Pane & Vino in Birmingham

Food is very good, decor could be a bit warmer, bit cosier,

Beautiful food, the best calamari I've ever tasted. Felt like we were sitting in a restaurant that you find when you venture down the side streets of Venice! Definitely recommend 👌

A hidden gem food and service amazing do not come to Birmingham without trying here will 100% be back

Best restaurant so far. Great customer service. The food was outstanding. Highly recommended to everyone.

the food here is absolutely stunning! proper authentic Italian food. Our server Sandro was so friendly and helpful, he made our night even more special!

Incredible experience It feels like you have been teleported to Italy as soon as you step into the restaurant. The head chef is a gem of a person, super caring and extremely lovely, always welcomes you in with a big smile on his face. Me and my friends would always schedule our group dinners/lunches at pane e vino strictly due to how lovely and personable the service is. Unfortunately I can no longer visit the restaurant as I have moved countries but it’ll always have a special place in my heart for making me feel like home even when so far away from my home country!

The place is an absolute hidden gem, with true italian dishes and affordable prices! The service is also very good. Definitely recommend it

Lovely little cafe/restaurant, cosy atmosphere, great service and tasty Italian food

today me and my boyfriend went pane &vino my birthday food was so nice good steve and frances

Great food. Friendly atmosphere.

What a hidden Gem (almost don’t want to share) fabulous food, hot and fresh from the kitchen and a beautiful taste of traditional Italy. Waitress was great and full of knowledge of the food and very welcoming. Will definitely be returning

I was looking for somewhere different to celebrate my husband's birthday and our wedding anniversary..we hadn't had Italian food in ages. What an absolute gem this restaurant is. The service and food was excellent. I loved the unassuming atmosphere. We will definitely come back and bring some friends.

Went here for the first time recently and the staff were very accomodating as we were running slightly late. The staff were great. The pizza was really nice and reminded me of Your Flamingo in Boldmere with the semolina crust. The pasta dish was lovely. Would definitely go back.

Our friend introduced us to this lovely restaurant. Food delicious.

Alomst unbelievable to find such wonderful and genuine Italian cuisine in this location!

Excellent food. Really authentic Itaian in the heart of Erdington. Great selection & passionate description of specials Very busy waitress does very well to look after everybody. A must try if you like italian food. Will be back.

Absolutely amazing ! Fantastic food, brilliant service. My new favourite restaurant can't wait to get back there.

Wonderful staff, Incredible food, Great atmosphere, I will definitely be booking again. 6 stars

pizza isn't worth £13. Nice staff

Amazing little restaurant around the corner! Love the new summer terrace, guys do amazing job on the menu and specialities 💜 Food and wine are the best, always come back for a burrata 👌

What an amazing gem of a place. Food and service great and you can tell their knowledgeable of italian food, and passion for it, is contagious.

One of the best Italian restaurant outside Italy! I ordered their spaghetti alle vongole, i'm telling you its beyond my expectation! They use fresh pasta and other fresh ingredients you can tell that easily. Small nice local restaurant, the host was so friendly and show us wide knowledge of italian cuisine. I've been to varieties of Michelin Star restaurants but their warmth and approach to their clients was above and beyond. Love it, definitely come back soon!

Excellent antipasti, subpar ribeye steak (overcooked in the usual English way) excellent espresso. The pasta and risotto enjoyed by the rest of our party looked amazing. Hope to visit again and choose more wisely.

First visit for a birthday celebration on recommendation. Have to say food was amazing although portions were a little on the small side for the price. Evening started off lovely however as the evening progressed with only one person serving we were left waiting. We asked for the dessert menu and instead of serving us another table of 7 that arrived were given attention. This annoyed us greatly. A friend asked if our birthday cake could be served as we were pressed for time and despite 3 reminders this was not served. We left very disappointed. Also once the other party arrived it was very crammed and a friend who has a disability found it very difficult to get out to go to the toilet. I wonder if the place meets H&S regulations? Pity really will not be returning anytime soon as evening was spoiled however food was excellent.

