Calthorpe Arms in Birmingham

I ordered food delivery No mango chutney, chilli n mint chutney gone off and chicken bhuna they use left over chicken tikka in bhuna. Food bag was not seal.

Was told by a friend about this venue. I was pleasantly surprised. My first impression was with how clean, spacious, lots of big TV's. The food was plenty and great value for money. Big carpark at the back This restaurant is worth a visit. I definitely will be visiting this restaurant again in the near future.

Only two staff on wasn't the best of places, only beer spirits no coffee or tea aaked about the disabled toilet no one came back to me and you can't get a single and poor Internet

First time I've ordered a mixed grill from here and the food was amazing, compliments to the chef and to all the staff! Thanks

I like it the pleple in thire are friendley

Delicious mixed grill 🔥🔥 the biryani wasn’t the greatest rice was weird texture definitely not basmati didn’t seem fresh and definitely not authentic 👎🏽👎🏽. Food great temperature 👍🏽 could have give us some free popadoms though 😒

Absolute quality food, arrived fresh and hot. All requests met perfectly. Big Thanks to the entire kitchen team. Highly recommended.

Great food and loved the taste, 1st time i’ve ordered from he, i will definitely be ordering again.

Really nice food. I'm very happy and full! everything was hot and seasoned well. pilau rice was loaded with flavour. lamb chops delicious. star of the show was the chicken madras. will order again from here.

hot ,quick and tasty. couldn't ask for more from a delivery. 10/10 thank you 👍

Excellent quality and taste and speedy delivery. Thanks

Went there few weeks ago, ordered food, came within 2 minutes, pre cooked food heated in microwave, total rubbish from kitchen. No taste at all. No go area.

Chicken was cold and the chips were overcooked and cold

Had my B'Day party in their new salon,(hall) so well organized, the family have lunched & dined never disappointed,

Wonderful place i would reccomend it great atmosphere

Nice pub with lots of locals drinking in there nice and peaceful

My food was absolutely terrible on Sunday I got food for £50 and it was so bad I had to throw it out.The service was atrocious and they forgot half of my food.The butterchicken was cold and stale and my masala chips barely had any masala.I will definitely not be coming back.

Friendly service. Order our drinks from the bar, then went to sit in the dining area. Lots of choices on the menu and the prices seemed reasonable. We ordered our food at the counter. Our meals arrived quickly, which were hot, tasty, and plentiful.

lovely saag paneer, will deffo order food from here again. Also thankyou to the delivery driver 🙏.

You forgot my plain Naan! Refund or money off the next one?

Popped in for a quiet chat with my sister got two drinks and then sore the menu, the food was bang on and ill be having few quiet chats in the future.

Very tasty food. I will definitely order again.

Fantastic food crispy chicken best in burm. So gave you 3 out of 5 because people in car park smoking drugs and drinking out of cans. Don't like even going into car park to get a takeaway . Was fantastic having been told to come back in five minutes by the lad who takes the orders is not acceptable. The same lad chopped all the salad with his bare hands does not ware gloves this is not acceptable tell him to wear gloves

Can get very noisy when they are serving the theater crowd.

Food was absolutely amazing. fresh, hot and very flavourful. Thank you

Only went for my tea Was amazed at the huge size of the place In the front a typical sports pub (Villa supporters) at the back a restaurant that would cope with any family gathering ' Friendly helpful staff' lovely meal large portions and surprisingly cheep

Excellent quality for a curry and grill. Staff were friendly and prices very reasonable. Location was clean tidy and not too busy for a Sunday night. I would visit again

not too bad. chicken tikka pieces were massive.

Delicious mixed grill. Good portion and tasted great. First time ordering but won’t be the last. Well satisfied.

Food poisoning. Saw a woman throw the christmas tree on the floor because she was angry

Superb quality, temperature, taste, worth every penny👌🏽

Food was very nice, lady at bar was very friendly and helpful, watched Manu villa game whilst eating. Couldn't go wrong

Great place for a good quality tasty Indian grill/meal. Just needs abit more atmosphere, decoration and clientele, although on our visit it's the most number of diners I've seen in a while.

Good atmosphere where you will meet and chat with a variety of ethnicity from all kind of backgrounds. Great place to socialise and watch sports.

Driver was rude, dropped my food and it was cold

Very nice curries. Rich and creamy full of flavour. Would highly recommend the butter chicken. The poppadom was a tad salty and only 1 portion of chutney for 2x orders of poppadoms.

Indian food in the restaurant at the back, bar to the front with a pool table and large tv screen for football etc

They forget my boiled rice and the curry was too thick for a balti and the byryani was dry

Indian bar grill type place, decent despite the location. Service and food excellent as usual, have been a few times.

