What is bottomless brunch at Lulu Wild?
Our home is a canal-side spot in Brindleyplace, next door to Sea Life, where we run a Chinese kitchen and a cocktail bar. Everything on the brunch menu comes from the kitchen that makes our dim sum and wok cooking all week. So instead of a fry-up with a cocktail, you sit down to two Chinese courses with unlimited drinks.
The dining room is lit with neon, and our bar looks after the drinks. Honestly, it has the energy of a Saturday night, just a lot earlier.
Is it right for you?
Friends who haven't seen each other in a while will feel right at home. It suits couples too, especially for a birthday or an anniversary. For office teams, the fixed price keeps expenses simple. Heading to a show nearby? Grab an early sitting first.
Why our brunch is Chinese food
There are lots of bottomless brunches in this city, and many of them look almost identical. Toast, eggs and a cocktail, then the identical plate somewhere new. Our idea was simple: cook brunch the way we cook everything else.
Because our chefs cook Chinese food every day, nothing on the brunch menu is an afterthought. What makes a brunch great is still on the table: plenty of drinks and a slow afternoon. The food is just a lot more interesting.
How a sitting works
There isn't much to figure out. Here's how a typical sitting goes:
- Pick your sitting. Sittings start from 12pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and the last one is at 4pm.
- Settle the package. It's either the Wild Brunch or the Champagne Upgrade, and the whole table has to match.
- Get your food in. Each main comes with a rice bowl shared between two.
- Sit back. Your 90 minutes begin once you're seated, with refills right up to the end.
Ninety minutes gives you time for both courses and a good few rounds without losing the whole day. On Fridays and Saturdays the bar doesn't close until 2am, so there's no rush.
What's on the menu
There's a focused set of dishes, so nobody spends ages deciding. Everyone orders a starter plus a main.
Openers: Crispy Chilli Wings, Aromatic Crispy Duck Roll, Shiitake & Shimeji Mushroom Truffle Spring Roll (vegan), Bang Bang Chicken Salad and Crispy Lotus Salad (vegan).
For your main: Stir-Fry Tender Chicken in Preserved Black Bean Sauce; Sanpei Chicken, based on Taiwanese "three cup" chicken; Spicy King Prawn (gluten-free); Stir-Fry Black Pepper Vegetarian Chicken (vegetarian); Pomegranate Sweet & Sour Pork; and Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu (vegan, gluten-free).
If you're still hungry, sides are extra and run from £3.50 to £6.00, including egg fried rice, pak choi with garlic and tenderstem broccoli. And the rice can be swapped, with egg fried rice at +£1 and stir-fried shredded chicken noodles at +£4.50 among the choices.
There are two vegan starters, a vegan tofu main and a vegetarian main on the list. Spicy King Prawn and Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu are both gluten-free.

Bottomless drinks, explained
The Wild Brunch package, £45
Our core package includes both courses and 90 minutes of unlimited Prosecco, Pornstar Martinis, Lychee Martinis and mocktails. With fizz and two martinis to rotate through, nothing gets repetitive.
You'll spot lychee across our cocktail menu, so a Lychee Martini on brunch made sense. Never had one before? Brunch is the perfect chance to try it.
Adding the Champagne Upgrade
Add £9.95 per check here person and we'll pour unlimited Champagne and rosé Prosecco too. If the day calls for a proper toast, this is the one.
If you're off the booze
If you're not drinking, you can switch the Prosecco package for mocktails and soft drinks. We mix alcohol-free cocktails as well, such as a Virgin Pornstar Martini and a Virgin Lychee Martini.
One thing to agree first
We can't mix packages on a single table. It's worth having that chat in the group chat before you turn up.
Does £45 add up?
It's worth running the numbers. Our standard menu prices the Pornstar Martini at £14, so a couple of them is £28 on their own. At brunch, £45 covers two courses and 90 minutes of Prosecco, Pornstar Martinis and Lychee Martinis.
Anyone expecting to drink more than two cocktails will find brunch the better deal. If you only want one glass and something light, our lunch menu is probably a better fit. Do note there's an optional 12.5% service charge on the bill.
And the Champagne Upgrade? Adding it brings your brunch to £54.95 per person. If Champagne and rosé Prosecco are what you'd be ordering anyway, it's an easy yes.
Keep in mind that sides and rice upgrades are charged on top of the £45 price.
Choosing between the three days
Every Saturday sitting has a DJ, so it's the loudest of the three. It's the one to pick if you want brunch to feel like a celebration.
Fridays and Sundays are more relaxed, which suits a catch-up. Friday kicks things off early, whereas Sunday is made for taking it easy.
Saturdays go quickest, so early booking is a good idea.
Your start time changes the feel of the afternoon. A 12pm start leaves the rest of the day free, which is handy if you have plans later. A 4pm start leads straight into the evening, which works well on Fridays and Saturdays when we're open until 2am.
First time? A few pointers
- Don't be late. The clock is set, so turning up late just means less brunch.
- Eat early on. You'll feel much better later if you eat near the start.
- Keep water on the table. Your evening will be better for it.
- Decide on drinks beforehand. The table has to match, so make the call together a few days ahead of time.
- Book your ride first. Look up trains or arrange a taxi before the drinks start.
Look after yourselves and drink responsibly. Our staff are here to make sure you have a great time and get home safe.
Booking for a crowd
Group bookings are easy when food and drink sit under one price. Our two private areas, The Nest and The Hideout, suit larger groups, and the events team can sort decorations and a pre-arranged cake. Everything is on the events hire page.
How to find us
We're at Unit 7 & 8 The Waters Edge, Brindleyplace, Birmingham B1 2HP, beside the Sea Life Centre and just off the canal.
- Broad Street: roughly two minutes away walking.
- Utilita Arena: about five minutes along the canal.
- Birmingham New Street station: roughly ten minutes on foot.
- Gas Street Basin and the ICC: an easy walk on the towpath.
The nearest car park is Q-Park Brindleyplace, roughly two minutes from our door. Honestly, with unlimited Prosecco on the table, we'd leave the car at home.
New Street is roughly a ten-minute walk, and once you reach Broad Street we're about two minutes off. Already on the canal? Walk along the towpath from Gas Street Basin or the ICC.
Heading to a gig afterwards?
Utilita Arena, Symphony Hall and the ICC are all just round the corner. If your show is in the evening, an early brunch slot fits neatly in front. For something quicker, closer to start time, we also do a pre-show menu.
Not ready to leave?
When the timer stops, the afternoon doesn't have to. The bar serves until 11pm Sunday to Thursday, and until 2am at the weekend.
Signature serves come with dry ice and use flavours from the kitchen, such as yuzu, lychee, elderflower and rhubarb. Good ones to try are the Lucky Dragon (£12.75), the China Silk (£13.25) and the Fortune Cookie (£13.50). Everything else is listed on our cocktail page.
There's more to Lulu Wild
Brunch is only one part of what we do. Our dim sum is made in-house, and it comes steamed, pan-fried or baked. On the dinner menu you'll find aromatic duck, XO prawns and wok classics, with meat-free options all through it. If brunch wins you over, dinner is worth a return trip.
One more thing we're proud of: Birmingham Dogs Home is our charity partner for 2026/2027, and we're glad to be supporting them.
