Nimmings Cafe Clent in Bromsgrove

Great little cafe, always enjoy the door step sandwiches here after a nice walk with the dog. Good service, friendly staff and lovely food every time 😊

Very very disappointed.. They used to do the best bacon sandwiches, I ever had... very sorry that "Shrinkflation" has taken hold here. Once thick cut bread is now thin and once lots of slices of bacon now down to one. Very disappointed especially as the price also seems to have increased. Come on guys restore your reputation! I would gladly pay more to have the excellent sandwiches you used to do.

Great area to walk. Car park free to NT members just scan your card After your walk, a coffee and absolutely fantastic bacon butty. If you’re greedy, add an egg! Good service. Only issue is if it’s raining there’s no cover Highly recommend

Very friendly staff, lovely bacon sandwiches, great little cafe. There are tables outside so you can sit and enjoy the views.

The cafe is reasonably priced with great sandwiches on thickly cut bread. Coffee was hot which is increasingly hard to get in coffee shops these days but very welcome.

Visited today after lovely walk up Clent. Ordered bacon and egg sandwich and latte. Omg it’s just awesome! Their bacon sandwiches are wonderful. The latte was hot and creamy, perfection. On busy days you’ll have a wait but believe me it’s worth it. You sit outside looking over beautiful countryside and I can’t stress how tasty the food is, just wonderful.

Called in Sunday am, to the cafe in the National Trust car park at Nimmings Wood, variation on bacon, egg or sausage on white or granary bread, with or with out sauce! Freshly cooked, door stopper of a sandwich, really tasty and for £3.50. - just brilliant.

Real doorsteps with plenty of bacon, all safely served as a takeaway during Covid restrictions. Worth the climb up the hill no matter how you get there.

After a lovely stroll to four stones this sunny morning, stopped for bacon, sausage and egg sandwiches. Bread is wonderful, don't know who makes it, but they have a winner, Crusty, soft thick with great fillings. Shall be back. Thank you

The sandwiches are amazing! Well worth the money! Fill you up before a walk or after a walk! Friendly staff and a lovely view to look at why you are waiting! Such a relaxing environment! Definitely worth a visit!

Given how prominent environmental concerns are and given that the draw here is a beautiful spot of nature outside of Birmingham, it was surprising to see the use of plastic/styrofoam cups and paper plates without any discernible form of recycling in the cafe. Disappointed.

Visited here on numerous occasions during the past few years. Always great food. . . Doorstep sandwiches. Bacon, sausage, egg, etc. Pay for food, wait for your number to be called, collect your food and then fill your belly! Recent visit was news years day. 6 different hot sandwiches were ordered and all were soooo tasty! I think the price of bacon and egg sandwich was £3.50.

Get there a good and early as can get busy we went there in the week so not to bad. The bacon and egg sandwich was super and yummy hot chocolate was very nice to. What a lovely place to visit suites for all ages. And as wheel chair access to the top. Can get muddy so boots are advised.

My elderly Dad and I visited for lunch after a stroll up to the toposcope. As always, the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was very tasty, substantial and extremely reasonably priced. We each had a doorstep sandwich, a large mug of tea and a huge hunk of homemade blueberry cake, and the total bill was only £12! This isn't a posh spot (we sat on plastic chairs under the canopy as it was raining) but for hearty al fresco food, it can't be beaten.

I had a lovely egg muffin but my son had a bacon sandwich and although the bread was really fresh, the bacon was dried and hard (Just overcooked I think). This could have been due to numbers. it was packed! Tea, coffee and hot chocolate is brilliant and I had a piece of bread pudding, fresh from the oven. Cinnamon rich but lovely and fresh.

The cafe is in an amazing location on the Clent hills, where you can enjoy nice walks and wonderful views. You can enjoy your food and drink while looking at all the wonderful scenery. The sandwiches are big and will definitely fill you up, Bacon, sausage and egg is always my favourite. The bread is thick and has loads of filling, it's definitely a proper sandwich. Also the price of the food and drink is quite cheap! If i had to choose a place to go for a breakfast sandwich, i will always choose here. They are the best sandwiches around! Perfect place to be for dog walkers, families, friends and even if you just want to look at the nice views. Its always a great place to take your friends and family on a nice day for a bite to eat. One thing is, the cafe can get quite busy and might take some time for your order to arrive, especially around the afternoon period. But that should be a problem if your with good company and take in all the scenery while you wait.

At the entrance of National Trust walks into Clent Hills this open air Café provides excellent ( British) hot sandwiches to challenge any building site or factory canteen together with hot drinks at very reasonable prices. After a good walk enjoying the spectacular walks in the Clent Hills this is very welcome refreshment. Not to be missed , though most seating is in the open air. Seems very popular which is not surprising

I have brought friends here from around the country and overseas to experience the bacon butties! They all still talk about them and want to come back. What could be better than a walk on the hills and a big bacon sandwich with a mug of tea? The Cafe is not National Trust but the car park is and is free to members.

