5 stars, all round. The staff were so welcoming and friendly, good vibe to the seating and decor and the full English and coffee were great tasting! Only happened to be popping in because my car was booked in at Autoglass but I would definitely return if ever I was in the area again. Thank you!

Great place..off main road but worth the diversion..Great staff and service... Really like the atmosphere..

Had a lovely event here. Was looked aftered so well. The hospitality was amazing here. Cafe is very spacious and there's ample free parking nearby. City centre is couple mins away and it's very accessible to get to via bus.

I had a full English and it was the best one i have ever had would recommend 100%

My favourite place for a take away coffee. Lovely staff and atmosphere!

The staff are absolutely amazing!!

I visited Rising Cafe, as my friend always wanted to go. On entering, there is a rustic, nautical, and laid back feel due to the wooden decor, vintage incandescent hanging light bulbs, and leather seats. We were greeted warmly, and the menu (I'd looked at this before going) has something most people would enjoy. The homemade baked goods were mouthwatering. During our 2 and a half hour stay I saw customers come to collect orders, lunch with colleagues, have a hot drink with a newspaper, and work on a laptop. The staff are attentive and funny. Thank you for a great first experience, I will definitely be returning to try something else on the menu.

Showed up at 9 as 8.30 is stated open sign, left with confused staff looking at me try and open the door as doesn't open until 10!!

Stopped by here for breakfast. Great service, great food, and a great atmosphere. A gem of a find. The breakfast was delicious and great value too!

Great cafe cool looking place but Only had 1 sausage and 1 ration of bacon hence the 4 stars

Great place for breakfast & lunch. Run by a brilliant community based project helping people get their lives back after addiction

Great service..The Breakfast Roll highly recommended you can have hash brown egg bacon sausages tomato.... Friendly staff..great atmosphere...

Absolutely brilliant! Definitely a must visit! Great food! Great service! And wow amazing atmosphere! We will absolutely be coming again!

Nice little tucked away café I’d definitely come here again- staff are also very welcoming and the service is efficient

Top service and amazing staff. Very clean and professional

Top place. Friendly staff and a great menu

Absolutely lovely cafe, nice people, lovely place to be, great food. Nice surprise whilst killing time waiting for a windscreen replacement. 109% recommended. Probably the nicest cafe in Birmingham

I love this place! Craig your customer service today was 5 star!

Went for a quick business lunch. The decent size of the club sandwich compared to the price. Had a lime sprizzle, not sure if I am the fan tbh. Don't know why, but it seems everywhere in Birmingham they are adding balsamic sos to the salads.

This is a hidden gem. This is a great place run by a charity and its also connected to the church next door. The food is tasty and good portions. They also make cakes to order. Will make this place a regular.

Fabulous Cafe, warm, friendly staff. Chill.

Great service, amazing food. Honestly loved my visit and will be returning! Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures, but definitely worth trying!

Had our first visit to the rising cafe. It is really nicely done out with friendly staff and very good food. Prices are very reasonable and we really liked the community ethos of the cafe. I hope it goes from strength to strength

Very testi English breakfast 😋 👌

Good food! Good place! Good people! Good cause!

This was a lovely find - a really warm and welcoming atmosphere as we walked in and the place has a pretty cool vibe. The staff are wonderful and the food is great. Loved it and will certainly come here again.

Food service and atmosphere all spot. The work they’re doing at this restaurant is just fantastic. Will be returning again very soon.

We had a fantastic meal all day breakfast and tai green bowl and a wonderful carrot cake slice

What a great place. Had a really nice cinnamon pastry and cappuccino.

Great place, I worked here for 3 hours happily

Well nice sausage, bacon,egg,beans,butter and toast. N a pot of T . Could do with larger breakfast size .don't mind paying xtra for that Staff nice n polite very welcoming..ps I did tip

Friendly staff, lovely environment. The best Melon smoothie 😋 and very tasty Chicken Pesto Ciabatta Sandwich.

I've visited a few times. Always great service and great food. Supporting a good cause, too!

