The Great Escape Café in Birmingham

First time coming here and the atmosphere is so nice and the decor was so unique but beautiful. Thee staff were so lovely and patient with our long order, and the food was a decent price and amazing quality, all of my family thoroughly enjoyed our meals and the experience we had here. 100 percent recommend and 100 percent coming back here again

Fresh and well prepared food good portions lovely service

Nice place to eat, Great vegetarian breakfast.

Under new management. Two nice ladies running it now.

Love the milkshakes and the jacket potato. Great service. Wonderful service. There are board games for you to play if you get board. Great family place

Great breakfast one of the best in Birmingham.

Gem of a little cafe tucked away! Very friendly service, with a great quality full breakfast that comes with a drink, which was scrumptious!

Great all round! Nice decor, lovely food and good value for money. Definitely recommend 👍🏻

Breakfast was tasty and just the right portion , had a large breakfast that came with a free cup of tea or coffee. such a nice chilled vibe inside and service with a smile so i will defo return😀

One of the best breakfast places in Brum!

Food bad yasso, this means really good to a high spec here,cater for vegetarian too made me feel welcome aswell... I have moved away now but will travel to eat here wherever in the city I am, it's that good...xxxx

Welcoming and cosy atmosphere. The decor here is very nice. It's classic decor with lot of historic things. It's perfect spot to grab coffee or meal. Recently had big breakfast and it really hit the spot. Plus service is always so friendly and welcoming. There are two separate toilets facilities for ladies and gents. Parking is an issue. But you can park on side roads.

Wouldn't say it's high quality food unfortunately for the price I can Cook at home 😊 lol that being said it's nice atmosphere and location the girls are sweet when it comes to service and the older lady always smiling

Such a beautiful place to go to eat and relax in there, very tasty food well presented and quickly served,the staff are very helpful and dynamic, the design inspired from the prison opposite the Cafe which is a great idea. 😊

Staff were unfriendly and forgot half our order. Food was mediocre and not the best quality. I felt unwell after eating there.

Food was very nice and and the layout of the place is fun and quirky. Recommended.

Lovely place for coffee, directly opposite the prison. Recommended.

Very welcoming,food lovely and defo value for money. Service excellent only downside is you come out of there smelling of fried food, and it was cold in there as the door is constantly open ...

Its alright, get what you pay for, nothing spectacular but its great and you get served quickly!

Menu is amazing, I haven't tasted food. But unfortunately the staff put me off .Customer skills very poorly.Staff are very rude behaved way of dealing with a person totally out of order..I dont recommend this place.Alot of bad vibes.

Honestly this place offers amazing halal english breakfast, the service is friendly and helpful and such a great experience all together!

Preety location, aesthetically pleasing and clean. Good was fab, there was a problem with my order and the staff were happy to replace my food as soon as I mentioned it. Will 100% return here :)

I Was extremely impressed with this cafe. They have a great menu with a nice variety of options. The place is clean, staff were attentive to all my needs and i had & awesome breakfast. Highly recommend this place without a doubt.

Best halal breakfast in the area by far staff was lovely i had the full english and my wife had the omelette breakfst was amazing beautiful decor and child friendly hiden gem oppiste winson green prison parkings a issue but the have side roads where you can park overalls rating 10/10 must try

Cant believe this place!.. Absolutely stunning setting and PHENOMENAL FOOD.. MA SHA ALLAH!

Never heard of this place, a friend found it and wanted to visit. Upon entering you notice the funkiness of the place, where it wasn't robotic in a sense of everything had to look the same, and I loved that! The creative design and decor reallyakes the place Pop! From suitcase on the wall to fun childhood games to play such as connect 4, monopoly and more. This seemed like a great place to relax straight off the bat. We were told to take a seat anywhere and when ready to order come to the counter. The tables have menus under the glass tops so you're never without a menu (as some restaurants take them away). I decided to purchase the full English and my friend had a sandwich, but when our plates came out the kitchen, I was not disappointed! It looked amazing, so good my friend was in regret as to what he ordered, the quality was very evident, the food was prepared with care and the presentation was spot on. When eating the food, it was crunchy where needed and juicy where needed, the staff were lovely too. They have toilets on premises too, always a bonus, male and female split. Overall, really enjoyed this place and would revisit, 100%. Only reason for 4 stars is, if the quality and service remains the same the next time, it's a 5 no doubt! This place is also halal, great that it caters to all. PS: love the name, situated right opposite a prison, this really is 'The Great Escape'.

Amazing service with Amazing staff would definitely be going back

Been to this place once, i really loved the food and the service, also the prices are fair. Lovely and friendly people surely will visit again.

Thought I'd give this place a try as I was passing by. Cafe was empty. Approx 4 to 5 staff were in. After entering I was told to sit anywhere, menus stuck on the table. Lady said 'ill come over'. After waiting at table for 15 minutes, looking around at the waitresses but they failed to even notice me trying to get their attention. I decided to walk out. Communication is poor, no clear instructions to inform customers to order at till which I find strange given the amount of staff that were in the cafe at the time. Lack of parking is an issue as well. Won't be coming back in a hurry.

Little get together for my nephews 30th. Loved every minute. Xxx

Beautiful decor, lovely customer service and great fresh food!

Visited the great escape cafe which was recommended by a friend. Nice variety to choose from on the menu and drinks selection Food was served promptly and tasted amazing!! service was brilliant and staff were very welcoming. We were asked if everything was ok and felt very comfortable. Decor there was beautiful and environment was spotless & clean. We Will definitely be visiting again 😊

Somewhere to take my son and myself after visiting HMP, will be using regularly to do something after visits to ease back into home life after visits.

Nice place to have a brew or a main meal too.

The food was really good here, the staff was ok but didn’t come over to see if everything was ok and the other thing was that we went first thing in the morning and the tables and floor wasn’t clean so that could do with some improvement☺️

Really lovely place and tasty food

thanks guys!! friendly and relaxed cafe...nice place to visit in Winson Green!!

We met friends to do Edgbaston parkrun and then brought here for breakfast after. Was a fab cafe with games to play with lots of memorabilia. Didn't have much on the menu for me being vegan however they did do me something and had alternative milk for a nice latte. Was a fab little place and will definitely come along again as the staff were super friendly 👍

Great Taste. Lovely staff. Nice decorated for dining in

Very lovely breakfast which was beautifully cooked. The decor was also very cozy. My husband and I really enjoyed our morning here and the staff were very kind and attentive! Will definitely be visiting this local bistro often!
