Reviews of Bill's Birmingham Restaurant
S. B.
Food was delicious. Service was good. We were found a table even though we hadn't booked and it was quite busy so we appreciated it very much. Sadly, I took a star off as I don't agree with having a service charge thrown onto a bill without being verbally told or asked. I am usually a very fair tipper however, I do feel people shouldn't be made to tip. We do not tip in other industries where staff earn the same/less than servers so we shouldn't have to tip when going to a restaurant. As I said I would've tipped anyway but I don't think it should just be expected of everyone. It should be a bonus to be tipped and it should reflect a good job being done. It shouldn't be regardless of how your server treats you.
E. B.
To be honest, I have never had a bad meal at any branch of Bill's, but I think this one was the best! We ordered off the Valentine's set menu and every dish we had was exceptionally and surprisingly delicious!! Would highly recommend!!
F. P.
We didn't have long for lunch so we asked if they could rush us through and give us take away boxes so we could take the food away if we needed. Staff were very happy to oblige. Within 30mins, we had eaten and got back to work.
L. J.
I cannot fault the service one bit. The pancakes were faultless and portion size was filling; they were the best we ever had and would recommend anyone to try them. Also, the smoothies are to die for. Will 100% visit again.
N. A.
Nice place at the Bullring Birmingham. A bit pricey. Best dirty vegan burger. Brunch - advacado on soudough had no taste looked nice but not recomended
E. A.
Decided to eat here on Saturday night, no booking, although it was busy we were seated pretty quickly and service was fast! We had the buffalo chicken burger and a beef burger which were delicious. Would definitely recommend this place, no complaints!
S. B.
Came here on a busy Saturday during Pride weekend with a work colleague. We didn't have long for lunch so we asked if they could rush us through and give us take away boxes so we could take the food away if we needed. Staff were very happy to oblige. Within 30mins, we had eaten and got back to work.
Considering it is such a busy day, we are very grateful, thank you Bills!
I got the dirty vegan burger and my colleague got the dumpling and calamari starters. All were delicious 😋
S. S.
A lovely breakfast with kind and helpful staff smashed avacado and eggs never fails. Great experience not my first visit to bills and not my last ;) would recommend
M. N.
The decor is absolutely lovely and the ambience is great for a lazy brunch or lunch. They have a good variety of food and drinks on the menu. The service was really good, and the food was delicious, with good size portions. It was very busy though so probably best to make a reservation before you go.
A. P.
Really enjoyed my visit to Bill's. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We tried the burgers - which were tasty and filling. Also tried the carrot cake doughnuts - they were nice.
J. P.
Reservations definitely necessary at the weekends unless you want to queue. Nice large restaurant with quick service and the same extensive menu that you get at every Bill's. Only slight annoyance was that they wouldn't leave the bottle of tap water at our table, so we had to ask for refills.
K. H.
We enjoyed a lovely breakfast at Bill's at the weekend. The restaurant itself was very busy and there was a little wait however the service was great and there wasn't a long wait on the food. The food itself was great, fresh and delicious!
I. R.
Me and my friends decided to visit Bills for the breakfast this week on Wednesday due to the excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. The staff were attentive and always on hand especially Mahesh who was very helpful. I cannot fault the service one bit. The pancakes were faultless and portion size was filling; they were the best we ever had and would recommend anyone to try them. Also, the smoothies are to die for. Will 100% visit again.
P. S.
Really nice place, fresh, hot food. Tea also great.
Stuff very friendly, helpful, nice.
Nothing to complaint about apart from no toilet 😅
Personalized order with table service. Highly recommended.
P. S.
A great spot for brunch. Plenty of menu options catering for a range of dietary requirements. The golden latte was particularly nice!
C. C.
Lovely decor and drinks. Food menu was quite limited, especially for veggie options. Staff were so lovely but not all wearing masks.
J. D.
It's our first in door dining post pandemic lockdown. The interior of the restaurant was very nice and the service was good. The food was slightly over cooked but not too bad and unfortunately they didn't have draft beer available on the day.
N. T.
We enjoyed lunch here today. The prices are reasonable and the food was great. Portion sizes were good.
Service felt a little bit rushed but other than that I'd come here again!
L. W.
Service was great, food was nice, staff were very friendly and knew the menu well.
However... We were sat next to a door to outside, my friends chair was litterally in front of the door.
Waiters kept opening this door and leading customers through, bumping my friend many times and also making our drinks and food go cold very quickly as it was freezing outside.
D. G.
Went for a leaving party for a friend. Table of 10. The whole restaurant had run out of buns so burgers were a no go unless you wanted gluten free or naked. My steak was over cooked. Overall not great, but these are the standards for a Bills restaurant. The staff were friendly and were the best part of experience.
M. A.
We arrived 15 minutes before they opened and the manager seated us until they were ready to take our order. Unfortunately the table was dirty and neither the salt shaker nor the black pepper grinder worked. I wasn't happy about the 12.5% survice charge on the bill that mentions its optional. The bill came to around 27 pounds so I was surprised when they didn't have change for a 50 pound note and that is when I complained. The manager removed the service charge and removed the charge to our drinks.
F. S.
Great atmosphere and location, friendly staff and great food for a reasonable price. Small minor point being the narrow toilets though perfectly clean.
T. I.
Loved the ambient, we didn't eat plenty but what we had was good. Nice mocha as well. 😊
S. D.
food was amazing loved it will go back againe 😁
N. i.
Meal was ok but very pricey. 12.5% service charge in top of very expensive meal??? That wasn't fair at all
L. E.
I found it difficult to decide how many stars to give my experience at Bill's restaurant, because it was a real mixed bag. My feeling upon leaving the restaurant the first time was to give it 3 stars, but I deducted one further star the second time I visited when I discovered that they stopped serving breakfast earlier than other Bill's restaurants. However, upon reviewing the photos of the food that we had on our first visit, I remembered that the Chicken and Sesame Dumplings were truly delicious and very similar to what you might get if you ordered fried dumplings actually in Asia, so I had to bump the score back up to 3 stars.
Other than the dumplings, the calamari was rather tasty, with a crispy exterior and a soft inside. The mains were fine, nothing that you'll remember in a weeks time, unlike the dumplings... the Sea bass was definitely better than the chicken though. What really let the meal down though, was the Warm Triple Chocolate Brownie, which both my partner and I were tempted by, but subsequently had to try to force ourselves to eat because the taste fell far below expectations, and "warm" seemed to be defined as barely above room temperature.
Other than the food, the atmosphere was fine, the service was exceptionally slow considering how quiet the restaurant was, and the toilet was fairly disgusting. Considering all this, they really shouldn't add a service charge to your bill... but they do.
l. t.
The food was very tasty but most of all the customer service was amazing ☺️ there was one particular gentleman that made our dinner a very enjoy experience 😊 I will definitely visit again next time I'm in Birmingham.
c. j.
waiters are very polite, the seats are comfortable and the food is of good quality
R. O.
Food was alright - but watch out for the bill. They added a 12.5% tip to ours without asking and we paid before we realised. Good for the servers to make some extra pocket money but I do think it's proper to ask patrons if they want to tip rather than just put it in the card machine as an assumption.
S. W.
Not bad. Seated quickly. But in a back corner which I don't think helped as plates were a while to be collected. Food tasted nice. Not awful or great, odd that steak could not be cooked less than medium.
Used a blue light discount. Overall ok.
N. H.
Cosy place, good food and wonderful music & decor.
Service is great, very clean and staff and down to earth and friendly.
Came with no notice with a group of 5 and we were taken care of.
I would happily come back here again with no reservations.
Also plus point, the music is really good.
Not obnoxious or too common, it's a nice balanced place.
M. N. (. . S.
I went to at this restaurant first time 30th of July 2020, the #covid19 hygiene was so safety and they give every table one hand sanitizer which is I haven’t seen in #Birmingham any restaurants but I don’t like there the floor wasn't clean is was all the floor chips, Paper and floor were Sticky by the way the food was #yummy 😋 #Delicious so #tasty, #wonderful and the service was very bad in the restaurant there weren’t too many customers in the morning then be they take so long time to bring our drink I would like to say to all the staff looks after the customers and get full 5 stars.
Thank you all of the staff who are working this Difficulty time.