Have driven past this place several times and finally tried it today. I absolutely loved it; it’s small, quirky, authentic, proudly independent and the food was delicious. The service from our waitress was amazing too. It was such a refreshing change from all the disappointing chain restaurants and we all left feeling really happy at finding this little gem!

Great little restaurant! The food was amazing and the service was excellent; the server took time to go through all of the specials with us, in detail, which was really helpful. Will definitely be visiting again.

Lots of people have been talking about this place, thought we would give it a good. Food was so tasty, great value and the service spot on. We will be back!

Sunday lunch, food is exceptional in a charming small restaurant. The maitre d, is exceptionally helpful, explaining the differences in the food choices. Will definitely be teturning

Good evening, an amazing and familiar place ,with delicious food and polite staff...Thank you a lot for the unic memories 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🦶🦶

Great Alfresco dining experience with lovely Italian cuisine

Really nice experience. Second time here. The staff and service was immense.

Such an amazing restaurant! Serving the most authentic Italian food you can get outside of Italy, Pane & Vino constantly hit it out of the park with their dishes. Staff always go above and beyond to make sure guests are well looked after and are extremely friendly. Would highly recommend, even if you have to travel for it, it’s worth dining at Pane & Vino

The best carbonara and arrabiata ever. We were driving from London and stumbled upon this gem. What lovely service too.

Erdington hidden gem. There is no point to going to city center. We were all delighted not only with the delicious dishes but also with the friendly service and family atmosphere prevailing there.We will definitely be back soon

Friendly relaxed atmosphere and service. Well worth a visit. Varied menu.

An absolute gem of a restaurant, and I’m sure everyone will agree, in the least expected of areas. Small and intimate, good authentic, honest food. Quality of the wine, food and service this evening was incredible, and the price very reasonable, not a single negative thing to say. The waiter went above and beyond, he was very engaging and attentive. Would recommend and we will certainly be back soon. 10/10

Fantastic little Italian we encountered on our travels, we were seated right away with no booking and enthusiastically guided through the days specials with full explanations of each. The food was transcendent. Absolutely delicious and satisfying, authentic through and through, prices were reasonable also. A small place and not fancy but we all agreed a truly hidden gem.

I know that at some point this restaurant was very good as I have had numerous recommendations including from my Italian family members. Sadly it appears this is a classic case of a restaurant becoming popular and as a result significantly reducing their standards. The experience was nothing but horrifying and frankly if I could have, I would have called the police. The bruschetta was £10 and as evidenced by the photograph it looked like it had been taken out of the bin. Putting lettuce on bruschetta is mind blowing but mouldy brown lettuce was quite literally the tip of the iceberg ! Bread was stale. Amatriciana was also inedible, pasta overdone, slimy, sauce was not fresh, pasta should be bucatini with this dish but if not possible then it at least would have been nice to have cooked the pasta used properly. Whether or not the Guanciale was in date is questionable and it was absolutely revolting. Could not eat it and had to request immediate refund. Avoid.

Requested an immediate refund. Recommended from others, ordered takeaway however really disappointing, tried one bite and discarded. Won't be retuning, it's all long.

Beautiful food, lovely staff! Best meal I've had in AGES! Not rushed and homely!

the interior design is very Italian and the waiter is good

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Very cosy, friendly staff, food was excellent. A definite try.

Where do I start a very loud .overpriced .bad. Service .over rated dead loss I would not recommend to any one

The food is quite basic. Small portions for fairy big prices. We've had Arabiata and carbonara, for mains and few starters such as beef carpaccio and some focaccia which was very dry. I also ordered a glass of Aperol Spritz " cocktail" and got a wine glass of Aperol with a slice of dry orange. The service was quite unprofessional and very slow. The person who served us didn't bring cutlery, napkins or plates and was gone for good 19 mins so we ended up eating with our hands. We asked for the bill twice and nobody came out with the bill then my partner walked inside to pay and one of the waitress cane outside and start wiping the table I was still sitting at.... Overall very poor, if you've to a good Italian restaurant you won't be impressed here.

