Ju Ju's Cafe in Birmingham

Best English breakfast I’ve ever eaten! Great ambience and amazing service

We went yesterday. The staff are really friendly and talkative which adds to the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. We had cocktails and brunch out in the sunshine and it was absolutely delightful. The food was incredibly tasty and was the best brunch I’ve had in ages. If you want delicious, reasonably priced food, with a nice atmosphere and staff who really value you then this is the cafe to go to. Would give 10 stars if I could. Will be coming again to try the other things on the menu and see the lovely staff. Thanks ☺️

Visited here for breakfast. Food was delicious and service great. Friendly relaxed atmosphere. Great mimosas, Brumi Mary's and Porky Hash put us right for the day.

First visit and very deserving of their Google review rating, food, service and atmosphere all top notch and a good price value point.

Cannot praise this place enough! Both Jude & Matthew were brilliant hosts, the food was off the chart and the prices are more than reasonable. We got here by taking a few wrong turns out of Birmingham city centre and Broad Street… So glad we did!! We will definitely be back. We recommend 5 stars.

First time trying the place, it was lovely to sit by the canal. ,in the sun and have a delicious breakfast very flavoursome with an excellent.portion size, we had the full breakast and a veggie breakfast amd both were enjoyed, definatly worth a visit. The Sevice was excellent and the restaurant had very eclectic and quirky decor,

Easily the best roast pork dinner I've ever had. Everything was oozing with taste. Spectacular!

Came for breakfast with my partner and had a wonderful experience. The views of the canal are exceptional, the breakfast was terrific. The cafe has a lovely welcoming and homely feeling and the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming all in all it’s was 10/10 experience and can’t wait to visit again.

Found this great little gem before going to the Utilita Arena. It was quiet but the food and service was great. My wife had the fish and chips with really crunchy batter which she said was the best inland fish she’d had. I had the belly pork with mash and a side of black pudding. The belly pork was cooked really well with nice crunchy crackling and a tasty stuffing on the side. Really happy with our visit and would recommend if you’re in the area. I’ll be visiting again for definite 👍🏻

Absolutely wonderful, food was lovely, service excellent and overall was just a lovely place to be. Sat outside and had brunch!

Very nice place! Lovely food! And good prices! Would highly recommend! The staff is very friendly and it feels like you came over to their home. Very quiet and peaceful atmosphere by the channel. The decor of the place is super cool and authentic. The food came in a timely manner and it was of the right temperature and it tasted delicious. The only hiccup was that I washed for hollandase sauce to be on the side instead of the top of my eggs but they misunderstood and gave me an extra Hollandese sauce. Despite that I still enjoyed the food. Would definitely come back!

We are visiting Birmingham on our boat, fellow boaters and anyone really, you won't find a better little place to eat, we have visited on 2 occasions once for breakfast which was delicious and once for a Sunday roast, the food and service are amazing, if you are visiting the area this place us a must to visit!!

Amazing food .. Fantastic service.. The mother of the daughter who owns it served us, and she was absolutely lovely ,so friendly and polite .. Vegetarian options are great .. Meals are so tasty, and the portion sizes are great, too .. Very quirky decor throughout the cafe /restaurant .. Little Oscar was a cute character, too .. Will definitely be back if in the area ..

Tuvimos un tiempo maravilloso en ju Ju’s , la comida era divina y el servicio excelente, la mejor comida que he tenido en mucho tiempo, no puedo esperar a volver

We came here as a group of 16 on Saturday 15th March. The service was wonderful, with the staff always checking in on us, making sure we had enough drinks, and keeping us up to date as they prepared an enormous amount of food. They were so courteous and friendly, and it made our get together so special! Fantastic service!

An absolutely fantastic café for a hearty meal and wonderful service. We visited as a large group and had the best time from the minute we walked in. The owners and staff were so friendly and attentive, we felt so welcome and all of our allergies and preferences were accommodated. The quirky decor was brilliant and the food was INCREDIBLE- hot, fresh, cooked to order and delicious. We couldn't have had a better time!

Great place, good food, lovely atmosphere. Very accommodating for a big group.

