The Quest for Britains Best Breakfast
OK, so its not exactly Birmingham, however, when I eat a breakfast thats this good, I feel duty bound to report back on it. Its a lovely B and B run by Mark and Simon. They really care. Mark was mainly front of house and Simon was in the kitchen. […]
I was in a real hurry to meet someone and saw this place and thought I would give it a go. I didnt have time for a proper full English, so opted for a small one. This consisted of a perfectly fried egg, single sausage, single bacon a ramekin of […]
I have no idea why I ended up at 2 different venues for breakfast in the same area, but sometimes, thats how it goes. I was driving around, looking for somewhere to eat and the only cafe I found was Goodfilllers, (which I ate at last week), then this one. […]
You get over the fact that the signage is well and truly past its best. This place is run by Jane. It is very rare that you meet anyone that has been running a cafe for 15 years. With Jane, you will. She was amazing. By the time we left, […]

Old Dresser Cafe is a lovely independent venue in Bearwood not far off Hagley Road. Styled with quaint furniture and trinkets that wouldn’t look out of place in your favourite grandmas house. Rich and Rob run the business as if they were welcoming you into their homes and service sets […]
I have been asked a few times by the Wellington Hotel to try out their breakfast. After a rather enjoyable evening, the night before, a Full English was exactly what I needed. Its an unusual place. A handsome building, stood proudly on the corner of Birmingham’s Gay District, on the […]
Just under Snow Hill Station, in the arches, is the Indian Brewery on Livery Street. Normally, I would go for a full English breakfast. Here however, as well as a brewery, the team provide food including a vegetarian breakfast, (see below): They also do a Full Indian Breakfast, their take […]
The weather was awful today, so instead of going for a 30 mile bike ride, I went for a Full English breakfast instead. The Red Lion is a pub in a village near Tamworth, set right on the Fazeley canal, (so its fantastic for drinking outside in the summer). […]
