Really nice ambiance in this place, food was really tasty and the service was fantastic! I would say, there was a little mishap with our orders but was put right instantly by the manager. I would highly recommend this place for anyone staying at the Hilton metropole or in the local area. Well worth a visit, and the cocktail presentation is amazing!

The food and drinks were delicious and nicely presented. We had the pleasure of being served by George during a recent visit, and I must say, he truly elevated our dining experience, as he was attentiveness and warm, and made us feel looked after throughout.

Nice food and lovely ambiance. Excellent service at time a bit slow, if you are not in a hurry then no problem.. I have my meal here while staying in the hilton metropole. It’s dinner all the time. Food n desert menu are a bit limited.

I stayed at the Hilton over the weekend and we were lucky enough to experience Brightsmith. As the restaurant hasn't had the official opening yet it was fairly quiet but the menu was still extensive for food and drinks. We started off only ordering cocktails but did move onto the food after seeing the prices. Slightly higher than other places (as you'd expect from the Hilton) but portion sizes were plentiful and definitely worth the money. The drinks were stunning and had a flair to them that you won't get in most places. We thoroughly enjoyed what we tried. You can also order non-alcohol versions of the cocktails but the price won't change due to the use of a non-alcohol spirit (it isn't just juice). We did have some issues with incorrect food coming out (we ordered risotto sides but received mains) however the staff ensured we were not charged incorrectly and corrected the bill with ease. Apologies were also given. All in all, lovely decor, amazing food and drinks. I will be back next time I am in Birmingham. Pictured is various cocktails, tomato risotto main and chicken lollipop tapas.

Visiting Brightsmith is always a pleasure. The food is packed full of flavour, clearly high quality ingredients used and everything is beautifully executed. The staff are attentive and service runs very smoothly. Decor is beautiful and luxurious, overlooking Pendigo lake it makes for the perfect place to date or catch up with friends over a seriously delicious meal.
