Best Pub food near Birmingham, Alabama, United States
Reviews on Pub food in Birmingham, Alabama, United States. It has been said that Birmingham is the last major Southern city in America, where a friendly "How y'all doin'," a hearty meal of country-fried steak with butter beans and a true taste of Southern hospitality await visitors. Whether you're into the history of the Civil Rights movement, a fan of jazz music or just looking for culture and a few fun activities for the family, Sweet Birmingham is the place for you. Spend the morning at the Birmingham Museum of Art, then have lunch at a traditional Southern tea room. Outdoor enthusiasts can tee off at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail or pack a lunch and spend the day hiking and enjoying the vistas at Ruffner Mountain. A world-class zoo, the innovative McWane Center and VisionLand, Alabama's first amusement park, are sure to keep families entertained and on the go. In the evening, listen to a blues show at an outdoor cafe and then spend the night at a small cozy inn or splurge for an elegant hotel.

I had a chicken fingers tossed in the spicy garlic sauce. This was my second time coming to the J. Clyde. I thought the fries were really good. We sat out back, which was closed off since it was cold, but normally the windows are open when itâs warmer. Our waiter Adam was amazing!!! We found out he actually went to school for opera singing!! Long story on how we found out. Haha. I would definitely go back here! Itâs right on a cobble stone street which is pretty cute. FYI no to go cups for drinks. I wanted to take my Mountain Dew to go but no cups. Anyway... I highly suggest going here. I think I will try something different to eat next time I go. I had a taste of their black bean burger and it was pretty good as well.

Reuben and roast beef sandwiches we're leaned and stacked high. Delicious bread. Chips seemed a little stale. Young lady who took our order today was very helpful. It was our first visit to the Garage, so the menu was unfamiliar. She described the menu clearly and offered options. She had great customer service skills. I don't remember her name, but do remember that she says, "Kool" to get across that the order is going to be real good :)

The food is great and I love the atmosphere! I highly recommend the mimosas since they give you a bottle of champagne and a bottle of orange juice. I had the Salmon Benedict and it was delicious. My boyfriend had the french toast and loved it!

We were seated immediately and service was prompt and friendly.Both pizzas we ordered were unusual, but delicious. Plenty of beer choices to suit every beer drinker in your party.Thanks so much! We hope to see you back soon :)

Saw reviews and was a recommendation from nearby business. Yes food was good, menu had a good variety of items, some were saltier than those at the table preferred, other foods were perfectly seasoned. Was there for lunch, glad we got there early, by 11:40 there was a wait. Parking lot looks big, but was overflowing by noon time. Bathrooms were clean. Servers were excellent. Yes it was loud, when place was full.

I have never experienced a place like this! The atmosphere is really quirky and fun. My favorite is the Cowfish Bento Box which is a mix of a burger and sushi. It's the perfect dish for your first time going. The place is super fun and great to go to with friends. This is also a great place to take kids!

If you just drove by the building, you probably wouldn't stop and go in! But you'd be missing the best hamburger you every ate. Great food, limited menu, fun, basic environment! Jack Brown's is comfortable, friendly, and food is delicious. Burgers, fries and beer. They have a burger menu with explanation of each burger, and that's what you choose from. That's what you get! No build your own burger. If you don't want something described, you take it off when served. From plain cheese burgers to excellent gourmet burgers, but limited offerings. You add mustard or ketchup. Outstanding fries. The small room is very eclectic and fun. Lights strung from wall to wall. Go early....gets crowded quickly. Worth the wait. Best homemade burger you'll ever have and ingredients and buns are fresh. You want a burger?.........don't miss this place! And craft beers!

We picked a place for lunch with top reviews since we were in town. I was sold with the pimento. I ordered the hot dog with ham, pimento and fried pickles while my husband ordered the paramount burger. It's a big burger with eggs, patties, fried risotto, etc. We also got a basket of fries. The thing I liked most was the antibiotic, free range chicken, and good quality ingredients. The menu isnt huge but everything sounded good. The pimento was really good. But it didn't have a pot on the hot dog. So I asked the waitress and she was so nice and brought me a small dish of it. (Perfect amount). My husband enjoyed his food and I did too. It was so so good. We will definitely come back!

SAW's was recommended to us by hotel staff. Our server was excellent. We started with fried green tomatoes which were delicious. Our servicer made a recommendation which we ordered. We had the pork and greens and grilled catfish and greens. Both were excellent and packed with flavor. This place has a casual atmosphere and great food. You won't be disappointed.
