The Briar Rose - Carta

First time of eating in Wetherspoons for a while. The prices have obviously risen but the portion sizes appear to have decreased. Most of the food was OK but the peas seemingly only had a very brief encounter with some heat. At least the beer was good.

Went at lunchtime and it was very busy. The food was brought to the table quickly and was very nice. The prices were reasonable. The only issue was that the tables are very close to each other, which resulted in a lot of people bumping into each other when sitting down and getting up.

We only used the pub/restaurant. We found a table easily, ordered online and received our drinks quickly. The food followed shortly afterwards. Everything we ordered was of good quality, served hot and satisfying. Overall a very good experience. I suspect it may be very busy at the weekend. Ver carta

Rooms dated, beds uncomfortable and room not clean. Shower was good. High price for this budget hotel. Reception often not manned. Guess expectations need to be lowered when staying at a Weatherspoons. Some staff friendly, others seemed massively overworked. Good location in the centre of the city but would not stay again.

Very noisy outside during the night on the road ourside our room. The room was a good size though the bathroom needed a bit of attention toilet seat hanging off and the cistern cupboard wouldnt shut. The bath had a dirty water mark where the shower/taps have been dripping. Staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was just the trick

Me and my friend had a top experience drinking at this restaurant, finding it lovely to have one in a hotel pub! The stairs are in a glorious area, lift is a neat addition and the pub has a glorious design. Especially to me the counter and chandeliers stood out, also the staff were very friendly! I had Absolut Vodka and sat comfortably, situated at a clean table. Ver carta

Visited today had a warm welcome reception we found a table and chairs to sit but decided to move to another table one of our group mistakenly left their handbag on the table, a polite friendly young gentleman Lewis found the bag and placed behind the counter for safe keeping. Once we realised what we had done we approached the fabulous staff.Staff member Lewis recalled the bag asked politely for details before returning the bag. Lewis is a superb member of staff polite friendly and extremely helpful especially at the Christmas time of year A*

Came here for breakfast, paid for a small breakfast and Side of toast. 5 members of staff and not particularly busy at all. Waited 30 minutes only to be presented with ice cold eggs and no toast. Even after I asked for toast, it wasn’t given it. After my breakfast I told the staff about the absent toast and they all just looked at each other confused and started bickering about how the toast was ready and no one bought it out. They said they will give it to me now..told them it was too late as I had eaten. They gave me a with no apology. I had to ask for an apology. Poor service.

I just wanted to leave a review as I came to the Briar Rose for drinks and food on Saturday 24th June and I had never been in Brum before and my friends and I wanted to go somewhere for drinks in the evening. So we started at the spoons as it’s familiar the food was lovely as expected for spoons but the staff were superb! Even when I was nervous about eating my beyond burger that (of course) looked suspiciously like meat but I wanted to sing the praises of Connor who worked the bar with a grin and a falsetto song! I asked if he could point us in the direction of somewhere with live music so we could have a dance and I had the most wholesome conversation about live music and the place he rec... Ver carta
