Restaurant was lovely, staff very polite and friendly. Food was delicious After another visit we enjoyed the food and service. As its local we always enjoy the food

A nice vibe, good food, and great service. I recommend the mixed grill - absolutely lovely!

Top draw place for curry and BBQ grill. Sorts pub atmosphere with screens everywhere to watch the football. Good service and fantastic food. Giant sharing plates of meat for starters, you just can't knock it.

Be careful when ordering they adding extras without you knowing.Overpaying for Bot you never ordered.This time they added 4 rice instead 1.Portion cost 4,5£ So can you imagine how many times they Ripped off people.Avoid

Good food very authentic great ambience recommend to curry lovers

Best food in the area , I have had loads of bbq , this was the best And the lamb , chips , roti , absolutely brilliant

Very nice sizzle mixe grill had the island innn special very tasty big hot plate came sizzling, nice staff very helpful

Ok food bit pricey no onions with mix grill as stated on menu,also no lamb chops

Fresh Great food, both veg and non veg starters and mains. We ordered plenty and even got to take food back home. Soya biriyani was tasty and so was chilli soya. It was the first time we have dinned here and I was pleased, we will definitely come back

Pub restaurant with a difference. Drinks are drinks but the food from the Indian restaurant was exceptional, along with the service. Not a place for a quiet evening for two though.

Came back here after a few years.looks like it as being modernised to a great standard.open plan with little booths for privacy.we had chicken tikka as starter it was so tasty with tender chicken pieces .tandoori style you could taste the smoky ness.very welled spiced .the main course was very tasty aswell.the service was very efficient and freindly service .will definitely be back.

Very oily food but good atmosphere for football.

Nice place but staff need to work on customer service skills communication is poor.

The Island Inn is a fantastic place to eat. The food is delicious. A large variety to choose from including Veg and Non Veg dishes. The mix grill is amazing, food is very tasty and cooked to perfection. Nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. Highly recommended!

A great place to go for a mixed grill or curry. Highly recommend the Butter Chicken!

Food exceptional nobody can do butter chicken better soft naans lovely biryani lovely mixed grill on par everytime

I used to frequent this pub very regularly many years ago. As part of my recent tour of Desi mixed grills, I thought I'd pop in to reminisce and eat. Firstly I was surprised to see how nice it looks inside compared to back in the day. Very clean and stylish now. The lady behind the bar was very welcoming and friendly, the beer selection was ok, with Madri and Staropramen as the most premium ones there. I have to say I was surprised when I tasted the food because it was exactly the same as it used to be. The mixed grill is nicely balanced and not overloaded with cheap wings, there were 4 lamb chops on it. It didn't look promising when it came out with very minimal smoking and sizzling, but everything on it was decent. The only two slight let downs were that the naans were burnt and too firm, and we got given plain chips instead of masala chips. That said, the chips were the absolute perfect texture you can get. We weren't going to bother bringing up the mistake, but the lady at the bar engaged us in chip-related conversation! so we just told her about the chips only, and she immediately went looking to rectify it, eventually refunding us the difference for those. 10-14 years ago, this was up there as one of the best places for a mixi, and I think now it's been forgotten about a little bit with these new ones popping up, but I have to say it's still worth visiting.

We are regular customers. Delicious food 😋 nice service ☺️ and soon there will also be drinks for women 😁🍹 I recommend 😃

A bit small for eating but food is awesome and good service

Very worthwhile visit...with the lads from the gym..must do it again.

Great place to catch up with Friends over some food and drink

Great value for money and the chicken tikka pieces were lovely. Clean and friendly pub with well priced drinks

Lovely starter meal with my parents 💕

Been here twice now and tried mainly the mixed grill. It is the best mixed grill I’ve had in a long time and I have been to many of the places in Wolverhampton and Birmingham. Surprised that it is not spoken about more as I think it’s better than some of the more popular venues in the locality…

Great venue sports bar and food was spot on

Great place to go before the match, great food and atmosphere.

Great Food, Service & Atmosphere!!!

