Pushkar Cocktail Bar & Dining is an Indian restaurant on Birmingham’s Broad Street. The polished dining room and dedicated cocktail bar frame dinner as an occasion while keeping the welcome accessible. Evening service runs throughout the week, with several menu formats available for couples, groups and corporate gatherings.
The à la carte menu brings regional Indian spices and modern presentation to meat, seafood and vegetable dishes. Tandoor cooking, slow simmered sauces and carefully balanced marinades allow the kitchen to vary both texture and intensity. Rice, breads and sides give diners control over how each main dish is combined.
A separate vegetarian menu includes paneer with peppers, chaat, vegetable kadai, black lentils and spinach kofta. Banquet menus create a guided sequence for groups and remove some of the complexity of choosing across the full selection. Guests should discuss allergies directly because dairy, nuts, gluten and other allergens appear across the kitchen.
Cocktails are integral to Pushkar rather than an afterthought, with wine, beer, spirits and alcohol free choices providing further pairings. Indian desserts bring syrup, saffron, dairy and warm spice into the final course. Pushkar combines the ceremony of fine dining with a broad, flavour driven menu and a lively central Birmingham bar.
Address: 245 Broad Street, Birmingham B1 2HQ, United Kingdom
