Cons:
"Thinks it's a bit more special than it is."
"Adds to the feeling that it's a pretentious place, rather than a genuine coffee gem."
"It was quite cold in there too because there are large gaps around the door and windows."
"Starting to feel a little tired and basic. Not very cosy."
"The floor looked like it hadn't been cleaned in days, there was dust and crumbs spread all over."
"The heater and the conduits above us were thick with dust, not very healthy or hygienic."
"What a very poor service we received last week. Having complained to the staff on the day they didn't seem too bothered."
Price
Pros:
"This cost £5.87 after the government discount."
"Great veggie and vegan food dishes too for a treat, reasonably priced and quick service."
"Surprisingly decent prices for Birmingham."
"Good value for money."
"Reasonable price."
"The food was reasonably priced."
"Good prices and very nice coffee."
Cons:
"The staff are all really nice - but the prices are beyond stupid - Cost of living doesn’t justify it."
"I think it's a bit pricey at nearly £10, hence the four star rating."
"The bill was £33.10 which I thought is a bit pricey considering the food was sub-par."
"However, prepackaged smoothies for £4.25 and this tough piece of sourdough with an avocado spread and two pieces of halloumi costing £11 means I won’t be rushing back."
"The price is beyond belief."
"The menu looks good but on the pricier side - slices of cake for £4.20 each is quite a bit."
"Majorly over priced +£4.00 for one extra sausage 😮"
