coast cafe in Swansea

We sat outside, coffee was nice and hot,

Lovely stop for coffee and cake whilst out walking the dog. Even dog treats available.

Really nice customer service and the staff were really kind and helpful to also you can take your dog there to when the weather gets better I'm going to take my dog there. A really good location too :)

Nice coffee shop on the waterfront. Good coffee and a few limited food items, fewer than the reviews here suggest. The soup of the day, red pepper with sourdough was pretty tasty, as were the couple of slices of cake we had. Service was friendly and efficient.

Tasty coffee, lovely staff and super pleased they had a vegan option - the cinnamon bun was delicious!

Lovely location, nice a few dog friendly tables. Service prompt. Coffee mediocre and cake absolutely tasteless.

Lovely food and coffee. The service is a little slow

A super spot for a café, overlooking the marina. Excellent food and drinks. Friendly. Good vibe.

Nous sommes entrés par hasard, mais très satisfaits de l'accueil et de la cuisine. Le pain est presque aussi bon qu'en France 😉. Des Français de passage.

Excellent food and service. Very friendly to humans and dogs. Can't recommend highly enough.

Amazing coffee, service and atmosphere. Also a big plus for me, that it’s dog’s friendly 🔥❤️

Pleasant location, nice snacks 😎

Really lovely lil cafe. And a really good price. Bought lunch for my family for about 40 pounds which was great. Had gluten free sandwiches and some cakes as well. Really cute lil place.

This is a great venue and location to grab a few minutes R&R with food and drink in comfort. Thank you guys.

Service and food taste is as a fast ❤️

I've been twice with my family recently and had a really good time on both occasions. I have also visited a number of times in the past. Staff are welcoming and friendly. Food was good, paninis and cakes. Enjoyed the coffee too. Clean changing facilities if you have little ones. Definitely recommend.

Popped in for a coffee. Not the best weather for being out and about, but met some lovely people

Really nice café with great views over the busy harbour. Staff were friendly and food quality was good. The brunch options were, however, a little limited and, if seated upstairs, going downstairs to order food and bring back drinks was a bit of a chore. Nevertheless, a good brunch option.

Only popped in for a cup of tea very nice as soon as we walked in 💯 definitely recommend, lots of setting outdoor space 😀

I return to this lovely cafe on each visit to Swansea. Great location overlooking the comings and goings of the harbour. Lovely food and coffee served by friendly staff. And always a good choice of vegan milk alternatives for my daughter.

First time here what a lovely cafe staff were really friendly toilets were spotless would highly recommend

Nice coffee, did not eat but the bacon sandwich look good.

Lovely breakfast with lots of different options. Even the jam on toast for our toddler was served on such nice thick bread, great quality. Very nice coffee too, with milk alternatives available. Pretty location on the marina with lots of outdoor seating and some indoor. Toilet facilities include baby changing which is very helpful. Highchairs available too.

Friendly staff, bacon cooked crispy as asked, great tasting coffee, happy to drink it without sugar and usually add at least one nice and relaxing on a sunny day

Really nice coffee and snacks. Use it a lot.

Excellent coffee in a fantastic venue, what more is there to say?

Didn’t have a very good experience. Ordered Antipasti Board which turned up as Patè Board. Did say however the staff said they thought they heard me say Patè board, didn’t offer to change. Then it was inedible as the ciabatta was solid like a brick. Been toasted as it was stale. Simple food not done well !!!! Wish I could share the video I took banging the solid breads on table 🤣 Coffees are fine and cakes but won’t get food in there again.

Excellent Crab Sandwich for lunch plus lovely Cappuccino! Friendly staff. Great stop off after a walk on Swansea Bay 👍

Not student-friendly. On a bank holiday day, there are not many places where a student can go and do uni work, this is one of them, not only they don't have wifi, but they won't let you charge your laptop. We bought some coffees and were doing some work on the laptops, mine need charging, but the barista made me unplug the charger. I won't be back to that place anytime soon.

Good coffee. Friendly staff. Nice location close to the marina and beach.

Great hot choc and dog friendly lovely stop off whilst walking the bay

Delicious coffee and awesome service!

What a gem of a cafe! Friendly staff, great coffee and lovely atmosphere watching the world go by!

I visited this lovely little cafe for the first time on Wednesday 15/2/23. I had taken my car in to Mercedes Benz, Swansea to have some work carried out. As I was walking back to the garage,I passed by,and decided to call in for a coffee,as I had some spare time. I was delighted with the quality of both the coffee,and slice of cake,as well as the welcome and service. I decided to sit upstairs,which was almost at full capacity. I was made very welcome by the regular customers,and found a table to sit at. The views are pleasant,and I am sure that on a fine Spring or Summers day,it would be even better! I would highly recommend this establishment,and will most definitely be calling again on my next visit to Swansea. My best wishes to the owners!!

