I’d been meaning to revisit Quarter Horse Coffee for a while, having repeatedly come across its roasts at various cafes across Brum, including Kanteen. The cafe itself, located on Bristol Street, is a light and airy space with wooden furniture and white washed walls. Decoration is kept to a minimum but the place feels inviting […]
I remember the first time I stumbled upon Medicine Bakery & Gallery. I use that turn of phrase literally; I tripped up outside the place on my way to the museum. Hidden away on New Street, up a steep flight of stairs, you would be forgiven for walking straight past this cool little offering. Forgiven […]
This week Cafe 1368 officially opened in Digbeth, as a revamped version of the cafe that was previously sat next door to The Old Crown. Offering up breakfast, brunch, lunch and all the other meals that occur before mid afternoon, this new incarnation of the cafe space is a lovely new addition to the Digbeth […]
There is something rather wonderful happening at Laghi’s Deli, a family run restaurant that popped up opposite Park Regis Hotel last year. Despite being situated about one red wine stumble away from Five Ways roundabout, Laghi’s Deli is a pretty addition to Brum’s food scene that has been quietly making a name for itself over the […]
I’ve had mixed experiences dining at Gusto, I have to admit. Thankfully my visit last month for brunch was a really positive affair and has reaffirmed my fondness for the place. Having launched a weekend brunch menu, the popular Colmore Row restaurant is having a busy few months. As well as Birmingham Wine Weekend in […]
If there’s one thing in life I love, it’s a weekend getaway with great friends and good food. With one of my close girlfriends due to bring a ‘mini me’ into the world come the summer, it seemed only right to whisk her away for an overnight pampering treat. After researching into West Midlands-based rural […]
It’s gained quite a reputation in Worcester, so it makes me happy that the second Wayland’s Yard to open up is in sunny Birmingham. Promising ‘proper coffee and proper food’, Wayland’s Yard can be found on Bull Street, just off Colmore Row. Its focus is brunch and lunch making it a daytime destination, ideal for […]
I’ve always had a soft spot for Lost and Found and this new-look version is top banana. Lost and Found on Bennetts Hill officially reopens Friday March 2nd, but last week some friends and I checked out the newly renovated bar to try the updated bottomless brunch. It’s a hard life.. no really it is, […]
There’s a new independent cafe at The Custard Factory and it’s fantastic. All hail Seven Sins Lounge. Found in the same spot once occupied by Crank Cafe, Seven Sins Lounge is a new arrival for 2018 and is serving up coffee, cocktails and bucket loads of sass. If you’re looking for a place to take […]
I first discovered the breakfast joys of Kanteen at The Custard Factory Digbeth in September last year. Since my first visit I’ve been back around 174805 times for food, coffee and co-working mornings. It’s an ideal brunch and breakfast spot in Digbeth if you’re looking for a relaxed environment to work or socialise, with plenty […]
Being honest, I don’t really post much about the world outside of Birmingham (this blog is called Bite Your Brum after all) but I’ve just had such a mega weekend in Krakow that I wanted to share a bit about the foodie side of the trip. Being that so many of you gave me must […]
Digbeth is a part of Birmingham that people seem to either love or hate. Over the years I’ve worked in and around the area so have come to know and love a few local spots for food. Below you will find some of my favourite places in Digbeth to grab a bite to eat, all […]
Last week, after a fairly eventful online transaction with Jessops, I finally got my hands on my new camera. On the advice of some friends I bought a Sony A5000 with the view that I could finally take some decent photos, most notably of edible things. Having set up my new piece of tech I […]
Sundays are the best. The Husband and I usually spend ours eating and abusing our Cineworld Unlimited cards; last Sunday was no exception. Before making the trek over to the cinema (located somewhere between Broad Street and Mars) we decided to ditch our usual go-to spots and grab brunch at The Alchemist on Colmore Row. […]
