Starbucks in Birmingham

WELL WHAT AN UNFORGETTABLE DINING EXPERIENCE!!! After an evening out around the bars of Sellyoak we thought a curry would just finish our night off nicely. Just our luck we came across this establishment . It was quite late and we were unsure whether we would still be in time to be served, but ‘unlucky’ for us we were and ‘unfortunately’ it WAS still open. We went in and was eventually greeted by a man in a Woolley hat and coat who told us we could sit wherever we liked mainly because the place was deserted. The decoration and ambiance of the place was pretty close to Delboy and Rodney’s flat in Nelson Madella place. Once seated we was offered the menu and ordered some drinks but the only thing in stock was tap water and we was told we could purchase our drinks at the off licence three doors away. The one and only person who was working in there who was acting as waiter, chef and maitre d proceeded to deliver us an array of poppadoms and sundries (the poppadoms had obviously been cooked hours earlier and were stale and like eating an empty cornflakes box and the sundries were unrecognisable and not fit for human consumption (obviously the left overs from the previous customer who had consumed them because the receipt of their meal was still stuck to the underneath of the dishes). After pondering for several minutes and hoping the next course would improve slightly we settled on a chicken curry, chilli paneer, chips and naan bread. After a good 30mins and lots of banging around in the kitchen, the trolley was wheeled out, we was told unfortunately the chef couldn’t find the paneer and had made us two complementary vegetarian dishes instead, this looked like half a roast potato from last Sundays roast dinner and a piece of unrecognisable meat in some watery juice; this was slapped on the plate along with some illuminous toxic yellow substance (the waiter seemed really pleased with himself like he’d done us a huge favour). Then the chicken curry followed which can only can be described as a watered down tin of pedigree chum finished off with man handled, mauled naan bread which also looked like it had been left over from the previous customers (from about a week ago!!! ). We complained immediately and said we would in no circumstances be touching any of this food as we valued our lives too much and severe gastroenteritis and food poisoning wasn’t how we wanted to finish our evening. We refused to pay and thankfully managed to “get out of there” without having to partake in any Sherratton bushtucker trials!! I really don’t know how this vicinity is still legally allowed to operate and the only benefit it has is its so close to the QE hospital - (so not too far to get treatment after you’ve eaten there!!!) Please AVOID this place at ALL costs the only customer it needs is an environmental health inspector TO CLOSE IT DOWN!!

Looked like a nice restaurant, but the staff member I came across was very rude and essentially ignored my existence. So I left. Would not recommend.

Overly expensive, minimum menu, long delays. Would not recommend.

Unfortunately not a pleasant experience. Ordered popcorn chicken but only recieved the batter no chicken inside. When I reported this to staff she said these were pre purchased and they come pre made. Surely if you charge these extortionate prices you can also order better quality chicken popcorn. Secondly waited a long time for the order to come through which made it an overall poor experience. First and last time I visit this place.

Absolutely disgusting burritos - if you care about your health and food hygiene I would be careful of ordering here! Suspiciously similar staff and packaging etc to wannaburger which seems strange …
