Coffee Fresco in Swansea

Only stopped for coffee and cake. It was busy and the food that I saw looked good. I think some of the staff were new so weren't fully up for the challenge of the busy service. Coffee was OK and the cake was a little dry. Just average

Great location, superb breakfast and great service

Stunning little cafe plenty of choices of food and cakes and the place was spotlessly clean, definitely be returning in the future

Latte was bland, had to pay for extra espresso. Busy so service suffered as not enough staff. Expensive yet averge

Went here for breakfast while on holiday in Swansea. Good location to sit outside in nicer weather. Breakfast ok, though wasn't a fan of the rosemary added to the mushrooms. And the bit of greenery added to the plate seemed a bit odd for a full english breakfast? Inside seemed a bit messy and bitty in terms of decor? It seemed like it was trying to address too many markets and doesn't know if it's a cafe or an evening cocktail bar. Overall ok.

Last year, I was more than a little disappointed by the quality of the food, but not this year. The eggs benedict was absolutely gorgeous, the poached eggs were cooked to perfection, and the salmon and hollandaise sauce were very tasty. The coffee was spot on and was perfect, as I was able to have my oat cappuccino, which I wish I could make as nice. The kiwi fruit juice was divine. The staff were rushed off their feet, as this seems to be a very popular place, and did appear to be a little stressed, which did affect the service but would definitely eat here again. They even cater for our furry friends and have different sized dog bowls available at the entrance.

First time at Coffee Fresco. Wow on the tea cakes(very nice) and nice coffee. Will be back 👍👍

Wish you would bring back the gf,df browine it was lovely. Not many gf peeps will risk eating flapjacks. Coffee is lovely though

This is a lovely little cafe right by the marina so placed perfectly. The service is very good as they are attentive and polite. It used to be packed to the drawstrings in here however recently they have put the prices up so where as my sister and I would order a sandwich each now we order one between us with a portion of chips. Places to eat are getting really expensive which is hard for people at the moment, what with the fuel crisis and everything else bar your wages going up. And nobody wants to spend loads of money just on lunch. Shame really as it used to be packed so wouldn't it have been better to keep the prices the same and have more customers in.

Beautiful location, friendly staff, Good quality ingredients and range of options on meals and breakfast. Breakfast stops at half 11. Moderate price. Card or cash. Parking nearby and outdoor seating. Toilets inside.

Little gem located right on the marina. Would recommend and looking forward to visiting again

Very tasty food and very nice service

We ordered a ham and cheese toastie, ham sandwich, a BLT sandwich a portion of chips and a child's sausage and chips with 4 cold drinks. We sat outside the cafe was busy and we after about 15 minutes we were brought the food and an additional toastie but no chips! We advised the waitress that we didn't order the additional toastie but did have the chios which was to share with the 2 sandwiches. The waitress said she would get the chips. We had almost finished our food and no chips arrived! Went to the ask if the chips were on the way this was now over half an hour from ordering. We were told that we didn't order chips, I explained we had not taken the toastie which costs twice as much and had honestly return it. We were disappointed and never received what we had requested on the order. Poor customer service won't be returning there despite the lovely location.

Great location. Very busy. Staff were friendly. Lots of tables are located outside which is great but a lot of smoking going on. Would it be possible to designate obe side of outside area no smoking?

Great Staff. Food and drink fabulous

One of the best toasties I've ever had - generous on the filling 👌🏻 Will 100% be coming again. Scones were lovely too. Great view, good service, nice atmosphere.

Lovely latte,very friendly staff. Dog friendly.

Great place for a stop off coffee and cake very popular and all the food looks delicious, staff friendly and efficient

Not a bad little place. Had the toasted cheese sandwich, came with a small side salad and crisps.

Good food, service was quick. Just missed breakfast. Which was a pity as it looked fantastic. Had the cheese toasty came with a small side salad and crisps. Would eat here again.

Horrible and way overpriced. Cheap margarine on toast mushrooms Horrible and fried tomato. And coffee like mud.

Love this place good location Friendly staff

Great place. Very friendly staff and lovely, super helpful lady who runs the place. Thank you ♥️

Amazing coffee beautiful tirimisu xxxx

Visited today and made an order to Table ‘39’, after waiting a long time and moving table to ‘17’ because of the vast amount of seagull attacks, the food didn’t arrive. I enquired after 30 mins to be told to wait ‘5 more minutes’, in the meantime, someone else sat, ordered and got served at table ‘39’ so that explains what happened to my order, they clearly forgot it. It was a simple 2 person order with simple dishes so no reason for the delay. The order Finally arrived ‘outside’ to the waitress shouting ‘if anyone ordered some food’ (so why take table numbers) and after 35 minutes and it was a complete letdown. Asked the neighbouring table and said orders being lost is a common thing, which has happened to them numerous times.