Visited tonight for a family birthday meal, what a lovely little gem for Erdington! The menu is small but perfectly crafted. Between us we had one of the daily specials and arancini to start, both of which were delightful. The mains were absolutely delicious, we had various pasta dishes (lasagna, nduja and guanciale) and the portion sizes were perfect. Aside from the tiniest of hiccups with one starter being missed (but it was soon brought out!) the service was wonderful. We're really looking forward to visiting again soon!

I have to be honest about this. I was really looking forward to going to this restaurant based on the reviews. Straight away on entering the premises the table layout is 6 people per table. You are literally sitting close to other diners. My daughter is a big girl and had to squeeze into her seating area. She was uncomfortable. The food for me wasn't for me fried and greasy breaded chicken and fries were tiny and greasy. My starter was the Arancine but it had vinegar with it and I didn't enjoy it. Customer service was great but Waiter serving 18 guests is a lot but he still maintained joviality. My daughter enjoyed all her food. We both had different experiences. Still a nice gem in Erdington and it's not in a bad location. Give it a try as it could be a different experience to mine.

I recommend it, delicious food and good service.

Very friendly staff, very tasty food and very warm atmosphere. Small piece of Italy 😊

The best thing in Erdington, great food, amazing chefs and staff Really recommend

Had a lovely lunch with a bottle of wine. The Chef went through all of the specials with us and the service was very good. Really enjoyed it.

Absolutely wonderful meal at Pane & Vino. Delicious food and amazing service. We will definitely be returning. Thank you! ☺️

Amazing food and friendly staff.

Small place, decent food, busy so you might want to book, friendly service.

Wonderful friendly atmosphere and the staff and food were amazing. Will definitely be going back

Lovely place. Very authentic Italian cuisine. Shame about the stale tiramisu but still 9/10

Fabulous snd delicious food, wine and service is excellent. A little gemof a restaurant. Recommend the aruncini, calamari, starters and the carbonara is to die for. Wonderful evening.

Excellent restaurant great staff fabulous food great evening. WELL DONE!

Having been in this eating place for the first time,I ordered spaghetti bolognese and the rest of my family ordered other different dishes; But ordered spaghetti Bol.. that’s is a challenge to itself ,the bolognese wasn’t wat it say ;only minced beef and pork decent taste lack of tomato cooked only with onion and carrots and same herbs, One bruschetta on top of tomato a pile of cos lettuce never seen before The overall food looked very anemic very flat And how can a spaghetti bolognese as a starter cost £11, when a very large chicken and chips is only £12 there is no comparison it was nice experience though Room very cold and apart the name on the door There is lots of space to improve at the moment as Italian they got only wine and the owners

Fantastic meal, food delicious. Best Panna Cotta ever had. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Would highly recommend this little Italian gem in Erdington.

This is such a wonderful place. A hidden gem. The food, atmosphere and especially the staff are amazing.

We ordered carbonara and we got something bitter that definitely is not carbonara and for the price is not worth it. We had to throw it and order somewhere else

Food was unreal, staff were helpful and friendly, well worth a visit and not to expensive either

I had been recommended this place so wanted to see for myself. We were greeted by the staff and shown to our table. This was a tiny table for two and the end of the restaurant. The waiter was very good at explaining the specials board. Within 5 minutes people started walking past us to what we now know was the toilets. It was constant. The view I had was of the stock room. There should be a door to divide this off. Also keeping all your stock by toilets doesn’t seem very hygienic. When our food arrived it was nicely presented. My friend had lasagna which she said was tasteless. I had pizza which was nothing special. We were offered the desert menu we said no and the waiter was pleading with us don’t you just want even one. Not sure if he was on commission . No we didn’t we couldn’t wait to get out.Once he knew we were not going to have one his persona completely changed. I am not sure how it has got such rave reviews as we were certainly not impressed and would not return

Wow! First time here tonight with my husband . From the moment we walked In impeccable Italian welcome and service The food was stunning. Definitely remaindered us of cosy trattoria we experienced in Rome. Cannot believe we have only just recovered this gem. Will definitely be going back. Thank you for this amazing night

