The Dry Spy Knowle — Restaurant in Metropolitan Borough of Solihull

I recently held my boyfriends surprise 30th birthday here. I had never seen the venue before the day of the party!! Risky.. but when I turned up to decorate it was perfect.

The room itself is Gatsby inspired, a great size and Sonia made sure everything was as I wanted it. She even accommodated around me and came in early (and waited around) so that I could decorate. Really welcoming from the get go, so thank you Sonia.

Sonia took all of my stress away with regards to timings, playlists, welcome drinks, and even asked what drinks we’d be having the most so she could make sure they were fully stocked. We ordered pizza in (as they do not serve food), but Sonia made sure it was laid out and told us to go and enjoy our night!

I can’t say thank you enough, definitely recommend… I know a few of the guests are looking to host events there...

I recently held my partners surprise party at The Dry Spy as a private hire. Sonia was amazing from start to finish, and felt like she was part of the party. The venue was perfect, the staff were friendly and the drinks were fantastic. I couldn’t recommend The Dry Spy / Sonia and the team more.

Sonia helped ease the stress of organising the party and arranged the music, as well as ordering the pizzas from the local Italian restaurant which were delicious. She ensured that she had our favourite drinks / cocktails available which was above and beyond. She helped me by opening up early so that we could set up and helped us arrange the layout in the best suited way for our event.

The Dry Spy is the perfect place to host a party and to pop in for a drink with a nice atmosphere.

Thank you again...

Since the change over from the previous owners this place has dramatically improved.

The new cocktail menu is fabulous with good quality liquors being used (big fan of the Gatsby’s twist on a pornstar martini with Chase vodka).

The staff are amazing, Sonia and the team are spot on with ensuring the table service is quick and efficient.

Great night out last night with Tom Barnwell Trio performing - I think this place will soon become a regular...