Match pub with best beers and food to die for. Family run pub led by Dal, quality place all round

New ownership have turned this place around!! Fantastic food. Very reasonable prices on food and drinks. Me and friends were pleasently surprised. Will revisit. Would definitely recommend

Been coming here for years, great looking bar and the best food and chicken wings around

Very nice place and food is super nice and good portion! 👍

Next up for a mixy was the island inn West Brom. Firstly best to go round the estate to the back of the carpark to park up. From the island is tricky if you don’t know where the curb ends like me! Venue - really nice inside, gigantic screen and lots of little ones dotted around. We dined in the back area by the ordering hatch. Was really nicely done out with a screen opposite with the match on. We ordered poppadoms to start then x2 island mixed grills, 2 chilli chips, 2 tempura prawns, 3x naans and Masala sauce. Mixy was great loads of lamb chops, tikka juicy, fish batter crispy, shish very flavoursome. Wings meaty too. Chips were gigantic - too big really, like eating a whole spud in one! The only downside to this place is, we ordered all the starters and mains together, we were midway through the starters then the mains appeared so we were presented with a mountain of food when really we needed a gap between. The table wasn’t the biggest for 6 of us so we had empty plates everywhere. If they’d have given us 10 mins between the starters and mains then great, but midway though was too quick. No chicken lollipop on the menu as per the website too. Overall nice food, loads of lamb, competitively priced and really nice venue great for when the sports on.

Delicious food, didn't have to wait long and freshly cooked. Polite staff and very helpful. Definitely be making return visits.

Always have a great experience here. Manager and staff are really polite and friendly. Food is tasty and the portions and price are perfect. Not too busy either so you can have more of a chilled time. Recommend a visit.

Great atmosphere watching Birmingham vs Albion , food and service great

Everything bought to thetable together starters and mains . Food was OK

First time using it i will be back

Visited here a few times and foods been fine, visited and with my sister during lunchtime. Order a mix grill, we both took a bite of the chicken tikka and simultaneously looked up at each other stunned, I said it’s off and she agreed. Complained to the chef he changed the grill but second batch was the same so we left it. I mentioned this to the bar manager and he could quiet clearly see the second grill had barely been touched. All he said he will have a word with the chef. No offer of a refund. Will not be returning.

Seen another review about poor customer service from the owner. We waited ages for food and didn't serve us kebabs that were missing from the mixed grill. He accused us of being wrong and effectively lying. Lovely looking place but won't be going back. The rest of the staff were polite but when the owner behaves the way he did was pathetic.

We booked the Island Inn for our works Christmas meal/drinks, service was exceptional even from before we arrived. We paid in advance for our tab and Dal was more than helpful sending over an invoice and keeping me updated on when they had received the payment. On arrival we were sat right away in an area all together (20 of us) our meals were all correct to a list I had provided beforehand and brought out fresh and piping hot. Most of us had the mixed grill and every bit of it was delicious! We had one vegan in our group who had a meatless curry and thoroughly enjoyed too. The portions were huge on the mixed grill most of us had doggy bags for home, mine fed me for 3 big meals! (Island Inn mixed grill). The bar has an extensive choice of drinks and cocktails, I think I tried nearly every flavoured vodka they had to offer, and my boyfriend tried most of the whiskeys! I didn't keep a close eye on how much the drinks were but we had £369 on our tab left after our food and the last of us didn't leave until 8ish so 7 hours of drinks for that amount must mean they're pretty reasonable! Will definitely return next year if they'll have us! :)

Banging Indian cuisine. Great authentic food.

Absolutely amazing food as always

Medioka ive had better ive had worse decor is beautiful foods ok and was cheap staff are friendly and food comes out fast

Great food, parking is a bit poor as small catpark

Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. Had prawn curry which was delicious, good portion size a great price. Definitely will be returning. 👌

Great place with modern décor, good is good wide range of Indian mix grill And Currys available

Not so good food now like it used to be ,also high prices and less portions!!

awful. waited 2 hours for food which was not worth the wait. don’t ever reccomend !

Terrible, took 2 hours for only 2 small dishes. Do not recommend, go copper fox

Great food as always busy as usual

Booked a party of 10 and made sure all dietary requirements would be catered for. Got there on an early Sunday evening to be told that the Vegan Mixed Grill which is advertised on the website and the menus was unavailable despite my telephone conversation a few days earlier mentioning my delight at such an option being available. Won’t be coming back and am extremely disappointed that a place which plugs vegan food was found so lacking.

Came in to watch the football and place is great for sport and drinks are very well priced and service is great. The food on the other hand leave a lot to be desired. We ordered food to be ready for 7pm when the football had finished to take home, despite ordering at least 1 hour -130 before hand the food was not given to us until 7:20. The food itself was awful, I had one bite of a piece of chicken and threw the rest away. It didn’t taste good, smelt funny, looked even worst. Had I of been in the restaurant I would of sent it back straight away and asked for my money back, £45 worth of food in the bin. For drinks and sports it is worth going but I’d definitely eat before you do.

Great Pub Great Food Great Staff and good people 👍

Food is insaneeee! Best chilli paneer ever! I cannottttt rate this place high enough, amazing!

Beautiful food, Decently priced and a nice atmosphere due to friendly staff.

the food and service was lovely the restaurant was clean Great place to watch sports as there is screens everywhere the place has a mixed atmosphere so you can go alone, as a couple, a group or a family I'd recommend the lamb chops for starters

Really great staff, atmosphere and nice place.

