Matthews of Birmingham, the new restaurant at the Custard Factory that finally brings a touch of fine dining to Digbeth, is now open and serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. I went there for lunch the other day and there were a few minor teething problems (the poor souls have no lids for their teapots) but the proof, as they say, is in the pudding. I didn’t have pudding but my main course of chicken casserole was delicious – a really good bit of meat beautifully cooked.
It looks nice, but what are the prices like? And the toilets?
