Brought to you by Jools Holland, The Jam House is hands down one of the best restaurants with live music in Birmingham. Enjoy your meal on the top floor restaurant area, then head down to enjoy your bands and let your dancing feet get the better of you.
Getting a taste of Australian life at Walkabout doesn't just mean lounging about drinking beer. Feast on their menu of Aussie comfort food before night descends, where the DJs come out and the whole venue is transformed into a club. Food and dancing in Birmingham has never been easier.
For something more casual, make your way to Dead Wax Digbeth. Boasting over 4,000 records for you to take a look at, the venue is the perfect joint to hit for sourdough pizzas, craft beer and some moving and grooving on the dancefloor.
For restaurants with entertainment in Birmingham, 180 Club at The Rectory is a great shout. Tuck into Tokyo crispy prawns, dirty chicken wings, glamour fries and cheeseburgers, while shaking it to epic tunes and playing a round of darts.
Bavarian beer? German sausage? A bustling atmosphere? Birmingham Bierkeller is coming up trumps for dining and dancing. Enjoy hitting the dancefloor with a stein in hand, while munching on a warm pretzel or scrumptious bratwurst afterward.
Enjoy a celebratory bottle of Moët & Chandon Champagne on arrival for £65!
While these folks might be known for their theatrical concoctions, The Alchemist's food offering is nothing short of delicious. Chow down on tapas such as Korean fried chicken burger, bang bang salads and much more followed by some much-needed dancing when the music drops.
Learn the firey moves of the tango before tucking into some rich, smoky fare at Fiesta del Asado across its Edgbaston and Shirley locations. At the former, you'll find a dining room laced with charming, dark furnishings and a duck egg bar where signature cocktails like the gin-based Sexy Senorita are whipped up. And on the menu? Quality cuts of steak, seabass parrilla, flat iron chicken and grilled octopus to name a few.
If you want food and party frolics then head to this drinking den on a Friday night in the city. Spotlight invites you to Digbeth Dining Club, where you'll be able to tuck into local street food while jamming out to the best house DJs who will be keeping the party vibes going.
Whilst The Loft Lounge promise great dining and wholesome British grub in their stylish restaurant - doused in black chandeliers and sturdy mahogany tables - they want you to stick around for the evening. That's why they take to the bar for the party after dinner's gone down a treat with top-notch DJs.
Get stuck into the finest Southern American grub at this restaurant bar as you hit the dancefloor with a margarita in hand. It starts with you chowing down on burritos and nachos at Bodega before heading downstairs to Sugarloaf - their late-night bar whipping up tasty tipples.