This small restaurant is in a row of shops in Gravelly Lane. Parking is on the road or side street nearby Pleasant friendly welcome on arrival. There was a heater near our table which was very acceptable as it was a cold day Service was friendly but very slow - we were there 2 .30 hours which I consider rather long for lunch. Restaurant has approximately 26 covers and was not particularly busy The food was well presented and tasty although the pork dish was rather greasy for my personal choice. Prices were reasonable Sadly having been recommended to this restaurant we were somewhat disappointed but.. possibly worth a second visit as the menu has a good selection

How wonderful it is to be able to go out to dinner and be catapulted into Italy, while remaining in the UK! The Venetian prosecco, the Emilian fettuccine, the Sicilian cannoli and the limoncello at the end of the meal, what a tour of Italy you took me on! Thanks and see you soon 😉

Wonderful food but the interior design could be improved especially the back room. For example..the sockets should not be at head height. The chair legs could have little socks to avoid noise.....

This is a gem of a restaurant. Friendly staff with delicious food. Great place to relax with friends.

Great authentic food and very attentive service. Small cosy atmosphere. Ask for a table in main restaurant Can’t wait to go back

Authentic Italian food of excellent quality at a very reasonable price It is small and not particularly intimate but has its own charm I will be going again and definitely recommend

So I admit it is a small place and they are working with what they have got, but I don’t really want to be standing up from my table to let people by every 5 minutes. Took 35 minutes just to get our drinks and food ordered. Service was all over the place , I got asked how is every thing and we didn’t have any food or drinks to say if it was good. The only saving grace is the food, the pizza and garlic bread were spot on but that’s all I can really say. Wanted to love it but bad service and being very cramp let it down

First time visit off a recommendation, what a great find. The staff were amazing, attentive and obviously proud of their food. A typical trattoria you would expect to find in Italy. A concise menu of all the staples, plus a varied specials menu, great food!! We shall definitely return regularly. Thanks to Yasmin, front of house and Matteo and Kikay? in the kitchen.

My son who lives in Birmingham took us. The best I have tried in Italian cuisine. I have eaten in Italy and it is not always as good as here. The spectacular carbonara.

So lucky this is on my doorstep. The food is crazy good and authentic. The staff are all italian which is lovely to see. Portions are great too !!

Another fantastic meal at Pane and Vino. Hospitality exceptional. Explanations of the specials on offer a refreshing change to other places. If you think you've had good bruschetta with tomatoes.... you haven't tried theirs... it's elevated to another level! Treated like a friend. Wonderful. Thanks to the team.

I found out about this little gem on a news story about the opening of their sister restaurant at The Roundhouse, Birmingham. I was so excited to go! I visited yesterday and the staff member who greeted me (sorry, I didnt get your name) was so lovely, friendly and was a true advocate of the restaurant (and pasdionate about the place and food)! She ran through the menu and specials board with great detail and wonderful personal recommendations! I actually changed my choice of food based upon her recommendations and the food didn’t disappoint and was just delicious as she described! I also ordered food to take away to cook at home, it was just so lovely! I can’t wait to go back and would highly recommend!

Great service and very welcoming.

I live in Erdington and only heard about this restaurant the other day when I read online they were opening a 2nd restaurant in the city centre. I decided to check it out for lunch and I'm so glad I did! It's small and cosy inside with very friendly staff. I started with arrancini balls and garlic ciabatta bun followed by aubergine parmigiana and truffle fries which was very obviously homemade and absolutely delicious. There was a very generous helping of truffles on the fries which you don't normally get. Even though I was full I had to check out their puddings and I had pistachio tart with rum and raisin ice-cream which again was delicious and was the perfect way to end the meal! The lovely waiter also offered us a glass of dessert wine on the house which was a nice touch. What a gem of a place as it looks very unassuming from the outside and I'm so chuffed these guys are doing well. I have already booked to go back next weekend with another friend!

