Cadwaladers in Bridgend

Visited today for a coffee and decided to have a pancake stack. Plenty of choices of toppings and flavours. So I decided to have the biscoff option. 3 large warm pancakes smothered in biscoff sauce with 2 huge scoops of ice cream- 1 vanilla and 1 biscoff, all sprinkled with biscoff biscuits and some squirts cream! Delicious and a generous portion! Cappuccino was perfect too! Customer service was excellent, the staff are friendly and provide a quick service, would definitely recommend 😁

Nice place and very clean and tidy,. We came in at 4pm and ordered pretty much straight away but were told abruptly that they close in an hour. I'm nott sure how long the waitress thought we needed to eat some ice cream. I found my pancake stack very plain, I had the biscoff one and was very disappointed with it. It lacked sauce and the vanilla ice cream that came with it also tasted like the cheapest of the cheap vanilla with ice crystals in it. Mogsy belle and haystack do a much better one. My iced mocha float however was nice and I'd order that again happily. My nan had the banana split and said that was nice and my mum had a Sunday which she also enjoyed.

Another pleasant afternoon lunch with Harvey Dog. I love coming here. As a single traveller there is enough going on around you so you do not feel alone. Yet enough time and space to enjoy your solitude. The surroundings are pleasant with white wall's, upliighting, teal trim, wood panels and mixed seating options. Seating would suit the many to the few. The ice cream here is to die for, today I am being good. It can get very busy, which is good for them. Has a seafront location with outdoor tables which are few and a bonus on those days I am not being do good. Harvey Dog is more than welcome, so all in all it is a win win. Plus they have a loyalty card for this chain.

My wife and I and our dog Shelley come here regularly. Nice food and drinks served by lovely welcoming staff. Always pleased to see us and what a great place it is. Come rain or shine it's always a pleasure to be here. Good selection of ice-cream, even a choice for Shelley. We treated ourselves on pancake day to a pancake stack each and a doggy ice-cream for Shelley. Highly recommended for families and dog walkers.

Food ok but the staff are awful. Wouldn't let us sit on a table for 4 (there were 3 of us). Then told us in an abrupt manner to move the child's buggy. Loads more welcoming places in Porthcawl. I suggest you try one of them.

We enjoyed stopping here for some ice cream after a walk along the front. Even our dog was catered for with her own special ice cream. Service was fast and friendly. We were able to sit on a table out front with a great view.

Myself my husband and stepson called in to the Cafe this morning initially left standing by the till then told to find a table with a green tick before ordering. There were a couple of tables for two and one for a table for 5 and several that needed clearing. We went to sit at table for 5 but was told by member of staff that we couldn't we were left standing there no offer to clear a table for 3! for us. We felt very unwelcome so we left. Hygiene might be excellent but customer service left a lot to be desired.

We stopped by on a whim after going for a wet and windy walk. Three toasties ordered and a toasted tea cake. The toasties were very tasty and came with a simple side salad and a whole bag of crisps. Only slight negative is that the food arrived before our hot drinks and the table was a little small for four diners to eat comfortably. Definitely worth a stop for a good lunch.

Lovely coffee, service OK. Wasn't made aware at time of purchasing of Loyalty card, too late to add points after transaction. Didn't mind paying by card (this was the ONLY option available) but what really irked was the tip bowl PRESUMABLY FOR CASH right next to cards only sign. Personally don't m8nd tipp8ng occasionally, but if companies prefer cashless transactions, then 7snt it a bit contradictory to expect tips in coin/note format.

Popped in for a quick coffee break. very comfortable seating. Coffee was served hot and timely. A little pricey but everything is nowadays.

It was raining so we called in for a coffee and bacon sandwich.. The service was so slow, we forwent the sandwich. Continental staff really take an interest - why can't home grown folk follow.

Great little gem service was great food and drinks spot on couldn't complain about anything 8 of us and everything was perfect

Will always recommend Cadwaladers to everyone! Always have such a lovely experience here, the staff couldn’t be more friendly! Our new favourite spot in Porthcawl

The best place to have a coffee and a bite to eat in Porthcawl. The loveliest, friendliest staff who will always have a chat with you and give your dog a massive fuss. Highly recommend

excellent service, very polite young man who served us. Dog friendly, lovely food and drinks. Would 100% visit again very much recommend you visit here. Stunning view of the seafront too.

We visited here Saturday morning. Stood at the sign which says please wait to be seated for ages before anybody acknowledged us. We were given filthy menus - looked like something had been spilt on them. Asked for them to be cleaned, the girl tutted. After waiting ages to order, we said to one of the girls we were ready and were told we had to go up to the counter. It would be helpful if this was explained or there was a sign up. My mum ordered a latte but then asked for it to be cancelled and ordered an orange juice instead. The girl said this was fine. The latte was still brought to the table, when we pointed out we changed it to an orange juice she took it away and brought a glass of orange, slammed it in the table. We thought the glass was going to smash. My drink was forgotten altogether too. I ordered apple juice, when It didn’t come and I asked for it I was told they’d run out. Why weren’t we told this when we ordered and paid for it. It wasn’t busy either. You really need to train your staff properly. Won’t be rushing back. Very poor.

Give this place a miss for ice-cream unless you don't mind paying way over the odds for the ice cream the scoop isn't much bigger than a spoon the tub is without doubt the smallest you can buy and the price is extremely high which you will see if you just look before committing to buy have a walk to the Supermarket and save yourself enough money for ice cream and a drink has well.

Nicest ice cream I’ve had in a while. Very friendly staff. Will recommend and will definitely be coming back.

