I like a breakfast or a brunch and also visit new (to me) venues. I was therefore keen to visit the Bournville Cafe after a very positive recommendation from a couple of my friends.

The two overcooked eggs had already been put into the plate at this point. Is there a mushroom shortage Or does a single sliced mushroom now constitute as a...
Read moreThink the prices are ridiculous a large breakfast only consists of one piece of bacon and one egg also no bread and butter and have to pay a pound for a coffee to taking 5.90 is disgusting.
