The Blue Piano

You're walking into somewhere that feels like it's got actual personality — the kind of place where the staff know what they're doing and aren't trying too hard about it. The Blue Piano sits nicely on Harborne Road, that strip that's quietly becoming one of Brum's better eating streets, and it's got the sort of unpretentious vibe that makes you want to come back. The food's straightforward but thoughtful, and they're clearly taking their drinks seriously without being annoying about it. It's the sort of spot you'd take friends who actually have opinions about where they eat.
