Cafe Fresco in Rhondda Cynon Taf

Only passed this place i actually went next door to the florist

Went in for my free coffee and was greatly surprised, the coffee was strong but not bitter and tasted wonderful. The cafe is very clean, tidy and presentable with plenty of seating. The staff are dressed to a high standard and the food looks and smells amazing. Would highly recommend this cafe. EDIT.... Just been back in after many years and the place is still as great. It's had a lovely makeover which has bought the deco up to modern times. The food is fantastic. I ordered a big breakfast to which I had a free serving of chips, could not fault that. I couldn't finish the breakfast as it was so big. The lovely waitress is so polite and is a credit to the business. I will defo be going back again soon.

Went for light lunch and hot drinks today about 22:15. Very busy downstairs but then I always go upstairs when like this. Plenty is spare tables. Ordered a chicken&mayo baguette & coffee & my wife had special breakfast ie choice of 4 items plus toast + hot chocolate. We shared a bowl of chips too which even then was too much to manage. About 17.50 total. Very pleased . Quick service considering the busyness. Love the original wall frescos of well known Ponty landmarks. Only the 1 toilet so may have to wait a while but clean !

Been visiting our sister Pam in Treorchy called before catching the train to Doncaster, drinks plus teacakes was beautiful next visit will make time to have a meal. Thankyou 🤗x

Good basic foods are very popular with people, friendly staff, the meal was fine with no complaints, l will try something different next time.

Absolutely lovely Cafe compared to the past cafe... Only reason iv given them 3 stars for the food is.. They mutelated my sausage 😲 I'm not a 5 year old child that needs marks in my food to show me where to cut.... 🤣 And call me fickle but I really like a runny egg 🥚 Ohhhhh and it's not a breakfast.. It's brunch drop the chips and add another egg

Great place for a full brekkie, quick service delivery and polite staff. Spotlessly clean

As a family we love this cafe. It's small, modern with an Italian twist. There's a variety of breakfast choices, large portions at good prices.

Our favourite cafe, food is great and staff are lovely

Can't wait to return. Best cooked breakfast around!

Great place to eat. Beware! Big portions mmm

Always good for food, very clean and friendly staff

Friendly helpful staff, spotlessly clean, bright and child friendly. Their black coffee has quite an intense flavour in a nice way. They also take cash unlike so many antisocial places these days.

Lovely place great choice of food and drink

Food and service is perfect here and the toilets and cafe area are spotless. Very impressed and will always be back for more ❤️

Breakfast was lovely fair play to them staff ok and helpful toilet clean and tidy only thing is not allowed to flush toilet roll

Al Fresco is available when the sun is out

Great food and fantastic service. My daughter left her purse there and they were excellent in making it available to us.

Came here today for the first time and I will definitely be going again food was amazing.. customer service was spot on the staff were friendly all round 10-/10 for me

Best breakfast we've had! Lovely place, will definately be back again soon.

Haven't been here for a good long while and the brekfast was top tier the staff were great also , highly recommend.

Great café - cash only - everything prepared fresh. Good value.

Lovely set breakfast and polite and friendly staff.

First time here and waw the food was amazing, the staff were friendly and place looked clean and tidy

Absolutely love this place... good central location ... lovely staff... fab food... Just wish they would accept card payments... however it doesn't stop me from going most weekends 😁

Been here several times before, no problems. We went in, told it was table service. Sat at table, staff standing round chatting. After over 10 mins being ignored, got up walked, took our custom elsewhere. Won't be going back.

Absolutely brilliant the staff was brilliant and kind, me and my mum had prawn jacket potato and it was spectacular plus the toilet was clean not a spec of dirt anywhere

Absolutely stunning food, lovely people and such a great dining experience!! Venue is really clean and beautifully decorated making our stay a welcome one 👍 We will definitely be coming back to try the wide variety of options on the menu. See you soon cafe fresco!! X

Staff are always very polite and friendly. Food is excellent and good value for money. Highly recommend.

Amazing place, amazing food, amazing staff. The owner is awesome and so polite.

Nice surroundings, polite staff & food very nice. Never fee rushed.

My sister and myself had food here for the first time today. It was fresh and hot and we both agreed it was really enjoyable food. The staff were also lovely and the cafe was spotlessly clean. We will definitely be going again!

Great little modern cafe in pontypridd Town centre. Will be visiting again soon

I'm truly disappointed with this place. A few veggie options but nothing to slap you in the face. The veggie breakfast which is 4 types of potatoes a cpl of fried eggs and a tiny portion of mushrooms is the same price as the huge plate of dead animal. The coffee was it's saving grace and is why its got 3 stars instead of 2.

Lovely food. Quick as well . Me and my work mates were in early and all agreed lovely food and service. We be back next week.

Have been a regular here since it opened. Lovely food, reasonably priced. Staff courteous and helpful and are to be commended for taking social distancing rules seriously during the ongoing pandemic. Thanks.

Really enjoyed my cooked breakfast but to much fat left on the baco and the egg once wiped off stunning

Great traditional cafe. Good value tasty food served quickly and hot. Friendly staff obviously experienced and very good at their jobs.

I love this cafe, staff are always welcoming and polite. There's plenty of space, you can eat inside or out great place for a relaxing lunch or quick coffee break

Good food and service at a reasonable price

A little bit inconvenient that they only take cash, but when I visited they only freshly reopened after lockdown. While I went out to get cash my seat was taken and I was advised to go upstairs which was completely empty so the atmosphere was not quite what I expected. But I'm sure when they're back to normal it is a lovely place

Absolutely Excellent Three of us go in every Friday morning we love it there Great staff great service

Very nice food and very friendly staff. And very clean. I recommend it.

