A wonderful little cafe nestled away in Kings Heath. I came in and was greeted by very amicable and friendly staff. I ordered the sweet potato fritters and egg. This came and was one of the most delicious dishes I've had from an establishment.
The way the mint sauce paired with the fritters, which tasted like an artisan dish. It was subtle, not too strong, yet very unique. The egg was the perfect ingredient with the fritter sandwich which was held together by the buns. These buns weren't soft or soggy, instead they hard enough to keep the ingredients together, yet soft enough that I could chew it effectively.
I did say to the gentlemen at the front I would write a review.
We need more places like this that value passion and good customer service.
10/10

Cycle Workshop Review:
If you need anything doing on your bike, this is the place to go.
I went today as I had an issue with my front brake seizing. Stupidly I didn't check the opening times (closed on Wednesday) but the owner was sitting just inside. He spotted me and opened the door. Not only did he sort the brake in a matter of minutes, he gave me a free spacer for my brake pads free of charge... Imagine what they do when they're open!
This isn't the first time they've helped me out either. I was knocked off my bike by an inattentive driver a couple of years ago and took the bike in expecting to be charged quite a bit for repairs. They managed to untangle my chain which was wedged between the frame and the wheel, reset my handle bars and give it a once over to check it was safe to ride. Once again, they did this for free!
I have also paid for a full service which isn't the cheapest you'll find, but it's well worth the peace of mind knowing they're trustworthy and they'll do a thorough job.
Always recommend to my cycling friends, and I'll continue to do so!
Thanks Gorilla Café!

One of the top places to eat in Birmingham, let alone Kings Heath. The food is incredible, great menu selection and nice portion size, the coffee, cakes and vibe are also top. I am very well fed and not easy to pleased but this place get's 10/10 every time.

Great english breakfast in a sportive enviroment!

Lovely place, very sunny, great service. Only downside is the acoustics- very loud when it gets busy & the echo from people's voices ricochet off the walls. Otherwise obvious favourite bikers' hub! 🚲 🚵♂️

I really like this place! A cute little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating with a concise menu, and good value.
We sat outside and the interior fills quickly, the service was lovely and prompt food. I got the veggie breakfast which was filling and delicious. I would like some veggie sausage with my breakfast but they didn't have that on the menu.
Unfortunately I can't comment on the interior or atmosphere but the seating outside was fine.
The coffee was okay but nothing memorable. I will be returning to eat breakfast here again.

Was recommended to come here through a friend, we had been looking for a good cafe for ages. This is by far the best cafe we have been to in a long time. The service was amazing and the food was really really good. The owner was really friendly and informative and just a generally nice place to get some food. They also do deserts too which we had. 10/10. Also very queer friendly 🏳️🌈
