Indian Brewery Snowhill in Birmingham

Great vibes and service. Food was good. Would recommend and look forward to returning.

Food was really nice, but it’s so loud in there. They could really do with some insulation. Drinks took quite a while to come out.

Love this place, great food, excellent beers, superb people

Came here for dinner with colleagues. Food was ok but nothing great. Asked for a salad twice but didn't get any answer, nor got the salad... Beer choice was good.

Love coming here, the food is amazing! The beers are excellent too, as is the staff. Well worth a visit and I'll be back again soon.

Lovely food but very small portions. Staff are friendly and service was good.

Great venues. Visited both the restaurant and the Brewery Taproom. Food was great. Brilliant selection of beers and great atmosphere for live sports.

Amazing food with some fun ideas and takes on traditional dishes.

Great place, food was delicious and served way quicker than I expected

Found this place online whilst planning my trip to Birmingham. Craft beer, Indian street food and only a couple of minutes walk from where I was staying. The photos of the food looked great so it was a definite to check out. Did it disappoint? Absolutely NOT! Good ambience, friendly staff, nice choice of beers on tap and the food - WOW. I had the yogurt shots and one of the famous flat naans and both were amazing, fresh and chocked with flavour. All in all it was so good that I just had to revisit the following evening. Very highly recommended and well done to all the team!

First time visiting here and I wasn't disappointed! The food was great, lots of options and everything we tried was so good! It is quite busy, would recommend booking a table!

Handy place for food close to Snow Hill station, main meals are around £18, plenty if beer available to wash the food down.

I had a great night out with a friend and The Indian Brewery was the perfect place to have it. Lovely food and drink with exceptional service too. Definitely recommend to others and come back again.

Delicious food, all of it was amazing and the staff were very welcoming and attentive. Definitely recommend

The lady manager was extremely rude. The spicy chill paneer was not spicy at all. When asked about about the ingredients in the dish the manager started arguing and reading the menu back to me again and again. I know to read. The staff was not sure about what was in the food and it tasted really bad. Also, when I enquired the manager assumed that I am asking for some extra food. I was just was curious and did not want anything else but information on my food. I don't recommend the service at all. All the staff kept giving out table weird looks. We are paying the money and they should provide good service to us. Felt they were a bit racist as well.

Great Beer and fabulous food several different dishes to usual Indian restaurant, e.g. Cod bites with curry sauce starter, topped nan breads.

I came in for dinner on a Saturday evening with ex-work colleagues. Although we booked a table when we arrived we had to wait a while until they could find us a table. Once we were seated, the vibe is really nice, urban, and crafty with nods to India. After we were seated, they took our drinks order promptly while we decided on the food. The drinks came out for everyone in our party except for one person. We had to wait another five minutes until their drink arrived. On a positive note, the cocktails were very strong and didn’t just taste like sugar with watered down alcohol. The menu is extensive, with a wide range of options. A few members of our party can’t handle overly hot food. So when we asked the waiter what the pink sauce was, he couldn’t really answer us. We asked if it was spicy and he told us no. That was a lie, it was chilli sauce, so it was super-hot and inedible. On the plus side, the food did come out relatively quickly. As far as I could see there were only three toilet cubicles in the restaurant, and this was including a disabled toilet. There was quite a long queue at one point, and with someone who has an extremely small bladder, it was a struggle to have to wait that long. Overall, I wouldn’t come back again, as the service was a big letdown, the toilet situation was horrendous and I wasn’t overly impressed by the food. Maybe they should have labels stating how hot each dish is?

We visited the new building on Mary St and it looked great. Huge unit, lots of really clean toilets, huge screen for watching sport. However, the building was so cold we had to keep all of our coats on and that meant that it didn’t feel comfortable for us to have lingered and have a few drinks. Some of the service was lovely but another member of staff wasn’t very helpful. The food could be ok but there are no spice ratings on the menu so we ordered what sounded like fine but can’t covered with really hot curry sauce and made the pizza inedible. There was barely any chicken at all on the pizza too, which was £16 so it felt really tight and overpriced. Even the masala fries were too hot to eat sadly. It appears that lots of people have said very similar thing so sad that the owners haven’t taken notice. I’d potentially go back for a drink but not for food sadly.