Popped in for a breakfast. Had the big breakfast which was really good. Can't fault it and the service is great. Will return when we shift out of Tier 4 :)

Good food & it's clean in there. However waitress asked for brown toast then white arrived. She was told as was a cook there but no brown arrived after 15 minutes. I asked for a refund & a £1 coin was impolitely placed down on the table with a clear attitude anything but apologetic. Further, cash only these days is not protecting of customers.

Lovely poached egg, only downside it contained a side salad not really to my liking. But heyho we are all different

What a lively little place this is !! Had a couple of coffee's here and very good too 👍. A couple of weeks later tried the menu, superb omelette and a very fresh salad and it was very nice indeed.. Polite service, and spotlessly clean. A little gem !!! Thumbs up from me !!!!!!

Always great service with friendly staff

Food was great friendly service,

Food is always served as quickly as quickly as possible here and good portions. Food always seems fresh and not like other places that serve leftovers. Friendly polite staff and clean place with good atmosphere. Upstairs area is large size and just as pleasant as donstairs. Great coffee as well.

Nice shop Nice food. Nice to work

Best place in pontypridd for a coffee or breakfast very clean and friendly staff the only place I'll go

Fast, fabulous food and drink and friendly service!

Been here a few times and always love the food! Comes out so quickly and lovely and fresh definitely recommend 👌🏻

Lovely clean cafe. Friendly staff and good food

This is the best cafe the food is always freshly cooked and really nice the cafe is really clean and the staff are lovel.

Plenty on the plate, always tasty. Good service & very clean in there. Average prices for town. I just wish other customers would close the door after them or staff keep an eye on that door better to make sure it's closed in the cold weather. Maybe some sort of auto close would be good?

Went there for breakfast, good range of food on offer and reasonable prices. Recommend.

Popped in here for lunch with my wife today. Very nice chicken burger and chips. My wife had egg and chips. We both enjoyed our food it was very nice we also had a hot chocolate and a cappuccino. Would come in here again. The place was nice and clean.

Great cafe with great food and service.

First visit today and a nice find in Pontypridd. Also a good portion of food to eat, I noticed the staff cleaned the tables very quick which makes a change to some places i go to.

Staff so friendly. Food is amazing and cooked to order. Their breakfast is to die for

Working in Pontypridd and looking for place to eat, there are Greggs and Costa and small Cafes, but nothing grabbed me, until walking passed Cafe Fresco, It was busy, a good sign I thought, I ordered nd was told there was more seating up stairs. The cafe is spotless and fresh. The food could not be faulted together with a lovely cup of coffee. A definite must to stop and call into while shopping in Ponty.

Omg what a great place to eat we had a beautiful breakfast here on Christmas Eve. Clean, tidy and food was exceptional. Well worth a visit 👍❤️👍

Went in today with my baby lovely just no place to put a pram and we friend Mam enjoy just should make room for peas maybe

I've been coming to Pontypridd every week for 6 years and had no idea this was here. What a find!!! Clean and inviting. Food amazing and the best cup of latte I have ever had. One thing to note is cash only but my bee favourite coffee shop

Food amazing always nicely presented lovely friendly staff

Lovely place friendly staff and a good breakfast.

We were hungry, we were walking past, it looked nice, we weren’t disappointed! Lovely food, great service, fantastic price! What’s not to like!? 😁 Fully recommended. Try it today!

Constantly consistent with they're food and the full breakfast is never greasy... cash only

Lovely place to have food. Excellent menu choice and huge portion sizes at a reasonable price. Very pleasant and helpful staff and quick service. Would definitely recommend and return.

Great food reasonably priced quick efficient service

I found them very friendly.They do a mean latte.Their chicken curry is amazing..

The one thing my husband wanted when we came to the U.K. was a full English breakfast, and Cafe Fresco did not disappoint! They had a delightful array of breakfast options, as well as burgers and other such lunches. I had a breakfast sandwich and a latte and was impressed by both. Definitely recommend stopping here if you’re in Pontypridd for breakfast!

The food is always good.and hot

Lovely fresh food, my Mum loves the friendly staff and her lovely breakfast with fried bread, highly recommended

After an early trip to the lido we were looking for a place for breakfst - Cafe Fresco didn't disappoint! Everything was perfect. The coffee is delicious and the staff are friendly & helpful. Speedy service and it's very clean. We'll definitely be back!

Not impressed overall by the breakfast. Excellent coffee, nice clean cafe, sausages were more filler than meat and bacon very salty. Wouldn't have a breakfast from there again.

Good coffee great prices and friendly staff good atmosphere and great food

I was in the are Monday and Wednesday, wanted breakfast and decided on this place, very inviting, very clean, friendly service, nice atmosphere, Breakfasts were excellent and much enjoyed, highly recommended.

Good place and very good food. ;)

Highly recommend the veggie all day breakfast. I had 2 veggie sausages, 2 hash browns, 2 potato croquettes, chips, 4 big tomatoes, and 2 eggs... I very slowly waddled home...

Excellent food and very friendly and helpful staff. Fabulous coffee.we usually go for breakfast which is always grea

Great place tucked away in the side street in Pontypridd. Always have the Avocado supreme. Service great, food is really fresh and tasty. Good value and great service. Highly recommend

Great food, lots of choice and friendly staff.

Went here back in may for a first time visit for all of us and was very impressed with everything, the layout is pretty good and lighting is spot on all of our meals were tasty and salad portions were tremendous I will definitely be visiting again soon