Love the cafe and what it does for the people who work there, the food is fabulous but most of all the people who work there are so nice. I will use the cafe a lot more to help for what it does for the people who need help in their lives. Please go and see for yourself. A shout out to Nicola lovely woman.

Fantastic all-day menu, great food, cool atmosphere 😎

Just happened to pop in here while we were waiting for some work to be done on our car and i am so glad we did. The outside is already pleasant and clean, but it is just a taster for the inside which is so nicely decorated and laid out with reclaimed wood fixtures, rustic lighting and lovely seating. You grab a table (or you can reserve too) and just order at the counter with everything being delivered to you in a good turnaround time, drinks first, food to follow. I ordered their 'Best of British' toastie and the wife ordered a baked potato with Chilli along with a pot of tea for me and a coke for her. The whole lot came to a decent £17 all in. All of the food was fresh, hot, very well presented and very generous. My wife pointed out that the chilli was a little spicier than she would normally choose, but couldn't stop eating it as it was so tasty, and i would have to agree when i grabbed a cheeky forkful. My toastie was very generously filled with sausage, caramelised onion and cheese, a very gooey, sweet, savoury, meaty mess and tasted excellent. Chips provided were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and the side salad on both plates with the balsamic glaze was a lovely contrast. Coke was a standard can, but provided with a lovely tall oice filled glass and the pot of tea was a good 3 cups, again, very generous compared to some places. All of the staff were cheerful, polite and very helpful with the atmosphere in there being quite lively, a lot of chatter, laughter and informal business meetings going on, certainly a popular place. If you are in the area, it is well worth a drop in, even just for a coffee, just to enjoy the surroundings and atmosphere.

A pleasantly surprising find in this area of Birmingham, which is very industrial. It's a charity-based, modern restaurant, with a small but varied menu. The food that we had and the food we saw being served, was and looked delicious. Generous portions - we had chilli rice and chips, which had a home-cooked taste.

It’s so nice to see a cafe outside of the city centre. It’s got all of the friendly, warm, cosy vibe you’d want in a coffee spot. 10/10

Best cafe around here that I have found.. Good quality food cooked to perfection with a very pleasant dining area

This place is fantastic. Amazing food and service.

Fabulous little café. Literally just a 2 minute walk from the Autoglass centre. Exceptional food and service at a very reasonable price. So, if you don't want to sit and wait for your car in the sterile waiting room, get yourself down to the Rising Cafe, where you can get yourself an excellent coffee and breakfast roll, and the time will fly by! Highly recommended ..

It was a lovely place to meet up with friends, we had a lovely time food and service was great, will be going there again.

Absolutely delicious!! Beautiful decor lovely staff. Beef Yorkshire Wrap was literally incredible!

Excellent concept, reasonably priced, good selection, and brilliant service despite being very busy when we arrived.

This was a fab place to hang out and eat while my windscreen was being replaced. Food was great, staff were wonderful, and my peppermint tea was served in the most beautiful little tea pot and cup. Would highly recommend.

10/10 what an amazing place. I went for the club sandwich chicken mayo. I didn't read that it comes with salad and fries... Meaning my eyes were bigger than my belly. It was faultless. The staff were fabulous and everywhere was super clean. 100% coming back here! (Great place to go while waiting for a windscreen replacement at National Windscreens - kudos to the other reviewer for shouting out this place)

Went in with high expectations, delightful average food for high prices, could have just picked something bad on the menu, philly steak

Great atmosphere, cappochino spot on!, great cafe and venue for all your office gatherings. The food is hot and well presented with great service. I can’t wait for my car to be repaired locally again so I can come back 😃

Hidden gem in an obscure part of Birmingham. Very good breakfast and not expensive. Beautifully fitted out as well.

A little gem in Aston. Really lovely inside, good, friendly service, the food and cakes are delicious and well presented. Great for a lunch break or afternoon coffee and cake.

The English breakfast was quite average. Bacon too salty, sausage with a strange consistency. On the plus side, the decor and waiting time. Prices moderate. We came here because of the nearby accommodation.

