Rumours Bar And Grill in Solihull

Ordered 2 curry and had 3 little pieces of meat in it ,avoid this place as there are lots more better curry houses local

Food very nice, plus its walking distance 😁

Lovely meal with friends. Promo service Popadoms, curry, rice and naan- delicious

Ordered lamb saagwala and chicken tikka massala, we had just 4 pieces of meat per dish! Mint chutney not like normal chutney, tasted like there was extra flour, not good at all! Only nice thing was chicken pakora and popadam. Will not order again.

Excellent Donna was excellent at serving us and excellent value for money 💰

great place, we were visiting from out of town had a great Saturday night playing pool after a great meal, a big thanks to all the staff and the local crowd who all made us feel very very welcome.

If you want Desi food at a great price this is the place for you. Ordered 2 large mixed grills, masala chips and nans - fantastic quality and great service.

These guys have worst customer service, ordered vegetable samosa sent lamb samosa happend second time in a row now. The women who picks up the phone tell me that the right samosa was sent. This is pathetic customer service by these guys. They do not understand what is customer service and always rude to customers . I am ordering from them from long time but there is always something wrong with their order. I will never order from them again.

Went for father's day Its absolutely gorgeous The staff were lovely The food was amazing Definitely recommend 10 out of 10

Food is really good. Facilities require updating.

Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! Serving staff looked like they were living their best life, food was so amazing; and very reasonably priced too!

High quality food and lovely staff. Would highly recommend.

Nice place ,bar staff rather miserable 🙄

Wipe your feet on way out no way would I order eat in or take away place filthy

Orderd a vegetable karahi. Disappointed the veg used was frozen, tasted old and soggy like the chips. Fish pakora's were squidgy and not very warm in the centre. Overall not an enjoyable meal

Food amazing value for money and didn’t dissapoint best chicken tikka masala I have had in a long time. Staff were great Would recommend

Did not order anything once my sister and I stepped into the bar we ordered a drink looked around bar looked dirty and very grubby. Bar person cleaning then served us once she put her broom down. This bar does not open until late afternoon 4.00pm or there about so this pub should be spick and span for opening times. I visited toilets which was as dirty as the bar area. I would not eat here due to the uncleanness and rude bar person. Never met such a miserable person with no customer skills before. Walked up to bar she was rude and instead of asking what would we like she just said "yeh" Clearly not happy in her role. Sinks in ladies toilets dirty no hand sanitisation toilets looked like they had not been cleaned in weeks. Enough to make my sister and I make a hasty retreat if toilets that bad obviously the food was not going to be up to much. Give this place a miss much better places to eat that are clean and have friendly polite staff.

You gotta try the desi steak and the lamb chops.... BANGING!!!

Wow just been to rumours 1 member of staff serving 8 people dinning. We walked in ordered a drink the lady serving clearly did not enjoy her job. She was very unhappy no customer service or hello nothing. Made us feel unwelcome straight away. went to the bar twice waited 5 mins each time and walked away didn’t get served. We wanted to order food and another drink. the lady who worked could clearly see us waiting but said nothing like be with u in a sec. Over ordered food from royal spice next door and left. Shocking service 1st time there and last time. Wondered why it was empty I think the lady could be the reason. Was looking forward to the food as only heard good things. Shame we never got to try

Cannot rely on quality of food at rumours from one week to the next ordered takeaway today no taste no spices absolutely rubbish will not be using again

Amazing service and the food was so fresh.

Great choice of dishes. Loved it when they customise to your taste. Just request.

Came here one Friday for a bit of grub with the Mrs and Mother. Staff were super friendly and service was quick. Food was nice and spicy and real good quality. Good pint too 😁

Fabulous food and Fabulous service highly recommend. Chefs lovely Ghandu

Food was yum can’t doubt that But with no staff the service is poor, ordered a butter chicken to be told we never paid for one!! Even tho the barmaid read my order back to me ?? The atmosphere was not inviting, seats were all different either ur back was up straight or ur were slumped in, could not enjoy the food despite its taste Wouldn’t return any time soon Don’t waste ur money unless u really are desperate for a cheap curry

DO NOT Cold food, missing food and bad customer service when called the restaurant about the missing items. NO REFUND GIVEN. I was told that the missing food is here to collect if you want it! The idea of a takeaway, is you don’t have to drive or leave the house. Do yourself a favour, and order elsewhere!!

Stunning food as always. large mix grill is a great portion for 2. Fish pakora is top quality. Chicken tikka masala is nice too. Staff are lovely.

This is the worst place I have ever been for food disgusting seating and bar staff have no manners what so ever truly disappointed will.nevef set foot in here again had a veggie Madras the veg was out a frozen pakt and the sauce was like brown wallpaper paste don't waste your money !!!!!

