New Street highlights
New Street runs from the Bullring to the Town Hall, and along this stretch you'll find quite a few fascinating shops. You can visit Primark and Watches of Switzerland, or you can stop by The Body Shop and Jack Wills for high-end merchandise. You'll also find the Odeon cinema and coffee shops like Second Cup and Starbucks.
Off the main street, you'll find several narrow paths that lead to hidden gems you won't want to miss out on. The Disorder Boutique on Needless Alley is a local favourite, and Autograph and Cloudo on Ethel Street are among Birmingham's best fashion retailers that have retained their independence.
