Taste of Pakistan in Birmingham

The food is delicious with very economical prices. The atmosphere of truck style and the shayari written gives different look and makes a good impact. Felt like having food in pakistan. Really liked the idea. A must place to visit to try the food...

Staff is inexperienced and food was just average . Please don’t waste your money and time to go there …

Food was great. We had the traditional Pakistani breakfast, but as it was during the week, not the weekend they did not do the Puri. So we had Rogri Nan instead. Katlama, chana, and Pakistani chai. 👍 👌

I just bought paya curry. The flavor was good, but I suddenly noticed that the curry is full of hairs. The paya wasn’t cleaned properly.

Taste of Pakistan on Ladypool Road is a gem for anyone craving authentic, hearty Pakistani cuisine. The flavors here are rich and traditional, with dishes that taste like they’re straight from a Pakistani home kitchen. Their lamb karahi is especially good – the meat is tender, cooked in a sauce with just the right amount of spice and depth. Paired with freshly baked naan, it’s a comfort food experience that’s hard to beat. The chicken biryani is also flavorful, with aromatic rice and a nice blend of spices that aren’t too overpowering. The setting is modest but cozy, and the service is efficient and friendly. The staff are attentive and make sure you have everything you need without being intrusive. If you’re looking for an authentic Pakistani dining experience in Birmingham, Taste of Pakistan is worth a visit!

First day I had their chicken pilau rice was really nice I think it was fresh. Today I bought again, smell coming out like yesterday leftover really bad smell. Please sort this out guys. Thanks

Good Pakistani food and family environment

Great halwa puri breakfast and chai. Really good vegetable pakoras. Parking is hard to get on the street, very busy area, but there's a car park right in front, and one down the road.

Have tried everything from here from the breakfast to the sweet dishes to tea and I can definitely say they serve amazing food and top quality for sure

A pure taste of Pakistan. My Favourite is flooda if weather is hot and Kulfi taste exactly like in pakistan. Breakfast is lovel, tried few items from menu and couldn't fault at all. Fuel up yourself before you start your day with their Breakfast.

This place has lots of lovely sweet and savoury snacks as well as meals

Not as good as it used to be. Recently tried the nihari was full of spice and the meat was very hard. Also tried the new cheesecake tbey had on menu, it was mouldy! Would not recommend now

Desi style Good and tasty food

Amazing traditional food! You can have breakfast, Lunch and dinner here. A must visit!

Thanks for serving good food. Enjoyed the food. Very cooperative staff. Place to prayer also. Unfortunately this only thing I didn't lke is music what's the point to have music when you have already gr8 food. Taste of Pakistan u don't need music. Don't worry Allah will bring barakah in your business.

Excellent breakfast channa, puri, halwa and tea perfect.

Meat was hard looked like it’s mutton not lamb, some naans were undercooked and some over cooked, halwa was nice, overall not satisfied.

Lovely little cafe style restaurant. The food speaks for itself. 10/10

We stopped to have some desi halwa puri with channa and ended up with a bad tummy. I would avoid i have never had the worse food poisoning in my life. My tummy was crying with sickness 😷

Amazing little shop. Their falooda is one of the best and we specifically go here just for that.

We have dinner last night at the restaurant and having the symptoms of abdominal pain and diarrhea. Surely something wrong with the food.

The place has an amazing ambiance, the Pakistan cultural style. The beautiful truck art and the decor is just wow and humble. All of their food was very nice and fresh. Kulfi is just pure fantastic. Falooda is superb too. Tried their gulab jamun as well and it was lovely. They also have paan. This place is a must to visit when you are in Birmingham. It was recommended by a friend and our experience was great. I would definitely recommend this place. It will be my must to visit whenever I am in Birmingham

Nihari is a bit expensive. 12£ . The meat quality was not good.

Food taste was not as good as expected.

Don’t think it’s same as London one. It’s totally different but their sitting atmosphere is good. Food was Okayish.

Very Good… most things taste very authentic… we tried, Halwa, cholay, pai, Nihari, Haleem, Desi tea, kulcha naan, purée, All very very good. God bless.

