Malt House in Birmingham

Después de un largo viaje, tenía muchas ganas de una buena comida familiar, con un nombre en el que puedo confiar y ahí es donde todo salió mal... Normalmente soy bastante aventurero con mi comida, pero solo quería una buena hamburguesa simple. Pedido 2 hamburguesas diferentes y pescado con papas fritas y comida para niños... . . Todo frío y no me refiero solo a un poco cálido, realmente me refiero al frío. . Aparentemente el pescado se calentaba cuanto más comía mi pareja, pero el mío tenía que volver, por el otro lado, al menos no tenía que esperar a que mi pequeño se comiera el suyo 👍🏻 ¿Volvería, diablos Noooo...

Qué gran lugar para el almuerzo del domingo. El Pollo Asado fue excelente. Muy sabroso, conseguido y con un buen tamaño de porción. Estaba ocupado, pero encontramos una mesa afuera al sol, con vistas al canal. Gran servicio, rápido y eficiente. El único inconveniente de sentarse fuera era que todas las mesas estaban diseñadas para fumadores.

Dette var et flott sted hvis man ønsker en stopp for å ta seg noe drikke. Spiste ikke her, men nøt en god øl. Stort utvalg. Beliggenheten langs elva er flott, behagelig atmosfære og hyggelig betjening

Visitamos el pub esta semana y se convirtió en la tercera experiencia pobre en los últimos 12 meses, por lo que hemos dicho que no volveremos. Parece la norma esperar un tiempo excepcionalmente largo en el bar y se siente como una prueba para ser servido. El pub nunca parece tener suficiente personal. Tampoco parecen tener personal de acuerdo a los eventos en la CPI que trae costumbre extra al pub, hemos tenido experiencia personal de esto y la gente que conocemos ha dicho lo mismo. Esta semana nuestras bebidas estaban mal hechas y un extremo de la barra parecía desproporcionadamente lleno de vasos vacíos y sucios que realmente necesitaban limpieza, fue la misma última vez. Esta semana, cuando visitamos, la planta alta del pub estaba cerrada y necesitaba abrir ya que no había suficientes asientos abajo. Es una pena ya que podría ser genial y los problemas resueltos pero parece caótico.

Came here for friends 25th birthday for food the service was slow over 1hour waiting for food and try to get drinks waiting for 15mins as the bar staff just ignore you and just walk off to kitchen. NOT recommended if your here to vist the Arena you will be waiting along time for food & drinks.

Esta casa de malta reutilizada está bellamente decorada por dentro. Es un pub cómodo para sentarse y dar una o dos pintas. Mientras veníamos a tomar algo, la comida que vimos que se llevaba a otros clientes se veía fabulosa!

I have known of this pub for many years but only in the past week or so decided to venture into it for a visit. A wonderful building, very well kept, clean, tidy, and well laid out. The defining feature is, however, the staff who are all patient, polite, welcoming, friendly and adaptive to a standard that is a cut above.

Always busy but always good service. Good atmosphere. Nice location. Always want to visit if going to a gig

Very good pub with a beautiful bar. The food was good and the prices were right. The location is perfect when the weather is nice. A visit is worth it.

Great experience albeit for slow service

Told wait for food would be half an hour, an hour later still not had food. Asked server how long it would be, was told another half an hour maybe more, server not apologetic at all. Eventually got food, was cold. Don't bother eating here.

A huge thank you to Malt house barn for their amazing space. We had our wedding there, and we couldn't ask for anything more. Janet went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with everything. She was always available to talk and reply to any questions. They've recently added on another section, and I can just imagine how beautiful it will be. Thank you so much, Janet, for everything.

Very busy on show days and the drink prices are a little steep but understandable.

No one cleaned the table and food was brought to a table with some ketchup and other rubbish on it. After the fish&chips we all got food poisoning the same evening. Not recommended for a dine out night

Had an excellent Sunday lunch here. Wonderful looking pub in a great location. Staff were great, and did well considering they were short staffed!

Great place for a works event, food was awesome and the staff were great

Really nice pub on the canal. Has plenty of TV's to watch the football on and outdoor seating area upstairs and down. Prices are quite expensive but it's near town.

Nice pub with great views over the canal. Will definitely visit again next time I'm in Birmingham.

Fab location. A little pricy for a pub

Staff are lovely and great location!

Very boujie pub with great atmosphere and canal views. Staff went above and beyond and super allergy friendly.

I often think to myself whether they would ever open a pub better than this one in Birmingham. It’s everything the local area needs: ambiance, vibes, service and views. A good pre concert venue as well as a nice place to begin a crawl from your dreams. I like pubs, I like people, malt house.

Food was cold and Childs food disgusting. Inedible pasta.. sent pasta back and pasta even worse when it returned. Just go for a drink nothing more.