Beautiful coffee shop overlooking the marina. Very comfortable and modern environment with reasonable prices 🙂 will definitely visit again! 10/10

Good spot in the Swansea Marina. Cosy corners and lots of good outside space.

This is a lovely place to stop for refreshments on a walk around the SA1 waterfront and marina. They serve nice coffee, ice cream, cakes, toasted tea cakes, panini and other light refreshments. Highly recommended. Indoor and outdoor seating, and a clean toilet. Large selection of dairy free alternatives for hot drinks. Dog friendly, with dog treats to purchase.

What a lovely place, and our dog could come in too. Lovely food excellent breakfast. Try the American pancakes in syrup beautiful.

Great place to meet up for a cuppa & chat.

Always like the great service and food here ! Finally took my husband as well 😉 he liked it !

Lovely coffee and food . Dogs allowed but only downstairs. Lovely staff !!

WENT TO SIT INSIDE WITH OUR THERAPY TRAINED DOG AND WAS TOLD HE IS NOT PERMITTED TO BE INSIDE WITHOUT A LEAD AND WE WERE TOLD TO LEAVE (THE BLOKE NEEDS TO ADJUST HIS ATTITUDE TO THE WAY HE SPEAKS TO CUSTOMERS ) WOULD OF KICKED OFF AT HIM BUT DIDNT WANT TO SPOIL OUR BEECH WALK. PAID OVER £ 3.00 EACH FOR TWO TAKEAWAY HOT CHOCOLATE DRINKS WHICH WERE COLD IN 5 MINS WILL DEFINITELY NOT RETURN. ALSO PUT A SIGN AT FRONT OF YOUR CAFE SAYING NO DOGS INSIDE WITHOUT LEADS INSTEAD OF BEING ARRAGONT AND LOOSING CUSTOMERS

Beautiful food and the staff are so friendly and polite. Dog friendly also which is a bonus. Love coming here for a coffee.

Nice cafe with views of the lock

Lovely team, lovely location and lovely sweet treats. The team were also very helpful with allergen advice on their food.

Visiting this area and specifically chose this cafe as it was dog friendly and independent. However we were very abruptly informed as we were going upstairs that they only allow dogs downstairs and outside… the limited seating downstairs was full and no way were we going to sit outside on a wet and windy October day. So the five of us and the dog went and spent our money at a non independent cafe where we had a warm welcome and fantastic food.

Great if all you want is a good coffee and a really nice cake. Some cakes are gluten free too.

The cafe was empty and looked like a office building I was just waiting for Ricky Gervais to serve me but it looked like a student I don't know which is the worst option. Had a brief glance at the menu it was 4.75 for a bacon sandwich in bloomer which is the Victorian name for women's knickers. Definitely a tourist trap but as a local I wasn't willing to get trapped. I went further down the marina and found a lovely cafe all home made by the chef half the price twice the friendliness and will stick with that.

pleasant surroundings with views over the marina area , enjoyable food snacks & various drinks available .

Delightful venue well worth the visit food excellent staff helpful and friendly nice stay for even having just a coffee

Fantasic bacon sandwich one of the best. Great staff very popular

Had coffee, apple juice and a brownie, all very good. I was seated upstairs and staff checked in regularly and cleared tables and such Although i carried the tray upstairs myself, i didn't feel secure enough to carry it downstairs afterwards due to mobility issues. Before i could go downstairs to ask someone to get the tray(they clear the tables anyway, i'm pretty sure, but back then I didn't think about it), a member of staff came upstairs and offered to take it. Genderneutral and accessible bathroom, really appreciate that :D

Nice spot - dog friendly- tasty panini- friendly staff

Only went in had ice cream and sat inside it was much cooler and had the ice cream and enjoyed the view

Always great coffee and food. Very friendly staff 👌🏻Dogs welcome 🐶❤️

No salt or pepper, only for use in the kitchen ! This is a cafe and ,£1.65 for a slice of brown bread. Won't be going there again.

First visit here on a break from work. Lovely cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Yummy cakes and coffee. Will definitely be back!

Nice coffee and cake on the river side

Nice position, clean and tidy. My granddaughter loved the ice cream but the tea I had was quite pricey

Hot chocolate was lovely, staff were friendly and premises nice and clean

Great service, great location and great people. The cafe offers a lot of options - including ice cream that we enjoyed in the sun. The staff are friendly and helpful. A great atmosphere for everyone.

Excellent Marina Café, overlooking Tawe Lock, with lovely, helpful manager/owner, Beccy. Great coffee!

Nice coffee Great service and pet friendly Nice sandwiches lovely cakes

Good coffee lovely staff plenty of outside seating dog friendly

Wonderful friendly staff! The menu is small but has a selection of delicious light bites and the coffee is delicious. A really cute little place.

