The Mayan

The Mayan is a modern Mexican restaurant and mezcal bar located in The Mailbox, overlooking Birmingham’s historic canals. The sleek, upmarket interior features distinctive dark velvet seating with gold accents, centred around a spectacular tree inspired by the mythical Mayan Ceiba Tree. The extensive menu showcases traditional Mexican cuisine with contemporary techniques: expect ceviche, slow-cooked meats, fajitas, premium 28-day dry-aged steaks, and house-made sauces. The drinks programme is exceptional, with an impressive mezcal and tequila selection considered Birmingham’s largest, alongside handcrafted cocktails, premium spirits, and fine wines. Desserts include classic churros, chocolate piñata, and traditional Mayan hot chocolate with cinnamon and chilli. The Friday and Saturday DJ (Tulum night from 20:00) creates a lively atmosphere, though the restaurant is family-friendly with highchairs available.