In Porthcawl with my mother/stepfather; stopped at Cadwaladers for a late, light lunch. Really pleased with the quality & quantity of food, at really good prices. The baked potato with tuna was amazing - a full sized meal, esp. as it came with salad &...

Delicious milkshakes and pizzas! My husband and I visited today, in fact we are regular visitors with our children as well. Staff are already helpful and the food is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

Hardworking staff and good customer service, put the punter first and nothing is too much trouble. Will be back for more sundaes soon !

No idea about. Disability. OK about leaving you standing for a good while even though it's impossible to socially distance when you use a white cane. Any requests on ordering ignored. Covid arrangements poor due to delay in seating people. Sometimes at least 10 minutes....

I am a regular at Cadwallader's and local to Porthcawl. However today when attending with my sister the greeting from the waitress was unfriendly and rude. My sister enquired whether vegan fillings were available in the jacket potato. The response was extremely unfriendly and when...

Good to see a vast improvement on the last owners, where you had kids running it and effectlively killed thsi place off. Dogs are allowed, which is so good for all concerned, and staff are great too.

My friend and I visited this place three times over the weekend. Nice, simple food at a decent price. Good old baked potatoes, bacon butties, toasties etc. Lots of tea choices and my friend ended up having three vegan hot chocolates because they were so...

Very pleasant for hot drinks and light snacks, tables cleaned and well marked between guests, social distancing adhered too. Staff Martine and Jess most efficient.

Even the whipped cream is vegan! I'm not vegan but somewhat lactose intolerant- so it was an utter treat. Every member of their team greeted me and the guests with warmth x a second time, I meandered here as I was treated horribly in the...

I regularly stop at cadwladers whenever in wales and it never disappoints. The kinder bueno ice cream is brilliant. Being a person who has ice cream everywhere i know a good ice cream, and this one is top notch. The other thing i particularly enjoy...

This venue is a relative newcomer to Porthcawl. I was already aware of the original buiding in Criccieth and the superb reputation of its icecream. We visit quite often and sit on the terrace to take in the view in the sunshine. Staff members are...

Great coffee great service great sandwiches will use again didn't feel rushed like a lot of places can't fault

Went today for lunch, fab service and lovely staff. The prices are very reasonable and the food was delicious :)

Had a lovely coffee and on another day, a milkshake, just as I remember them! Also had pizzas which were freshly made and grandsons enjoyed their ice creams.

Amazing service, amazing food and fantastic coffee. Highly recommend the staff are lovely wouldn't go anywhere else.

Walked out, furious.. appalling service. Sat there like lemons.. given menus and then that was it. No drinks order taken let alone a food order. Utterly crap. Don't have a beach front cafe if you can't cope. Wasn't even busy btw, 4 staff, 5 tables...

Came here for vegan sundaes and we were not disappointed. We got the knickerbocker glory. There are quite a few vegan options. Definitely will visit again.

Excellent. Welcoming. Ice Sundaes perfection. Top quality ice cream. Excellent service. Indoor and outdoor seating. There are a few steps to get in. At the sea front.

A beautiful sunny Wednesday so decided to take a run to Porthcawl for a much awaited coffee at our favourite "Pietro's" on the sea front. We haven't visited Porthcawl since well before the pandemic so were surprised to see that Pietro's has been replaced by...

Items took thirty minutes to start to arrive and 20 minutes start to finish - chased up 2 item as we wanted to leave and they were basically just drop on the plates on the table

Never disappointed! Amazing quality drinks and ice cream every time we go, never had an issue. The staff are so lovely and friendly whenever we visit. The price reflects the quality, definitely our new favourite place in Porthcawl.

We were lucky to get a table that someone had just vacated and for our own peace of mind we wiped it down with our own sanitiser cloth. However, during the time we were there all of the remaining 5 outside tables were vacated and...

Quick Pitstop in old haunt but new owners. Only had quick brews but in these times there was good hygiene in place and table spacing. The staff were helpful and welcoming. But coffee was up to usual high standard; hot and tasty, and my tea...

First visit since change of ownership, its in a super spot and it was a glorious day. We ordered coffee and a toastie, unfortunately the coffee was returned as it was only lukewarm, and a fresh cup arrived long after we had finished our meal....

Great little cafe right on the porthcawl seafront with a beautiful view of the sunset. Great atmosphere with friendly and mindful staff. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and few other places do a better flat white!

This is a really nice new cafe with a great view of the sea-front, as someone who drinks a ridiculous amount of coffee I can say it was a 10/10, cannot reccomend highly enough, and the staff are eeeven more lovely!

The best coffee is now in Porthcawl, I’m glad it’s moved closer to me so I don’t have to drive to Barry to get my fix

Amazing service and food. Would definitely recommend! Nathan served us and was very polite, and the coffee was the best. Would 100% go back

Visited here for the first time since it opened, wish I went sooner. I most certainly will be back! Fab coffee and great service.

Cadwaladers are, at least, the third owners that we have encountered in nearly 50 years of visiting this cafe/ icecream parlour, so our first visit with the new owners was not only disappointing but making it feel like the end of an era for us....

The coffee was top notch and the service was excellent, nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were very polite and friendly

Fantastic ice-cream sundaes, with a lot of variety of Vegan and Gluten-free products! Really enjoyed our knickerbocker glory’s! And the coffee is delicious😋

Was in town on business so popped in for a coffee and to catch up on emails. Great setup, covid safe, fast WiFi and excellent coffee

My partner and I took 3 of our grandchildren for a tea time treat and treat it was. The exotic smoothie was delicious and the 3 yr old adored her hot chocolate. We had 3 pizzas between us,delicious crispy base and loads of stringy melted...
