If you swear by beers, visiting the Church End Brewery would mean to take a step further. From starting off in a coffin workshop to now selling beers in a social club, the Brewery has sure come a long way. You can know about the process of brewing till its last detail-the master brewer takes you through it himself. Right after the insightful information, gulp down the delicious beers that are signature productions of the brewery. Fruit beers, herb beers, and wheat beers, all have a variety for you to try. They also host beer fests and other concerts and events for food and music (check their calendar for details). The bar requires you to be above 18 years of age; the younger people can enjoy food in the gardens outside.
Since Harborne is full of professionals with money and leisure time to burn, it's surprising there are so few restaurants to accommodate their more rarefied tastes. Henry Wong's is one such place, offering expensive Cantonese cuisine in cool, if rather austere, surroundings. Starters are particularly appetizing, especially the crispy aromatic duck, but all dishes are freshly prepared and come recommended. Service can be offhand, though, if the waiter thinks you might not be quite posh enough.
Situated right in the heart of this small village, this legendary pub is possibly the oldest ale house here. An ambiance and seating reflecting the local traditions, the place is very popular among locals and tourists alike as it also serves food.
