Weird And Wonderful Bars In Birmingham

Jools Holland certainly made his mark on the city when he opened The Jam House. One of the best bars in Birmingham, this fun spot has everything from a balcony for optimum views of the stage to fine wines and top-notch grub. 

Based on the adventures of Victorian explorer Hettie G. Watson, The Lost and Found is a cocktail bar in Birmingham full of weird and wonderful artefacts so you can do some investigating of your own. Botanical themed, the ceiling is a canopy of butterflies and birdcages depicting her discoveries. 

A unique watering hole in the city centre, the Bierkeller offers a bunch of cool events to get stuck into. Mosey down for steins of German pilsner and pretzels, followed by a little dancing as you watch the Oompah band doing their thing.

From pink bottomless brunches to Mamma Mia and Harry Styles-themed events, Tonight Josephine is pulling out all the stops. Flaunting glittering backdrops and neon signs, this place makes for the ultimate hen party destination.

Right below The Rectory is one of our favourite hidden gems in the city centre. With a punk aesthetic and a potent cocktail selection to match, 180 Club is one of our top picks for the most wonderful bars in Birmingham.

The Alchemist at the Grand Hotel fronts gorgeous decor, quirky artwork and luxe gold accents throughout the venue. But it's their show-stopping creative concoctions that really steal the show. We're talking theatrical tipples and playfully named drinks such as the Tongue-Tied Mai Tai, alongside cosmic oyster shots.

For game bars in Birmingham, we recommend checking out NQ64. This unique joint in the Custard Factory has a whole host of fun retro consoles, alongside the quirkiest cocktails with fun names - think The Kirby and the Power Star Martini.

With medieval decor, beautiful stone masonry and banquet-style seating, Bacchus Bar is one of the most bizarre places to drink. Enjoy sipping on delicious craft lagers and ales, alongside a range of scrumptious scran - the smoked mac 'n' cheese is delish.

One of the quirkiest bars in town, a visit to Flight Club always makes for a cracking good time. Book yourself an oche, nab a glass of prosecco, chow down on pizza, and prepare to engage in some competitive and totally interactive darts. Shoot your shot.

Located in Jewellery Quarter, Hockley Social Club provides many reasons to visit. From their scrumptious street food to their hilarious comedy events and 2-4-1 cocktails, this joint is ideal for weekends out with friends.

For weird and wonderful bars in Birmingham city centre, check out Vagabond Wines. Just minutes from New Street Station, Vagabond Wines features machines that give you the chance to try a taster or glass of any of the 100s of wines.

For fun bars in Birmingham, we highly recommend making a trip to The Cocktail Club. The venue promises a whole range of kooky concoctions. Make the most of their happy hour (2 for 1 on cocktails 'til 8pm every day) as well as banging bottomless brunches.

Moseley's One Trick Pony Club is one of the quirkiest bars in Birmingham, thanks to its mural-covered garden. Step into their alfresco area for an afternoon spent sipping away on cocktails and chowing down on the most scrumptious comfort eats. 

Searching for pink places to drink? Situated in the heart of The Arcadian, 202 Kitchen is the ideal joint for a girls' night out. Enjoy everything from macaroni bites and burgers to pretty drinks and shots served in a mini sports car.

Not only is Sky By The Water one of the prettiest entries on our list, but is also has a few quirky touches. Settle into their gorgeous dining domes on their rooftop before sneaking away to this haunt's secret garden.
