Boswells Cafe in Newport - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Busy coffee shop - Various beverages sold and they also have a lunch/light bite menu.

Always have good service and good food here. Nothing to complain about. Huge variety of food too. Good baby seats. Lots of room for pushchairs especially outside (which is really inside). Definitely will return

Loverly food nice and hot with great service I would recommend this place

Excellent service wide choice of beverages and food.

Decent coffee, more expensive than Costa...large is quite small :(

We went to this cafe on Saturday 22nd June. Both me and my partner ordered baked potatoes with side salad. The baked potatoes were lnot hot at all,and the salad looked like it was days out of date, with the peppers soft , limp and withered, the lettuce and red onion also looked.like they were out of date, with brown patches on them, and again were soft, floppy and limp when on your fork. I have not been here before and would definitely not go here again. With so many other cafes in newport to go to, I would chose somewhere else. Not worth the money

Fantastic lovely little diner excellent service

Nice quiet location for food and drink and popular with older folk who obviously know they're not overpaying for the privilege.

Lovely place. Bit pricey but worth it for a little indulgence.

Good atmosphere, tasty food and coffee for reasonable prices, place is clean, staff is friendly.

Had a jacket potato with coleslaw and cheese and it looked and tasted amazing, service was top class. The food was out so quick and effective. I will definitely be back.

Nice coffee. Not a great atmosphere.

This place is amazing. The food and the coffees are great. Our big point is the alternative milk (coconut) and it’s available but the difference from the mainstream cafés is the proper breakfast with vegan options and traditional select of quality dishes. The service is amazing, they’re not sticking to the menu, you can customize your breakfast. They’re smiling and being very polite and patient. They do table service for the dishes too. The place is huge with many tables and comfy sofas, chairs. Thank you so much for the 5-star experience to Hennadii and Hannah!

Really good breakfast and fast service. Kid friendly, plenty of high chairs.

The food was really nice and the service was great

Beautiful little cafe in the kingsway, reasonably priced, and a wide selection of food and beverages to choose from. Seating is inside and outside in the main lobby of the shopping centre, and even though it was 10am, not so busy. It does sit in and take away, so it's a good selection if you need a coffee on the way to work! I totally recommend it, and I look forward to going again.

Lovely staff and good food. I love their cheese and bacon skins - they are delicious.

Staff lovely. Teacakes were stale and coffee cappuccino was cold. Tables took a while to get cleared.

Needs to be more clean lot of dishes specially cutlery s and tea pots cups are not clean enough grabby

Lovely place for a quite coffee snack polite staff clean friendly

The food is always hot and fresh staff are very friendly

Although the coffee shop was very busy today,the staff remained polite and calm,no delay to our food and drinks which were lovely and hot and fresh as usual.Thank you

Staff are friendly and the food and drink is very good.

Good range of vegan and veggie breakfast

Great place to go for a quiet snack or lunch in the middle of Newport. With good reasonably price food, and lovely staff.

Me and my husband had beautiful slice of cake and drinks. Staff was really helpful aswell. We also had our beautiful granddaughter along for day.

Didn't eat just a catchup with friends

Absolutely appalling service, the foreign woman with the short black hair behind the till was so unhelpful, dismissive and quite frankly rude. The young girl serving the tea was also very unprofessional and seemed as though she didn't want to be there. Avoid at all costs!!!!

I love the place , it very friendly and the food is just delicious ! Recommended 🤗

Loveley place to eat and coffee great took my mam in there and will be going again .

Very good place and food is also very nice.

I decided to have a pot of tea for a change. It was a good cuppa and at nice low price. There were n't many people about the place that time but I don't hold it against them. The rest of the Kingsway area was quiet as well.

It was thirsty work being dragged around shopping for holiday outfits ;-) so we were tempted into Boswells by the look of their delicious smoothie poster and boy did they hit the spot! Service was fast and friendly, turned out my friend went to school with the girl who worked there, small world considering she was visiting! Lots of seating and very comfortable too. Nice and quiet so we could chat and we didn't feel rushed. I highly recommend the mango and pineapple smoothie - yum!

A lovely cafe. Cakes lovely and fresh. Very nice sandwiches too and nice salad with them. The sandwiches are made to order so you get the best. You definitely get your money's worth. Best of all, the staff are a lovely friendly caring bunch.

It was clean and tidy just right for a spot of lunch

A little slow, but it was busy. Could be a little more organised.

Hot chocolate are a must here go for the deluxe and the caramel latte deluxe both are less than £4.50 each large

Always great service and gorgeous coffee. The coconut milk lattes here are perfect and the food is always great for lunch

Food is always good here. Atmosphere is relaxed although a bit noisy at times. The hardest thing is finding a table to sit at to eat.

Nice place to sit with friends for a catch up, can get noisy during busy times. Food is lovely, but they should cover their pastries.

Nice place to go for fellowship and reading time with groups. Only small criticism would be the porridge - was rather thick and oaty.

