Really delighted with the work that James did sorting out electrics in my garden including uplighters for trees, a time controlled socket for a fountain, security lights and various sockets/wifi boosters. Friendly, efficient, reliable, always smart and very well organised. I would recommend him.

Excellent service, James delivered a fast, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient service! Gave great advice on what charger would best suit my needs and really took the time during the install to explain everything I needed to know about the product and APP. Highly professional, tidy and efficient. Cannot fault the service I have received highly recommend to anyone considering an electric vehicle home charger!

James installed some down lights to my garage and spot lights all around my house to provide extra lighting on the dark mornings. James has completed all work to an excellent standard and I am very happy with the finished result. James is very professional, friendly and reliable. Highly recommended!

Highly recommended, 10 out of 10 service. Recently had an EV charger installed at our property, with Wired by James looking after all the finer details including contacting the local electrical board to confirm the works due to be undertaken. Very helpful with assisting in choosing the right EV charger that would work for me, can not fault the whole process from start to finish. Installation was arranged at a moment's notice due to delivery of my vehicle happening sooner than expected. Extremely satisfied with the overall installation and the BG Sync charger installed is perfect for what I needed, very simple to use with a great App that gives me full control of the charger and easy to view the history of each charge along with pricing. Great service and a great guy. Can not thank you enough James. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking an EV charger installation.

LOVE this café! Myself and my partner moved to the area a year ago and have constantly come back to this café, we love it. We're both veggie and there's a fab range of veggie options which are all super tasty. Great savoury and sweet options, particularly love the pistachio pancakes and french toast. Staff are really lovely too and it's always a nice vibe.

Nice small cafe in Bearwood. Ordered the Egg Royale which consisted of smoked salmon, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce on sourdough bread. Bit on the pricey side but the presentation was excellent and food was 10/10. Eggs were cooked to perfection with a lovely runny yolk. Sauce complimented the salmon extremely well and sourdough bread was toasted just right. Loved the little extras like the radishes and greens on top. Also ordered a side of spicy beans which tastes great and goes with any dish.

I visited here two weeks ago. Prior to coming, I messaged the cafe via instagram to find out if they catered for gluten free and diary intolerances (not the same person). To my delight they said they did and so decided to pay them a visit. When you step inside here, you cannot believe you are in bearwood. It has a lovely atmosphere. We were there for a friend’s catchup, but there was also a mother and child sat nearby and also couples. The cafe does not take bookings and so be prepared there may be a wait. We were fortunate enough to find a table. The cafe were very accommodating for me and my friend who is gluten free, and were great at suggesting substitutions. I ordered the sweetcorn fritters and asked for the cheese to be removed as I have a diary intolerance. They asked if I wanted more avocado instead and I declined, instead opted for more pomegranate. (I think there was already half an avocado on the dish anyway). I also ordered a side portion of turka beans. The food was generally yummy. The sweetcorn dish was really tasty. I was also looking forward to the turka beans, which didn’t go with my meal, but had them on the side and in fairness was a large sized portion. I didn’t really enjoy them though as they put hard crunchy chickpeas in throughout. I still ate them as the side dish was expensive, and just picked the chickpeas out and gave to my friend! The above lunch cost me over £20 hence the 4* rating. Food was nice, but feel the price was a bit steep for a small cafe in bearwood. Or has everything just gone mega expensive?!

A little Cousy gem! Wanted brunch like food on our way home, while looking for chai this little gem came up on my search 🔍 we went there and I got my chai but also got my vegan version of no bread burger, which is what exactly I wanted! Lovely presentation and flavourful food 🥘 🙏

After trying six other Electrical companies I came across MJB Electrical Company. The reviews were amazing to good to believe. But I gave them a ring. Mugib arrived same day gave me initial quotation for EIC report. £175 cheaper than the only other quotation I received. The following afternoon that turned up on time carried out inspection at the same time repairing my alarm. He then quoted for all repairs and 14 way board. Turning up on time as agreed 2 days later he carried out all the repairs plus extras my wife added. He did all this in one visit he had all the parts to hand. No going back to stockists. He explained everything to me as he went along. Since carrying out the work I have received all paperwork. He as got in touch to make sure no problems with the work. My apologies to all other people who left reviews they were right his work is excellent. I could not recommend him enough and will if needs arrive use him again. Thank you Mujib.

You need to visit the Happy Coffee Man van for coffee, tea, goodies and a smile. We have just moved back into the area and Warley Woods is our new local run/walk spot. We have visited for coffee, tea and goodies a couple of times already. What a fantastic innovation in the Woods. We can’t believe our luck. Go on treat yourself when passing by. You will improve your day! The owner and partner are fab folks. (Might be slightly biased here as have known the owner from childhood & sense of good humour and kind vibes have stayed with him since. But my partner being a newbie to living in the area can vouch too). Looking forward to our next visit!

