Ferndale Scoops and Smile in Rhondda Cynon Taf

Best Breakfast for 4.99 friendly staff and a lovely place to eat.

A lovely place to dine, Food always delicious, lovely friendly staff and very reasonably priced, cannot fault this place one bit, thats why we continue to return, keep up the good work guys 👍

Excellent biker-friendly cafe, great value and lovely people.

Lovely staff and a quality breakfast.

My wife and I had a wonderful breakfast . The food was perfect and service professional and very friendly. Spotlessly clean . Coffees lovely. Visit , you will not be disappointed !

I left feeling like I'd paid a parking ticket! Nothing was worth a cent I spent. From the apathetic server at the front, to the science experiment to find out how much flour could be put into a sausage before it became a meat flavoured cake, nothing left a good impression. Almost everything on the plate was the cheapest option a place could opt for from their suppliers. I guess I should be thankful though, the next place to attempt disappointing me to this level will find it almost impossible.

Fantastic place with fantastic service

Called in whilst of a long cycle ride for coffee & sandwiches. Probably been to over 50 cafes in south wales on cycling days out. Have to say this was one of the very best. Spacious & clean inside. Really wee laid out. Excellent food ( superb bacon sandwich with fries). Coffee was great too. really great professional & very friendly service.

Lovely place for food, great service. We had breakfast and it was delicious.

A point, - This is NOT fast food, and from my 2 visits I find it is most wholesome. The 1/4 lb cheeseburger alone was like a full dinner. Or am I getting older? My partners taylor- made breakfast did not look a lot, like in most cafes, but was also excellent quality and more than filling the gap. This tells me that time and care make the best meals, and I do not mind waiting that bit extra for food made to order and not last night. The staff seem more than helpful and very welcoming, something important to us older folks perhaps. Use again? Just wait till next week. Recommended.

We visited today for a breakfast. I had cheese and beans on toast and the cheese didn’t even melt the beans were that luke warm!! My partner had the Barrie breakfast and in his own word “Barrie would be disappointed “ everything was badly cooked and food was so pale plate swimming in water or grease! He did say the friedbread was nice though. And to top it off he had to listen to all the staff on shift talk so badly about another staff member all they did was bitch and talk about them. Very poor and will now be returning!

Very nice breakfast with fast service. Food always hot coming out and freshly cooked. Hidden little gem in the Valleys.

Absolutely amazing food as always amazing service! Can’t fault anything thank you for always being amazing ❤️

Lovely skinny breakfast today, excellent service xx

Lovely family run restaurant, lovely people, lovely food, shame about the parking

Always great food an service 1st time ordering and definitely recommended 👌

Always amazing food.. Would recommend everytime 😊✌️

Food was amazing, would order again.

Delicious breakfast, not an ounce of oil on the plate, good portion and tasty!

The food was a little late (15 mins) but it was worth the wait. The food was delicious, and the portions were really generous. The fatty that I am had eyes too big for my belly, and I had to have two sittings for my breakfast. I will definately order from there again.

2nd. Visit...last one was pre covid, and pleased to see they are still open. They make their own ice cream which makes it a pleasure to visit. The car park is Porth side of the building. Drive in as if you were going into the car wash (look for car wash and red sign). Definitely worth a visit as it does food as well as ice cream.

Love a breakfast here. Food is always really good, they clearly care, great place to eat for all

I’ve ordered a few times now and every time it’s great quality and great tasting food!! Fast delivery and lovely service!! 100% recommend

Food was great but the tray had metled there was hardly any bottom to it and all the food fell through it I had to put it on a plate. Good job I had put a plate down beforehand or it would have been over the floor. I took a pic as proof. I'm sure it was a one off accident but so lucky it didn't end up on the floor or all over my work surface.

Everything was cooked perfectly, not a single fault and will be more than happy to order from here again

Fast delivery and great food!!

Very friendly helpful staff, nice selection of ice cream, deserts and meals. Nice clean facilities it was a very nice experience.

Perfect family restaurant, family ran and all staff so friendly. Spotlessly clean, fab reasonably priced food, then there’s the homemade, on the premises ice-cream ❤️

Fantastic food... would recommend it!

Amazing food as always , thank you all ❤️

I've had a breakfast here 3 times so far. The food is really nicely cooked, well presented and most importantly it's very tasty. The service is efficient and friendly. Very enjoyable. I will be a regular customer.

Great food as always! And follows the comments for a fussy eater to a T thanks girls and andi of course!!

Breakfast was cheap ingredients. Undercooked bacon. Mushrooms swimming in grease.

Lovely nespresso coffee and door step toast and butter delicious

Excellent service again with the food lovely and hot.

Excellent food and excellent service 👌

Amazing food as usual, so glad you guys now offer the option of delivery. Will definitely be ordering again.

