First breakfast spot i tried in Cardiff on my little trip there and so happy that i chose this place to have breakfast! Such a pretty and cozy place. The workers there are sooo nice and helpfull. The food was soooo good! They even had glutenfree options, the glutenfree brownie was heavenly! The best breakfast i had in the UK and i even went to the Ritz in London. They deff deserve this review. ;)

Visited this establishment a few times over the past few years. Situated in Castle St. Arcade it is a comfortable relaxed ambiance. Staff are welcoming and friendly. I love the decor and commend the use of recovered building materials and furniture. Decent sized portions of quality local produce. Salty butter on granary toast……yum. Great coffee. Also worth checking out the sister restaurant in one of the other (many) arcades in Cardiff. A visit to Coffee Barker when in Wales is always on my list. You guys didn’t disappoint. Keep it up. Thanks

One of Cardiff's best and coziest coffee shops I think. Tucked away down Castle Arcade, serves really good coffee and bits to go with it. If you're lucky enough to get one of the more cozier seats or booths, you could find yourself not wanting to leave. Turns into Rum & Fizz bar in the night, which is also a great place to head for on a night out

Having visited many times before we called in for a coffee and cake. After sitting down we recalled what we had paid and did a double take, checking if there had been a mistake. No prices are displayed so we had to find a menu which listed coffee at £3.80 and a piece of cake at £5.50! The cake was nothing special. I would advise checking the menu for prices to avoid any surprises.

What a great coffee shop in the heart of Cardiff. I found this place because of Google and so glad I did. I would go as far to say the best looking coffee shop I have ever seen. Really unique decor. Breakfast was a whopping £16.49 which is quite expensive for an English breakfast but it did taste really good. Follow this up with a latte and I was a happy chappy. Staff were really great and friendly. Such a great atmosphere and ambience. I will definitely be back!!!

Unfortunately, I have had to update my initial 5 star review due to two changes made in recent months. Coffee Barker is now cashless and therefore discriminates against older customers & those who understand the dangers of a cashless society. They also replaced the nice Coffee cups with glasses, but that's just my own personal taste.

Popped in to this gorgeous coffee shop for a coffee and cake mid afternoon. The decor is stunning and there is such a lovely vibe about the place. It was heaving and we did well to find a table. I had a chai latte and it was the best I’ve ever had. Apparently the coffees and hot chocolates were also excellent as was the cake. Very friendly waiting staff. Definitely the coffee shop to be in when in central Cardiff.

Coffee Barker had atmosphere from the start. We were looking for a place to have a coffee as tourists to Cardiff and we happened across this place in the arcade. To get into the coffee shop we walked further into the narrow street of the Arcade and the view was stunning ✨👌🖼️ We went inside and luckily grabbed a seat right next to the window where we could enjoy more of the view 👀 The atmosphere on the inside was warm and intimate. If you wanted to caption the vibe it would be the whole industrial dark academia ✒️ We got a whole ye olde bronze lamp on our table, added to the feel, and everybody loves a repurposed bottle. Long live vases 💐 COFFEE WISE ☕ The coffee was great and the service was quick. It took the entirety of ONE MINUTE for the coffee to arrive from the bar to the table. Couldn't have been any faster 🏃‍♂️💨 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is a beautiful cafe in an amazing location. I revisited due to the quality of the food I experienced last year when visiting Cardiff. What a disappointment! I just had 2 fried eggs on gluten free toast as I'm celiac. One egg was overcooked with hard yoke, the other egg was strange, it was half and half with yoke and the white was the same. Very clever to achieve an over and under cooked egg. It was made to look fancy with a bit of garnish and spice. The bread, you can get some great quality gluten free bread now from a bakers so had expected chunky toast like advertised, instead I had thin bread that was like cardboard to eat and far from toasted. I had to take off the eggs to put the very nice butter (only good bit) to make it pallitable. I was very hungry and had waited a while so ate it and thought, my last visit. I was going to return with hubby tomorrow before going home but it just isn't worth the money. It wasn't cheap! I now can see why it's not as busy as last year. Sorry guys but you just didn't produce the goods this time.

Breakfast- very poor and very expensive. Rock hard sausage, overcooked bacon, rubbery eggs, watery beans. Good toast , butter pat and coffee. £16.50 without coffee. Overstaffed bar. Perfunctory, blank, indifferent bar service. Give this place a swerve. Nobody there cares.

Lovely atmosphere and décor, staff also seem kind. However, food is pricy (£20 for full breakfast and a pot of tea) so I was expecting the standard to be high! However, bacon was really overcooked and completely inflexible, the sausage I think was either overcooked or had freezer burn as it was tasteless and chewy on the skin, and the scrambled eggs were pretty bland and arrived cold, as were the mushrooms. I’m really not a fussy eater, I didn’t have time to eat again before a busy day, so reluctantly finished my plate - the absolute saving grace was the (I’m assuming!) locally made doorstop bread and butter! Really delicious! If the chef is looking for honest feedback I hope this helps - I think it’d also be nice to be offered a choice of what eggs to cook with the breakfast. I’m sure however it’s a lovely place to bask in the atmosphere with a good book and a coffee :)

this was my second visit to coffee barker, having the exact same breakfast, and i can safely say that it has been consistently amazing. you can tell the ingredients are of great quality, the bacon is thick and cooked crispy, the sausages are herby and tasty, and the scrambled eggs are creamy and lush! the star of the show is, and always will be, the toast! super thick cut (you can tell) homemade bread, that could almost bring a tear to my eye at how good it is! my only downfall is that the beans are a bit thin for me, i personally prefer mine to be more thicker and stodgier. if you’re looking for a good and hearty breakfast then you need to visit coffee barker.

