The Junction in Birmingham

A great ‘proper pub’ to have on Harborne High St, great selection of beers and knowledgeable staff. Been here for food a few times recently too, really enjoyed their summer menu and loving their new winter menu. Definitely recommend!

Had a lovely Sunday lunch here. Kids portions were really well sized (even for an 11yr old!) roasties were delicious! Thank you!

Service is terrible. We waited fir an hour for the food but when we got if finally burger was over cooked almost burned very dry and hard as a rock so we couldn’t eat it when we complained we found that they have only vegetables no more burger left

Friendly atmosphere, good service

Had a lovely mid morning cup of tea here today

The star rating for food is because I didn't order any; my experience tonight tells me that had I done so the rating would be as high as all the others given. A delightfully relaxing evening with a fun pub quiz that adds to the overall ambience. I regret the over balancing menu and vase that got in the way of its trajectory. I cannot praise the establishment more and commend the added attraction of an entertaining and, for me, informative quiz evening. Highly recommended.

The best pub in harborne 💖 amazing food and lovely team always

Great time had by all last Sunday Great roasts and a brilliant choice of craft and cask.

Just had a few drinks, good selection of ales, a traditional pub with nice vib

Great service and brilliant atmosphere

Nice place, nice pork rind! UPDATE: Been to this pub a few times now and have to up my rating to 5 stars. The service and ales are great. But what's special about this venue...? The Scotch Eggs! Amazing!! Check out the photos, speak for themselves. Get yourself down there!

Thanks to the Junction for hosting the second leg of our charity pub walk for Social Bite. Ash, Harriet & James were very welcoming. - M&B People Services

Served a large group of us on Saturday early afternoon. Team were really friendly, business was perfectly clean. Thank you for a lovely visit!

Very slow service in an empty pub at lunchtime. Food was ok once it arrived but our ‘ crème anglias ‘ was curdled and cold as if out of the freezer.

Really friendly staff and good beers on tap - a great place for a pint and a chat with friends.

Have been to the Junction a few times over the years and have always thought best looking pub on the High Street. First time today that I have eaten there, and Omg why!! Had the best tasting burger I have had for years 😋 So SO nice!!! Extremely sad I am not local....but will be back next time in the area . PS love the look of the new refit. thanks guys

We booked a table for 7. When we arrived only a table of 5 had been reserved. Thankfully the pub was quiet so this was quickly rectified. We ordered drinks. The white wine was warm and we had to request ice. For the cost, white wine should be served cold! We ordered food, only to be told 10 mins later- the salad was unavailable. Would have expected kitchen to inform front of house when things are unavailable. The chips on the fish and chips were abit anaemic. The roast potatoes on the roast was cold and only a small amount of gravy was provided. Overall the food was really lack luster! Will only be returning for drinks.

An excellent Pub/Diner , I have had the pleasure to eat there with my family a few times in the last two years. Brilliant customer service from the team especially the General Manager Helen.

A lovely family dinner on a quiet Tuesday evening. We sat in the Snug and enjoyed a fabulous meal. Catered for by Nash, excellent food for the vegan, veggie and carnivore members of our family! Our host Gemma was great, we were using a Dining Out Gift Card which was a bit temperamental signing in. No problem or fuss for Gemma who sorted behind the scenes so we could continue our evening. Thank you.

Brought my dad & sister here, had a lovely Sunday roast and apple crumble by chef Mark. We had an amazing time. Special shoutout to our waiter James B, who was welcoming and friendly and made sure we were well looked after.

Very disappointing, ridiculously expensive! house wine £26 a bottle 😳and not that nice . Garden area shocking, you need to up your game, new inn, slug and plough 🤷‍♀️ very depressing area outside, pots on the steps, paint the walls would help, you really have a long way to go, I’m local, won’t be coming back any time soon, but staff were lovely 👍🏻

John was amazing. Nice on the eye too. 5 stars.

Fantastic pub. The Monday quiz hosted by Ash is wonderful and at my most recent visit a waiter (cannot remember the name, sorry!!) went above and beyond to obtain me BBQ sauce.

Had a blast at Monday Night Quiz! We were served by the attentive and friendly John, and the haloumi fries (cooked by Junaid & Gabby) were absolutely delectable! Best Halloumi fries ever. 🤤🤩😍

Came for the roast and it was unreal! Libby served us and she was such a slay!!

