Vegan hero pancakes were awesome!! They had vegan cookies and milkshakes which look delicious but I couldn't manage to eat after the pancakes.

We came here to have pancakes, they were delicious. The service from the two men was excellent so kind and helpful. I have a 4 month old baby and they were so helpful with filling my babies bottle up with water and sterilising my baby’s teething things for me. Me and my mum loved it here! Relaxed and quirky place! Would highly recommend! Thank you for having us!!

Cherry Reds is a hidden gem! Lovely traditional Cafe Bar with nice decor and a cosy atmosphere. Menu selection is extensive and includes a wide variety of vegan/vegetarian options alongside traditional English food and drinks. The Diddy Breakfast was excellent quality and tasted delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. An added bonus is the selection of cask and keg ales available. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Birmingham!

Very good good cafe/bar a couple of minutes walk from Birmingham New Street Station. Three cask beers on handpump when I visited including a red ale. Lots of outdoor seating. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Food was delicious! Partner hard hearty English and I had the Benedict bagel, was lovely. Table was a little small for two people but overall would I go again? Yes!

They pour the beer without sparklers here and the Pale Brummie turns out to be the best pint of the day. Great service and a worthy entry in the Good Beer Guide. The food offer looks irresistible and I’ll have to return soon to sample it.
