    Love the Mockingbird!…read more Great beers on tap, including a selection of Belgian fruit beers, and a neat cocktail menu. The food is also very good (try the Mockingburger- It's got a giant fried duck egg on it). The cuban sandwich isn't really a cuban sandwich (it's basically BBQ pulled pork) but it's still really delicious! Really chill vibe, with exposed brick inside and outdoor seating in the custard factory courtyard when the weather's nice. What really makes the Mockingbird awesome though, is it's theatre and the regular events hosted there. Movie screenings paired with live music and cocktails... most recently Brandon A. and I went to a screening of The Blues Brothers and it was great! If you're in Digbeth it's definitely worth checking out.

    After attending my first instameet, I was so excited to visit Mocking bird again to watch a film…read morehere and couldn't be more happy with my experience, The Film I watched was '10 Things I hate about you' I made sure that I didn't look up the film as I wanted this to remain as a surprise, all I knew was that it's a classical chic flick :P The cinema is incredibly comfortable, as I tucked into my mint tea and popcorn. With a great bar and restaurant area feel feel to eat and drink afterwards too, some nights the venue also offer food that are themed according to what film has been shown. The particulary love the bright and insta worthy décor! Based in Custard factory of what a gem, I'll be back again for sure Have a good day everyone, thanks a bunch for reading ----

    So.... I tried. I tried once and I tried again and the Everyman still hasn't quite won me over yet…read more After the initial launch, I booked tickets to go and see Avengers in April for a bit of a date night treat with Dan G. As the cinema specialises in bringing food to your seat, I figured it would be worth heading down for a spot of dinner and a film on a Thursday evening to give this place a proper try. Firstly, I do love the layout and vibe. You're welcomed into a smart, stylised bar and eatery area and invited to take a seat before your film. You can order food before the showing if you would prefer or order for delivery during the film. On our first trip we flashed our tickets (on email, rather an a paper ticket system) and headed to the bar to order a couple of burgers and beer. I went for a veggie burger and Dan went for a smoked. This with a couple of beers came to around £30 (which was incorrect as per the website and seemed to be quite pricey - especially for drinks), still, we duly paid up and headed to the screen for a punchy extravaganza of superhero proportions. The food was bought out to us during the adverts and bought out to us on a tray (so you can pop it on your lap). The burger was really atrocious. I couldn't taste anything at all! Considering it was packed with all kinds of lovely veg - this was a total shame. The seats were comfy enough (every seat at the Everyman is a sofa seat), but as Dan has pointed out - the sound didn't seem to be great (which was another disappointment). Following this visit I got in touch with the Everyman to tell them about my experience (I would have spoken to the manager on the night, but the film didn't finish until nearly 12pm and I was shattered). Their customer service was top notch (that gets 5*) and I received an email reply stating that they would update their website and offered another two burgers on the house to make up for our sub-par food on our first visit. We decided to give them another go and visited a second time in May to see Mad Max. We popped in, flashed the email and were offered the free food without any issues. I went for a house burger this time and we just ordered a couple of glasses of water (as it was a roasting hot day and we were parched). The screen we were in a second time (downstairs) was a lot better. Even comfier, more leg room and better sound. This was a much more pleasant screening experience than we had, had previously. The food didn't come out until the film had started (which was a bit of a pain as we had to eat in the dark) and although my burger seemed to be a lot more flavoursome, it was a tad burned. All in all, I would give the venue 3.5 stars due to the great customer service, comfy seating and great screening area downstairs (which has it's own dedicated bar). I am not in a hurry to head back (it's quite expensive for films at around £12 - £13 a ticket) and the food hasn't wowed me yet. Don't let that put you off though! It's definitely worth a visit if you haven't yet been, just be sure to keep in mind that the drinks are quite pricey. I would recommend it for a date night or a treat, but for an everyday cinema experience I would probably head elsewhere.

    This is one of those places that has been on my radar for ages but I haven't been inclined to…read morevisit. I am not a huge film watcher so always give it a miss.....I was surprised how much I loved it here. So this place take the edge of the hardcore cinema Experience by playing on two on my weaknesses...hunger and thirst. To watch the film we had nachos, nuts and hummus delivered to our seats and I also had an elderflower fizz. I admit not the most manly of drinks but we were watching Bridget Jones....I think t can be excused. I really like the way that the cinema has sofas instead of chairs so you can be more comfortable watching your chick flick and I also love the way the manager comes out to say hello and introduce the film. Small finishing touches...great effect.
