Best place to go for waffles & brilliant choice of ice creams. Quite a queue for the take away, but we went straight in for a table.

Went to Cadwaladers for some ice cream after lunch. It was a nice parlour with the usual ice cream flavours. We had the raspberry ripple ice cream which was quite nice.

The excellence of its Cricieth origins is upheld and even exceeded here! It was every bit as good as I remember, and further enhanced by exceptionally welcoming and pleasant staff. The ice-cream portion was generous, and a nut topping was provided without obstruction, as had been experienced in the past. A lovely setting and atmosphere - not to be missed!

In the summer of 2021, we visited Cadwaladers in Cardiff Bay, with the intention of purchasing ice cream, whilst on a ride around Cardiff Bay on our bikes. As local residents, Cadwaladers was the place that sprung to mind, when considering options for ice cream in Mermaid Quay; not least for its vast choice of ice cream flavours. Having ridden to the café, with the bikes locked-up and our mouths watering, we approached the premises, considering which of the, many, flavours we would each like to have. Once at the front of the queue, we were greeted by the anticlimax that cash was not accepted. That was that; no ice cream for us - and no business for Cadwaladers! Having returned in 2022 - with a card - the eight months of suspense had come to an end; that was the day that we'd discover what we had missed out on. A cone of strawberry ice cream had been obtained - by card transaction, no less - and it tasted as pleasant as it had looked. The bottom line, is that Cadwaladers serve fine ice cream, however, it is only available for purchase if one is able to pay by card. It is understandable that card transactions would not be accepted if cards weren't accepted, however it seems ludicrous to me, why cash cannot be accepted; for heavens sake no such equipment as a card-machine is even required for a cash transaction! The message I would like to leave for Cadwaladers, is that they are losing out on business. I, for one, wouldn't think that this is a logical business model, however they evidently have the confidence required, as to have would-be customers walking right away from them, empty handed!

Visited this Ice Cream and Cafe place in Cardiff. They have lots of varieties of flavours. Most of their Ice creams are eggless and suitable for Vegetarians . They have vegan ice creams too. I just wish we had more days in Cardiff just to experience and explore all the different varieties. We had , Coffee Ice cream, Raspberry Ripple, Strawberry and Cream ice cream, and Jaffa Ice cream. All of them were extremely delicious. There usually is a massive queue for these ice cream's whatever the time. What I was most impressed about, was their excellent customer services and that they are very clear on their Allergy policies. They do ask of the allergies and they cater for allergies. They strictly adhere to their guidelines and policies. If anyone has any particular allergies, they will not serve you from the main counter, just in case there has been Cross-Contamination of any allergens. We were served from their storage area. I have never come across such level of service anywhere in UK and moreover, the quality of their ice creams is just superb. We could not resist the temptation and had to revisit the next day. The product and service is par-excellence .

The service was pretty good, friendly staff. We just ordered a simple lunch of toasted cheese and tomato sandwich and icecream. There was hardly any tomato and far too much cheese that was dreadful quality, tasteless and chewy. Miniscule salad on the side. Had the Greek yoghurt and strawberry icecream, which was painfully sweet with no sense of anything to do with yoghurt. Great views, but need to up their game.

Always used to love this place . However for £4.00 for a double scoop in a waffle cone this was the smallest waffle & smallest scoop of ice cream. It was literally a cup couple of mouth fulls. It was a joke. Will not be going again

Stopped here for some ice creams and coffee. Prices are ok, not too expensive. A bit disappointing that place which serves food doesn't have toilets on site. Other then that, ice cream is delicious and it's a nice place to stop for a cuppa with a sea front view.

What a loooovely bunch working here!! I love praising great service and great quality, and Cadwaladers has both! I’ve been a customer for years but it had been quite some time since my last visit. Everyone was so super friendly, helpful and also very funny there. The desserts were huge and indulgent which is exactly what we went for, and don’t regret any calories consumed that day! I had a Twix sundae number with ba-nay-nay and salted caramel ice cream… YUM!!! It was super hot and bless the staff having to work in the heat surrounded by freezers and fridges kicking out heat too, but that didn’t compromise their happy disposition or service. I told the manager in person that it was a joy to experience being there too as I couldn’t not! Of all the times I have been there, this visit was particularly memorable for the great service so deserved of a review for sure!! Thanks again to everyone working on the 19th as you were all sublime!!

Very welcoming and friendly staff who were very efficient. But the coffee was lukewarm and the cafe was cold due to the door being open the whole time on a rather cold day. This is completely unnecessary. There was nowhere comfortable to sit that wasn't in a draught. The coffee which wasn't hot went cold very quickly. Disappointing.

I was not allowed to buy an ice-cream cone for my daughter today because I did not have a bank card with me. But I did have 2.80 in cash- which is now worthless junk apparently. If this is the future of the UK then I feel very sorry for our kids. And if the owner of this establishment doesn't see how very wrong and inhuman such a policy of not accepting cash is the I feel very sorry for them.
