The Distillery Birmingham is a canal side bar and restaurant at 4 Sheepcote Street near Brindleyplace. Its waterside setting, flexible rooms and outdoor areas suit casual lunches, group dinners and larger celebrations. The atmosphere becomes livelier in the evening without losing its focus on a complete food menu.
Wood fired pizza is a defining part of the kitchen, with classic toppings joined by more local combinations such as balti chicken. Seasonal main dishes and small plates add alternatives for diners who do not want pizza. Hummus, fried chicken, kofta and salads illustrate the range available for sharing.
Sunday menus and bottomless brunch give weekends a different rhythm, while buffet and pizza packages simplify organised groups. Plant based and vegetarian dishes are included across the selection. Guests with allergies should ask the team to guide them through the latest allergen menu and any possible recipe adjustments.
Signature cocktails lead a full bar that also includes beer, wine, spirits and alcohol free choices. The canal outlook makes drinks and food feel connected to the location rather than contained in a conventional city restaurant. The Distillery Birmingham combines flexible hospitality, fresh pizza and a strong bar in one of the city’s most distinctive waterside settings.
Address: 4 Sheepcote Street, Birmingham B16 8AE, United Kingdom
