The Birmingham Stable in Birmingham

Popped in on bank holiday Sunday, found a table outside & stood at the door waiting & waiting & waiting…. I saw a guy on the bar & said we’d found a table outside & could I please just grab 2 beers, I wasn’t expecting table service & was willing to pay for the beers there & then. To be asked have you got a booking? I said no & was it ok to grab 2 beers & sit outside. He told me no as we didn’t have a booking, even though plenty of free tables outside with no reserve signs on. Another couple outside said they’d been told the same but then another waiter did let them have some drinks. It was all very bizarre as I was already at the bar, willing to get my own beers & pay & take them outside to our table, even though the guy on the bar was just stood there doing nothing he wouldn’t let us have a drink due to not having a booking. I mean who books in for a beer.??Abrupt & hostile manager (bearded guy) I work in hospitality myself & he clearly needs training on how to talk to customers and he’s clearly losing you trade. Anyway we went round the corner to The railway for a beer, was welcomed and no problems. Would not return to The stables on principle of how we were spoken to by staff.

We went to the stable for a bottomless brunch, the service was brilliant, Georgia was very attentive and had great customer service skills. The food and drinks were flowing during the duration of our time slot and we never had an empty glass! Highly recommend, good food, nice drinks, good service and a nice selection of food/drink. Will return.

Definitely recommend. Great, quick service. Good food.

Massive variety of pizzas and drinks. Excellent service and the pizzas were perfect, not salty either compared to alot of other pizza places.

Tough one to review, as the staff are friendly but no where to be seen once the order is placed. No one really wonders about to see if you need anything, you have to approach the counter for anything more. Although the food seems fresh it takes a fair while to come out to you. It's nice but not amazing. Seeing as it seemed quiet in there I thought it would be out pretty quick, sadly not. For the price of it all for the food you get, its ok. Hence the average rating.

Absolutely lovely place, food was delicious, not too busy as a Thursday night but that's what we wanted. We ended up getting a pepperoni pizza (absolutely lovely base), cheesy garlic bread, homeslaw and tater tots to share between us (it ended up being too much, delicious defeat!) In total we spent about £45 plus a tip which we thought was very reasonable for the amount of food and 2 rounds of drink (2 alcoholic drinks 2 soft drinks)

New tots recipe? Tots not great now. Very sad Mango cider got worse too :(

Best bottomless brunch ever! I love the waitress Georgia she is the best

Joined for the bottomless brunch, absolutely astounded by the service and value for money. £29 per person for a standard bottomless brunch, £8 extra if you want cocktails. Menu attached. Georgia was our waitress and as someone who has tried other bottomless brunches, this was by far the best service. Never waiting for a refill, polite check in's for extra drinks or if everything was ok with the food (which was plenty of it!). Really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere and amazing service. Recommend this to recent couples and group parties. Special thanks to Georgia for being an amazing waitress. Really made our experience special.

A good cider drinking public house with plenty to choose from

Worst pizza I've had in a long time. Under proven and underbaked based. Tasteless.

Food was pretty good, I got the new vegan pizza and I was a little lack luster and a little pricey but not too bad for all intents and purposes. I like the style of the place and the tables and chairs but some other people found the chairs a little hard

We had an amazing time, really enjoyed ourselves. Georgia was amazing, the best service ever. Thank you so much.

Great food, quick and efficient service!

This is a pizza joint and does what it says on the tin. As a non pizza lover, I expected there to be other options but was disappointed with the woeful lack of choice. 1 salad which had goats cheese (I don't like goats cheese), 3 nachos, and 3 man n cheese options. That's it. Couldn't even make a starter combo because the starters were pizza. My nephew ordered the Burger on the dancefloor pizza and really enjoyed it. I ordered the meaty Mac n cheese which turned out to be stone cold (fridge temp) in the middle. This was early, there was hardly anyone else there so now excuse for this. No one came to see if the food was ok so had to go and tell them. To be fair they were then great, they apologised sincerely and took it off the bill. I thought that was it but they brought me a replacement. Unfortunately my nephew had finished eating then so I was sat eating alone. And, sadly, they had heated it so much that the pasta had disintegrated and the meat on top was burnt. To be honest, it wasn't very nice but, given I wasn't paying for it now and we were going to a concert, I couldn't be bothered to say anything again. We finished off by sharing a bus off cheesecake which was delicious. All in all, if you don't like pizza, go somewhere else, especially if you have dietary requirements. Won't be back.