Very nice and helpful staff. Food was good. It was busy but they were able to provide decent service despite being busy. Wheelchair friendly too. A nice place to go for a bite and get together.
A. Q.
We booked a table for what turned out to be a super busy Saturday evening. The host was friendly and welcoming and we were served by a super friendly team. The food was the usual excellent quality Bill’s fare!
K. H.
Staff were very friendly and the food was wonderful. Though a little expensive all in all. Paid £7.50 for a diet coke and a side of fries.
Although, not a fan of the fact that service charge was automatically included, I'm always happy to tip regardless of service quality but having it be automatic seemed a little off-putting.
M. C.
Always a pleasure going to Bill’s. The interior is stunning, they always serve delicious food and provide top notch customer service. I’d like to mention Hannah was absolutely exceptional and so lovely! 😊
We got the Creamy Spinach Dahl with coconut Rice. It was full of flavour and spices. The portion was huge! Almost didn’t have room for dessert but glad I finished the meal with Bill’s Flowerpot. It’s a chocolate pot with passionfruit cheesecake and chocolate soil - taste like pure bliss. 100% recommend it.
Covid measures they have in place are very secure. They have hand sanitizer upon entry and a bottle on each table as well.
V. P.
Staff were amazing. Food was rather bland. I had chicken skewers. The chicken had no flavour and the mint sauce barely tasted like mint. Was an odd one.
m. g.
Absolutely beautiful food. Excellent service and staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a visit 👍
N. C.
Great service on a very busy day. Staff were attentive and polite, food was fantastic, service was very efficient. Great varied menu at reasonable prices.
M. M.
Leading with the positive, the food was nice, though the only really standout item was the truffle fries, the rest was "OK". The service was nice and friendly, but ultimately, the price was not justified for the food we got and with hindsight, I find little here to set it apart from the many other options in the area and so would be unlikely to return
P. H.
Good menu choices. Had the Monday special - Korean BBQ chicken burger. Very big portion, really tasty. Desserts are amazing, try the chocolate flower pot! I feel the wine is a little on the expensive side outside of the house offerings.
S. B.
Had a delicious medium rare burger. Our server was the best, attentive, friendly and you could just see that he enjoyed his job. Unfortunately I didn't get his name.
J. S.
Bills is fantastic. Plenty of atmosphere. Staff friendly and welcoming and the food was really nice. Love it. Will definitely be back soon
V. T.
Friendly polite and helpful staff.
Great food & drink choice.
Delicious 😋
D. W.
Lovely food, staff very attentive & focused, under difficult circumstances with current restrictions, great job guys, will definitely return
O. D.
Great service. Our waitress was hilarious. All the food was fantastic despite the small selection. Would recommend the fish pie however the smoked haddock was on the tougher side and a over done. Wasn't great but the rest made up for it. Will be going back to a local Bills again
M. C.
Food was good, service was a bit slow.
Would have given 4 star, but they tack on a service charge that you have to request they remove.
B. S.
Unfortunately a little underwhelming and forgettable. Food I feel was overpriced for the quality, presentation, etc of what we got. On a plus note I think it would only take a few tweaks to their business to make it much improved, but at the moment you can get better elsewhere.
A. I.
Great location. Good food. Good customer service.
Fried cauliflower came with an amazing red tomato sauce, really fresh and flavourful.
Fish pie was decent, good quality but not outstanding.
Halloumi burger was very good.
Pecan pie was a nice way to end the meal. Sticky toffee was really soft and gooey with loads of yummy sauce.
M. P.
Welcomed by staff with smile and then when they knew about our story how we left cafe rouge and I was really frustrated and hungry. The staff made it really warm and fast service. Food was spot on and customer service was above wow. Must go and must eat.. love it .. thank you for today
C. M.
A pleasant, lively restaurant with good lighting on account of the huge windows. I like restaurants that have a bright, airy feel to them. I had the vegan breakfast and it was pretty good.
C. M.
Great atmosphere and staff welcoming and efficient. The food was great value .
S. A.
Excellent customer service, waitress Hannah was lovely and helpful. Food served quickly and so we're drinks. The set menu is great value. Very enjoyable birthday meal. Would definitely recommend!
R. G.
Bill's is a very nice place to go to if you're in the bullring, the food is really nice and the staff is amazing, they have a good team. Try to avoid busy periods though cause then the wait for your food can be long. If you don't mind the wait then u can go anytime their chefs do a fine job! Went their with some friends and we enjoyed the drinks and the food without question. Unfortunately didn't have time to take out more pictures was hungry haha! Atmostphere is vibrant most of the time peaceful place otherwise it pretty noisy deppends on the ppl in there at the time.
L. C.
First thing the pancake horrible it's like rubber but the Asian ribs is unbelievable. It don't have much drinks to offer, it don't have draught and the chill be aren't chill....
They put service charge on every bill, even on a table of two and to top it off the service don't go to the waiter :(
G. I.
Had a big treat of a breakfast here! Service was good, food was really lovely. Had the granola for starters (yeah, a breakfast starter!), which took a little while to arrive but was worth the wait, really sweet and tasty. Had the garden plate veggie breakfast whcih had avocado, beans, mushrooms, rosti, toast, tomatoes ... really filling. It's pricey here but for a special treat it was perfect.
J. D.
Friendly service and amazing food, great atmosphere and place to eat or have a few drinks. Would recommend for a brunch or a dinner; delicious!
A. m.
Loved it food was ok for what it is and the price you pay but you can't beet good hard working attentive staff .Well done Birmingham Bills .five happy customers .
K. S.
Food was ok and the gentleman that showed us to our seats was very friendly. The ladies on the particular day not so friendly.
S. R.
Fantastic place, amazing service, lovely food and all round nice atmosphere, would highly recommend.
R. W.
Came here twice today ...breakfast was amazing ...pancakes for to die for and presentation fantastic ...I had salmon and poached eggs with hollandaise sauce ...probably the best breakfast I've had to date ....reasonably priced and staff very very friendly and polite ...service good.
P. C.
Great Ambience, Great Food, Attentive Service. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal. This was our 1st visit, will definitely will return.
H. R.
Beautiful and decent quality food at a very reasonable price! Outside seating was adequate and the outside heaters were a positive! I went for the Mac and cheese, it was stunning! It was nice to sit and watch the world go by. There was a slight wait as it was very busy but the waitress was very attentive. I would definitely recommend!
B. C.
We only had drinks, so don't know about the food, but all staff were professional and polite.
L. B.
Lovely food and well looked after by staff. An enjoyable experience.
A. H.
I absolutely love everything here. The staff are always friendly and the food is beautiful and fresh! One of my favourite places to eat at the moment.
B. J.
Staff were friendly, the restaurant was lovely but I personally felt my meal lacked flavour, the burger could have done with a lot more seasoning it was bland but my husband enjoyed his meal and so did the kids.
My brother had a brownie dessert and said he was in heaven which is a rare comment for him so clearly something was perfect.
S. S.
Lovely food, friendly service and super quick! A fabulous experience. Been before... Will definitely go again!
A. C.
It's OK, for a quick lunch, bit dark and gloomy. Food wasn't amazing and pricey. Staff very friendly.
K.
Came for dinner on Thursday 4th August, we ordered off the set menu, which was three courses for £14.95. Staff were friendly and pleasant, the mushroom starter and pancakes were lush.
M. M.
Nice staff and diners were spaced out. I had the pan fried chicken. Have to say, it tasted reheated but it wasn't terrible. The crumble was lovely. They also serve CBD infused drinks.
M. S.
Service was great, food was great.
C. G.
Great dining experience here. I had some lovely chicken dumplings for a starter that were just the right amount of crispy. Main course I had macaroni and cheese with bacon which was piping hot and very tasty. Came in at just under £30 and it was very quick and friendly service. Would certainly go back again.
C. E.
Wonderful Friday Afternoon meal. Very clean and they were checking temps on entry. Great value. Great serving sizes and the food was all gorgeous.
Must also make a mention for the excellent service from all of the staff.
A. D.
We went to Bill's for breakfast based on the positive reviews and enticing pictures of pancakes. I'm sorry to say that the food was quite disappointing.
While the pancakes *look* amazing, they're actually quite dry. Doubling the syrup and offering a side of whipped butter would have gone a long way toward improving the dish. I will say that the fruit was fresh and tasty.
