Tropea Italian Trattoria
Tropea
A neighbourhood Italian in Harborne known for sharing plates and handmade pasta, recommended by the Michelin Bib Gourmand in both 2024 and 2025.
Tropea is a cosy southern Italian neighbourhood restaurant on Lordswood Road in Harborne, on the city's south-west edge. The menu changes regularly and centres on sharing plates. It was recommended by the Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2024 and 2025. The Michelin Guide says it carries on the Italian ideal of simple, direct flavours, and suggests asking the staff to help you order. The rabbit ragù pasta, arancini and tiramisu are the most praised dishes. Expect around £35–50 per person; ordering several plates will cost more. Booking is advisable. Parking nearby is limited, so taking a bus from the city centre is a good option.