Great place for cider tasting. They had 10 different ones with the possibility to order a tasting board. Ordering and paying was comfortable via QR code at the table.

I walked in here just a couple of minutes before boarding a train from Birmingham new street and was very much In the mood for pizzas. I was a little worried about how long it might take and they didn’t disappoint. I got the BFC which tasted amazing alongside a lovely drink made by Becky . The thin crust pizzas are just gorgeous and your should definitely try!

Great bottomless brunch. Big shout out to Georgia ❤️

Fantastic quick service, and great food, would definitely recommend. Thank you Georgia for making our day out great!

Amazing service Georgia couldn’t do enough for us and she was so good; would definitely recommend and would definitely come back. My first bottomless brunch and the value for money was brilliant. Thank you so much Georgia!!

Had an amazing bottomless brunch on a Saturday served by Georgia! Fab food and continuous drinks! Will 100% recommend, this is our 3 time visiting for a bottomless brunch 🍾

Really enjoyable. Another great place different drinks options, only 5 minutes from New Street. Well worth a visit.

our server georgia was a legend ❤️❤️❤️

Only had drinks but great selection really enjoyed

Was a lovely place. Good really good plenty of options. Decent price too

Have been before (few years ago) and service and food were great, this time it was quite grim. We were brought our drinks by staff holding glasses by the rim, tables were dirty, and there were used women’s sanitary products all over the floor in the ladies toilets.

Bottomless brunch was great value for money. The food was delicious, and they had drinks options for everyone (beer, cider, bubbles, and cocktails). My personal favourite was the candyfloss pink gin. The staff were welcoming and kept us topped up with drinks. Recommend this place,100%.

I haven't been able to enjoy pizza in ages. This was exceptional, and the service was friendly and helpful xx

We came here for a friend’s birthday and we had a great time. The food was really good and the portion sizes were brilliant, we were so full! The saver menu prices were amazing value so we were able to enjoy ourselves without worrying about the price. The Boss Pepperoni pizza, Nearly Naked tater tots, and Sheppy’s Elderflower cider were all delicious. The staff were so friendly which makes such a positive difference to dining experiences.

1st time here , and what a delight, service was friendly, helpful and quick , food was lovely , brilliant veggie/ vegan options, thoroughly lovely place

Wonderful Pizzas, we normally call in for a drink as we are always made welcome by the lovely bar staff in particular Guy, who is always friendly. Weve now tried the pizzas and i would say the best weve ever had , how we have missed out, the lovely chef adam is a very talented chef , best toppings ever. And Adam goes out of his way to welcome us. See you all next week.

Oh. My. God! This has to have been the best pizza I’ve had in years! Fab atmosphere, great service and beer. Did I mention the pizza is awesome? Definitely would go back!

Nice staff,great food&beers.Animated & friendly Few years later, best pizza in town.

A young man with glasses helped me move tables, top bloke. Really good food I recommend the pulled beef pizza.

Beware—they claim to open at 11:30am and will let you make a reservation at this time. But when you turn up they’ll make you stand outside in the rain until 12 saying they aren’t open yet.

Jon, Guy and all the team at the Stables were brilliant hosts for our big work event and ensured the whole thing ran smoothly. There were over 100 guests however that did not seem to faze the team in the slightest who were dancing away with our guests whilst working hard! The food was excellent, all in line with our pre-order, and communication from the team to us was great as it guaranteed the night was exactly how we wanted it. A massive thanks to all the team – we would not hesitate to use The Stables again for our national work events! Thank you, HCB Solicitors.