Reserved a table, wasn't seated for at least 15 minutes after arriving despite the reservation process telling us to arrive promptly or be fined. We were told to have a drink at the bar while waiting to be seated, but then nobody at the bar approached us to serve us and it was difficult to catch their attention. Eventually seated and thankfully able to order immediately. Water not provided for the table and needed to be asked for twice. Food eventually came, it tastes nice, happy with it. It's served on thin paper on plates which all spin if we don't hold them in place. The thin paper very easily comes with food on our forks, leading to less than delicious grease proof paper in the mouth, until we decide to pull it all out from underneath the food. Yes it was busy, but service was slow and poor. Menus would benefit from having heat ratings on the dishes for people who aren't great with spice. The whole place was very cold, despite being at near capacity for body heat. Wouldn't go again.

Very very slow service if you want food. We tried to order food at the bar and were told we needed to wait for a waitress to come to our table. Didn't happen for over an hour

Really enjoyed the evening and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable due to me being a disabled guest.The food was lovely and the drinks were amazing.

Fantastic dinner! Tasty food and large portions. Will definitely come back.

I went here with my mum who came to visit me from India. We both LOVED the place. Shoutout to Radha, who made our experience even better by delivering exceptional customer service! Would definitely visit again!!!

Went here first time for a works do. A large open plan place with a mixture of decor appertaining to be an Indian Street Market. Food is modern and unique take on Indian food but what I had I felt oddly underwhelmed by..HOWEVER I will go back to try the other vegetarian dishes

This is my second time visiting, we had a table booked for 12pm on a Sunday which I did not realise was opening time, When we arrived it was totally empty and we could sit anywhere. The restaurant did gradually fill up by around 2pm. For starters the fish bites were a big hit howver the lamb chops came out very burnt and we had to send them back. For mains the chicken Fat nan was a stand out. Service here was very good.

Kitchen closed at 8:30 on a Thursday in spite of the advertised hours. Ruined our night. Not a serious place!

This place was amazing! Incredible food, great drinks and good prices.

Nice place. Good food, they have so many different flavours of beer that you can try something new every time you go up to the bar. The staff are friendly. A good place.

Seems to have gone right downhill since we last visited. Tasty food but disappointingly limited menu and a distinct lack of beer choice for a brewery. Only 3/8 draft beers were available and it took over 30 minutes to get a drink and what was a fairly quiet night. Absolutely zero fish options available from the menu which was really disappointing as the Indian Fish and chips was the reason we went. No warning of the limited options when we were seated and we were so hungry after waiting nearly an hour to get food ordered and served we stayed. Very drafty near the windows so make sure you have a thick coat too. Waiting staff not very attentive and seemed quite expensive at nearly £120 for four people.

I’d forgotten just how much of a gem this place is. The fat naans are out of this world, however I think I’ve just discovered my new favourite side, masala butter fries!! Wow! Can’t wait to visit the new premises!

Ordered Chilli Chicken and it was sweeter than the dessert 🤦‍♂️

Very disappointed, told my party had tendered an old 20 note. No one in our party had but staff were insistent that we had without any actual proof. Very disappointed, Buyer beware. Won't be back after this experience.

Delicious 💖 initially we tried fish and chips and had to eat outside in the train station 🤣 because it was packed in side (saturday). Had to come back the next day to try everything. Totally worth it please get the platter, mixed grill and fish and chips 🤤🤤 the chai was made there too and was a nice balance after a heavy meal ！

Really good place, lots of food (Indian street food) & drink options. Good service and an unpretentious atmosphere Been here 3 times now across a few years, been great every time

Such a shame that a lovely evening out was spoilt at the end. Food and drink was great. Service and atmosphere good. But the whole experience was spoilt when it came to pay. Party of 5, two payed by card, three with cash. A couple of minutes later a member of staff returned to the table saying that an old style £20.00 note had been used. The notes had been counted at the table by the server. Those who paid cash had been to cash points before the meal and still had new notes. We have been friends from school and known each other 50 years plus. Horrible to say but we all felt we were being had over.

