The Cuban Embassy in Birmingham

Good cocktails. We had the seasonal special. Excellent price, great tasting, and unusual. Decent beer selection; a few you don't often see on drought

This is a nice pub in Moseley. A bit small, but kinda opens up round corners, so you can either chill downstairs or move in upstairs where they have a bit of dance floor and a small stage with live acts. Food here is good. Nacho chips (sweet potato fries) is a twist, and are very nice. Great selection of drinks, especially rum (it is a Havana themed pub). The live music Act on 7th March were absolutely awesome. What an amazing young group of talented singers and musicians. They played some great tunes and really got the party started. Amazing night. Latino, soul and some awesome vibes, guaranteed to get you dancing.

The bees knees. You need to experience a Friday and Saturday night upstairs with the band. Great vibe. Drinks excellent. Strong and not watered down like many establishments I've been to. It's worth the trip. They now have a Caribbean Carvery on a Sunday. That's excellent too, but it gets booked up quickly. Excellent Overall!!!

As soon as we walked in the Asian guy greated us, he was really pleasant. Not a Caribbean carvery at all. No love into the food, aunt bessie potatoes and Yorkshire. The ladies sour, and attitude. Avoid

Really rude bar staff (brunette lady, 5’8). She served a gentleman who joined the bar after me & when I asked her why, she said it was because it was because he was a regular customer, I said that doesn’t that make sense. Very rude and intimidating. Not sure if she was racist or whatever but she accused me of having a ‘problem’ when she could have replied in a professional manner. Clearly not trained in customer service as expected an argument with a black female customer.

Great night out for dancing and really great vibes. Lots of lovely likeminded people just out for a great time.

Flat bottles of beer. Very questionable. Proceded by being totally ignored by staff that knew it wasn’t acceptable. Not the place it used to be.

We didn't eat but we did have cocktails and in all honesty they were awful. They were very bitter and we tried several different types. Non of them pleasant to drink. Once upstairs opened it gave the club a bit of an atmosphere with the live music.

Absolutely loved it. Great music and great drinks. Definitely underestimated this place. Hidden gem that we will certainly visit again

Recommend the Ron Old Fashioned Great spot in Moseley, good music and drinks

Again not a regular.....so can't really give anything possible or negative really Was busy though

Was there for the rum festival. Staff were amazing and very accommodating. The rum on display was amazing. Will be doing again if it is ran again

Very good vibes live music, pretty good drink prices.

Popped in after a funeral nearby. Had drinks only but the wine and lager were excellent as was the service! Many thanks.

Lovely place. I went there for the Rum Fest, which was a lot of fun!

Weird vibes, Moseley has definitely changed. Maybe just getting older!

I didn’t get the experience this establishment my first time in Birmingham and the one place I was recommended continuously was here. However after spending £20 on an Uber to get here they were closed even though it says they open at 12 pm. As you can see from my screenshot I got there just after 2pm the doors were closed no one was inside it was a waste of a trip places like this should update their timing if they can’t open at the time they advertise. This was the second place I went to yesterday that was closed at the advertised time I’m from London so if this is a common thing it should be made known so people like me don’t waste cab expenses.

curry gave me food poisoning never eating from here again

PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. The staff lack basic communication and lack of hospitality. The Caribbean Carvery is a Joke, unclear if actually cooked by a Caribbean person, considering we booked for 4pm on arrival we were told to wait as they were needing to refill, then proceeded to serve a group that came in after us. Rice is uncooked and is best part of this mess. I'm starving and can't bring myself to eat it. Curry Goat bland and mac n cheese doesn't even have cheese on! Roast potatoes are clearly aunt Bessie's. Seem they rushing but it's not busy. The only decent thing was the drinks. Manager couldn't be bothered to speak us, they didn't charge us for the meal and was quick to distance them Sadie kitchen. NEVER AGAIN....

Didn't have food so cannot review that. Drinks and variety of rums very good. Wasn't keen on the rum slushie though. In defence Bar staff did say she'd never made it before. Atmosphere on point as always

When I tell you I support the Cuba Solidarity Campaign, I mean I'm knocking back Diplomatico at this fine establishment. Try the El Dorado neat, or end the embargo and treat yourself to 4 shots for £10.

Disappointing!! Saw the advert on Instagram; menu not available. The amount of flies inside was an indication of poor hygiene and the glasses given for our wine were dirty had to bring to the attention of staff.