Pakistani Sweet and savoury ! Falooda 7.5/10, Sweets 8/10, Ambiance 8.5/10, Service 9/10. Reasonably priced and open late.

Heard a lot about this place was very disappointed, to start with this place is not very baby friendly unable to tale pushchair upstairs, they provide high chair which does not have a working strap so baby can either fall out or move out, the upstairs is so squashed it's very difficult to move around. The naan we have thing it was called kulchan or something was absolutely delicious, the tea was average the channa was ok, the prata was hard and thin 0ur home made ones are much better, overall poor experience won't be going there again, oh they do take card and the halwa was ok too.

Amazing place for a good tasty Desi breakfast.

I have tried food from this shop few times. Some of them are tastier and some are average taste, bit spicy. Chicken Pastry = 5 stars Chana = 4 stars Puri, Halwa = 3 stars Kachori = 2 stars Katlama = 3 stars

The place looks lovely from outside, plenty of variety and selection to choose from, however, we had ordered a lot and picked up some extras while we were there. We did not enjoy the food we ordered, which was a lamb 1kg handi, seek kebabs, chapli kebabs. The kulcha naans and the chicken pakore were nice but nothing to rave about. I do wish they would taste what they are cooking, a bit of flavour would have been appreciated. For the price we paid, it was not worth it.

Pulao and Kulfi are amazing. The plus point is Panjeeri.

Egg was tasteless Biryani was 5 days old All food is microwaved

Pls do not spend money on ice cream waste of money

I always co.e here for the desi falooda. It's truly amazing. I'm not sure about the rest of the food. I guess you will have to come and check it out . Parking, available across the road, and it's free. I would definitely recommend popping down to try out the falooda at least.

Travelled all the way from London what a waste food was absolutely shocking paratha was so thick halwa tasted disgusting lasi was just pure yoghurt Im absolutely shocked and will never go bk there emty shop no wonder plz don't waste your money or time plenty other shops which taste alot better. Never will i go bk there.

Great customer service and food

I had falooda here the other day but the rubry milk in it was too much sweet. Apart from that atmosphere was good they built it and wrote the poetry like pakistani style awesome.

Very authentic pakistani sweet and snack shop with food items like biryani, etc, as a bonus. Feels like you're inside some Ahmed sweets type shop in pakistan. Crazy variety of mithais.

The turck art is beautiful. Very British Pakistani vibes. Qeema was great. I loved all their rotis. Don’t miss this gem because of bad reviews, try for yourselves first. The table chair layout is a bit tight however + the toilet could be alot nicer.

They have nice desi Pakistani style food. I love interior decoration of restaurant.

Service bit slow forgot my oder twice

Went down from Blackburn and gotta say it was brilliant, the halwa puri was so nice especially the halwa it was so delicious The Lahori falooda was very nice too Just like you get in Lahore The service was good and brother danial Defo worth trying

Good food. Very busy. No parking. Parking on the main road.

We ordered nashta meal. That contains channa, halwa, puri and tea. The food was of terrible quality. No seasoning in channa and halwa. The chai was awful too. The puri was good but overall a waste of money. Very bland food. Would not go there again sadly.

Good food. Taste was good and quality too. The tea needs improvement. Overall a big thumbs up.

Honestly I will never believe online reviews anymore i gave this restaurant a try and that was the perfect thing i did the food was so nice and fresh and the place was very crowdy i was shocked that if the food isnt good why people are waiting in ques😂😂 these pictures are from 2nd time i went

I had desi breakfast over the weekend chana and puri too oily chana no taste no sauce just raw chickpeas from pot puri too oily my hands cover in it tea was okay shame I was looking forward my traditional desi breakfast had food in past no problem samosa sweet etc another over hype up ladypool road busy not that good sorry to say its was just to awful to eat desi dessert traditional sweet were nice but still can be hit and miss latest update chana was very bland no spices paratha was okay used very good Pakistan restaurant standards have drop big time my latest visit boy big mistake again very poor standard chana tasted like came out curry chicken peas tin no flavour to it tea no taste to it drink boiled water definitely not desi chai brother been game 2012 used to be good breakfast not anymore time to find another Pakistani desi breakfast places eating area need to be clean table was dirty big time let down need good breakfast to get me going on busy day no offence what waste of time

A great start to the day. Super breakfast to choose from. Fast service. But still delicious.

