Had a two course lunch consisting of burger, chips slaw and Jam sponge with custard. The burger was OK but could have been a bit hotter. The jam sponge was quite dry and nothing special. Despite these criticism the burger tasted very good and we ate all of it. The ambience was also very good and service was quick and friendly. Would recommend.

Highly recommended cafe in Llanelli. Gorgeous home cooked food, good value for money, friendly service, look forward to my next visit. Good idea to book a table as it can be busy.

Very friendly service, nice atmosphere and very clean. I go here now and again with my boyfriend and he loved his Welsh rarebit. My only complaints are that they stopped doing the garlic mushrooms which was my absolute favourite, and that they stop doing food after 2. Not had a bad meal there in all the time it’s been open! Love it

Called in for coffee and a turkey panini recently.. coffee lovely as usual and friendly service but very disappointed with the panini. The bread was very hard and extremely dry. Barely a scrapping of butter and cranberry. Very little turkey. The coleslaw was very runny and the side salad very poor quantity and quality. Will call again but will order something else..

Being stuck in a place like Llanelli, having somewhere like Avo to take refuge and enjoy great food and coffee in cosy surroundings is a very welcome thing! Great coffee, lovely food (homemade beef cawl a highlight!) and great friendly service. Winner!

My wife & I have always had a "Christmas Dinner" in Avo & the quality has remained constant over the years. Today was no exception. Apart from the usual meat ( there was a choice between turkey & beef) there was also an option of nutroast for the growing number of vegetarians. On the plate was, of course the meat ( or nutroast) a delightful helping of stuffing, roast potatoes, roast parsnips & mashed potatoes. On a separate tureen was an assortment of four other vegetables. Another small pot arrived with creamed leeks with a cheese topping - absolutely to die for. Unfortunately, because of the current restrictions, no alcohol could be served but the owners. Alana & Aaron had thought of this & we, among quite a few others, had some non- alcoholic wine. All in all, the whole meal could not be faulted in any way. If you get the opportunity next year & Alana is doing this meal again & you're in the vicinity, I strongly advise you to book this meal.

Had a quick lunch today with my sister making the most of the 50% off scheme and again I am not disappointed. Had the tastiest chicken quesadilla and coffee. All food is homemade, delicious and reasonably priced. Amazing service with friendly faces who can’t do enough. Huge portions but couldn’t say no to taking home a piece of homemade Carrot cake.. Cannot recommend enough - a must visit when in town for sure!

We went to Avo for lunch before going to the cinema as we had seen good reviews on Tripadvisor. The cafe is spacious and comfortable both for a main meal, a snack or a cuppa and cake as there are both sofas and dining tables. Service was pleasant and efficient and the prices very reasonable. There was a good choice menu. We chose the full breakfast and enjoyed it. Very generous portions.We hope to return when in Llanelli.

We visited today for the first time and were impressed. The staff were friendly and efficient and the food was good and reasonably priced. I was a little disappointed that the dessert menu was limited and the cake options were extremely plain: bara brith, Welsh cakes or scones plus bought in custard slices. I’d have loved a slice of homemade sponge with buttercream. Other than that we were satisfied and will return.

We have been visiting Avo’s regularly for lunch for a number of years but I’m ashamed to say I have never taken the time to review it. I work in Llanelli and come for lunch with colleagues when time permits. This is a wonderful place, the owners and staff are welcoming and always pleasant, the food is freshly cooked, homemade and to a high standard. The menu is varied and the addition of specials gives extra choice. Their cawl has to be the best around! Prices are reasonable and definitely value for money. We’ll be back again on Wednesday as it’s a colleagues birthday!