Went for the Caribbean buffet, the food was ok but only one serving allowed and they serve it to you, noticed that they were putting new food on top of the food already there, I don't think anyone has completed a hygiene course. The manager called Tony is rude, arrogant and needs some customer service training, anything we said was met with a shoulder shrug and 'well that's how we do it'. The price is deceiving how it is marketed and what the staff say, the food and drink are not worth £23 Also, the ladies toilets stink

Very effective and a swift service . We were able to get the visa sorted on a timely manner. The documents arrived within days

Went for the Caribbean Sunday lunch enjoyed it very much great portion size and good verity.The staff are lovely also the Rum punch is not for the faint hearted lol great drink 😀 will definitely return. Sorry no pictures as I was so hungry 😋

We went for the Carribean cavary we both vegan it was delicious.Service and staff lovely and working really hard very busy.

Enjoyed a couple of hours upstairs watching the live Latin band, great atmosphere.

Didn't try any food, attended for a live Afro caribbean night the singers were absolutely amazing the drinks were flowing placecwas packed atmosphere was electric what a great place can't wait to return. Had a great night

Enjoyed a Sunday carvery, caribbean style. The rum punch you could actually taste the rum in it. The mutton and chicken along with trimmings was lovely. The puddings were great. We all enjoyed our meals and will visit again. Staff friendly and helpful

Cocktails and mocktails, and sometimes 2 for 1 There is a pay and display coin operated car park up the road

Great range of beers and rums etc. Put it on you're list of pubs to visit on that night out in Moseley

Always pop in when in Mosley but staff not listening to the order has put me right off I say no ice and they fill glass with ice if I want watered down rum I'd buy cheap Bacardi

Great bar, and even better staff.

Went for the Caribbean Sunday lunch. Its quite expensive when you look at it £18 for one plate of food. Should be all you can eat. Food was ok but not worth the money for one plate.

I didn’t eat there & I don’t live locally but it was worth the trip over there even tho it was a bit empty mid week I guess I loved the feel of the place the decor the cocktails were great and a good price too. There was also live music there I can see myself spending some time there in the summer

Live music was great, really good atmosphere other than an unrelated incident. Matt the manager was brilliant, very keen to help out and the security and bar staff acted very quick. The outcome could’ve been so different if this wasn’t the case, lovely place with great staff :)

Fantastic atmosphere. Weekends live band. Variety of drinks. Good vibes. Now serving Caribbean lunch on Sundays. Book in advance to avoid disappointment.

The atmosphere is great but its not Cuban, unless its on specific stated dates on their website. If you are look for a great time is a great place the music is great too. But if you are looking for a great cuban time you will be disappointed, again unless its Latin night. In honesty I was disappointed because I went specifically because the name communicated to me Cuban vibes, but that was not the case. I did enjoy the live music and dj set but, after i left to look for Cuban vibes.

Great food from the BaHa kitchen, sadly the kitchen is closing. Would still recommend you get some good rum, and get some good BaHa wherever they end up next.

Staff very friendly was unable to have food due to it being Thursday

Ba-ha do an incredible job with their Cuban inspired vegan cooking. I always look forward to what they'll come up with next!

The staff were so friendly and helpful.

Really unusual and imaginative food, super tasty and filling! Great range of cocktails too! Staff were super friendly but the food took a little while and arrived in dribs and drabs (Friday night).

What can I say...wow! The BA-HA vegan Cuban menu by Frankie Heekin is incredible...! I had to get a picture of her too! Probably the best vegan tacos I have tasted and the padron peppers were authentically delicious...! The vegan lemon cheesecake had a great fluffy texture and was not too sweet. Absolutely perfect. This place is a MUST visit for foodies Birmingham just like their menu at the Rainbow. I will be back...!!

Staff are excellent - we were in there on a quiet Thursday night and they were good fun and provided great service. There are some weirdos in there though

Always a nice vibe in here. Enjoyed the B13 Cinema night. Saw the John Carpenter alien Terror classic The Thing on Thursday.

Buenos Dias, Awesome place....great atmosphere for everyone and great location. You can't beat the jam on de floor...Great beat...stepping on the dance floor...We'll definitely be back✋🙌🙂

The most beautiful night out in birmingham 💋💋💋💋💋🥰🥰🥰

Possibly in over 50 years of drinking one of the worst pubs I've been in. Flat, expensive beer and surly barman. Could only manage to drink half and left....all six of us.

