I would like to share my feedback about our recent visit to The Medicine Bakery on Saturday 8/11/25. Following the social media exposure I hope you appreciate that we were thoroughly looking forward to our visit. I booked through your website , which referred me to OpenTable. Our booking was 4pm - 5.30pm according to my email confirmation. We arrived at 4pm to be told the kitchen closes at 4pm. Disappointed but they said we could still order food. We had to make a rushed decision. We both ordered salad bowls, which were lovely but unfortunately the brown rice was very hard and we both couldn’t eat it. Brown rice has to be cooked a lot longer than white rice. We also ordered drinks. As we are enjoying our meals we notice the music stops, chairs are being stacked on tables and the floor is being mopped, whilst we’re still eating. No one gave us the heads up that they were closing until it became quite obvious so we asked for take away boxes. We mentioned to our server, who was brilliant I must add, that the rice was undercooked. He told a lady with green hair our feedback which we were not making an issue. Her reaction was quite aggressive as she stated “that rice is not undercooked!!” Her tone was not very friendly, albeit she was not speaking directly to us. The young chap removed the drinks from our bill as goodwill for the rice which was a lovely surprise that was appreciated. Still no one has addressed that our visit was cut short. We drove to codsall especially for this lunch, as we are mums who meet up monthly for a meal. Unfortunately visiting the medicine bar makes us feel that we haven’t experienced our outing this month as it was cut short. More importantly we didn’t get the opportunity to try the yummy cakes and pastries. My advice is to liaise with open table to make sure the booking times and slots are correct and please have staff communicate that they are closing. I appreciate they wanted to get home but we had a booking until 5.30pm. Sara is useless. You can just about get a reply. Took over a week for a lack lustre response. She sent £10 voucher We would like to send you a voucher to reuse for your next monthly meeting” £10 wouldn’t even cover a drink! Let alone cover my petrol to and from Codsall. I am somewhat offended by this and have decided that we won’t be returning to Medicine Bakery ever again based on its lack of customer service and lack of customer relations. I will be sharing feedback with others about this overall experience! Lesson learnt; virality of an establishment does not guarantee a good time or good service.

We popped in Thursday 11th September after seeing a video on TikTok and it did not disappoint. We got there around 12pm, right in the middle of the rush, but it didn’t affect the service at all. The staff were all smiles, really friendly, and our food came out quicker than expected considering how busy it was. The place had such a nice atmosphere lots of people chatting, laughing and just enjoying themselves. We also grabbed a few bits to take home for the family. We’ll definitely be back.

The food here is really tasty with a wide range of options on their menu. I had the Medicine brunch, which had a different take on a full English. The hash brown was flavoured with spice and the tomato sauce was nice. Greens on the side was a nice addition. Definitely book a table before coming here, it was packed when we arrived. It was loud inside, I was having to raise my voice to speak. It's very pricey here, be prepared to pay London prices despite being a few hundred miles away from it.

Would rate 0 if I could. I paid £5—yes, FIVE POUNDS—for what was supposedly a berry cheesecake donut, and I genuinely cannot believe the audacity. For that price, I expected something indulgent, rich, and absolutely stuffed with flavour. What I got instead was a dry, mediocre disappointment that tasted like it had been sitting out for hours, maybe even days. Not only was there no berry tang or any actual cheesecake essence, but here’s the real kicker: there was no filling. None. Zilch. Not a drop of berry compote, not a hint of creamy cheesecake centre—just an overpriced, underwhelming lump of dough masquerading as something special with a bit of icing on top. For £5, I could’ve bought an entire pack of fresh, quality donuts from a supermarket and still had change left for an actual dessert. But instead, I got scammed by what’s essentially a glorified bread roll. If you’re going to charge that much, at least put something inside it. This wasn’t a treat—it was daylight robbery. Save your money, your tastebuds, and your dignity. Avoid at all costs.

I have brought takeout foods and had To good to go orders. Always a nice selection. Absolutely love the Rueben sandwich. Fruit flapjack is delicious. I’m not a big donut fan but they always look great. Always very busy whenever I have been. Highly recommend.

Went for Brunch today and found this great place. In the middle of Codsall and plenty of parking spaces. On arrival we were welcomed with a speedy service and allowed us to choose our seating. The menu was far from the normal bacon and eggs, and had a various selection that should suit many tastes. There was a great selection of cakes and buns together with the bread makes it an excellent place for buying goods for home.

Medicine Kitchen and Bakery is a place with a really nice vibe. Was very busy on a Tuesday lunchtime with the seating full outside as well. Chicken and waffles were amazing but would have liked a larger portion. The food is very tasty, fresh and the staff are very friendly and efficient.

Went for breakfast yesterday. Had never booked but luckily got a place. Service was good. The food was amazing- presented well and tasted even better. Just realized they sell sourdough bread too so bought some and it is perfect. 100% recommended and would have to come again to try different things on the menu ❤️
