A big thank you to the Espresso Quarter barista for this recommendation. He confidently said, “if you like coffee, ONE1 is the best in Birmingham.” If you would have said that 10 years ago, it would be easy to believe. Given the where the coffee scene in Birmingham is now, there are too many good Independents to choose. For my personal taste, Espresso Quarter, located in the Jewellery Quarter, has the best tasting oat flat white in Birmingham. Still, if you want fabulous espresso (house blend or single origin) or filter, ONE1 is a great choice. The barista has high accolades, having worked at Birmingham’s best independents including Quarter Horse. He is passionate about well crafted coffee. What’s cool. Not only is the coffee great tasting, the latte art and coffee wares are of the highest order.

Plant n scented candle on each table. Friendly staff, really fresh and citrussy tasting coffee, reasonable prices, along with ambient jazz. Little treasure.

It’s probably the best specialty coffee shop in Birmingham! Yes, maybe slightly out of city centre but it’s definitely worth the walking distance which is just around Hockley Social. Please, make sure you try V60 by @swevencoffee roasters it’s seriously, hands down the best in the coffee game ! Another must is Oat milk flat white - my second “go to” Not only excellent coffee knowledge and friendly service but great selection of pastries ! Also coffee beans and accessories available for retail

Immaculately clean, including the dedicated sole member of staff! So much enthusiasm! Nicely presented & served food and drinks. Hot chocolate with a difference, go try one! Ambience spells relaxation. Unexpected find in a location that is changing.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff with a great selection of coffee and pastries too. The space itself is a great set up for a quick coffee or somewhere to work from remotely. Would highly recommend.

This is specialty coffee at its finest, such a cool, minimal space to get on with work, or just to take a break. Coffee is incredible, using a Colombian coffee from quarter horse as their house espresso, and a guest from Sweven. And changing beans frequently to alway get a new taste! - as the knowledgeable head barista noted! Really enjoyed it here , definitely recommend to any coffee lover!

Amazing trendy little coffee shop! Had a matcha latte and it was one of the best. You can also find cute homeware goods for sale. Will definitely be coming back!

Excellent coffee and a great selection of pastries and toasties. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, and it’s a great place to work remotely. I would recommend to everyone.

Best in Brum by a mile!!! Amazing space with even better speciality coffee. Super cool vibe in there with a very friendly barista. Couldn’t recommend more!

I’m a coffee fan but the hot chocolate is to die for over here. Best I’ve had by miles!! Barista is very friendly and skilful. Made that hot chocolate to perfection mate! Well bloody done! I’ll be back!

The chicken toast and the filter coffee are really nice. The environment there is good and very comfortable. A cafe that really worth to go!

It would be inappropriate having a coffee from ONE1 without leaving a 5 star review! The owner was super friendly, the coffee was amazing (I ordered a V60), the sitting area was way too comfortable, everything was simply the best. It is really impressive that a year-old business looking like this, I barely write reviews but this time, I was truly amazed by this coffee shop. Keep it up!!
