“Lovely coffee shop a short stroll from UHW. Small selection of sweet & savoury things to try. Lemon drizzle cake was deliciously moist & tangy. Good coffee & pleasant service. More seating outside than in for dry days.”

The vibes in the cafe are also so good. Great for studying, working, chill meetings over a coffee or just chilling with friends.”

“Amazing food! So good that we came 2 days in a row. I only wish we tries it on the first day we could but alas, we stumbled upon it on the second last and last day of being in Cardiff. The lovely batista person behind the till had asked if we wanted a loyalty card and we explained we were on holiday. When we went back the next day he asked us if we were certain and we said we were sadly driving off after our breakfast. I noticed after paying for some sandwiches etc. for the road, that they had peanut butter, dark chocolate and sea salt cookies and asked my husband to get me one and the batista person gave me it on the house for returning, and wished us a safe journey. This genuinely made my whole day! Please go here, its soo good. I recommend the rose and jasmine tea, and honestly anything with poached eggs because the food was outstanding.”

“Great breakfast although sausages need work. Lovely black pudding makes up for them. Very reasonably priced with discounted tea and coffee. Lovely jungle atmosphere provided by in house parrots!”

“I've said many times that the existence of chocolate might be the only thing that could convince me of the existence of God. Certainly, nothing else could. Mrs, Potts is a divine experience. All you have to know is they serve frozen hot chocolate and the premier desserts include the Dream Cake and the Matilda Cake. They are a tad different--Matilda is moister and less dense than the Dream--and are worth the calories.”

“4 Seasons Food Store is proper sound! Loads of choice with fresh fruit, veggies, halal meats, and all sorts of international goodies you won’t find elsewhere. Staff are friendly and always happy to help. Prices are fair and the place is well-kept. Perfect if you’re after quality food or something a bit different – dead good spot in Cardiff!”

“My wife and I had the absolute pleasure of staying at The Coal Exchange on the 8th of August 2025, and we honestly can’t speak highly enough of the entire experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. A big thank you to Jamie on reception, who was incredibly friendly and polite – he made us feel instantly welcome and set the tone for a fantastic stay. Our room was stunning – beautifully decorated, spacious, and spotlessly clean. The highlight was definitely the spa bath in the room, which added a luxurious and relaxing touch to our evening. It was the perfect way to unwind. We also had the chance to dine at the hotel’s restaurant, and the food was nothing short of amazing. Every dish was full of flavour and beautifully presented. Special mention goes to restaurant managers Haley and Sam T, who were both outstanding – attentive, professional, and clearly passionate about delivering a great dining experience. All in all, The Coal Exchange exceeded our expectations in every way. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!”

Perfectly presented, tasty, fresh, and well wrapped, allowing the meals to stay hot in delivery. something we haven't always experienced with past stores we've ordered from. Friendly polite delivery every time.”

Went with a whole gang, and let me tell you, we were all thoroughly satisfied and delighted. The food was not only delicious but delivered the perfect amount of kick that we were looking for. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I left feeling very satisfied. I will definitely be visiting again in the future.
