Café in Cardiff

“Lovely old theatre, centrally located, seats quite comfortably with leg room so your knees are not rammed up against the seat in front. We saw Thank ABBA for the music. They are a fantastic group, the best abba tribute band around, the stage, lighting and even base sound was spot on. The staff were friendly and efficient, a credit to Blackwood. The theatre brings people into Blackwood town for pre theatre drinks and meals, which helps local businesses. Let’s hope Caerphilly county council realise this and don’t close the place. Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Excellent theatre, staff friendly and helpful, relaxed environment. Fantastic performance, thoroughly enjoyed. Well worth a visit or two.”

“Had a lovely brunch here a few weeks ago. Had a breakfast burrito and it was delicious. We came along quite close to closing time. They served us with quick service and were very friendly.”

“Lovely atmnosphere, super friendly staff. Coffee and breakfast was so good, the best I've had in a long time. Good value for money. Will definitely be going back.”

“Lovely wholesome cafe. It’s my mother-in-law’s local and she brings us here every time we visit! The coffee is excellent, the meals are high quality, and they have lots of local products including artisan bread. The sausage roll was one of the tastiest I’ve ever had!”

“Rosedew Farm is an amazing venue for a live band! The setting is full of character and charm, with plenty of space for guests to let loose and enjoy the music. Our bands always love performing here, the atmosphere is electric, the team are brilliant to work with, and every celebration feels relaxed, joyful, and unforgettable. It’s always a highlight on our calendar, and we’re proud to be part of such incredible weddings at this beautiful venue.”

“My visit to this venue was a real eye opener, I couldn't believe the quality of this facility in the heart of Grangetown. The Centre was buzzing with activites and classes for many ages, it was really great to see. I'll certainly be taking a few people to sample their in-house cafe so that they can also take a look at this place :-)”

“First time visiting Bragu Cafe. Ordered the maxi breakfast, kids breakfast, English tea & a Nutella hot chocolate. Food was delicious, especially the spicy sausage & chicken bacon. Everything was cooked to perfection & I'm very particular about how my food's cooked. Modern clean interior, reasonably priced food & drink and good customer service. Will definitely be back!”

“Found this place by accident and so glad we did. My granddaughter and I had a faultless lunch. My granddaughter, who is a tuna melt toastie expert, said it was the best one ever. In fact she had two! The dirty chips were amazing as well. The staff are so friendly and helpful, felt as if we knew them already. Thank you and we will be back soon.”

“lovely staff , i go there all the time ,best breakfast baps in cardiff!”

“Insole Court is a great venue for events. We always have good feedback when we do something here. People are often surprised by the beautiful buildings and extensive gardens and grounds hidden in the suburb of Llandaff. We have also found the staff to be welcoming and very helpful. Highly recommended!”

“This park has something for everyone! Great for cycling and rollerblading on the wide paths. There are outdoor fitness equipment stations, tennis courts, and even a small cafe. It's the heart of the community—always buzzing with life, yet you can always find a quiet corner. Love it here!”

“We’ve had such a great afternoon at Poro.I never leave a review but wanted to tonight as I picked up as soon as I walked in that the staff were brilliant ,the atmos was lovely and cozy and that we were in for a lovely evening. The food was fantastic and the Gluten free options were plenty and thoughtful. What made it for us was the staff. They were so tentative, and timing was impeccable…. We never had to ask for anything… they were on it. I will definitely be back again and will recommend to friends and family. A perfect afternoon. Thank You”

“Lovely place to visit. It's only a smallish pier easy to walk to end and back. The pier is beautifuly looked after and well maintained, public toilets on the pier were clean and well maintained. The tide was out on our visit. picture of the support legs, all the other pictures included me so not posted”

“We visited yesterday and I had the poached eggs on sourdough bread. I have to say these poached eggs were the best I have ever tasted in my life. They were cooked to absolute perfection. The yolks were perfect, just the right consistency and totally delicious. I'm not a great fan of the white preferring the yolk, but these whites were delicious too. The addition of the sourdough bread as opposed to ordinary bread added to the taste also. I don't know how your chef made this simple meal so exquisite, but please pass on my compliments to him/her. My husband enjoyed his omelette too. Will be back!”

“So it turns out that there’s more than one of these cafes and this one is great too. Location is fantastic on the corner of Victoria Park and the corner position is ideal for catching some sun on a nice day. Food and coffee is excellent with the savoury Welsh cakes being a signature option here and at the Roath location. Really friendly staff - shout out to Robin for a lovely conversation with my breakfast. They also had posters up for Dirty Gnocchi doing evening food there, so we will definitely be back for that. Unexpected in this location but definitely recommended. There’s also parking outside, which is at a premium in this area.”

“Great coffee shop, serving lovely coffee. Friendly staff and an even friendlier dog (Think his name was Ted) giving a great welcome.”

“I had a couple of coffees and an almond croissant, and everything was delicious. I was served by a young guy in glasses who kindly explained the coffee beans and provided service with a smile. I would recommend.”

“First visit and I was very impressed. A very festive and friendly atmosphere. Excellent, tasty food and service. Will definitely be back”

“Lovely friendly place. Good food and service”

“I’ve been looking forward to having lunch and trying out Vietnamese Bahn Mi! The servers were friendly and recommended to me Cinnamon Egg Coffee instead of cocoa (because it was already sweet) and I appreciate that because it was my first time trying the egg coffee. There was no black sugar pearl boba - next time! The Bahn Mi was yummy - baguette times by 10. Had all my favourite tastes like spicy tang, fried tofu, packed with veggies and the bread wasn’t stale or too soft. I opted for the vegan tofu as I have a halal diet and personally prefer vegan food over food that I’m not 100% sure is permissible for me to eat. Next time I’ll bring a friend ❤️”

“Forest time ive been here and really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, great food, great service and the ability to take my dogs in. We'll defo be back soon”

“I have read the recent negative review and cannot disagree more. My wife and I come to The Clarence most days of the week and find it to be clean, the staff are very accommodating and pleasant; nothing appears to be too much trouble and the food is very good. The park itself is lovely and it just goes to show you cannot please all of the people all of the time.”

“Had my daughters 5th Birthday Party here, absolutely amazing service from start to finish. Everything was done so beautifully, they were very helpful and nothing was too much. They done everything to make sure the day ran smoothly. Couldn't recommend them enough.”

“Good food. Fantastic service + atmosphere. Great prices. Swordfish pasta in fish stock is a must-try. Great combination of seafood flavour and cherry tomatos. They have lunch hour specials on weekdays from 12-2pm. £10 for 2 course, £13 for 3 course.”

“Great food at a good price! The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful — they really create the warm atmosphere of this place. Highly recommended!”

“Recently taken over by a new owner and there’s a clear improvement. Service is quicker, food is decent, and prices are reasonable compared to similar cafés in the area. Portions are good and everything came out hot and well cooked. Worth trying again if you haven’t visited for a while.”

“The best coffee in Cardiff, if not all of South Wales, and incredibly friendly, genuine service. A gem.”

“Stayed for the weekend with friends and family in 2 separate lodges. Staff could not be helpful enough when called upon and very friendly. This place is totally hidden away and a breath of fresh air considering its only a stones throw from the busy M5. There are several choices of accommodation which are all spotless, we'll equipped and nicely spaced apart from each other. For those that love the water ,canoes, kayaks and paddle boarding is made easy with a lovely wide calm stretch of river to explore, if that's not enough they also have we'll instructed archery and axe throwing. We had 12 adults in our group who all said we'd return again. Great stay ,many thanks to all the staff.”