Great choice of craft beers, good wine and fantastic pizzas. Soooo tasty! Would 100% recommend!!

I can easily see why this place is so popular . Paid a return visit and had a gluten free dairy free meaty pizza, with one of their several types of cider and beer on offer. Staff are enthusiastic to please their customers with pizza as you like it and a good knowledge of the numerous ( probably about 20) types of cider on offer, including flat ciders, draught ciders and bottled cider including the vintage one I tried. The pizza was absolutely fantastic, I’m guessing it may have been better than the regular pizza. Really cool place, and cool customers too. Within stones throw of New Street train station and close to EasyHotel. I’ll absolutely visit again. Great friendly and knowledgeable staff.5/5!!

Great hangout! Love the range of ciders aswell as the cider board. Staff were lovely. Atmosphere was very relaxed but buzzing

Food was amazing and service followed just as well. Soo many ciders.

EDIT Been back, found the tip from a biro in my mouth whilst eating my pizza. No-one came to check on us so had to call someone over, no apology from either of the staff members told, they refunded my pizza, but not anything else my table ordered (where did the rest of the biro go?) or my beer. Said they would find out how it happened but I heard nothing back. Awful. These things happen but this service is appalling. Avoid.

A wide variety of really tasty pizzas and beer-hall style seating for large groups. A great time!

Food was ok. Staff were friendly

It was very busy which is to be expected on a Saturday, but they put the tables so close together we couldn't get out without physically touching the people behind us which wasn't very pleasant. Think they could think more about customer experience than squeezing more tables in to make more money. That made me very anxious. But in terms of the food, that was amazing! I had a vegan pizza and it was the best vegan pizza I've ever had. I really dislike vegan mozzarella and this pizza had an alternative which was vegan burrata which was delicious. Also it was pay before you eat on the app or at the bar, which is great because we could just leave when we were ready. Would recommend for people who don't mind busy spaces.

Mit Pizza hat es nicht viel zu tun. Fertig Produkte, herzlos zubereitet. Küche war unterbesetzt, dies hatte zur Folge, dass es längere Wartezeit gab. Service gleich null, da alles über eine app läuft. Sehr mühsam, registration und so weiter.

Georgia was so lovely taking care of me and my friends. She was very attentive always keeping our table clean and our cups full 🥰

What a great venue to sample some delicious ciders. We started with the sample paddle, then ordered a pint of Lilley's Bee Sting and a Cockeyed Cider Co Monkey Mango. We shared a Hawaiian Five-Oh pizza, Aioli Want To Be With You tatter tots and a house salad - all very tasty choices. This place has a great vibe, great for small or large groups. Well located, close to the train station.

Fantastic quality Pizza 🍕 (Yum Yum) the base is thin and crunchy and as good as a stone oven. Wonderful sides and you do not have to spend 1/2 an hour going through choices on the menu. Wonderful selection of beers 🍻 Great first time experience thank you 🥰

Loads of room for a big group, great pizza, and reasonably priced drinks too. The cider tasting board is great!

Beautiful food and great staff. Will go back

Fairly priced good quality food. Great location in town. Have visited multiple occasions and this place never fails to deliver. Always clean always courteous

Met up with work colleagues for a bite to eat..not much on the menu, apart from pizzas. Plenty of seating areas, tables large enough to accommodate large groups of people.

Decent food - I had the Mac and cheese, although friends’ pizza looked underwhelming and barely cooked. Service was poor - young male waiter just hung around chatting to the chefs. Was hard to get his attention and he only took half our plates away, leaving us with plates for at least 20 mins. Unlikely to come again.

Quick coffee here. Wish I'd had time to attack the menu.

