Fireaway Harborne

Walk up Harborne High Street and you'll spot Fireaway doing exactly what it says on the tin: firing up pizzas in a proper wood-fired oven. This is the kind of place where locals queue on Friday nights because the food actually warrants it, not because it's Instagram-famous. The pizzas arrive with blistered, leopard-spotted crusts and toppings that don't pretend to be something they're not — just quality ingredients done simply. It's takeaway-focused, which means you're getting food made to order, cooked hot, at prices that won't have you questioning your life choices. Harborne's got plenty of spots trying too hard; this one just gets on with it.
