We Spent 8 Hours in Birmingham. London Should Be Worried.

We didn’t do Bullring. We didn’t do Selfridges. We did 8 hours across the real Birmingham map, West Brom, Sutton Coldfield and Coventry Road and ate at the places Brummies actually queue for. Three stops. No tourist circuit. 🔴 The Red Lion, West Bromwich Award-winning desi pub. Mixed grill the size of a car park. Fish pakora. The kind of room that smells like charcoal and victory. This is why people drive out of the city centre on purpose. 🐟 Skippers, Sutton Coldfield Not a cute “chippy with a twist” headline. Proper fish. Scottish cod. Chips from a farm nine miles away. A Sutton shop that got shortlisted nationally and still feels like a neighbourhood counter. 🔥 Tea’s Smokehouse, Coventry Road, Sheldon Halal American BBQ on a Birmingham A-road. Oak-smoked brisket for 12 hours. Beef rib. Smashburger. A passion project that shouldn’t work on this stretch of road and does. This is not “8 hours in Birmingham the brochure.” This is 8 hours in Birmingham the appetite. 📍 STOPS The Red Lion: 190 All Saints Way, West Bromwich, B71 1RH Skippers Fish & Chips: 30 Beeches Walk, Sutton Coldfield, B73 6HN Tea’s Smokehouse: 2069 Coventry Road, Sheldon, Birmingham, B26 3DY Proud Sponsors • Slap Sauce – https://slapsauce.co.uk/products/slap... • The Farmhouse – https://www.thefarmhouserestaurant.co.uk • Burger Boi – https://burgerboi.co.uk • R Kings Competitions – https://rkingscompetitions.com • CP Packaging – https://cppackaging.com • WingFest – https://www.wingfest.co.uk • Crown & Bezel – https://www.crownandbezel.co.uk • Pro Fry – https://profryltd.uk Business Enquiries 📧 foodreviewclub@zodiacglobal.com Drop your Birmingham order in the comments.
