Bottomless Brunch Birmingham for Hen Dos and Birthdays at Lulu Wild

So what is our bottomless brunch?

We run a Chinese restaurant with a cocktail bar attached, sitting on the canal at Brindleyplace beside the Sea Life Centre. The brunch plates are cooked by the team who handle our dim sum and wok dishes every day. So instead of a fry-up with a cocktail, you sit down to two Chinese courses with unlimited drinks.

Neon lights the room, and a proper cocktail bar sits at the heart of it. Most guests say it feels like going out, only it begins around noon.

Who comes to brunch?

It works well for a group of friends getting the weekend started. For two people celebrating a birthday or anniversary, it's an easy booking. For office teams, the fixed price keeps expenses simple. If you're off to a show around the corner, an early sitting fits neatly before it.

Why we went Chinese with brunch

Birmingham does a lot of bottomless brunches, and after a few they start to blur together. Toast, eggs and a cocktail, then the identical plate somewhere new. Our idea was simple: cook brunch the way we cook everything else.

Our chefs work the wok every day, and brunch is cooked with exactly the same attention. The things people love about brunch are all still here, from the refills to the long lunch. Only the plates are different, and they're far more exciting.

How a sitting works

Nothing about it is complicated. This is roughly how your table's time plays out:

1. Pick your sitting. We run sittings from 12pm across Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with 4pm the latest start.
2. Choose a drinks package. It's either the Wild Brunch or the Champagne Upgrade, and the whole table has to match.
3. Pick two courses. Each main comes with a rice bowl shared between two.
4. Sit back. Your 90 minutes begin once you're seated, with refills right up to the end.

An hour and a half is enough to eat properly and enjoy several drinks, with time left for plans later. Want to keep going? The bar stays open until 2am on Fridays and Saturdays.

The food, briefly

The menu is short on purpose, so ordering never takes long. It's one starter and one main per person.

To start: Aromatic Crispy Duck Roll, Crispy Chilli Wings, Crispy Lotus Salad (vegan), Bang Bang Chicken Salad and Shiitake & Shimeji Mushroom Truffle Spring Roll (vegan).

Mains: Sanpei Chicken, a take on Taiwanese "three cup" chicken; Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu (vegan, gluten-free); Stir-Fry Tender Chicken in Preserved Black Bean Sauce; Stir-Fry Black Pepper Vegetarian Chicken (vegetarian); Spicy King Prawn (gluten-free); and Pomegranate Sweet & Sour Pork.

If you're still hungry, sides are extra and run from £3.50 to £6.00, including egg fried rice, pak choi with garlic and tenderstem broccoli. Rice upgrades are available too, starting at +£1 for egg fried rice and going up to +£4.50 for stir-fried shredded chicken noodles.

If you're vegan, you'll find two starters and a main, plus a vegetarian main for veggies. Both the Spicy King Prawn and the Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu are gluten-free.

Your drinks options

£45: the Wild Brunch

The standard deal pairs your two courses with 90 minutes of bottomless Prosecco, Pornstar Martinis, Lychee Martinis and mocktails. Switching between Prosecco and a couple of cocktails keeps the sitting interesting.

Lychee is a flavour our bar uses a lot, so the Lychee Martini felt like a natural fit. It's a lighter, fruitier pick if you fancy a break from the fizz.

Going for Champagne

For an extra £9.95 a head, unlimited Champagne and rosé Prosecco join the list. If the day calls for a proper toast, this is the one.

If you're off the booze

If you're not drinking, you can switch the Prosecco package for mocktails and soft drinks. We mix alcohol-free cocktails as well, such as a Virgin Pornstar Martini and a Virgin Lychee Martini.

One thing to agree first

The whole table needs to share one drinks package. So if opinions are split on the upgrade, talk it through in advance.

Working out the value

Let's do the arithmetic. A single Pornstar Martini costs £14 on our normal menu, which means a pair already hits £28 with nothing to eat. At brunch, £45 covers two courses and 90 minutes of Prosecco, Pornstar Martinis and Lychee Martinis.

If you'd normally have more than a couple of drinks with lunch, the package pays for itself quickly. After just one drink and a smaller plate? Our lunchtime menu might suit you more. Do note there's an optional 12.5% service charge on the bill.

Is the Champagne Upgrade worth it? Your total per person comes to £54.95 with it added. If your group was always going to want Champagne, it's well worth adding.

Any sides or rice upgrades come on top of the £45, so factor them in if needed.

Friday, Saturday or Sunday?

Every Saturday sitting has a DJ, so it's the loudest of the three. That makes it ideal for groups who want to make some noise.

Our Friday and Sunday sittings tend to be quieter and easier on the voice. Friday kicks things off early, whereas Sunday is made for taking it easy.

Saturdays go quickest, so early booking is a good idea.

Your start time changes the feel of the afternoon. A 12pm start leaves the rest of the day free, which is bottomless cocktails Birmingham handy if you have plans later. A 4pm start leads straight into the evening, which works well on Fridays and Saturdays when we're open until 2am.

A few things we'd suggest

• Get here on the dot. Your 90 minutes are fixed, so a late start only shortens your sitting.
• Eat early on. A plate of wings early on does wonders for the rest of the day.
• Drink some water. A glass between rounds goes a long way.
• Decide on drinks beforehand. One package covers everyone, so sort it out with your group well before you arrive.
• Plan the trip home. Look up trains or arrange a taxi before the drinks start.

Do drink sensibly. Our team will look after you and make sure everyone gets home safely.

Booking for a crowd

Group bookings are easy when food and drink sit under one price. Bigger parties can use our private spaces, The Nest and The Hideout, and the events team can help with decorations or a cake arranged in advance. See our private hire page for the details.

When the 90 minutes are up

When the timer stops, the afternoon doesn't have to. Our hours run to 11pm from Sunday to Thursday, and 2am on Friday and Saturday.

The rest of our menu

Our brunch is just one side of Lulu Wild. The dim sum is made right here, in steamed, pan-fried and baked versions. Have a look at our food menu for aromatic duck, XO prawns and wok classics, alongside plenty of vegan choices. If brunch wins you over, dinner is worth a return trip.