Popped in for a few beers and lunch. They didn’t have one of their own beers available which was a shame but the food was reasonably priced and good size serving. The beers were very tasty and worth a visit

This was my first visit but it definitely won’t be my last. Fantastic welcome followed by some of the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten. The beer is exercent too. Popped into the new taproom before coming here for food. Both are exceptional 👏

Food and the beer was really good!

The food came out quickly and was tasty. The staff behind the bar were a little clueless. The Indian posters on the wall were fabulous.

The ambience in this restaurant is lovely. The Chaa was beautiful, especially on a cold day! Service was great. Food taste was average in my opinion - looked better than it tasted.

We went for some food and a drink, but unfortunately it was fully booked so we stayed for a drink. The atmosphere was buzzing and the food looked and smelled amazing. Hopefully we will be able to get a table next time. EDIT: Food is brilliant, and extremely good value for money.

Amazing place. Great vibe, Drinks were amazing and food was delicious. Went on a Saturday afternoon. It was busy but not bulging. Definitely worth a repeat visit.

Service was very slow. Food was very good. Asked for more sauce ketchup or mint sauce didn't arrive so had to keep asking for it again.

One of the best mixed grills Birmingham has to offer. Great portion size and full of flavour!

Cool place, ideal before boarding a train.

We ate at the Indian Brewery on a wed evening, it was quiet which is the only reason I didn't give it 5. The decor sets the scene for Indian street food and it really does deliver on the promises of such a cool setting. The staff were pleasant and friendly, the menu was intriguing, the food was very well presented and tasted as good as it looked. It's fabulous, I would definitely recommend it to anyone. The beer is fresh from it's own brewery and the staff took pride in putting a perfect pint. The 2 for 1 cocktails went down well with half of our party of 4. We ordered too much food between us and begrudgingly had to leave some of the fries. But 4 of us ate like kings, had 2 x pints, 4 X cocktails and more food than we could eat and it was still less than £25 each. Don't pass this place, it deserves your custom.

Nice little restaurant, fabulous for a group but we did need to wait some time for our food.

Lovely food and excellent cask ales. I recommend thet you book as it gets very busy.

Some great local beers on offer and lovely snacks. Will definitely return.

cute spot with really nice food, a nice mix of british and asian from what i can tell. yeah, really yummy. good drinks too ofc

Great atmosphere. Menu can be better but still a good selection of items.

Great little restaurant with a cracking atmosphere, authentic Indian cuisine with a street food twist! Highly recommended & cannot wait for the tap room to open down the road.

Absolutely superb service and food. Lovely beer, and nice atmosphere. Well done!!

The nan bread specials are great 👍

Just finished my meal here and can safely say the food is amazing, the service is amazing. I had the butter chicken curry and it was delicious.

Return visitors …100% our happy place Great beer and food with a fantastic vibe

Fantastic, customer service and reaction times could be improved but overall, 5 stars

Amazing food and fairly easy to locate. Loved the Butter chicken and all in all a very affordable meal. The range of choice was almost daunting but great to see and the selection of drinks was perfect. Can't wait to go back

Loved the vibe here. Fat Naan and Indian Fish and Chips were really nice. Really great service and can't wait to go back and also visit their new taproom.

Great vibe. Being Indian, I can can this food is very authentic. The aubergine vegetable curry is the best. Butter chicken was also great, but i prefer my chicken in chunks and not shredded. Don't quite get the 'fat naan' hype, the naans aren't really fat, but nevertheless a great place to eat. They also have lots of different beers, I'm not a beer drinker, so didn't try.

