Estábamos en el ICC para una presentación en el Symphony Hall antes de entrar pensamos que tomaríamos un café en Oak Kitchen, desafortunadamente no tienen café DeCaff, así que optamos por una taza de té que venía en una taza de plástico con bolsa de té y 2. 30 por taza, pensé que era un poco caro, el té muy promedio Lo único bueno fue que era conveniente para el Symphony Hall.

I visited The Oak Kitchen yesterday 26/03/2019 during a conference. The staff were friendly and efficient, however, I needed a Vegan meal and there wasn't any choice on your menu apart from some tacos with guacamole, pickled red cabbage and cauliflower with paprika. Along with this was a rather burnt looking sweet potato wedge and about a quarter of sweetcorn on the cob. Whoever sanctioned this as a main meal needs to look at the Trades Descriptions Act as it was far from what I would consider a meal. The whole thing (apart from looking very sparse on a huge rectangular enamel dish), was just about edible, with no taste whatsoever. My friend, who paid for the meal had a substantial-looking plate of fish and chips. She also said it was bland and tasteless. We only ate our food because we had medication to take. We both agreed that the meals were bland and far below our expectations. I did initially want to have the vegetarian sweet potato curry but was told by the cashier that it wasn't vegan as it contained dairy products so I ended up with a cold snack instead of a hot meal. In 2019, I am sure that there could be a better and more varied choice for vegans. There wasn't an option for side orders like salad or chips so only meals could be ordered. I don't think that my meal was worth £10.50. There was only a drizzle of avocado. The pickled cabbage wasn't picked. It just tasted like sugar and a sprinkle of vinegar had been added to chunky sliced red cabbage. The cauliflower (the few that they were) we barely cooked and cold and apart from looking a funny brownish colour, I couldn't taste any paprika. This wasn't satisfying as a meal or filling. Luckily for me, there was no vegan cakes or puddings on the menu.

Mi madre y yo tomamos tazas de té. No había tazas de porcelana y los tés en vasos desechables eran 2. 50 cada uno. El lugar estaba tan alejado de la sala de conciertos y me decepcionó mucho tener que usar vasos desechables. No había excusa para eso: estaban sirviendo comidas calientes en platos adecuados.

Cuando la cocina de Oak estaba situada donde Starbucks ahora se encuentra en el ICC, se sirvió comida y bebida recién preparada con la vajilla adecuada. Ya no más. A menudo comía su sopa que se servía en tazones con semillas y crutones para decorar, un bollo de pan y mantequilla en un plato para 4. 50. No es barato, pero siempre sabroso. El té y el café se servían en tazas con platillos. Dado que se ha movido para dar paso a Starbucks, ahora se está sirviendo demasiado en contenedores desechables no reciclables, incluidas bebidas calientes, una práctica que se está descontinuando en la mayoría de los establecimientos de 'comer en' Sin embargo, ayer pedí sopa y se sirvió en una taza pequeña, desechable, no reciclable, con una bandeja de cartón tonta para el panecillo y la mantequilla. No había crutones o semillas para decorar y el precio para esto era todavía 4. 50. Cuando le pregunté al miembro del personal acerca de la falta de un plato de sopa adecuado, que sabía que tenían, ¡me dijeron que el chef no los estaba usando debido al lavado! Como establecimiento de restauración creo que esta es una excusa inaceptable. Señalé que las comidas principales se servían en platos adecuados que debían lavarse junto con todos los cubiertos de metal. Teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría de las personas estaban comiendo las comidas principales en lugar de la sopa, no habría pensado que el lavado de unos cuantos tazones de sopa causaría un gran problema con el lavado, especialmente porque estamos hablando de un lugar donde "comemos". Nunca he estado en otra cafetería / restaurante y serví comida con vajilla desechable cuando comía. Seguramente, dado que la campaña para reducir el uso de vasos desechables no reciclables, etc. ha sido tan prominente en la prensa, esta no es una decisión respetuosa con el medio ambiente y es una manera deficiente de servir los alimentos.

Esperé 35 minutos para recibir comida en este establecimiento. Tuviste que hacer cola para hacer un pedido, por lo que también tardaste 15 minutos. Nos recibieron con una hamburguesa de halloumi y champiñones, menos los champiñones. No nos informaron sobre la falta de setas. La hamburguesa de pollo era sosa y no tenía nada de especial. Claramente, los chips se habían pegado en la freidora y estaban crudos en el medio. Era demasiado difícil llamar la atención del personal y no había controles. Por favor traiga un almuerzo para llevar o morir de hambre. No valió la pena en absoluto.

I don't usually expect much from self service restaurants at exhibitions but the Oak Kitchen is the exception. I am in my 70's and disabled and my son helps with my care. Some things improve the experience for the disabled. For example wide aisles for wheelchair access, friendly helpful staff and pre-prepared food such as sandwiches at wheelchair height where I can see them before selecting my choice or being given what someone else has chosen for me. This restaurant had clearly thought out the needs of the disabled customer. There was an extremely helpful young woman on the checkout tills who seemed always to be smiling even though I had difficulty getting money from my purse. The food was not unduly expensive and I accept that many people visiting classic car shows seem to expect 1950's prices. The quality was good and the food well prepared. This is the standard the disabled should expect everywhere but is sadly lacking in the UK. Well done Oak Kitchen you added to and excellent visitor experience.

We both had fish and chips - probably amongst the worst we've ever had. The fish was rubbery, thin and grey-brown; the batter was over cooked. The chips were quite limp and all was greasy. The price was an excessive £11.50 each. Never again!!

Went to the caravan show and didn’t bring my usual picnic. Meal was expensive for what it was but it was hot and freshly prepared. Next show I will be better prepared.

