    Best place to visit in Birmingham beautiful restaurant and staff are just amazing. I will go again and real soon. Food portions very generous and loved the cocktail experience. Drinks are great and non alcoholic options very inclusive of our group in all aspects.

    We were served by Kirsty Charlie Laura and Paul for my 21st birthday. They brought out cakes that had been taken in, but we were given a complimentary bottle of fizz! Really great service and a lovely night! 10/10

    I've not been here in about 5 years so was very pleased with the new look. Very Modern fun and "instragramable". Cocktails were quirky and fun and the staff were polite. Food portions were also a decent size with a added bonus of 3 hrs free parking.

    Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Had our engagement party here in the raised area by the cocktail making class. Nothing was too much trouble. All staff that were working on 15/11/22 from 2.30pm onwards were very friendly and the food was gorgeous. We had 15 sharers for a group of 40 people and the amount of positive comments we had about the food and service was amazing. I can't recommend this place more!

    Great atmosphere and service. It's a great place to meet friends as they have a fair few booths. My only disappointment is it's another place that doesn't stock any Ale's and the soft drinks are a glass of ice so even the large ones don't last long and are expensive in my view for a glass of ice. Free Parking is available just remember to put the registration number in.

    So we were a party of 10, we had bottomless brunch on a Saturday afternoon. We had Max as our server, and he was incredible. He always made sure our glasses were filled, took care of all our food orders, and was overall really friendly, professional and attentive. We really enjoyed our time here!

    The reservation table wasn't in the best part of the seating area. Was looking forward to my cod & chips. Disappointed, as had cod & chips in Wolves previously, and felt these would have been the same. Cod was a lot smaller, thrown over fries. Music was hideously too loud as there was hardly anyone in. Staff came to clear the table and drink spilt all over the table and my clothes :/ Toilets has 8 cubicles and only 1 had loo roll. Overall disappointing :(

    Booked to eat at 8pm. Starters came around 9 and finished eating around 1030. Food was lovely. I had the vegan Xmas feast starter main and magnum for dessert. But apart from it arriving late, the starter was so big. No one wanted to eat the mains as we were too full. It ruined the night really as we were all too full and tired to have a dance Staff were lovely and there was a good atmosphere.

    Me and my sister are frequent customers to the Slug&Lettuce, we've been to quite a few around the UK, we visited the Harbourne, Birmingham Slug&Lettuce on 28/07/2020, and it was the best experience we have both ever had in a S&L. Sadly we didn't catch the names of the people we were speaking to, but the service was quick, the employees were so chatty, upbeat and nice. I wish we lived closer so we could experience the same level of hospitality, customer experience and just so we could chat to them again! I hope this gets back to them as our experience in other S&Ls hasn't been anywhere as nice as this one was.

    2019 Nice cosy place. There's parking around the back of the pub. Good atmosphere. I had the tapas, 3 different dishes, which were all very filling. Although the chicken wings were a little over cooked, the rest was fine. March 2023 On return, I met up with a friend for dinner, and found that this place has had a refurb last year. Not sure if I'm liking it ... looks like a wine bar rather than a cosy pub. A lot of high stools to balance on, and very bright. We found a nice table to the right of the pub which seemed quieter. The Katsu chicken curry was .... ok, and I was tempted by the churros and Belgian chocolate sauce which was warm and tasty. The toilets were at the back, and were clean and tidy. There's parking where you can pay either cash or card.

    We were greeted and told we had booked for table service and we agreed because we had booked a table. A girl came over said ‘there’s your food menu’s and walked off. Our food and drinks order was taken and food came out with no cutlery. We then went to order more drinks and the girl told us she has to go find our table server to then come back and tell us we didn’t book table service. I don’t think this is very clear to customers as surely if you book somewhere for a meal and someone takes your food and drink order that is table service…. She then came back with the IPad just to show us we hadn’t booked table service (in which time she could have just put our order through on our food tab, where our other drinks were). We were then told we had to order more drinks through the app so I would be paying for drinks separately every time and then a food and drinks bill at the end as well. Which makes no sense. At the end of the meal there were no servers anywhere and we could have quite easily skipped out on our food bill as we now apparently had no table service half way through our meal. We then had to go pay for our meal at the bar. Also ordered a chicken breast with salad and was served scruffiest salad and the hardest driest chicken ever. Staff don’t seem to know what they are doing, food was not worth the money, no options on the menu anyway. Cocktails were very watered down. I have been here before with no problems and I never complain but this was atrocious. Next time will spend my money we’re customers are taken care of and not just dumped and wondering what’s going on. Don’t sit customers down in a restaurant where there is table service, give them table service and then take that table service away half way through and make a whole point about it when we just wanted to order more…

    I loved my experience at the slug and lettuce today I had the bacon cheese burger which was absolutely amazing and the side of skin on fries which were lavish. The service was top tier from the waitress called Kelcie. She was pleasant and kind and helped us with deciding what was best to eat and drink. Thank you so much! Will be returning!!

    Good food, mostly great service. One of the waitresses seemed a bit clueless though blesss her. The place looks so pretty as well, really enjoyed looking at the whole interior design

    Our server Rhiannan was great, we wasn’t so keen on the table that had been arranged for us so she moved us to where we wanted to go hassle free. Cocktails and Food was fab, was asked throughout the services if we needed anything more which was as good. Really enjoyed my pre birthday celebrations here! Cocktails and food are great value for money. Customer services and value for money is 10/10 highly recommend.

    Really well looked after on a weekday afternoon. Super friendly bar team sorted us out with the 2-4-1 cocktails and brought them over to our table when they were ready. Recommend the Long Islands (pic). When the (I assume) Duty Manager found out we were celebrating a special birthday, we were made a fuss of with complimentary prossecco complete with sparklers. Fantastic service. Thanks to bar team incl Sunny & Sapphire! ❤

    I visited this place on mother's day for a meal with friends. The environment was nice and staffs were welcoming. Our food took a long time to arrive as it was a busy afternoon. The cocktails were great. Overall, a good experience 👍

    Staff lovely and friendly especially Natasha who served us and remembered me after 18 moths absence! Food good. Thanks for an enjoyable evening.

  • 5/5 Matthew H. 2 years ago on Google
    Well.. I didn't expect that! Haven't been to a Slug and Lettuce since moving to Birmingham back in '06. Came for Breakfast and the quality was fantastic. Having eaten at most venues in Harborne I'm gutted I haven't decided to come in sooner. The staff were great and really attentive and the sausages were a triumph. Sunny and Harmony were a great pair and could actually hold a conversation unlike most in hospitality nowadays. 5/5 will return!

    Hi, I visited your venue last night for a friends birthday. I had a great night, great atmosphere and great music I just wanted to comment on one of your staff members Natasha C. She served us several times during the night she is a great member of staff, really friendly, speedy service and it was great that she remembered our order each time! Not sure how when the place was so busy but you can’t help feel a valued customer when that happens! Thank you Natasha and to the rest of the team for a great night.

    Little night out, Emily sorted us out and made a nice zombie for us (forgot to get a picture as it was very nice and it got drank.) as well as helping the new guy that was there behind the bar. Emanuela sorted our food out, good portion sizes. Nice one guys. Its a pitty some things on the menu wasn’t available. Atmosphere was nice and calm because of the time that we came.
