Square Meal Review of Cafe Ikon ?

Housed in the Ikon Gallery – Birmingham’s contemporary art space in the beautifully converted Oozells Street School – Café Ikon pleases the crowds with its modern take on tapas. Classics such as patatas bravas, cheese & spinach croquetas, albondigas (meatballs) & calamares à la plancha share the limelight with more up-to-date dishes including scallops with cucumber & mint salsa. Lunchtime specials (three tapas for £7.95) are proving popular – as are the café’s famous paellas – & there is a range of vegetarian options. The revitalised wine list brings together a bunch of eminently drinkable Spanish tipples as well as some fine sherries. Doors open out to fair-weather tables overlooking Oozells Square.

    I am a regular visitor to Ikon Gallery. On my last visit on 03/June I decided to eat at Cafe Ikon. There were plenty of seats free so my friend and I sat outside in anticipation that a waitress will attend to us. After waiting for 15 minutes I approached a waitress. I was told there are about 20 people eating and she would not be able to serve us. I was not given the opportunity to drink and order stuff like olives or bread, the table next to us was served olives. Although the waitress claimed to be busy she did come outside to ensure that we left the restaurant. I would like to visit the restaurant again to try their food and post some comment about it. It seems you do not choose Café Ikon to eat but Café Ikon staff chooses you.
