Here you can stop off and grab a quick hot sandwich or a full meal for a very good price, cooked fresh as you order it and absolutely the very best hangover cure ever! I love the bacon and sausage sandwiches (sometimes topped with a nice fried egg), the food is never overly greasy and never swimming in oil like some other cafes in the area. It's usually the same guy serving and he's great, it goes from empty to packed to the rafters and back to empty again almost in an instant so he must never get a rest while the cafe is open! I'm always impressed that he knows exactly what my daughter wants every time she goes in even though it's not very often she visits with me - it's scrambled eggs on toast every time for her here, she loves them because they are so buttery and creamy. I usually visit with my three daughters and we'll all have a sandwich (apart from the baby who has toast) and this costs under £10 including a drink each, which I'm sure you'll agree is a very good price for a lovely filling sarnie in this cold weather. The interior isn't that of a Michelin starred restaurant of course, it's formica and plastic all the way in The Teapot but I don't care about this because at the end of the day it's a cafe for a quick snack and not the sort of place I'd bring the love of my life for a special meal!

The decoration here is excellent, mismatched furniture gives a really cozy and friendly feel to the restaurant area and a great selection of light background music creates and laid back feel...perfect for Sunday! I decided to have the scrambled eggs and smoked salmon. The eggs and salmon were excellent but were sadly let down by sliced white bread with no option to change to brown or granary when ordering. My friends sausage and onion sandwich looked excellent....the food envy was very real. Overall good, just sadly not excellent.

I'd been meaning to pop into Home Café Deli for a while now and today was the day. I must say, I'm…read moreimpressed with what I found. I came in here for lunch and made the mistake of not grabbing a table and looking at the menu before ordering so I was faced with the blackboard over the serving counter which is chock-full of all-day breakfast options, sandwiches and salads. In a slight panic and a bit overwhelmed, I decided on a "croque monsieur (or as we Brummies know it - ham & cheese toastie)" - that is actually what it's called! Although I just said 'croque monsieur' myself. Oh and I ordered an americano too. It all came to under £5 so that in itself was a pleasant surprise. My order taken, I was told to take a seat and the food would be right over. I took that opportunity to visit the toilet, which was clean if a little basic and unisex, not that I have a problem with that. That taken care of, I didn't have to wait long for my drink to arrive and my food followed shortly after - it looked delicious! I took a quick snap for Yelp but I couldn't wait to dig in. I wasn't disappointed either - the cheese was nicely melted and the ham tasted like it was good quality. I appreciated the choice of white or brown bread too as I'm a big fan of brown bread. My americano was also tasty - not bitter and nice and strong, just like it should be. I would definitely come back here for coffee. As I'm sitting here working and Yelp!ing, the smell wafting over is divine - this may be the only down side as I'm getting hungry again! To top it all off, there's free wifi and power points, the atmosphere is homely and the decor is eclectic. In short, I love it. [EDIT] Unfortunately I've had to remove a star from my review because the Wi-Fi wasn't suitable for Skype meetings. It was servicable for other, less intensive work but stear clear otherwise!

On offer were your normal hot and cold drink selections, alongside what looked like homemade cakes. As we went in on a Tuesday afternoon, we were able to get a table so we sat down and enjoyed a slice of chocolate cake and a couple of hot chocolates. It was a pleasent experience and a great stop off point before getting a train.

As the name suggests, this eatery is small and friendly and on top of that serves up some great quality grub! You can get yourself a delicious handmade sandwich or opt for the more traditional option of a good old fry up. Obviously being a small business, seating is at a premium so it can be difficult to eat in on a busy day, but if that's the case then simply grab a sandwich to take away and eat in the fresh air, although on a typical Birmingham day this can present its own problems due to our less than favourable weather most of the year round.
