Turtle Bay Birmingham

Close to New Street Station and The Bullring, Turtle Bay on John Bright Street brings a vibrant Caribbean atmosphere to the city centre. Soft reggae tunes set the tempo, with a casual yet smart dress code for everything from quick bites to lingering catch-ups.

The menu hums with sunshine flavours: jerk spice, smoke, citrus and coconut. Brunch might mean a folded breakfast roti layered with cream cheese, chilli jam, rocket and sweet pink onion, or sunrise steak and egg with aged grilled rump, Trini-churri, avocado and tomato in a muffin.

Later, small plates like plantain chips or jerk sausage lead into West Indian curries – slow-cooked curry goat or a fragrant Trini coconut curry – and big-spirited platters, from a surf and turf combo with steak and whole sea bream to sticky jerk barbeque with half jerk chicken and ribs. Casual crowd-pleasers await too, from a smashed burger to a crispy chicken burger, with rice and peas, mac and cheese, bara roti and pineapple salsa alongside. The bar keeps the island mood flowing with tropical rum cocktails, plus wines and beers.

Perfect for everyday suppers, birthday brunches and everything in between. Gather your crew, pop in before the show, and let the good vibes roll.