Just had drinks here it was a great atmosphere, nice staff and reasonably priced. Thanks very much

It was ok. Staff not the most cheerful/friendly. I asked for a cup of tea after our meal and it was cold.. told twice it was ok, it was tepid at most...eventually got a warm cup of tea. Such a shame as this place is close to the arena.

Went here for lunch after we got married. Paul Rena served us they were polite and professional. The food we ordered was fantastic and even cheap beer on offer I couldn't turn that down . The location is stunning highly recommended

Excellent food and service. I highly recommend the halloumi with pickled watermelon and chili jam. Thanks Reena! We loved the canal view and cost atmosphere

An airy atmosphere, plenty of space available. Has a first floor overlooking the bar. Well priced drinks, and a decent menu to choose from. Lee was very hands on, looking after his customers.Will return when next back in town. PRW

Good selection of beers, but terrible kitchen. Burger patty was too well done and quality of meat is very low.

Nice pub near the canals in birmingham

We visited on a Saturday afternoon in May. It was pretty busy as was the whole of birmingham to be fair. The bar was packed with people queueing. We managed to find a queue to wait in to get to the bar, but after about 20 minutes and only moving up 1 space we gave up, and left as did other customers. The staff on the bar seemed to be going particularly slow getting drinks and just walking off leaving people waiting. Shame. Place looks nice but didn't get to have a positive experience on our visit.

Definitely my favourite pub in the area! Lovely decor, plenty of space, decent prices, nice staff and very nice views overlooking the canal has seating inside and outside upstairs and down, can easily spend the day here and has everything within walking distance it can get very busy if somthings/someones on over the road at the utilita arena but still worth it, overall I highly recommend having a drink here. 😊

Professional staff, lovely food, absolutely no complaints. I particularly like the balcony for a relaxed drink on a sunny day..

Me and my partner came in for a couple of drinks and a small bite to eat before heading off to a concert. We had no complaints with the atmosphere being good, drink crisp and food fresh and tasty. Would recommend for a drink and some pub food.

Reena was very attentive and looked after us when we were planning our event! She’s great at planning events here at the malt house and brings attention to detail

Always enjoy popping in .... came with the whole family had some food and it was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Another good evening here at Malt house

Ordered the flat iron steak. I thought it was quite expensive at £17 odd but fancied giving it a try. We were very surprised when it came out. It was the smallest meal I think I've ever had in my life. Almost like they had cut the meal in half. Where on earth was the rest of the steak? I thought they had mistakenly given me a kids meal but apparently not! Utter rip off for that price as well. Shame really as the staff were quite friendly, although nobody came to ask how the food was. Do not order the steak. Utterly baffling.

Stunningly beautiful place, great service and a great pint

Disappointing to say the least. We've eaten here before, and thoroughly enjoyed it. However, this time was a "never again". Firstly, the menu is very limited, uninteresting and expensive for what it is. Young lady behind the bar who served us was disinterested. We decided on the BBQ chicken, but they only had 1 left! So I had the flat iron steak, which I ordered pink. Also asked for the tomatoes on both meals to be swapped for peas. When meals came out, to be fair, they were both hot, as they should be. However, only one had peas, the other still had the tomatoes. The chicken was overcooked and dry, the steak was much nearer well done than pink. No-one bothered to come and check our food was OK. We did look at desserts. But with a very uninspiring choice of 3 relatively expensive options, after the disappointment of the main course we decided not to bother. Probably explains why the place was so deserted compared to other similar establishments in the area.

Lovely pub... especially sat outside in the sunshine 🌞

New management??? We’ve been here for the past 3 years after our annual trip to the sea life centre. We’ve been back because it’s usually good food… when ordering the ironed steak (£18) for my lad we were asked if we wanted it pink or well done, we asked for pink, it was that well done that it was dry and chewy, the bacon cheese burger (£16) was also that overcooked that it was dry and snapped when eating it, the mac and cheese (£14) that my daughter ordered was incredibly bland and had the consistency of rice pudding, the pasta just dissolved as it hit her mouth. My Mrs ordered chips…. They were alright. As we were leaving an elderly couple asked how are food was having left most of their fish and chips because it wasn’t nice, All the dishes were that bad that we won’t be returning next year! The location is spot on! Prime location for hot days by the canal however the outdoor furniture needs replacing. Every table rocks and has layers of sticky stuff on. In the last year it’s dropped so much in standards.

Only stopped in for drink but looks like great place to visit for food also

hugs and drinks, what else do you need?

Lovely place didn't eat as very busy and many tables reserved for wedding(who can blame them gorgeous place) but friendly atmosphere, great staff and beautiful views. I'd love to go back midweek less busy but definitely worth a visit.

