Steak in the Sky!

I took my husband to Marco Pierre White Steakhouse for his birthday, the steak were lovely - we had a view of the skyline of Birmingham - admittedly it was raining but it has made us want to return, when the weather is clear for cocktails or afternoon tea. We paid and upgraded to filet steak - initial thoughts, was it was small - but it was more than enough with the extras, we paid for. The service was quick prompt and the staff friendly. The Cube is a great alternative to the Shard, if you can't get to London - not quiet the dame views, but food was great!

Perfect gift

The gift was brilliant. We opted for the three course meal rather than afternoon tea option as we both love steak. We ordered sides to go with it in addition but think just the three course meal would've been plenty. The staff were brilliant and there was a nice ambience at the Birmingham restaurant. The food was lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to go back again!