A group of us met for a catch up. We were not rushed to leave the table after a set time. The staff were friendly, helpful and didn't keep us waiting a long time for our food and drinks.

Had James B as our server - was lovely and attentive, really good night !!

Lovely lunch today, baked Camembert and small plates, beer, wine and much fun. Very pleasant service and although quiet, a lovely atmosphere. Can’t recommend enough.

Food was alright for its price, but the bloody mary was the worst ive had in my life, ive drank them in hundreds of places

Really friendly and welcoming service from staff. Particularly after a really tough day. Definitely will commend Natalie who was great. Thanks

This place is a go-to destination for all those seeking quality time in Harborne.

Could have kindly said not to take pictures of their beer taps.

Came here with my family, we all had the Signature burger which was juicy and cheesy, and we were served by Emily, who was very lovely and made us the best cocktails:))

Visited here 7.00pm with a friend. Wanted a salad, none left on menu. My friend ordered fish and chips, I, cheeseburger and chips. My friends fish was so over cooked it was a dark oak colour. I personally would have sent it back but she doesn’t like to make a scene, though it must have been bad as when asked if everything was ok, she commented it was overdone. My burger and chips was ‘happy meal’ size (really not worth the money). We asked for table water, never arrived. We were offered free deserts, had the cheesecake, which was delicious. The young chap and girl were lovely waiters though, polite, friendly and pleasant. Would drink here again but not eat. So many other lovely places to eat in Harborne.

It's not cheap. But it's a lovely pub, good beer, and atmosphere

We were let down by a different venue, and someone highly recommended the junction as being dog friendly. As soon as we arrived, we were welcomed by dog loving regulars. They made a fuss of our pup, and he was given a few treats. They have a treat and fresh water station for dogs, which is a very welcomed touch. The food was to a very high standard and was very reasonably priced. We would happily recommend this establishment to anyone.

Great pub, lots of beer and other drinks options! Plenty of space, definitely there for a good time!

Libby was very helpful and friendly, the food was excellent 😊

A nice pub/ bar with a pleasant atmosphere.

Nice pub, with a relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and decent beer 🙂

We had the pleasure of being served by Libby at the Junction today. We were quite a big group of 20 or so and needed to be separated into 2 tables of 10 with small children. Libby effortlessly organised our two tables and was very understanding when there was a problem with one of the food orders. What a great asset to the team, we hope to be served by her when we next visit 😊

Great service today from Ash, checked that I had everything for my starter, main and throughout provided exceptional drinks. Was a pleasure to be served by them, a fantastic and welcoming personality! Food was delicious too :)

Very nice Pub relaxing place to hang out with friends. We had lunch, food was nice and fresh by chef Mark. Highly recommended this place 👌

Libby was great and so was the camembert

Lovely warm atmosphere Great food and beer

I love this place. The energy of the staff, the vibe atmosphere and ambiance it's a family friendly and dog oriented stablishment cheers to the team and to the servers they are very hard workers

Service was exceplent. In general the food was great but the sticky toffee pudding was dry and the tiny portion of custard with the crumble was ridiculous.

Kate provided great service! Food was great. Would definitely recommend to others to attend the restaurant. Would come back

I came here for some drinks and was served by an amazing team here by Imogen, John and Nat. lovely location and good food also. The chefs Nash and Brandon..good job lads. definetly will come again!

We had a lovely time at the junction. Immy, John and nat served us lovely drinks all night. The food from Nash and Brandon was excellent. Will definitely come back!!

Popped in for a Sunday roast and was not disappointed. The food was delicious but the service was even better. Rosa was charismatic and helpful, making our experience that much better. One of the best waitresses at the Junction. I will be back.

My “go to” pub for a cosy night. All the team are lovely and it’s a really child friendly environment.