I must say, our outing at the stable was an absolute delight! From start to finish, everything was simply perfect, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly by the staff, setting the tone for what would be an incredible evening. Let's start with the pizza - oh my goodness, it was heavenly! The flavors were rich and authentic, and each bite was a burst of pure deliciousness. Every slice was made to perfection. I could tell that the ingredients were fresh, and the crust was just the right amount of crispy and chewy. It's no exaggeration to say that this was some of the best pizza I've ever had! And the dessert! I'm still dreaming about it. The sweet treats were a delightful indulgence that rounded off the meal perfectly. The rich and gooey chocolate brownie with the smooth ice cream and delicious caramel sauce was pure decadence. I must commend the staff for their excellent service throughout the entire evening. They were attentive, friendly, and always had a smile on their faces. Our glasses were never empty with those bottomless drinks, and they made sure we had everything we needed to make our time there enjoyable. It's clear that the staff takes great pride in their work, and it made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I can't thank the stable enough for providing us with such a fantastic outing. The combination of mouthwatering pizza, delectable desserts, and top-notch service made for an unforgettable evening. I will definitely be recommending this place to all my friends and family, and I can't wait to come back for another delightful experience. Kudos to the entire team for their hard work and dedication in creating such a wonderful dining experience

Had a great time, atmosphere and service was good. The pizza was ok, the crust was quite crispy and not spongy and tended to break apart quite easily. I thought the toppings were good but there wasn't enough cheese for my liking and there was sauce up to the edge of the pizza in places which I thought was a little careless. The vibe was nice and it felt quite edgy and cool but the food wasn't great and some things on the menu weren't available. Unlikely to go back here when I'd rather the food from a different pizza chain

Me and my friend visited the Stable for a bottomless lunch. Our Waitress was very friendly and helpful. We were looking forward to trying the Pizzas, but we were left disappointed. It tasted no better than a supermarket Pizza and the toppings were sparse. I wouldn’t visit again.

Best pizza we've had in the UK!

Great beer, didn't have anything to eat but the food looked good.

Quiet when I went in but really nice. Went in hoping to get a pie as stated outside but they don't do them anymore 😕 yummy pizza though. BBQ base not very bbqy

Great selection of draught ciders, the pizza bases are SO good. Not my first visit and it won't be my last.

I went to The Stable with a friend before going to the theatre on a relatively quiet Thursday evening. We had 90 minutes to eat and enjoy a drink - plenty of time, we thought! Unfortunately we waited 50 minutes for our pizzas, with absolutely no apology for the wait. We spotted other people complain about the temperature of their food after such a long wait as well - the tater tots I ordered had clearly not been cooked to order, and my pizza wasn't exactly warm in all honesty. Why wasn't it warm? I could see the people and I could see the ovens - was my food waiting on the side? Because after waiting that long, I want that pizza to be piping hot! The place wasn't especially busy either, so that can't be blamed - as we left, some patrons asked for their pizza to be boxed to take away as they had run out of time. Not exactly surprising after waiting close to an hour! Overall, a really disappointing experience. The pizza was mediocre at best (it's more like a dry cracker base, but not in a Neopolitan pizza way - just thin and dry, like a matzo) and the toppings aren't well cooked or generous. The flavours are creative but badly executed. The customer service was just "fine"; after waiting that long I expected an apology at the very least - nothing. But when you are paying 40 quid for drinks and food, I would expect it to be a bit better on both levels. Tbh, I'm surprised the reviews are so positive - maybe I've been spoiled with good pizza! I wouldn't bother going again.

Delicious Mac n cheese (hey pesto 👌🏻)

amazing place, friendly staff and great pizza

Really nice pizzas, good gluten free and veggie options.

Дороговато, но вкусно и хороший сервис+ приятная атмосфера в заведении!

🍕 where really tasty and fresh. Not a lot to choose from regarding pizzas, but i don't mind that because this way they are freshly made for sure. Tater tots where nice a well 😋 nice beers to choose from. I had the Jubel peach beer 🍑 🍺 which was very nice and refreshing.

