Cosy Club

Address: 33 Bennetts Hill, Birmingham B2 5SN

Featured review: “Beautiful decor! I was attracted to this place due to the high number of positive reviews. I ordered "An elegant brunch" which looked very messy but was delicious! My partner ordered the pancakes which were also very good. The chocolate milkshake though was very strange as it was very runny (I expect milkshakes to be thick) and it was room temperature. Excellent service too!”
