The 30 Best French restaurant in Solihull

“Really lovely lunch one day and brunch on another over the weekend. Food is well cooked, presented and tasty. Varied and interesting food and drinks menus. Average ‘gastropub’ prices. Staff really friendly. Great outdoor space and a large pergola with fire and ping pong table (noticed they also have tv presumably for sports and hire the pergola out for parties). Weird thing to say on a review but appreciated nice and clean toilets with free sanitary products in the ladies in case you’re caught short. Small thoughtful gestures like this are always a winner imo.”

“My mother ordered an impulse birthday cake from Coffee Cloud for my 21st and it was amazing ! It tasted so good and looked spectacular. Thank you for helping to make my day special :)”

“Great steak, ribeye was cooked to perfection and the tomahawk was really good value for money. One of the best old fashions i've had in a while. We were so well looked after by all the team and especially our server, she was great!”

“Here’s a polished review you can use: --- Had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The food is truly authentic, and the flavors took me right back home. The Vada Pav was the highlight for me—perfectly spiced, fresh, and absolutely delicious. It’s easily my favorite item here! A special mention to the restaurant manager, Mr. Omkar, who was very warm and welcoming. He personally served us and made sure we had everything we needed. Excellent service and great food—highly recommended!”

“We came here to have a Valentines lunch. We were greeted warmly by staff. We hadn't booked ahead of time, but Bettie our server accommodated Us very quickly. I had the beers Battered Black Pudding, with salad and Sweet Chilli Sauce. Followed by the Black and Blue Burger, with homemade Slaw and chunky chips. My partner had Breaded Mushrooms with Garlic Mayo, followed by Lambs Liver and Bacon, with Peas and Pea shoots. The food was cooked beautifully and all the staff were friendly and chatty. We'll be coming back to try something else from the menu.”

“A great place to visit for drinks and food. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. On this particular occasion we went for Sunday lunch, the portion sizes are very generous and well presented. The only disappointing thing was the roast potatoes. Normally they have been excellent, but on this occasion, we found them to be a little bit dry. Fortunately this didn't determine from the rest of the meal which was very good.”

“We have had a most enjoyable visit to The Orange Tree under its new Fullers ownership. Stacey was brilliant and despite a gluten, dairy and nut intolerance family she was exceptional throughout our delicious meal. We will certainly be back. Many thanks Roger”

“Had our wedding reception in the room/garden at back. Everything went so smoothly massive credit to Lian, Chloe & Amy for making everything easy. Buffet food was amazing and the overnight stay with breakfast in the morning was perfect!”

“We had a lovely time this afternoon. Seated promptly and attended immediately, even though it was very busy. We were looked after by the very capable and pleasant, Bella. She couldn't do enough for us, and made our dining experience a very pleasant one. The food was excellent, although we needed a doggy box, for my wife's plentiful, tri roast dinner. We spent post dinner in the beer garden, which is abundant and well set out. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended.”

“I still remember coming to this little place when it first opened many moons ago. The people were as lovely as I remember them to be and the food was spot on. The schnitzel was perfectly done and the chips were golden and crispy. The bratwurst roll was also amazing and a perfect afternoon snack. If you’re ever in the area, highly recommend checking out this hidden gem and give our local businesses a bit of extra support.”

“Had a lovely long awaited catch up with friends today we all agree that Desco has a lovely friendly and comfortable atmosphere. I had the tapas board and it was lovely the patatas bravos especially good. Staff were very friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble which is a 10/10.”

“Very impressive restaurant. We love our food from the east but this has recently taken it to another level. I went for a friends birthday party and all I can say is if you want to impress someone with a look of a place this is where you need to be. The food was incredible I think this is probably as authentic as you will get, everything is fresh and the vast range of starters and main courses were amazing. The food was fresh delicious and the waiters were incredible. They explained what the dishes were they were very thorough with relation to allergies as a friend was allergic to a few items however the Restaraunt was fantastic. Starters came out on time hot delicious and enough to feed a group of hungry ladies! The mains were incredible I have to admit the best I’ve tasted. Parking was ok as you can park in the centre car park which is joined with tesco this was ideal as straight after the meal I got to buy a few baby essentials which was very convenient. Overall I can’t believe the amazing work of however designed this place and thought the colours and atmosphere is amazing. Highly recommend.”

“Fantastic place to have a bite to eat. Incredibly friendly, really tidy and clean place, good value and the food tastes lovely! I would go there again!”

“Dave and the team helped me organise my 40th party at Oktogon on a Saturday evening, it worked really well. It’s a lovely venue; trendy and relaxed, the service was excellent - the team are so friendly. Pizza’s were very tasty. Would definitely recommend!”

“Fantastic location, especially if staying overnight in a Motorhome. Service great 2 out of the 3 nights we stayed. We will be back, great food and great value and good staff.”

“This is a favourite local curry house. The staff are always extremely welcoming and friendly. The food is always of a good quality and it's great value for money.”

“We had sea bass filets and the signature burger, both were amazing. Perfectly flavoured and good portion size. Squash and cauliflower soup of the day was just the thing we needed on a cold Sunday afternoon. Would definitely come back.”

“Yet again had a very nice lunch. I tried the grilled sea bass and it was wonderful - well worth the money. The atmosphere at lunchtime is always very relaxing and the staff very welcoming.”

“Great Fish & Chip shop, with the best kebabs in the area, sparkling clean shop as all Greek/Cypriot places usually are, the service is friendly but sometimes can be slow going even during the week when quiet! Our family hopes Mr Nico will start opening back up on Monday evenings too.”

“Visited twice last week as we were at an NEC show. Friendly staff. Lovely food. Good prices.”

“We visited the newly revamped Drum And Monkey as always it didn't disappoint , management has changed , service and food just as good as before. We enjoyed a tasty breakfast in a relaxed atmosphere , we can highly recommend you give it a try if you have not been before.”

“Had a very nice Guinness and a sausage brioche bun here at the Beech House at a reasonable price. Parking is free when you validate your car at the screen on one of the counters, there are limited spaces. Great service and great food.”

“Very fast service and decent portion size.”

“Recently discovered this place, been a half dozen times and so impressed with it. The service is exceptional and the vibe is best in Solihull. Well priced, good food, great drinks selection with offers for each day of the week. Special mention to Andy, Chloe and Rose for the attention to detail and amazing customer service. You guys are truly amazing. A must visit establishment in Solihull.”