Lovely location on the Canal. Large seated area inside and a reasonably sized terrace. It's a Green King pub so has the standard selection of beers. Outdoor seating could benefit with a little TLC.

Beautiful pub and location. Visited on a stag do a week or two ago. Fantastic place to try with a great beer selection!

Only stopped for a drink, so can't comment on the food, but the staff were friendly and the drinks were good.

Maybe the worst ‘steak sandwich’ ever. £9.45 for two dry slices of white bread with 5 slivers of roast beef covering nearly half. A wilted few leaves of salad to complete the dire presentation. Even the waitress was embarrassed. She asked if she could change it but I could not face another one! Beer was OK. Good spot on the canal. Shame.

Love this pub but I can't understand why they didn't have extra staff on when there was a running event on..

This was my flat Iron steak £17.99 came out cold with cold chips you don't really get a lot .. I ordered chicken wings to come out at the same time.. Chicken wing where good and hot.. I'm presuming they waited for the chicken wings to be done and left the steak underneath a heating lamp.. all staff were polite but no one came round to check if our food was okay

Three real ales on offer. Two were cloudy and vinegary and clearly 'gone'. The other was barely tolerable. The staff hadn't a clue! We won't go there again. Staff need training!

Very good experience here, lovely range of ales and lager available. Great location for a lovely drink in the sun too.

Excellent City Centre Pub. Great location, good food.

Nice place to visit. Good atmosphere. Good all-round.

Lovely spot by the canal for a few beers and food with friends. Did have a limited menu on the day we visited with several things unavailable or told not available on ordering which was a bit of a pain. Service quick and warm enough to sit outside for a change.

£23.50 for two double vodka’s?!

Advertises 'Craft Beer' on various signs outside - no such thing. Standard Greene King beer.

Walked in last night with 25 members from the North of England trampolining and DMT team. The staff couldn’t have been more accommodating, they opened the upper dining area and put the TVs on and made us feel welcome. The food was tasty and was served within minutes of each other. Thanks so much we’ll try and book ahead in advance next time.

Absolutely incredible service, food and location. Very reasonable and the man that served us was amazingly polite and attentive. Great customer service.

I didn't eat there but it was a great location and good selection of beers and alea

Only popped in for a pint, being in a city centre, you would expect a bit more class. Limited beers, very much like a sizzler pub.

What a beautiful pub, based on the banks of the canal in Birmingham, opposite the Sealife centre. We arrived with a large party and the staff helpfully sat us as close together as possible, taking up 3 tables. The staff were polite and helpful, but the best was the food! Nicely presented but very tasty. No complaints from our large party of Non Veg and Veg food.

Lovely location. Friendly pub. Good choice of meals and beer.

Had the steak pie meal. Big pie but full of just gravy and 3 tiny pieces of grisly meat. Disgusting. Table had several empty bottles and glasses on when we arrived and still there when we left despite the waitress looking at it several times and ignoring it.

Nice bar with outside area that looks over the canal. Stopped at lunch time on a Saturday, it was rather quiet in there with plenty of seat inside and out. Staff were professional and friendly, toilets clean and the drinks appeared well price, with a good selection of spirits. I'm sure there are more charming pubs if you look further out but for a central pub location a nice place to spend the afternoon.

We had just a pint there before going to see the match, great place

Been for food 6 times, they have only had my first choice on the menu twice. Otherwise its a standard chain.

Nice place by the canal with a good beer selection

This is a beautiful pub in one vof the nicest areas of Birmingham City centre. Set by the canal, it is s vibrant, friendly pub with great a great range of beer at a fair price.

Had a lunch in this place today and was not really satisfied neither with the food neither with the service…the place itself is located in a very nice area with a nice view but if you are choosing in between this and another pub - I’d recommend to try something else

Very busy as next to the Arena and there was a Friday evening gig. About six polite queues so no issues. Always disappointed when a Greene King pub doesn't sell Abbot Ale or in this case, original Old Speckled Hen (they had the Golden Hen). Modern tastes/ demand I presume. Big place with plenty of tables and there were uncollected empty glasses on ours.

Can’t beat a Chef and Brewer for a classic pub meal, especially a Sunday roast! I also love the fact they accept Tesco club card vouchers.

Cracking food, we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and left full & happy. Building was a nice style and decorated well. Service was also brilliant.

Nice bar/restaurant. A lot of fun People beautiful interior. If you order a coke you get a very large glass, but I haven't eaten anything so I can't judge that. Very special fact: former US Prime Minister Obama also had a beer here.

Friendly staff and food selection of beers.

Played shuffleboard here. Was good, nice and open upstairs so didn't feel cramped. Plenty of drinks selection but quite pricey (I guess to be expected in Oxford city centre). Didn't have food so can't comment on that. Would recommend for a couple of drinks and then move onto the next place so it's not too expensive overall.