This was a mistake as tried to add to my first order accidentally ordered twice called the calthorpe arms at 6:29pm spoke with with them and explained the problem the person was not fully understanding what I meant so spoke to him in Punjabi to make sure he understood that this order was not needed and was a listen . Clearly explained this in Punjabi and they said they would cancel the order as they were about to start cooking it - now I see the money for a second order was taken out . Disappointed

Time of pick up wasn't given to the restaurant so my food was 1.5 hrs cold. But the first time just eat has fine this to them

The food tastes amazing will definitely be ordering again

Food was absolutely amazing!!! I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. I normally dine in, but I decided to order it as a take away for the first time, and everything tasted fresh and delicious! The Chilli chips, chicken tikka wrap, crispy chicken wings, and Aaloo were to die for. I’m now currently in a food coma😍

Its very risky knowing that this is very very near me. Came here to order takeaway for the first time and me, my friends and family enjoyed it very much. The portion sizes were very good. We ordered chicken tikka jalfrezi, fish madras, spicy garlic paneer, fish pakora, veg curry and chilli chips. The only none spicy item was the veg curry. The rest were so spicy but SUPER yummy. My favourites were the jalfrezi and fish pakora. The prices were amazing. Next time I will definitely sit in, the restaurant is actually very spacious and has lots of parking spaces. The staff were also friendly.

The food arrived on time and it was at a good temperature. The food was packaged really well. The naan was a decent size and made well. The prawns and fish pakora was nice in the mixed grill. The chicken tikka was okay. The lamb chops were chewy, the kebabs were dry and the wings were lacking flavour. Biryani had a really strong smell which overpowered the taste, majority of the food we unfortunately did not enjoy.

As always great food , right amount of spice .

Management kindly bought my friend' and I a round of drinks. Much appreciated

First time order. Not really impressed with the food. Very disappointing.

The peshwari naan was not peshwari, no coconut and some weird red sauce inside it? Also the sauce on the chicken tikka masala was like water, Iv never known anything like it, massive waste of money

Lovely place and great food. Would definitely recommend the food here. Lovely mixed grill and curry made to order. Staff are friendly and welcoming.

Brilliant food in a lovely clean spacious pub. All the staff are friendly and the main chef always waves as we leave. I eat here regularly now having in the past only eaten in the curry triangle around the Ladypool Rd. Everything I have here (I have tried most of the menu) is as good or better.

Food was delicious and arrived piping hot and on time. Particularly liked the Aloo Tikki Chana Chat.

Kebab was not so great and chicken dry disappointed after reading good reviews

Excellent tasty hot food, portion size generous too. My first order from them and it definitely won't be the last. Our compliments to the chef.

Great food as always, eating in or take out.

Food was mediocre, don't think it was worth the price but no major issues with it

Food could be more tastier, naans were nice, but curry was not very tasty, lacking flavour.

First diners today, came previously and found food a bit too hot. This time food near perfect. Good atmosphere and polite staff. Not sure how the multiplication of Naan breads, gave us enough to feed half of Perry Barr? Spotless restaurant, give it a try soon folks...

Korma, rice and peshwari naan were delicious. The raita was curdled and very runny 🤢

Food was amazing Thankyou we will be ordering again very soon !!!

Tried calling here just to query about something, and the guy that answered was so rude to me; didn’t even give me a second to finish what I was saying after saying what my query was before hanging up. And then when I immediately called back, I was put straight to voicemail. Not the best way to treat your potential customers over the phone, is it 🙄🙄, like how old are you? Grow up.

Top banana. (There were no bananas in the food.)

Went here for the 1st time this week, was impressed and great value for money. The Biryani was one of the best I've ever eaten. Highly recommend this place.

Lovely family orientated bar and grill. Food is on point along with atmosphere in the main bar would recommend to anyone that wants good scran ideal and spacious for family get together. I can't fault this place

The food is absolutely amazing here 😍 the customer service is as you would expect to be treated and that's very well. The place is beautiful inside and spacious we had the butter chicken 🤤 Lamb biryani🤤 Special fried rice 🤤 And chips are good and crisp but soft inside...And the beautiful cheese naan too is to die for this a new regular for me....food is freshly made and the open kitchen is nice and clean . Only thing I'm annoyed with is that I wasn't coming here from the moment it opened lol and I live so close 😩🤣

Worst food I've had from there in ages usually nice and tasty grill has gone down hill lacking flavour and also the lamb sagwalla I ordered was a joke no flavour no spice nothing desi about it at all shall not be ordering untill it returns to its former glory my suspicions are not cooked by an Indian chef probably another country

Great place to have a great time

Excellent service and excellent staff overall excellent experience food was amazing

had a Superb meal here new years eve. Food Faultless. Decent selection on the taps too 👍

Love the refurbishment. Amazing food and excellent friendly service given throughout our visit. Good value on food and drinks definitely not disappointed.