Ich habe letzten Sonntag ein indisches Restaurant in der Innenstadt gesucht. Auf Empfehlung eines Polizisten bin ich hier gelandet. Eigentlich wollte ich noch ein indisches Curry auf meinem wochenendtrip bin dann aber bei den Naans gelandet. Erst ein gemischtes und dann noch eins aus Föllerei, weil es einfach so lecker war! Dazu ein Bombay honey ( hatte ich erst etwas bedenken, war aber super). On top ein witziger laden und super freundliche Bedienung. Ic würde dort immer wieder hingehen und noch die vielen anderen Sachen probieren wollen . Kann ich nur bestens empfehlen

Found this place by chance and wasn’t disappointed. We had the delicious fat naans and masala fries. Generous portions, good vibe, funky bar. Would definitely recommend.

Unbelievable tasty street food at Knockout prices There was so much in offer couldbt make my mind up The atmosphere was relaxed service was very good Now the food , masala chips omg to die for , the half and half nanns were sumptuous and so full of spices Will definitely be returning

The food was good. The staff were pleasant, accommodating and attentive. The place has a good retro India vibe.

Awful service, rude and confrontational staff who didn't seem to know what they were doing. Worst experience I've had in 20 years which is an achievement

Astoundingly bad service. Food and drink may be good (I tapped out before I got there) but service was awful from entering to leaving

Great food and good range of beers

We popped in for a quick drink on a Sunday afternoon. Limited selection available on tap. Even some of their own beers were missing. Those that were available were underwhelming at best. The "creamy stout" they advertise is actually just camden stout - false advertising? . Not worth a visit for the beer.

Lovely food, and good service! Can get busy so make sure you book during peak times

If you fancy some curry and good beer this is a great place to be . Good selection of beer and the food is delicious

Amazing food and beers, we prebooked to avoid disappointment. Service was great, but personally, the atmosphere could be improved by playing more South Asian music and smaller (cosier) tables. Loved the aesthetics of the arches, decorated in vibrant Indian art and old bollywood posters.. Cannot wait to return. Highly recommend to everyone.

The food - particularly their Fat Naans are absolutely worldly. The flavour is sensational and the portion size plentiful. Their masala fries also delicious and plentiful. The service is the best you’ll find in Brum and the vibe is great. The beer is average at best. Going on the Cobra vibe of flat, bland pale/lagery drinks to have with a curry. But come for the food - 5 stars all the way!!!

Literally nothing bad to say about this venue. Ok you don’t come here for white starched line. And soft music but that’s the whole point! It’s clean, food is outstanding and reasonable prices and the atmosphere is designed to make you feel like you’re enjoying a Delhi street vibe. If you like Indian style food with no drama then get down there.. now!

One of my favourite places to eat. It never disappoints.

Called in while in Birmingham for training. Very friendly welcome. Great choice of food, with super quick service. Food was excellent, and great beer as well, what more can you ask for. Will definitely visit again and highly recommend.

Lovely little gem ran out of beer quick and weren't very fast at serving we didn't know that food stopped at 9 could be so much more this little hidden gem

Great food, friendly efficient staff and good cocktails. What's not to like?

Last week I (group of 4) visited this place by a recommendation from friend. It was really great food especially the fat naans and masala loaded fries under a good ambience of 80s Indian cinema posters around. Thank you Nicola for the recommendation.

Just as brilliant as it has always been. Erm. Not much else to say

Stopped off for a craft beer and had to try the food. What a great menu but we just wanted a snack so opted for the crispy rolls and yoghurt shots!!! If you have never had yoghurt shots then you have been missing one of life's mysterious delights! Wow!! Also known as Dahi Golgappe, puff crispy shells filled with chutney, sauces, chickpea and coriander. I could eat a bucket full! A bit like when you load a poppadom with all the accompaniments, only better! A really good range of beer on tap, keg and cask too. Cans available to carry out too. We plan to come back for a full meal sometime. Definitely recommend. Friendly attentive staff. Urban utilitarian decor with more than a hint of Bollywood. A must visit if you like good beer and food. We enjoyed it so much we went back for dinner in the evening!

