Tolkien Restaurant in Birmingham

Lovely staff, and beautiful food

Rang order in for food only to have someone have a go at me for ordering, poor customer service, won't use again

Well where to start. I asked for a baguette and got a hot dog roll. Eggs left an appalling taste in my mouth. Bacon was cooked with what looked and tasted like old oil and was fatty as anything. Women seemed moody and was not welcoming at all. Also coffee tasted cheap and got thrown away. Better off going to greggs.

So I went here ordered the builders breakfast for 5.95 not too bad price but then ordered poached egg on toast with mushrooms and hash browns and a tea they charged £7 so total being £13 then they bought it out well first off her fingers was in my food nothing was good it was undercooked sloppy eggs cheapest tea and coffee you could buy ( but using Nescafé tubs that’s called false advertising ) everything tasted of cheap reheated old oil that two hours later and still can taste it.their full prices are not shown and the woman was covered in dog hair and god knows what else hair not tied up. now they are polite but cmon people that doesn’t cost a thing but certainly did today because I felt that is what I paid for it’s not very clean and to be honest an embarrassment to their trade I would advise not to go here another customer left half her food while we was their too and too top it off everything was cold including the cafe itself change the game or quit ladies people deserve better I would put no stars but got to to review.

Why would you be closed on a Sunday.Only cafe I know which does this. Get with the times please it's 2021....

I've had a SOS and egg sandwich which was nice but once I went in for a SOS and egg baguette and because I have it to take away I didn't realise untill I had driven away, when I opened it that they had put it in a bun, like a hot dog bun. Not good atall

great place for lunch! i had a great tuna and sweetcorn sandwich here! and its fascinating to know it was just round the corner from where the hobbit was written!! staff was great, but i think the shop could do with some updating though!

Nice old place...breakfast and coffee.But no masks as must be..I bought chips for my child and it was expired 3 months ago,must be used till March.It is sad.And lady who sale there had so hard cough 😷 she must be with face mask.It is really sad to write this but we need to be good and safe with customers because it is very dangerous to cough near children 👶.Wish the best..because it is really nice place and really nice stuff ,must be more serious.

I initially left a poor review when I was in a “lack of bacon sandwich depression” induced rage (it’s a serious condition) due to the card machine not working.In hindsight that was really harsh - this cafe is great. It sounds like their broadband issues have been sorted, so they’ll accept cards again. I’ve recently found out that their food is available on at least one widely known takeaway app, which helps the situation too.Exactly what you’d expect - simple, well cooked breakfast good for a reasonable price.Will be back as soon as possible, although hopefully not too often as they’d have to start rolling me in the door.

great refreshments after a nice walk round Mosley bog ,shame it could not keep it's original name The hobbit .staff or owners where very welcoming. worth a visit.