Amazing selection of rum bar staff friendly and helpful gave us some great recommendations and help on selecting our drinks

Now that BAHA are in charge of the food this place is a must visit! All vegan and all so so so moorish. Washed down with some Cuban cocktails, what could be better?

Lovely food, nice atmosphere, reasonably quiet on a Thursday evening. Live music started about 8pm. Reccomend trying the tres leches cake!

Quality rum. Proper rum cocktails

Finally got the opportunity to pop in. Good size place. The Guinness was outstanding. Staff were friendly. Nice place.

Best live upstairs pub music that is free to listen to on nights out. Deals on shots, good daytime food and social smoking area

Amazing Cuban live music for free !!! And fab cocktails 🥂

Lovely bar, live music upstairs. Great staff and service xx terrible rainstorm tonight so best off staying in the boozer! Xx

I would have rated it higher, but the bartenders weren't friendly at all. They ruined the experience for me.

Great afternoon at Cuban Embassy for Rum Festival

Friendly bar, tapas menu and Latino drinks menu. Upstairs, B14 community cinema, great venue.

Amazing Atmosphere and live ban

Live music is fab, great give. Can't wait to return!

5/5 based on Cuban cocktails, the barman & the vibe (didn't try the food). The rum-based cocktails were awesome. It was fairly quiet when we poped in, so we had a choice of seats. It became very busy & quite loud later, hence we decided to escape.

Has great rum cocktails and a good selection of sharing platters and small bites although it is a bit pricey. Main downside is that it’s often pretty busy so it can be hard to find a table or space to stand.

If you’ve been out in Moseley, it’s highly likely you’ve been to the iconic Cuban Embassy (Bulls Head). It is the oldest pub in the village dating back to the 1700s. Now it’s a little slice of Havana serving up rum based cocktails and live cuban music each weekend 🇨🇺 🍹 💃🏽 We went on Saturday afternoon for bottomless brunch (2hrs). Choose bottomless Prosecco or Cuba Libres, two small plates and a side for £35 per person. We ordered: 🍔 Iberian Burger 🐟 Cod and Pepper Croquettes 🇪🇸Spanish Chorizo 🍗 Garlic Chicken Thighs 🍟 Sweet Potato Fries 🧄 Garlic Flatbread with cheese The food is provided by Santi’s Kitchen and we loved every bite 👌🏽 The garlic chicken thighs were sensational. We were mopping up every last ounce of the sauce with the garlic flatbread; we nearly wore a hole into the plate 😆 The cod and pepper croquettes were generously filled with fish, rather than filled out with potato. They were delicately seasoned so the fish could shine and we wanted a bucket full. The burger looked pretty basic, but then we took a bite…the Manchego was nutty and slightly sweet, perfectly complimenting the salty Serrano ham. It tasted homemade and authentic. It was quiet during our visit, so even though I hate the phrase because people are saying it about everything, I’m going to say it…the venue might be well known, but the brunch is a 💎 hidden gem 💎 It was fantastic for us too as Cuba Libres are a much more appealing option than sugary cocktails. They were also super accommodating and let my mum have vodka instead of rum ☺️ it’s the little touches. We were having such a lovely time we stayed for a few extra hours and enjoyed some banana daiquiris 🍌

Food is absolutely amazing and the prices are really good

My friend and I went to the Cuban Embassy for lunch today with our little ones. The food was delicious and very good service. The quality of the food is really good according to the prices. Will come back.

Better than my last visit. Doormen were ace characters compared to the last aggressive ***** they hired before. Staff are friendly and helpful and all round a good vybe. Recommend 👍

Really enjoyed the band. The atmosphere was really friendly. Lively and fun people. Food was very tasty. Would definitely return.

Wonderful atmosphere. Good range of beers and spirits. Great, but very loud music. The doormen were very thorough with the search of the gentlemen but gave only a cursory glance inside the ladies' bags.