We were greeted promptly upon arrival, there was only one menu on our table, and we were a party of 6, so I took my own initiative to get some more. We were greeted by our table waitress. She was incompetent and attempted to replay our order to us when we’d only ordered 4 mains out of 6 so far. We also ordered 3x nachos for starters. I clearly stated 3 times that I did not want guacamole on top of the nachos and asked for the dip to be given separately on the side. I did not see her write this down, hence why I asked 3 times, however she ensured me she understood. Lo and behold, the nachos arrived, all with guacamole on them. Once I complained, she had the cheek to ask me whether this was okay, and whether the guacamole can stay on top of the nachos, to which I replied no. They were taken back, but magically appeared again 5 minutes later. For the nachos bowl I was eating off, I could see bits of guacamole. They had not been remade, they had simply scraped off the guacamole. By this point I did not have the energy to complain again, and the whole party was hungry, therefore I did not complain again. However, I find this extremely poor. Some of the nachos were also soggy and they were not very warm, and additionally a lot of the nachos did not have cheese on them. They were extremely different to how I’ve had them at the junction previously where everything was perfect. Mains then arrived, these were a lot better, and very tasty. We were not asked again whether anybody wanted a drinks top up until after everyone had finished their meals, by this time we were ready to leave. It was an extremely disappointing visit, it was my birthday and that was the reason for the visit and I had only good words to say about my previous visit. Unfortunately following this visit, I will be unlikely to go back for a long time. Additionally, the atmosphere was relatively nice and relaxed, until the rugby started and the speakers came on and the commentary was being blasted throughout the pub which ruined the atmosphere given that this was a birthday meal.

Ashleigh was a fantastic host, so diligent and attentive, made our trip amazing. Food was great, especially puddings !

Ash and John were bloody amazing, would give my life for them 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 10/10 scran and service ❤️❤️ big up Ash and John xxxx

Fantastic service this evening, John really looked after us; food was excellent- would recommend Took Rory the dog with us, he loves it there

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and great service by John!

Great - great! Everything was fantastic. Camden Stout is a god send! Padron Peppers was delicious

Open fire in winter is lush! Food is lush. More vegan options would be good... who wants to eat a salad in front of a fire on a cold day?

We had Sunday roast for Mothers Day. The Junction is without doubt the finest pub Sunday lunch you can get. The sharing roast for me and my wife was phenomenal. The service is relaxed and just what you want for a peaceful Sunday. Highly recommend

Sat by the open fire was so nostalgic

We didn't eat this time but have eaten here before, nice food and friendly staff

Great atmosphere, very tasty food and friendly staff.

We hired an area for a birthday and pre ordered drinks and food. Brilliant time. Staff are great. Really helpful, friendly. On the ball. Atmosphere is brilliant. The food was amazing and generous!! Thankyou for a great night

I was the only person at the bar but kept waiting by the guy serving while he chatted with other staff. Useless. Scored 1 star as 0 was not an option.

Good food, good service, good ambience. Friendly service from Rosa. Very nice nachos and drinks. Rosa very beautiful person and amazing hostess. Had a great conversation with my mum and I.

Yesterday evening, disappointed, never anyone ‘present or aware’ at the bar, you stand there and the bar staff will have their backs to you/ignore you. I mean what do they think they’re there to do?! When they eventually serve you it’s in the wrong order (infuriating beyond belief). PLEASE ALWAYS ASK - WHO IS NEXT - IF YOU DON’T KNOW!!! NOT THAT DIFFICULT!!! Sullen & stroppy staff, no smile, bad entitled attitudes. Nice bar, horrid staff. The bar staff at the Green Man ( another M&B pub down the road), so much better, well trained and professional!! Added a few days after my review: Suspicious - a load of 5 star reviews appear after mine. Clearly faked by staff. Suspicious - all the above reviews responded on but mine ignored! Added - Helen - please do not lecture me - perhaps if you’d had to put up with your disrespectful staff then you’d be annoyed - please do your job and get them to do theirs !

Great place! Nice food and the staff are so friendly

Great food, great service, good value, although the room was a little cold where we sat.

First time visiting The Junction and will definitely be returning. The Sunday lunch sharing board was worth every penny. The food was delicious and plenty of it. Our server Rosa was pleasant and very attentive. Would highly recommend.

Staff were great; attentive and quick to serve. Atmosphere was perfect. Loved that the fire was on. I didn't see it on when I visited before.

Ashley was fantastic. She moved us to a different seat so we were in a quiet spot. She was attentive but not over bearing. Food was great and everyone was well looked after. Thank you Ashley.

Had a great time, amazing service, was served by Katie who was lovely and super helpful, halloumi fries were so delicious, definitely recommend!!

Great selection of cask ales and really warm and cosy environment.

