"One of the best English breakfasts I had in Birmingham. The Full English was excellent: good quality sausages, crispy bacon, perfectly cooked eggs and generous portions at a very fair price. Everything tasted fresh and properly homemade. What really made the experience even better was the staff. Everyone was extremely friendly, professional and welcoming even during busy hours, which is something you don’t always find in city centre places. The location is also perfect, literally right next to Birmingham New Street Station, making it an ideal spot for breakfast before catching a train or starting the day in the city centre. If you’re looking for a proper English breakfast in Birmingham with great service, affordable prices and a super central location, Grand Central Kitchen is definitely worth visiting"

"Solid place for breakfast! It’s a bit squished in there but it adds to the ambiance. The street was otherwise pretty quiet, so you know you’re in the right spot. The food was largely British staples, so if you’re into that then you’ll enjoy it. It’s never my favorite, but it’s hearty for a cold day. I got an americano and an omelette on toast with sausages."

"What a fabulous place near to the station. I wanted a full English before heading home by train, and google reviews highly rated this place, and I was not disappointed. Perfectly cooked and the cheesy egg made with mozzarella was a lovely addition to the whole meal. Unlike most full English breakfast, the tomato was actually warm, and so had been through a cooking process, so many times, with other places, I’ve just had a old tomato plonked in amongst the food, but this was all done perfectly, tasty sausages, nicely cooked bacon, delicious mushrooms. If you want to get a good meal to start your morning then you can’t go wrong by coming here."

"Very nice place just next to the tram stop. Ample space and quick service I had the English breakfast. The sausage in the breakfast may not be the best sausage you have eaten but it wasn't the worst. It was definitely 8/10. Everything else was top notch. Good deal for the price"

"Visited this delightful little cafe on Saturday 8th November, which is very close to New Street Station. Never have i had to queue to get in to a cafe, but the wait wasnt too long. A cosy welcoming little cafe seems family run and the staff are very nice and friendly. We opted for the Full breakfast at £14.95, with 2 sausage, 2 bacon, 2 poached eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, beans and 2 toast, you are able to have omelette instead of the poached eggs. They have an extensive menu and watching all the different food coming out, all of which looke delicious. Our breakfast certainly hit the spot before we went shopping and all the ingredients were fresh and good quality, my wife commented that her sausages were the best she had in ages. A very nice little old school cafe which is well worth a visit. Not many of these quaint cafes left. The only reason i gave 4 stars was i dont like mushrooms or tomatoes."

"One of the best coffees I’ve had in a long time — it was honestly amazing. The staff are very kind and welcoming, and the guys in the kitchen are really friendly too. It’s a perfect place for a rainy day, with great coffee and good food. Definitely recommend it!"

"Had a lovely morning, it was obvious that the cafe was popular. We had to queue outside but only for a few minutes. Very quick service. The food was good. Due to the popularity of the place, we did feel like we were rushed but understandable when they had people queuing."
