Fresh tasty food! Good service + good prices. Would recommend 👍🏻👍🏻 Ordered after a long time, tried their new loaded hot & fiery loaded chips, I like the concept but I think it's better with fries, pizza was decent I'd recommend 😋

I brought some food from this place on Friday late evening before they shut when I placed my order and they guy gave me the food it was the wrong food I don't live in Birmingham I live in North Oxfordshire so on the weekend when I was off I opened one of the foods there were similar to large potato fritters totally tasteless as well the bill equated to almost £55 but it was absaloutly rubbish to the amount of money I paid and partly the wrong order so I am completely disappointed and angry and will warn others to avoid from this place as well as the gentleman I believe just wanted to sell his stock that was not selling or placed it in customers who haven't been there or are new and not the regulars. I partly dined in the and the dinner we ordered to eat in was OK not fantastically great but the order was wrong.

I particularly love the chips at Big John – they are amazing most of the time! My son is also a big fan of the wings. Thank you, Big John, for your great service and delicious food.

Visited this Big Jonathans branch on my way to the centre of el city. I thought I'd pop in and see what the kerfuffle is all about. Their food is pretty good especially the Panini. It's not overpriced like some places. The tangy sauce hits the right spots and dances on your pallet after every bite.

The food was absolutely appalling and it makes me want to cry. As a disabled and partial blind person I struggle to cook so I thought Big John's used to be good. Both fish burgers were cremated and rock hard, nearly cracked what's left of my teeth, chicken nuggets were hard, dry and extremely chewy, I got piece stuck in my throat and thought i was going to choke to death. The chips were not fresh at all. Why do businesses take our what little money we got and not provide us with up to standard food. We threw most of the food away after eating few chips and little bit of chicken. I feel I should be compensated my money

Service was really top notch, the man on the door who served us was a real credit to the restaurant, I could not applaud him enough. As for the food? Meh. I had a chat puri for a starter and it was absolutely swimming in sauce, it virtually made the dish inedible. For main, i had a paneer masala and a peshwari naan. The masala was okay, but just not enough sauce or paneer, especially compared to offerings from rival restaurants. The peshwari naan was bland with the overwhelming taste being of charcoal throughout too. Not good at all. Overall? It was okay, 3/5, helped by the waiting staff, but the food is nothing that local restaurants like the Covered Wagon/Millennium Balti/Sweet Chillies don't do ten times better. To add, a starter, main, naan and bottle of coke cost me £25. Definitely not value for money.

Food is soo bloody good, it's so flavourful and feels like the food is made with so much love mind. The service is top tier, they make you feel like your dining at your uncles or aunts. Atmosphere is sublime, small and narrow building that creates such an intimate atmosphere. Overall its like going to your grandmother's for dinner, food feels tasty, wholesome and made with a lot of love. The vibe is chilled, relax and peaceful and you can go here on a date, with family or even just mates catching up. 20/10 would highly reccomend
