Amazing food, will 100% go back - Edit
The food was incredible, we tried 4 things in the smaller portions available (small or side options) and really liked them all, personal favourites were the mac n cheese and the mushroom wings 👌👌👌

BA-HA - Edit
BA-HA is a vegan kitchen situated inside the gorgeous Rainbow Pub. The venue is lovely, restored two years ago but has lost none of the charm. I arrived as they opened to relaxed music and a warm welcome. I understand it can get quite lively later on in the evening and the music louder with it. Empty on my arrival but it soon began to fill up with more people looking for a Sunday roast too. There were three options for mains, I went with the King of Roasts which is a chick’n style main made of oyster mushrooms and crumbed. This was accompanied by a mix of potatoes, roast and mash, good selection of veg, stuffing balls and the all important yorkie pud! Honestly one of the best vegan roasts I’ve ever had, absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely be returning and trying some of the other dishes on offer.

Just fantastic - Edit
Note: Baha is actually the name of the kitchen inside The Rainbow pub on the corner of the row of shops.
Read moreAbsolutely stunning interior, great music, and the food did not disappoint. Definitely on the greasy side, but a real treat for vegans looking for pub/american food. Also one of the only places in the country to get a vegan fish n chips!
Pros: Atmosphere , Decoration, Great menu
Cons: Not a very convenient location

Appreciated the entirely vegan menu. I got the Garlic Chicken Sub, and my friend got the Mac n Cheese and the Garlic Wings - everything was delicious! There was also a wide range of drink options, and a cool outdoor seating area. Will definitely be going back.

Food was really nice in a good location but unfortunately, the music in the pub was so loud, that we could only really talk in between songs.

Great Vegan Street Food in Brum! 🍔 - Edit
Being completely vegan, BA-HA just gets it, total safe place for vegan foodies to focus on the experience. An option for a salad or some raw veggies would make this place a 5 star - other than that the place is friendly and perfect.

Pros: The banoffee cheesecake was a very lush treat! , Crispy-ness of the shroom wings was lovely , Nostalgic mac & che*se

Top tier - Edit
Had the no beef brisket, the banana blossom fish and chips and a side of mac n cheese. All were great - the banana blossom was surprisingly fish-like, really flaky texture. Lot of flavour in the brisket with lovely roasties. Would recommend here!

WOWWW - Edit
This place is basically in the rainbow pub. The pub itself is cool, we arrived at like 2/2:30pm on a Sunday and had the roast with two different “meats” (oyster mushroom and lentil loaf). We were suuuuuper happy about the portion sizes and the food was delicious! You could tell it wasn’t half arsed. They meant business lol. The carrots were even delicious! (Other places just boil them that is it). Would love to come back again. The music when we walked in was shockingly loud (and I’m someone who cranks up the volume at my place of work hahah but I couldn’t hear the bar man talking to me) so neurodivergent people be aware. But the DJ actually switched the tunes up to really great 80s bangers which I enjoyed.

Great food as always - Edit
We’ve been to BAHA a few times now and we’re never disappointed. The brisket sub was like a Sunday dinner on a baguette. We ordered all of the starters apart from the hummus and they were all excellent too, especially the spicy wings.

Disappointed - Edit
I have been wanting to visit this place for some time and I’m so gutted it didn’t live up to the hype. We waited 52 minutes for a baguette and chips and the baguette really lacked any sort of flavour.

Unexpectedly underwhelmed. - Edit
Don’t be mistaken if think you’ve entered the wrong place. It is a traditional pub you are looking for.
Read moreMultiple times we were told ‘just so you know, it’s all vegan’ which I can imagine they get lots of people who want traditional pub food.
We went on a day when it was a match day. But we went went the match was playing so it was relatively quiet yet it took nearly an hour for them to do 2 baguettes which seemed like the pre baked kind with some sauce, bit of cheese and hardly any chicken. And a small pot of mac and cheese which was the highlight.
When we ordered everyone was at the match so it was quiet, by the time we waited for an hour the football had finished so the place was packed with people bumping in to the table and we rushed to leave.
If I could. It would be 1 star.
Cons: Took too long. , Don’t got on a match day. , Overpriced.

Loud and food was not good - Edit
Went Sunday in the evening, I thought it was a restaurant but it was more like a bar. People were screaming and talking loud, as well as the music.
Read moreOrdered the bish and chips but the fish was very oily, no taste. The chips were ok. There was a sauce that I could not identify what it was but it wasn’t the mayo that was on the menu. And the smash peas that was tasteless.

Brilliant Roast dinner. - Edit
Had an amazing Kentucky-themed chicken roast with mash, roast pots, kale, carrots, red cabbage & what I think was meant to be a Yorkshire pudding. Would 5 got ⭐️ but could have done with roasties and gravy.

Go for the Sunday roast - Edit
After visiting a couple of times previously, we went in for the Sunday roast. It was banging. A proper roast dinner, just vegan. A filling portion that tasted absolutely amazing- I had the jack mcguinness and it was so rich and had a wonderful texture, along with proper roasties, stuffing, mash, and a fair bit of veg too. Already excited to go for another Sunday visit.
Read morePros: Good value, Great taste, Friendly and welcoming