Fuimos a este restaurante por su proximidad al Symphony Hall. La comida era aceptable, pero la elección es muy limitada; no había ensalada de ningún tipo en una calurosa noche de verano. Es autoservicio, pero la persona detrás de la caja registradora fue amable y servicial. Teníamos lasaña, versiones vegetales y de ternera. Agradable, pero servido con cuñas de patatas cansadas y nada más. 10 una cabeza parecía caro para lo que estaba en oferta y el entorno funcional más que atractivo. En retrospectiva, habría sido mejor ir a uno de los restaurantes en el complejo The Canalside.

Fui a uno de los puntos de venta de Oak Kitchen mientras visitaba una exposición en el NEC. Los precios eran más altos que pagarías en High Street, pero luego éramos una audiencia cautiva. Para mí, la unidad no era lo suficientemente grande para el tamaño de la sala de exposiciones. Más de la mitad del espacio en el restaurante estaba ocupado con mostradores para servir, mostradores de autoservicio y cajas. No había lugares lo suficientemente cerca para sentarse una vez que había comprado su comida.En retrospectiva, debería haber salido de la exposición a uno de los puntos de venta de alimentos conocidos en el área pública del NEC.

Visité ayer y hoy mientras estaba en la feria de primavera. La dama en la caja era una joya. Muy trabajador y muy amable. La comida era excelente, tanto el pollo al horno en una cama de puerros y el bistec, en hierbas y pan de ajo verdaderamente delicioso.

Decidimos tener una comida evento comprobar aquí la semana pasada. La comida estaba caliente y se sirve en platos calientes. El precio era promedio para el centro de Birmingham y si tienes prisa como nosotros, comiendo y está listo para ver el espectáculo de 30 minutos es una verdadera ventaja. Usted no quiere visitar un restaurante y siempre mirando el reloj. El único inconveniente es que te tienes que comer, está en un lugar muy público y realmente necesita mirar como está al lado de un Starbucks, que tiene más espacio de lo que realmente necesita.

Quick service food tasty but please £11.25 for fish and chips??? Not a michelin star restaurant. Tiny square of bread pudding over £3. People already pay alot of money for the events tickets without needing expensive add o s.

Good, helpful, cheerful, fast counter service, room to sit down when others are full, good prices, and proper café food instead of the expensive trendy rubbish available at other franchises. Really glad I chose to eat here, can recommend !

Cold chips Cold mushy peas Cold beer battered cod As there were only baked potatoes (with one topping option) and beer battered cod on the menu how difficult is this to serve at a reasonable temperature. At least the refund was processed OK.

Me decidí a comer en el restaurante de cocina de roble en el ICC, Birmingham, ya que tenía un relativamente corto tiempo para llenar antes de un concierto. La comida fue muy decepcionante, sin embargo. El salmón bien pero fue probado cajún tibio. Las patatas gratinado no fueron lo suficientemente caliente y tenía también un sabor aceitosa y las verduras estaban frías. Lo reporté al director, que dijo que era lo siento la comida insatisfactoria, pero no estoy en posibilidades de comer allí.

The Oak Kitchen restaurant is convenient for anyone attending an event at the ICC. It can be a bit cold with the adjacent throroughfare and the doors always opening at each end of the mall. On the plus side the food is generally good.

Take your own packed lunch folks, unless you are happy to pay almost £8.00 for a Meal Deal that's usually £2.00 in a supermarket. How they can charge that for a sarnie, a bottle of Diet Coke and a bag of crisps is jaw-droppingly unbelievable.

En general, la comida es generalmente bien y una gran variedad de opciones disponibles, incluyendo una sopa diaria. Un poco caro para lo que es, - 6-7 libras por un patatas? -y el personal son un poco amargo, excepto para los jóvenes, -posiblemente estudiantes?- personal,...

Probablemente uno de los peores sitios en los que me he alojado. Llamado en última noche antes del concierto, la carne que presumir, hubiera sido mejor clavado en la suela de un para obstruir. Las verduras estaban cansados y cocinada, el chico que sirve la comida habían perdido la voluntad de vivir, mis patatas de la chaqueta estaba fría. En general, fue una experiencia muy negativa. Al intentar encontrar un gerente/supervisor, me entregó un › ¿cómo' formulario. Bien, le diré cómo lo hizo, mal, muy mal. El ICC Prestige Birmingham es un lugar, y el roble cocina hace que no favorece.

Popped in here a couple of times for lunch as you generally can get a seat. Staff always helpful when using the self service drinks machines. Food looks basic but nice and other cookies and the like available. Prices reasonable in comparison to other venues.

My friend and I were looking for somewhere to eat close to the REP Theatre as we were attending the matinee performance. We had passed the Oak Kitchen on many occasions, so has we were short of time we thought we would have a look. We decided to have jacket potatoes, and what a great decision we made, the best jackets I have tasted while eating out, the skins were well seasoned and the potatoes were perfectly cooked, the salmon filling was plentiful and flavoursome and was served with a small salad. My friend had the red Leicester cheese with spring onion and she was delighted. Will definitely visit again, a bargain at £5.95 each.

I have been a regular customer for a long time, years actually, and I usually have the same thing, small kebab meat and chips with salad. After today's visit I won't be back. There was a fresh kebab meat cooking, but they chose to scrape out the last sessions scrapings of overcooked and burnt meat from a can at the back, which should have been binned. I vote with my feet. I did eat the chips and not very fresh salad but binned the meat. Worst £4.80 I have ever spent.

The worst GP ever - receptionists are very invasive of your privacy and want to ask you what your condition is before they book an appointment and then they tell you to make a e-online consultation because they cannot book you for an appointment, then they don’t book you an appointment they just say our systems are down! I am in a critical condition and this is. The treatment I get - worse GP in my life do nottttt come here