Really lovely cafe with great choice food and hot and cold drinks. Nice friendly helpful staff. Great atmosphere. A first class dining experience

It has no buisness being called a cafe. Walked in to get a sandwich, it was clear that working men were not welcome. It is not a cafe.

Lovely coffee shop, been served and supervised to high standard by Jodie. Oatmilk coffee is amazing! Very soft in taste. Would return back.

Fantastic cafe visit now! Lovely friendly service very clean. Great range of breakfast options. Gluten free. Vegetarian and vegan. Great pot of tea. Delicious avocado smash.

Arguably the best Cafe I've been to so far. I've been cafe-hopping in London and Birmingham and this Rising Cafe is easily number one on my list and the Casablanca poster is the icing on the cake. Good service for GF and vegans too

An excellent find today, freshly prepared. Nicely packaged takeaway food; lovely ambience. Pleasant and helpful staff. ThanQ

Amazing food, great atmosphere, location is in industrial place, so not great surroundings but for a lunch break really great place!

Order at the counter. Food brought to table. Good value. Good food. Very pleasant atmosphere.

Fabulous cafe, staff lovely… nothing too much trouble. Food great and reasonably priced. Very chilled relaxing atmosphere.

Very friendly staff Very nice food

Lovely hidden gem, walkable from canal towpath and close to nearby MOT centres. Great coffee & food, lovely people. Breakfast seems to be very popular. The club sandwich and fries are great.

What a gem! I stumbled across the rising cafe yesterday while looking for a parking spot. Popped in to find a really friendly and relaxed cafe, where I ended up working for several hours, enjoyed a lovely breakfast and several drinks. The added bonus is the street parking nearby is currently free (Aug 2023) which was a bonus!!

Great place to pass the time whilst car in for windscreen at Autoglass. Lovely full English, excellent service

What a gem. Hidden amongst industrial units. The food is excellent, presented well, very friendly staff who go the extra mile. I can not speak highly enough of this restaurant, worth going out your way to visit.

Lovely staff, great choice of food and relaxing atmosphere

Rising Cafe was a wonderful find when we were walking the Birmingham canals,being close to one of the junctions. It's a shining star, yet surrounded by commercial premises. We had excellent Thai Green chicken soup, tasty tray bakes good coffee. All first class, in very well appointed premises and very reasonably priced.

Quiet, tucked away cafe with wholesome servings, good coffee and great ambience. Food could do with some more flavour but great overall. Venue also supports Betel charity if you needed another reason to visit.

Really good menu with a great selection of delicious food ranging from full English breakfast to chicken and salads. The food is delicious, well presented and good portions too! Extremely recommended. It's a hidden 💎

Friendly welcoming staff. Food cooked to perfection and well presented, will definitely be back to try the pancakes!

Found my new breakfast spot. Popped in whilst car was been serviced around the corner. Ordered the full English, couldn’t fault it. Friendly staff and all round nice place to eat.

The Rising Caffy is a lovely place to visit good food Great service very polite Staff well worth a visit

Visited for the first time this week, following the Rising Cafe catering a work event; highly recommend. Visiting the cafe did not disappoint - great food, lovely atmosphere and perfect vanilla iced latte.

We have used Rising Cafe for our catering services for large meetings since it has opened and the food has always been amazing and loved by all. We recently held a meeting at the cafe, the service matched the standard of food and we had lots of variety to choose from. We would highly recommend the Rising Cafe for any of your catering needs, or for some breakfast/lunch if you are in the area.