The hot chocolate was very mediocre--fine, but nothing special.
The appetizer mini sausages we got to round out breakfast were quite tasty, at least.
Service was good. The restaurant was packed, though, so the entire meal felt a little rushed an chaotic.
All in all, this is a fair food option, but you can likely find better offerings in the area.
R. M.
Sat outside in the sun. Ate on my own but didn't feel rushed and the staff were attentive but also let me sit and enjoy a long relaxing lunch. Probably the best meal I've eaten in a long time. Highly recommended the seabass with pea risotto.
T.
Food was average, really basic clean food. Service was ok, did take about 30 mins before we got our food.
N. M.
Bills is always great for brunch and had no trouble getting a table for 8.
G. W.
Popped in for brunch. The restaurant was really busy, which was nice to see.
We sat outside, it was nice. The brunch was tasty and large, though not cheap. I also drank a flat white, which was just a white americano, but I couldn’t be bothered to say anything. The brunch took 30 minutes to arrive and the bill took 20 minutes to arrive (after a light reminder). This is a popular place to eat, due to its location but the service could be polished; there’s nothing worse than waiting forever for a bill. Maybe bring in mobile payments, avoiding the need for a server to attend.
C.
This place was wonderful. The staff were lovely and the food was awesome.
Nothing negative to say, at all
R. C.
Great food and quality, the staff altered a dish as it had butter and it was a little dry but was fine once adding gravy
L. C.
Nice food and good service but far to close sitting next to people you dont know , you can here everything there talking about
J. R.
When me,and my friend go to stafford we,always go in the yard great atmosphere good food and the cocktails are lovely
G. W.
Nice food cooked well in a very relaxed atmosphere. Staff very helpful
L. G.
Amazing food and lovely service. My mom loved her afternoon, thank you 😊
E. V.
Staff were awesome. Only had drinks and didn't eat here. My glass of wine was £6.
J. W.
They asked us about allergies. (I have 2) and changed food to suit my problem. Food was very good
G. P.
The staff here could not have been nicer or more accomodating.
Starters and desert were really nicely cooked and tasty but two of the main courses - fish and chicken - were just terrible. Dry, overcooked and the fish was just plain burnt. N o self respecting 'chef' would let this leave the kitchen.When I had a quiet word with the waitress she said she would 'see what she could do'. I wish I hadn't said anything as the management took off the service charge ! Thus punishing the people not responsible but who actually gave great service !
I did not want to make a fuss as this was a results day treat for my daughter and she would get upset but it left me feeling that I would not go back again.
S. R.
Love the food here. Just ensure you check the bill is correct before paying. Lovely staff and service.
k. r.
Really tasty. Great dietary options - staff take it really seriously.
We took over a whole section of the place for hours and the staff were really friends and chill.
Amazing coffee.
K.
Staff are really friendly and hospitable buy the food did not wow us I'm afraid.
L. C.
Stopped here for lunch, excellent service and good quality food.
F. L.
Great restaurant, great food, great staff. Will definately be visiting again 💯
S. K.
Very busy Sunday before Xmas, but very efficient and tables made ready quickly. Friendly staff and food excellent. I had Eggs Benedict.
S. S.
Nice restaurant, very clean, nice atmosphere and polite staff. Food is nice and set menu price is pretty reasonable - 2 course £20, 3 course £25
K. O.
Nice place. The outside and inside are quite contrasting the outside area is nice with lots going on and the hustle and bustle of a busy city centre, where as the inside is cozy and ambient with quirky decor. Food is nice, but last time my breakfast was average and overpriced. Overall I’d recommend but I do again think it’s not great value for momey.
L. R. (.
Great customer service, lovely food, good selection of food. Nicely laid out restaurant, spaced evenly without sitting on top of one another. Our servers were really friendly, chatty and fun but still polite and professional.
T. *.
Lovely food and delicious cocktails
Good service
Definitely visit again
F.
Food was amazing! Nice staff, cozy environment.
M. S.
Overall I did enjoy my experience at bills. The setting was really lovely and really good standards of hygiene, I especially appreciated the sanitiser on the table. The service was also amazing, really fast and the waiting staff were really friendly. One female staff member was particularly attentive and made sure we got the most out of our experience which was really lovely.
The food was somewhat ok. I was a bit disappointed with my main which was the chicken, it was not overly exciting and not something I would expect to be presented in a resteraunt and did feel like something I could make at home. The chicken itself was very dry and lacked seasoning and flavour. The other meals I had were good portions and my friend who had the vegan option really loved her meal.
The drinks were absolutely delightful and made very quickly.
I would definitely like to come back again but maybe try something else on the menu.
J. S.
Portion sizes need to be addressed - too small for the price, particularly on anything meant for 'sharing' but quality and taste good. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Will come back to try out breakfast sometime! :)
D. P.
Lovely breakfast, nice venue and great service 🙂
P.
The eggs royal were really good, the pancakes they were also very good, the service was nice and fast.
M.
The menu choice wasn't as diverse as I would have liked it to be. Food was tasty and a good portion size. Service was definitely exceptional.
R. G.
Me and my friends had a lovely brunch here. Its a very quirky place with good food. Be warned, the pancakes are much bigger and more filling than I expected!
D. “. S.
The food is oerfect, servise quick and staff polite...they were checking on us all the time.....definetly reccomend this restaurant
L. C.
Fantastic, food, decor and atmosphere. Had a really tasty breakfast with friends
B. C.
An extremely odd experience. Greeted and seater by the host in a brilliant fashion, waitress Sam - I think and someone who appeared to be fairly new, were very attentive and friendly. Food fell way below what we have come to expect from previous Bills visits. Truffle Fries was fairly 'skimping' on sauce, sausages and dumplings were ok, kids fish, two very different sizes on the plate. We asked for it all together but came out in a couple of trips after Sam noticed we were 'missing' part of our order. Paid no notice to the service charge on the bill, not objecting but not highlighted either.
All in all, it was ok...
G. R.
Great location and amazing halloumi sticks! Nice place to come when you're hungover as they do an amazing and quite spicy bloody Mary. Unfortunately the entrees were a bit mediocre. Would not recommend the chicken burger or the Mac n cheese. They being said, I have heard the breakfast is really nice here however you have to be sure to come before 1pm if you want to sample that menu.
H. S.
Finally found Cheese Maccheroni here. Staff was hard working to serve well. Nice seating areas.
T. F.
They make the best cocktail !!!
F. B.
Staff were really friendly. Thought it was a little expensive for what you got. However the atmosphere was nice.
Y. R.
Excellent food, maybe pancakes are too sweet but I love it anyway.
Staff is friendly too I recommand it !
S. B.
Very welcoming, friendly, helpful stuff, excellent food virtually inside The Bull Ring shopping centre.
p. a.
We visited here during an overnight for the photography show at the NEC. A very quiet Monday night. The food was ok, calamari was crisp & not over cooked & the cod was good too. The only downside was no draught beer or lager that night,
M. D.
Bill's breakfasts are the go to breakfast place for anyone travelling in the Bullring. Whether you're looking for pancakes, a full english breakfast, or some other type of breakfast dish this is the place to go. During my stay in Birmingham I visited on both mornings, experiencing excellent service, great food, and a minimal wait time even with decently long queues.
All in all my experience at Bill's was above and beyond the best Breakfast experience I have had.
M. J.
I like this place! They serve marvelous food, their menu is large, The chef in that spot is very trained, I love a lot tasting all their dishes. The food is consistently fresh and tasty, the service towards the guests is nice. I often go to this restaurant and I not even once was disappointed. I recommend it with no hesitation.
D.
Really good food. The crispy calamari is very good and the buttermilk fried burger is good except the bun is quite dense.
T. B.
Great service good food and beverages moderate prices can be expensive
E. F.
Food fantastic! Staff very friendly and accommodating. Went for snack at lunch and we liked it so much we went back for dinner!
K. S.
Staff very professional and pleasant. However, If you like pancetta for bacon and overcooked eggs; then this is your place to visit for a full breakfast. In addition, didn't particularly enjoy paying £37.80 for coffee, orange juice and 2 traditional breakfasts.
J. D.
Really good brunch, got some buttermilk pancakes and egg royale
H. C.
Food was amazing staff where brilliant

