Ladana Café Reviews Summary

Staff Service

Pros:

• "One of the staff members saw me from inside and came all the way out to help me up (& down) the steps and made sure we were seated and comfortable."
• "We took my 95 year old father for breakfast. The staff were so kind and attentive."
• "Wonderful place with brilliant service. Had to wait both times we visited but we were sat respectfully and asked if we wanted water and drinks whilst we wait."
• "Dray gave us a good service, checked up if everything was ok."
• "A busy establishment with friendly staff. As a party of 3 with a toddler, we were seated immediately at an uncleaned table which was quickly rectified."
• "The menu at Ladana offers a delightful range of culinary options, catering to different tastes and preferences."
• "Service was great however I was not really impressed with the chicken grilled burger. I've certainly had better."
• "The service definitely needs work as had to keep trying to get attention as food arrived very staggered for our group and had to keep chasing but was not given any cutlery once all food finally arrived."

Cons:

• "When breakfast was served, no cutlery was given. I had to get up from my seat to ask a waiter to fetch me, and when he did, just one napkin was given for the two of us."
• "The hardest part for me was picking what I was going to eat because I wanted one of everything lol."
• "The staff are generally friendly and easy to interact with."
• "Was very confused when I asked for my sister [ 13 ] to be allowed in the main area and sit and have breakfast with us but they said she was too young - yet a couple tables down there was a couple with their 6 year old child?"
• "Very rude hypocrite and sexiest company. They Said they have a dress code to gain access entry on weekends."
• "A busy establishment with friendly staff. As a party of 3 with a toddler we were seated immediately at uncleaned table which was quickly rectified."
• "Uber eats order of shakshuka and this is what I got; watery shakshuka to tell me this is how they make it undercooked and eggs drowning in half filled tub of sauce."
• "Main downside was quite a long wait (45mins) for the actual breakfast items and wait staff weren't able to provide updates either."

Food Quality

Pros:

• "The French toast here is the best in Birmingham I’ve had (chailogy comes close), it’s soft and light, tastes fresh with good strawberries and blueberries."
• "Food was average, I heard very good things about the food but maybe this was not my day to taste a good breakfast."
• "One of the cheapest but best breakfast places in Birmingham. Always busy so the only issue here is getting a seat."
• "I had a spare hour to kill in the morning, so I went here for breakfast. Full English breakfast with halal meats was nicely presented and a good range of drinks to choose from."
• "The menu has a good selection of brunch foods (pancakes, French toast, a fry up, sandwiches etc)"
• "The menu at Ladana offers a delightful range of culinary options, catering to different tastes and preferences."
• "The food was very filling big portions and a very delicious too beautiful ambience very welcoming professional and helpful staff."
• "Food and ambience was amazing. Love the interior and the staff were absolutely amazing."

Cons:

• "Ordered avocado breakfast. It was complete let down. Avocado wasn’t even smashed. And skin was in my food."
• "I would recommend eating here that the prices are at the top end."
• "Very rude hypocrite and sexiest company. They Said they have a dress code to gain access entry on weekends."
• "Order over Uber eats. First of all order came in an hour and 30 minutes. Rang the place been told Uber eats app is playing up. Fair enough. Food came stone cold."
• "The French toast is just large slices of brioche bread lightly fried on both sides, the middle of the slices are completely dry."
• "The food and staff were amazing. I went with my sister who is disabled. Even though they didnt have any wheelchair access, one of the workers named Troy was very helpful."
• "The shisha is okay. Shakshouka went down well but the eggs are overcooked - yolk is set unfortunately."
• "The avocado toast poachy - the bread was not toasted and the poached eggs were severely undercooked, the egg white shouldn't be wet..."

Ambiance and Decor

Pros:

• "Very lovely atmosphere, food tasted great and the staff were very attentive."
• "The hardest part for me was picking what I was going to eat because I wanted one of everything lol. In the end I ordered a Chai latte with the French toast which was dusted with cinnamon and sugar, fresh fruits and served with maple syrup which was to die for (please see image)."
• "Visited here and from the door the decor is beautiful, the facilities are immaculate and the seated areas had heaters which was a nice added feature."
• "The menu at Ladana offers a delightful range of culinary options, catering to different tastes and preferences."
• "First time I have been, safe to say I will definitely be returning in the near future. Fantastic table service, very polite and friendly staff, beautiful interior and exterior deco."
• "This is a long overdue review. I cannot fault this establishment. I have dined in 5 times now and every time I’ve been here it’s been amazing."
• "Great vibe for a shisha spot. Not too loud and the environment is always sensible. Elegant and smart interior."
• "Lovely interior with great customer service. The dining area is quite small. Waiting time for the food was quite long even though we went at a quite time. We had waited for 40 minutes."

Cons:

• "Ambience is not of my liking."
• "Very rude hypocrite and sexiest company. They Said they have a dress code to gain access entry on weekends."
• "The shisha is okay. Shakshouka went down well but the eggs are overcooked - yolk is set unfortunately."
• "No smoking indoors during weekend AM - kids having breakfast."
• "Waited 40 minutes for breakfast. Hot drinks were served within 5 minutes minutes of ordering but couldn’t enjoy this with my breakfast."
• "The only thing I'd suggest is to lower the music as its not a disco, you want to be able to talk without raising your voice."
• "The other thing I really loved was their coffee, they use very good equipment (weighted and timed shots) and relatively freshly roasted beans."
• "The staff were very good to us, food came quickly and was very nice, tasted good and well presented. Good veg options. Good for breakfast / brunch, haven't come in the evening."