Always a good night out here whether you're having food or just drinks. Keep up the good work!

The food,staff and the place was clean food was amazing the staff very friendly and helpful

Went for food today at 5:30pm (4/1/24) and i’m happy to say the food was amazing and well presented all staff are hard working especially the chefs👏

We booked our Christmas Day meal at the Junction and were not disappointed! The quality of the food was incredible and the portion sizes were very generous too considering it was 5 courses each! Staff were very attentive despite the bar being very busy and we didn't feel rushed at all. We would definitely consider the Junction again for a Christmas meal.

From outside this place looks like a regular pub but inside Its a gastropub it has a nice bar at the front and plenty of tables along the side and towards the back of the room. I went with my wife around 3pm on a Monday and it was quiet. We asked for menus at the bar and picked a table at the back. They have the option to order and pay at table but the burger menu was not on the website so went up to the bar and ordered. The lady served me straight away and asked if I had any allergies, she answered any questions I had about the food and double checked with the chef about how the chicken schnitzel was cooked. Our starter was a crispy calamari I and was pleasantly surprised. At first glance it looked over done but it was cooked beautifully, not chewy or stringy just perfect bites. Next came our mains, I had the chicken schnitzel and I finished every bite. It’s not often I eat the salad that comes along with a meal but I liked this as it wasn’t drenched in dressing and the fries were perfectly cooked. My wife had the big dipper from the burger menu (this menu was not on the website hence why we went up to the bar to order). Again the fries were cooked to perfection and the burger was delicious, the burger bun was nice and soft and the right amount of sauce and pickles are on the burger too. I will definitely come back again especially to try the Sunday roast. This place is my new favourite food spot in harborne.

Great service, very nice food. All good

Throughly enjoed our evening there. The food was amazing and so were the staff. The Chef Brandon is very good and shows consideration for the customers. We will be returining.

Excellent food as always. No fuss about about my needing gluten free. The Christmas card was a lovely touch. Really enjoyed our visit.

Really enjoy visiting for food as it is always excellent. However on the last two occasions we have been made to feel rushed by staff who have consistently reminded us that there is a table reservation following ours. We are always conscious of this and do not need to be reminded three or four times. Especially when there is still over an hour before we need to leave. It spoils the experience. We appreciate it’s busy but it comes across as rude. Even when said with a smile.

Work's Christmas meal on a busy Friday night. Excellent service by friendly, patient and efficient staff on a very busy night at the Junction The food was superb - generous portions. Delicious salmon pâté, turkey dinner, chocolate torte - dessert was divine. The vegetarian members of our group very much enjoyed the veggie alternative. Thanks so much to the waiting staff for a smooth-running, highly enjoyable evening 🙏 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great evening, all the staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was very tasty.

This place is so friendly, I organised a social event for work, they are so accommodating, there were constant changes with people dropping out and people wanting to attend at the last minute, but they respond to emails in a timely manner and made sure everything was in place! Thank you so much for your help!

Had a delicious Christmas dinner, really great atmosphere and lovely staff. Special thanks to Mary for our cocktails!

Great pub with a great atmosphere

Everything was great. We will be back next year for our Xmas do.

Nice and cozy place for drinks.

Great pub for drinks but avoid eating there. Poor quality food. One meal had to be sent back and another (fish in batter) hard as a rock and burnt underneath. There’s a choice between fries and chips and despite emphasising chips three sets of fries were served. Unimpressed

First time here on a busy early Saturday evening and the atmosphere was lovely. I didn't realise the pub was so big. Lots of character and comfy seating. Will definitely return. Thank you 😊

John and Mary were wonderful and accommodating at our society Christmas meal!

Our server John was lovely - very helpful and chatty.

Wonderful venue for a group party. John and Mary were very friendly and provided excellent service!

John and Mary were the highlight. They were incredible and understanding when we messed up the orders! Thank you for making our night

John and Mary have been absolutely wonderful servers and very understanding of the complications of having such a large group. We will be coming again!

サンデーローストがとても美味しかったです！ また行きます。 外装も素敵だし、トイレも綺麗でした。

Service was amazing, specifically Katie who served us. She was very efficient and friendly, great customer service! Food was also very nice. Would definitely reccomend.

Tom is a lovely worker and was really polite and met all our needs and wants, you are very lucky to have him as part of your staff and I will definitely return!