Nice service, beautiful place!!. My food however was not great, pretty tasteless. But my sons food was spot on.

Food was lovely. Great decor and service.

Lovely food. Lovely service

A charming and characterful restaurant with crowd pleasers and quirky menu choices. Location is right in the city centre. Staff are incredibly friendly. Cocktails are worth a try, as is the heated outside seating.
S.
Great food and atmosphere! I don't agree with the added 12.5% tip automatically added to the bill though. But the female who was on front of house this morning was just so lovely.
E. M.
Great location for drinks in the sunshine.
Went here on a busy Saturday during bank holiday weekend and waited 10mins for a table outside- was busy so this was not bad for 1pm. Drinks came fairly quickly and were cold. Waiter very attentive. Then a new waiter came along (other must’ve been on break) Ordered a sharing platter for food and after 30mins reminded this waiter about it. He replied with ‘the kitchen is very busy’ and walked off. Other waiter came back and we told him what had happened and he apologised, chased up the food and found it hadn’t been told to kitchen. We said we didn’t want it then and manager was called who gave us our drinks for free. They dealt with the situation well, it was busy but I think they were lucky we weren’t too fussed.

Food was beautiful. Everything tasted amazing and cooked from fresh would definitely eat here again..service was a little disappointing but everyone was nice. We had to wait a long time between courses and had to ask staff members for cutlery and extra drinks etc as nobody came with the items. It was busy so I understand that but we spent over an hour and a half to eat a quick lunch when we were ready to leave much sooner. Very long wait for everything but staff were still lovely

Another of my favourite breakfast places in Brum. If the weather is warm enough, love to come here early, before it gets too busy, and grab a table outside. They do the most amazing French Toast. Yum, yum yum 😁
M. M.
Delicious vegan options 😋
M. G.
It took quite a while until the breakfast arrived; and my poached eggs were cold on my Avocado Toast. But it tasted quite good however I would prefer less oil. The Chocolate Brownie milkshake was good!
D.
Nothing on tap, service was okay but they ran out of some ingredients and then decided to create something else but not tell us... when we asked why our drinks were completely different after the waiter came back with the food they told us they'd ran out of something. I'd expect them to tell us rather then just serving us something different and saying nothing?
I. H.
Decent experience this time. Staff friendly and efficient. Meal reading in a flash. But the big bonus for me is they serve Budvar Dark. 4 star because the value for money is not great. But as expected for this type of restaurant.
D. O.
Very nice lunch time meal. Staff very pleasant great atmosphere for a lunch time very reasonable price.

Great food, friendly staff,

It was my first time to try Shepherd's pie and It was really simple food but tasty.
A. G.
Average pancakes... nothing special. They could improve it with some more choices for toppings and they could load it with more stuff on top instead of a 2-3 stripes of bacon (salty one) or a few fruits (sweet one).
C. S. R.
Second time here, food is great, and the space is gorgeous. The outdoor feels so good to have a glass of wine enjoying a sunny day. The service was good, everyone was nice

I enjoyed it here,got seated quickly was quite busy took a while to order I wanted the breakfast but they'd stopped serving that by time we got there so had the cheeseburger and chips with coke the atmosphere was nice and liked the fact you didn't have to prebook to go in like most places we went that day. Def go bk and recommend to others

Just picked up an amazing takeaway burger from Bills in the Bullring.
Super amazing and friendly staff- the front of house delivered as well as the kitchen.
Tasty food worth the price paid.
M. C.
My Daughter and I visited Bill's for lunch, the food was absolutely beautiful, and the staff couldn't be more friendly. Fantastic place folks.
A. K.
Lively, friendly place with a great choice on the menu xx

Excellent food, maybe pancakes are too sweet but I love it anyway.
Staff is friendly too I recommand it !
M. A.
First I was bought out a warm glass but was fastly changed by a waiter with a big smile who just wanted to help dint catch his name but as I watched him run around I felt he deserved a mention he did have cartoon tattoos one being (pop eye) and dark hair. Keep your employees happy like him and he keep your business booming!
M. B.
Very good service. I celebrated my birthday here.

I mean, it was super stylish and all. But honestly, the food didn't taste all that fantastic. The fries were heavenly though.

Lovely food, especially chicken dumplings and chicken skewers. Amazing service above all , we had Angela as our waitress, really nice personality , friendly and welcoming , polite and really attentive . Staff in general nice , great location to stop for drinks and a quick snacks.
One of my favourites now that I gave it a try .
j. h.
The food is consistently good. The service is friendly but a little slow. Don't go if you're in a rush
L. C.
The 3 course meal was lovely and well priced. The temperature reading and sanitiser at each table was also a nice touch.
In addition, the customer service was very pleasant which is obviously difficult in these times
A special mention to a waitress who I believe is called Leah - she was utterly breathtaking.
S. Q.
Excellent breakfast place is spotlessly clean and all the staff are very friendly

I hd the scrambled eggs with salmon on toasted muffin. It was soooo good. Highly recommend it. Comes with a really tasty sauce that you can dip your fries in. Service was excellent. Would definitely go there again.

Nice food, relatively speedy service, friendly hostess. They forgot one of my breakfast items but this was quickly rectified when mentioned to a staff member.