Normally would give a 5 star for food, the last visit I was abit disappointed. But normally the food is great

Unfortunately very disappointed after years of coming here from afar. Have been robbed in broad daylight. Menu online says a different price and the price charged is different. I mentioned last time falooda had too much noodle in it instead of rectifying that mistake they overcharged me . Tried to sort this with manager who was argumentative. What a shame

The lacha parathas are exceptional to say the least. The atmosphere gives a clear Pakistani vibe and the authentic interior reminds you of traditional elements from back home. The halwa puris are also absolutely great and just like any best of the best from Pakistan.

This was an amazing experience, their paratah are crispy and crunchy and the deep fried egg was just right for me, lassi and halwa had good taste

The Taste of Pakistan Hotel in Birmingham offers a flavorful journey through Pakistani cuisine. The Sindhi Biryani tantalizes with its aromatic blend of spices, while the Kashmiri Pink Tea provides a soothing accompaniment. The Lamb Karahi bursts with tender meat cooked to perfection, complemented by the Chicken Karahi, though slightly average in comparison. The roti served adds an authentic touch to the meal. At £40, the bill reflects reasonable pricing for the variety offered. Ending on a sweet note, the Rasmalai stands out as a delightful treat. Overall, a satisfying culinary experience with room for improvement in certain dishes.

Even one star is more than the quality of food served. I went there with 3 friends, had naan paratha and channy. All of us are having severe gastritis now with bad abdominal pain nausea and vomiting. Not recommended at all.

Worst food I ever had. I had food poisoning. Not recommended

Very Bad taste of Chana,that completely disgusting taste Puri was ok And I paid £9 for Paya but wasn’t couplet full Paya I’ll never come back in this place again

I took a chance on this place despite the low Google review rating. I'm glad I did. Desi breakfast was served up quickly, with great taste and service.

I wish I could give a zero 🌟 waste of money , not recommended worst experience 😕

I can’t find anything good about this place.

Excilent food , uts my second time but really love all dishes and would like to recomend and wish to go there again and agian

I recently tried some sweets from this place, and I have to say, they were absolutely delicious! I'm not usually a big fan of sweets, but these really won me over. Even though I don't know the name of the sweets in Urdu, I still enjoyed them a lot. I would definitely try them again and recommend them to anyone who loves sweets.

Nice pakistani breakfast with a pakistani vibe... its nice overall

Very busy for breakfast and order was wrong twice, gave up in the end and had what we were given. No told about self catering for tea, so had to go back downstairs and rejoin the queue. The only thing positive was the chickpeas & naans/puris. Hence the 3 stars just for food

Excellent food nd good price nd very friendly staff

I've tried all the restaurants in Ladypool Road (for breakfast). By far, this restaurant hits the spot. Reasonably priced also.

Visited birmingham first time and this was the first place i went to. Ordered nihari with kulcha naan and chana paratha. Nihari stole the show! My mum and dad are quite choosy in-terms of food but she loved nihari so much! Channay was average, could be a bit better taste wise. Paratha was too crispy and just the way i like it. Chaye needs to be bit less sweet though, I didnt know they serve it sweet otherwise would’ve asked them to give unsweetened one. Will definitely go again.

I bought today Roghni nans really nice and thanks staffs and owner is well for given us Pakistan food taste in uk 🇵🇰❤️🇬🇧

We picked up food to open iftaari. Food was lovely, chappli kebab was really amazing. Hubby says katalama needed more chilli..it was fine for me 😀

Always complaint about the food. Quality and quality only please. If owners are reading it, due to good competition around please improve it. Thanks

My experience at Taste of Pakistan in Birmingham was disappointing. The atmosphere lacked warmth, the food was bland and lacking authenticity, and the service was subpar. Overall, I cannot recommend this establishment.

Taste and service is good but there are few things that let us not to buy again from here. 1. If you won’t notice, they will give old food 2. Paya has hair in it twice same experience Advice. 1. Be honest and serve the product which is shown 2. Please serve clean food

Tried the chicken salan and the chicken biryani and samosa. All average, could be better! Decors cute though

Rabri in qulfi falooda was amazing Jalebi was stale Will try a few more things next time

I tried Halwa Puri, Nihari, and samosa chat.

