boston tea party has to be one of the best tea/coffee shops in birmingham. originally started in bristol the brand has spread across the south west withbirminghambeing one of the first of it's cafes outside of this region. they are a family owned company who realise that "being bigger is not always better & we want to remain a cafe to be discovered, recommended & returned to".
thebirminghamcafe can be found at the very top of corporation street, which can be a bit of a walk to get to but is well worth the time of foot. it's also round the corner from eastside city park so is a great place to pop into beforehand. offering, in my opinion, one of the best cooked breakfasts inbirmingham(the west country breakfast) which is available all day for a great price of just £6.95. it also has a fantastic cake selection freshly baked on site which my housemate, a keen baker, loves and recommends.
the drink offering is as you would expect up to scratch too offering a wide range of fantastic loose leaf teas in individual teapots with strainers as a nice touch. don't be fooled however, they do offer coffee, soft drinks and even beers and ales.
