About morridge oats + coffee

Customer Review Summary
Porridge is what most reviewers come for, with the honey, sultana and cinnamon bowl singled out more than once and another diner praising a peanut butter, berry compote and seeds version. Close behind are the overnight oats, including a mango one with passionfruit and roasted apricots, and a vegan reviewer who found the plant milk version with mango sauce, peaches and coconut slices a reason to seek the place out. Coffee, including a flat white, draws steady praise, and one reviewer says an Australian friend called it the best she had had in the UK. Reviewers also mention friendly service, comfy seating, a hanging chair upstairs and window seats for people watching. The one complaint is cost: a reviewer says iced coffee and plant milk are charged extra, which made the coffee a bit expensive. Several note it gets busy, with one saying Saturdays are packed and another suggesting coming early. A bowl of porridge that left one diner full for hours is a typical account.

“Easily my favourite place in central Birmingham for a chilled sit down- it can get busy so would recommend coming early. The coffee is nice and the service is friendly. You really get transported to somewhere else when you come here”

“Was delighted to find this cute cafe in Birmingham ☕ Great coffee, fresh and vibrant porridges and overnight oats and great people. I love the decor and relaxed atmosphere - the upstairs has really cute seating with comfy sofas, communal benches and a hanging chair by the window! I had the mango overnight oats with passionfruit and roasted apricots, which was so tasty. Skip your hotel breakfast and come here instead, you won't be disappointed”

“I am vegan, so I found this place on Google maps. I was not disappointed, fanatic café dedicated to oats. I had the over night oats which is made with plant milk. It was really nice on a mango sauce with peaches and coconut slices. Highly recommended for vegans.”