This place has always been serving a great taste and excellent customer service 👌 highly recomend

Food was not good if you are looking for that actual Pakistani taste you won’t get it there.

Had the breakfast special, halwa+channa+ purri (which comes with 3No purri's). Also had omellete with paratha. both come with Tea and it eas absolutely amazing. Definitely will go again, food was super tasty and came quick too.

The place has a cozy vibe. Great traditional atmosphere where you feel comfortable and at home. Food is great. Staff is very friendly.

I've been here a few times and brought a friend from London here who was visiting who absolutely loved it. We got food to share, parathas, halwa puri, cholay, paaye, and tea. Paratha was lovely and flaky, I don't think they use oil to cook it, maybe ghee/butter, but tastes nice. Puri were lovely and crispy, not oil and floppy, as you can get from some places. Loved the halwa not overly sweet, cholay were ok. Paaye were cooked really nice they came off the bone easily. Overall nice, the deco is nice proper Pakistani style painting on walls like you would get on their lorries and trucks. Seating is real Pakistani style. They have a place to pray too. We also bought some Alsi ke panjeeri, gajarela. There is plenty of methai and different types of panjeeri to choose from, curries and snacks.

Kabab Paratha Roll and Mutton Burger with Egg are mouth watering

Absolutely Beautiful food. Nihaari and halwa poori the best. Not a fan of the chai. But service is great staff is wonderful too. Definitely recommended.

The food was amazing, And Beautiful place ,

Friendly people and environment. Freshly done all the food. Seating arrangements very spacious. Truck theme decoration make the environment very vibrant.

Traditional Pakistani food. Nice breakfast....

Excellent taste and place. Nan were fab. Ordered lamb nihari, halwa puri, chana and tea. Chana and tea were okish but overall great breakfast.

I used to love their food and recommend it to everyone but recently I bought their biryani. It was average taste but after we had eaten most if it we noticed lumps of rice with green stuff on it. To our horror this was FUNGUS!!! The biryani had so much fungus rice in it! It’s ok to have average tasting food but what dishonesty to serve stake and poisonous food. Absolutely disgusting. I was thinking in the shop that they have heaps of food in the shop and its 9pm what are they going to do with the leftovers, now I have the answer! NOT RECOMMENDED. Eat less tasty but healthy!

We had such a delicious desi naashta- paratha, omelette, channa, puri halwa and chai. (Also homemade achaar was just incredible) Quick table service, unique and beautiful setting, friendly helpful staff and best food! 10/10 recommended

Very good place for everyone Reminds me of Pakistan every time I eat there with family The decor is outstanding 👏 Food is lovely Recommended to all

Chana taste not nice not properly cooked.take one bite and left below average available in Birmingham. Nan was okay Tea was not good. Paid £6 for rubbish. Not recommend.

Quirky venue. Food just OK. Not expensive.

Very bad Experience They don’t know how to make Paratha will give you normal Roti diped in oil OMG waste of time and money No taste of Chana at all. Will not recommend.

Very nice food and good customer service

If you have been to Birmingham and you are of South Asian heritage and you didn’t try “Taste of Pakistan” then you are not a foodie!!! Their breakfast menu with Paya, Nehari, Halwa, and signature Puri are to die for. Absolute treat, friendly staff, amazing traditional truck or rickshaw decor, and great ambience. Love that place. You will love it too.

Very nice place love their falooda and nashtaa . Service was nice as well specially talking about Sunday morning.Will go again with my family

Amazing food, super tasty and delicious. Very fresh. Enjoyed our food. Thankyou

Serviced me with uncooked omelet and parathas even replacements wasn’t nice

Best place for a desi breakfast in Birmingham - very affordable, great tasting food, large portions, kind and respectful staff. Seating upstairs is great, good decor, can get a little stuffy on a busy weekend morning.

Food was disappointing Patatha was like cardboard

A nice place to enjoy desi food. Good food, good taste, great ambiance