What a find, I was having my rear screen fixed on my car at auto glass up the road and had to wait so I walked the 50yrds to the Rising cafe. What a great little cafe, well it’s more than a cafe it’s a charity run business that does great work for the rehabilitation of people that have fallen on hard times and fallen out of the system. The place is immaculate in presentation and the food is outstanding, if this cafe was in the centre of Birmingham you would be lucky to get a seat in a sunny day. Sitting out side in the sun was fantastic I had a sausage and bacon sandwich and a coffee followed by 2 x cokes in the 2 hours I spent there waiting for car repair. I chatted with the workers their who will live to tell you about the good work the cafe and the charity have done for them and helped them get their lives back on track a truly wonderful place. I highly recommend this cafe for its location people and food, if visiting Birmingham drop in for breakfast and leave your car in the street and walk into Birmingham the cost of breakfast would cover your days parking fee in a city center car park and you will also be doing some good for the charity. The next time I visit Brum and it sunny I will definitely be parking up in Chester street for breakfast at the rising cafe and walking into Birmingham. 100% highly recommend this place.

Always a great place. The staff are amazing. So friendly, helpful and professional. The food is of good quality and reasonably priced. I go here at least 4/6 maybe more times a month. Excellent as a meeting venue. 11/10.

Loved it! Very friendly and inviting. Great food/coffee, good portion size, and very reasonable prices. I will definitely go back.

Lovely and cosy place, food was great and staff were amazing

On the off chance of looking for a brew, we stumbled across this gem of a Cafe. We both had the vegetarian breakfast with fried egg, it was delicious and my wife left some (I helped of course 🤣). If you’re in the area, you must come to this place. Chesterfield sofa’s, plenty of tables and chairs. The staff are kind and welcoming and serve to the table. Love it!

We have dined in this cafe on many of occasion and each time the service has been fabulous and the food is delicious! I love the quirky tea pots and tea cups, absolute bonus. My favourite dish is the Best of British toastie!!! But everything I have eaten has been exceptional and the portions are very big (don’t worry if you can’t finish your meal, the wonderful staff can provide take out boxes). The cakes, OMG where do I start? Wide range and all scrumptious!!! Highly recommend visiting and I will 100% be returning on a regular.

Came to Rising Cafe this morning whilst my car was getting fixed at the local Autoglass and my experience at the Cafe makes me wish my car needed fixing more often! Delicious vegan breakfast, comfortable atmosphere, beautiful decor, perfect ambient music, plenty of plugs/charging points and well designed tables & chairs to work from. Thanks team!

Brilliant service, fantastic food. Highly recommended😊😋

Attended an evening event for Black women with the Lounge. Caribbean food served was curry chicken, jerk chicken, and rice peas. I was pleasantly surprised tasted great. The drinks options need increasing, and dessert options were lovely. Staff were friendly. Lovely space.

Amazing friendly Staff. Lovely food and atmosphere. Thank you so much. 💓 loved will be back for More x

Gorgeous venue for event. Nice food and dietary options

I've visited Rising Cafe on a number of occasions (work and social) and I have never been disappointed with the food or the service. Very friendly staff and ample portions served. Tried the Teriyaki Bowl today.... Very tasty 😋

Very well laid out inside with plenty of room for a wheelchair user. Food excellent at a good price. Staff friendly.

Proper breakfast in relaxed and upmarket surroundings.

This place is an absolute hidden gem! Food is fantastic and the staff are lovely. It's more like a Bistro than a Cafe.

Great atmosphere with unique trendy interior. Great place to eat and relax with friends and family. The food was good too, even though it was a little pricey, it was delicious. Pot of tea only £1.20. HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU VISIT. YOU'LL ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE.

We’ve been working next door and the atmosphere, staff and food here is amazing!! Everyone’s so nice and helpful and the food is stunning, would highly recommend the buttermilk chicken burger and the halloumi fries 🤩 The baked goods are also amazing, fresh and innovative!

Well what a lovely surprise little gem

Good food and good costumer service !

Great customer service, nothing too much trouble, clean and inviting, will definitely dine there again

Great tasting food and atmosphere, food took a while to come out which was a shame but it was delicious.

Inviting atmosphere, friendly staff and the food/drinks are always delicious

Treated my colleagues to a lovely Christmas Dinner. The portions were massive, food was yum and staff were lovely. Thank you Ainoa.

Very nice cafe with great atmosphere just not cheap...

Great service the cafe and toilets were spotless and the breakfast was tasty and piping hot washed down with a large pot of tea 10 out of 10
