Posted on July 25, 2020August 3, 2020 by Laura

Quick read post today for those looking to take up the Government’s Eat Out To Help Out scheme in Birmingham. I had quite a few questions about this over on Instagram this week so hoping the following is helpful. The Government website has a page dedicated to how the Eat Out To Help Out scheme…

Review | Dishoom Birmingham, City Centre

Posted on July 20, 2020September 4, 2020 by Laura

I feel a bit conflicted that my first real review in months is the newly-open Dishoom rather than an established Brummie favourite, but I’m aware it’ll be one lots of you are interested in. If you’re reading this from the future, 2020 has (thus far) been a bit of a bin fire. I’m not going…

How to support your independent restaurants, cafes and bars after lockdown

Posted on July 1, 2020July 8, 2020 by Laura

I’ve not written a blog post since March. It didn’t feel right, relevant or particularly useful to anyone, including myself. So hello, welcome back (sort of) and I hope those of you reading this are healthy and doing ok. It’s been a wild ride, hasn’t it? I’m not going to write a barrage of trite…

Best places for vegan food in Birmingham (picked by actual vegans)

Posted on March 14, 2020March 14, 2020 by Laura

I’m increasingly asked about vegan food in Birmingham, but it may have come to your attention that I, Laura McEwan, am not a vegan. I’m pretty far from being a vegan because 75% of my diet is cheese and I keep the city’s burger joints in business. But I like veggie food and I often…

Review | Dropshot, Digbeth

Posted on March 10, 2020March 12, 2020 by Laura

In the last 12 months Digbeth has seen more openings than an orgy. And that’s a good thing really. I talk about Digbeth on here a lot and I have a lot of love for many of the places to eat and drink around this neck of the woods. Digbeth Dining Club is arguably the…

‘Birmingham’s smallest coffee shop’ opens in The Oasis markets

Posted on February 21, 2020March 5, 2020 by Laura

Birmingham’s ‘smallest coffee shop’ has opened in (everyone’s favourite emo dungeon) The Oasis markets. The Coffee Bar is located on the top floor (which weirdly is actually street level) of the markets, and is an independent start up. Head past the Nirvana tshirts and suspicious looking pipes and you’ll find the bar at the back….

Review | The Edwardian Tearooms, Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery

Posted on February 15, 2020February 15, 2020 by Laura

There’s a lot to like about The Edwardian Tearooms at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. Most notably the button that summons the champagne fairy. Often overlooked, this cafe is mainly used by museum visitors but there’s plenty to draw non-visitors to the beautiful space hidden beyond the gift shop and all its loot. Located on…

Solihull welcomes new cafe Vita to Mell Square

Posted on February 11, 2020February 12, 2020 by Laura

Solihull has welcomed a new cafe called Vita to Mell Square. Taking over the space once occupied by Costa, Vita is a proving a welcome independent addition to an area that is often accused of being chain-heavy. Serving coffee, cake and desserts, this place will even pour you a fizz if your heart desires. All…

Review | Sakura, Asia Asia Food Hall

Posted on February 7, 2020February 12, 2020 by Laura

I only found out about Sakura in Asia Asia Food Hall by chance. I say chance, I guess it was more my Twitter overuse, really. While Twitter can occasionally be a playgroup for pricks, it’s also a useful place sometimes. On my timeline at least, I often see people I follow chatting about food and…

Had a manic day and would like to go to the pub to chill out but am so tired from not sleeping due to unnecessarily overthinking today’s manic day (that was lovely/fine) in advance I’m going to bed with biscuits instead.

Imagine how brilliant it’s going to be to have dinner and then see a show. Just realised I’ve not done that since Christmas... 2019 😭
