Purnells - Birmingham

We're fortunate to have such excellent restaurants in Birmingham. We chose the tasting menu as it's so special. Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling great and almost cancelled the booking. I'm glad we went as it being my birthday it made the day very special. I wasn't keen on a couple of courses but with such variety you're sure to like most. I love the theatre too with the dry ice vapour and the attention to detail of all courses. Who would think that Marmite and Honey butter could taste so good!

We went for the tasting menu, service was excellent, as expected ,and the food did not disappoint. Expect to spend around 3hrs. Lovely atmosphere and wine also very good. This is a top end restaurant, so expectations are always high. On par with Adams. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £100+ Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Celebrated our wedding anniversary at Purnell's and had another great visit. The staff always give excellent service and this was no exception. The food was again delicious, and the atmosphere was special without being pretentious. The veal sweetbread was a standout dish for me, and I adored the honey and marmite whipped butter that came with the bread. Mint Choccy Chip continues to have a very special place in our hearts too. Thank you, Team Purnell's! Keep up the excellent work!

Wow, where to begin? A very intimate restaurant, which makes you feel like it’s only you in the room. Attentive but down to earth staff, from front of house to kitchen. We had the taster menu, which was insane! Such delicious flavours, magical presentation and absolute magicians as chefs. Obviously not an experience for everyday but completely worth every penny for an occasion. It’s what we go to work for isn’t it. Crystal clear to see how the team have retained their Michelin star year in year out. Highly recommend and will dine there again, a complete taste sensation and a gorgeous night out. Thank you Team for looking after us and for being so incredible
