Dessert Express - Kings Heath

Kings Heath's got plenty going for it, but Dessert Express is where you head when you need something genuinely indulgent without the faffing about. The vibe is straightforward and unpretentious—you're here for the sugar rush, not the Instagramming (though honestly, the portions are mental enough to warrant a photo). The menu pivots between proper heavyweight stuff: think chocolate-loaded creations, thick shakes that'll keep you going, and desserts that don't muck around with minimalism. It's the kind of place where you pop in after a night out or grab something to demolish on the walk back down the High Street. Service is quick, prices are reasonable, and the whole thing feels properly local rather than chain-y.
