Updated: Still coming here, I really enjoy it, although, annoyingly sometimes the upstairs isn't open so there isn't always a place to sit. Also, a weird one, but with the bacon and egg sandwich & the sausage and egg sandwich, there could be another egg, I usually have to split it up so that there is egg in both sides? Love it in here! Always lovely, staff are amazing, it is table service food, however, it is usually filled up with customers and they don't accept bookings, so be prepared to sit in the outdoor table (covered, in the arcade) and wait for a table to free up.

The wonderful mornings in the really nice and atmospheric tea room were the best thing about my two-day trip in Cardiff. Warm staff and lovely interior. The drinks are top class and the food is absolutely great for the price

Stopped in for afternoon tea with my daughter while on vacation. This was on a recommendation from the front desk at The Angel Hotel. We very much enjoyed the atmosphere and the woman at the front was very kind and helpful. The Carmel Black Tea was so good!!!! The only tiny fault was the cake was a bit dry. Not bad at all but, noticeable. Sandwiches were wonderful. If ever back in Cardiff, I'll stop in again. Price seemed very fair as well.

V nice inside. Food very expensive for what it is. £8.99 for a bacon sarnie. Latte ok, but nothing special. Service ok, but again nothing special.

I've not been here for 2 years yet this place is still amazing with a great selection of teas and cakes as well as other food all inside one of the most beautiful arcades in Cardiff, this is a great place to relax and rest after a busy day wandering around Cardiff.

Delightful cafe located on the High Street Arcade. Cozy overstuffed chairs in the restaurant and cafe style tables in the arcade. The menu offers a wide range of food, teas and coffees. Our party enjoyed a variety of coffees and only ordered tea cakes. We will definitely return soon and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a proper British tea room, I'd give 6 stars for atmosphere if I could. This is a great place to bring visitors. And I should mention the staff was friendly and efficient, which is always appreciated

The iced coffee is absolutely delicious - you could tell they use high quality coffee beans. The staff were super friendly which made the experience even better. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, with lots of different sofas and chairs to choose from. It's the perfect spot to catch up with friends, catch up with some reading, or just chill. Definitely coming back again.
