We decided to have a late lunch but the kitchen was closed because we were late. They only provided drinks and cakes, so it was unlucky for us not to try any hot food there.
However, we're attracted by the decoration and atmosphere. We liked going back to the 60s century's restaurant.
I'll be there in the future and try the vegetarian breakfast 😋
Totally quirky interior- so interesting. Really relaxed vibe with plenty of space so time to chill with our pot of tea. JKT spud needed to be a bit hotter but was pleased to find they sold them. Partner's toastie was also not warm enough. Portions were generous and staff kind.
This place is such a treasure on the Northfield High Street. The decor insight is great and there is a very chilled, family friendly atmosphere. The food is nice, reasonably priced and comes out of the kitchen quickly. This is one of our favourite family spots.
Wow ! Absolutely amazing cafe with so much old memorabilia. Every where you look there's something else to see.
Some items are for sale.
Had the Banana & Caramel Crepe plus a Caramel Latte both delicious.
Also bought a quarter of 'Pear Drops' & 'Pineapple Chunks' from their huge selection of sweets in old style jars, takes me back to when I was a kid.
Plenty of comfy seating.
Great cafe for families 👪
A nice breakfast, runny eggs :-) the plate was a little small so struggled a little to cut things in the beginning. Was a bit more than I'd usually like to pay for a breakfast but almost made up for it with the insanely huuuuge pot of tea. I had a few cups and filled my travel cup for later AND still had tea left!
2nd visit: eggs on toast. One runny one not :-/ but still a keg of tea and nice breakfast.
I was incredibly hung over when I came in on a Saturday morning with my friends and their dog (this is a dog friendly cafe). We all sat in a comfortable booth and enjoyed the atmosphere. The waiting staff were all attentive and friendly, fussing over the dog and making sure we were doing ok. I ordered a light breakfast with no beans. The food choice isn’t large here but for a Saturday morning revival it was perfect. The coffee was great too.
The real reason I’m compelled to write a review is because two seats away from us a man was having a medical emergency. I could see the staff were caring for him and his partner, making sure he was comfortable and relaxed while the ambulance arrived. They were so good at looking after him that I actually didn’t notice there was anything wrong for a few minutes. The team were calm, collected and professional. I hope the guy is ok.
I would recommend this place for the atmosphere alone, but do order the big breakfast and a nice big mug of tea. They also have books around so if you’re on your own you can just grab one and have a read while you recharge. This place is a local gem.
Absolutely excellent service friendly staff and amazing food Thankyou! Definately recommend the jacket with chilli and Red Leicester! 👌
Love, love, love this place. Lived in Birmingham years ago, but was back here for a wedding and just happened to pop in here, so glad we did. Atmosphere brilliant, decor fantastic, staff attentive, food excellent, everything was just so good. I'm back home now in northern Ireland and miss this place, especially the fact that the tea was made in a proper teapot with a cosy, the works. When I back in Birmingham, this is a must to visit and i will be back
A lovely place in the heart of Northfield.
A truly cosy atmosphere, with great service and well made, tasty and comforting food.
We’ve coming here since it opened, and its great to see it has become a staple on the high street, and quite importantly quality and service standards remain high as ever.
Worth coming over for egg and sausage sandwich alone.
Highly recommended.
Very nice place would go again Menu a little limited but food good maybe so seasonal changes on the menu 😉
