Restaurants
Brightsmith on the Water – 5pm to midnight
Inspired by the artisan crafters of Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter, attention to detail goes into everything. Shimmering glass pendants light up the art deco interiors, while the elevated menu champions local produce and cuisine. Head out to the heated outdoor terrace and enjoy lakeside views, or marvel at the mixologists creating something unique.
The menu is super varied, with mains ranging from steak and burgers to buttered chicken masala and pan-fried sea bass. They cost £24 on average. For an opulent feast, start with calamari, twice-baked gruyère cheese soufflé or even seared wood pigeon breast, then finish with a panna cotta, Swiss dark chocolate tart or a classic cheeseboard.
Gild Lobby Bar & Lounge – Lunch 11am to 3pm. Dinner 3pm to 11pm
The bright, open-plan Gild Lobby Bar & Lounge offers a more relaxed dining experience. But with green velvet booths, a glitzy bar and abstract, expressionist artwork, the Gild feels no less classy than Brightsmith.
Enjoy light bites like nachos, burgers and salads to enjoy with a cocktail or pint. A meal here costs around £20. Or, just relax in a cosy corner with an artisan coffee.
All restaurants have gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options – just ask a member of staff.
