As said it's small so make sure you book, but be warned it could be a day before they back to you to confirm your booking! But this is just in fitting with the relaxed slightly quirky nature of the place. In terms of surroundings it reminds me a students bedroom with a slightly ethnic feel, and in fitting with this the toilets are freezing in winter! Food wise it's 'proper veggie', all cooked in front of you in the small kitchen in the same room as you eat. The meals are always plentiful, and have always left me happy. The service is always very Malcolm, who is the industrious owner/ chef who zips around the kitchen keeping the operation rolling. Whilst I've always felt the place could descend into chaos at any moment it's clearly all mapped out in Malcolm's head and the food always ends up in front of you. You take your own alcohol, and if you forget there is an off license in the same block of shops where cafe nomad is. If you like chain eateries, must have meat or things to be' just so', then this is not the place for you, but if that's not you then book yourself a table, grab some booze and I'm pretty sure you will have a great night!

The waitress was very friendly and introduced herself when we arrived giving a nice personal touch to the evening. The service was also very good with the food arriving in good time.

Occasionally it's been a wait when busy, but not always if you get your order in quick enough. It's definitely a cosy little place, but then again even when busy and kept waiting this place has a wonderful atmosphere and the conversation & time with dining guests has flown by, and before you know it, a lovely evening of good food, fine wine and interesting conversation has occurred... A special mention must go to the staff, both serving/waiting and cooking, as I've always been made to feel welcomed and appreciated - keep up the excellent work, you do amazing things! Highly recommended.

I got lost looking for the restaurant after my phone died but finally found my friend at the top of the steps leading down to Earth. Service is set up like a cafeteria, and for just £7 you can pick 4 items from the line (up to 2 "mains".) I think everything in the line and dessert counter is vegan - I was struggling to find dairy/egg items in the menu. I feel like it's more palatable for them to sell themselves as a vegetarian rather than vegan restaurant. I picked up a hearty bean chili atop quinoa, braised cabbage, and a beautiful mushroom pie, in addition to a lime/lemongrass bottled drink and coffee/walnut cake. Portion sizes were huge and you feel very healthy eating the food - the bean chili could have used more seasoning, but the savory mushroom pie was divine! Creamy, savory, and textural, I was surprised at how well they veganized this classic. The cabbage was like tame sauerkraut, which cut the richness of the pie well. The cake was mildly sweet but had a wonderful bitter aftertaste, the scent of ground coffee lingering in my palate long after I finished the last bite. I had a taste of my friend's raw blueberry cheesecake and we had quite a bit of fun trying to guess what they made it out of. It was alright - I would've wanted to try the raw tiramisu, if they had it.

Bistro 1847 opening in Birmingham was very warmly welcomed to the (very slowly growing)…read moreVegetarian/Vegan scene. After already having two successful restaurants in Manchester, I was very excited about visiting Bistro 1847 after hearing only good things about it. Set in the beautiful Great Western Arcade, I thought it was strange to open a restaurant here. Especially after 6pm it is the only place open usually! But the atmosphere of the restaurant complements the peacefulness of the arcade. The interior of the Bistro is minimalistic and modern. Being someone who is allergic to Dairy and Wheat intolerant (I know!), Bistro 1847 is one of few places I don't feel weird at. The whole menu is Vegetarian, with dishes that can be adjusted to vegan or gluten free or both in my view. My and my friend were feeling fat so we both went for three courses. I had the curried Swede Cauliflower, Cashew nut butter and cinnamon cornflakes. So many flavours going on in a small parcel was a great choice. For the main I had "Oh I do like to be beside the seaside" (all dishes have these quirky little names!) which is a modern Veggie twist on fish and chips in case you hadn't guessed! I had the vegan version which had two huge pieces of smoked tofu which I really struggled to finish along with the chunky chips! I wasn't defeated and enjoyed all parts of the meal. For desert I had the "Good ol fashioned lover boy" I enjoyed it although I thought maybe the chocolate was a bit over powering as was so much going on. But the jelly was a nice compliment to the richness. The menu contains a large selection of cocktails and deserts for sharing if you and your friends are in search of lots of sweetness. This was my third visit on a Sunday since opening and has been progressively busier each time which is great to see. Bistro 1847 is a very relaxing experience and ideal place for a date or a catch up with a friend. And of course the food is amazing!

Oo-ee this is indeed a very classy vegetarian restaurant…read more The decor is modern, simple and stylish - shades of white and grey, nice white table linen, with a few tables downstairs, and more upstairs on the mezzanine level. There's a large window looking on to the arcade, which is great for watching people come and go. The food was fantastic. It's a fixed price menu, at £19 for two courses, and £25 for three. There's also a pricier tasting menu - the couple sitting next to me had chosen that option, and were really enjoying it. To start, I had the puy lentils, with roasted carrot, spring onions and garlic tofu. The tofu was done as a silky sauce - I'd never had tofu prepared in that way, and I thought it was really delicious. For main course, I chose the bell pepper ragu, with polenta. Again this was superb, with the polenta served as crisp little triangles on top. Both my courses were gluten free, as well as vegan, and their menu is very clear to understand. It feels like the sort of place you can completely trust to get things right. Service was quick and friendly, and there was a nice atmosphere, with other diners just quietly enjoying their meals just as much as I was. I'll definitely be back here next time in Birmingham, and I'll look out for their restaurants in other cities too.

It's a quaint family eatery with simplistic and clean decor, and polite yet reserved staff. There is some parking outside although side-street parking is plentiful.

I often order a variety of snacks to eat a tapas-style meal, which gives you the opportunity to try out numerous dishes with a rich blend of flavours. But favourites are the chilli paneer and spicy mogo chips! Don't be put off if you're a keen meat-eater - so am I! But Jyoti's is testament to how varied and delicious vegetarian food can be.
