British Restaurants in Birmingham
Alberta, are you referring to the British Restaurants that sprang up around the end of the war? These were set upwhen rationing was in force
and I think they were meant for workers to have a decent meal at lunch times. There was one almost next door to the Aston Hippodrome, another
on Aston Cross facing Woolworths, and another in Birchfield Road, Perry Barr, I never ate in any of them but if it was raining we young teenagers would spend a couple of hours over a cup of tea or glass of orange juice.
Until the staff got fed up with us and threw us out.