Great service, beautiful food- fantastic mozzarella cheese! Had two lovely cocktails. Great girls lunch with daughter !
O. S.
Food was great but:
1) there was a hair in my food and rather than check what we'd like they simply replaced and gave more fries, which felt like we just got someone else's meal. Manager was very dismissive also.
2) portion size of the fish finger and prawn sandwich was terrible. The price wasn't an issue but it felt a little stingy.
Otherwise, staff were friendly and polite and we had a nice experience. Wouldn't order the same meal again tho.
J. B.
Wonderful service! Our waitress made us feel ever so comfortable. Food couldn't have been cooked better even the side salad with bacon was beyond amazing. Go to Bill's you won't be disappointed.
V. I.
Fantastic choice and amazing food. Coffee was perfect too! Well presented with excellent service. Whole menu of gluten free options so highly recommended for coeliacs. Prices are very reasonable and an optional 10% service charge is added onto the receipt.
V. D.
Loved it. No need to book ahead. Decor is very much organised chaos. Menu has a wide variety and vegan options.
H.
Ah, second time I've been to Bills and the staff were absolutely lovely. It's very good they asked us if we had any dietary requirements BEFORE even handing us the menu. A lady next to us had a shellfish allergy so before she even got a menu, she was asked and then promptly given a menu which catered for her dietary requirements. Excellent
J. A.
Pretty nice place, super busy and seemed a little understaffed. Long waits but other than that a nice meal.
A. M.
Service and food we're great. We went back the next day for breakfast!
E. M.
Friendly staff. Food very tasty but a little pricey.

Very nice place, lovely food, polite and friendly staff, although I wasnt happy that optional service charge was added to my bill without the option given
D. W.
Food was okay small portion, drinks took ages to arrive and if you enjoy being sat around middle aged women having a gossip this is the place for you.
M. J. H.
Really enjoyable experience the ,the environment the waiting staff the steak I had was delicious though it could have been warmer.on this occasion , they have some special value 2 and 3 Couse options on selected days. Premium affordable pricing So expect a treat and be willing to pay for it
B. B.
This is a good restaurant/ bar. The food menu is safe, not terribly exciting but tasty anyway. Plenty of truffle mash options. If you like posh English food then this is very good. It is in a handy location, in the Bull Ring, when you fancy some good food to rest your tired shopper feet and don't want to go too far from the shops for your rumbly tummy.
K. N.
Had lunch here for two on last day before national lockdown. Restaurant was clean and we felt safe at our table. Carrot soup, and smashed avacado, egg and feta cheese salad for me, Hubby had tuna tacos and pan fried chicken with mushroom sauce. All food was delicious and quickly served by our friendly and attentive waiter, Chris. Well done Bill's, hope to see you again when Boris allows you to re-open!
W.
Visited on a busy Saturday at lunch time with two others. The service was great, albeit busy. The food was great. One of my party tried a vegetarian dish (Glow Bowl) which was very highly rated!
The price of the drinks are very pricey, 4.25 for a half of beer, but other than that I cant fault the place. Great place for lunch.

g. m.
Good and varied menu, excellent service despite being full
L. F.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Restaurant a little grubby food was average and prices were fair. What I think let it down was there was no atmosphere was not sure what theme genre Bills was trying to be.
T. B.
First time having lunch at bills and it was amazing.

Great service, great food, great price! And the perfect place for a decent catch up with a friend :)

Good place for small groups. The food is great!
R. G.
Best breakfast I've ever had. Quite expensive and worth it. Comfortable with attentive and thoughtful staff. Very good menu with alternatives to standard cafe breakfast. Vegan and vegetarian options. Coffee not so hot...... and I mean luke warm latter on the micro scale so that's one to improve. However still absolutely brilliant and also serious attention to detail on food allergies. Generally I'm not generous on scoring but if they get the coffee right may have to work out how to give more than full marks.
R. T.
I have visited a number of these restaurants in different towns and obviously as the formula obviously works you know what to expect. The rustic charm of the interior and the generally excellent service is a given. The menu is consistent yet not spectacular and on the pricey side. The best value is the fixed price menu, although as to be expected limited in choice. Also worth noting is that a discretionary 10% charge is added to the bill.
A. E. H.
Excellent food, super friendly staff!
M.
They have great brunches. The panckes and bacon are delcious and their hot chocolates are not too sweet and not too bitter either. The service was pretty fast and the set up was very appealing. Overall I would come back here again.
R. W.
Slow to take our order, but food was lovely! Very friendly staff too.

Good breakfast. Very busy but we were seated in 5 minutes. Excellent service and good quality food. Felt a little rushed at the end and our bill didnt arrive 20 minutes after we finished. We waited but still no bill. Eventually had to get up and remind them 3 times. Other that, well worth a visit.
C. S.
Been here twice now and the customer service from the staff is what makes this place special. The food is excellent too. We have a young baby and we were offered the opportunity to have our food placed in a warmer if he interfered with our dining, and such attention to detail as such is wonderful. Highly recommend dining here
N. S.
If you already know what Bill's is like, you don't need to read further. It's another one of their great restaurants!
If you're not sure, then as long as you like food you'll be just fine! It caters for carnivores, vegetarians & vegans. A really good a varied menu around mainly British classics. However it's probably better to label it European. From salads to burgers with some Asian flavours chucked in too.
Great range of drinks too. Also you could just pop in for afternoon tea after a hard fee hours shopping.
Just be aware at peak times you might have to queue for a table...

Popped in for a glass of wine on a busy Thursday afternoon. I was grated by a great smile and lovley attentive staff. I was sat opposite the bar and brought a glass of water while I ordered, a simple nice touch. The wine was delightful and a large glass didn't break the bank at all. A great spot for a quick coffee or any beverage after a busy day.
r. g.
Really good customer service! Everyone was friendly and attentive. However my breakfast levy it down. I had pancake stack and streaky bacon for my meal and it wasnt nice at all. The pancakes were undercooked and stodgy and the streaky bacon bland and like rubber. My latte was Luke warm but due to being in a rush I just paid and left . I personally won't be in a rush to return
S. K.
Food was very nice and fresh and the lunch menu was very good value albeit the portion sizes were a bit small and we were still hungry afterwards. Desserts were beautiful especially the pancakes.
We waited to be seated which was to be expected however there were lots of free tables we could see on the balcony so not sure why.
When seated the table was not clean and hadn't been wiped down. We ordered drinks and waited almost 20 minutes for them!!!
Staff were friendly but service was extremely slow. It got to the point where we had to ask for our bill before dessert came to ensure we left in a timely fashion.
Overall decent food, decent value but could do with bigger portions, friendly staff but very slow service. Would I rush back, probably not.
k. “. C.
Went for breakfast here, it was fantastic. Three of us had different things and we were all happy with everything. I would recommend the bill's vegetarian breakfast it was simply divine, left me wanting more just because it was delicious! The only thing I would say is the toast was incredibly hard to cut into! Service was brilliant too, friendly staff all round. Great atmosphere and vibe inside - loved that you could buy certain groceries as that is part of the story of the place! Excellent, and look forward to going again.
T. S.
It's becoming a regular place to meet and eat with my partner we love the location, the staff and the food as we love sharing dishes and platters or smaller sized dishes. Staff are very friendly and efficient. It's no a cheap place to eat, But is not a rip-off either.
If you have not been yet give it a try. There are bills all over the place, often very busy which is a good sign ?
J. J.
A great food experience. Very fresh food, good taste and nicely presented. Service was also very good and friendly. If I had to be a bit of a critique, the only thing which I can pinpoint is that the portions were slightly small for this type of restaurant. Other then that we were so pleased that we went on other days during our stay in the city.
P. W.
Great amount of choice on the lunch menu. I had the pancakes with fruit and they were really good, and a generous portion that I couldn't finish. My friends' meals were also really good, including Bill's burger with sweet potato fries and the avocado fish off the lunch menu. Good choice of drinks too, including lots of Bill's own stuff including the pink lemonade that I had. They're own red berry fruit tea was also delicious and genuinely tasted of fruit! We were seated really quickly despite it being a busy Saturday lunchtime with a queue out of the door of people waiting. Service was pretty efficient, but we did have to ask for a number of things (water, extra syrup, the bill) multiple times before they were brought over, hence 4 stars not 5.
M.
Top notch. Had Eggs Royale, was expecting perfection and got it.
Seriously, cannot find a single issue with this place as food was served for a large group quickly and all at once with no errors.
Staff were excellent. Really friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much.
It was a miserable day outside, but that was soon forgotten with the food, service and company.
Thank you.
k.
The staff are really lovely and the rosemary salted chips are to dye for will definitely come again next time I'm in buringham
N. B.
This diner is in a shopping mall. The staff is very courteous and friendly. The coffee was good. The pancakes looked amazing, but were actually amazingly dry. I would certainly eat here if I happened to be nearby when I got hungry, but I wouldn't recommend going out of your way, particularly if the picture of the pancakes is what's drawing you in.
D. I.
The best place in Birmingham to relax and enjoy the life. Thank you for your professional service and charming staff.
M. C.
We had breakfast here, there pancakes are delicious
L.
I came here with my mum and sister. We had desserts and soft drinks and a pot of tea. Yes you can just go in for drinks only or starter only or desserts only. The staff were lovely as usual.
We'd earlier been elsewhere for starters and mains and so decided to finish off here as it's my mum's favourite place.
A. M.
Loved the buttermilk pancakes! Lovely views overlooking the cathedral (definitely ask for the window table).
S. O. G.
Oh wow! What an amazing restaurant. My partner and I came in and had been searching for somewhere to eat. As we were new to Birmingham we didn't really know we're to start. We spotted Bill's and even though it was busy we thought it looked great. It was very busy inside and we had accepted that it would be a long time before our food arrived. We have both worked in the industry for far to long and we were happy to wait. We ordered and our food came out within 5 minutes. That's un heard of for quieter venues for your food to come out that quickly, let alone busy ones! The food was absolutely stunning (we both had eggs Benedict). The staff were absolutely lovely. I genuinely can't find a fault with our visit. Even when we were waiting to be seated we were greated by a lovely member of staff who was happy to chat with us and she kept us up dated with how long it would take us to be seated. What an amazing team! Thank you so much!
C. C.
Excellent place for food! The staff were lovely, bubbly and helpful and the food is excellent. They have a great choice of vegan and vegetarian food as well as meat stuff for all you meat lovers! Definitely coming back here!

