German restaurant in Birmingham

“Really happy with our evening meal. Great atmosphere and lovely staff”

“The best Japanese restaurant in Birmingham. Small number of tables so very personal service. Good selection of food on the menu from sushi to hot dishes. Remember that they do not take credit cards, cash only.”

“The best GDK I’ve eaten in! Our doner kebabs were delicious. The salad was fresh and full of flavour. Sameer provided excellent customer service — we’d definitely come again!”

“First visit plenty of choices, I had the mixed kebab meal with curry fries and a drink. Big portion sizes nice to get fresh salad for a change, whenever I have had kebabs in the past the salad inside is always a let down not here though. Staff at the counter were friendly and offered good advice on what to choose.”

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the waitress for the excellent service. She was very attentive, polite, and friendly, always with a warm smile and a willingness to help. Our order was taken promptly, her recommendations were great, and everything was served on time. Thanks to Nafissa professionalism, our overall experience was truly enjoyable. We will definitely come back again.”

“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.”

“The service was brilliant, the food was very hot and delicious. Veg range was great. The place was very busy on Friday night but the service was quick and attentive. Josh was wonderful.”

“I had a wonderful stay at this hotel and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome with their warm hospitality and professional service. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-equipped, providing a comfortable environment to relax after a long day. The location was excellent, close to major attractions yet peaceful enough for rest. Breakfast offered a good variety of tasty options, and the dining area was always neat. What impressed me most was the attention to detail and genuine care. Overall, a truly memorable and pleasant experience.”

“Really nice place, different style of food. Plenty of room to eat inside with friends and family. Staff are really nice and always helpful, special thanks to Raluca who always looks after us whenever we swing by! You are the best Raluca!!!!”

“Loved the food and the service was great, the front staff (Dildar) handled customers very nicely. We ordered the quesadilla meal and the new grilled cheese sandwich and was definitely worth the price and the quality of the meal was great.”

“We went here for dinner last Saturday before a gig at the o2 Institute. Korma is my favourite curry as I like the creamy flavour, this was up there as one of the best Korma's I've ever had, so creamy and the naan was great as well. Lovely style of decor too and friendly staff. An enjoyable dinner.”

“I am really impressed with the quality and taste of food. It's up to standard. Kebab bread is fantastic and very similar to a traditional Turkish. Food is bit expensive. But it's worth it. There is far too much waste which needs to be addressed. Every food item is at least two layers of packaging deep. Overall I would recommend that it's worth trying at least once.”

“Absolutely incredible food and service!! A little pricey to a normal mixed kebab but you pay for the quality of food and the service and they supply this fantastically here. It was certainly worth it. This is 100% going to be a regular go to for us! Thank you guys!”

“The experience was amazing. The half thigh chicken for my friend was a little extra grilled, i requested if it can be replaced and the manager gave us a replacement within 10 mins. The staff was so cooperative, especially the bald tattooed white guy lol I'd recommend this place.”

“We went there for our anniversary. The atmosphere was nice and the food was delicious! Steak was juicy and tender. Highly recommend!”

“Visited GDK Merry Hill recently and was really impressed with both the quality of food and the friendly service. The staff were attentive, the restaurant was spotless, and the food tasted fresh and full of flavour. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys quality doner kebabs and quick service.”

“I am being here every week with my friends. This have a really good environment compared to any other bars or arcades i have been to. The service they provide is soo good. A special mention to zach, jules, Rhys and owen who were really friendly and they are a big reason for us to comeback every week to have a pint and chill with the pool table. The prices are also better as they have student discounts which is so appreciated.”

“This place is so so lovely. We walked in and were greeted by the most friendly face. We went for breakfast at about 10am on Monday (today) and had service with a smile with everyone involved. The food was quick to come out and piping hot. We had two breakfasts - a small and a large - perfect sizing for a great price. Not a stingy amount of food for an extortionate amount of money, just good wholesome food with a decent price tag. The atmosphere was calming and cosy, the sausages were lovely, bacon and eggs cooked to perfection. Option of gluten free toast which was great and the option to choose between tinned tomatoes and a grilled tomato was a nice touch as I hate one and love the other. Will definitely be coming again for breakfast when we stay at the bloc hotel, which is just across the road.”

“Wonderful service. Incredible staff. And food to match! Falafel and halloumi wrap was 10/10 and the apple carrot and ginger is spot on! Thank you and see you again soon!”

“Great selection of beers, both domestic and imported. We parked across the road in the pub opposite. They accept card payments and have cardboard boxes for bigger orders.”

“Excellent staff, they were very busy but still gave a personal service. Delicious breakfast, we highly recommend a visit. There is a choice of tables and chairs or sofa areas. There is a small children's play area - mini kitchen and some books.”

“Really pleased that Be The Change has expanded into its own restaurant. Food was as good as the cafe in the square (picture is vegan crispy chilli beef) and the restaurant itself is well laid out. Service as usual was great. Would definitely go again.”

“Great pub with great food and excellent service. Lovely ambience and atmosphere here. The food was outstanding. Lovely flavours and texture. The dessert was a standout. Absolutely lovely cheesecake. All homemade fresh food and you can taste the difference. Will be back soon.”

“Myself and my wife have just returned from a stay at the Courtyard, it was fantastic in every way, the room was overlooking the river, very comfortable bed and it was lovely and clean, the food was really nice and the breakfast was superb, all the staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us. Well done Courtyard it was a great experience.”

“First visit to the venue. Saw Maruja. A great gig, lovely venue with friendly staff, reasonably priced drinks & a fantastic atmosphere. Arrived early, parked in a nearby side street & enjoyed a fab meal at Bayt Al-Yemeni (highly recommended) beforehand. All in all a great night. Look forward to returning soon.”

“Amazing food! Recommend the bean burger highly for vegetarians. Atmosphere is very nice and chilled and the service is very friendly and speedy! Deffo recommend”

“Staff very warm and welcoming. Live music and Christmas decorations made for a great atmosphere. Food was tasty, large portions and definitely value for money. I appreciated the free round of drinks for the table for my birthday too!”

“Popped in for a pint on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Friendly service, great space and a decent selection of beers. Would come again!”

“Very nice and cute museum about Tolkien's childhood and inspirations. I was very surprised to find out how rural Birmingham used to be!”
