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.

Was so looking forward to this visit but was disappointed. The mixed grill was ok but the curries were not good. More like spicy soup with bits of chicken. Naans were lovely though. We had only just finished our meal and were ushered away from the table. That would have been fine if there was somewhere else to sit but there wasn’t and we stood at the bar to finish our drinks. There are much better curry houses in Birmingham, struggle to understand the hype around this one.

H&C is my favourite Desi pub but today’s offering was only average. Early table so being busy can’t be used an excuse. Specifically asked for the starters to be served first but they arrived with the main course. My starter was cold, as if it had been hanging around in the kitchen while the rest of the food was cooked. Nan bread was not hot either. Don’t mind paying for decent food and this place isn’t cheap. £80 for two for lunch is a lot of cash, least they can do is get it right.

The popadoms normally fresh and crisp were on this occasion a little stale. Otherwise the food was excellent, as usual. There were some issues with the system missing our order, but this was resolved immediately and we didn’t were given money off our bill to compensate.