2da ocacion que visito este lugar y no deja de solprende, me sente en el fondo y encontré una pequeña salon oculto con una decoración bastante moderna no esperas que el lugar sea tan grande. Respecto ala comida una maravilla y muy rápido el servicio. Tuve la oportunidad de ver nuevamente a fancy, pense que no iba a reconocerme pero para mi asombrado se acordó que estuve hace 2 días cenando. Hoy fue la Hamburguesa The big Yorkie y la anterior noche nachos con chorizo & black pudding hash.

Very nice café in Birmingham which has a rich menu and lots of vegetarian and vegan options. The mother and her daughter are super nice. We love it!

Really great service, was looked after wonderfully

I arrived by chance... They were in a special location and the night caught your attention. A simple decoration but that catches the eye, the service is great, the waiter was very attentive to me and made sure I was comfortable. The food surprised me by liking the tacos and the chorizo ​​& black, simply spectacular, many flavors and nuances that develop on the palate... The view at night next to the river is wonderful.

Tuve una comida maravillosa en Ju Ju esta noche con mi pareja, hermano y padres. El ambiente es relajado y acogedor, nuestro camarero encantador (que confirmó que había comenzado recientemente) era muy atento y amable. También nos registraron por la encantadora anfitriona un par de veces para asegurarse de que todo estaba bien, que era un buen toque. La comida era deliciosa, recién cocinada, comida casera, con tamaños de porción que son justos. También hay sabrosos postres para elegir, así que asegúrese de ahorrar espacio. En general, una encantadora comida relajada con la familia, hecha especial por el personal amable. Gracias. Muy recomendable! : )

We had a lovely meal here on Saturday night, 5 of us before a show. It was perfect for what we were looking for, gorgeous home cooked food, very friendly service. A real hidden gem! Will be back without a doubt.

First time here but definitely not the last. Such a lovely warm welcome & happily accommodated two extra guests. Food was amazing (home made nachos are 👌🏻. Highly recommend a visit & can’t wait to come back .

Good food and service. Shame about a constantly barking dog in the cafe

We stumbled across this gem of a place on the Birmingham Canals, not far from the main drag. After some shopping and a beautiful walk along the canal side we enjoyed a superb Sunday Roast. In fact the Beef Brisket was probably one of the best roast dinners I have ever had. Friendly service in a relaxed environment overlooking the canal was the perfect way to finish our Sunday afternoon.

I’m from London so had no clue where to go and needed a good refresher the day after a Sabrina carpenter concert.. this place looked great and clean on google so me and my bestie decided to go for it and weren’t disappointed!!! I had a lovely veggie full English and my friend had an eggs Benedict which we both thoroughly enjoyed. The service was also so amazing with the gentleman welcoming us with a lovely smile and also constantly checked to see if everything was okay. Would highly recommend!

I cannot comment on the food as we didn’t actually get that far. However I’d seen a customer allowing her dog to eat from her plate. The dog was sitting at the table on the chair. Multiple staff members had walked past and not said a word. So I can only assume, it’s acceptable in their restaurant. Just put me off, while I understand some people treat their dogs like humans. I don't think it’s acceptable or hygienic to be doing so in restaurants. With the same plates used by the public. I don’t want to be eating from a plate, a dog has licked/eaten from. For this reason alone. I would not eat here or ever return.

Such a beautiful place, get refreshed having a complete brunch. With fabulous view

The food was delicious, the gentleman who served the food was very nice, but it was not clean, our table was dirty and sticky.

What a gem! Came here for brunch the morning after my Hen do night, we had the warmest welcome from Matthew and the team. Best customer service ever, taking pictures of us and nothing was too much trouble. Food was yummy! Would absolutely come back if we are in Birmingham again!

Attended Ju Ju's with some friends for brunch as part of a hen party. We were served by Matthew, who was an absolute delight and could not do enough for us. He was charming, gave great service, and really just made our whole experience excellent. The atmosphere was lovely - welcoming and friendly staff, decorated nicely, spacious. The food was great; arrived quickly and very flavourful, large portions at reasonable prices. We didn't get to meet Ju Ju herself, unfortunately, but we heard great things and will likely head back there to meet her some day (we're from Sheffield otherwise I'd be back there next weekend!)

Incredible breakfast here, try the chorizo and black pudding hash, superb! Staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful. A perfect brunch spot by the canal.

My partner and I have been coming here for the past 3 years and it has never disappointed! You can tell the food is made with love and the quality of the food is always consistent. It is lovely to be greeted by all of the staff team in a welcoming and accommodating manner. Nothing is ever too much trouble- would highly recommend visiting for either Brunch or Dinner!

