Patrons rave about the ample vegan options, with Tess S. highlighting the delicious food and generous portions. Renowned for its cozy and rustic atmosphere, Kanteen is the perfect haven for those seeking a relaxed dining experience.

Been here in the evenings when it’s serving tapas so thought I would give the place a late breakfast. Really good quality produce used, ciabatta bread really nice. Good section of refrigerated drinks. And the white chocolate and raspberry cookie was out of this world.

Great place for a quiet meeting with clients. The apple and cinnamon cake is definitely worth the travel to Birmingham for. Seems like a bit of a hidden gem in the Custard Factory and just what I needed as a quiet but pleasant meeting space.

We ordered the Turkish bowl and oatmeal. Both were delicious. Staff were super friendly. Would definitely come back. Opening times could be a little longer into the afternoon. All in all a good place.

Just popped in after doing some Christmas shopping, the atmosphere was great as a place to recharge after running around. I had focaccia with beef and cheese as well as loaded croissant and a festive coffee. The food was delicious, the staff informative and helpful with what I needed, the whole experience was brilliant. Thank you guys!
