Mr Ralph is a true Digbeth institution. A charming older Irish gentleman who’s invariably found in one of the many Digbeth pubs, peddling goods from his battered old suitcases, which have been specially customised with his own Mr Ralph brand.

Watch out for him in the run up to Christmas, for which he’ll be stuffing his suitcases full of festive goodies.