With regards to the comment below i attended the cafe the same time there was no chalk board on the door saying that food wasn't being made in that case we never would have gone in cause we were going for lunch we decided to stay for a latte which tbh was not very warm and didn't even taste like coffee in my personal opinion if you are a business you should not run out of food and not be able to offer anything to customers staff were not exactly welcoming and there was no atmosphere more than likely will not be coming back unfortunately

Came today for lunch after reading such good reviews , started disappointed as we were told that there was no food being made so just coffee and cakes were available . I thought they would keep serving till closing as it says closing is 5pm and we arrived at 2.30 . The lattes were nice but could do with being warmer , the chai tea latte wasn’t a chai tea latte to me , it didn’t taste anything like it should . Shame we didn’t get a lunch as I loved the decor and it was very comfy but there wasn’t an atmosphere at all and the staff weren’t really bothered . Will return as maybe this was an off day . Hopefully next time there will be food available .

Bacon/sausage bap and tea. Beans on toast and Americano. Asked if I wanted a mild/normal or strong coffee. Coffee hot and side milk hot - tasted delicious! Sausage and bacon good quality.

He estado en este restaurante antes y siempre tienen una ebjoyable panini. Hoy, después de un chapuzón en la piscina local sw, pedí un pesto, tomate y queso panini. Acompañando la ensalada y patatas fritas de panini era o col. No soy un fan de patatas fritas, así que siempre pide la ensalada y col. En un fiverish, es una buena oferta y elección de tamaño de café, que la comida venga a más de £7. Muy agradable que no escatiman panini en el pesto (como el café en Aberglasney. . Caro y sosa). El café era uno de los mejores que he probado y estaba caliente. (No soporto caliente. Café. . me recuerda a estar en el trabajo.

Went here for breakfast with my Sister and two friends.Two of us had full English breakfasts, my Sister had an egg n bacon sandwich and my other friend had the porridge.They were all brought to the table within minutes of each other despite the cafe being very busy.My only downside of my breakfast experience was with regards to the coffee. Whilst I have to say the cappuccino coffee was lovely - well it must have been because whilst I was there I had three.And the bill for my coffees alone came to over six pounds - other places offer free top-ups or second cups for half the price.This is the only reason I find myself unable to give five stars.The place and the staff are very pleasant well presented and overall service very good. I will definitely be going back but drinking less coffee that's for sure - my purse can't take it!

If you want a good , home cooked breakfast, lunch or cream tea and home made cakes, this is the place to visit. Run by a young couple who have created a wonderfully friendly and welcoming atmosphere, Avo's is popular with both older and younger clientele and has the capacity to cater for people with wheel chairs and mums with pushchairs. Regulars visit Avo for the home baked scones and cakes and the homemade cawl served with bread and cheese and most are on first name terms with the owners. I defy anyone to go in grumpy and not come out happy, such is the quality of produce on offer, the service and the comforting atmosphere!

Had to go to Llanelli this morning for a business meeting and had to walk past this cafe. It looked bright and welcoming from the outside and I made a mental note to call in for coffee on my way back. I was not disappointed. At 11 am on a dull, grey January morning the cafe was busy and there was a genuine buzz about the place. The young woman who took my order greeted me with a friendly 'happy new year'. I only had time for coffee this morning but I noted the home-made specials board and intend to return with a couple of friends to sample the food. Nice to go somewhere where the staff are genuinely friendly and pleased to serve you.

I am a fairly regular customer to this cafe. It has an extensive menu and the food is always prepared to a high standard. Staff come to take drinks order before food which I think is nice. Staff are friendly and helpful and accomodating of young children. The only thing that can be uncomfortable is that when the door opens is can be very draughty, tends to feel like a wind tunnel. I think they would benefit from a porch.

A superb place in the heart of Llanelli, a town which has seen better days (like most of what was 'Industrial South Wales'). I have to make an annual visit to Llanelli from Aberystwyth, and the reviews of Avo tempted me there for lunch. Both times on a Monday, and both times were excellent. The service is delightful and competent, and the food is not just good value for money, but of excellent home-made quality. The seating is comfortable, and the ambience is local and friendly (and definitely Welsh! a huge plus!). The locals themselves obviously enjoy it too, as it was very busy on both occasions, and obviously a place for people to meet with friends in town.My Mam who comes along with me there for a day out was also delighted. Her omelette and chips were just perfect, she said. The coffee and cakes were superb too. I just wish I had the room to try everything on the menu, it all looked so appetizing. I will be telling all my friends about Avo cafe Bar, as many of them will be attending the National Eisteddfod in Llanelli later this year. I hope they all give you a try and drum up a good amount of business for you. You deserve it. Da iawn. Well done!

