Here is a high-quality, detailed review as requested:

The Rectory & 180 Club Menu at 50-54 St Paul's Square in Birmingham delivers an engaging blend of elevated pub classics and playful, experiential dining that genuinely stands out in the city’s ever-evolving food scene.

From the moment you step into The Rectory’s warmly lit dining room, the atmosphere sets the tone for a relaxed yet refined experience. Their menu offers a carefully curated selection that balances indulgence with familiar comfort. The slow-braised beef cheek with truffle mash and red wine jus, for example, is a standout-tender, flavourful, and generously portioned. It’s clear the chefs take time to perfect texture and seasoning, not just presentation. Vegetarians and vegans aren’t left behind either; the roasted cauliflower steak and heritage beetroot salad show a level of culinary care rarely extended to plant-based options in pub-style venues.

Downstairs, the 180 Club adds a unique twist. While the vibe is more casual, centred around interactive darts and social dining, the food maintains a high standard. Their loaded fries and buttermilk fried chicken sliders are ideal for sharing-crispy, punchy, and cleverly plated for minimal mess during gameplay. This dual concept-sophisticated upstairs, sporty downstairs-makes the venue particularly versatile, whether for date nights or casual group outings.

Service is another strong point. Staff are knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer pairing suggestions, particularly from their extensive gin and cocktail list.

Compared to other nearby gastropubs, The Rectory & 180 Club Menu offers a more memorable experience thanks to its creative dual-space design, consistent quality across the board, and elevated flavour execution. Whether you're seeking a sit-down meal or social fun with great food, this spot earns high marks across ambiance, taste, and versatility.
