Cheerfully ornate, gothic style cellar bar beneath The Burlington Hotel. Discretely hidden just off the bustling New Street. Bacchus is a relaxing oasis away from the buzz of the City Centre. A range of real ales is available. Over 21s only.

Bacchus

One of the best, but also one of the most pretentious clubs in Birmingham. It's not cheap but is still the place to be seen. The dress code here is very hard to define, they want "cool".

Bambu

Quiet and comfortable pub, in the Gun quarter. Home-cooked food, too.

Bull

Situated out of the rear of the Mailbox complex, has great traditional blue tiled exterior.

Craven Arms

Best for R'n'B on Broad Street. Get there early on Sundays. Cheap drinks promotion.

Rococo Lounge
