We had just witnessed the opening of the 870 mile Wales Coastal Walk by Mr. Griffiths, the Welsh Environment Minister and were starving. All four of us agreed we had excellent food, coffee and the service was... More

Small cafe attached to Craft in the Bay building. A great range of salads, baguettes etc and a fabulous range of cakes. A lovely spot to stop with friends. The china is all mix and match old fashioned tea plates which I loved. Great service too.

Great cafe, only been once and should definately go again. Had a lovely sandwich and fantastic cakes. Excellent service from a lovely lady, probably the best place to eat in the Bay.
