Named after the motoring pioneer Herbert Austin, whose famous car works once dominated Longbridge, Herbert's Yard is a permanent street-food venue and community space at the heart of the town centre south of Birmingham. Run by the multi-award-winning Digbeth Dining Club, it opened in late 2021 and has since become a regional favourite, ranked among the best food halls outside London. The venue is built around a rotating line-up of West Midlands street-food traders, typically up to seven or eight at a time, serving everything from fried chicken and burgers to barbecue, Greek and Indian dishes. Two bars, indoor and outdoor seating and a large beer garden complete the offer, with a cafe and deli adding lunchtime treats during the week. Beyond the food, the timber-and-polycarbonate structure functions as a genuine community hub, hosting comedy nights, quizzes, monthly markets and themed events across its calendar. The first Sunday of each month sees The Herb Garden fill the yard with independent traders, while the space is also available for private hire, parties and corporate functions for groups large and small. Free to enter for general visits, dog-friendly and family-welcoming, the venue keeps a relaxed, accessible atmosphere that has helped it draw crowds from across the city and beyond. Its rotating roster keeps the food offer fresh, and a steady programme of evening entertainment gives it a livelier edge after dark. Located beside Austin Park and a short walk from Longbridge railway station, with a large car park alongside and easy access from the motorway network, Herbert's Yard is conveniently placed for the surrounding suburbs. Part food hall, part bar and part events space, it has become an entertainment hub for an area better known for its industrial past. Its rotating calendar of monthly markets, comedy and live music keeps the line-up fresh from one visit to the next, encouraging regulars to return often.