I arrived at my destination. To my dismay I immediately noticed there were no car park space markings and people were parking in all manner of places. One individual through sheer desperation had parked in a tree. On opening the car door I was horrified to find large puddles and an uneven surface. Onwards I walked towards the cafeteria. The concrete surface there was somewhat even although still hazardous with some slightly raised slabs. I couldn’t believe that families hadn’t noticed this and were smiling as they consumed their purchases. I was greeted by a dishevelled man, I pondered as to his age, maybe late twenties, although felt rude to inquire. Upon being asked what I would like, I felt hurried and needed to find space to plan. I returned to find a large queue. I approached the front and in no uncertain terms allowed staff and the man in particular know how I was feeling. Could a customer not walk away to fathom out what one wishes to consume? How dare they let other people intrude. I had been gone for a mere five minutes. Then, I had a pleasant surprise! After seeing how distraught a customer could be, I was kindly escorted back to my car by two friendly staff members who then waved me goodbye as I left. All in all, the whole experience cost £3 to park and would thoroughly recommend it to everyone.Richard.

The cafe has been around for a great number of years and has slowly improved the eating experience that it provides.Being used to the high quality cafe /restaurants of the Italian Dolomites and lakes we wonder why the British culture is so different.The food is simple a generally tasty although at times with the fried items like the bacon can taste too much of slightly burnt fat. The Eccles cakes are lovely and the cafe provides a good brew.Some improved under cover seating would be great but the fear of people vandalising such additions might prohibit that bit of luxury.

Great rural location by the woods up in the Clent Hills with views across the surrounding area. Very good value range of bacon and sausage sandwiches as well as toast all with doorsteps of bread. Range of generously sized coffees and tea. Handy for parking and toilets and easy walk to top of hills. National Trust members park for free. Free parking in nearby lanes. Good for walkers, mountain bikers, school trips, photographers, wildlife watchers or those just up for an easy stroll. Much of it accessible via wheelchair. Food 1000-1600.

Enjoyed our walk over Clent and then stopped for a bacon butty, one of the best around and great views. We are National Trust members so parking is free.

Aparcamos en el otro lado de Clent y caminamos por un café y un sandwich. Qué buen lugar! Un montón de opciones vegetarianas y café descafeinado también 'difficult' para nosotros. El personal es amable y muy servicial con agua comedero y cartón para bancos mojado. Sin duda volveremos porque este es un café que claramente le gusta a sus clientes.

La tarifa de aparcamiento ha desaparecido hasta £3. 00.

Fuimos andando desde casa a las Clent Hills. Tenemos una serie de rutas, pero como era tan preciosa y soleada hoy decidimos incluir el café para una taza de café. Sólo £1. Ganga! Aunque fue después de las 3 todavía había una corriente constante de clientes. Intentar comprar algo en un fin de semana sin embargo, ya que el café es tan popular

First visit of the year to Clent. Dog walking in the sunshine is really an excuse to confirm that the best bacon sarnies around are still the best.[Note that there are car parking charges - but free for NT members]

Regardless of weather it is always a joy to eat a bacon sarnie at the cafe. Sometimes very crowded but well worth the wait.Staff very friendly.

Followed the signs for café with the intention of getting a take out sandwich for lunch. Unfortunately I was told I would have to pay £2.75 parking fee to visit the café. I was unwilling to pay a £2.75 surcharge to pick up a sandwich so left, never to return......

Turned up at 10:30 on a Friday morning to a fairly big queue which was moving at a glacial pace. The problem seemed to be a bunch of what I can only assume to be regulars half chatting to the staff, half pushing in to get their mugs topped up. After ordering we waited 40 minutes for 2 bacon sandwiches. On approaching the collection counter the man told me loudly "there's a sign for a reason, no waiting here til we call your number". I wasn't waiting, I was beginning to wonder where 2 bacon sandwiches ordered over half an hour ago were. 10 minutes later they finally arrived. They were reasonable, but definitely not worth the wait or the attitude from the staff. We all have our off days, maybe this was his, maybe he's in the wrong job, maybe he's just plain ignorant. Whatever, we won't be back.

Have been meeting family and friends up here for ever. Bank holidays, Boxing Day, special occasions, you name it. It has wonderful breakfasts (big door-step bacon sandwiches) and the feel good factor. And, unlike some big names restaurants, had ALWAYS had gluten fee bread available. Thank you guys x

I've been using this cafe for years, currently most weekends. The breakfast sandwiches are superb. A good variety of sandwiches are available and both veggie and gluten free options. Thick cuts of fresh bread, big sized portions, super quality bacon from a local butcher. Not to mention the home made cakes and doggy treats. At busy times there will be a queue, and a wait for sandwiches to be served - trust me it will be worth the wait. For people who are unfamiliar with the cafe it is kiosk style meaning that all but a couple of tables are open air, so go prepared on rainy or cold days.

