! Amazing and innovative flavours in simply presented strong cocktails - as they should be! Japanese influenced and delicious (If you want fruity “fun” colourful cocktails full of Ice, sparklers, umbrellas and little alcohol, you’ll need to find somewhere else) Having visited the location before when it’s previous tenants (Vanguard) were there, I have to say the decor and ambience is even better. It feels bigger and more sophisticated. A beautiful place to be. I was impressed that the staff explained the cocktails like in a good restaurant. That’s what I’d expect from a high end cocktail bar. Lovely staff too. Thanks for a lovely evening Ikigai. Stay strong over lockdown 2.0 because we will be back.

By chance passing with my son and saw the majestic cone furnace appearing along the road. This led to our free entry visit and free parking, to this council run amenity, museum and glass shop. Although small it had a quietly appealing facet. Unfortunately due to the recent storms entry to the only completely surging glass cone in the UK was not permitted. Apparently immediate safety check and work needs to be carried out. However we did visit the other parts of the small site. Especially Carl working in the glass shop, he was working on some engraving of glassware which in itself was worth the visit. The titanic glassware was interesting, ordered but because of a railway issue back in the day never made it to the maiden voyage and so remained forever since here. We shall be returning to the area this year when I hope to visit the cone itself.

The Prince of Wales Moseley

Reviewed By robertcF3282DT - Birmingham, United Kingdom

This is a great pub just on the edge of the main street in moseley. It looks, at first glance, like an old fashioned boozer, albeit one which is very nicely presented, with a nice warm feel to it. And in many ways kit is, and this is not a criticism. They decor is traditional, with some great filing work on the floor and the walls. However, it is much more than that, g through to the back and you will find a lovely snug (as like the rest of the indoors, though, it is not big, so space is sometimes scarce). Throughout, the beer is well kept and their cocktails very good. the staff are always helpful and polite. Go back further though and you will find the huge garden, that has a cocktail bar, a very large covered seating area, and is one of the big reasons the PoW is a well-known and loved Birmingham venue, particularly in the summer, where there are often cultural events and shows. It is very popular, and a recommended visit (just don't tell eveyone, it can be packed as it is!)