Absolutely the best curry I’ve had in a long time! Found this little gem of a place while working at the NEC, only 10 mins away by car. Staff were lovely and friendly and the food was amazing. Highly recommended

Just eaten here today. Very quiet which was good. Excellent pakora fish, chilli fish starters. Mega mixed grill, was massive. And a fish curry. £30 very reasonable

I had been wanting to go here for a while and I should have come sooner. Staff were polite and very helpful. My family loved the food absolutely nothing to complain about. The seating was also great, nice and spacious.

Food was amazing. Great service Great value for money Thank you!

Very nice and Donna was very helpful food was delicious and hot! Mixed grill was unreal!

Always lovely food, great prices and staff are always lovely and friendly.

Gone down hill since the chef has changed we ordered a balti and a desi lamb both tasted the same and both were full of chilli way too spicy we went ther at 1700 and left at 1900 and not one take out was ordered and yet 6 months ago delivery after delivery so somthing gone wrong somewhere steaks are still great smaller portions of chicken tika mix grills no complaints the management need to open there eyes and change the menu to encourage family's to come in I can't see this place lasting another 6 months as he's not making any profit

Nice food , just like a pub type place nothing lavish … table outdated , drinks are good cocktails and shots

Food was stone cold , phone staff are useless wouldn't even offer to re cook my order nor offer a refund stay away from this place !!

So me and my mum and brother decided we would try this place for curry and all I can say is wow 🤩 the food was amazing and fresh , service was outstanding never tried this place before and all I can say is I’ll be going back again. The curry was amazing and delicious and was recommend this place by my brother because he is a delivery driver. Definitely going back soon

The food was amazing,only down point was children running round like it was a playground but that the only bad point

Had a fabulous afternoon at this place don’t be put off by the surroundings and location. The food is amazing large mixed grill and masala chips were so authentic. You have to order the Nan bread the best I’ve ever had. Donna worked so hard she was working behind the bar on her own and coped so well. The football was on just a nice atmosphere. The place is a bit basic but the food was excellent, please don’t judge a book by its cover.

An interesting place with its own charm. Calm and quiet.

Lovely food .......when the chef turns up

Sorry , the food is good but please tell the chefs if meals available at 5pm that they turn up before to serve for 5 not 5.45.

If I could give a minus figure I would .. no customer service at all !! Happy to take your money but don't want to know when there's an issue.. attitude is disgusting!

Our starters were the best I’ve eaten the lamb samosa was huge with just the right blend of spices, the chicken pakora were tasty and moreish We had chicken pathia which was nothing like a chicken pathia no sweet and sour taste whatsoever really bland and disappointing 😭 The chicken tikka masala had tons of sauce it was a bit sweet very orange and mild for my tasting but my 8 year old liked it Vegetable rice was ok and peshwari Nan was full of coconut which we like so not a problem.

We had a takeaway as our usual was closed The samosa’s were some of the best I’ve ever eaten. The chicken pakora was lightly spiced and crispy really enjoyed them The chicken pathia was so disappointing it wasn’t sweet or sour it was really bland. The chicken tikka Masala was very bright in colour and super sweet my 8 year old gave it a thumbs up but not to my taste The peshwari nann was rammed full of coconut which we didn’t mind but less is sometimes more. Vegetable rice was a bit blurgh but ok

The food was on point, service was great, highly recommended for 2 curries 2 sides for £12.99

The whole place is filthy barely ever cleaned. Food taste like sick and bleach due to them not cleaning and when they do they leave half cleaning products in the bowl itself, they touch up staff without consent and allow underage people to drink and offer drugs to customers! place should be shut down

Simply put, it’s a bit of a dog hole. Grubby, all the furnishings are cheap, thrown together with no real care or experience. It just feels odd… very intimidating people hanging around and scantily clad young women too which also just feels weird… clearly drugs are involved and no real cooking expertise from anyone in the kitchen. 2/10 venue, 3/10 staff, 4/10 food. Probably a place just to wash money

From the outside it looks pretty inviting but on entering what looks like a hastily rearranged function room, which I believe it was prior to being a restaurant. There are NO table numbers so on a busy evening heaven knows how they get food orders to correct tables. They seem to prioritise take out orders so we were waiting quite a while for our food despite the restaurant bring very quiet. When our food did arrive I was a tad disappointed, I ordered punjab style fish and chips and was served what looked like a Birds Eye breaded fish fillet and some frozen chips sprinkled with masala spice. My wife's mixed grill looked half decent but again hers side of chips looked like frozen chips. If your thinking of eating here there are better options to be honest

Food is absolutely amazing the food definatly was the best surprise we will definatly be visiting again

Just had a fantastic meal and drink here excellent the best food I've tasted in years. Nice staff and pleasant atmosphere will definitely return.

