Whether you're out with friends, family or work colleagues, Piccolino is a top choice for large groups. Head inside this Brindley Place venue, where you'll be met with a trendy open kitchen that's whipping up hearty Italian plates, alongside a cocktail bar and private dining space.
For something a little different, head over to the Jewellery Quarter and visit The Jam House. Live music, jazz and acoustic nights are on offer all week, so book in advance to secure one of their popular balcony tables for you and your group. Then settle in for a night of fantastic music, tempting cocktails and even the option of fine food that will make for a memorable night with your friends.
With space for up to 150 people with their private hire options, 180 Club at The Rectory can cater for groups of any size at their cool basement venue. The main attraction here is social darts on their high-tech electronic boards, which add up your scores for you. There are six lanes accommodating up to 12 players at once, with plenty of cocktails, ales, wine and more to keep you refreshed throughout the game. Feeling hungry afterwards? Then check out their menu of buffalo chicken wings, jalapeno hot dogs, jackfruit burgers and more.
One of the best bars in Birmingham for big groups, this fun outdoor space in the heart of Digbeth is a top spot for dinner, drinks and dancing this spring and summer. Grab the gang and head to Luna Springs for live entertainment, bottomless brunches and creative cocktails.
Hockley Social Club are all about entertaining on a big warehouse scale, with their cool street food concept perfect for groups that can't make a decision thanks their varied trader options, 2-4-1 cocktail deals and DJ vibes.
Reminiscent of Steampunk and old train carriages, The Head of Steam is a dynamic addition to Birmingham's drinking scene. Housing a treasure trove of local craft beer and real ale, don't forget to check out their mezzanine balcony.

When it comes to bars for large groups, Riva Blu are a great shout. The venue has two unique private dining rooms which can accommodate up to 20 guests for a meal, as well as cracking Italian food to boot. We mean lobster linguine, burrata and calamari, alongside a slew of cocktails to sip on.
With venues both in the city centre and in Harborne, Slug and Lettuce is a brilliant choice of drinking destination for big groups of friends. Their spacious venues are filled with Instagrammable pink decor, and plenty of room to dance.
Their cocktails are available on a two-for-one offer at all times, and they even offer an affordable bottomless brunch that's ideal for large celebrations, or just because.
This retro haven in Digbeth has more than enough room for large groups in Birmingham. Bringing back the times of Northern Soul to the 21st century, expect throwback tunes all nights and a large enough space for your entire squad to fit on the dance floor. Not only that, but you can hire the whole place out for a capacity of 250 and only for a small fee!
Fun things to do for the whole gang? A trip to Chinawhite should certainly be on the cards. A buzzing club found in Birmingham's city centre, this is the place to go for superior service, unique interiors and one helluva night out.