Hadn,t been to Clent for a long time and unfortunately didn,t pick a very nice day to visit we saw a sign for the cafe and decided to call in well we couldn't,because it only had outside seating it wasn,t raining just misty so we sat outside and had the most tasty bacon and mushroom sandwich I,ve had in a long time they had a good sandwich and snacks menu and the coffee was really good, we will chose a better day next rime we go.

Living in Hagley we love to walk to the cafe at Clent Hills I can highly recommend the bacon sarnie they really are top notch,tea and coffee are also good so do call in you won't be disappointed.

A fantastic little cafe based on the Nimmings Wood car park at Clent. It is family and pet friendly and is where many walkers and their pets congregate after a walk through Clent. Fabby Bacon sandwiches and lots of treats for the dogs.

Always a bit of a queue but it's well worth it! The bacon and egg sarnie is lovely and I've always had a great cuppa tea with it.

Best all day breakfast sandwich ever! with a view to remember. Especially enjoyable with a cuppa after a walk to top of the hill with even better views. Only outdoor seating.

Probably the best bacon buttie you'll ever have! Especially if you've walked for it. Very reasonable priced and great cuppa too.

Just came back from a walk in the hills and a stop off at the cafe for a bite to eat. It was a busy day (Mothering Sunday) so there was a bit of a wait, but it was well worth it. Best bacon sandwich I can remember ever eating I think! Kids enjoyed a sausage sarnie which looked equally good, as did the veggie option for my wife. Surprisingly good!

My dog and I enjoyed a good long walk over the Clent Hills before stopping here for breakfast. A lovely bacon sandwich on decent bread, and good to have a proper mug rather than those horrible polystyrene jobs. Setting is spot on, and it's nice to see water for the dog too. The only reason it wasn't five stars is that it was late opening on the day I visited - probably only about 5-10 minutes, but after a long walk and the smell of bacon wafting out, it was a bit frustrating.

Been here a few times. Amazing breakfast sandwiches and a cuppa. Treats for dogs on offer too. Seating is all outside, some under a shelter. Really reasonable priced. Loos are clean and tidy.

The National Trust cabin on the Clent Hills is in great location up in the hills by the woods and provides wonderful, large well cooked bacons sandwiches on doorsteps of wholemeal bread.

walked the hills . ended with the best cooked sandwiches in the area.quick service..Only downside is not many seats under cover if weather not too good.

Having walked some 6.5 miles around the Clent Hills this café is just the job to ease away any tiredness and muse over the activity just completed

We had been on a lovely five-mile walk curtesy of the NT volunteers and finished at Nimmings. We originally intended to find a pub but the long queue suggested the food here was worth waiting for.We both had bacon and sausage, one on granary the other on white bread and they were delightful. Despite the cold weather and outdoor seating the sandwiches were piping hot, not greasy and delicious.If you're in hte area it's a must try.

You need good weather at Nimmings as there is no indoor seating. In addition, you have to sit on wooden picnic benches and enjoy the outdoor environment. Despite this,however, the staff are very friendly and the sandwiches are excellent, good value and tasty. Nimmings cafe is definitely one of the best outdoor cafes in the Midlands. You even see the Police force eating there on their break.

Great views and easy walking - and a friendly cafe with real mugs of tea and sandwiches. My boys (6 and 8) love the bacon, sausage and egg sandwiches. They're big enough to keep you going for the 20 minute walk over the hill to the nearest pub ...

No visit to Clent, up 'n over the Horse's Mane, is complete without the best bacon sandwich you've ever tasted.

Lovely place for a walk (long or short). Great views. Comfortable seating and possibly the best Bacon sandwich ever

This was my first visit to clent hills and i was going to try one of these sandwiches but on the walk around we found a pub so couple of pints and a pork cob later, we finish back at the cafe and couldn't leave without trying something! nice mug of tea and piece of fruit cake was lovely! Could see all the bacon butties being prepared and on my next visit i will definitely be saving my appetite for this cafe and the monster butties. happy days.

If you want to go for a walk in wonderful countryside with far reaching views and then finish with a hot mug of tea and a bacon or sausage sandwich then this is the place. Thick crusty bread and perfectly cooked bacon or sausage, a proper man sized portion and all at very reasonable prices. The best for miles.

Great walks in lovely scenery. Cafe excellent and very reasonable amazing bacon butties. Even sell treats for the dog.

