morridge oats + coffee

Just wow!!! The atmosphere and decor were unmatched. The upstairs seating area offered a hammock swing and cosy sofas. They brought the food and drinks right to you and were very transparent about waiting times, and oh boy it was worth the short wait. The coffee was great but the sandwich was exceptionally scrumptious but what took the biscuit (literally) was the white chocolate cookie sent from heaven, I often crave the cookie still and am due a visit soon.

This place was such a find on our recent visit to Birmingham. For starters, it's at the entrance of an absolutely stunning Grade II listed Victorian arcade - so much kerb appeal! Inside it's all retro vibes, it took me back to my childhood living room. The retro styling isn't in just the decor, it's in all the serving ware too - the attention to detail is second to none. Service is absolutely wonderful - staff are really keen to help. The food is definitely 2025 - we had the sandwiches and seriously, they were the best I've ever had (and I've had a lot of sandwiches in my time!) My friend who is Australian and a self confessed coffee snob said it was the best coffee she'd had on her visit to the UK! This place is for people who like great coffee, relaxed vibes, fab service and wonderfully fresh food. Highly recommend!

I had a fantastic experience at this cafe! The food was delicious, with fresh and flavorful options that cater to a variety of tastes. The service was outstanding – friendly, attentive, and quick to make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was cosy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax, study and enjoy good company. And the drinks? I had a flat white and great. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a delightful cafe experience!"

We have been here twice now and we love it! This time round we tried the soup and it was so delicious. The little touches and garnishes aren’t there for show, rounding out the soup or porridge as a whole dish in my opinion, that’s what makes this place great! There is a lovely atmosphere, constant vintage vibe that is really relaxing, comfortable and pleasant to be in. The staff are friendly and there is now loads of options, sweet and savoury, oats or not! It’s a little difficult with the full food menu only being displayed downstairs, but it makes the place feel cute and cosy and I really can’t complain. I have loved this place since it opened and only wish I could get into Bham more often of a morning to become a regular. Not to mention the coffee was brilliant too.

Beautiful decor, comfy chairs and most importantly delicious and creative porridge options. Super vegan friendly - in fact the best vegan hot chocolate I’ve ever had !! Staff super lovely and welcoming.