Had a quick lunch here. It’s handy for the Waterfront museum and it has a nice view across the waterfront. There’s lots of seats outside so you can enjoy the view and tables (including a few sofas) inside. Service is order at the counter (just give them your table number). It was a short wait for our food. My cheese toastie was fine and the avocado and hummus salad was really nice.

Our food and wine was delicious, atmosphere and service great too and all that with a beautiful view outside the restaurant. Make sure you order ice cream for dessert😉 Definitely I’ll be back here

Delicious breakfast, just over £10 for all of this food. Nice and hot, service good and coffees also great!

Really really nice place and cheaper than similar ones in the area

Fantastic service by extremely friendly and helpful staff. Coffee was excellent and the food was so well presented and a really good price. I had a breakfast and my wife had cesar salad. Both delicious and plentyfull. Will definitely be back.

Vwry nice cafe with a relaxed atmosphere next to the marina

Everything at the best level. Service, burger, drink. I recommend!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

Really poor service, ice cream was okay.

The young women that took our order was lovely but the older lady that served, us and was possibly in charge, has no idea how to talk to customers

A really good place to eat and generally hang out, with comfortable sofas to relax on. Delicious toasties and I also had a lovely liqueur coffee and a freshly squeezed grapefruit juice

Lovely food and drink lovely service with happy smiling faces

Nice cafe over looking the boats. They do a large flat white, which is quite the anomaly when it comes to coffee shops.

EXCELLENT SERVICE. VERY VERY VERY BEAUTIFUL SEXY WOMEN XXX

Popped in for a coffee and some ice cream with my kids. The place is located at the back of the Waterfront Museum, with great views of the harbour. They serve lovely coffee, I had a cappuccino and my kids had chocolate ice cream, which was lovely. Closest parking would be St. David's and is free on a Sunday. Prices are not too bad, typical of any small coffee/food shop. They also do a variety of food options, which look lovely. Would highly recommend 👌

So the son was down visiting and had gone off to do his own thing, so some me time! A pot of tea and my book, in the breezy sunshine. Quick service with a smile, customers made to feel welcome and quick table service. Didn’t have the time to eat here so means I’ll be back again soon 😁

Amazing food and service, also I Love the atmosphere

Stopped in here for coffee with my mum and her little dog while out for a walk on Sunday morning. The coffees were fine, but the young girls working at the bar were very uninterested in the customers and I actually felt I was interrupting while trying to order

I used to visit this cafe a lot and it was my favourite cafe in Swansea. But it's not as good as it used to be, think there are new people running it. Wraps are very skimpy on the meat/tuna, not worth the price. Also my chips were cleared away by the waitress before we could finish them and they refused to return them! Not good service, won't be back

Lovely coffee and a huge toasted tea cake .

Great place for breakfast and a coffee - loved it

While walking around the Marina this is a great place to stop off for coffee. It's set in a fab location over looking the Marina. Coffee & food are great. It's always busy, the service is consistently good, and the atmosphere is great.

Lovely place , clean , lovely food and a warm welcome

Great eggs Benedict & coffee !!

Quick seating, limited menu with not much choice for gluten intolerance. Nice atmosphere.

Good choice of food and drinks with pleasant service. Great location to walk around the Marina and visit the Waterfront Museum and Swansea Museum.

Great coffee, relaxing atmosphere, delicious homemade ice cream, highly recommend

Fantastic coffe and fresh cakes

Lovely cafe right on Swansea marina. Food was great and fresh and came out quickly.

Excellent. Visited several times during our visit to swansea.

Great place for a good nibble and coffee

Always enjoy stopping off here for refreshments, Delightful staff especially the welcoming charm of Diane. Ideal dog friendly cafe.

What a gem of a find! We have visited three times over the course of our visits to Swansea..Their home made soups are just perfect; chips hot and freshly made; coffee is tasty and there is such a variety of delicious meals and drinks to choose from..overlooking the boats on the Marina you couldn't find a more perfect place to chill!! A must to visit when exploring Swansea City 😉🤗

An excellent coffee in the sunshine by Swansea marina. Could have been the south of France. Bit of a queue inside to order but worth while.

Appauling. The waiter was extremely rude and unfriendly. Made us feel very unwelcome. The fish and chips was a giant over cooked brick of batter. And the fish chewy. Pigeons constantly landing on tables. Would never return.

Enjoyed, love stop for a coffee and a bite, always popular

Love this place, great food, fantastic location and the staff are amazing

Nice cafe at marina near to maritime museum. Stopped there for a lunchtime snack. Served quickly and staff friendly. Sat outside where dogs are allowed - not sure about inside.

