The Lost & Found Birmingham is a restaurant and cocktail bar at 8 Bennetts Hill in the city centre. Its ornate Victorian building creates a theatrical setting of botanical details, high ceilings and period character. The venue moves comfortably between brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and late drinks.
Food is made from scratch around a seasonal menu of small plates, larger dishes, steaks and pizza. Recent choices have included smoked salmon, pâté, sticky chicken and cauliflower wings, followed by burgers, mushroom risotto and a range of pizzas. Sandwiches and lighter bites offer a less formal alternative during the day.
Weekend brunch and afternoon tea give the dining room uses beyond the main lunch and evening menus. Vegetarian and plant based choices are included, but the shared kitchen means guests with allergies need to review the current information and speak with staff before ordering. Group menus and reservable areas make the venue practical for celebrations.
Cocktails are a defining part of the experience, with botanical themes and elaborate presentation alongside wine, beer and alcohol free choices. Diners can make drinks the focus or use them to accompany a complete meal. The Lost & Found Birmingham combines broad all day dining with one of Bennetts Hill’s more decorative and distinctive interiors.
