"Discovered this place by accident and was not disappointed. A wonderful gem hidden away in the heart of the shopping district in Coventry city, opp West Orchids shopping centre. It is a family business, hence the attention to detail in service, quality of food and shop decor. Enchanting and relaxing. The ambience was just great and I love the Oriental/Middle Eastern vibe inside. This is not a greasy spoons cafe nor is it a pompous high-end restaurant. However, it is a place for great food and provides a place to unwind and retreat from the world outside. I came for a late lunch (a halal lamb wrap with chips) which was absolutely delicious. Knowing I was staying one night in Coventry and having checked the menu, I decided was going to return for the vegetarian breakfast the next day. Again, I was not disappointed. The ambience was great, food was fantastic and staff polite and welcoming. I would give Bagel Brunch 6 stars if I could. Can't praise it enough. I returned to Bagel Brunch yesterday and again, was not disappointed. The place was buzzing as expected. This time I ordered a chicken bagel and it was the best bagel I’ve had in a long time! The yoghurt and mint dressing with chicken, in a lightly toasted sesame bagel, were just the perfect combination. Staff are always polite. I hope this family business bounces back in leaps and bounds after Covid. They deserve to continue to do well."

"Really really poor. The venue is lovely, but the restaurant would put me off ever using this place for a wedding. Service initially was fine, then 3 drunk ladies sat next to us which I wasn’t bothered about, it’s Xmas after all however they were asked numerous times if they wanted more drinks and if everything was okay, whereas my partner and I were not asked once for any more drinks etc seemed like they knew they’d make their money on 3 girls on the lash so didn’t bother with us. The starters were nice, the halloumi bruschetta was yummy but the Thai cake was literally one which was such poor value for money. Anyway, it came to the roasts I’m pretty sure I’d have eaten better at Toby carvery, st least the yorkshires would have been fresh. The roasts were awful, the but roast I had was not nice at all and looked like dog sick. It came in a soggy giant Yorkshire which looked like a frozen aunt Bessie’s, in fact it all looked like it had either been frozen or come in a bag, nothing fresh at all. And my partner had the pork, which is advertised with CRACKLING, but to call it that is actually laughable, when they actually bring you pulled pork and then a side of pork scratchings and say they’re crackling. I even asked the waitress about the crackling and she pointed to 5 pieces of pork scratchings on my partners plate and said that was is, I said to her they were pork scratchings but she didn’t understand. This was definitely a way to tell it wasn’t fresh as freshly cooked pork would have come with actual crackling on it. Honestly the whole thing was just awful, and to pay £15 for a roast that tastes like a microwave meal is ridiculous. We just wanted to leave, but again due to the service this took having to ask twice to be able to actually pay and leave. Such a shame as the barn/restaurant looks absolutely lovely, but I would absolutely never ever come back"
