The best pub & Thai restaurant in Brum real ales and fresh Thai food = Magic
Our reverie was shattered by a chilly reception from a sullen waitress. We hadn't booked. She said she 'supposed it would be okay for us to have a table' despite a half empty dining room. The table she offered us had clearly had a few too many pints, so w
4 of us had a delicious meal. It was a Wed so very quiet and lacking atmosphere. It still highly recommended
Great pub with easy access by bus. Lovely authentic historical decor including snob screens. Great choice of well kept beers and proper Thai food!
Warm welcome, great service, excellent thai food, historic building. We always come back when in town. Can't praise this place enough. 25 years under the same management. 👍
Seriously the best Thai food I’ve ever tasted. 6 of us went for food and all of us were so impressed. Not one complaint on food or service. We’ll definitely be back again.
First time here. Had a choice of two menus the a la carte and the St menu. Both very reasonably priced. Food was very tasty. Was quiet in the restaurant all the old fixtures of the pub as its a listed building. Would go again.
It's been a long time since I've been here, and the food is amazing. If you love Thai food, you won't be disappointed.
Amazing flavours, good portions and beautifully presented dishes. Friendly, smiley and helpful staff. Good range of beers and ales at the bar and in the restaurant.
Interesting decor, the owners have kept the building and character very well maintained. If I had a point out any negatives my only one would be the bright lighting.
I had previously dined here years ago and it has definitely kept up the high standard of great food, highly recommended for a works night out.
The best Thai food, with generous portions
A wonderful pub with great food and atmosphere, from the outside it looks like a modest looking pub, but inside you have a beautiful Victorian wonder. Superb if travelling up from London again, it will definitely be on my list of places to go.
Welcome to Birmingham. Welcome to The Bartons Arms.
I usually, when visiting a pub, I take a couple of quick photos of the pub sign and walk in. At the Barton Arms I didn't know where to point my camera. There was so much to delight the eyes. The red brick building occupies a substantial space on the corner of the high street in Aston. As you look around outside, remember to look up and up again. The beauty continues well beyond its second floor.
The eye candy continues as you enter. The ceiling is high. The centre piece is the fine rounded wooden bar area. The eyes are carried to the grand staircase and sparkle as they take in the decorative percaline wall craft. To the right is a beautiful 19th century style bar. To the right is the restaurant, fashioned out of the original lounge area. The stain glass window at the far end of the restaurant is awesome.
I was sat at a table that was more accustomed to resting a pint on than a dish. The service was attentive and accurate. I felt it could have been more relaxed, smiley to bring that warmth I enjoy.
The food arrived quickly. The Bartons Arms offer great examples of Thai cuisine. Very flavoursome. At lunch time an express lunch is offered. For £10.50, you can order a starter and main. Excellent value for money. I couldn't argue about the quality of the food. I would love to see the dishes presented differently. Do away with the standard white crockery. What about some 2 tone coloured fine china. Try some variations on the presentation of the food too.
The Bartons Arms is a hidden gem in Birmingham. A pub I would happily recommend to anyone visiting our humble city. The Thai food it offers is excellent value for money. Some food and service presentation tweaks would make The Barton Arms be the Thai Restaurant of choice in Birmingham.
