  • "The milkshakes were atrocious. I do not recommend them."
  • "Very expensive prices for drinks, but not really anything special to warrant the same."
  • "Had the £12 Vegan burger which wasn't worth it by any means."
  • "The most revolting ‘breakfast’ I’ve ever been served."
  • "While the atmosphere is lovely the servings keep getting smaller and the last few times I've been in I wasn't impressed with the quality, particularly for the cost."
  • "Food very poor value for money and poor quality."

Ambiance & Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "This place is my new favourite, wonderful food and drinks, small area with toys etc for the kids to play and very lovely environment even with two small children."
  • "Cosy atmosphere and friendly staff."
  • "Lovely place with great atmosphere."

Cons:

  • "Nice food but dog unfriendly _ outside the door it is A435 pretty much like the Motorway squeezed in a tiny road."
  • "Table we were sitting was super sticky and dirty... especially menus and 'scan to order cards' pretty nasty."
  • "Full of screaming kids too, not what u want to hear when you’re having a meal with friends."
  • "The place was completely jam packed, clearly it must be good, or so you'd think. The food was boring and bland and the drinks were overpriced and equally rubbish."
  • "Disappointing... A local place that surely could be packed... Not sure why it isn't...though the music moved me on after food. Really awful music, slightly too loud."
  • "Overly full, food really disappointing, had to queue for half an hour to place order, repeatedly asked for water in upstairs drinking jars and never got it."
  • "The only reason why I didn’t give a 5 star is purely because I personally found the place to be a bit too dark on the inside."

Value & Pricing

Pros:

  • "Well worth a visit and parking nearby."
  • "Drink included it was only a little over a tenner per person."
  • "Superb place for the family or on your own with friends. Excellent selection of food all of which was to a high standard and as one of the best breakfasts we've had."
  • "The portion sizes are great, I would recommend the 3 tapas for under £12 option."
  • "Just had a fathers day brunch here, fantastic staff everyone of them friendly and helpful. The food very good cooked fresh and served hot, good selection of food on menu. Would definitely recommend."
  • "One of the best in terms of atmosphere, food, affordability and service!"
  • "The carrot and coriander soup was just to die for!"

Cons:

  • "However, it used to be much better value for money."
  • "Parking says 50p for half an hour but then says you have to put a minimum of 1.50 which covers you until midnight."
  • "Food is good, portions are small, so value for money isn't great."
  • "While I sit here with the overpriced, pretentious breakfast! Not only does the order come wrong, we get no apology."
  • "Most other things on the menu are reheated and often overcooked/dry."
  • "Parking....can park opposite at a charge. Birmingham council has messed up the High Street and made it near impossible to park freely which is now having a very negative impact on retailers."
  • "DUE TO THE MENU CHANGE AND THE BREAKFAST CLUB TAKEN AWAY. THUS NO FREE POT OF TEA, I WON'T BE GOING HERE AGAIN."
