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 π³οΈβπ
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 CafΓ©!
You can see many decorations, posters and material in relation of cycling here. I'm not a cyclist but I enjoyed the vibes here and of course the coffee and meals here are both great ππ½
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.
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! π² π΅ββοΈ
Great english breakfast in a sportive enviroment!
Recently had brunch here and the food was amazing. Really interesting and varied menu, including some great veggie options. The coffees and harissa scrambled eggs were perfect!
What a place, what a people. I remember when π¦ first opened and I thought to myself 'Is Brum ready for a Cycle Cafe' the answer? An emphatic YES. The cafe is great, the people are wonderful but here's a particular shout out to the lads in the workshop (yes they have a bike workshop hidden away upstairs). I had a complicated job I needed done and it requires both skill, diligence and focus. Boy did they deliver! So so grateful. A truly great place!
Top bike service by experts. Really helpful and bike 110% better. Super friendly and approachable many thanks
First time we'd been here... Its been open for years and we are local.. We are now asking myself.. 'Why did we leave it so long!!!'. What a lovely place. The staff were friendly and attentive.
Very clean, very busy, lovely atmosphere, all age ranges were in there and fantastic food. The coffees and food we had were soooo nice.
Thank you... looking forward to returning... quite a few times....
What a lovely place to take time out in. Gorgeous cappuccino earlier.
After a number of years I came back to the Gorilla coffee cafe and the food was as good as I'd remembered. I came in last week with a friend and came back on my own today and I had the same gorilla breakfast which was awesome, even down to the mushroom which was very tasty. The meat loaf bacon wrap thing was fantastic, never had this before. I had a hot chocolate last week and it was better than any of the place I've been too. Staff were very friendly, attentive, polite and helpful. Thank you from my friend and myself. We will be back.
This is Bedder's Fish and Chips, Mad O' Rouke's Pie and Mash, Duran Duran, Ozzy and Toni are just some of the great Midlands collaborations. Well, throw in cycles and coffee at Gorilla Coffee Cafe! This brummie institution is a beautiful, bright spacious cafe that is finely tuned for the the road cyclist. If it's the start of your cycling adventure or you've got a thirst on after a heavy day in the saddle, get over here. The staff are lovely, the coffee is great, they even serve local ales. Just find a pew amongst the abundance of seats and rest your weary lycra.
Lovely little spot off the high street with outdoor seating, very friendly staff, perfect coffee and nice food. will definitely be back
Cafe has an excellent attached bike workshop that will sort out any issues you have, you can book in by ringing up the cafe.
Had the gorilla breakfast.. Was huge plate of food! 2 slices of bacon, 2 sausages, 2 eggs, fresh tomato, baked beans in a ramikan, spinach and mushrooms. DELICIOUS π! Great coffee. All served with a smile, in a clean cafe, which has a (road?) racing bike fixed on the wall. There is a quotation by Eddie Mercx, painted on the wall. Rack to park your bike.... And you can sit outside. Highly recommended. January 2023...it's just as it is described above. I had the gorilla breakfast again and it was DELICIOUS π. May 2023. Just as good last time!