Been there twice, absolutely the best customer service. Food is tasty too. I will never forget the lovely waiter who offered to warm my food up if it gets cold while I nursed my baby. Meant a lot. Thank you.

We went there today for breakfast but had missed it! We decided to go somewhere else, however on going to leave the staff checked with the chef who was happy to still do the breakfasts for us. Amazing service from all the staff and the food was really nice. Really impressed as most restaurants would have let us leave without trying to accommodate. 5*

Well after going out last night thought I would go for a nice breakfast. What came out on my plate not really what I expected. I do like bills and I know you are not a cafe. But what I got for £12-95 not my cup of tea at all. Bacon was cold both eggs hard and cold and the two little potato thing well . Merry Christmas
D.
Very nice decor well layout restaurant ,friendly helpful staff.
For me almost £5 for a VERY small bottle of cider and almost £12 for burger and chips ( which was nice....but nothing special).Very over priced would not go back.
A. K.
Had a delicious vegetarian lunch here today, it was so good. We were served by a lovely girl called Imani. She gave us brilliant service and she’s got an awesome attitude. Real asset to Bill’s, give that girl a promotion. Wish her all the best and we look forward to visiting again.
D. D. P.
Samanta... samanta and samanta again she made our evening lovely she was friendly and nice and she deserve a good 5 star and all the best...I will deffo be back and she is the one 😁 !
Best chat and best service ever had....
E. H.
Went in for breakfast, the staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The food was good and well presented. We weren't so keen on the juice but they were happy to fix it when we asked, with no fuss.
It was such a pleasant experience we went back the following day and the experience was just as good.
J. C.
Good food, great atmosphere. Took my mum here for her birthday and she really enjoyed it. Only let down is the wait for food, other than that I would highly recommend.
K. B.
A nice place to grab lunch. The main reason I went in was the decor, and it always looks popular. Saturdays there's always a queue outside.
The food is good and the staff helpful. However, the staff are usually quite busy because of the number of customers. I intend to go back and explore the menu further.
I wouldn't queue though. Unless you can sit outside and the weather is nice, its not worth it. I struggle to understand the popularity to be honest. Its nice, but not a twenty-deep queue nice. There are better places in Birmingham.
E. B.
I came here to warm up after the Christmas Markets, and it was lovely. The staff were excellent, which really makes a difference and I think they did a grand job. I had lots of questions about the menu and they were so patient. I had the halloumi salad which was substantial, and I didn't need a pudding- I was full!
I would recommend the Warm Gin and Tonic, it was the perfect remedy for a cold night out, and I hope they continue it past Christmas as it would be perfect in the dark January days.
S. P.
Great place to stop off for a bite to eat. I have never once had a bad meal or drink from here. The breakfast is amazing, the lunch is amazing, the drinks are amazing and the the staff could not be more attentive. The opening hours are also great if you like to get ahead of the crowds and rock up early to complete your shopping.
J. G.
Great food and drinks, great and friendly staff
J. J.
One of my favourite places to eat! Good food and Drink at a reasonable price whether your just out down town or going out for something a little bit special to eat! Get yourself pampered at this rustic diner. If it's your first time you won't be disappointed with this choice! Easy to get to. Staff are always very pleasant. What a joy!

I really like the new decor. Serve very good as always.
However, my companion's meal was a little disappointing - over-cooked scrambled eggs and portion of smoked salmon definitely less than last time we visited.

I had lunch here and enjoyed the experience greatly. The place is casual with a very comfortable feel, the staff are friendly and efficient, the menus varied and the prices very reasonable. The food arrived after only a short wait, was well presented and very good; I shall be eating here again.
C. W.
Lovely, friendly welcome. Staff made sure everything was ok, which it was. It was more than ok. The warm fruit scones, clotted cream and jams was just gorgeous and the coffee just perfect. Will recommend
l. b.
The food was lovely, nothing wrong with it. The place was nice, clean, the staff were friendly and prompt. But nothing stood out. It was average, hence the 3 stars. I would definitely go back if there was an occasion to, but it wouldn't necessarily be to of my list if I had to choose the location.
P. S.
Had the Bills breakfast it was amazing from the crispy streaky bacon to the pesto roasted tomatoes. I also had the best hot chocolate I 've ever tasted. The place was modern but made to look like some Spanish street very clever. Waitress was very friend the food came very quickly and was lovely and hot ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pretty decent food, especially their vegan options. Nice atmosphere and pretty good service. Not much to criticise, not much to get excited over either.

