    Was in the mood for something sweet and had that kind of craving that normal chocolates and candy…read morecan't fulfill. That's when we passed by this place and decided to check it out. Upon entry the types of smells my nose picked up definitely had my taste buds excited so I had to give it a shot. Now there are a few different types of waffles you can try and to add to the mixture you have a variety of toppings, sauces and ice cream to go with. I was in heaven. Being a complete craze for white chocolate I had to go with that for a sauce and paired it with coconut chocolate ice cream. What a match that was, every spoonful was amazing. I feel like if I lived in the UK I would be here very night, probably have to start my own waffles anonymous club if ya know what I mean.

    This was my first visit to the waffle project. The store is in a understated part of town. This is…read moremade up for with a bold Instagram friendly neon sign. They also seem to run the neighbouring seesha lounge. They serve American and Belgian style waffles and also crepes. Cheesecakes and various other cakes are available also. Once you've decided your waffle type or crepe you can choose one ice scoop of ice cream, one topping and one sauce. They have a great variety of sauces and toppings. The sauces in particular are quite varied including peanut butter and salted caramel. Extra toppings and sauces cost more but generally you will spend about the five pounds mark.

    It is not very often I am pushed to write a bad review, but this place was awful and I really was…read moreNOT impressed! They brought wrong orders to both my friend and myself, argued that we had ordered wrong and it wasn't them. Therefore we were then expected to pay extra for their till staffs mistakes! They think waffle pattern wafers are waffles! The only polite member of staff was the busboy Conner. I did enjoy the fruit smoothie drink I had, but that was the only redeeming thing. They also only have one toilet in the whole place, which was dirty and didn't have any toilet paper!! All in all a bad experience to never be repeated. I found them to be a very poor imitation of Sprinkles in London. I don't recommend the place at all and was left sorely disappointed after expecting better. An update I have been back twice since my first visit, not by choice of my own. But thought I would add notes about those experiences also. Sadly nothing much has improved from my first visit, the second time we were seated downstairs - it was dirty and smelly. My third and final visit, we ended up queueing outside, people were pushing in and when we did get inside on a very cold day mid winter the staff turfed everyone out again - once finally seated the atmosphere and volume was horrendously loud, people screaming and shouting across the shop. And now that customers are made to queue at the counter to order and pay, there are two lots of queues in an already very narrow cramped shop, which meant that people were knocking into us as we sat waiting for our drinks. Even after we moved across the booth to be further away we had people knocking the table and some cheeky individuals taking a seat or putting their belongings down on our seats or the table!! NEVER again will I visit this vile establishment, hygiene seemed to have got worse staff don't care and the noise level is intolerable. With the volume of people passing through their doors - mainly children teens and young adults, I'm surprised the business hasn't been shut down by safety health and hygiene inspections.

    I. Love. Crepes. Forget the doorstop American pancakes give me these thin delicacies any day…read more I much prefer the sweet variety and I'm a bit of a traditionalist with my lemon and sugar but the point here is you have some many to choose from! I think they could put some more filling on in some cases though. You pay a little bit extra if you want to eat in which is normal nowadays to be honest. The lady that served me was very friendly and struck up a conversation while she made our order. Considering she was new she was very calm whereas some of the other staff members looked a little bit stressed out. I wouldn't blame them it does not look easy. There is only one other place that I know of selling crepes in Birmingham and it's a bit of a walk so it's nice to have somewhere I can indulge on my love affair with crepes.

    I visited here for the first time today and I was pleasantly surprised. I've always been a huge fan…read moreof sweet crepes (particularly when there are large quantities of Nutella involved), but today I decided to go for the savoury option of pesto, basil and mozzarella. It took at little bit of time to receive my order, but it was beautifully made, served at a suitable temperature (when I've eaten them at other places before they've often been too hot to eat) and was a lovely option for lunch. My friends had the ham and cheese option and a strawberries and cream option, and they were equally as lovely! I'm certainly looking forward to revisiting!
