  “"Something tells me we're not in Harborne anymore". Good prices and good, straightforward, food. Clearly Kath is doing a lot right - cafe full on a Saturday morning, families, white van men, grandparents with grandchildren and... Me (6.25% Irish). Google reminded me its been nine years since my holiday in Ireland - and thus nine years since my last Full Irish. Now rectified. I'll be back for an Irish Dinner.”

  “Too much reheating the food causes sogginess, weird after taste and leaking. I do not strongly suggest to reheat the burger, as it has negatively took an impact. Please make food fresh for UberEats/all orders to avoid mishandling your menu especially when dining in. However, as have firstly discovered Irish food, the Irish coddle seemed to be more of my favourite then the rest of your menu, especially how less of a hassle it doesn’t need to taste fresh when you have reheated the food anyway. Please DO NOT reheat the burger! This is not otherwise “fresh” upon “quality” as evidently have shown through here. Packaging is not also suitable for food delivery, hence ripping apart easily etc Advise to keep on improving and showcase standardisation.”

  “More than just a cafe, 'Kath's Cafe' is a hub for the local community of Maypole, Druids Heath and surrounding areas. For me personally, I have been able to find new friends who I chat to daily, and since I retired, I go there every day apart from Tuesday when it's closed. Kath and her staff are not only great cooks but also lovely people. Over the years, I've eaten at many cafes in Birmingham, but I can honestly say non compared to 'Kath's Cafe' for taste, presentation, portions, and menu variety. I became a vegetarian about 3 years ago, and I have to say there's a good choice of veggie options on the menu. My favourite at the moment is a Vegetarian Roast meal which includes:- Roasties (crispy), Peas, Carrots, Sweetcorn, Mushrooms, Linda McCartney Sausages, Yorkshire Pudding (delicious), bread & butter plus decaffeinated tea (see photo). Previous favourites of mine have been a vegetarian omelette, which included spinach, sweetcorn, mushrooms & and peppers. For a quick snack, I love the cheese & and mushroom panini. The toasted sarnie's are also delicious. Although I'm a vegetarian now I know the meat meals were also excellent. Good car parking. A baby seat is also available. There's also a couple of tables outside which can accommodate 6 people. It tends to get busy Friday to Sunday, especially when there's a lot of Uber orders, but it's well worth the wait. There is a toilet in the cafe. One more thing which is better than a lot of other cafes is the opening times which is earlier than a lot - 7am - last orders at 2:30pm Open every day apart from Tuesday. I want to thank Kath for the cafe and maintaining such high-quality standards. Since I last wrote on this review, Kath has added to the menu, which I'm especially pleased being a vegetarian. Qourn chilli with either rice or chips. Vegetarian Lasagne with salad (I usually have it with chips instead) No meat chicken with veg. And the latest is delight Kath as produced is Detox Soup with nice pepper taste. Another vegan special added to the menu today 'Vegan chicken curry & rice. Vegan Spaghetti bolognese. Spinach & Chickpea Lentil Dhaal. Delicious. I wrote this review in 2022, and so now, in 2025, some of the vegan meals may have changed.”