Very good place for food and drinks. Friendly staff. Well worth a visit😁

Great place to eat, various meals. helpful, polite & professional staff. recommend

Friendly staff and great selection

Pricey for what you get but good overall

Nice drink b4 i go home and food

It's Such a Welcoming Eatery !

Never eaten here, but I like a pot of tea at this establishment

Just a quick lunch stop,pastie and chips

Lovely food had ham and chips didn't have to wait to long

The best thing about this cafe is the staff. They are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Service is also very quick and there's a good selection of food available. My husband particularly loves the flat white coffee.

Quick service had a coffee, clean and tidy,

Lovely staff, good home cooked food at reasonable prices and good choice of menu

Great food bit a little bit on the pricey side for what it is

Lovely staff and food was lovely my husband had cooked breakfast I had scrambled eggs on toast

Didn't eat, just had a hot drink which was fabulous

Great service , lovely smiley staff! The food was unreal.

Food and drinks good but very expensive

Very busy nice coffee and lunch

Excellent spacious cafe. Been going for years and the food is always very nicely made. Also, the service is good and friendly, and the seating is very comfortable (especially the sofas!). Plus it's always very clean in the cafe area and toilets. Can't fault the place :-)

Nice place to meet for a coffee atmosphere good service excellent

Pleasant service, clean and friendly

Decent breakfast but £1.10 for a tiny amount of mushrooms is a bit off!

Staff were friendly. Great breakfast. Thank you!

My partner and I each had a sandwich and a cake. The staff were very friendly and the food very tasty. The sandwiches were made fresh so didn't mind having to wait a little bit for them.

I've been going there for a good many years with my guide dogs. The staff always give a very good welcoming on arrival.

A very nice cosy corner feel. Standard hot/cold drinks with snack style food on offer. Pleasant professional service with good management to customer relationship. In the heart of Newport's recently redesigned shopping centre - Boswells Cafe has the ideal spot to refuel before continuing on with your shopping day. 5 top stars from me.

Friendly staff, tasty food and drinks but pretty expensive for the area.

Love the all day breakfast here !! Located in the Kingsway centre which is located a short walk from friars walk, also the multi-storey car park offers quick access to the centre

Really reliable cafe, lovely staff, great place to sit and have a coffee

Very poor service and food is not that all that spectacular

Brilliant staff, seating inside and out and vegetarian options on the menu. Definitely worth a visit.

Ok. Average coffee and slightly dry cake.

Sausage,bacon and mushroom baguette...stunning 5🌟

Got the chicken bacon cheese toastie & tuna melt toastie with a cappuccino, the cappuccino was one of the best I’ve had. food was also very nice. I’d come back, staff very friendly

Nice food and salads. The coffees are very good too. A pleasant experience.

Just a nice place to have real good food

Good coffee, cheaper than starbucks but sane quality. Lovely, friendly staff

Nice food, maybe more focus on quality of hot drinks will make place perfect

Lovely food and great people a mistake with my meal was corrected quickly and with no problem.

Big but comfortable place, efficient staff. Good selection of snacks. Has the advantage of outside tables being under a roof.

The food and staff are great . And very nice places to relax

Served by a girl called gracie, she was amazing, very kind and definitely a people's person! Wasn't too shy with the marshmallows she put on my hot chocolate aswell! 10/10 would come here again!

I normally order jacket potatoes but everything on the menu is AMAZING Totally recommend

Lovely staff nice atmosphere ,not stuffy ,good cofee not week as some coffee shops seem to think quantity over strength .

Food was very nice and they had a good variety. The staff serving were very polite. However there were a lot of tables were the food/plates/trays hadn't been cleared and it was hard to get a spare member of staff to clean and wipe down the table. When they did they used a dry cloth and were in a rush to get back to serving food. In the end i used some wet wipes i had brought elsewhere to wipe away the dried ketchup and make the table less sticky. It's a shame, as i would have put full marks had the place been cleaned more throughly and regularly during the pandemic.

Great place for a large meal or just a snack, very friendly, nothing too much trouble, food was good each time I've been,

My honeycomb coffee was lovely 5/5 for that however can't say the same about the vegetarian breakfast I had with it. Vegetarian sausage not that nice & the eggs are the worst I have ever had as underside was like rubber.

Nice products, helpful staff. Music too loud

Lovely, friendly service. Great coffee and set in the heart of the kingsway centre. Great food too

Great food, Great service. Good for a bite to eat.

Been a while since last visited this Boswell's, ordered fish and chips though was a lengthy wait (about half hour) before the food was ready. Apart from this food was nice and tasty

Absolutely lovely atmosphere, popped in for a coffee which was absolutely splendid. Staff were friendly and helpful. Ven went above and beyond to make sure our experience was as lovely as possible

Lovely place for a nice sit down and relax. Coffee and food was beautiful. Staff are super friendly, couldn’t of asked for a better experience.

Very nice hot Chocolate in a calm setting.
