Birmingham might not be high on your list of dream city break locations… However, our socks were knocked well and truly off by how awesome we found it. One of the UK’s best brunches, slow cooked juicy meats by Andy Low n Slow, gorgeous natural wine at Wine Freedom, decadent sushi platters and the Indian Brewery were among our lineup of the best in Brum. We seriously recommend that you pay Birmingham some attention.
