Cafe Viola in Solihull - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Hi, I only gave it four stars due to the cost of the cakes, they were very expensive but... there's always a but they were nice. Service was good and very pleasant atmosphere. Thank you

the workers are lovely and greet you politely when you walk in. food is really nice aswell as the drinks. would recommend for some lunch.

Took a detour off the M42 and found this gem. Really nice Mediterranean food and great coffee. Friendly service and dogs allowed too. Will definitely come back.

Nice place, good selection on the menu.

The coffee is very rich and flavorful. This is the only coffee I drink now. I think everyone should try it at least once.

Wow what an amazing family Buisness. Love the food love the atmosphere plus plus plus!!

Went in for a cup of tea. The ladies were very helpful and friendly. A lovely little tea/coffee shop very clean and tidy.

Friendly service and good coffee. Food was nice but only had panini. Dog friendly too.

Quaint cafe with awesome old school service, quality food and value! A definite vegan find.

Coffee very bitter. Cost more than Costa.

Wow 🤩 what a fabulous place, Amazing food & lovely people running it. Will definitely do lunch next time

Lovely place done out nice i went in on my own for coffee and cake and felt at home

Lovely atmosphere with a wonderful food and drink selection

Surprised to learn that tapas are available, which are great alternatives to regular cafe food. Barca is the deep fried whitebait which was all crunchy and umami. Toledo is shrimp with mushroom in pepper etc which was YUM. Best thing is, the large coffee is still MASSIVE!

friendly cafe serving traditional Turkish cuisine and coffee

Very overpriced food, nothing special, taste like it wasn’t freshly made on site, more like food from supermarket.

Went to Viola and had tea and scone. When the scone arrived it was a miniature of the type used with afternoon tea when there are several. Cost for one miniature scone £3.29. Daylight robbery I'm afraid

Delicious ommlette, friendly atmousphere

Lovely coffee and cake and pleasant staff.

Very good coffee and good quality food. It's on the quieter end of the street so a more relaxing place to sit outside

Prompt friendly service, good coffee, delicious carrot cake and tasty toasted teacake. Dog friendly too.

A very pleasant, dog-friendly café with plenty of vegetarian options. Strong Turkish vibe is great. The wraps and paninis are excellent, the cakes even better. Most of the cakes are baked fresh on the premises, I understand. Great coffees, too, of all kinds. Definitely try this place if you're in Knowle. Managed to grab another quick visit and had a really nice cooked wrap. Excellent service and excellent food.

Pink is Cafe Viola’s favourite colour. With its vibrant decor and outdoor seating arrangement. This is the cafe to be seen drinking outside.

Beautiful cafe, my favourite in the village. Lovely hot chocolates.

Just love Viola..the owners and all they have done here and for community..would love to see evening dinner return with the atmosphere they created.

Nice cup of tea and a toasted teacake each

A nice coffee stop whilst out cycling.

Good service, they do a great milkshake. Was a little bit expensive for what you get.

Good food. Mixture of known and new foods. Greek, English and Tukish. Was able to order non menu items. Outdoor seating. Good friendly vibe. Toilets after steps. A good establishment for Knowle. It helps improve High St with its high-quality food and outdoor seating.

Nothing too special, but overall good. Would’ve given 5 stars if the food didn’t take ages to arrive.

Happened to be in knowle so grabbed Sunday lunch. Turkish chicken kebab and Turkish meatballs were tasty enough. The milkshakes were very special, overall food and venue were good.

First time out since the pandemic. Felt safe. Lovely decor, great service, and the best coffee ever!!

Lovely independent café, good coffee and friendly staff. Worth a visit

Excellent food and very welcoming and friendly staff.

We always enjoy the lunches at Cafe Viola. Such a lovely friendly place with a good atmosphere. The falafel wraps are wonderful, as is the rest of the menu. I can't wait to try the afternoon teas, they look so delicious. A little gem in Knowle.

Lovely little tea shop, very welcoming staff.

Pretty cafe with amazing baklava

Lovely independent coffee shop with great selection and fabulous decor.

Great little restaurant with a Mediterranean theme. Well worth a visit for coffee or a meal.

Lovely coffee and very generous slice of red velvet cake which was delicious. Would have given 5 stars but service was slow considering it wasn't busy

Great food in a safe environment and staff friendly and efficient.

