Good - Edit
Was surprised with the size of this as I expected it to be tiny. Whilst the menu is relatively small, the food was nice and enjoyed the atmosphere with good service too

Lots of different vegan food - hot snacks and cakes/desserts. Staff forgot my food until 15 minutes later when I asked at the desk, then brought the wrong thing out, but it was tasty despite not being what I ordered. :P

Huge selection of vegan food - Edit
They have a huge variety of food selections, from hot dogs to breakfast wraps to vegan cake. We had only 3 days in Birmingham and we went back there every day we were there to try something different. I really liked their ice cream and the warm toasts.
Read moreThe ambiance is nice
Ps. When the place gets busy during the prime hours, quality of service and the food decreases tremendously, which was a disappointment.
Also the toilets are for binary folks and only the female wc has the diaper change unit. Those kind of things gets me down especially in vegan cafes.
They also serve dairy milk if requested for some weird reason.
Pros: Lots of vegan options , Affordable
Cons: Serves dairy milk upon request , Prefer when the place is not crowded , Binary wc

Great cake, let down by customer service - Edit
Plenty of space, reasonably priced and delicious cakes. Only downside to my visit was they ignored me for the person behind me and forgot part of my order. Hopefully just a one off as I would like to come back.

Great place in the centre of town - Edit
Fantastic range of vegan sarnies, wraps and foodgasmic hotdogs. The cakes are lush and to die for and the staff are really enthusiastic and friendly. A must-do vegan eatery if you’re in Brum city centre.

Great find for vegan food - Edit
Visited on a friend’s recommendation but also some pretty solid happy cow reviews.
Read moreEverything was great here and not just from a ‘really grateful we can eat something vegan’ angle. Great choice of sandwiches, bagels, breakfast items, ice creams, cakes and drinks. Served by really friendly staff. Coffee was superb with choice of quite a few plant based milks. Sausage bagel really good. All round great experience, thank you!
Will recommend this place to everyone and will visit the jewellery qtr place later today.
Pros: Loads of vegan choices, Really great coffee and tasty food, Friendly, welcoming staff

Amazing vegan cakes - Edit
Visited this place on a Sunday afternoon, amazing selection of cakes, all vegan, and coffees/smoothies/milkshakes. The vegan hot dogs looked incredible and would love to try them next time. Cons- tables and toilets a bit grubby and slow service, maybe cause only 2 staff working. Overall- highly recommend.

Go for the coffee, stay for the cake - Edit
A decent cup of coffee but the stand out here is the desert selection. Cake is outstanding and generously sized portions. Ice cream is all vegan and delicious in the summer. Does offer sandwiches and hot dogs also.

Vegetarian Cafe - Edit
Comfortable cafe serving vegan food, coffee and snacks. Great coffee with a selection of plant milks. Toasties and panini's are good if a little pricey and good selection of sweet treats.

Amazing cafe - Edit
I love it here! They have so many cakes and food options, with plenty of gluten free options too. The only thing letting it down is that they serve cow milk - which was really frustrating as when I asked if everything was vegan they said it was ? Bit confusing. They also need to do something about the door as it’s really draughty and it doesn’t seem to close properly. Other than that, it’s an amazing place to come and study/catch up with friends, they have milkshakes, iced coffees, sandwiches, vegan hot dogs, cookies! So much choice.
Read morePros: Amazing vegan food, Friendly service, Gluten free options

Great, relaxed cafe - Edit
We went to 3 Threes for a quick lunch and both chose the hotdogs. Teenager also had a piece of Oreo Tiffin. It was a bit slow, but food was good and great value. Only thing that let the place down was the toilets, which could do with a thorough clean and update!

Vegan cake! Vegan toasties! - Edit
I popped in while I was changing trains at New Street, about 7 minutes brisk walk. Everything is vegan, though they have cow milk to add to drinks for the hopelessly addicted. Excellent range of cakes and ice creams, hot food, snacks and good coffee. I had a 'cheese and ham' toastie, excellent, and a cinnamon bun which was served warm. It's nicely done out in a high-street coffee shop style and the woman serving was friendly and helpful. Good prices, top marks.
