    Bloody Mary time!
    Samuel J.

    I am a massive fan of bank as a bar, the cocktails and the atmosphere are great. Situated behind Brindley place it's an amazing place to meet people and either pre drink or go for a quiet cocktail or five. I will say now it's not the cheapest of places but with the level of service provided I think it's worth the cost. The seating area out the front has great heat lamps and the table service is incredibly good with waiters being really attentive. During the day it has a really chilled atmosphere and at night it becomes very trendy although busy straight after work. The food is fantastic although slightly on the more expensive side compared too what's currently on offer in the city. All in all as a bar I can thoroughly recommend it, however for food i would say there are stronger options.

    Bank Birmingham derves breakfast, lunch and dinner. I found the menu exciting with plenty to choose from - even for vegitarians. It was served, presented and cooked to perfection. Not only is the food of good quality but the overall appearance of Bank from the moment you step inside makes you feel you are somewhere special. In better weather (if possible in England) you can sit outside over looking the canal or over the square and for parties there are private rooms to accomodate for this. I enjoyed Bank but feel, for me, it would be a place I go to on special occasions due to prices are not affordable to me as I'm a student!

Myself and a friend who likes to think he is a lot funnier than he actually is (we all know one of those) went in the other day for a meal and were pretty impressed from the moment we walked into the venue. The place is immaculate.....like SO fresh! It's clean, smells like IKEA flatpack and has a really polished finish....I especially like the little courtyard as you walk into the venue....drinks out there on a sunny evening....lovely! We were walked upstairs by the manager after checking our reservation and taken to a table. The resturant is vast with many small rooms giving a cozy feel. We went into an upstairs room with large glass windows overlooking the canal and were sat down.....slight gripe....the restaurant was pretty quiet where we were and we were sat right next to another woman that was eating alone even though there were other tables which would have allowed a little more space/room to chat about mildly inappropriate topics....haha....not a huge ine really just felt a little weird as there were other tables available. We both had the pre theatre menu which is pretty extensive and has a lot of good options. We both had the rabbit pate to start....it was good but don't think I would go for it again.....then I had the pork medallions for my main. The pork was beautifully cooked with a side of dauphinoise and seasonal veg. All amazing I must say...big shouts to the sauce on the whole plate which was rich and full of flavour. The other slight gripe I have is the slightly over attentive service while you are in the venue but im putting that down to everyone there being so keen to impress. I think you can let people relax a little....what you are doing is really good :) 5* will be back....100% try this place out ASAP.

I can honestly say I'm honoured to have visited here with another fellow yelper. I must admit I've never been a big enthusiast of French cuisine, purely because my knowledge in wines accompanying a meal is zero to none. However! This restaurant has opened my eyes once again to European because the food was fantastic and to top that, what makes the difference is the customer service making me and my friend feel like home in this wonderful feeling overlooking the canal. My meal consisted of the pre theatre menu with pork medallions and the chocolate torte dessert. The Pork Medallions was glazed with honey and mustard and layed with some sausage, mustard and pepper sauce with caramelised Apple. Such a combo makes a great mixture that your tastebuds just simply can't resist. The chocolate torte I thought was quite rich (not a massive chocolate fan so bear with me!) however, this was neutralised by the amazing black current ice cream produced from the restaurant chain itself. For an amazing price of £15 pp I can honestly say I feel like I robbed the restaurant for their hospitality. You have made me a very happy yelper Serena and I hope my tipped reached you. Would visit again

Absolutely beautiful restaurant and fantastic large outdoor dining area which is great on a nice sunny day dining by the canal.

The staff are attentive, polite and even spark into some friendly conversation which is nice. They have a reasonable lunch time offer for 2 course or three course meals. They also offer pre-theatre menus too. Can't fault the place.

You will find greenery running all upside the walls as well as a fantastic view of the canal. In the evening the ambience inside is also great. Reservations are available but you can usually get in without too much of a wait time. On this occasion I ordered a spinach and mushroom crepe which was fantastic! It's probably my favourite vegetarian dish that they do. It's a sensible portion that leaves you satisfied. For dessert I ordered the praline crepe which was again fantastic. You generally find with dessert crepes that they can do no bad no matter where your buying it from. Cotes crepes are above standard in terms of quality with a light pancake and not overly sweet praline feeling. For me in particular this restaurant shines in the summer. The cocktails are great and the dining experience is unique.