The food here is amazing! The service is slow but the pub is kind of busy but it's fine. Sunny and his team always give us a warm welcome and nice smile. A solid 10

This was my second visit. I came with my 2 boys and their grandparents on Saturday. Food took a bit longer to come but was delicious. I had the keema with roti. Would definitely be ordering that again. Staff were very friendly. The place is modern and clean. Definitely a new favourite of ours.

Food was great but they forgot to send me the rice !

Surprisingly quiet when we went on Tuesday evening. This is the third 'desi' pub I know of in Handsworth and well worth the visit. Faultless food and service.

Great food and plenty of clean space for people to sit down and enjoy

Excellent food and service. Will visit again.

Food is amazing, the staff are very welcoming. I've returned several times, since my first visit ... I would highly recommend.

Came here a few times now and the staff are really pleasant.. the food is delicious and the person serving food is well attentive.. highly recommend this place... also very clean in comparison to other grill places we've been to in the past... 👌

Visited the Calthorpe Arms for the first time in 15 years and was impressed with its layout,,, the extension being made to add a restaurant looks good,, the venue itself I'd recommend for football fans but I'd advise sitting at the tables in the restaurant area particularly if a live football match is on,, the bar tends to have lager louts chanting obscenities about other clubs they don't like

Very good service, excellent food, nice atmosphere!!!

Very good lamb curry whilst watching cricket

my butter chicken was done with heinze tomatoe soup, well thats what it tasted like. Then they just added pieces of chicken which didn't taste fully cooked. therefore couldn't eat im pregnant... the egg fried rice was scrambled egg with boiled rice it wasn't fried together. the naan bread was burnt and what ever oil it was cooked in. not the best I've tasted

Perfect food excellent service

Seems alright, nice friendly staff, reasonable prices and nice seating

DISGUSTING food. The fish was hard AND THE salad was BLACK. They clearly did not put effort in their food and the meat was tough and was probably cooked days ago. When I phoned him he spoke to me in a rude Manor and I showed him the food and he only gave me 7 pounds back when I spent 48 pounds. The entirety of the food was horrible.DONT GO HERE

It's been refurbished so hopefully when it's done it will be a lot better

I usually get takeaway from here, but recently when I ordered Chilli Soya, I was given chilli Chicken instead. As a vegetarian, I was extremely distraught when I had eaten some of this and although the soya looks a lot like chicken, as it’s covered in the same sauce and comes with onions and peppers, it was very clear that I had been given chicken instead Of what I had ordered. When I called and spoke to the manager, who remembered that I had ordered soya- he apologised and said all I can do is say sorry and there’s nothing more I can do! He insisted I bring the chicken back then and there, which wasn’t practical as I don’t live nearby. I bought it in the next day and all he did was insist that the chicken I had eaten was soya. The chicken had been taken away and they gave me soya back, poor portion sizes and they didn’t even compare them both, as funnily enough the manager disappeared before we could! Clearly guilty! I would have respected him more if he had held his hands up to the mistake. Clearly they need to carry out quality control here. I wouldn’t recommend visiting here. As a vegetarian, I found the manager insulting my intelligence even suggesting I had eaten soya by showing me a frozen packet of soya. Like that helps at all! Bad review, but justly deserved!

2nd time visiting with my family, nice Sunday vibes. Meal was excellent, portions were 👌🏾. This maybe the new family monthly go to.

Was so annoyed that it was 45 mins late stone cold

Service was fast, good spacious seating and plenty of what looks like 4k TVs. Food was great. Starter potions were a bit, we ordered small pakora fish( needs to be more crispy) and crispy wings (were great). Lamb jalfrezi curry was slightly over cooked just the meat but the curry was better then most mixed grill places in the area. Needs more uniqueness to standout.

Great pub especially the weekends and great people.

I eat at this pub quite a bit but the food I’ve had delivered is just appalling Burnt poppadoms Dried chips Everything is just way too spicy like as if someone just emptied a chilli tub on it all Everything I’ve ordered I’ve had at the pub and it’s never been this spicy the food was just inedible

Brilliant food was like home cooking service was good.

Lovely atmosphere and great food

Nice new extension on a real old pub , food is reasonably priced and tasty made in a brand new spotlessly clean kitchen , friendly staff , worth a visit , can recomend the fish pakora

Food was nice. Good choice. Drinks were good. Wasnt busy but was a monday night. Would go back

Food service was excellent. Take away 👍. Only live 3 minutes away. 👌💯

Great service and good food. Definitely will be back to watch the football

The food is stunning and great value

Venue - Good refurb, plenty of screens. Large car park. Clean. Lots of seating. Definitely a good place to watch sports. Food - Low quality, Bland. Theyve tried to match prices of local restaurants but the food quality does not match. Drinks - Carling wasnt great. Cannot comment on any other drinks as i wont be returning.
