Adam's
#food
- Adam's started as a run-down pop-up in a defunct sandwich store in 2013.
- It accelerated production and exceeded its original facility due to subsequent great demand and a cult-like following (receiving a Michelin star).
- Adam's is now housed in a considerably larger location on Waterloo Street, where contemporary fine dining is the order of the day.
- It isn't inexpensive, but it is of excellent quality and provides a considerable gourmet adventure.
- After all, crab cashew satay isn't something you get to eat every day.
The Ivy
#food
- Yes, we're talking about Ivy, but instead of London splendour, the company has set up shop in Birmingham to bring a taste of the capital to the Midlands.
- The restaurant and the cuisine are blasts of colour and taste, located in Temple Row but devoid of the celebrity types who frequent its equivalents in the capital.
- Whether you're ordering à la carte, afternoon tea, or a crème brûlée dip, expect it to be served with a flourish.
Tattu
#food
- Tattu, which bills itself as "the yin yang experience," is the polar opposite of balance in many aspects — it is enormous and OTT in every manner.
- It's tough to ignore the honed skill set required to get there when looking at its beautifully exact dishes.
- This is a terrific place to commemorate a special occasion with classics with a twist, delicious wagyu beef, and impressively prepared desserts.
COLONIAL BROOKWOOD VILLAGE
#fashion
- This enclosed mall, anchored by Macy's and Belk, first opened in the 1970s and had a significant remodelling in 2001.
- Colonial Brookwood Village is now much more than a shopping complex; it's a flourishing mixed-use neighbourhood with food, nightlife, and corporate space.
- Charlotte Russe, Banana Republic, Brookstone, and Finish Line are just a few speciality stores you'll find here.
20TH STREET
#fashion
- Local consumers have always flocked to downtown Birmingham, notably around 20th Street.

PEPPER PLACE
#fashion
- The former Dr Pepper Syrup Plant and Dr Pepper Bottling Company buildings were renovated to establish the Pepper Place complex, which now houses several popular stores and the Terrific New Theatre.
- Pepper Place, one of Birmingham's most unusual retail and entertainment hubs, is an excellent example of creative building reuse.
Twycross Zoo
#fun
- This new region brings The Gruffalo's story to life, allowing you to stroll through the deep dark wood and meet all of the novel's beloved characters, including Mouse, Fox, Owl, Snake, and, of course, The Gruffalo himself.
- You'll follow the story of the tiny mouse and his vast imagination as he embarks on his journey, interacting with each character along the way, as it's inspired by Julia Donaldson's classic children's book The Gruffalo.
- Before meeting The Gruffalo, walk the trail inside Fox's Underground House, peek through Owl's Treetop House, and slip into Snake's Logpile House!
- You will be transported on a delightful family journey with interactive animatronics and short snippets from The Gruffalo film, which will pique the attention of the youngest generations in The Gruffalo's world.
Cannon Hill Park