We…read morehit the indoor snowdome at near by Tamworth and I was delegated the task of finding somewhere nice for dinner. Now, considering Birmingham is the UK's second largest city, you'd think that it would be full of lovely fine dining experiences. Well, you'd be wrong and I was struggling when the few Michelin starred places were fully booked So what's the next best thing to a Michelin starred restaurant? A restaurant run a chef who used to run a Michelin starred restaurant! The chef-patron Andy Waters won a Michelin star when he ran a restaurant of the same name in Henley-in-Arden. He has upped sticks to open this restaurant in central Birmingham in July last year and the Michelin people have already been expressing an interest in rating his new restaurant The restaurant is quite cozy but beautifully decorated in a modern style with an eye for detail extending from interesting curved light arrangements hanging from the ceiling to flowers in the bathrooms. After an afternoon's exertions on the slopes, we were hungry and opted for the tasting menu, which included 7 courses with coffee and half a bottle of water included in the price. There was a choice offered for 4 courses 1. The amuse bouche was a cup of parsnip and apple soup. My friend summed it up perfectly by saying it was a taste of Christmas in a cup 2. I opted for Cornish crab with crispy king prawn & salmon tartare for my first course. The Cornish crab tasted very fresh and was accented with some caviar. The salmon tartare could have done with a foil, perhaps something with a bit of texture for contrast. The crispy king prawn was so lovely I even ate the deep fried tail, which flummoxed my friends when they found my plate to be bare! My sister said her carpaccio of beef with ricotta & parmesan cheese, rocket leaves & sweetened red pepper married flavours together perfectly 3. While the others enjoyed wonderfully sweet seared scallops with almonds, sultanas & caper butter sauce, I couldn't resist the seared foie gras with poached pear & spiced Muscat sauce. A good choice with decadently rich liver being offset by the sweet pear and sauce. 4. I think the restaurant undersold our universal choice for main course by describing it as "Jimmy Butler's free range pork with apples, calvados & a confit of savoy cabbage". Once the maitre d' had clarified that this was pork prepared in 4 ways - black pudding, slow braised cheek, pan roasted loin and roasted belly, the monkfish alternative was quickly dismissed. My favourite preparation was the braised cheek, which went very well with the black pudding it was sitting on 5. The cheese course was a deep fried ball of goat's cheese with a slice of truffle and honey. I love truffle and I felt it was a bit drowned out by the goat's cheese, so I ate my slice separately! 6. Our pre-dessert of passion fruit jelly was topped with a fruit mixture. Nice palate cleanser 7. The kitchen was unable to offer the desserts on the tasting menu and so we were given free choice of the dessert menu to choose from. We all chose different dishes to be able to share different things. My poached pear was lovely. My sister's tiramisu was a deconstructed version of the Italian classic shaped into a chocolate box. Lesley B's chocolate fondant didn't quite have the molten interior expected while the last dessert was a trio including mango sorbet. Some lovely petit fours accompanied coffee. The ingredients in the dishes included some real treats - caviar and truffle to name 2. The presentation was also top class. A couple of minor technical slips but a most enjoyable meal Service was lovely and we were able to chat quite a lot with the maitre d' to find out a bit more about the restaurant and its history. I await with interest to see if the Michelin guide will reward them in January

A friend and I popped in for lunch earlier today as we had a voucher sent to us for a cheeky 40% discount on main meals. Having a look over the menu I quickly picked out the goats cheese and beetroot salad while my vegetarian friend went for the camembert baguette served with fries. She did mention that there was a slight lack of vegetarian options on the menu so this could be a bad restaurant choice for those avoiding meat. The food we had came quickly and was very nicely presented. Everything tasted great and our waiter was accommodating and chatty. When we got the bill our discount had not been taken off, we questioned the total and it was quickly adjusted. At a little under £10 each for lunch with a drink .... how can you complain at that. I don't think I will be rushing back here without a discount code or voucher, but overall a good lunch.
