About Molly's Cafe

On The Green in Birmingham, Molly's Cafe covers breakfast, coffee, and sandwiches under one roof. The menu runs from a big breakfast to a tuna baguette filled with red onion and peppers, with bread served toasted and drinks poured from an automatic machine. Orders are placed and paid for at the counter, and the cafe takes walk-ins rather than bookings. High chairs are on hand for families with young children. It opens daily, daytime hours only.

Customer Review Summary

The big breakfast is the dish most reviewers keep coming back to, once praised for its quick turnaround and generous portions, but the recurring complaint now centers on the sausages: several diners note the menu still lists Lashford sausages while the kitchen actually serves a cheaper substitute, a change many attribute to new management. Close behind, opinions split on freshness and care: some highlight the Irish breakfast and a version made without tinned mushrooms, while others describe overcooked, greasy plates, canned tomatoes dumped straight onto a side order, and a tuna baguette missing its advertised onion and pepper. Service issues recur as well, including long waits at the counter, missing items like black pudding or fried bread, and a pricing discrepancy on a takeaway baguette that staff could not explain. One reviewer describes filthy tables and a flickering light despite a claimed five star hygiene rating. Even so, a few still call the staff lovely and accommodating near closing time, and one diner reports the food served promptly on a clean table, fully satisfied with the meal.

    “If I could give less than 1 star on this place I would. Food is poorly cooked and tastes very cheap. Service is intimidating. Made to feel stupid for requesting something. Totally different to the last owners. Makes me sad as it's my local café.”

    “Mouldy bread and found a small hair, never even bothered to take a picture as I felt ill from seeing it so I threw it away”
  • Darren Lashford
    “Despite the advertisements across the Menu. Lashford Sausages ARE NOT on sale at the premises. This is a Food Fraud offence so please do not associate our brand with the Cafe.”

    “The food itself was nice, the bacon was lovely & thick. However the sausages were not lashfords. I asked the server to check with the kitchen and confirmed they were not lashfords. The sausages were cheap, really, really cheap. Shouldn’t be advertised on the menu. The server was polite & friendly. No music needs some ambience. I would go again if the sausages were those advertised”

    “Ordered a tuna baguette to take out . Price on the menu I was handed by staff and price also on board above till said £3.95 . I was charged £4.50 . So pointed out the menu states £3.95 . I was told sorry that’s the price the till says . I get it’s only 55p difference but besides the point .and if they advertising false prices on a baguette I imagine the price is wrong on other items and could total a lot more than 55p . Not really an excuse that the till says different . Also on menu and board says baguette comes with red onion and peppers. Mine was just tuna . Very boring and tasteless. First time using cafe and doubt I’ll go again .”