Had some great coffee and chips, service was friendly and welcoming.

Good value coffee from nice staff

Gorgeous food and fantastic friendly staff. I think it's the best place in Swansea

I ordered a cup of tea which was milky water and a cappuccino but instead received a espresso. Poor service.

Our table was cleaned and floor swept throughly before we sat down. Found service a little on the slow side, and not very attentive. Wraps were okay skimped on the tuna filling and raming full of salad. I found the chucky chips nice enough.

Great place for a chat over a light lunch.

Coffee excellent as usual, Eggs Benedic very disappointing. Noisey - too many mobile phones. Atmosphere has changed from top coffee shop to builders mess room.

Absolutely delicious food in good surroundings. Sat outside for a family meal. Fast, friendy service. 11 clean plates after everyone ate all their food. Really good Italian coffee. Would highly recommend for indoor or outdoor dining.

Relaxed to a nice warm cuppa on a recent visit to the marina.

Excellent food, service and value.

*****Best place to go for coffee and food in Swansea! Fantastic atmosphere and very friendly staff! *****

An ideal place for snacks, meals or just drinks. Especially good when the sun is out as the view of the marina is stunning.

Very clean, polite brilliant ice cream.

Can honestly say this was the worst cappuccino I've ever had. Taste so weak and I think they used skimmed milk which definitely didn't help.

Very friendly staff and a great cup of coffee!! Lots of different flavoured icecream to choose from. Well worth a visit in a beautiful location!

Brilliant coffee and delicious breakfast. Definitely recommend😁👌

Quality of food was great and best coffee in town.

I love this cafe. The staff are really helpful and friendly, and my husband will go there especially for the smoked sausage soup! It is delicious. This time Mum and I shared an egg mayo sandwich, it was yummy. I love the new outside area too, will definitely enjoy sitting there in the sunshine some time soon! And great coffee.

Lovely sunny day,managed to get a table,as always staff were very friendly and polite. Fish and chips,and big burger of the specials menu.Went down well although deep fried chips a little greasy for my liking. Expect to pay £24 with two cold drinks.

Good menu and food good at a decent price

Always visit when walking SA1. I used to have work lunches here on Friday, chicken and avocado sandwich, yum. My go to place on the Marina.

Lovely location. Great staff. Good coffee and fab ice-creams.

Lovely and well managed place. Fantastic ice creams and tasty coffee. 5 star service. Lovely place to visit

Good service good food excellent coffee

Decent coffee with outdoor seating and good views of the marina. Only negative is allowing people to smoke a couple of meters from us when we're eating, not sure why smokers can't go an stand somewhere else. Probably won't be retuning whilst smokers are allowed to ruin the experience for everyone else, such a shame

Hello all at Fresco Looking forward to my mocha served with a smile in beautiful surroundings One of my favourite places too be Thank you all

Takeaway only at the moment. Coffee was good. The member of staff (owner maybe?) who served me was very friendly and polite. Would like to return when full indoor or seated outdoor service is available

Went there with my dad, sat outside with a delicious cup of coffee. The staff were lovely as they were hospitable I will be returning

Lovely food, friendly staff and beautiful surroundings... great waterside terrace to sit on on a sunny day and the home made soups are phenomenal!

it was lovely food and the chicken wrap was very nice

Good place to view the marina while enjoying a good cup of coffee.

Great place for sitting outside when its not overly busy, food is great and well worth a try, great choicenof home made ice cream, coffee could be better quality and better made rather than the same old cheap lavazza, there are much better independednt coffee rosters that could be sorced for coffee, queing can be frustrating with the ratio of tables outside to shop floor space when trying to order, friendly staff, its dog friendly also, all in all if you cant go anywhere else this place is a good back up.

Don’t bring kids for breakfast. Great location, food and prompt service, and although they have a kids daytime menu, they don’t have anything for kids for breakfast. I asked if chef would do some scrambled eggs on toast for my 2 yr old son, and chef said no and would only do things that were on the menu (no scrambled eggs on the menu). I asked if they could do a half portion of poached eggs on toast but even that was a no, so had to settle for adult sized breakfast for a toddler. Disappointingly unaccommodating despite being an otherwise nice venue.

All the staff really friendly, everything we ordered was delicious and fresh. Menu has a great selection and we finished off with lovely fresh ice cream although we were spoilt for choice with the flavours. Great location would highly recommend a visit.

Excellent food staff very friendly and helpful stunning views of the marina if you like boats you can dream all you like. Its stunning there.

Had a delicious orange juice and burger and chips on a sunny day was lovely apart from a dopey wasp In the doorway

Great dog friendly cafe. Really nice coffee and good food at reasonable prices. We visit here quite often.

Exalalant service nice meal and welcome dogs