Possibly, no definitely the BEST sandwich in the world. The bread (white or granary) is lightly toasted on the grill where they cook the bacon and sausages. Then it's soft in the outside. Bacon - ask for no fat to be a bit healthy lol. Red sauce and s cupa tea. Just awesome! Well done you guys and gals !

We stopped here after a walk around the Clent hills for one of there bacon sarnies. As I had previously heard they are certainly one of the best bacon sarnies I have ever had with thick crusty fresh bread. These are made fresh so you do have to wait a several minutes if there is a queue which is certainly not a bad thing.

the walks around Clent Hills are wonderful, with stupendous panoramic views over the English countryside in all directions. Or you can walk through beech woods along the Hagley estateFinish off with a sit down and bacon butty & mug of tea at the café - heaven!

Excellent food, good value, service good, doggies very welcome. You should give it a try after walking in the lovely Clent Hills.

Couldn't find any opening times online (night before) other than 'open 7 days'.Turned up at 9am to find they open at 10 and there is a charge on the car park (as a National Trust site I thought there would be but yet again details of such charges are not provided on the NT website).Would have waited but couldn't hang around as I was getting married and wanted a nice sandwich in a nice location on my 'last morning'.Disappointed to say the least.

After a two mile round trip with dogs, the best reward is an ultimate bacon sandwich, or egg, sausage or combination.OK, the queue can get lengthy at times, and you can finish your tea before the bacon's done, but so be it... theres enough to people & dog watch whilst waiting.If there was a bacon sarnie competition, these would be hard to beat.

There is no doubt that Simon makes THE best bacon sandwich I've ever had. His cheese and BBQ sauce on toast is also beyond words, absolutely delicious.Unfortunately due to the fabulous produce served, the queue to get served just gets longer and longer and slower...whilst most walkers only want tea and sandwiches, it would appear that they offer a whole range of coffees which invariably takes much much longer to get the queue moving. After a good walk you are frozen stiff by the time you get served and even colder by the time food arrives. Please please leave the lattes, sprinkles and other stuff to Starbucks! and go back to basics so everyone gets a hot drink and sandwich rather than having to resort to going home due to the length of the queue.This is no slight on the cafe, just an adjustment required to deal with its popularity

Great little spot! Reasonably priced. We love it here. Bacon sandwich on fresh doorstep bread with a good mug of tea are always very welcome after a good walk in the Clent Hills. Highly recommended.

Superb(crusty) cheese and toast enjoyed by my grandson, my wife and I each had a bacon and tomato sandwich in lovely white bread. Two cups of tea and a "fruit shoot" total cost £11.10. All food freshly cooked to order, didn't have space for an Eccles cake!Lovely spot.

Had lunch at Nimmings Cafe. After shoping around lovly Clent Nurseary again .We had pie chips and peas and a very good pot of tea And again food is good and staff are very friendly always happy to help. SCRUMPTIOUS food at the Nimmings well done.

We came to clent today to walk the dog. Before we set off we had a lovely white coffee and the best Eccles cakes I have ever had at a really good price. Other people were having the bacon but ties ect which looked lovely again at a very good price. The girl serving was very pleasant and the views are spectacular. Please note the loos are horrid and need a good clean. Don't let this put you off because it really is worth a visit, just go to the loo before you leave home or wee in a bush!

Nimmings Cafe (situated on the National Trust car park almost at the top of Clent) is a brilliant little place to grab a pre or post walk sandwich and a cuppa. Plenty of different snacks available including fantastic crusty bacon sandwiches with mugs of tea, and a lovely view to go with them. Service is very friendly, although there can be a wait at peak times. All seating is outdoors, although there are a couple of tables under cover.

After a walk around the wonderfull Clent Nurseary today. Hubby and i had lovely bacon and salade sandwiches On realy fresh bread and proper pot of tea.. Its very hard to decide whate to eat in the Clent Restarurant That is next to the nurseary. And every time you go to eat there the food is always scrumptious !!! mmm and the staff are very happy to help .

You couldn't wish for a better tasting sarni after a walk across the Clent Hills. They are just scrumptious! While you wait for your order number to be called you enjoy the view and sip your tea. The coffee isn't great though and it would be a good move to offer proper coffee instead of instant.

The cafe at Nimmings is a must pre walk, post walk or no walk. The Clent Hills are a walker's, and dog's, paradise at all times of the year and the icing on the cake is lunch at the cafe. You get doorstep sandwiches, crusty bread, filled to overflowing with combinations of bacon, egg, sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms, all cooked from scratch. Cheese on toast is the best I've tasted and can't replicate at home. If you are still hungry home made cakes are often on the menu.There is not much undercover seating but plenty of picnic benches from which to admire the view.Clent is a delight regardless of time of year and the cafe is a MUST we visit about once a week.
