More is coming to Birmingham - new restaurants, bars, and independent spots to eat across the city and the wider West Midlands. Flat Iron and Sticks'n'Sushi are all joining the scene, plus many more, bringing everything from cosy cafe mornings to fun dinner nights. It's a real mix, from small independent hospitality to bigger names, and it's giving locals more places to go on a regular night out while giving visitors more reasons to come through and stay a bit longer. 

Fresh on the scene

Levain and Cherry - Stirchley

Loaf n Latte - Birmingham

The Indian Streatery is already a familiar name in Birmingham, and now it's got a new home at Resorts World. It's Indian food with street-food roots but a more polished edge: bold flavours, well-made favourites and a menu that's relaxed but still feels put together.