Avó Cafe is a wonderful place to eat whether for breakfast or lunch or just to catch up for coffee with friends. The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly which makes it a lovely place to eat. However, I would of liked to have seen some portuguese dishes on the menu or even portuguese cakes/pastries as that is the heritage behind the place. (Avó is granny in portuguese) but even so what they have on offer is lush. Definitely worth a visit!! 10/10.

Every time I have dined here the service has been great, the food is delicious and freshly made - real home cooking! The coffees and cakes are devine - I would love to see them open in the evenings...There's not many places left that take pride in the quality of their food..this is definitely the place :)

First visit to Cafe Avo but definitely not the last. Plenty of choice on menu which included light bites for under £5. Service was excellent and food was very good. Very busy for Monday lunch time which shows how popular it is. There were some delicious looking cakes which I will have to try next time!

Last week I thought that the carrot cake was perfection. This week the lemon sponge has left me almost lost for words. It was light, moist, tangy, totally delicious. The welcome was, as ever, warm and friendly. Very Llanelli! In this horrible weather thank goodness for the warmth of Avo's.

I read the reviews in Trip Advisor and, after having just come to Llanelli, I hought this would be a nice place to stay. Yet, the ambientie of this place is "cold" - more or less no colours, the service on this day was below average, I wanted to have a second pot of thea, looked to the waiter whenever he passed by, but he only looked to the other guest - possibly the ones he knew better - and forgot to serve a new costumer. This is now what I expected from the place that is ranked № 1 in Llanelli.

We've been here numerous times and the service and food is always great. It's nice to go to a cafe that offers other, delicious homemade choices than the usual jacket potato or sandwich you find in other places. The prawn and chorizo dish makes a fab lunch, and how nice to have a gluten-free pudding option of a chocolate brownie. No other cafe I know of in Llanelli offers such quality and choice - good job, guys, and see you again soon.

Every meal we have eaten in Avo's has been good. I chose quesadilla last time which was as delicious as any eaten on holiday in Mexican restaurants. The cakes are mouthwatering; the scones, fresh out of the oven, with clotted cream and jam were exquisite. Everything is done properly, there seems to be no compromising on quality. The service is just as good, always friendly and efficient. What more could one ask!

I was there when the deliver man came & I know why the coffee is so good know the only buy the best ! You won't find that coffee being sold at Starbucks , it's not cheap to buy top if the range ingredients but they do & sell their coffee at prices lower that the chains that burn the coffee and get you to pay for the privilege of standing around waiting. I saw the food come out & it looked bang on - why not put on a steak night with Celtic Pride steak ? Local beef that's absolutely brilliant ! Try Celtic Pride at a Brains pub & then try Wetherspoons - you might as well eat your daps !

Stopped off at this oasis on our way to Tenby. My wife and I both ordered bacon sandwiches and coffee lattes. Beautiful “home baked “ bread (probably from a bakery but looked and tasted home baked) a generous helping of thick cut bacon and a delightful cup of coffee. Staff were busy but friendly and attentive.

After getting fish & chips opposite the lady advised us to go & have a drink... £2.50 a pint she said. So we went and yes it was £3.90 for a pint & a half! What amazingly great value together with a warm welcome from the barmaid. Sat outside with a glimpse of the sea. Highly recommend.

Not suitable for gluten free options despite menu description. We stayed locally and this restaurant had good reviews and described having gluten-free options available which was cinic red when we phoned to book a a table. The reality however was very different. Unless I wanted a vegan red Thai curry there were no options for me on the menu. The items described as gluten free in the menu weren't available and we were told the menu was out of date. Very disappointing and not suitable for anyone wanting gluten free options.
