Great old heritage pub with a Grade 2 listing. Super real ales so a Camra guide regular.

Warm welcome, great service, excellent thai food, historic building. We always come back when in town. Can't praise this place enough. 25 years under the same management. 👍

Seriously the best Thai food I’ve ever tasted. 6 of us went for food and all of us were so impressed. Not one complaint on food or service. We’ll definitely be back again.

Great pub with easy access by bus. Lovely authentic historical decor including snob screens. Great choice of well kept beers and proper Thai food!

Good Thai food in a classic pub serving various ales. The grilled pork neck is delicious, and a treat you don’t get in many spots. The PadThai is a little sweet for my taste, but if you like classic Thai food typically served in the UK (red green and Penang curry etc) along with a quiet pub atmosphere then you should find something to enjoy here.

Fantastic Thai food. Well cooked and served by a smiling waitress.

4 of us had a delicious meal. It was a Wed so very quiet and lacking atmosphere. It still highly recommended

A wonderful pub with great food and atmosphere, from the outside it looks like a modest looking pub, but inside you have a beautiful Victorian wonder. Superb if travelling up from London again, it will definitely be on my list of places to go.

It's a pub with some of it given over to a restaurant. Really lovely Thai food. Good range and some of it really nice and spicy. With good beer (is Oakham Ales, Citra the best beer or only one of the best ? There is a good debate to have over many pints) it is all good here. All in a fantastic old pub.

Excellent food. Outstanding building. Free car park at the rear. Three cask ales available on a Saturday afternoon out of probably 10 hand pulls, one of which not in great condition, otherwise five stars.

So, disappointed with The Batons Arm Thai restaurant. The vegetarian platter for starter was good but main course was something else, flavouless Pad Thai! 'More like left over mush on plate' The service was even worse as male waiter set us in corner, away from other customers. Ignored us most night, young girl tried her best. Drinks were late & had to remind few times! Differently not coming here. Truly terrible experience of bais service & vegetarian meal was over cooked mess & highly priced! I miss Thai Edge!

Nice selection of Beers. Food is brilliant with a good choice, not the cheapest of places to eat but you have to pay for quality. The architecture is excellent. Nice place to treat yourself. Would definitely go back again

Welcome to Birmingham. Welcome to The Bartons Arms. I usually, when visiting a pub, I take a couple of quick photos of the pub sign and walk in. At the Barton Arms I didn't know where to point my camera. There was so much to delight the eyes. The red brick building occupies a substantial space on the corner of the high street in Aston. As you look around outside, remember to look up and up again. The beauty continues well beyond its second floor. The eye candy continues as you enter. The ceiling is high. The centre piece is the fine rounded wooden bar area. The eyes are carried to the grand staircase and sparkle as they take in the decorative percaline wall craft. To the right is a beautiful 19th century style bar. To the right is the restaurant, fashioned out of the original lounge area. The stain glass window at the far end of the restaurant is awesome. I was sat at a table that was more accustomed to resting a pint on than a dish. The service was attentive and accurate. I felt it could have been more relaxed, smiley to bring that warmth I enjoy. The food arrived quickly. The Bartons Arms offer great examples of Thai cuisine. Very flavoursome. At lunch time an express lunch is offered. For £10.50, you can order a starter and main. Excellent value for money. I couldn't argue about the quality of the food. I would love to see the dishes presented differently. Do away with the standard white crockery. What about some 2 tone coloured fine china. Try some variations on the presentation of the food too. The Bartons Arms is a hidden gem in Birmingham. A pub I would happily recommend to anyone visiting our humble city. The Thai food it offers is excellent value for money. Some food and service presentation tweaks would make The Barton Arms be the Thai Restaurant of choice in Birmingham.

I visited here on a Friday evening from work. The building is absolutely fantastic. Great selection of drinks, wasn't many people in here which was actually a good thing. Bar staff were friendly and so were the restaurant staff despite me not eating on this occasion. Well worth a visit either for a quiet evening of drinks or food.

Its everything it was to look at when I came here from a youngster. The decor is amazing. I miss the coal fires as they made a nice setting on cold days and they dont appear that often now. The beer is not just good its great. The food is one of the best unsung little gems in Brum. You have to try this to believe it. Whoever thought of putting Thai food in a pub needs a pat on the back. The chef is very very talented,the staff are a delight. Its delectable. However,as a plus to take it to even greater heights it would be the icing on the cake to have a crusty cob with thick sliced ham and mustard or a wedge of sharp cheese and onion . That and the beer,I doubt I'd go home until closing time. Its a gem.

Amazing flavours, good portions and beautifully presented dishes. Friendly, smiley and helpful staff. Good range of beers and ales at the bar and in the restaurant. Interesting decor, the owners have kept the building and character very well maintained. If I had a point out any negatives my only one would be the bright lighting. I had previously dined here years ago and it has definitely kept up the high standard of great food, highly recommended for a works night out.

Opposite my previous place of work, the food is mouth watering 5 stars & decent price too. The service is second to none, the staff aim to please. My colleagues frequent this lovely establishment quite a bit ha

Beautiful old pub. Beer was excellent, I didn't have food but a lot of others did, chatting to someone at the bar they highly recommended the Thai food restaurant which is in the building.

Lovely restaurant, food was beautiful staff friendly. Visited again and enjoyed the food.

Great food served by friendly attendtive staff and a good choice of beers. Had the set menu, a very nice selection of starters and mains in a great setting. A great pub on the edge of Birmingham city centre and well worth a visit.

Absolutely love this place! It's now me & my partners new favourite restaurant to eat out. The food is flavoursome & the quality is what you expect for the price. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend 👌.

Absolutely beautiful and welcoming Victorian pub, with original mahogany panelling and colourful tiling. A good selection of cask ales and well consolidated Thai food menu at reasonable prices. It does "what it says on the tin" and more. Kudos.

Very pleasant surprise really good tasting food will definitely go again A wonderful diamond in the rough You wont be disappointed

Beautiful pub and GORGEOUS food! Ideal lunch sized portion and really reasonably priced. Wonderful presentation.

Beautiful Victorian pub complimented by equally beautiful Thai food. Very good selection of beer and wine

Fantastic food ! Great bar! I would highly recommend this pace for drink and dine

Popped in for a pint on the way back from a tour around Aston Hall. Neither of us had been inside for some time, and we thought a visit was well over due. Managed to park on the rather small car park and were greeted by the wonderful smell of Thai cooking as we approached the Lounge entrance. Rather surprised to find it as busy as it was, with the restaurant area looking almost full. Good range of cask beers on offer so tried one of the excellent bitters. If you love over the top Victorian decor, this has to be on your list.

Yet another worthwhile time at The Bartons Arms. Their sharing starter platter is still a firm favourite and my seafood stirfry was just excellent. My partner ordered their bbq ribs twice 😜
