Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Nicely kept little place with good, unpretentious food/cakes, friendly staff and a beautiful view. Welsh rarebit was lovely. Big carpark and the toilet was fine.

We live a short distance away, but only found out about this place around Easter. We have never looked back. Totally amazing breakfast. Staff are lovely. Had lunch here as well a few weeks back and it was lovely. Only picky thing is, it's not...table service, so if you want another drink, you have to queue up again to get one, which can be a bit of a pain during the summer months, but totally worth the wait. Cannot recommend this place enough. Well worth a visitMore

Visited this morning for breakfast. Husband had the captain’s breakfast - excellent. I had the avocado with poached egg . Unfortunately today the egg was hard , I know if I had commented then they would have done something about it , but they were...busy and I didn’t want to fuss . So basically my own fault 😂. I have had this meal several times before and it is always delicious so please don’t let today put you off . Staff are always friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend.More

What a wonderful cafe, lovely fresh home made cakes, salads, sandwiches and more substantial meals too. We had the “special” crab rolls. Staff were very pleasant, efficient and incredibly busy. It’s the perfect place for a snack right on West shore beach which is lovely...and sandy(and quiet) Plenty of fee parking too!!! Just be aware the cafe doesn’t have its own toilets, and the public ones are not very pleasant.More

What a lovely location this cafe has. It was very busy when we called in for lunch and to my delight they had crab baps on the menu. I was so disappointed, I could hardly taste any crab due to the vast amount of mayonnaise...they had used to pad out the crab, I should have done what the gentleman did with his when it arrived, two bites and he took it back. My husband had the falafel salad, he said it was okay but mainly salad leaves. I would go back for tea & cakeMore

Perfect location, located just behind the west shore beach car park. Offers a wide selection of food, hot / cold drinks and ice creams a very welcome break from the beach! Sometimes it’s busy but what do people expect when this is the only cafe...on the west shore beach, busy means good remember! There is both spacious inside and outside seating. Cute touch is they sell some beach equipment such as buckets and spades which is perfect if the children has forgotten theirs! Staff are all attentive, friendly and welcoming, we felt very well looked after! I really recommend this place to anyone visiting the west shore! 10/10 :)More

Had heard great things about this cafe, so though would give it a try. Long wait to order in the queue as the person taking the orders also did the drinks. Ordered the homemade quiche with salad and chips. The pastry was soggy underneath and...not cooked. Absolutely NO taste to the filling and resembled scrambled eggs, full of water. Salad was nearly non existant. Also very expensive for a cafe. Wont be visiting again. Shame as it has great views and potential. I suggest table service.More

Long queues to order. Seems a strange choice to have the lady taking the orders also make the hot drinks leaving the queue to build and customers to get tetchy. Service was friendly but there was then a very long wait for food so the...hot drinks had long since been consumed before it arrived. Although busy outside it was very quiet inside so doubtful they were anywhere near full capacity. Drinks were good particularly the coffee. Food was decent, but a strange decision to leave grated cheese uncooked on a breakfast bap. No ability to swap breakfast items which given one of the items is black pudding, surely the marmite of the breakfast world, is a little inflexible.More

Very good service and nice food. Nice to see they serve Welsh Ice Cream (Parisellas) and support local rather than all the English varieties around the town. Nice outside seating area

When we arrived I was immediately impressed by the wide choice of options on the menu and fresh smoothies to boot!...The staff are friendly, the views are excellent and the food is fresh and delicious.

Awesome sums it up. My neighbours recommended this place and to be honest, I’ve always been happy with my local cafe. However, had friends from Manchester staying over Easter, so thought we’d give it a go. Got a table, although it was busy and only...had a short wait to order food. My friend and I had the smaller breakfast, whilst her husband had the large one. It was lovely. Hot plates( a must for me) well cooked , good quality food. Lovely staff and location. So good, we are going again tomorrow!!!More