Went for a birthday meal with a few lads. Clean place, tasty food, good slushes. Parking and location is a slight issue but it wouldn’t put me off returning. Good job IIP 👍🏾

Great food with a good environment.

Been spruced up since I last went in hence the price increase but the food from the grill was top notch

Went with my daughters and received excellent service and beautiful food need to get me some remy martin now as tried it there and was amazing ,thank you

amazing place to eat and service was brilliant . Definitely recommend it with family and friends.

Punjabi food has always been the best food to be found in India and the guys at the Island Inn have bought that to sunny West Bromwich. Recently refurbished and tastefully decorated moder pub come Indian restaurant. The beer is always well kept and the food is exemplary. The fish pakora are to die for and my favorite Rara Ghosht (chunks of lamb along with minced lamb) is mouth watering. Big portions so there's always enough for a lunch doggy bag for the next day. Can't fault it and I've tried loads and loads of local Indian pubs. Well done guys 👍🏽

Great new design in pub great meeting place plus tasty food too

Highly recommended food wise but parking can be a bit iffy and even then, drove there with no issue and drove out not even 2 feet and heard my exhaust was on the floor with no signs of rust. Dodgy! Have since returned but not without a hardwired front and rear dashcam

Good food but quite rowdy & portions are small

Quality food great drinks and spotless

Nive friendly staff , clean kitchen and eating area , recomend the king prawn balti

Great food cooked to order...staff friendly and helpful

I have never had a bad meal from here, we order every week and the curries, rice and naans are just beautiful. We tried the samosas to day but didn't like them, very mushy inside but everything else has always been spot on. The lamb chops are to die for

Before it was refurbished there used to be bar area and restaurant area now it's all restaurant area ofcourse you can have a drink but atmosphere is not the same otherwise it's beautifully done and very clean, good service well done.

1h waiting time for the same dish it would normally take . Taste different than usual, extremely spicy. A bit disappointed as usually it's great, but not this time.

Now being a mixed grill conissoir of some sort, this is a hidden gem. The place seems newly furnished and there are plenty of tv screens around. We had the regular grill (decent size) its nearly £20 so wouldn't expect any less. The grill was spot on. proper pieces of meat all tasting great. The chilli paneer was a bit of disappointment very greasy and lacking flavour. Chilli chips were great. Plus the pint of Coors was nice amd chilled. Overall a nice suprise to find a decent grill!

Superbly upgraded venue. Good food, great atmosphere and top rate service. To top it off a brilliant landlord who goes out of his way to make you feel welcome.

Excellent food...lamb chops are on another level! Place has been revamped!

Been to this place few times now and place has been transformed in last couple of years. I like how the place has been redesigned to give it a facelift. Amazing place with excellent food and staff is super friendly. Well-designed seating area for those football nights for lads to sit and enjoy there food and drinks watching football on massive screen or just on the tv next to your table. Seating area for families too. I was bit surprised to know place can hold easily up to 200 people approx., which is great if you want to celebrate birthdays or any type of small gathering. My visit to this place is only when i want to eat good quality food and enjoy few drinks outside home. Taken 1* off for parking problem as this place is situated right on an Island there is only parking space available at the back for 20-30 cars and rest must park on the road. But i can overlook parking issue as I’ll catch a taxi for £10 and can share between lads. Defiantly recommend this place if visiting in or around WestBromwich.

Just had Island Inn mixed grill and chips so good delivered .got to be the best in west Bromwich no best I brum

Lovely place staff pleasant and polite food is bang on only problem they bring starter and main together so by the time you've ate starter main is cool will go again will just mix the lot together

Very good service excellent food

Food was good 👌🏾 would come back again

Great place to go for a drink and have a good meal.It has the added bonus of big screen tvs so on match day its the perfect place to go .

Excellent food , quality meat and taste. Best place for mixed grills and currysz especially lamb 🔥

Good pub with great drinks selection and atmosphere was good. Food wasn't bad. The mix grill was decent. The lamb chops were the highlight

Fantastic food great service 👍 👌

Food and atmosphere is spot on here

Very smart decor....food beautiful...n staff fairly attentive

Awesome pub with new decor and amazing Indian food. One of the best Indian desi pubs by far

Went tonight as hadn't been up for awhile always enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Tonight was so disappointing waited ages for food the order wasn't correct after my daughter had repeated it three times to them. No apology at all.. It was noisey couldn't hear your self speak, tables were on top of one another didn't enjoy it at all so won't be going again. Sad really we have Bern going up there for years.

Great meal with family good value for money

What is better after a home win to celebrate a few pints and a curry
