British café in Birmingham

“Fantastic little cafe, really friendly staff, when I came in with a weird request they did it and even suggested additional things to make it a 10/10 meal. Cant recommend enough”

“Top mark's for being open, after most other good coffee shops had closed. A notable mention also, for taking Amex, when many places do not (not judging, I get it, but, nice for me that Elio do). Burnt Basque Cheesecake, if you please. That's cool. Atmosphere is light, bright, and airy (and a bit noisy, like most big spaces are). And the coffee? Expertly poured, for sure. Good stuff. Edit: OMG, I've just devoured the cheesecake .... absolutely superb.”

“This cafe is a wonderful spot to start the day. The staff are always polite and welcoming, creating a warm atmosphere that makes you feel at ease right away. The food is fresh, tasty, and served promptly—perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast before work. Highly recommend if you’re looking for good food and friendly service to kick off your morning.”

“lovely café, nice atmosphere, rich sandwiched, quick and fresh. really nice café. the garden centre is very much for gardeners lots of beautiful plants, not so much variety in gift shop...”

“I regularly visit this café, and I must say, it’s a hidden gem! The breakfasts are superb—flavorful and satisfying. The staff are not only polite and friendly but also incredibly efficient. Your orders are taken and delivered with a smile, and the speed of service ensures you won't be kept waiting long. The recent remodelling has transformed the cafe into a fresh, open space that feels both modern and welcoming. The addition of decking out front is perfect for those finer weather days, offering a lovely spot to relax and enjoy your meal outdoors. Prices are very reasonable, offering great value for the quality of food and service you receive. As an added bonus, there's a car valeting service right next door, making it convenient to get your car cleaned while you dine. (Which is why I visit regularly) In summary, I highly recommend this cafe for a visit. Whether you're a local or just passing through, it's a place that promises a wonderful traditional breakfast experience, especially if you're in the mood for a 'full english' or a tasty sandwich.”

“First time visit very enjoyable sandwich will call in again when next in in the area.”

“Quick, friendly service. Food and drink are good value. Clean and bright, good location (in Library) It gets very busy in the evening. Will go again.”

“Popped in here for a bite to eat for lunch as I was in the area. First time I've eaten here and didn't know what to expect. The coronation chicken salad was good. I really enjoyed the coronation sauce. My friend had the pulled pork wrap and he said it was tasty and liked the mustard on it. The strawberry milkshake was delicious. A good quality milkshake. This place appears to be a busy deli shop for the local businesses. The prices are reasonable and the service is fast. Good selection of food to choose from. You can either do takeaway or they have limited seating inside and more seating outside on a quiet street.”

“Lovely little cafe, absolutely love the breakfasts here! Ive eaten here many times and the breakfast are always top notch. Service is always great. I imagine the ppl that write poor reviews must be just unhappy with their lives. You will struggle to find a better breakfast!”

“Lovely visiting Hagley Cafe again - it's not the cheapest place but the food was delicious and they cater really well for gluten free! Owner was very pleasant as always and the new décor is minimalist and modern. We will definitely be back!”

“Lovely little place with delicious breakfast. Owners seem to know the locals which is always nice. A hidden gem in Kings Heath and certainly makes the freshes breakfast around. Look forward to trying their lunches when I next pop in!”

“Thank You Both For a Nice Sandwich and Keep Up Your Good Work For The Service You Give To The NHS Workers”

“Great food. It's like a scene from only fools and horses, in a good way.”

“I enjoyed my breakfast sandwich, I had a toasted BSE sandwich. Very tasty and quick delivery.”
