Seating is my first issue here, although it all goes well and adds character to the decor but, sitting on stools for more than 20 minutes becomes very uncomfortable, never mind 2 hours. On to the FOOD: It’s one of the best for me the mixed grills, curry’s and naan’s are perfect and great flavour too. For me based on food and selection of drinks sits in top place in the midlands. It would be nice to see tikka options for the curry’s and maybe chilli chips too as, one diner was a little surprised to not see them on the menu. I did hear some customers mention the prices but, I think it justifies it with great food. A great selection of beers though and spirits too. It only loses points for stools other wise it would be 10/10

Wow what a brilliant find in Birmingham, not far out of the city, but brilliant authentic Indian food in a relaxed atmosphere. Bargi. Prices as well for quality of food and service.

Our party of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our visit at the Hen & Chickens. This is our go to place when visit Birmingham City Centre. Myself and hubby had the large mixed grill with the fish as extra, 2 portions of masala chips and jalfrezi sauce. We even had some left over which our son soon demolished the next day! See you soon.

Food was average, much better mixed grills in other places. The price was too high for what we had. The last time I went to Hen and Chickens was around 5 years ago maybe and the food was outstanding

We hadn't visited the Hen & Chickens since for a few years and we were chuffed to find the food, service and decor had not only stayed at the same great level but had got even better. Each curry has a unique flavour. Incredibly reasonable and delicious.

The mixed grill starter was an excellent way to prepare for the main courses. Every main dish tasted wonderful, was beautifully cooked and well worth the 30 minute walk in the rain. I would definitely book in advance as the Hen & Chickens is rightfully a very popular place to enjoy a first class curry.

Probably my 50th visit here over the years. Staff are polite, friendly and professional. Minimal waiting time. Food is superb and very reasonably priced especially for the City Centre. Great choice of well priced beers.