Nous avons pris le petit déjeuner dans ce café. Le plat était copieux, à l’image d’un petit déjeuner anglais. Nous nous sommes régalés mais les bacons étaient super salés et même trop salés. Nous les avons donc laisser car difficile à manger ainsi. Le pain grillé était une tuerie. Trop bon. Le café se trouve dans les arcades et la déco et l’ambiance sont juste topissime. J’adore. C’est intimiste. Dommage qu’il faille commander au comptoir puis prendre son café depuis le comptoir soi même en plus des serviettes et des verres d’eau. Seulement vos plats vous sont ramenés à table.

We had breakfast in this cafe. The dish was hearty, like an English breakfast. We enjoyed ourselves but the bacon was super salty and even too salty. So we left them because they were difficult to eat like this. The toast was killer. Too good. The café is located in the arcades and the decor and atmosphere are just amazing. I adore. It's intimate. Too bad you have to order at the counter then get your coffee from the counter yourself in addition to napkins and glasses of water. Only your dishes are brought back to you at the table.

We had a fantastic full cooked breakfast at Coffee Barker. The produce was absolutely delicious but the doorstep toast stole the show! The icing on the cake? The individual portions of fairly locally made butter. It was delicious! All items were nice and hot too. I also loved the large pot of tea! The only issue for me was the seats are not too comfortable. The choice was either high stools, or low settees/chairs. As I have a lower right leg full of metal, this was a bit uncomfortable. The toilets are down some steep stairs too, but they can't help that! Great for a short visit, but I couldn't have settled in for another cuppa! It certainly would not put me off visiting again though as the food was really good.

I really enjoyed absorbing the cafés gorgeous decor - and the Chai Latte I ordered was equally superb.

We went to Coffee Barker twice during our two day break in Cardiff. Coffee Barker is located in the Castle Arcade. The Castle Arcade is part of the three Grade II listed Victorian and Edwardian arcades in Cardiff. All of the arcades have some amazing original architectural features, which make the arcades quite special. The interior of Coffee Barker was filled with low seating (armchairs and sofas) and (coffee) tables. This created a perfectly relaxed setting. First time we ordered the Tuna Melt Paninis. They were presented with a good side salad portion. The Paninis were also fairly substantial. Served on a super soft panini roll, the tuna mix was nicely blended with mayonnaise, red onion, tomato and pepper. For me there was a little too much red onion as I have a low tolerance of onion but after the removal of some, it was delicious and cheesy. For drinks we had a cappuccino and a hot chocolate, which were both good. On our second day we returned for brunch. We ordered Scrambled Egg with Chunky Toast. We chose to share a couple of sides of tomatoes and mushrooms too. The scrambled eggs were plentiful but could have been more moist than they were. I was glad of the wet that the tomato added. Overall the breakfast was pleasant.

Disappointed and cheated!! Called in for lunch with friends. Very quiet at the time of visiting on January 12th. Not very busy at all. Sat at a front window seat therefore used front bar to place order. Placed my loyalty card on counter. Ordered two cappuccinos one Panini and a jacket potato. The young lady served up the cappuccinos and said the food would follow shortly, took payment for the order but ignored the loyalty card. I asked if she would stamp my card holding it up. To my disappointment and surprise I was informed that I could not have the loyalty card stamped at the front bar, only the far end bar. At no point was this made clear to me even though the card had been in clear sight while ordering. Also why take food and coffee orders from this bar if you cannot use the loyalty facility offered by the Barker's chain!!

A pleasant enough coffee shop, though the price is higher than I think is justified. The drinks were nice, but I have had better elsewhere in Cardiff. The cakes were pleasant enough, but don't really stand out from other coffee shops. The ambience and vibe is lovely. Comfortable seating in a beautifully styled environment does make it feel like you are somewhere a bit special. It's a shame the staff don't reinforce that atmosphere with effective service. Though pleasant and polite enough, it has felt understaffed when I've visited, with long waits for service. Not particularly accessible for wheelchair users due to layout and furniture.

Really tasty food here and lovely atmosphere! I got a brownie which was really nice. The only reason I haven’t given it 5 stars is because I thought that the hot chocolate was quite overpriced, £5.50 is too much for what was a really nice, but pretty typical hot chocolate. If you are willing to pay for the lovely atmosphere then i definitely recommend but just don’t expect cheap drinks.

Lovely place for a drink and cake. The carrot cake was a bit dry, but it tasted good. The staff was kind and friendly.

We were a group of 4. Our chicken burgers (Cluck Norris Chicken Burger) with chips were the worst we have ever had. They were tough and overcooked in extremely old oil. The skin of the chicken hadn't been removed before being deep fried. I absolutely do not recommend this place for a meal. We have found places not far from this place that serve extremely good meals.