Lovely staff, beautiful food, chilled out city centre canalside setting. Certainly not fast food, this is home cooked quality fare. If you're waiting impatiently while they're cooking, I find you can always have another Bloody Mary or three.

After reading the reviews, I had high hopes for a great Sunday lunch with my friends, but I was left beyond disappointed. The food was bad—one of the better ways to describe it—and it took them 45 minutes just to take our drinks order. The staff were pleasant and personable, but that couldn’t make up for the appalling food and wait.

¡Una vez más se tuvo una tarde maravillosa en Ju Ju’s! Julia y Matt realmente son anfitriones perfectos que hacen la visita especial. La comida está hecha con amor y ¡no puedes probarla! Un lugar increíble para pasar la tarde (o cualquier otro momento del día) ! X

Very cozy place with amazing view , the food was very nice especially the Nachos were very Yummy, And amazing service by Julia , she is very beautiful and lovely lady 😍

We went today for breakfast, everything was AMAZING! The location over the canal is exceptional and very relaxing. The atmosphere and food were great. Julia, the owner, was such a lovely person taking care of everything and everyone. I highly recommend this place.

Absolutely delightful service and atmosphere. Friendly owners and staff - I felt very well taken care of. Food is delicious, comforting, and excellent portion sizes. The Sunday roast was a standout and I'm glad I made the trip!

I came here for breakfast, I had the meaty breakfast. The food just ok, but we waited 45mins for the food. You may feel bit ignored but it’s just the way they work here. I wouldn’t go again

Found this gem of a place on TripAdvisor. Cannot recommend it highly enough. Fantastic food, huge portions and the staff are very friendly. Would go back if visiting Birmingham again.

Banging all day breakfast & super warm friendly greeting, in a great city centre location watching the boats pass by👌 Quirky fun decor

Not living in Birmingham it is several years since we visited Ju Ju's. It was brilliant then and it is brilliant now. The entrance door was opened for us as we approached by the owner with a big smile. We had two delicious meals served by very pleasant waiters and waitresses and had a long chat with the owner. It was a lovely mid morning experience and WE WILL RETURN.

Wonderful food and service. Loved it.

Juju's is a very friendly place, where they serve true British Cuisine. The garlic bread and the pork ribs are excellent. If you feel like it, try the lemon ice tea with a tad of Vodka in it. The dog, Oscar, is very calm and cute. Honestly, the best service of Birmingham, if not the whole of the UK. I look forward to my next visit.

We visited Ju Ju's after staying at the Hyatt Regency hotel on Broad Street and it was a short walk for Breakfast at Ju Ju's and it was Incredible!! From the friendly welcome, to the fantastic fresh and quickly delivered food it was great from start to finish. Loads of options to eat, my wife and I had a Full English breakfast and their special chorizo and black pudding hash. It was one of the best preakfasts we have ever had ... And I have had a few 😍. Really good coffee as well and reasonably priced, Ju Ju's is exactly the sort of friendly, independent restaurant that should be supported any chance you get. So if your staying at a Broad Street hotel ditch the grim hotel breakfast and give Ju Ju's a try...But make sure you book 😊.

Nice atmosphere. Lovely breakfast!!

A super atmosphere in this canalside restaurant/cafe with great service! Julia and Matthew were great hosts and happily managed our specific requests. I’ll be back! 😄

‘Cafe’ doesn’t do it justice. This is an independent restaurant with freshly cooked food. The food was delicious, generous and beautifully presented. The staff are friendly and welcoming. It has a quirky interior the atmosphere was great the night we went. I can’t wait to go back. It’s right by the canal I think it would be a lovely spot to sit outside in good weather. I would recommend walking away from the big chains that occupy Brindley Place and support an independent restaurant. The quality of food versus what you pay for it is unbelievable in a good way.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Juju’s Cafe is hands down my favorite place to eat in Birmingham! The food is always incredible—fresh, homemade, and packed with flavor. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or dinner, every meal we’ve had here has been amazing. The staff and owner are so welcoming, making every visit feel special. It’s also a fantastic dog-friendly spot, and our Border Terrier absolutely loves it! We recently had the Valentine’s Day menu, and it was some of the best food we’ve had in a long time—the inside-out garlic chicken Kiev was beyond amazing! Highly recommend Juju’s to anyone looking for delicious food, a great atmosphere, and top-notch service. Can’t wait for our next visit!