If you are out for a walk in Warley Woods, or around the Bearwood area, you have to stop by the orange van to see the Happy Coffee Man. A big menu of drinks with absolutely superb coffee, delicious freshly baked cakes and pastries but most of all, friendly warm service. The staff are absolutely lovely and great to have a chat with. I visit every week with our mum's and babies walk group and they always serve everyone so quickly and efficiently. Highly recommend!

I love visiting the woods with the family, especially when the Happy Coffee Man is there too! Gorgeous selection of handmade cakes to compliment locally sourced coffees and hot drinks that are equally as wonderful. The service is always exceptional, out the back of a vintage van lovingly converted into a coffee shop on wheels. Not just novelty - the quality is consistently good, fairly priced and it’s a pleasure buying from a local small business. We’ve been many times and we will be back.

This family run business is fantastic! They have become our first stop when exploring Warley woods, coffee for me and mom and a hot chocolate for your little lady. Of course there is always a great selection of treats to go with the bev and they always have different drinks available for different seasons. We love the happy coffee man. Fair prices, fantastic customer service and let's not forget how great the classic van is!

We were looking for somewhere to have breakfast and this place had really good reviews. I can honestly say that this is the best veggie breakfast and the Mrs said the best meat breakfast we have had in a very long time. It was cooked to perfection and the herbed beans were absolutely stunning. We had polish honey mustard that really added to the experience. The owner is the perfect host and was so attentive and funny. Next time we are in Birmingham this is definitely being visited again.

We have been regulars at Old Dresser Cafe in the last 2 years. It's definitely a hidden treasure outside of Birmingham city centre! The authentic Polish food is what we love most! Very generous portion and very friendly service! We also love their deco! Very quirky! In short, we loved it every time!

Delicious Polish food! There are plenty of options for different tastes, a mix of English, Polish and European inspired dishes. My partner had Hunter's Stew and I had Potato Pancakes with Goulash. We shared our mains so we can try both dishes. Both were very flavourful and filling! The potato pancakes are freshly made, and the goulash was nice and rich, my favourite dish.

If you’re searching for an authentic Ghanaian restaurant in Birmingham, this is the place to be. I tried their fufu with goat meat, and the rich aroma of the soup lingered for days. Their prices are also very reasonable, especially compared to London. Highly recommended!👌🏽

Went to the Ghanaian takeaway for the first time. I took Jollof rice with chicken. The portion was good and the food was spicy. As a South Asian, it goes with our taste. The ambience was vibrant. Enjoyed the time.

The quality of the food/ingredients is amazing. Even seemingly “simple” dishes are just bursting with flavour. The service is friendly and attentive, but relaxed and the new refurb is absolutely stunning. Ordered slightly too much and no regrets! Had the the burrata, arrancina, gnocchi and broccoli&pumpkin. Stunning all round.

Our first visit to tropea and we will definitely be back! The food was incredible, the burrata and mussels were particularly amazing, as well as the tiramisu. The atmosphere is lovely in there and the servers are all so knowledgeable and attentive, the service from Asher was particularly great! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, it isn’t cheap but definitely worth it for a treat or special occasion

Second time visiting this restaurant and 1st time after the refurb. The refurb is definitely made the whole experience much better as there is so much more room. You can see from the picture we were sat in a new booth which was nice. The food like the 1st time was very nice, the honest review is that it all tastes fresh. Waiters are very helpful to advise how many dishes to get and which dishes are popular. There was even a special dish that we ordered that was not on the menu. Trying to find parking can be an issue. There are vegetarian options however the menu does not state which are therefore you need to ask, it would be ideal if the menu had the (v) or (vg) next to the dish.

Was extremely pleased with this restaurant and staff were very friendly from the moment you enter. I had some booking issues but was able to resolve them quickly through email and received a prompt call to follow my issue. The solution was clearly explained and made it easy to find an alternative. In terms of food, everything was delicious and well plated. Food came out in a timely manner and more surprisingly, menus also included a small message celebrating the occasion! Truly get a taste of every dish if you can but if not, get the Arancino and salt aged-beef fillet carpaccio for starters. For pasta, the linguine with red prawns was tangy and flavoursome but meat lovers would enjoy the Tagliatelle with venison shoulder ragu. The grilled octopus was delightful and meaty and balanced well with the roasted pumpkin with ricotta. Dessert is certainly difficult to choose but the tiramisu was wonderful, fluffy but also still maintained the coffee flavour well! The panna cotta was amazingly refreshing with rhubarb and wafer~ Only thing that isn’t really a negative but just funny was a slight change to my name but honestly made the experience more memorable. I really appreciate the effort and care in every detail to ensure comfort and ease whilst dining! Overall glad I came and shoutout to the team there for making this service amazing from beginning to end! You all deserve a lot of love 🫶🏼
