About Blank Street Coffee

On New Street in Birmingham, Blank Street Coffee runs as a counter-service coffee shop with no reservations needed. Baristas take and explain orders at the counter, and a queue at the door is common. The menu spans 56 items, with the latte as a mainstay and matcha served in varieties including white chocolate, lemon loaf, and strawberry shortcake. A blondie rounds out the bakery case. The shop opens daily and welcomes dogs. Patrons with NHS credentials receive a 20 percent discount on their order.

Customer Review Summary

Matcha draws the most praise. One reviewer calls the white chocolate matcha a regular treat for cheering up or celebrating, and another finds the matcha smoother and better balanced than elsewhere. A first-time matcha drinker credits a knowledgeable barista who explained the flavours. The blondie is called super tasty, and the brownie surprisingly good. Staff are the other consistent thread, described as friendly, welcoming, helpful and funny, with several reviewers thanking the individual team members who looked after them. Drinks and pastries draw some criticism. One reviewer found the lemon loaf and strawberry shortcake matchas very sweet even when asked for no sugar, with the flavouring overpowering the matcha. Another could not taste the vanilla, honey and cinnamon in the daydream latte, and found the croissants and pain au chocolat dry and the cinnamon bun a tad dry. One group was handed a free pastry along with their order.
