We are once again very proud to have retained our Michelin star for 2020.

After gaining the star in September 2013, we are delighted to have maintained it ever since and we’d like to thank every guest and member of staff that’s been involved on the journey so far.

Following a rigorous peer-review process, whereby independents were nominated in each category by the general public (indeed, we had over 800 nominations – which shows just how much love and support there is for Brum’s indie scene), our panel of 14 Shortlist Judges, hand-picked to represent a variety of business backgrounds, voted for their top 5 choices in each category to create our Shortlist. From this list, our Finalist Judges made the tough final decision on who would win each category in the IB Awards.

We are super proud to have picked up the Independent Birmingham award for best fine dining restaurant.

For the fifth consecutive year, we have been awarded a Travellers’ Choice Award from TripAdvisor.

Based on guest reviews, we have been rated as the second best restaurant in the UK, the 6th in Europe and 11th in the world.

An amazing achievement.

We have again received an AA Notable Wine List Award for 2019.