A great, cozy little restaurant. The food was excellent and the service was very attentive. We had three courses and wine, and every dish was delicious. We ate early evening (5pm) and had the place to ourselves but as we were leaving it really started to fill up. Do book, and you are in for a treat.

Really delicious genuinely authentic Italian food, calamari best I've had in years and the truffle parmesan fries to die for. Homemade pasta and yummy sauces totally recommend

This was my first visit to this delightful cosy restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised by the superb food, great choice of specials, the service and the friendly informative front of house. Couldn’t fault anything. Already booked to go back 🙌

To say that the food was delicious is nothing, the food was absolutely amazing and had a truly authentic Italian taste. The staff were so friendly and helpful which made us to feel like home from beginning. Can’t wait to come next time😍 Highly recommended place!!

This is a hidden gem! Authentic Italian from a lovely family. Incredibe!

Best Italian restaurant in Erdington. Service is friendly, fast and very helpful with recommendations. Food is delicious, authentic and at a very good price. Highly recommend if you like Italian food, they deliver too and they are very accommodating to vegetarians so don't be afraid to ask. Most likely the best Italian restaurant in Birmingham.

May I begin with saying how exceptional the chef Matteo is with his craft and expertise....although, as an Italian myself, and on a visit with my momma as a treat, I feel compelled to share my experience as I was, somewhat, disappointed this evening. Initially, we were excited, but on arriving, our pre-booked table was not available, and the area in to which were were seated, was a a little bit cold, granted it is winter, but wearing a coat in a restaurant is not very comforting. New staff seemed rather rude and insisted on playing irritating music throughout the whole evening, when it would be expected to hear authentic Italian songs. There a little touches that need to be made, to create more comfortable surrounding, and out of respect for the wonderful owner and chef, we stayed, although my momma wanted to dine somewhere else, s she was freezing! But, at present, I feel, we will not return due to this evenings' experience, and possibly wait until warmer weather.

Lovely ambience, can't find a negative at all. Highly recommended

This is a really authentic experience. From the moment you enter you are made to feel so welcome. A relaxed atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Excellent food. If you appreciate the Italian experience this place is a must visit.

Fantastic little independent restaurant. Great atmosphere and food. Well be back very soon. Thank you for choosing Erdington.

We love this local place. Visited a few times now. Food is fresh and authentic. Staff are amazing. Highly recommend. See you guys again soon.

Came for a Christmas family meal this evening, sat 9 of us (6 adults 3 children) with no problems. Beautiful food and wonderful service, can’t wait to come back again

Great authentic, rustic Italian food

Absolutely beautiful, ignore these 1 star ratings I’m not sure what the problem was but can easily say it’s the best Italian I’ve ever had…better than what I’ve eaten in Italy tbh and way better than any in city, not even in the same league and couldn’t be if they tried. Not pretentious in the slightest, no rushing and very authentic. Great choice of dishes. Staff are lovely and super knowledgeable, I had clam pasta, we had the sharing platter to start..a board for 4 easily served the 6 adults and 3 kids. Can’t say enough good things for the place and will be back very soon.

I have to say the food is very good, not the “standard” boring crap you expect from “Italian” restaurants, the staff are great too, they really are, but the venue needs addressing, I understand they are moving into the city, so if they keep the same quality of food & staff they could be on to a winner !

Excellent food and service. Not your normal boring display of trying to be authentic Italian actually different dishes, wines and recommendations. First visit will not be the last

Amazing food and service, will be visiting again 👍🏼

Amazing carbonara and cosy atmosphere.

What a little gem! The lady working front of house is very knowledgable about all the home made food and what the chef is cooking. Quality of food was fabulous especially the Calamari and olives to die for. Return visit on the cards asap!!!

What a find!!! Beautiful homemade food, absolute fantastic choices especially the specials and front of house staff that can explain every last detail about the food the chef is cooking. Olives to die for. Will be back asap!!!

The food is really good and the service is very nice and smiling. You can feel like you are in the home of an italian family. 👍
