Our food

Globally-inspired local pub food

Our small, but perfectly formed kitchen is underpinned by the mantra, ‘quality and variety’, with rotating kitchens from some of Birmingham’s up-and-coming food entrepreneurs, as well as more established names.

This is local pub food, inspired by cuisines all over the place.