Very friendly staff good atmosphere Good night out 😜👍

Friendly staff and clientèle, lovely food. Well recommended

We ordered the large mixed grill an extra portion of lamb chops and the rumors special fried rice and everything was perfect. The rice had so much meat and lots of large prawns in honestly would recommend.

Brilliant curries had by all! 2 curries with 2 side dishes each or to share, brilliant price £12.99 for the 2 dishes, drinks cheap too!

Delicious curry 😋 Steak was good too Reasonable priced

Great food and service, and very reasonably priced. Beer was also very good, in a nice pleasant atmosphere

Had a super meal, reasonsbly priced and good service

Where do I start.... food (mix grill) 10/10 hot, flavoursome and tender, the lamb chops just melted in my mouth definitely recommended and I will be coming back again cant wait. The service was spot on couldn't fault anything thank you

The food is and always is spot on and delicious. However we had to wait a very lengthy time for it to come out and could see that alot of takeout orders were being prioritised. The waitress on the other hand is very pleasant and helpful. The pricing of all the food is extremely good!!

Visited for the first ever time and although the decor has not got the typical restaurant style ,we decided to visit and take advantage of the tues-Thurs offer 2 mains and 2 sides for £12.99 . And wow was we pleasantly surprised. We eat out for curries regularly and the food tasted great ! We definitely will be visiting again and cheap pints too . Can’t wait to enjoy the food here again . For it being our first visit ,we were made to feel very welcome and a great relaxed atmosphere too

Came with the family to have a game of pool. Barmaid totally rude and unprofessional and so miserable in her job there was no customer service or friendliness at all. Shame because I drank here many a years ago with a good happy service but won’t be in a rush to come back again!!!

Hired the back room for a wake, very reasonably priced. Room was set up and ready. Staff very helpful and friendly. Would recommend.

Love it…beautiful cooked and felt it in my soul…would all visit when ever in Birmingham

It's not a traditional curry or restaurant experience so don't expect one. The food portions are generous, very reasonably priced and wow so tasty. Just go hungry, you won't be sorry you starved all day.

Good atmosphere and a good mix of people

Went to this place about 3 years ago wasnt that impressed decided to give it a go and see if it was any better. Tbh the service was slow and the food came out bit by bit instead of as one. Have to say the food was really good and it was very cheap. So all in all worth a second visit and I'll definitely return in the future

We've been a few times for family events back room is nice to rent for a small occasion about 40 people. Lady was nice Donna who worked there and very accommodating let us go at 9pm the night before to set the room up for a Christening the day after! Have to say the food is delicious we had the special noodles really nice portion a little small but to be honest I wasn't hungry after so probably the right size! My daughter had chicken tikka she enjoyed it was really sweet but tasted good, nans were fresh and crispy around the edges just the way I like them. We took our own speaker to play music for the christening. Will definitely go back even just to go to the bar and restaurant bar reasonably priced double archers and lemonade, pint of calrling and a coke about £9. Would definitely recommend

Great food. Service needs a tiny bit attention and apart from sports atmosphere needs attention. I loved it my missus did not.

Went for a few pints and a bite to eat, beer prices ok, food fabulous

Pitching well above their weight, great food for a very reasonable price.

First time here it was full watched euro woman's finals food on sale nice atmosphere

Food was epic staff was so helpful and friendly especially Gorgia. Eat here every Thursday now as the family loved it. The lamb curry was beautiful

Food all home cooked from family recipes very good service from bar staff and the chef good night out had dinner there tonight and the food was as good as the first time

the food isnt as nice as it used to be, its almost as if the chefs dont put any care into their work anymore.

