Primely located on Birmingham's New Street, Medicine Bakery is a cosy, little spot serving up fresh pastries and delightful brunches. Occupying a beautifully restored Victorian space - formerly home to the Royal Society of Birmingham Artists - this first-floor establishment seamlessly blends historical charm with contemporary design. Its central location puts it right in the heart of all the action, providing a relaxing pitstop for those spending a busy day in the city.
Known for its Instagram-worthy interiors, Medicine Bakery boasts a sun-drenched space, thanks to its overhead skylight and white walls donned with framed artworks. Here, guests can surround themselves with an abundance of potted plants and hanging baskets, adding a vibrant touch of colour to the space. Whether you’re visiting for a catch up over coffees and pastries, or are looking for a place for a weekend brunch, Medicine Bakery provides the perfect backdrop.
The menu at Medicine Bakery showcases a refined selection of brunch and lunch offerings, highlighting seasonal British cuisine with inventive twists. Signature dishes include buttermilk fried chicken French toast drizzled with honey butter and hot sauce, as well as huevos rancheros with pico de galo, fried eggs and smashed avocado. For something a bit heartier, be sure to opt for one of the breakfast sandwiches, eggs benedict or royale, or one of 'The Medicine' full English breakfasts - which also comes with a plant-based option.
Complementing the savoury fare is an array of artisan pastries and cakes, such as cronuts, cinnamon morning buns, and gluten-free sticky toffee banana cake, crafted by their team of skilled bakers. The coffee bar serves expertly brewed drinks, ranging from flat whites to matcha lattes, the perfect accompaniment to your morning pastries.