Food was delicious. Service was friendly, welcoming and very accommodating.

This place is a real gem in the world of franchise’s & multinationals. A non pretentious cafe that serves wonderful food in a lovely environment with engaging hosts, highly recommended

Nice food in a riverside setting

This cafe is not pretending to be anything it's not! It's cost and wholesome food! We were in town for a show and came here for breakfast. The menu looked good and the food did not disappoint! We had parked about 10 mins away and I didn't see any parking local to this cafe, so make plans before hand if you are traveling by car. We were welcomed warmly and within moments seated. It looks small but has a surprising amount of space. Which it needs as it was very popular and filled up pretty quickly! You order by scanning the QR code, which seems to becoming the norm these days. When the food came it looked amazing and tasted just as good. It has a lot of options for vegetarians! A point about the coffee! It was lovely! Usually I end up adding a little sugar to dull the bitter taste, but here it tasted amazing! Just right! Highly recommend this place but I'm guessing when the weather is better, this place is that much more in demand. Definitely one I saved to come back to when in the area again. ENJOY!

I absolutely love this place the most disappointing part is I’ve not been in a long time with working away. I will be coming back here a lot more!

Excellent service from the staff!! Food was amazing as well. Would deffo recommend to anyone to come here and check it out!

Lovely gem of a restaurant. Very friendly welcome and delicious Sunday roast - will be back again! 100% recommend. Thanks

Chorizo and black pudding hash is exceptionally good. So good and huge in portion size I had to take the rest home with me. Great service and friendly host. A great place to be even on your own.

A lovely place to be. Great service and friendly hosts. It's like been welcomed in to their home. And the food. Chorizo Black pudding hash. The best. And extremely generous portions. I had to take away the rest as I couldn't eat it all and refused to let it go in the bin. It's bloody lovely. I'm currently in a food coma and will need rolling home after this. A must go place for anyone.

Had the full English, crispy pork belly, sundae brownie and sticky toffee pudding 🤩🤩

Great atmosphere, service was exceptional, food was fantastic and catered well to coeliacs. 10/10 recommend

Had a great meal tonight! The lamb burger was delicious! And the service was amazing!

I thought it was a friendly service omg the have the most adorable dog called Oscar who looks like a teddy bear and he wears a security jumper lol!!! Technical glitch with computer systems but all resolved Coffee was warm.

Food was amazing service was great will definitely be back

Lovely food and great host. Thanks so much

Top quality genuine friendly service you’re not like to find in most places in the city, high quality food, and a cool dog walking around the shop

Great Sunday Roast The Beef was melt in the mouth The lovely Juju and her team genuinely want you to have a fabulous meal and feel part of the family

What an incredible place to spend an afternoon! My husband and I went for Sunday lunch and genuinely couldn’t have wanted for more! We were made to feel like friends from the get-go, and the food was cooked and served with love. The little touches are what makes this place- everything was home-made. The beef was the most tender I have ever tried, and the pork was delicious! Definitely try the trillionaire tart- top notch! Big love to Julia and the gorgeous waiter whose name I wished I’d got! See you soon x

What a wonderful little gem , superb food wonderful staff you genuinely can’t ask for better . The best roast beef I’ve ever had cooked to perfection with love.

A trip to Ju jus has become a Christmas tradition for us, its central canal side location is ideal for our group as we come from different corners of the Midlands. Even though it was busy Julia and the team were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. As a group we had items from the Christmas menu. Each dish was hot and fresh, no reheated/frozen food served here! Service was timely which is always an achievement when serving a large group. Drinks were topped up and bar service was excellent.

What a great little gem JuJus is. I thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas dinner yesterday and had a wonderful time with friends. We were a party of 12 and the food, drinks and service were amazing. Julia, Matthew and the team really looked after us and we are looking forward to going back to JuJus again in January before heading over to the NIA to see Strictly 🙂🙂🙂

INCREDIBLY cosy with the friendliest staff I’ve ever come across. Desserts have been consistently amazing and the location is scenic also

We stumbled across Ju Ju's one dark evening and we absolutely love it here! The atmosphere, the staff, the food, the surroundings and views of the canal were all magical, thank you, we will be back :)

Have been a couple of times and the food was great!! Very friendly owner, good service and relaxed atmosphere. Yorkshire puddings were 👌

We visited Ju Ju's over the weekend, whilst visiting family. The brunch was delicious and the service and ambience was great. We will definitely visit again when we are back in Birmingham.

