Being locals, we often stop here for a coffee/lunch break and have also enjoyed several evenings here. Last weekend we hired it for a family event (17 of us ranging from toddlers to pensioners) at which we enjoyed afternoon tea with glasses of bubbly. What can I say? It surpassed our expectations. The food was amazing and the vegetarians and vegans in our group were catered for exceptionally well. The sea views are truly amazing here - even on a wet and windy March afternoon. This is a lovely venue; we appreciated the fresh flowers on the tables and the bunting which they had kindly agreed to put up. However the outstanding feature without doubt, is the staff - from the booking process with Elena to the amazing Jane and Jeannie who treated us like royalty on the day - nothing was too much trouble - it was a first class experience that we will always remember with great fondness. Thank you all - including the staff whose names I don’t know who also helped out on the day. Highly recommend this fabulous venue. Thank you all from all of us!

Myself and my partner visited on the day of the pride festival, we walked up and grabbed a coffee from Bay5 Coffee House, we opted for a takeaway cup and walked around the rear of the building to firstly get away from the wind to try and drink our coffee and secondly to sit whilst we enjoyed our coffee. We are sat for 10 minutes when a waitress walks past myself and my partner, does not make eye contact but raises her voice “that’s takeaway cups, you need to leave the table”. Now there is a service and a way to speak to customers, frankly the fact this waitress didn’t make eye contact or even stop to address us in a personable manner shows the lack of customer service this waitress has. Upon trying to ask what the difference was between a china cup and a takeaway cup, the waitress ignored us and proceeded to clear a table before walking back in the building. I for one, will not be returning to Bay5 without an answer and apology from the waitress as to why she thought customers could be treated in this manner.

We like Bay 5, the coffee and cakes are quite good. However, on a recent visit we were charged over a £1 more than usual for our coffee's. I asked for a till receipt, when we got home I checked it. to discover that VAT had been ADDED to the advertised price rather than being included. This is illegal. To be sure I checked out a few legal advice sites Here's the conclusion: "VAT, AKA Value Added Tax, must be included in meal prices displayed". In short, the people at Bay 5 are taking the mick. Bad form, very bad form.

Staff really friendly and helpful. Visited twice whilst we were in Barry and had lots of cakes to choose from (as only looking for a snack) and settled for some brownies. Perhaps silly of me to choose with a small child wearing white 🙈. But they were amazing and thoroughly enjoyed by us both. Would definitely visit again.

Visited here Sunday with a friend for her birthday. We reserved a table for breakfast and we're running a little late but they kept it for us and were really friendly. Little disappointed to not have any egg choices for breakfast, breakfast stuff quite limited just had pastries, bacon sandwiches, pancakes etc which is nice for sweet tooth customers but just fancied a simple eggs on toast. Coffees come as only one shot which I personally don't think is enough but ordered a double shot latte which was nice. We both had bacon sandwiches which were nice and the tea was nice too we had two hot drinks and the staff were friendly. Would visit again

immaculate sea front cafe with lovely staff. It was really busy but we managed to get an inside table with spectacular views over the bay. Blankets were provided for those sitting outside. Everything is freshly prepared to order but we were served promptly. Ham and cheese pannini with lovely side salad and crisps and the crepes were amazing. Sweet or savoury fillings were constantly on order and i watched the lady prepare the batter ,, make the crepes , add the fillings and then fold them so they presented like a folded envelope.The couple at the side of us had the Festive Cream Tea inc. Sandwiches, miniature rolls, scones jam and cream , mince pies ! It looked delicious.Fab cafe. Lovely staff.Would highly recommend

I was lucky to get a seat on a scorching hot Bank Holiday Saturday. There were several staff working behind the counter but no-one seemed to be specifically charged with taking orders, so I waited for a few minutes before anyone took notice of me!

Such a jewel of a little café, in a gorgeous setting. Menu and décor takes it way above the average. We arrived very hungry, having been stuck in a traffic jam for ages. There wasn't much of a queue of people waiting to order, and the place wasn't absolutely rammed, but it seemed to take forever to get to the counter, and then the wait for the food to arrive was interminable. It gave us time to see what others were eating - those pancake stacks and tiers of cakes and pastries were works of art and we eyed them enviously. Unfortunately, when my cheese and tomato crepe finally came, it was lacking in both cheese and tomato. Hardly any filling at all. So I left as I had arrived - hungry. I really wanted to give this place 5 stars - it is a delight to the senses - but it really was very slow.

We have visited Bay 5 in the past, enjoyed the views and been happy with the drinks and food. However on this occasion we were surprised to see that dogs are allowed actually inside the already crowded cafe. One rather large dog was quite smelly in a doggy way and it was a bit off-putting. Another small but yappy dog was on its owner’s lap and frequently had its paws on the table. Judging by how busy the staff were, I doubt they would have had time to wipe the table with disinfectant in between customers. I am surprised about this as I thought there were hygiene laws concerning dogs and eating establishments. There are several tables outside which would be appropriate. Not everyone appreciates dogs as much as their owners and some people and young children are actually scared of them.

We went to Bay 5 for a family 50th birthday party and had an amazing evening. The place was all decked out for the party and looked fantastic. It’s right on the beachfront promenade so we were outside looking out on the sunset sipping drinks and talking. The party was a last minute booking but there was no way of telling that. The food was impeccable and plentiful, the drinks were very reasonably priced and the staff were fabulous. The service was wonderful and we had a perfect evening. We live locally and have been before during the day for a cream tea and also coffee on other occasions, but never knew they would be able to do an evening party. What a wonderful venue. Even though it is small and there were almost 30 of us, the weather was luckily beautiful so we were able to spill outside and gaze over the beach while our music was coming through the open doors. It was magical. Thank you Bay 5- we will definitely see you soon!!