The drinks were delicious! Nothing was too pricy and the place has a really nice, cute, cozy vibe, facing the docks. The only thing that bugged me was that there were a lot of bugs and next to no ventilation. Would recommend on a breezy evening for a nice warm drink!

Delicious cakes and tea made in a pot with loose leaves.

Very nice coffee shop and excellent staff. It's in the marina, it has inside and outside sitting areas.

Favourite cosy corner of the marina for a cuppa and toasted teacake, and chill time

Absolutely love this beautiful cafe, dog friendly and the cakes etc at to die for. A huge range of hot drinks and cold

Service excellent 👌 coffee ☕ 👍 cake are moreish have one you want another 😋 very clean place staff very helpful

Great. We pop here for a cheeky coffee on our bike rides. Staff are friendly, coffee is great. There is a loyalty card, buy 9, get the 10th cup free. There's seating inside and outside and a great view of the marina. Doggy friendly too!

Lovely cafe on the harbour side. Very friendly staff and atmosphere.

Gorgeous coffee place with GF options along the marina. Friendly staff and beautiful decor. Thank you!

Terrible customer service! My partner and I just went into the cafe and were told there was a 20 minute wait for food, which is fine if they’re understaffed or something. We told the Scottish guy at the till that we’d walked 20 minutes to get there and only had 25 minutes of our lunch break left, and before my partner had chance to finish her sentence he butted in and said, “There’s nothing I can do about that.” We were quite surprised at his response and simply turned to leave, and then to compound his poor attitude, as we were leaving he said, “Oh, you’ll be fine.” Perhaps a better response (after waiting for my partner to finish speaking) would have been, “OK, I’ll see if there’s anything we can do for you.” Even if that had been followed up with a “no” and an apology, we would have left disappointed but reasonably happy. Instead, we’ll never go there again.

Lovely little café with really nice and helpful staff. Highly recommended :)

A lovely spot, good coffee and the cakes were fantastic.

A really nice café in Swansea. Ideally located and very lovely and helpful staff.

Always feel this place is a bit overlooked. Great coffee and pastries and dog friendly. Go for a walk on the beach and pip in for a coffee, ild recommend it.

Very welcoming and friendly staff. Great with our dogs and brought an extra chair over for us. The food was lovely and the dogs enjoyed their icecream

If you're in the marina and need a coffee fix then this is the go to place. Staff couldn't be friendlier, they sell cakes by local independent bakers and the panini's are on another level.

Good crispy bacon butty & coffee. Dogs are welcome.

Nice place to have a nice coffee nd watch the world go by!!! 😎👍

Finally found it after a long detour round the marina, the bridge in front of it is closed. But well worth it. I ordered breakfast pancakes with syrup and bacon and they were delicious and beautifully presented. Sat outside as inside was a bit busy, nice tables and unbrellas right on the waterfront. Service polite and fast. Not cheap but worth every penny.

I was visiting from Canada 🇨🇦 and the staff was amazing

Been several times before. Plenty of free tables inside, staff said we are full if you want something you'll have to sit outside. Staff attitude rude and lazy. Wont be returning. Found coffee fresco not far from there. Much nicer staff and food

Love the owner.. cool place to escape to..

All the staff are great. The management are really friendly. The coffee is great. Use the cafe regularly

Quick stop off for coffee and cake at this cute cafe we happened to come across on a walk. Really friendly staff and amazing views!

Friendly staff and excellent service and foid

Lovely stop off for a coffee whilst walking my dog freidly staff also you can take your dog in fabulous I love it

Fabulous location, lovely food and drinks

Nice view over the harbour, decent stylish interior good coffee and snacks

Lovely food and staff, brilliant that I could bring my dog, but not enough seats to sit inside, but we sat outside but it was still lovely x

Extremely overpriced coffee - have tried coffee shops from SA1 through to Brynmill and this certainly is more expensive than any other.

Lovely little cafe. Staff friendly, great food and drinks. Always happy to do takeaways. Dog also very welcome!

It was my first time here, and I highly recommend! Friendly staff, tasty dishes, nice and calm atmosphere. Like the location, nice for a break having a stroll through the Marina. Nice views from the both levels too. Will definitly be back! 😊

great place with delicious cakes :)

Claims to be dog friendly but they are only allowed down stairs where only 3 table are set up. Others without dogs were also using them meaning many people traveled there only to be told there was no room. Ordered drink to sit outside in the wind and rain after making the trip to get there. Caramel latte tasted burnt. Hot chocolate was however very nice as where the cakes.

After a family walk around the marina with my mother who was visiting from Bristol on a cold November morning. We found a table upstairs with ease, I ordered my drinks and found the staff to be welcoming and chatty with customers. The customer service the staff delivered was outstanding and could not have been improved. Thank you to the Scottish guy (didn’t catch his name) for the book shop recommendations.
