As a regular who’s come here almost every week for 2 years, I can say that this is easily my favourite place in Cardiff! They have very knowledgeable and passionate (not to mention kind, friendly and hilarious) staff.
The interior design is immaculate and the atmosphere is always perfect! They also host great events with live bands/comedy. It’s on the pricey side, but I think it’s worth it, especially hearing the owner’s exiting plans for further renovations! It’s also dog friendly :)
It’s a great spot to study, but there are limited tables that allow laptops, so sometimes it gets tight for workspace. Also there’s no free wifi at weekends. This is just because the turnaround got real slow - since it’s so nice, people wanted to stay and study all day (us included!). The rules for laptops and wifi definitely help the atmosphere, because it keeps the place more social!
They also sell great beans that they roast here, and coffee equipment :)
Our favourite things to get are the vegan chocolate cake, the toasties, lattes, and V60s!
Such a great atmosphere and I love the staff !! Lovely service and people. However I feel that the no laptop and WiFi rules and 90 min maximum stay is a bit harsh. Love the inside though what a great vibe! On the pricier side.
Coffee rates highly! Not so much the experience. Somehow feels quite industrial inside, WiFi took an age to get working, and I can never quite relax when they've said you'll be asked to leave after a certain length of time.
Plugs available. Big open space which is a plus.

Don't know how many times I visited this shop but I am pretty sure The Dirty CHAI is my fav hot drink in my life so far, so creamy and nicely flavoured.
One of my favourite coffee shops in Cardiff. Always great service, and a great flat white.
The place is very good to focus spend time for meeting with friends. Also delicious coffee and atmosphere. Very kind service staff. Highly recommended.
Came here spontaneously, as we stumbled across Rhostio on a rainy morning walk. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the coffee was sublime.

Lovely outdoor space on the rooftop, inside seems great for working from.
Coffee was decent, wouldn't mind having it again.
Staff are friendly.
A bit expensive at £8.50 for 2 coffees, even though they were not the standard beans and we had oat milk.
Great cafe with a nice vibe and super chairs! Lives the food and drinks too. Brilliant coffee of course and the sour dough toasties were delicious! Poached eggs and jacket potatoes were also amazing.
Love it here, it's a stylish co-working space in the daytime and then there's a fantastic programme of events in the evenings. Plus the roof is such a great bonus. Look out for the artisan ice cubes!