Just enjoyed a beautiful balaclava and tea with my friend. I always receive excellent service and the food is delicious .

Fantastic Valentine's Day meal with my beloved husband. So much delicious food we had to bring our desserts home. Friendly service, quaint venue and an awesome menu. Follow us on sit_and.eat for more foodie reviews.

Trying hard and I think achieving Covid secure service whilst still an enjoyable atmosphere. Food good as ever and generous portion size. Excellent and fairly priced wine list care of Connolly's fine wines. Very quiet due to Corona virus restrictions, so good time to give them a try?

Great selection for lunch. Great setting.

Lovely independent coffee shop very friendly staff nice coffee but could improve on cake selection.

Only called in for quick coffee which was excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will certainly call in again.

Lovely Food snd Service. Cannot wait to ho back 😊

Temperature tested etc . Felt stressful

Such a european experience to eat and have coffee here. The iced coffee was amazing and the tina nicoise was out of this world. Will keep going back.

Lovely place to stop for a coffee. Wonderful ☕ 👍👌🏻

OK my fort no English breakfast mediteranian food what I had was nice

Nice atmosphere and staff. Good spot to stop in for a light lunch or and afternoon hot drink with something sweet.

Wonderful meal excellent service and quality

Lovely decor. An intimate space. Friendly staff and quick service. Only have one dairy free alternative milk which is soya.

The milk shakes are bad and over priced

A lovely coffee shop on the High Street. Excellent coffee and good menu. Very friendly staff who make you welcome. Highly recommend.

Just a coffee today but will be back to try the menu. Love the decor and atmosphere. Xxx

This Italian style Coffee Shop has a lovely atmosphere well set out and bigger than it looks from the street. The coffee gets top Mark's from me. As I have not sampled the food yet I can not comment but It has a good proportion of locals present. So would imagine the food would also be very good.

Good place for coffee and meals

Absolutely terrible service! I’ve never been treated with so much attitude by a waitress. The service completely destroyed the whole experience and nothing could ever make up for basic manners

Quaint tea shoppe in the middle of 'Tweeville' where everything is reminiscent of Mary Poppins!

Been several times of an evening, lovely food.

Only problem is that it closes early

I visit this café regularly for coffee and a tea cake whilst I'm out cycling. I always get a warm welcome from the staff and the coffee and tea cake are always excellent.

Had a lovely meal this evening with my boyfriend, the lady who served us was very welcoming and kind. The decor was very nice and was well laid out. Food was delicious and good portion sizes too. Will definitely be back again!

Nice place for Coffee and helpful staff

Ordered 2 cups of tea and 2 X poached eggs on toast =£16.80! It came out with 2 eggs on 2 halves of a toasted panini with butter on the side? Not saying the food was bad but come on.... I've never paid this much money for poached eggs before. I go to London regularly and have never paid this much.

For a sunny mid afternoon mid week place to stop of and enjoy a bite to eat,coffee . Nice relaxing and not over imposing high street cafe on a quiet town.Food was fine, will be more than willing to bring friends next time

Lovely, welcoming little café. Tasty cake and good coffee!

Another great experience, thank you viola.

Great food and service. Dogs welcome!

Really enjoyed the surroundings and food, nice chilled out place with quality food and wine

Perfect... Food, wine, service.... Thankyou.

Truly one of the best little restaurants. So cosy with a good taste in décor and top tasting menu. Large selection of coffees to complete the night. Thank you Dilora, her father Cafer and mother Funda. A hidden gem.

Super cafe with a relaxed atmosphere whether for evening meals, lunches and for a cup of tea or hot chocolate.

Relaxing when not busy. Food OK and perfectly decent but can be a bit basic if that's OK

It’s a great spot for lunch. Great food. Great choice. Great service.

Lovely Cafe. Great Atmosphere. Brilliant Coffee and Cake

2nd visit to this wonderful cafe/bistro, lovely decor, welcoming staff & a nice menu. I would recommend whole heartedly to young & old, families and friends. I'm looking forward to visiting again.

Brill place, been there twice, food is simple and delicious. Place itself very friendly, more caffe-like, not a restaraunt. Lunch for 5 wasabout £60. Will come again.
