Think Chinese plates, 90 minutes of top-ups and a price of £45 per person. This guide covers how it all works, what's on the menu, whether it's worth the money, which day to pick and how to find us.

Bottomless brunch, the Lulu Wild way
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. You get a proper Chinese starter and main, with drinks that keep coming while you eat.
The dining room is lit with neon, and our bar looks after the drinks. It feels more like a night out that happens to start at lunchtime.
Who comes to brunch?
It's a good fit for friends catching up after a long week. Couples marking a birthday or an anniversary will find it works just as well. For office teams, the fixed price keeps expenses simple. If you're off to a show around the corner, an early sitting fits neatly before it.
A brunch that skips the eggs
Birmingham has no shortage of boozy brunches, and plenty of them follow the same script. Toast, eggs and a cocktail, then the identical plate somewhere new. We wanted our brunch to match what our kitchen actually does.
Our chefs work the wok every day, and brunch is cooked with exactly the same attention. The things people love about brunch are all still here, from the refills to the long lunch. The difference is what turns up on your plate.
Your sitting, explained
There isn't much to figure out. This is roughly how your table's time plays out:
- Pick your sitting. Sittings start from 12pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and the last one is at 4pm.
- Settle the package. Pick between the Wild Brunch and the Champagne Upgrade, keeping in mind one package covers the table.
- Get your food in. Every main includes rice, served as one bowl per pair.
- Enjoy your 90 minutes. From the moment you take your seat, the glasses stay topped up for the full sitting.
An hour and a half is enough to eat properly and enjoy several drinks, with time left for plans later. Anyone not ready to leave can carry on, since we're open until 2am on Fridays and Saturdays.
A quick look at the menu
We keep the list tight, which makes choosing quick. You pick one starter and one main each.
Openers: Crispy Chilli Wings, Bang Bang Chicken Salad, Aromatic Crispy Duck Roll, Crispy Lotus Salad (vegan) and Shiitake & Shimeji Mushroom Truffle Spring Roll (vegan).
Mains: Sanpei Chicken, a take on Taiwanese "three cup" chicken; Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu (vegan, gluten-free); Stir-Fry Tender Chicken in Preserved Black Bean Sauce; Stir-Fry Black Pepper Vegetarian Chicken (vegetarian); Spicy King Prawn (gluten-free); and Pomegranate Sweet & Sour Pork.
Bigger appetites can add sides, from £3.50 to £6.00, such as pak choi with garlic, egg fried rice or tenderstem broccoli. You can also upgrade your rice, from egg fried rice at +£1 up to stir-fried shredded chicken noodles at +£4.50.
There are two vegan starters, a vegan tofu main and a vegetarian main on the list. Two mains, Spicy King Prawn and Stir-Fry Spicy Tofu, are gluten-free.

The drinks packages
Wild Brunch: £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.
The Lychee Martini is a nod to our bar, where lychee turns up in plenty of our cocktails. Never had one before? Brunch is the perfect chance to try it.
Champagne Upgrade: +£9.95
Add £9.95 per person and we'll pour unlimited Champagne and rosé Prosecco too. Plenty of tables go for it when there's something to celebrate.
If you're off the booze
Non-drinkers can swap the Prosecco package for mocktails and soft drinks, so nobody misses out. We mix alcohol-free cocktails as well, such as a Virgin Pornstar Martini and a Virgin Lychee Martini.
One rule to know
One package applies to every person at the table. So if opinions are split on the upgrade, talk it through in advance.
The maths behind the price
Let's do the arithmetic. Order two Pornstar Martinis from our usual list at £14 each and you've spent £28 without a starter in sight. Brunch, at £45, gets you two courses and 90 minutes of those drinks on repeat.
For a table that likes a few drinks, the maths works in your favour early on. After just one drink and a smaller plate? Our lunchtime menu might suit you more. Do note there's an optional 12.5% service charge on the bill.
What about the Champagne Upgrade? At £9.95 extra, it takes the total to £54.95 per person. Should Champagne be on your list anyway, the upgrade is a simple decision.
Sides and rice upgrades sit outside the £45, so add those on if your table is hungry.
The best day for brunch
Every Saturday sitting has a DJ, so it's the loudest of the three. That makes it ideal for groups who want to make some noise.
Fridays and Sundays are more relaxed, which suits a catch-up. Friday kicks things off early, whereas Sunday is made for taking it easy.
Expect Saturday to book up before Friday or Sunday.
Don't forget to think about which sitting you want. An early sitting from 12pm means you're done with plenty of the day left. Pick the 4pm sitting if you'd like brunch to carry on into the night, ideally on a Friday or Saturday.
Making the most of your 90 minutes
- Arrive on time. Your 90 minutes are fixed, so a late start only shortens your sitting.
- Order food early. You'll feel much better later if you eat near the start.
- Keep water on the table. A glass between rounds goes a long way.
- Decide on drinks beforehand. Since the whole table shares one package, agree on it in the group chat before the day.
- Book your ride first. Sort the journey home before your first Prosecco, not after your fourth.
We'd ask everyone to drink responsibly. Our team will look after you and make sure everyone gets home safely.
Bringing a group
A fixed price for food and drink makes group plans much simpler. Bigger parties can use our private spaces, The Nest and The Hideout, and the events team can help with decorations or a cake arranged in advance. Details are on our private events page.
How to find us
You'll find us at Unit 7 & 8 The Waters Edge, Brindleyplace, Birmingham B1 2HP, next to Sea Life on the canal.
- Broad Street: a two-minute walk away.
- Utilita Arena: roughly five minutes following the canal.
- Birmingham New Street station: about ten minutes' walk.

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.
Coming from New Street, the walk is about ten minutes, and Broad Street is only two minutes from our door. If you're already by the water, follow the towpath from Gas Street Basin or the ICC.
Pairing brunch with a show
Utilita Arena, the ICC and Symphony Hall are all a short walk from us. If your show is in the evening, an early brunch slot fits neatly in front. Our pre-show dining menu suits anyone eating nearer the show.
Not ready to leave?
There's no need to leave once your sitting finishes. We're open until 11pm Sunday to Thursday and until 2am on Fridays and Saturdays.
Signature serves come with dry ice and use flavours from the kitchen, such as yuzu, lychee, elderflower and rhubarb. Look out for the Fortune Cookie at £13.50, the China Silk at £13.25 and the Lucky Dragon at £12.75. The full list is on our cocktail bar page.
Coming back for dinner
There's a lot more to us than brunch. The dim sum is made right here, in steamed, pan-fried and baked versions. The main menu covers aromatic duck, XO prawns and wok classics, with veggie and vegan dishes throughout. Brunch is a good first taste, and dinner is the next step.
Our charity partner for 2026/2027 is Birmingham Dogs Home, and we're really pleased to be backing the work they do.
