American-style burgers and fries, Italian cooking, and Middle Eastern options add range, while gardens and community-minded pubs give a meal here an easygoing sense of place. Eastside offers strong value for quality, especially for casual meals and drinks.

This is classic 1950s-style American diner territory inside Selfridges, with burgers, hot dogs, generous sides and indulgent shakes. Most diners find the food fresh and satisfying and praise the friendly team, but a meaningful minority report dry or undersized dishes, forgotten orders and abrupt service. Try: Hot dog.
This is a bright, casual city-centre noodle bar built for quick boxes, customizable toppings, and easy lunches. The food can be fresh and flavorful, especially the chicken dishes, but complaints about small portions, overcooked or undercooked food, missing items, and inconsistent delivery quality are substantial. Try: Teriyaki chicken.
This tucked-away railway-arch restaurant has a polished industrial feel, friendly staff when things are running smoothly, and burgers that can be genuinely excellent. Fries are a recurring highlight, but reports of long waits, cold delivery food, and occasional undercooked or dry items temper the hype. Try: ODB fries.
This is a lively Digbeth sports bar built around screens, live events, music and a substantial beer garden. The food is better than incidental bar fare, with generous portions and several well-liked dishes, though service can become inconsistent or overly hard-edged when the venue is busy. Try: Chilli Bomb burger.