Went for an early drink at 7pm on a Saturday and plenty of tables available. Lots of cocktails on the menu, and loads of lovely rum that's good enough to just have it with ice. There's also about 10 beers on keg too, so plenty of lagers and Guinness if you're not in the mood for gin or rum. Nice atmosphere when it's quiet

A bit cold at the start... But surely Street the live music started, the place became a self heated humans room... LOL

Quite disappointing, just an over crowded bar

Went for Latin night with the band and loved every minute. But it did turn into a mosh pit

La comida es deliciosa! Santiago Plazas tiene ese toque para darle ese sabor casero. Siempre seré fiel a las deliciosas arepas y las patatas bravas!! No he encontrado en Inglaterra un lugar que asemeje el sabor de nuestra tierra, sólo con Santi's kitchen! 😊

The live music performance was great, a fun night out 😍

Extremely quiet on a Friday night. Not what it once was. Drinks very expensive.

Fantastic little venue really enjoyed the night, the band on Friday night (14 Oct) were terrific especially the drummer (but I forgot the band name)

The place has a good vibe. Went there later in the evening so headed upstairs where theres a bar, live music, dancing. Nice diverse crowd as well.

Only latinos get this: gringos trying to be latinos always miss the mark. Will go to a real latino place when I can. Anyways, it's an OK place, but too crawded on Saturday night

Old seats made from old wooden boards. Very uncomfortable,

This is a follow up review. Last year October 2021 I visited and had a great bottomless brunch with lovely food. Unfortunately visited again this month and food was a sandwich. Not a proper brunch. Also staff weren't keen on refills. Over priced for a bottomless sandwich. Previously we had paella and complimentary chorros but all the choice has been removed. Suggest maybe have a few drinks but bottomless brunch is an expensive disappointment now which is a real shame.

Terrible. Only do sandwiches now! Don't waste your money!

We went here yesterday for a bottomless brunch. The drinks were ok and but the food was terrible! It consisted of the cheapest chips you could buy and Cubano which were sandwich thins in a little plastic basket! We were very disappointed as I had been before with family in October and had paella and other people had 3 dishes of food of their choice. We wont go again or recommend it. Save your money go somewhere decent.

Good place to have a cocktail or a tot of rum. Food is also decent as well. My only problem is the lack of rum selection here. Although it's cuban based, it's mainly more Bacardi than actual good cuban rums like Santiago de Cuba. Also wouldn't hurt to stock up on other rums from Jamaica or Barbados just to bump up the selection.

This place was banging! Just like being on holiday on a hot su night day.

Georgie and Clem behind the bar served us tonight and we’re absolutely fantastic! I have never had such amazing experience from staff here after spending my 19th here two years ago and coming back here just brought back great memories and reminded me of such a great experience. Love from Lee, Ellie, Dillan, Luke

Georgie was lovely. Love this pub!!!

Asked for a double vodka, and got served coke only. Went back to the bar and was treated like I was a liar. On my way out the over dramatic bar girl was slagging me off to the manager. When I said that's me your talking about both thier face's dropped. The manger was so unprofessional it was beyond a joke. I got the feeling this is not the frist time they have done this. Alway check your drinks.

Doesn't look much from the outside but inside was very nice & had some lovely food will definitely be going back

Excellent selection of rums and lovely staff. Only point I would make is that the staff could do with a little training on what they have in stock to help with customer selection. It would also be great if this place did a tasting night.

Live entertainment was great. Great atmosphere and different than the usual pub scene. Was pleasantly surprised and will return. Did not try downstairs or the cocktails but love that there was lots of choice. Will definitely return

Nice surroundings friendly staff, no WiFi

I dropped in after work on Sunday 10th,. I stood at the bar for 10mins, No acknowledgment. Empty pub. One person was being served with 3 staff behind the bar. They clearly didn’t want my company. I just wasn’t Cool enough and too old. Very disappointed. Would never go back. Shocking customer service.

Celebrating a family birthday lovely pub good selection of beers wines and spirits Gets very lively into the evening with music

I enjoyed my night. Had a pint of Guinness Stout. Amazing experience.

Awesome bar and 💯 authentic with lovely drinks and no shortage or rum 😁

Busy bustling and very popular. Great cocktails from an extensive list. Pricey but worth it.

I went to this place because friends told me that it was a good place to go if you want to enjoy Latin american music, but that was not my experience. I went to this place hoping to listen the music from my side of the world... salsa, merengue, reggae; yes it was the lyric of the songs but not the rhythm and for us (latinos) the rhythm is what make us dance. You can't change a salsa song to techno or R&B rhythm, just to get the english guest... it's not fair that we went there, spend our money and every single song was change just to make enjoyable for others. It's our culture, you have a name that represent latins, we are hoping to have a little part of our culture in the other side of the world.
