“The Best Brekkies in Penarth and I have Tried & Tested them All. My siblings and I meet there to have Cooked Breakfast (Meat and Veggie Versions) And We All Agree. Best Brekkies, Service & Ambience . Highly Recommended.”

“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”

“The bartender Eilir was amazing! We sat at the bar and we made up cocktails all night long, he handcrafted to our specifications. Would try again - amazing cocktails”

“A great place for refreshments on Penarth pier with good opening hours. Got a Cadbury's hot chocolate and some welsh cakes to take-out before walking back to the Cliff parade free car park. Chatted about the Downtown Penarth mountain bike race in 2007.”

“I have always loved Coffee #1, and believe it is the best chain around this area. I order a large caramel latté with extra caramel and an extra shot, and after 2 of those (I'm beginning number 2 as I write), I can't think straight anymore, my handwriting goes completely wonky, and I forget the way home. That's the sign of a potent brew. The taste is good, but I've had 99 doses of radiotherapy (yes, ninety-nine) on my throat area, so my taste buds are redolent of a bad night out in Mogadishu. The latté art is spot on, so I don't hold it against the (traditionally harassed) barista that he could only with great effort hold back a wince of distaste at my Philestinism when I said yes to his offer of a swirl of squirty caramel sauce on top of the accomplished rosette. I ran a coffee shop for a while, and I used to snarl at everyone even though my latté art was poop and I only knew how to make one type of drink, regardless of what was ordered. The atmosphere is lovely, and I'm here at 1pm on a Tuesday. It's gently buzzing and only disturbed by one SCREAMING baby, (too many ristretto, methinks). We look out onto the fairly dull Penarth main street; more stimulating to point your chair inwards - this cafe is surprisingly deep, with enough tables for me not to feel *too* guilty/awkward at taking up a potential 3 seater on my lonesome. (To be honest, with a stoma in your neck and an electric voice, you get away with pretty much anything anywhere anyway - never underestimate the power of sympathy/revulsion). The atmosphere is in fact so pleasant that although I only came in for a takeaway cup, I've ended up staying for 2 and a takeaway pecan/salted caramel brownie for my dear wife. Come to this cafe. I don't think you'll regret it”

“Absolutely fantastic food. Friendly staff is always a plus. Parking is terrible but that's not the shops fault. The cod is very nice and the chips have a lovely taste.”

“Visited the Cardiff Bay branch recently. The food was lovely, the service was even better. The waitress, Eve, was really friendly and made me and my partner feel really welcome. Will definitely visit again”

“Ordered pizzas and sides for a large group of people late at night, thinking they were open until in the early hours of last Sunday night. When we arrived to the store to collect the pizzas the doors were still open, it was already 23:20 and the staff informed they close at 23:00 but they still took the order we made online. He was kind about the situation and still made fresh pizzas for us. Thank you for your service!”

“A wide selection of goods, priced to compete or out do some major supermarkets. Range of packet sizes. Staff pleasant and helpful. Clean and tidy shop.”

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. Every dish was immaculate and both the service and atmosphere were amazing.”

“Best curry we have had for ages! Quality of meat seemed very good and tastes were all so delicious.”

“We have been here a few times and never had a bad meal. We recently came on Saturday 15th and had a chicken curry and a lamb curry both with 3 sides each. Both meats fell apart and melted in your mouth! All the sides were delicious too, the pineapple salsa is Devine! We came again tonight and had a mid week roast, 1 beef and 1 belly pork, omg the dinners were both amazing and would recommend to anybody! Simon and his mum are a true vibe whilst waiting for the food to be dished up! We will be back soon, thank you!”

“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.”

“Booked last minute for an early table on new years eve, before a visit to the glee club in Cardiff - all I can say is WOW the food is incredible!!! first time here but def wont be the last, the BEST tsatsiki ive ever had in the uk - everything was tasty & very well presented - we were even given complimentary baklava which was also delicious! We will definitely return :)”

“If you are looking for authentic North Indian food, look no further. Kaku's Kitchen is the place. I have travelled to many places in the UK and tried so many Indian restaurants, apart from couple of times, mostly I was let down by taste. All the menus in so called Indian restaurants have been anglicised loosing the authenticity in the process. Kaku's Kitchen's food is the true taste of India.”

