Tapas bar Rico Libre has moved to Custard Factory’s Kanteen for a new evening dining experience – and to celebrate I’m giving you the chance to win a meal for 2. The two independent Birmingham restaurants have joined forces to provide a new evening offer in Digbeth. Hosted by the popular Kanteen restaurant in The…
Burger Fest is returning to The Bond this autumn, with a one-day showcase of both Midlands and national burger names. Taking place on 12th October from 12:00pm – 6:00pm you can expect to see the likes of Flying Cows, Nanny Bills, The Meat Shack, Libertine Burger, Patty Freak, Baked in Brick, Homeboys, Low N Slow, Original…
Last weekend saw the Independent Birmingham Festival take over The Bond in Digbeth for two days. With tickets to the Saturday session, a group of us headed to the event to eat and drink courtesy of some of Brum’s best independent businesses – and celebrate the birthday of my pal, George. Tickets cost £10 and…
Good day, fellow food lovers. Today I have a quick round up post for you regarding how I spent my birthday week – or more specifically what I gobbled and guzzled during it. If you follow my social channels you’ll have seen me oversharing much of the below, but I was asked a few questions…
If you’re a long-term reader of Bite Your Brum you’ll know I’m a big fan of Digbeth – the ‘shabby chic’ part of Birmingham. Like me, Digbeth is a little rough around the edges and has a colourful past, but it remains one of my favourite areas of the city. While it doesn’t play host…
Last spring I had a jolly lovely time at Cheese Fest over in Digbeth, and it’s back again for 2019. Hosted at The Bond, the one day celebration of all things cheese takes place 12-6pm on Saturday 6th April. You’ll find plenty of street food vendors offering cheesy specials, plus stalls inside the main hall…
Here’s the festive dilemma: you want to eat lovely things but you don’t want to spend a fortune. You and me both. With Christmas almost here you may be laying off the nice lunches and evenings in the pub to ensure you’re not left selling a kidney come 2019. But what if I told you…
On Sunday I had the single best hangover of my life thanks to Digbeth Dining Club. As well as the usual Thursday to Saturday openings, last weekend saw the iconic Lower Trinity Street venue open for a one-off event celebrating the humble Sunday roast. Street food and roast dinners combined – the dream was real…
If there’s anything guaranteed to get me out of bed on a Saturday it’s the promise of dripping, cheesy, filthy burgers. Lots of them. Thankfully all my dreams came true this weekend when some of the best local (and national, quite frankly) patty slingers came together for Burger Fest in Digbeth. Our church for the…
It’s that time again, when we all rediscover our patriotism for a few weeks and start singing Three Lions with more enthusiasm than Russia’s department of poisoning. Yes, the World Cup 2018 is upon us, with the first England match kicking off tomorrow. I don’t claim to be any kind of a football expert, but…
I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it before but I like cheese. I like cheese in all its glorious forms: melted, baked, sliced, diced. Whatever, if it involves fromage I want a slice. With that in mind, it was a given I’d end up at the Spring Market Cheese Festival at The Bond this weekend,…
Everyone has their favourite Digbeth hangout. I’ve always been a total fangirl for Digbeth Dining Club myself, but I’ve found a new favourite in the shape of The Ruin. Found on Floodgate Street, The Ruin manages to combine an old school boozer with your mad aunt’s back room circa 1974. It’s loud, intentionally a bit…
Yesterday saw the first of the 2017 seasonal markets pop up in Birmingham. Found in The Bond in Digbeth, the canal-side setting is a gorgeous hidden gem and just 10 minutes walk from the city centre. The spring sunshine made for a busy event, with hundreds of foodie friends and families spending the day mooching…
