Birmingham City Centre After dark

Apart from the high standard of accommodation on offer, Unihousing is an undeniably appealing choice of letting agents due to the fact that their properties sit in a tantalisingly close distance from Birmingham’s city centre. The nightlife within the city centre of Birmingham will make a perfect accompaniment to your time as a student living away from home, and will help you to simply have fun when you are not doing more academic-related activities.

Although everyone is different, everyone should find something here that pleases them. And, given that the city centre is so easy to reach due to it being well-served by its public buses and train links, making a visit to this vibrant place is also very convenient.

To start with, Birmingham city centre is a superb place to enjoy a first-rate meal. Not only does this mean having a break from putting something together yourself for dinner, it also means that you can really relax and indulge with some spectacular tasting food, whilst soaking-up the energy of the atmosphere around you. If it’s an unending supply of delicious grub to really fill you up that you are seeking, then a range of buffet restaurants can be found, such as Ming Moon on Hurst Street, for a tasty Chinese food buffet, and Jimi Spices on Broad Street, with its diverse selection of all-you-can-eat treats for your plate. Neighbouring Jimi Spices, is the more unconventional Rub Smokehouse and Bar. Furnishing your tongue with a whole new experience, Rub takes inspiration from the American South to bring you such flavoursome dishes as Chicken N Waffles and the Giant Pizza Taco, that can be easily washed down with an array of equally exciting beverages.

If you simply can’t decide where to go but are sure you want to have great meal, then head to the Mailbox. Nandos, Red Peppers and Gourmet Burger Kitchen are all located here, as are the more refined options such as the CÔte Brasserie and Bar Estilo.

And if you happen to be eating at the Mailbox in the evening, then you might wish to begin the rest of your night there. The Aluna, for example, is a cocktail bar that endeavours to bring you the most enthralling of flavours, all housed within a splendidly opulent décor, while the more causal Gas Street Social offers a great selection of craft beers and wine as well as a DJ Kitchen at the weekends to get you moving. To further get the night into motion, the contemporary Pennyblacks hosts a live DJ from 8PM on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Making your way out of the Mailbox leads you to Brindley Place. Brindley Place is a beautiful, unique canal side location home to the Slug and Lettuce, Pitcher and Piano and other bars, and it is simply buzzing with energy.  Go a little further and you reach Broad Street, where the volume really increases. This is the place to get moving to some quality sounds, such as the blend of Hip Hop, Trance and RnB at PRYZM, or for a more light-hearted, retro-themed experience, visit Reflex. Also on Broad Street, you will find the comedy venue Jongleurs, and if you are in need of more laughs, make your way over to the Arcadian and watch a show at the Glee Club. Also featuring a brilliant range of bars and restaurants, the Arcadian is not the end of your nightlife options in Birmingham City Centre, as taking the time to venture into Digbeth gives you the opportunity to spend time in places such as the distinctive and vibrant The Rainbow Venues. Here you can enjoy your night in either the Warehouse, the Arena, the Cellar or the Rooftop Mezzanine, sipping your drink of choice while absorbing the sonic joys of one of their live events.

In addition to all of this, the city centre of Birmingham has various theatres to keep you entertained plus cinemas, both large multiplexes and smaller independent offerings such as the Electric Cinema, which is the oldest working cinema in the UK.   

Without question, making the trip into Birmingham city centre for the evening is a convenient way to make your time living in this city much more enjoyable. Finding the time to do so may be just the thing to help you unwind from your busy academic schedule, and with so much here to suit all tastes, it is sure to help enrich your overall student experience.