Instantly likeable staff and a very homely atmosphere. The food was second to none and so was the canal side view. Would very strongly recommend Ju Ju’s Café to anybody with taste buds.

the food overall is great quality, very cozy atmosphere, a neighborhood gem

A fab independent cafe, for a tasty bite to eat (we had breakfast). Welcoming, easy going atmosphere. Great menu choices. Friendly and attentive staff who can't do enough to make sure you enjoy your time at Ju Ju's . Thank you :)

Fantastic spot for Sunday lunch. The Vegan Wellington is delicious. Easily the best vegan roast in Birmingham. Great music, fantastic service

A fabulous meal in this independent restuaraunt this evening, Nachos were home made and gorgeous. Main courses delicious. Drinks very reasonably priced. Staff great and welcoming but not intrusive. Would highly recommend this restuaraunt. Easily accessible from the center, you are missing a trick if you don't try it.

We had the roast beef and vegan wellington and both were delicious! Would highly recommend!

Visited with friends for brunch. Service is so attentive and welcoming without being false or overbearing... I cannot express enough how good the service was. The location at the canal side with warm decor inside made this a wonderful place to sit and eat. Food was served quickly and was delicious. I had the Lebanese brunch with halloumi. Generous portions and really cooked well. I can thoroughly recommend the Brummy Mary 😁

Amazing food, very good service, relaxed atmosphere and very accommodating. My grandson wanted something that wasn't on the menu and they gave him what he wanted. It was nice and cozy. I didn't want to leave. I also love the Chief of security (Oscar the dog).

Extremely pleasant cafe could have stayed there all day. Very accommodating kept my autistic child happy even made him something not on the menu amazing place to go highly recommended 👌

Really nice friendly place with very helpful staff and excellent quality food

Food was bang on and nice service. Would definitely go again.

Arrived at this beautifully located Cafe, with a lovely canal side view. The staff were all approachable, professional and courteous. The food was absolutely delicious and left me considering what the rest of the menu might taste like! I would highly recommend this place to anyone considering taking a visit.

longest waiting time on earth, I got hungry by the time waiting for a takeaway coffee

Incredible little place. Great atmosphere. Great food. Great greeting by Oscar the dog

Booked Unicorn room for Hen do. Food fabulous owner and staff very friendly. Only downside need seperate music option for that room.

The food was spectacular and we were almost crying tears of joy and humming with every bit of our roasts! ❤️ The thing that makes this place special however is the service and staff. Ju and Lynne made us feel so welcome and comfortable from the moment we stepped in. We felt like we belonged and really enjoyed all that this place offered. You can tell this place was made out of love for food and people! Defo coming back with the friends!

Hands down the best Sunday roast and drinks spot in the West Midlands. The food is 10/10, the service is exceptional and the whole place has a fun and cheeky atmosphere, we absolutely love coming here

Long overdue first time at JuJu’s and certainly won’t be our last. Great setting and tasty food. Our server Nayah was super friendly!

I visited Juju's in early evening, looking for somewhere nice to have a glass of wine and a small meal prior to going to a gig at the Utilita Arena. I'd done some basic research on this because, as a solo woman, I needed to find a place where I would feel welcome and at ease. What a fine decision this was! Warm welcome, lovely wine (dry French Rosé), excellent food (home-made ratatouille bruschetta) and great ambience. Thoroughly recommended.

Great location on the canal, great food and a lovely welcome. Visited on Sunday for Brunch based on a recommendation, and was not disappointed. Julie was very welcoming and a great host. Endless cups of tea and coffee to help us recover from a heavy night out, and we were not rushed to leave, which was great as the weather was not as welcoming!

The place was nice, the food was good if you ate meat or fish and the service was good but I have to say the vegetarian option or the vegan option was so poor my I couldn't eat it. There was no effort at all. It was basically a frozen quorn rubber flavourless pale slab. A nice homemade vegetarian Wellington would be easy and enjoyed I'm sure.