First impressions were a little average. Dirty, shabby furniture and fairly empty. We made an order of drinks which was actually a reasonable price. After sitting down for a while we decided to get the food order in. We placed an order of popadoms, starters and mains. This order was put through at 7:15 PM. The popadoms took 40-45 minutes to arrive and we were told “sorry we can’t give you any plates as we don’t have any washed” - we begrudgingly started eating the popadoms with bits dropping everywhere due to them crumbling upon touch and shared small pots of sauce and onion between four. My partner went to the bar to get more drinks and was told by the barmaid that she wishes she could just hang up her apron and walk out. Roll on to 8:35 after asking where the food was and being told to ask the kitchen directly I brought up the fact that people had ordered after us and received all their food before we even had our starters to the staff but was told “we’re following the ticket order it’ll be soon”. The starters arrived about ten minutes after asking and at this point as they were delivered we asked if we could have the mains ASAP. The ‘chicken pakora’ looked odd to the point where even the server asked “erm? Onion bahjie? Or is is pakora” - they were greasy and containing almost no chicken. I watched as three mix grills were put in to the serving hatch with no steam coming off them. I then watched as the kitchen staff proceeded to pour either water or oil over then from a squirty bottle so steam was produced on the hot plate. Mains finally arrived at 9:05PM and it was these exact mix grills. I took one bite of the lamb shish kebab and it was stone cold. I checked with my table and they had similar food. It was. The server checked back with us and asked how the food was, when i informed her it was cold she said “I can see it steaming though” I was mid way from saying I watched what they did to make it steam and she walked off half way through rolling her eyes. Gave up eating, asked for a takeaway bag and just heated it up at home. Was a real shame as the food was actually really nice and enjoyable. Ruined by the fact that the place is heavily short staffed. One person can not serve an entire restaurant on her own and one person can not run the bar on her own. The management need to address these staffing issues. I don’t blame the staff for biting back at responses, they’re at the end of their tether.

Food was spot on! The chicken tikka pathia was so fresh and full of flavour, could really taste all the spices, probably best I've had. Naan breads were also freshly cooked and different to other restaurants, thinner but still more than enough bread and really tasty, you can taste the difference here to other local take aways. My only criticism if I'm being harsh is the chips were slightly dry but chips never really travel well on take aways. Definitley ordering again 👌

Went on google reviews and was not disappointed. Really friendly staff and the food was excellent. From the embroidery sales team.

Awesome place to get some food with the family. Everything we had a nearly one of everything tasted brilliant.

Ordered for delivery and the food portions are half the size you get when eating in, yet the price is the same. Also the Keema Muttar hardly had any meat. Just a load of peas and Tharka with food processed onions. The Lamb in the Lamb Rara was all rubbery and traces of mince in the sauce. The plain Naans were partially undercooked with raw dough in places. The salad portion was pathetic. The only thing was tasty and cooked properly was the Fish Pakoras, but again a child's portion. Pretty ridiculous really, because if I was eating in, you know the complaint would be face to face, hence why the portions are bigger.

Very nice place and reasonable prices

I had to clean the tables myself before we sat. Food took well over an hour and the bar staff were not very welcoming.

Food was really nice. Very hot and plenty of it. Atmosphere wasn’t that great. Only 1 bar staff on who was rushed off her feet but still gave great service. The other lady who I assume was helping in the kitchen and waiting on tables was extremely rude. She approached our table about 15 minutes after receiving the food and asked if we were finished when there was clearly still a lot of food to be eaten. Then when I tried to get her attention after we had finishing she looked at me ignored me and then proceeded to carry on in the kitchen.

Nice food nice beer nice staff...

great staff , nice atmosphere food was outstanding

Nice food nice staff good price...

Ordered chicken tikka masala and It was literally tomato soup with a bit of chicken in. I phoned up and complained and just got laughed at and told to phone back later as the rude woman on the phone didn’t know what she was doing. If you want baby food or food pointing probably it’s a good place to go.

A bit of a shabby place to be fair, but the food is amazing, beautifully cooked, you can see the cooking from your table, always served hot, and plenty of it, and so cheap, best food around

Wow, first time at this place today and all I can say is the food is amazing! Friendly staff and such a great price.

I've been here once, I thought it a little noisy as young kids being vocal and wandering around (as they do 🙄 ,, I'm guessing time of day; around 5pm) , The main /one large room being rather echo'y , which reminded me of my school dining hall, Their drinks prices fairly cheap/fair priced, the food okay though I expected the onion bhaji to be the soft chewy experience instead of the crispy version we had. Their prawn Balti I had was rather nice.

Food amazing staff very helpful and polite good service 10 out of 10

Donna was amazing, she is a one man band . Very hard working to a great standard. Always happy and smiling. Great service every visit. Cheers Donna 👍

Good food ,excellent portions. Beer was OK.

Authentic tasty food,plenty of space,great value for money.

Ordered a large mixed mixed grill takeaway . Obviously since it’s being grilled you’d expect a bit of charring on the food nothing compared to the burnt food I got . I rang them when I saw this and instead of replacing my order they offered me free Masala chips when I order next . Absolutely disgusting don’t waste your time going there

Fantastic food,very reasonable price wise well worth a visit.

Georgia was amazing, food was excellent great service, what a hidden gem. The best pint in the area for sure. Mixed grill was epic

Wow took my business partners out for a curry....food and service was epic, was so surprised. What a hidden gem...bar staff was lovley and the service was 110% georgio was the best 👍👍👍

So much flavour in the mixed grill, service by Georgia was great