Fabulous atmosphere, very kind and patient staff and extremely conscious of allergies. They also let me order from the lunch menu ten minutes early as there were very few vegan options for breakfast. Would go again!
Z. Z.
Salmon bagels were good. Veg breakfast not great
J. P.
Mains reason for going was the pancakes, no savoury pancakes available disappointed. But then ordered a chicken main, amazing. Had a sweet pancake for dessert, were not great as far as pancakes go. Wouldn't go back for pancakes but mains for sure.
E. E.
Love this place. Food is amazing! Staff are lovely abs will cater to your needs. It's clean and tables were well presented ready for people to be seated. Definitely recommend Bills for something to eat and drink 😊
T. A.
Went to Bill's @the Bull Ring with my daughter & mom, service was brilliant, staff friendly & professional. For starters we had, the liver pate, calamari & the fish cakes, for mains we all had the Bill's original burgers, the food was terrific & was hot & fresh. Will definitely visit this restaurant again. All in all a great experience
M. B.
Great food, average service but the music was too loud. The restaurant was a nice place, but when you're our you want to be able to talk. Unfortunately, the music was just a bit too loud to make conversation easy.
L. B.
Customer service suffered a bit due to busy Christmas period but food was delicious.
We had booked in advance for 1pm and were still waiting outside at nearly 1.10pm when another table from the long queue were let through first. We were fobbed off and told it was because they wanted us to have a nice table by the window (I would rather they were just honest). As it turned out, the table by the window had the menu so we felt like goldfish with people standing their every few minutes. Drinks took an age to come out (nothing too complicated) and arrived a few minutes before our main course. As we were finishing we realised we never received the water we had asked for. We really struggled to get anyone to come and take our payment despite attracting their attention and just got up to pay in the end.
I am still giving it a 4 star as have eaten here a few times before without problems and on this occasion the food was delicious as it had always been.
B. S.
Lovely breakfast every time I've visited. The staff are the friendliest people, always happy to help in any way. Quick service but no rush to leave felt
S. S.
Bill's is Brill. Been to both the Glasgow and this Birmingham branch now and both are fantastic. Very professional, fast and friendly staff. Food to die for and reasonably priced. Great relaxed atmosphere. Perfect for a brunch before hitting the shops after a lie in.
V.
A lovely place to eat with great breakfast! Huge pancakes and awesome drinking and food specials. The staff was very polite and even though the place was quite crowded it has a charming atmosphere. I definitely recommend it!
S. T.
Great customer service, staff member on front desk was brilliant, he was very energetic and bubbly! Made the start of my experience an enjoyable one. This followed by another staff member who was engaging and able to recommend selection from the menu. Food was great!!! Happy days!!!
m. h.
Great venue, lovely food and attentive staff. My biggest issue how ever is the discretionary service charge they add onto the bill, which one would assume is a tip for your server...turns out it is not....and is in fact Bills way of getting you (the consumer) to pay for their operational costs such as uniforms, training etc, therefore enhancing their profits. Lets face it, when you pay for the food and drink consumed, the profit margin on this should pay for their operational costs....so very disappointed with Bills ethical stance on this as they are trying to make us pay twice. So enjoy the food, don't pay the service charge, and if you've had great service, leave some cash for your server on the table away from the greedy corporate hands.
A. B.
Extremely good value for money with great dishes some very healthy and super yummy. Service was good, design of the interiors cool and good views of the Chuch opposite. All in all a very good experience, and a 2 meal deal for under 15 pounds including service. Bravo!
A. C.
Went there for lunch with my friend and we took the sharing platter - very nice chicken skewer and calamari! We also had a side of sweet potato fries on the side to share! More than enough for two people.

Decent food and service at reasonable price. The burgers are good and their vegan burgers are a pretty good imitation of beef burgers.

Great staff and lovely restaurant, but I didn't enjoy the cooked breakfast, apart from the egg and tomatoes. Bacon was hard , had to break it to try and eat it. Two small very mushy sausages and the toast was very very soggy!
M. F.
Friendly staff, interesting menu, nice atmosphere, central location, what not to like. I recommend the Fish Pie, hot and not exactly packed with fish but pretty awesome.
Outside seating probably great when not in mid winter, inside warm cosy and just pleasant. Recommended.

Food is OK. Have been here before and found that when you are presented the bill for your food, the Optional service charge is being automatically added to your bill if you make a cash payment. Bill's should remember this is an OPTIONAL payment and should not be automatically added to a bill. This is the second time this has happened so is normal procedure here.

Lovely waitress. Decent enough for a chain.

I enjoyed my time here l. The staff was really nice and a good service. I'll only had drinks, but I definitely will come back for diner sometime. A special thanks for A.J. for his good, kind service and advice for the nice places I need to good.

Super dining experience! From the moment we walked in the door! Incredible staff and superb food!! Visited few Bills in London but this is better. Well done!
W. S.
The staff were really friendly and attentive but the food was just not that nice. I had the English Breakfast and it didn't help that the whole thing was brought to me piled on to the toast, like an open sandwich! Toast should ALWAYS be on the side - preferably on a separate plate. Probably won't be going again. Sorry 😔
T. K.
Lovely atmosphere. Very helpful and friendly staff. Had Lemon chicken for main course was tasty and lovely. The only bad point was that my chips were burnt and too greasy. Which manager apologised and offered us an alternative.
T. H.
The staff was friendly and welcoming.
We didn't have to wait to long to be served and the food & drink arrived at our table within 10 minutes.
The food was hot, and taste delicious so i have no problem recondmending them.
S. S.
A great restaurant with a wide variety of food on the menu. Would strongly recommend trying them out for breakfast! The scrambled egg on toast with bacon is excellent! Equally their lunch menu is wondeful, look out for the Bill's Burger in particular.
Am yet to go for dinner. One issue you might have is with getting a table, especially on weekends. Book in advance!

We always love a Bill's! We visited here on Bank Holiday Monday and despite it being very busy the service was excellent and the food was cooked and presented perfectly. We'll definitely visit again next time we're here. Particularly recommended is the buttermilk chicken burger.
A. M.
The service here was absolutely amazing Hannah was on her own and even though she was busy for one person she still made sure everyone had everything they needed one of the chefs was even helping her to clean the tables and bring out the food this was so nice.
M. &. J. B.
Squeezed us in (un booked) on a busy Saturday night. Waiters very friendly & knowledgeable, great selection of dishes without a confusing number of choices & service prompt. Will definitely go again 👍🏼
M. T.
This was my 1st visit
We had breakfast very nice, one breakfast was replaced, (as the eggs were cold)
the staff were very nice!!!
Really enjoyed the garden breakfast
Also I loved the quirky toilet! individual toilets with a sink and mirror very nice
I would go again!!!
J. S.
Our welcome to the restaurant was spoiled by the lady leading us to a small table "For two" & when we asked for a slightly roomier table we were told they were kept for 3 or 4 people. Then our Saviour appeared - Lily - who settled us on a better table & was really attentive, helpful and courteous throughout our enjoyable meal. She deserves a rise in her wages !!!

Friendly staff and great food :)