Very few beers on draft really disappointing

They do two vegan faat naans which were decent. The Vegan Power and Big Plant 💯 recommended by the food blogger on Instagram HungryOlivethethyme and wasn't disappointed 💯

This is a bit close to our place of work and this is always our sought after destination for after work parties and send offs or get togethers. The craft beers are quite nice and not to forget the amazing food they serve. Brilliant place!

Top service from the team and the food was also spot on. Fat naan was my personal favourite, epic flavours and proper loaded. Loved the seletion of beers available and the vibe under the arches gives it a great atmosphere too. Can't wait to revisit with the rest of the family.

Amazing family run place. The family are so nice! I'm fussy and never drink beer but I enjoy the Juicy Mango so much!

Cool place but very small, we couldn't stay to eat because they had all the tables reserved despite the place being fairly empty

Lovely staff. Great food. And the beer is decent

Visited this place located in Snowhill , Birmingham. Amazing atmosphere with old Indian movie posters and Indian music in the background. Small and compact menu to choose from . The drinks menu is fancy and has loads of options to choose from. Tried Chilli chicken , chicken roll and samosa chaat. The only downside is that the dishes were too damn sweet even for an average Indian dish. Tasted more like a dessert than an Indian starter. I believe it would be helpful if we mentioned the spice level while placing the order itself. The Brewed beers were flavourful and refreshing.

Great place! Absolutely delicious butter paneer curry, attentive staff, wide range of beers. Not awkward at all as a solo diner - made to feel welcome.

Very friendly, reasonably priced and food was excellent

Have been twice first time the food took over an hour and we weren't offered a drink for 30 mins , it was a large group of us. The 2nd time was just 3 of us and the food was quick and service much better, the atmosphere is a little strange the staff aren't very welcoming and it's like eating in a canteen very disengaging and not very comfortable. A bit of a warehouse vibe works in the summer, but not so much on a rainy day.

Decor great, food superb and staff lovely. Faat naans and butter fries a must!

It is a good place with good beers and great service. We ordered for Jubel peach beer and peacock beer. Juble Peach Beer was amazing, and I would recommend everyone to give it a try at least once. It was sweet and flavourful. For food, we ordered the Mix grill, which was also good and also chilli cheese coriander naan in which I felt the cheese was less . The only drawback in the mix grill was lamb chops as the meat was very chewy. All in all, it's a good place to visit and have some nice beers.

Having seen the reviews I visited yesterday whilst on a day visit to Birmingham. The food was amazing and all the staff were so helpful and kind. I can't recommend this place enough. It's so good and I will be back here (or in the new taproom which they are opening shortly) on my next visit to Birmingham..

Amazing food and great decor! Very friendly and attentive owner! Definitely recommend 👌🏽

Has a cheeky lil atmosphere with beautiful staff and some bang on food. Feels like a slice of India.

The peach lager is awesome, but so far the ales have been a flat, sorry affair. Food is reasonably priced and the service is lovely. The place itself is really cool, especially when there's lots of people there. Perfect place to start or end a little pub crawl around St Chad's and St Paul's. 👍

A must-visit when in Birmingham, this spot offers an exceptional in-house brew that sets the tone for a great experience. Their masala fish and chips are a standout, blending traditional flavors with a delightful twist. My new favorite discovery, however, is their potato and aubergine naan bread—an inventive and delicious dish that I absolutely love. The combination of flavors and textures in each dish is superb, making it a culinary destination you won’t want to miss.

Great experience. Real rustic gastro type feel in the bar/restaurant. Food very good quality and decent beer. Service good.

No halal options. But they do have fish and vegetarian options. Good vibe. Food is fresh and reasonably priced. Good selection of different drinks. Maybe less if you're looking for non-alcoholic options. But you should still find more than enough options. Would Reccomend
