Coffee at 26 in Newport

Popped in for coffee with my daughter before an appointment. Really lovely welcome from the staff. Super coffee and the best vegan carrot cake I have ever had!

My friend and I visited for a hopeful chilled evening. There was a singer on too. Booked a table via the Facebook post and communication was prompt. On arrival, we were a bit worried as we were seated very close to the singer and felt that due to the small space also, it would all be a bit loud, but the volume was spot on. Great song selection and fab singer. Charcuterie board was to die for. Not too much, not too little and a good selection. Atmosphere wonderful. So chilled. Wine (pinot Grigio) was gorgeous - my friend commented on how lovely it was. We had to have a second bottle to make sure…. And the staff that were in were really amazing. Attentive and lovely but not too in your face. My friend hadn’t been to you before (I have for a cocktail and another time for a coffee and cake - both times fabulous) and she loved it. And she’s fussy! I know you can book for private parties also. I highly recommend for a day date, evening date, friends evening, self care coffee stop or party.

Have visited here several times for coffee, breakfast , afternoon tea and evening drinks and have always had great service and fabulous food combined with a beautiful interior.

Quality, strong coffee and cute, beautiful decor tipped this from a 3 to a 4 out of 5. The food and customer service left something to be desired. See the pics, we had avo on sourdough with a sausage (no eggs on the menu), the avo needed more lime and seasoning, when we asked for some salt and pepper we were told, 'its already in there but ok I'll get you some' and then gave us minimal sachets, the same happened with sugar, we felt restricted on the number of sachets we were allowed as the server literally dished them out one by one. I've never had avo mushed so much and spread on the toast before, it felt like they were trying to give us the least amount of avo possible. The menu also didn't state the balsamic glaze so what if you didn't like/want that? The sausage looked cheap, tasted ok but probably cos it reminded me of my childhood. The place is tiny which we liked, it had one large toilet and the baguettes looked delicious, we'd have a baguette and coffee (£7) if we went back.
