Birmingham’s food scene has become genuinely interesting over the past few years, and some places have earned their reputation fair and square. This list comes from followers of @bababouttown voting on which hyped restaurants and bars actually deliver, which ones are overrated, and which ones surprised them.
It’s a mix of everything: Michelin-starred fine dining, viral halal smokehouse, neighbourhood cafes, and the Ramp McDonald’s (yes, really). Some are worth the money and the wait. Some are pleasant without being essential. A few are just cultural institutions you need to experience for context.
