Broadway Plaza

At Broadway Plaza there is everything entertainment wise under one roof! Bowling, a casino, Odeon cinema, a Virgin Active gym, a Travelodge as well as some eating establishments. You can definitely wile away a few hours here.
The odeon cinema has recently been refurbished to include a Costa Coffee which is right by the entrance of the cinema, and the foyer area seems a lot more spacious now the ticket office is on the left hand side.
There is a Subway, Dominoes pizza for takeaway, Frankie and Benny’s, and a Dragon BBQ restaurant which serves Chinese cuisine buffet style. A variety of options to suit everyone’s taste buds!
The casino is open to members only, but signing up takes minutes by filling out a form, having a photo taken and showing some ID. There is also a separate bar and restaurant inside.
There is ample parking at the plaza (1400 spaces to be exact) and if you are going to the cinema or gym your ticket can be validated so you get the first three hours free! Brillant!

This is a great place if you need to entertain a large group of friends or family for the day, At a price, If you want go to cinema there is an odeon. Plently of food places ranging from subway to domino’s to frankies n bennys. They have bowling also. It great as group but would be very costly

Probably one of the only places you can go to in Birmingham, which offers an all in one complex with a range of restaurants and entertainment places. Apart from Star City, Broadway Complex is the only other place you can go and the best thing about Broadway is that it’s located within the city centre.
What I love the most about the plaza, is AMC Cinema and the Bowlplex because they are the two places; which I regularly go to. One, the cinema is one of the best in Birmingham. For me, AMC is the best! It’s clean, they have a fast service, plenty of toilets and areas where you can buy your cinema snacks.
The reason why I like Bowlplex is because I can take my little brother and sister in there for a fun time. Inside, they have the bowling area, a restaurant area and a place where people can play arcadian type games.
Overall, the whole complex is fantastic and I’d recommend this place to anyone who’d like to have some fun.

Want all your night’s entertainment in one place because you’re a bit lazy like me? Thinking about booking a taxi to Star City but would rather put the taxi fare to a decent meal? Well, if you’re in the city centre, you could do much worse than heading to the start (or end, depending on which way you look at it) and venturing to Broadway Plaza.
This complex is only a five to ten minute walk from Broad Street’s Cineworld multiplex and houses everything from bowling, a cinema, food, bars and a Travelodge if you love it that much you wanna stay overnight. The establishments are generally big-​name chains including Frankie & Benny’s, Bowlplex and AMC, but you’ll also find the city’s self-​declared ‘premier’ independent Broadway Casino and the try-​it-​at-​least-​once Dragon BBQ Chinese restaurant.
A decent way to spend a weekend night, the big bonus here is clearly that everything is close together so you won’t be taxi-​hopping and the girls of your group won’t be complaining about walking the breadth of Brum in hurty heels. Other parts of Birmingham may have more of a charm to them, but this does the job more than efficiently.

Broadway Plaza has given me:
1) The best ‘mainstream’ cinema in Birmingham (jointly with The Electric),
2) awesome work nights out to bowl at Bowlplex (I never win, but the shiny neon lights and slight disco feel to the place made me happy regardless!)
3) a choice of eateries that actually cater for my supposedly strange eating habits
4) a decked outside space that always makes me feel like I’m at the seaside and not in Birmingham centre
and best:
5) free parking!
Okay, free-​ish parking, that can be redeemed when you go to the cinema. But that’s better than nothing, and when combined with everything else the Plaza has to offer, I make this one of my first choices when trying to plan a cinema night out!

The bowling alley at the broadway plaza is fantastic. Some of the arcade style games are great, in addition to the pool table and air hockey table. Bowling alleys are nice and tidy, and even at its peak busy time it feels spacious. Fantastic to go with friends, family or work. I went with work, my bowling is horrendous but we just had great fun and food available and fairly reasonably priced. Parking is a little tight at best and not cheap. But all worth it for a good day or night out bowling.