Popped in before fulham away at villa. Fantastic food and beer choice, and really affordable. Served by a guy with sleeve tattoos who was so nice and polite. Will definitely stop by next time I’m in Birmingham.

Overpriced for lunch time and very small pizza

Great pizza. Coleslaw is a bit pricey at £4.75 but was nice. Cider is decent. Have to order online but easy enough. Been twice now.

Food was excellent and Rebecca who served us was such a brilliant host.

Yummy pizzas, great service, would highly recommend

Had a salad as have a sourdough allergy. Beautiful meal

No cheese on the pizza it tasted terrible couldnt eat it, would not return,

Good pizza, dog friendly and a nice selection of drinks. The garlic bread needs work though, undercooked and not very garlicky.

Loved the pizzas and service was super quick and friendly.

My favourite pizza place in Birmingham! I have also eaten at the stable in Winchester and had an equally pleasant experience.

Great friendly bartender, recommended very good beers to me. Had a "burger" in pizza form, thin crust, but great and all the flavors were there. Great place!

I've visited this place on a few occasions. It has been a very pleasant experience dining here. The foods I had ordered was a steak and salad dish with some side dishes too. The food was very nice and healthy. The customer service was friendly and the atmosphere was cosy and comfortable sitting inside. The drinks were nice too. I would definitely recommend my friends to try this place out.

Interesting place to get pizza and cider. Gluten free and can be vegan and diary free. Do recommended it if have sny of there's conditions.

May have given this place 5 stars if I had visited on a busier day. I liked the vibe in there as a whole but it was abit quiet. Good and drink though was very good!

Excellent service, excellent food, brilliant restaurant

Perfectly acceptable place to have a few drinks

Nice pizza 🍕 Very friendly staff Thanks Kosha 👍

Our waiter, Kousha was beyond excellent. We really enjoyed our meal and the atmosphere of the place was lovely💖

Best pizza in the city. We were 50 people for a team dinner. Accommodating staff and very welcome atmosphere

Thanks guys for looking after us for my partners birthday. Early bottomless brunch for 6 of us. Food was great! And so happy we could have beer and not just bubbles. Really looked after us, very attentive and friendly.

Good place to eat before catching train. Good location and reasonably priced.

Went on sat night. Was good. Food came quick and with Jan deals, value was excellent. Staff really polite and friendly.

Great pizza and beer. Fast friendly service

Best cider in Birmingham, great staff. Highly recommend

I always have a great meal. So so happy they updated the menu with more starter and side options :)

Really lovely environment, super cosy and will be going back again 😊

New Year’s Eve bottomless dinner was great! Good pizza and a good range of cocktails to choose from

Great food and drink along with brilliant service

Great food, drink, prices, location and most importantly for us the dog could come too. We had to go next day as due to popularity unable to walk in. Book now

Decent pizza, but heating was broken and it was pretty cold. It was busy though and the staff were really good

Called in for drinks while at the Christmas market. Very busy on a Saturday night. Door staff not as friendly as you'd expect. Had a table outside so had to use the app . As the internet is poor round there the order would t go through so had to go inside to order . When inside I explained to a member of staff how I couldn't get signal so was told "well you'll have to go back outside when you have your drinks " . We had accepted we had an outside table( early December and it was cold) but felt pushed out with the comments from staff. It felt like they wanted our money but we were an inconvenience. Might give them another chance when in Birmingham just to see how they treat us .

Good food and drink - large cider selection but also had a good range of beer. Pizza was very good!

Managed to get a table at the last minute and very pleased we did. Really good atmosphere, full with people drinking and eating. We ordered a salad, garlic bread, fancy potatoes and a salad to share and little cider tasting board. Everything was utterly delicious, pizza was maybe a little small for sharing, but would be great for one (greedy) person ☺️ Great service, tasty food and a cracking atmosphere. Will deffo go back some time.