We held a 40th birthday party in the upstairs area of the Malt House yesterday and it was absolutely brilliant. The Malt House team had set up the area perfectly, clearing an area for ballon arch and numbers, putting up photos running along the whole of the upstairs and they had provided some bonus birthday photo props so it was all set up and ready for us on arrival. Everyone commented on how delicious the food was and there was plenty to go around so really good portion sizes. Special thanks to Reena who was quick to respond to all of my emails and helped organise the day with me. We also announced some baby news and the team surprised us with a card and a congratulatory prosecco and nosecco which was a lovely personal touch.

Fast lunch whose good staff is polite and good atmosphere

Really nice atmosphere Great view from the balcony

Lee was amazing, top bloke and great manager! Honestly made our trip so perfect. He went absolutely above and beyond. Cannot fault him.

The manager Lee was so attentive, he really made our visit super special. Very good prices for Brindley Place especially the wine

£8+ for soda and lime cordial and a lager shandy. Didn’t think anything of it at the time, but on reflection, disgraceful

Great afternoon and staff friendly lovely food before take that concert celebrating my bestie 50th highly recommend

The bar maid who served us needs to learn some manners and not get upset when someone asks if they can have a J2O in a glass with ice

After some confusion over if we could get a table we sat upstairs Nice atmosphere inside the pub, very clean and dog friendly Food was excellent and service was quick would recommend

Food mediocre, plenty of variation when it comes to beer, service ok. Close to concert arena which is why most people come here. Food expensive for what you get.

Lovely place been there couple of times for food before a concert. Always great staff and food always cooked fresh . Good value for money

Very busy, loud friendly pub. We sat outside as too loud for us inside. Great food, good service from friendly polite staff.

A pleasant couple of hours here with good food and drinks. It was extremely busy but we didn't wait very long for our meals.

We booked here for a Sunday roast dinner & on arrival we were told its just the meals shown on the menu. We settled on the steak & ale pie with chips & peas. My wife's pie didn't contain much meat, which didn't please her as she was looking forward to a Sunday roast.

Would like to say how pleasant the staff were yesterday. You were so busy but the gentleman who took our order at the bar even though with long ques was extremely helpful polite and made sure order was corrrect so nice to see. A lovely place and highly recommend thank you.

Food bad. Fries tasted days old. Mac n cheese from a can or box. Very much bad pub food. Tables dirty. Server grumpy. Would not respond when we thanked her for finally wiping our table down.

Friendly people. Good food. With the walk. Nice view.

Adorable little pub right by the canal. Not had a chance to try the food but plenty of drink options, especially on a warm evening, plenty of seating outside too. You can also order/pay through the Greene King app (when it’s not too busy) which makes it a lot more convenient. My only suggestion would be to allocate non-smoking areas when sitting outside as we kept getting smoked from every angle, no matter where we sat.

I am not sure if this is a regular thing but this was an event thing. We arrived pretty early before it got super busy. We placed 2 ordered to our table on the app. First off on the food menu if something was blocked off then it was out of stock but they didn't do that to the drinks menu, so when something was out of stock the person who came over explained and I changed it but she was so rude about it! Her attitude was awful! Food wise, as I said 2 orders were placed. I had the mac and cheese and my sister had the tapas (this was one order). The mac and cheese was 100% out of a can with little extra cheese added to it. It was small and awful for the price. My sisters tapas was worse! Half was cold and the main thing, the halloumi was cooked either with fish batter or in the same oil. So much so, my sister was convinced she ate a fish goujon. I asked them to check and they said it wasn't. I'm a vegetarian and did not feel safe eating that halloumi!!! When they delivered the first lot of food they said we will be back with your other bit in a moment. 20 minutes later my sister and I had finished and we had to ask someone. My niece ordered the kids pasta and she couldn't eat it. The pasta had clearly been sitting in warm water and it was soggy and over cooked. She did get complimentary ice cream though. The burger my SIL had was fine. Although the best thing was the chips. Wouldn't go again!

Decent venue. Menu was varied although a lot of choices were missing. Busy enough and a nice atmosphere.

Lovely meal totally recommend the fish and chips piping hot and really generous. Staff really friendly and a nice atmosphere felt very comfortable

Bartender asked quiet loudly what time are we shutting seamed that she didn't want to be their on a bank holiday Monday! Pub is nice and a good drink selection didn't eat their.

We went for a few drinks as it was a nice day. Service was quick and atmosphere good.

A lovely looking place from outside and in. Sadly we were really disappointed by the food. The steak and ale pie sounded amazing but had too much pastry, just a little bad quality meat and seemed like it was probably warmed in the microwave. The sausages weren’t good either. This could be such a great place if they pick up the food quality so I hope they take note on the reviews and improve on that front.
