NulliSecundus Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Hi all I'm going to the game with a couple of mates, one of whom isn't from Birmingham so we're showing him the ropes tomorrow - German Market, Football and then going for a traditional Birmingham Balti after. We are going to get a cab after the game but want to know where to get it from without being ridiculously stuck in traffic for 20 minutes. Where is the best place to get a cab from after the game towards Balsall Heath and how much would it be? I'm wondering if it's worth heading back to New St first and getting a cab from there... Cheers
rjw63 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Have a pint in the Holte Suite and get a cab from there when it gets quieter. Should be about 7 or 8 quid I can recommend Dawats or Shababs, both very good grub
NulliSecundus Posted November 23, 2012 Author Posted November 23, 2012 We're going to Dawats - didn't know the Holte Suite was open after the game. Do cabs go from near there or will we need to book one?
Brumerican Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Sometimes there will be a black cab just waiting outside the Holte suite . If not there are load of local firms you can just call up . So are you going to Sparkbrook or Balsall Heath ? The triangle does nice food but is such a complete shithole of an area . You can get really good curry nearly anywhere in Brum so I'd suggest going to a nicer area than Sparkbrook or Balsall Heath .
sutherland Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 Yeah taxis rank up outside the holte suite after the game, As above have a beer in there and let the traffic go...
CI Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 Adils on Sparkbrook Lane used to be the place to go Not licensed but they let you take booze in
NulliSecundus Posted November 25, 2012 Author Posted November 25, 2012 Well we had a beer after the game in the Holte. Very impressed that it was only £3.50 for a Hieneken in there tbh. Left the ground at about 5 to 8. Didn't see any cabs (every one outside the Holte seemed to be booked) but got one on the main road by Aston station. Went to Dawats as said, cracking balti. Great day all round - first point I've seen us pick up this season live!!
