A Gem in Edgbaston – Damascena Cafe My wife and I absolutely love Damascena Cafe in Edgbaston; it’s hands down our favorite cafe in Birmingham. From the moment you step in, you’re greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with very comfortable seating that makes it perfect for a relaxing visit. The cafe offers a fantastic selection of food, sweets, and drinks. Tonight, as the weather was quite cold, we decided to enjoy some soup and Samovar tea with Kanafeh ice cream. Everything was absolutely delicious and exceeded our expectations. What truly made our evening special, however, was the exceptional service provided by Yousra. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure we had the most enjoyable and relaxing experience. Her genuine care and warm demeanor really stood out and added that extra touch to our visit. The location also boasts very adequate parking, which is a big plus. For all these reasons, we’ll definitely be returning to this Edgbaston branch regularly. A huge thank you to Yousra and the entire team at Damascena for making our day so memorable!

I recently dined at Damascena and was thoroughly impressed. The lamb and beef Donner was absolutely delicious, with tender, flavorful meat and generous portions that left me satisfied. I also tried the affogato for dessert, which was a perfect blend of creamy gelato and rich espresso – simply amazing. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made the experience even better. Damascena is a must-visit for anyone craving great food and excellent service!

This is fantastic spot for tasty authentic Middle Eastern food and hot drinks. The service was excellent and quick. Sarah and the team went the extra mile to explain some of the dishes and their recommendations. Can not fault!

First time coming to this location and I have to say it is my favourite. There is plenty of space between tables and lots of natural light coming through. We ordered the chicken shawarma, classic hummus and chicken shawarma arabiya. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked, lots of flavour on the potatoes too and the pickled veg was tasty. Plus they have plenty selections of cakes and pastries on display at the counter.

Cannot recommend this place enough, the friendliest staff, Hend and Ilyana were lovely. Food was top notch and even brought out the cake we’d bought for a birthday celebration free of charge!

Ilyana served us and she was absolutely amazing and was so friendly!! Such an amazing waitress :) The food was amazing and couldn’t have asked for a better atmosphere

I came here today with my mum and I was served by the lovely Sara, she welcomed me and my mum with a beautiful warm smile and served with such politeness, she was attentive and provided such great customer service. Well done Sara keep up the good work you are a star

My favorite Middle Eastern cafe, Damascene, boasts beautifully decorated and immaculately clean premises. The exceptional customer service was a highlight of our visit. Our menu included delectable options such as cheesy toast, chicken wraps, refreshing mint tea, mango milk shake, and the signature Damascene falafel flatbread. The presentation was impeccable, and the flavors were both fresh and delectable. We were able to savor each dish thoroughly. The prices are reasonably priced, and the cafe offers outdoor seating. Additionally, a complimentary car park is conveniently located in front of the establishment. The children thoroughly enjoyed their experience at all Damascene branches :)
