Faculty is THE go to coffee shop in Brum. Staff are friendly , coffee is great quality and circulating roasters, but the CAKE is why you want to go. Out of this world, and LOADS of Vegan options !

Mona

Very nice V60 ! :) open earlier than other coffee shops near new street station which makes it possible to take a coffee on ur way to ur day business trip!;)

B

With the new staff hired for the bakery , you can find more options to go with coffee . Guinness cake and hazelnut chocolate puff... were good.

Ian B

These guys are awesome. It's nice to go somewhere where the staff are so enthusiastic about their brews :) highly recommend.

Oliver Magro

Try their V60 coffee here, and if you fancy a bite for breakfast their breakfast brioches are a great start to your day.

B

Coffee is always good. But there seems to be a change in the pastry options. There aren’t those delicious tarts anymore.

Sonia Louro

Cinnamon Danish and the flat white ????????????.....and check out the cakes first thing!

Coffee is excellent, gorgeous selection of cakes !

Conveniently located just meters away from New Street. The place however is small and opens late , coffee tastes plain, and tables are uncomfortable. The staff is friendly and the decoration is nice.
