Chez Jules

I went with a party of 16 people, so that required us to put down a deposit of £5 per head when the booking was made. Food was nice but there was quite a wait for it. We weren't sure if it was due to the size of the party or if they usually take that long anyway. There were only 4 other people in the restaurant with us.

I've been going to Chez Jules for quite a few years now and it's one of my favourite places to meet friends for lunch and a catch up.

It's just off New Street in Birmingham city centre. The exterior is attractive and inviting.

The staff have always been friendly when I've been there, and there's quite a few good looking waiters, which helps...

I always go for the set meal special offers, which are very good value. A two course lunch is £7.95, then an early dinner from 5 to 7pm is £10. There is a choice of about three main courses and starters.

I especially like the dauphnoise potatoes, they are so creamy. The portions are a generous size. I usually have fish or chicken, and it's lovely. No-one has ever complained about the food and we've all been pleased.

Chez Jules has a good selection of wines on offer.

The only criticism I can make is that the wooden benches are not very comfortable. But I keep coming back here and have been here for birthday meals and special occasions.

It's nice to have somewhere to go that is a local independent place with atmosphere rather than a chain.
