Pit Stop is a fairly standard "greasy spoon" cafe.

I also love anywhere that sells halloumi. They also have a range of fresh baked cakes that changes daily. There is loads of seating and I've never seen it get too busy. Fast, friendly service, inexpensive and very clean. A good spot for the morning after.

I had to dive to the toilet to dump them from my mouth into the sink. On returning I tossed my plate on to the counter. I explained it was the second time this had happened but the first pork bap was a take out. Christina both lied to me and accused me of crimes I hadn't committed. I have still to have my money returned for either meal but will be seeing her husband this evening to let them know their future.

I thought that i had written a review for Molly's before but cant see it so here goes…read more Molly's is a proper old fashioned type cafe serving all manner of cooked breakfasts, sandwiches, lunches etc. It has parking at the rear (although you can usually get parked somewhere on The Green) and has about 8 or 9 tables for 4 people. It gets extremely busy at lunchtimes - to be expected because of its quality reputation. The food is really good, well cooked and a fair price. The staff are incredibly happy and chatty and cant do enough to help. Oh and proper MUGS of tea. Win. They also do free delivery within 3 miles for orders of £8 which im guessing is quite popular with the local offices as im always seeing the Molly's vans round and about. Ive knocked one star off (i wish i could just take off half a star...) because their website is really quite rubbish. I wanted to link to it to show you the menu (as i was too busy scoffing my food and reading the paper to take loads of photos for you) but there are no menus, no photos nothing. Come on Mollys its 2014 - get someone to do you a good website!!!

I popped in here to grab a bite to eat one lunchtime with a friend. It is not the biggest place but…read moreI was ordering my food to take away anyway, so that did not bother me. I ordered a simple cheese sandwich and a coffee to take away. The staff were very friendly and chatty, which is always nice when you visit somewhere for food. My order did not take too long to prepare and I was soon out of there as quickly as I came in. My cheese sandwich was very tasty and my coffee was equally as good. As the service was so efficient and the staff so friendly, I would definitely return if I was in the area again. The prices were fairly cheap too. If you happen to be around the Kings Norton area I would encourage you to pop in too!

Upon entering, there was a bit of a dispute going on between the women working in the kitchen and a customer. I'm not too sure what was going on, I think the food was cold, but they didn't seem to care who heard them. I was instantly put off and pretended to get a phone call and made a sharp exit! I don't know if it's like this all the time but I won't be returning any time soon.

When is a greasy spoon cafe likely to be a good greasy spoon cafe? I'd wager that the location of…read moreThe Golden Coin is pretty much a textbook example. It's situated on a busy main road (check!), there's a pub nearby (check!), there is a plumbers merchant and heating supply shop used all-day, every-day by tradesmen (check) and there is an industrial estate yards away (check!) and, finally, the cafe opens very early and shuts up shop mid-afternoon (check). All of this ought to tell you that if the Golden Coin offered substandard food in stingy portions for high prices, it would have been found out long ago. The opposite is the case. This is a classic British cafe doing what classic British cafes do best: Hearty food, brilliant tea, and no messing about. If you are in the area (and it's before 2.30pm) you should grab a fry up here.

This is a great place for a greasy fry up! Oh yes, this place is amazing and I enjoy coming here at…read moreit is not too far from where I live, but it is slightly out of the student area, so I can come here for a bit of peace. I found this place as a friend recommended it to me and said that they do the best greasy breakfasts and so, nursing a hangover one morning, I decided that was just what I needed to sort myself out. It was fairly busy when I first went in as I think that everyone in the area knows just how good it is. I ordered a full English and a large cup of tea, which I had topped up as I soon drank it quickly; it was good and strong too, just how I like it. The breakfast was amazing, tasty and greasy and just full of flavour! It is amazing how a few fried foods can taste so good!
