The independently owned outlets of Metro Bar and Grill offer customers a chance to enjoy modern European cuisine in an elegant atmosphere. You could visit their venues located in the centres of Birmingham and Solihull to grab a quick bite or a leisurely meal with the family or colleagues.

The menu offers steaks, grills and seafood, together with a tempting selection of pastas, salads and light dishes, all complemented by a well-chosen selection of drinks that include wine, champagne, real ale and beer.

Consider starting with crispy duck salad; marinated halloumi cheese with mixed leaves and pesto or smoked haddock fishcakes, all of which are Metro classics. You could have these dishes as starters, or mains for an extra amount, or choose others such as fish and chips with tartare sauce, steaks, and gammon and eggs.

The winter menu opens with game terrine with cranberry, apple chutney and toast, and goes on to offer steamed mussels, slow braised beef, oxtail and mushrooms, and wild boar chops.

Puddings encompass crème brûlée and spiced poached pear.
