'Lovely' Birmingham bar set to reopen after unexpected closure last month

A neighbourhood favourite in Stirchley announced it will reopen after more than a month of closure. Cheddar is a cheese and wine bar on the Pershore Road which opened earlier this year.

After gaining a popular following in a short space of time, the bar shut on October 31, stating on social media that the venue required ‘urgent building maintenance’. After several weeks away, the bar has taken to social media again to inform customers that it will return next month.

Cheddar will first reopen on December 5, from 5-11 pm. After that, the bar will return to normal service the following week and be open every Thursday-Sunday.
