Nestled on Dads Lane between Stirchley and Kings Heath, The Cake Place is a delightful new addition to Birmingham’s bakery scene that feels wonderfully nostalgic. Imagine giant sponge cake slabs drenched in icing and sprinkles, chunky chocolate concrete treats, mega-sized cookies, and fresh, crusty cobs straight from the oven — all at prices that will surprise you.
Founded by two proud Brummies, Sinead Keenahan, 23, and Amber Hickey, 20, this bakery is driven by a mission to keep delicious baked goods affordable. Almost everything on the menu costs under £2, with just a few indulgent items topping out at £3.50, like their irresistible Nutella cookie pie.
The Cake Place boasts a sunny outdoor terrace, perfect for enjoying a treat when the weather’s fine, plus cozy indoor seating to escape the rain.
