Our favourite spot in Edgbaston for pizza, and the go-to for dinner and drinks with friends.

Digbeth
Spend a full day in one of Birmingham’s most creative areas (we love a coffee at The Bakehouse and vintage shopping at Red Brick Market).

Ocha
Hurst St.
The best matcha we’ve found in the city, and you definitely need to try the matcha banana bread.

Bordesley St.
A games and entertainment venue with bowling, pool, and arcade games, ideal for rainy days or evenings out.

Be Pilates
Hockley

Edgbaston
A nature walk through the gardens, finished off with a coffee or lunch from the on-site Medicine Bakery - our idea of a perfect afternoon.

An all girls run club based in Selly Oak with weekly meet-ups
