Big things are coming to Birmingham in the next few months, including a brand new outdoor bar and street food experience that’s set to take over Digbeth Arena. Say hello to Luna Springs. Launching on April 12th – the same day the first wave of UK hospitality restrictions lift – Luna Springs is named after…
(ad – pr invite) Exciting news: Zindiya in Moseley has some new menu items for you to try. I visited this pretty spot last week on a busy Friday night after owner Shivani offered to give me (and therefore you) a sneak peek at the new menu that’s coming at the start of October. While…
This weekend saw the highly anticipated return of Independent Birmingham’s Festival at Aston Hall. It also saw my husband and I eat like gout isn’t a real possibility in the near future. The setting – a beautiful seventeenth century Jacobean mansion – looked just as gorgeous as last year, playing host to nearly 30 food…
When Colmore Food Festival returns in July visitors are in for a treat, if the menu sneak peek is to be believed. As I told you in April, this popular free festival is due to return to Victoria Square 5-6th July, with over 30 Colmore based traders offering dishes and drinks. And we now know…
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…
A few weeks ago I mentioned on Twitter that I’d spent an afternoon eating and drinking around the city centre on my own. Yes, shock/horror people do that now. I happen to do it quite a bit, and in some ways I prefer it. Quite a few people asked me for recommendations for where to…
Today’s (very short) post is all about Cheese Fest, which took place at The Bond in Digbeth last weekend. I waffled on about this event back in Feb, and as promised there was plenty of street food vendors offering cheesy specials, plus stalls inside the main hall and live music. The food line up included…

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…
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…
I only meant to pop in for a quick pre-cinema pint, the first time I visited The Bull’s Head. Things didn’t really go to plan and I left 4 hours later full of posh gin and 30 (or so) quid lighter. Story of my life, that. Since that soaking wet winter night, The Husband and…
If you can’t wait to get your Digbeth Dining Club fix come the weekend, this next little news nugget may make you rather happy. Starting from May, Digbeth Dining Club will be at brindleyplace at lunchtimes on the second Friday of every month – all the way up until September. The intro pop up is…
You know your fella knows you well when, instead of flowers, he surprises you with tickets to the Independent Birmingham Festival for a day of eating. Set up within The Bond in Digbeth, the Independent Birmingham Festival celebrated all that is brilliant when it comes to Brum’s indi scene. I bang on relentlessly about my…
Rola Wala has replaced Izza Pizza in the Selfridges food court, and I’ve been down to try its Indian street food offerings. To be honest, I rolled my eyes a bit when I heard yet another Indian street food venue was opening. It’s not that I don’t like them (I would happily eat dosa on…