Very tasty green curry today. Staff are taking covid measures seriously and there is a temperature check on arrival, but the food has not suffered.
L. H.
Very nice interior,very good coffe,good service,food ok👍💝
C. T.
Very good meal .Very good service . Very helpful.
J. W.
Had breakfast. The 'garden plate' was lovely. Great, very friendly service. Great tea and coffee, not pretentious, just solid good modern food. Atmosphere was very good.
K. S.
We've been first time here.
Amazing atmosphere, friendly staff and clean toilets 😊
not much about meals could be prepared with love ❤
D. D.
Beautiful place nice staff, but VERY overpriced had a sharing platter, just about enough for one let alone two, small portions, at over £14 I wasn't happy. I did complain and they knocked the price of the drinks off. £5 Hate complaining but felt I had to.
N. A.
Very nice restaurant but some adult portions were the same as the kids portion!! Food was a delight though.
R. A.
Amazing breakfast! Being gluten free have so much choice that never fails to disappoint
T. D.
Recieved a very warm welcome on entrance and from all the staff. Jug of water placed on table FOC. Food was lovely I had eggs royale as was the cappuccino. Location is nice in central birmingham facing church. Was able to sit outside. Overall enjoyed the experience but just a little steep in price £30 for 2 breakfasts and 2 hot drinks
G. 9.
The place and the food was excellent but the waiters kept asking if we have finished our meal every 5 minutes and became annoying. Rather than that the are was very good. I recommend it
T. G.
Great place, good food and service
D. J.
Very nice. First time visiting a Bill's and hopefully not the last. Food was very tasty and plenty of it. Staff were very attentive without being overly so, and polite and friendly.
B. C.
Excellent food. Good drinks selection and friendly staff.
C. D.
Alittle busy on Saturday but that is be expected, the food is good, the menu is good, drinks are great. The only thing that let it down is the staff are slow and when they've brought your food over they kinda disappear. All in all a good place for food.
W. B.
Not as good as it used to be. Food (breakfast) came too quickly so cooked before we ordered. Therefore warmed up . Not everything got. When asked about number of slices of toast I was told two. Only one arrive.
K. A.
We've been a few times and it's great, we were served by Alexandeu very friendly and helpful, we both had pan fried chicken with a mushroom sauce and mashed potato it was delicious and hot, highly recommended.
E. G.
Good service, great food and fair prices, all in the city center. That's a good combo. The menu in not hugely varied, but everything we ordered (a party of 5) was very tasty.
A. M.
Fabulous staff and food! Would highly recommend the breakfast!
R. J.
Staff are always outstanding in this restaurant. They are very friendly, work hard to make you feel welcome and also make an effort to speak clearly, which is an important issue for my partner and I. The food is always top quality and service time is good.
T. M.
Great place, good choice of food.
Very popular all day.
Staff really good, attentive without being pushy.
Well worth trying.
C. R.
Queue was long which was promising, but the food was really very average. Didn't see much of the ambience as we were stuck round the corner by the toilets. Server forgot the drinks. Prices were premium and so tbh, wouldn't go back.
S. W.
Amazing food and lovely staff very friendly 😊
M. C.
Great food, great service, very reasonable price
P. H.
Food was very good.
Waiter was on the ball.
Atmosphere was great
F. F.
Not as good as other Bills I have been to unfortunately. Tables half set, felt as though they were rushed off their feet when in fact it wasn't too busy.
I had the chicken with mushroom sauce & the chicken was overcooked and crispy on the top which was a shame. Broccoli cooked to perfection as was the mash but overall just not what I would class as a good Bills experience sadly.
z.
Bill’s hamburger was great, definitely recommend it. The food is served quick which is fantastic. The restaurant also has got really nice views, other than that the people working here are very friendly.
I. S.
Amazing service with best pancakes I ever had
R. H.
A small army of staff. At least 3 behind the bar creating and pouring libations, 10 on the floor, galavanting around taking orders. It's all very hectic and very impersonal. Our waiter didn't smile once; in fact, he looked on the verge of a panic attack, taking down our orders while his eyes darted around the restaurant looking, I assume, for the next patron in need. Restaurants get busy, I get that, especially in a city centre, but when your food is all but slammed down in front of you without as much as a "bon appetit' it all feels a bit unfriendly, almost military. I'm sure at quieter times the waiters and waitresses are less stressed and give you the time of day. I'm not blaming them, and the food was good, no complaint there, but I left feeling like a table number and not a person.
P. W.
Always good service, and the food is delicious and reasonably priced
J. W.
Great, lovely place, great atmosphere and food is very good and a nice variety!! I had a thai green curry my friend had advanced salad with eggs and the other a big burger and all had great coffee with them too!!
S. T.
Fantastic location with a great outdoors view of the Bullring Mall area and a good ambience inside. Our server, a young Italian lady, was super friendly and efficient. The food was tasty albeit a tad expensive but then given the location it's expected...
Would visit again.
M. H.
Not sure of the "identity" of Bill's, but the food is nice and the service is attentive.
N. S.
I really like the design of this Bills but the best feature is the staff who I have found to be very helpful, friendly and efficient, even when very busy. Personally, I found this Bills to be best in the early evening for a drink and a dinner, but the usual breakfast/brunch/lunch menu is in operation.
S. S.
Nice cosy rustic looking restaurant. Food and desert was nice, could have a little bit hotter heat wise. Staff was very friendly and pleasant.
G. B.
Without doubt the service here is as good as I have ever experienced. A big well done to all staff. Food was also lovely and all in all I have to say Bills made my day!!
H. P.
Great vegetarian food, full of flavour. Good customer service. Decently priced with offers.
P. M.
Visited a few times now, it was fantastic

Fantastic food, staff were great and very helpful, went over the top to help with food allergy, service terrific.
Cocktails OMG out of this world.
20/10 for everything.
J. F.
The choice of food was lovely and when it arrived the portions were a decent size and cooked well. Friendly staff and and pleasant decor.
R. L.
Very good food. The staff were pleasant and helpful and portions were a good size.

Staff were super friendly and accommodating! Food was delicious and the restaurant itself was really nicely decorated. Will definitely be back!
D. C.
Went to Bill's on Wednesday for food before the Stone Sour concert, really nice relaxed atmosphere, good service and great food. Didn't have to wait too long for anything we ordered, would definitely visit again next time I'm in Birmingham.
J. V.
It was a very busy evening, but luckily we had booked or otherwise I think we would have had a long wait! We had a nice table, staff were lovely and we enjoyed our meal. Will definitely return.
S. B.
The pancakes were delicious!
C. W.
The food is nice but not consistent with what is delivered, had the same breakfast three times and each time it's slightly different with no mention why.
The staff are very polite, the place can be noisy as it is always busy
R. P.
Ate here two consecutive nights while on a business trip. Food was excellent both times and pretty reasonable value if you have the set menu. Can’t fault the service.
M. J.
Nice vibes, good attentive service and listened to requests. Touch expensive for some items but mostly worth it
P. H.
First time customer. Had a fantastic time the food was very good and the cocktails were fantastic. Pleasantly surprised. Will be going back next month
B. B.
Much better after the recent refurb. The staff are always super friendly and the food is pretty good also. Would recommend the pancakes or garden breakfast.
J. H.
Bill's at the Birmingham Bullring was very nice apart from the staff cheekily added on a hefty service charge even though there were only two of us dining which did rather annoy me, I'd rather leave a tip instead of being forced to pay when the waitress wasn't particularly friendly!! The food was very nice but rather expensive so be prepared to pay quite a bit and keep a bit of spare money for the service charge!!
S. W.
Service was fine, starters/ Mezze were very good (excellent Felafel!). I foolishly ordered Avocados in January, which weren't ripe. Ah well. In a mall, but atmosphere reasonably convivial despite that.
M. W.
We enjoyed coffee here and I had a dessert. Great service from cheerful smiling waitresses. Good prices and clean loos with sink in too.
A.
Fantastic food, staff so nice, great location. We won the red card promotion during the World Cup and we were thrilled. It made our holiday :-)
k.
Lovely experience in Brum with a particularly lovely waitress.. bless her she was fasting for Ramadan and tired but yet she was so kind and polite... Food was great and I was overly impressed with our lovely waitress - from a White Female 😍
D. R.
Very good food (breakfast) but also very busy. Only complaint would be the pancakes being a bit too doughy and thick, even for American style ones.
M. T.
Good food and friendly staff

relaxed atmosphere, friendly and welcoming staff and quick service. the food was amazing especially the juice. a bit expensive but it was worth it :)

A lovely meal at Bills - we managed to get a table for two around 7.30pm without a booking on a very busy Saturday. We were served by Maria who was very helpful and friendly.
K. B.
My own concern was the food which was too hot but otherwise I enjoyed my first visit looking forward to many more.
