  “Disappointing experience. I came in expecting a nice, classic British breakfast, but the food was quite greasy and cold by the time it got to the table. The service felt incredibly rushed, and the staff weren't particularly welcoming or attentive. It is a legendary spot, but the quality of the food and hospitality just didn't live up to the reputation.”

  “Might just be the best proper caf I've been to! Very friendly service, from the two gentlemen at the front, to the kind lady who brought me my food. Reasonable prices and good food. Had a little chat with what I assume are the owner(s), talked about the apprentice of course and they also told me the place has been around for more than 60 years. That's how you know it's proper! 10/10”

  “I came here for lunch in order to visit the original café of shame as soon on the Apprentice. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the service as amazing, and the food and drink were brilliant. I would recommend this place to other Apprentice fans.”

  “The staff make this place. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The service was good but is wagamama style and you get your food as it comes when it comes. Food is traditional and well made.”

  “Loving the Apprentice, I have wanted to visit The Bridge almost since day one. Today was the day, and it lived up to all my expectations and more. The staff were so kind, patient and welcoming, putting up with my excited Brummie prattle, even posing for photos, as well as helping in taking them. Loved the little bits of insider knowledge, which made it such a wonderfu, magical visit. I cannot thank Gerry and Frank and the lady assistant (sorry, I didn't catch her name) enough, it was a dream come true! The bacon and sausage sandwiches were perfect, although I was almost to excited to eat. Mug of tea perfection! I also have, what will be a much treasure Bridge Cafe mug. Thank you again”

  “As a fan of the UK TV show the Apprentice I have always wondered if the Bridge Cafe was even real or just for TV. To my pleasure I can tell you that it really does exist! My even bigger pleasure is that it’s exactly the same as TV and the food is amazing. The owners have had it for more than 50 years and they still love what they do. It really shows because the food was a proper English breakfast and it was served piping hot with a nice cup of tea. It’s exactly as it says on the tin with good food and good service. What’s not to love? It was so good I even bought a mug from them as a wonderful memory. Even if you have not seen the TV show you need to go……… Highly recommend to you all 😎”

  “If you imagine a traditional greasy spoon cafe this is what you would get. However the food is not greasy it's perfectly cooked, the menu is simple with all your cafe favourites traditional breakfasts, sausage, egg & chips etc The owners are wonderful very friendly Yes it's the cafe from the apprentice but it's so much more then that one of the best cafes I've been to in a while perfect in every way if your looking for a artisan posh style cafe go somewhere else if your looking for somewhere with good food, drinks and service clean and tidy with high standards then the bridge cafe is a must.”