I just wanted to say what a wonderful afternoon we have had today. A great walk on the beach with the dog. followed by wonderful food and drink at Bay 5. This is an excellent Café over looking the beach. It is small and very friendly with seating inside and out. it has wonderful views of the beach. You could be in foreign parts sat there watching the sea. The food is of excellent quality freshly prepared when ordered. They also cater for gluten free and dairy free. What stands out for me is the service and staff. They really do make every effort to accommodate people. So to this review I would like to add thank you to all your staff for wonderful service and can i just say I know you are autism aware but i feel you are also dementia friendly as well. Every time i use your cafe with my sister in law who has downs and dementia you are always so helpful and understanding. I cannot say that about all places.

Taken to Bay5 for birthday treat and afternoon tea. Food delicious and fresh served on miniature wooden bench. No one came and asked if we needed further tea as we had the pot before the food. Atmosphere left a lot to be desired as everything was rushed and noisy. There was a cold and damp feeling as well, in fact we never removed our coats. Better I would think in summer. There was a lot of people squeezing in to have coffee etc but it felt as if we had to eat up quickly as they needed the seats. Disappointed, not sure if we would visit again.

There is a wide variety of fare and most of us took advantage of the bacon crepes with maple syrup. In fact, you can have any combination of just about anything - just ask! Also they cater for the gluten and lactose avoiders and nothing was too much trouble. There was no hurrrying-up either. The selection of coffees was also wide-ranging and the place was very enjoyable -- watching the waves! Well done!

Great food. Great view, great staff, couldn't fault it. Particularly liked the fact dogs were visiting so I could give some love to other people's puppies!

A real treat. Sipping a delicious cappuccino while watching dogs and their 'humans' enjoying the morning sunshine on the beach below. Made to feel very welcome. Such a relaxing moment.

Have visited before, but today's visit surpassed previous visit. We had difficulty getting through the cafe with the pushchair, but a member of staff encouraged people to move their chairs to let us through. Everything was brought to the table. Food was excellent. Lovely crispy bacon sandwich, Nutella crepe yummy! Toilet is lovely and clean. Staff extremely friendly. Only downside was the table of rude customers who objected to moving their chairs to let us through, despite being asked by my daughter. They were taking up extra room with their dogs, and reluctantly moved after being asked to by staff! But that's people.......not the establishment!

I have previously reviewed Bay 5 and today we sat outside in the sunshine of a late November day and could have been abroad,it was so pleasant. Service was friendly as usual and as Lavazza coffee is my favourite we had a lovely time.

It doesn't really matter if it's raining, windy or sunny, at Bay 5 you will be always received with a smile and enjoy a drink or meal. Small and cozy venue with stylish decoration and a personal touch. I am a regular costumer and I won't change :)

What could be nicer than eating a yummy crepe and drinking excellent coffee while looking out over the sunlit Bristol Channel. Our crepes were made with very good bacon and drizzled with maple syrup. Only criticism was that the place seemed very slightly disorganised (probably because the kitchen space is small), however the service was friendly and quick. We'd certainly return. There is some outside seating though, to our annoyance, some of this was taken by a party who'd brought their own sandwiches and refused to move when asked by a waitress.

My 8 year old daughter & I stopped at Bay 5 for a warming hot chocolate & pancakes after a blustery winter walk on the beach. The staff were exceptional & friendly taking the time to chat to my daughter despite being busy. The food & drinks arrived promptly & were absolutely delicious. Well behaved dogs are also allowed into Bay 5 which is great as we spend lots of time walking the dog on the beach at this time of year. This visit certainly won’t be our last & we’re looking forward to trying their festive afternoon tea - delicious!!!

I went here on an absolutely miserable day and was pleasantly surprised by Bay 5. I was initially drawn in by their inventive hot chocolate menu, but when inside I was happy to find their large crepe selection.The staff members were all incredibly lovely and had some great customer service skills. The only thing better than the staff members were the crepes! They were fresh, piping hot and put many of the ones that I've had in France to shame.I'd recommend eating here to anyone if they are in Barry Island.

If we're over the island we will invariably call in here for our coffee, it's all rather compact and bijou and can get a bit 'jostly' when full of people. However, we prefer to call in winter time when there are less people around and when it just feels good to sit inside a warm atmosphere and take in the blustery winter conditions across the beach. The coffee's good too.

For my birthday my sister bought me afternoon tea at Bay 5 over Barry Island. It was a miserable rainy day but the coffee house was bustling with people. We had a nice pot of tea whilst we waited for our afternoon tea, which came with a nice array of sandwiches, very small pies, chutney and miniature sweet cakes. There was also scones with clotted cream and jam. All displayed on a little wooden table/bench. More tea was served in nice little China teapots. Not sure how much my sister paid, but we enjoyed the food and the chatting. Would we do it again there? Certainly not in the summer it would be too invasive with people in and out.

Fantastic location overlooking the beach. We experienced friendly service and tasty, well presented paninis together with the best flat white coffees in Barry. Not fast food - but worth the wait.

Went along at 3.30 to treat my daughter to pancakes, only to be told they were closing and only offering takeaways. We decided that we would have one to takeaway, but we’re told unfortunately they had turned the appliances off. Really disappointing, would have understood if it was nearly 5 but at 3.30!!