“This is a wonderful venue, huge choice, excellent quality and good portions. Staff are so welcoming and always extremely friendly. Been coming here for many years and will continue to do so. Well worth a visit.”

“Really lovely, quiet little pub with decent food, well cooked and nicely presented. The lunch menu is also really good value. If we are passing though again we will definitely return.”

“Good Italian home style cooking. The mushroom starter was soft and wonderfully seasoned. The cod was flaky in a delicate sauce. The home made Tiramisu was literally a melt in the mouth miracle. We sat outside and the whole time a waiter was outside watching to see if anyone needed anything.”

“Amazing food! Staff were amazing so friendly and fast! Food was so tasty would 100% recommend”

“Great location across from train station… Maybe the best Indian restaurant of the dozen or so I visited this year. Fantastic, attentive staff and great food. Highly recommended.”

“A friendly, cosy bar serving excellent steaks and pies. Service was friendly and efficient.”

“Lovely customer service with accurate updates on how long it would take. Food was delicious and had that old school takeaway feel, think guilty pleasure. The mixed starter for one came with two chicken balls, two prawn toast, two spring rolls and two ribs which is great for the price and easily spread further than one person. Couldn't fault it.”

“The cheese experience was a lovely way to whileaway 2 hours with wine and cheese. Recommended.”

“Staying in the area for the night and decided on a Chinese takeaway, checked reviews for local ones online and this place seemed to be the most favourable. Gotta say, probably the nicest Chinese we've ever had, even so we'd consider the 35min drive each way to come and collect going forward! Chicken balls were amazing, ribs were absolutely superb, noodles were gorgeous with just enough spice and proper chips! Winner!”

“Loved it. It was the perfect place for a typical kitchen pantry in case you want to stock up on Indian groceries in the kitchen, be it spices, ready mix masala's, dry grains, rice, pulses, breakfast products such as Pohe, Suji/Rawa, Atta, canned or tinned food. such as Chawali, Kala chana, red chana, rajma, Chile etc. And moreover the fresh vegetables such as fresh turmeric, lemongrass, curry leaves, guava, whole coconut, pumpkin for sambar, dudhi, karela, drumsticks aka in Marathi Shevgyachya shenga, etc. For chaitime and snacktime, rusk.toast, khari, biscuits such as almost favourite of many people - Parle G, good day, maska chaska etc. Also The fresh butchers section which sells such as chicken lever, gizard/petha, drumsticks, leg pieces, lamb kheema, mutton kheema, chicken kheema and a huge variety of options in fresh meat. The beauty is you could buy it as per your requirements and need. I recommend this especially to the students, it's one stop solution for them to equipped the pantry for Indian groceries.”

“Lovely place feels very homely, service was on point, the two lunch menu’s had great variety and keen prices - would recommend anyone to eat here - GREAT PLACE we opted for the fish and chips today and tasted great - well done we shall see you soon”

“A perfect night great location staff food and atmosphere. Always a great place to eat out especially in the summer. Great sunset over the Welsh coast line”

“I have eaten here with family three times recently and it has been outstanding on every occasion. Their steak is cooked to absolute perfection and the service is exemplary. They also have a lovely attitude towards younger diners. I will return as often as l can.”

“We hired the artisan cook for our wedding this weekend and what an amazing job they did. They did fantastic at catering for everyone and nothing was too much trouble for them. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed the pizzas provided as well as the warm welcome given by the staff. We would highly recommend them for hire”

“Always great service from the team at Fine Wines Direct. The shop and tasting room is a great place to browse and sample their great selection of wines. They also have a great selection of spirits. We recently attended their Christmas wine tasting event and it was a great evening with some brilliant wines purchased. Can't recommend enough!”
