Independent Birmingham Festival @ Aston Hall

Posted on July 25, 2018July 30, 2018 by Laura

I can’t remember how many food/drink festivals I’ve been to in the last month, but I can tell you my jeans don’t fit anymore. Last but by no means least for July’s overindulgence was Independent Birmingham Festival, at the charming Aston Hall. As you can see from the photos, this place is just awful. Not…

A week of food and drink in Birmingham (#1)

Posted on July 16, 2018November 12, 2018 by Laura

Last week ended up being super busy, so I thought I’d put together some of my food and drink highlights. I started the week with a quick mooch around the newly opened Baked in Brick, which of course included a spot of lunch. The full pizza menu doesn’t run during the day so I opted…

Colmore Food Festival @ Victoria Square, City Centre

Posted on July 8, 2018July 17, 2018 by Laura

I loved Colmore Food Festival last year. That may partly be down to being champagne drunk at lunchtime, but mainly it’s because this annual food festival brings something unique to Birmingham. The food fest returned to its home at Victoria Square for the 8th time on Friday, bringing the sunshine and good times with it…

Simple springtime dining @ The Pickled Piglet, Gas Street

Posted on June 13, 2018June 13, 2018 by Laura

I recently found myself moseying along the canals in between meetings, hungry and with an hour to kill. Jumping off the towpath around Gas Street, I spotted the familiar white washed walls of The Pickled Piglet. It’s somewhere I’ve trundled past many times with good intentions of visiting, but until one recent overcast afternoon I’d…

Vibrant summer pub grub @ The Distillery, Sheepcote Street

Posted on June 6, 2018June 6, 2018 by Laura Casewell

The Distillery is an awesome lunch spot on the canal. Hardly anyone seems to know about it either, which, on a selfish level, makes my inner only child quite happy. My love for The Distillery started when we found it one sunny afternoon, after moaning about where I live. I don’t really like residing in…

Weekday brunch @ Primivito, Barwick Street

Posted on June 4, 2018June 14, 2018 by Laura

A few weeks ago I visited the newly revamped Primivito to check out the recently launched brunch menu. Found just yards from Hotel du Vin and Snow Hill Station, this long serving bar come casual bistro is a popular weekday hangout for the banking district. I’m used to seeing the after work crowd spilling out…

5 fun ways to spend a Sunday in Birmingham

Posted on June 3, 2018June 3, 2018 by Laura

A few weeks ago The Husband treated me to a Sunday packed full of food and drink. As part of my birthday celebrations, Ian planned a whole day of fun in the city centre; of course this mainly involved eating and booze. We had such a good time that I thought I’d share some of…

Bottomless brunch @ Pieminister Birmingham, Waterloo Street

Posted on May 17, 2018May 17, 2018 by Laura

There are seemingly an endless array of bottomless brunch options in Brum now, the latest I’ve tried is the Pieminister Birmingham offering. Back in April I spent a Saturday afternoon getting quietly toasted at the ‘posh pie’ shop which can be found on Waterloo Street. This was my third visit to Pieminister Birmingham, having been…

A brilliant birthday lunch @ El Borracho de Oro, Edgbaston

Posted on May 14, 2018May 21, 2018 by Laura

Before flying off to Rome for my birthday (sorry not sorry) I had a gorgeous lunch at El Borracho de Oro with some friends and family. The Edgbaston restaurant is somewhere I’ve enjoyed tapas before, and more recently I scoffed a lot of owner Emma’s grub at 1000 Trades, where she had a successful pop…

Small plates @ Revolución de Cuba, Temple Street

Posted on May 12, 2018June 12, 2018 by Laura

I must admit was a bit baffled when I heard Revolución de Cuba was opening up right opposite Las Iguanas on Temple Street. Why would a Cuban-inspired bar and restaurant want to set up camp literally 5 metres away from a venue offering something so similar? Two chains going to war: be interesting to see…

Pub grub @ The Shakespeare Inn, Temple Street

Posted on May 9, 2018May 9, 2018 by Laura

The last time I visited The Shakespeare Inn I was 2am smashed at lunchtime. From what I remembered, most of the other people in there were too, so I didn’t roll up to my latest visit expecting an awful lot. That says much more about me than The Shakespeare Inn, I realise. My recent experience of…

Coffee and breakfast @ Quarter Horse Coffee, Southside

Posted on May 6, 2018May 7, 2018 by Laura

I’d been meaning to revisit Quarter Horse Coffee for a while, having repeatedly come across its roasts at various cafes across Brum, including Kanteen. The cafe itself, located on Bristol Street, is a light and airy space with wooden furniture and white washed walls. Decoration is kept to a minimum but the place feels inviting…

Mediterranean feasting @ Don Diego, Edgbaston

Posted on May 4, 2018June 12, 2018 by Laura

The Husband and I recently visited Don Diego in Edgbaston for the first time, for a double date with fellow food lover George and her fiancé, Dave. I had actually been meaning to try the food at Don Diego for a while, having seen some lovely looking dishes flying around on social media. I can…

Bread and sweet treats @ Medicine Bakery, New Street

Posted on May 2, 2018May 16, 2018 by Laura

I remember the first time I stumbled upon Medicine Bakery & Gallery. I use that turn of phrase literally; I tripped up outside the place on my way to the museum. Hidden away on New Street, up a steep flight of stairs, you would be forgiven for walking straight past this cool little offering. Forgiven…

Had a manic day and would like to go to the pub to chill out but am so tired from not sleeping due to unnecessarily overthinking today’s manic day (that was lovely/fine) in advance I’m going to bed with biscuits instead.

Imagine how brilliant it’s going to be to have dinner and then see a show. Just realised I’ve not done that since Christmas... 2019 😭
