Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Birmingham worth it?

Absolutely! There’s no better way to experience the beautiful city of Birmingham and its culture than a food tour with a local guide.

What is the most famous food in Birmingham?

With its wide variety of tempting flavors, Birmingham is a food lover’s paradise. Both locals and visitors enjoy the city’s fresh seafood, featuring locally caught fish and shellfish, alongside hearty traditional dishes such as rich stews and freshly baked bread. Birmingham is also celebrated for its artisan cheeses, farm-fresh ingredients, and charming bakeries serving classic sweets. From cozy cafés to bustling markets, the city offers a true taste of its culinary heritage.

Are tourists welcome in Birmingham?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Birmingham tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Birmingham.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Birmingham experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.

Do the tours accommodate vegetarian or gluten-free diets?
