Quick info
About Flamingo Coffee Shop & Restaurant
Flamingo Coffee Shop & Restaurant serves East African food in a shisha lounge at 83 Villa Rd in Birmingham. The lighting is dim, and the lounge format brings the meal and the shisha together under one roof. The kitchen opens after Fajr, so early-morning guests can eat once the dawn prayer has finished. The business runs as both a coffee shop and a restaurant, and East African dishes make up the food side of what it offers.
