Review of Krispy Kreme

28 May 08, 15:46

Why is everyone queuing? 2*

There is always a massive queue at this counter, which I suppose is due to the fact that the Krispy Kreme is still quite a novelty in this country. They are tastey but at £1.20 each, and half your recommended calorie intake for the day is it really worth it? I think if you buy in bulk and share with friends it makes sense otherwise I think there are better ways to satisfy your sugar cravings.

Review of Philpotts Quality Sandwiches

28 May 08, 14:09

THE BEST SANDWICHES 5*

Philpotts is by far the best quality takeaway lunch you could hope for! If you like food philpotts is like a treasure trove of treats. Due to the regeneration of the edgbaston shopping centre (e.g. it has been demolished) this branch has moved to broadway plaza and it's definitely worth the walk!

Philpotts is a chain (there are 4 branches in Brum) but it's small enough to feel special. There is a selection of pre prepared sandwiches and salads or you can have it prepared infront of you to your EXACT specifications (from the type of bread, butter or olive oil, fillings, seasonings, garnish etc. etc. ) There is a regular menu + daily specials.

If you facy something hot they have a carvery counter serving perfect hot sandwiches and wraps and they also do soups, although I think this is one thing that Eat does better, Philpotts soup is a little salty.

They also sell fruit, tyrells crisps and cakes.

Review of Po Boys

29 Apr 08, 11:38

Go for lunch 4*

Po Boys is a great independent café. Downstairs they sell a selection of hot drinks, bottled juices, sandwiches and cakes and the seating upstairs is lovely. It’s not normally too busy and there’s normally good music playing. Large windows look out onto the street below and flood the place with light.

Review of Evergreen

Greasy 2*

This is the only takeaway on the main Moseley High Street so it's convenient but it's a bit greasy. I think you will be disappointed.

Review of Zaffs Food Diner

23 Apr 08, 16:42

Hostile atmosphere 1*

I went to Zaffs with a group of friends after a night out and we were attacked by what I assume were a gang of regulars. The staff finally intervened when they realised that one of my friends had a serious head wound and there was blood all over their floor. Stay away.
