Eden is a social enterprise designed to serve great coffee and food whilst delivering a fantastic social impact. Owned and managed by YMCA Birmingham, Eden provides work experience and employment for the community and reinvests all profits to support young people within YMCA accommodation. That's why we say Eden is more than coffee!

Based at our brand new community centre in Erdington, Eden is the newest addition to our social enterprise department, which now consists of 6 different enterprises. In addition to this, YMCA Birmingham provides accommodation to over 400 young people every year. Eden serves freshly roasted Arabica coffee, speciality teas and an array of frappes and smoothies.

Very poor selection of cakes, no allergen info and nothing for vegans. You can choose cow, soy or oat milk, no coconut. There is no room to change a baby's diaper. Very nice staff

Very nice place, lovely food and drink. Lovely staff. Great atmosphere. If it was nearer to me it would be my regular coffee shop.

Lovely cafe. Coffee is good, a delicious selection of cakes (including some vegan options). Comfortable seating and family friendly. A selection of toys to entertain small children. Good value and good service, would recommend a visit if you're nearby and need somewhere to sit and have a drink

This cafe is such a great idea - as it's a social enterprise so it gives back to the community. It's nice and bright inside, with massive windows, and there's space to sit outside if it's warm. It's also extremely reasonably priced, with nice toasties and cakes at very affordable prices. Parking can get full quick, so it's ideal if you're walking or on public transport.

This was a nice cafe but it was virtually empty. Free parking provided for 2 hours although spaces are limited. Coffee was good and chairs comfy. I had work meeting there and it was a great venue

Part of the YMCA next door. Lovely little coffee shop that would put most of the majors to shame. Bright and airy with friendly staff. Tea served in a proper pot with the milk in a mini bottle.

Cheerful staff and excellent cakes. Didn't try today's special (beetroot and chocolate cake) but carrot cake first rate. Good parking. Interesting clientele.
