This tiny little cafe has only been open a month and a half. I went in recently, and the whole…read moreexperience literally made me feel as though I was on holiday. The place is quite hidden away, and you might miss it if you're only walking up the Coleshill High Street. But if you park in Church Hill car park, you have to walk past L'Maiz to get to the main road. And it's definitely worth stopping by. Inside, you'll be immediately greeted by the Italian owner, who'll seat you in one of three tables. Yes, the cafe only has limited space, but I think this provides a great intimacy to the whole experience. Browsing at the menu, I was absolutely astonished by the wide range of food available. From hot roasts to toasties to breakfast to pasta, everything was freshly made by the owner himself. The pizzas (all of them!) particularly looked tempting, and I loved that you could get three size choices, and even just purchase once slice for £1 if you wanted! I did exactly this because I had eaten not long before. But if had I known how delicious the margarita was going to be beforehand, I'd have definitely bought a 9" (or maybe even a 14" for £9.50 if I was feeling particularly greedy). Next time I go in, I'm definitely trying the Hot Mexican Madness. It looks, sounds and smells amazing. Surprisingly for June, it was exceptionally cold outside; so I opted for a hot chocolate to accompany the pizza. The hot drink tasted exceptional, and beats any run-of-the-mill coffee shop version that I've tried in the past. No matter what time of the day, L'Maiz can cater for you. Personally, I must return for breakfast to sample the Full English (£3.50). It was also lovely to learn that the shop was named after the owner's daughter, which explained the homely, warm feel to the cafe.

Located in Barton Marina on the waters edge and so a beautiful location on a warm and sunny…read moreSaturday. We had planned to eat outdoors but it was a little breezy and an empty table at the Apple Tree offered some shelter and so we grabbed the table. This is where things went wrong. The staff was not at all friendly when Mrs G went in to order (I was sitting outside with our beautiful Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix Ricky Martin) and the staff was not trained. After the order was placed they can out to ask which baked potato we had ordered (really - I told you!). When it came out it was ok - but £8 for a baked potato - huh!? And then the brought out the wrong panini (she specified NO cheese because she has to avoid salt). So Mrs G essentially left hers uneaten and I ate mine but was still starving. That delight with 2 sodas - over £24! Will we be back? To the marina yes, to the Apple Tree - no thank you!

Been to Barton Marina a few times. It's just as you get off the A38 and head toward Barton Marina…read more There are a number of shops, a pub, Thai restaurant and a cinema. As it was raining this afternoon we decided to grab a drink & came at The Appletree. A cafe in a beautiful setting next to the Marina with a high ceiling, fancy lights, mirrors and a baby grand piano. I had a glance at the cake counter there was a good selection of cakes but I decided to go for a cream tea. My partner wanted the same but with coffee. I had to pay extra for coffee but not much. We waited a little while for the drinks etc to come. The only thing that spoiler the tranquil setting was a child screaming which was amplified by the vaulted ceiling. My cream tea arrived, a large pot of tea with a fruit scone accompanied by jam & clotted cream. It was all lovely. Our visit was only marred by the noise of the child but that happens everywhere we go and the toilet being out of order and the nearest public toilet being at the top of the Marina. Glad the large pot of tea didn't take effect.

The smell as you walk into the shop, is almost enough to make you order a cake straight away. The windows display show some of their possible creations, which have to be seen to be believed, but unfortunately no pictures are allowed. The shop itself sells cake tins, ready made icing, cook books, edible glitter, strong food colouring and a small range of cakes to buy like muffins. They also sell ready made cake decorations too, like sprigs of flowers made of sugar paste. However, the main focus of this business is the making of cakes to order, the variety is almost limitless, but the prices are on the very high side, still you are paying for individuality.

This is a much needed coffee shop within the new town center…read more The shop is decadently decorated with plush sofas and armchairs. There are plenty of tables and seats and it's bright, light and very clean. The selection of beverages is excellent; there is a lot to choose from both hot and cold. The hot drinks are served in huge bowl sized mugs! There is also quite a good choice of food both hot and cold, these are all pre-packed however (although I think all Costa's are the same! They also have a rather good cake and biscuit selection which accompany their drinks very well!! On a downside I think the service is quite poor! The stroppy girl behind the counter really needs to start smiling and speaking, she grunted to me the amount and failed to tell me that I needed to wait at the counter for my drinks (which took her ages to make!) so I sat waiting for ages until she came over to me and asked me to go collect them, in dire need of some customer service training, I think!
