A new cafe has opened in Edgbaston as part of the popular Boston Tea Party chain; the 20th UK opening for the group.

French toast & happy vibes @ Home Is Where
I found Home Is Where by accident when I was recently visiting Hotel Du Vin. After my massage last week I clocked the cafe in all its white vintagy glory as I left, and decided to diary a visit to the cute looking eatery. I managed to find an hour spare recently so popped in … Continue reading French toast & happy vibes @ Home Is Where
Lovely lattes @ Java Lounge, Colmore Row
With the rain finally lifting (for 24 hours at least) and my need for caffeine overriding my desire to stay at home with the heating on, I decided to pop to town for a coffee hit.

Breakfast meetings and Urban revisited
It's been a funny old week, with absolutely loads going on at work and a busy week socially.

With … Continue reading Energy-boosting breakfast smoothie
Breakfast @ Hotel La Tour
Every year I buy myself a birthday present. A little treat to me, it's my way of rewarding myself for working hard and surviving another year of craziness in my world. Usually I tend to buy myself something a bit materialistic, like a new dress or a pair of shoes, but this year I decided … Continue reading Breakfast @ Hotel La Tour

Coffee and a blast from the past @ Yumm Cafe
Before I worked from home, I worked in a city centre office. Well, I say city centre, I mean Digbeth, and like many creative folk who work in this part of the city centre, my office is situated within the custard factory hub. I always really enjoyed working in this creative space, despite the fact … Continue reading Coffee and a blast from the past @ Yumm Cafe
