A great museum. Went here on a Saturday afternoon and whilst it was quite busy, the layout meant there was still lots of space and also there are more than enough members of staff around.
There is a very nice cafe/ tearoom to purchase food and drinks. Again lots of staff meaning customers get great service.

What fantastic afternoon, we spent there! Beautiful building, inside and out! Lots to see especially this week as it's half term. Saw stuff they were showing the children that were part of my childhood😁 my kids were bright eyed over the exhibits and were interested to see and hear what the staff was explaining to them. The cafe was absolutely beautiful, and tastefully furnished. The whole place was a joy to go through and the kids enjoyed it as much as me!😊there was lots of exhibits to see and some to interact with, they also had a room for the kids to play in.
The staff were fantastic and

This museum was massive! The building itself is beautiful and inside there is so much to explore. Art and photography from beautiful to confusing to fun. If you like art there's bound to be something here you'll enjoy. I had a great time and would definitely come back again as I didn't have enough time to explore it all.

Such a beautiful place to visit if you appreciate ancient relics and old buildings, as well as fascinating art. Sumerian clay work, Anglo-Saxon jewellery and an Egyptian mummy have captured me. These objects are priceless and older than many would believe. The art is mind blowing. Especially the Lucifer statue. There is much more to see. Give yourself time to enjoy this place. Savour it.

Great museum in the centre of Birmingham. Basic coffee shop inside but staffed by a lovely girl. Brilliant little section on Egyptians & an interesting temporary exhibit on the sinister aggression of cuteness.
Lots of art works - well restored and looked after. I enjoy take photos of these for classical art memes. Pics attached; have fun captioning then! 😄

Very enlightening!!! Built with deep research and careful planning.
Everything is layed out perfectly to take you on an interesting journey through ancient and modern history of the development of Birmingham. The pertinent use of visual aids, like models and graphics, helps one recreate passages of time and see through how Birmingham started & evolved over time.
We went there with kids of various ages up to the age of 12 years and all of them were deeply engaged.
There is a coffee shop on the 1st floor with a variety of snacks and hot beverages.

This museum is bigger than it looks. I've seen plenty of archaeology and art, so I decided to start in the Birmingham history part of the museum first and found myself still there after an hour and a half. Definitely the place to go to get a good bit of local history, covering the city's history from medieval times through it's industrial past, through pre-modern to the present.
I didn't have much time to visit the other parts of the museum, but I did notice that the archaeological sections were not extensive. That is except for the Staffordshire Hoard exhibition which is dedicated to the Anglo
