Known for its mouthwatering kebab boxes, homemade cakes, and decadent breakfast options, patrons rave about the generous portions and rapid service. While prices may be a touch on the higher side for students, the quality of food—including renowned bacon sandwiches and flapjacks—makes it well worth it.

Family-run caffe that has been operating the caffe for over 25 years. serves the best coffee in selly oak. eat mainly pfann cake and lamb with rice is pointed notch and always the best comfort food around. service is always impeccable and they are treated like family, rather than just guests. hein is absolutely wonderful and takes the effort to remember the regular orders of the customers and makes a middle cuppa to drive my coffee addiction. 5 cafe

I am a food lover and have visited cafe face since the 90s. eating is amazing and always freshly prepared! the new rustic decor complements the ambiente and complements the new menu that provides both vegan and carne lovers. the staff is always friendly and helpful. my current clip from the menu is the chicken battle and Persian kofta lamb sluice with fries and a bed salat enclosed in a delicious gyros brot. They serve amazing coffee, mochas, selection of tees and hot chocolate! They also serve halal food!

The service at this restaurant is excellent, with a wonderful atmosphere and amazing food! I highly recommend trying the kebab boxes, as well as the delicious homemade cakes and biscuits. This has become my go-to spot for breakfast and lunch!

As the title suggests this is a no frills cafe that serves top notch fry ups. The absolute plus here is the coffee though that outshines anything these chain coffee shops have to offer so if you fancy a brew get down there.
