Found this place hidden away, and decided to try it for a breakfast bagel. "The full one" which you can see was delicious and only £4.70 with a hot or cold drink. Everything within the bagley was delicious, and the coffee hit the spot.
The pasta boxes selection looked amazing, I'll be revisiting to try these!

Nice good quality pasta with a very affordable price (especially for students)
A small lunch meal deal can easily fill me up
Breakfast Bagels are lush! They are the best thing to have as a late brunch in the Weekends.
It is a daily go-to breakfast place with really nice coffee! A must try if you live nearby or study in Cardiff Uni:)

Such an amazing idea! Basically create your own pasta dish - completely personalisable!

EDIT: Guess when I came here before I was unlucky. Got a good quality medium pasta + pepsi for around £5 (w/ the discount applied) and they've sped up their service since I last came here. Absolutely brilliant!
I wish Google did half-stars as this place deserves more than a 3⭐ but doesn't quite warrant a 4⭐. Staff seem a little rushed and disorganised because they seem to receive a lot of orders at once from people phoning in and using Deliveroo etc. Although I did wait quite a while for my pasta and hot chocolate (~20min) it was good as a pick-me-up in the morning. (Although nothing particularly amazing). Prices are reasonable (although a tad on the expensive side?) and the 15% Student Discount is very nice. (Helps to offset the price a bit) I've to try them, but the bagels are quite nice (or so I've been told and seen by the fact they're very popular)
TL;DR Pasta is decent and a decent price, but probably a good idea to order this one through Deliveroo to your dorm/office rather than coming down here in person.

My boyfriends ordered the pasta pot. We don’t normally bother with reviews etc but he’s insisted I put up a good review! I tried it and the meatballs with bolognese sauce and sausage (random I know) was just unreal. Best place we’ve ordered from on Uber so far!💕

I ate here more out of convenience than choice because it is close to the bus stop from where I needed to catch my next bus, my bus was, as is usual with the Cardiff System, either considerably delayed or cancelled without notice, and I was hungry. However, I was pleasantly surprised. It is what it says on the tin: a pasta joint, with all types and all toppings, in three sizes, and extras such as a side salad or garlic bread or a drink if you go for the meal deal. Fast, delicious, everything in recyclable materials, and a small but adequate seating area if you choose, as I did, to eat in. Beats a big Mac any day of the week. Card payment only.

Quite possibly the best vegetarian breakfast I’ve ever had! Amazing prices, friendly staff, yummy food. If I lived here I’d come here all the time. Thank you so much 💛

Ridiculously good value, and mega tasty! I stayed at the Mercure round the corner and was asked for £17 for breakfast.....its a no brainer

Fantastic food - went in yesterday around afternoon time; the staff were super jolly, food is super good;
You can swap out sauces and fillings that you don't like for an alternative option (had a meat feast with Bolognese sauce) food tasted wonderful.
Venue is really nice, and feels really cozy to be in.
Prices are pretty average, good for a nice meal if you only have £5.
Definitely would highly recommend this place, nice little gem of a place.

Lovely cooked and tasty food
David Ellison
Very good food at very reasonable prices. Really liked the Spicy Meat Feast. Others did their own combination of starch, protein and sauce. Their meal deal is a real bargain. Fast easy meal to take out or eat in.

Have been here on several occasions now. Very friendly staff who are always happy to personally help you when picking your order. Your food is cooked in front of you and personalised with salad and cheese to fit your taste. I found the staff member Lauren M especially helpful when ordering. There is also student discount of 15% available.
Ricardo Lau
Excellent for value, especially the morning bangles, in addition with the student discount it's a steal.
The pasta is a gamble, it highly depends on who prepared it. Some have more sauce than pasta, some taste decent, so order at your own risk.

**editing my original review because we've got even more experience here now**
Myself and my boyfriend have ordered from Lilo's more times than I'd like to admit. Super great for students like us at deadline/exam time when there's no time to cook, affordable and much better than ordering stuff like pizza/junk. I would definitely recommend Lilo's to anyone.
The lunch deal boxes are packed so full when you order through deliveroo and the free toppings of salad and cheese are generous too. The large box is so good for the price, sometimes we have enough left over from lunch to eat as an evening meal. The pastas themselves are so tasty and satisfying, I really recommend the Cheesy Chorizo and Mexican pastas.
Also their desserts are really good, especially the lemon blueberry slice, and they have Vegan options. Delivery is always really quick too.
Definitely one of my favourite lunch places in Cardiff.

Just under £4 for a packed bagel and coffee! Awesome!
Lovely staff. Am working in Cardiff, staying in hotel and supporting NHS, this chap opens every morning to look after us. Very grateful.

Absolutely lush!! The girls were tired behind the counter so I thought pasta won't turn out as good but I got it as a takeaway & it's the best I've had in years! I'll bring over my friends to try soon!! Well done 5 stars 😊😍