Ordered when I seen scoops & smiles on just eat, took a walk up to the cafe, and had the loveliest welcoming as they recognised me from all the deliveries also the only place so far that reads the delivery notes on customised breakfast e.g change from fried egg to scrambled definitely worth the visit or even an order!

Really friendly staff! And some fantastic Waffles! Had to take some home!

Tasty food, good portion size. Will return again.

Fab food, fast delivery, will order again.

I have ordered from here so many times and I can honestly say they have never disappointed! Food has always been hot and very tasty 😋 and I have to say the nutella milkshakes are 🔥

Quick service, lovely and warm. Quality as always!

I had chicken strips with sweet chilli dip and chips, deliciously home made, also a chocolate milkshake to die for. Breakfast also delicious. Friendly, clean and affordable a very pleasant change, wish they’d open up in Aberdare 👍👍

Scoops and smiles never fail to disappoint, in restaurant or delivery. Food was fresh and piping hot. I really appreciated that they put the baked beans in a separate pot too. Just to add, their crepes and milkshakes are amazing too, as is Sunday lunch.

Food arrived piping hot, delivered early, food was delicious and curry was full of flavour! delivery driver was really nice, will definitely be ordering again

1st time to order and it won't be my last. Food was so fresh and delivered on time.

I have visited this place for a lunch with my MotorBike Friends..... the food was really delicious and low priced....we have enjoyed our lunch for sure....Owner and staff are extreme friendly.,, This is a place were you feel very comfortable...For sure we will visit this place again during our next motortrip.

Lovely family and dog friendly place, great service, staff and food. Would recommend

Called in for an ice cream today.. Turkish delight flavour, it was delicious!

Lovely place for a coffee, ice-cream or snack,most welcoming

Took the grandkids, burgers are amazing, I had a breakfast which was very yummy, Nutella milkshakes superb and iced coffees delicious. Definitely will visit soon to try the £5 cocktail range 😀 😋 🍔🧋🍸

Fabulous food amazing size potions very friendly amazing staff amazing service very quick very cheap

travel quite a way to come here regularly because it's worth it and I love it - always enjoy - lovely food - spotlessly clean restaurant and loos - all clean and hygienic - folk living nearer are very fortunate;);) a great eaterie ;);) I can't praise it highly enough Consistently after many visits - thank you to all From Jacqueline

lovely place, very clean. good quality products used, cooked with care and nicely presented. very helpful staff, great home made ice cream and cakes as well as a selection of meals.

Diner-type feel to the place. Will definitely be back - thoughtful staff member made a hot chocolate for my son (age 3) at a cooler temperature without me even having to ask. Had a good burger, with free kids burger (great offer!). I imagine in the nicer weather it would be good to sit out back in their small yard.

The food is gorgeous. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is spotlessly clean. We met and chatted with Andy the owner and what a truly nice person he is. Will definitely eat here again.

Really gone off this place ....

In the area and stopped for ice cream but it looked so good we had breakfast too. Great value, fresh ingredients, pretty much perfect breakfast, piping hot and well presented.

A great cafe with friendly staff,parking

Had a lovely breakfast, would definitely go there again

Yet another visit to this gem of a café. Great value freshly cooked food. Service with a smile indeed - and not just a pinned on for the customers grimace either. We love the place. The only slight issue is that it is very echoy (large flat areas of hard walls/windows/floor - it used to be a car sales room) - so the noise level is high.

Lovely staff ,can't do enough for you .especially if you are elderly

Was a wonderful place staff are very welcoming and friendly food is great just an all round lovely place

Amazing food as always, lovely staff

Went for lunch with my partner and everything was amazing. The service, the decor, the cleanliness, the food, the speed EVERYTHING!!! There isn't a single thing I'd change. Highly recomend popping in

The customer service and the food was absolutely fantastic, I cleared my plate! Amazing guys I will definitely be coming back here again for food, and also bring the family Such a great atmosphere to be in for homley and welcoming

Always welcomed with a smiley face, food is always out of this world. Our favourite place for food, service always top notch

Always great tasting food and friendly staff ready to help definitely recommend for all round experience and has turned into my regular place

It’s really ironic that this place is called Scoops and Smiles when I didn’t see one member of staff smile at a customer once during my stay. A lady who I presume is the owner was the only person to thank people as they were leaving. When I went to the counter to order I was blanked by a young girl, who was obviously making coffee for someone else, she could have said that someone would be happy to serve me or say she wouldn’t be long. Anyway I just wanted poached eggs on toast and when ordered with a cup of tea, both came really quickly and I enjoyed. But I am not sure why this came with tomatoes and cucumber!? There is a vast menu and I might be tempted to come back again as overall I did enjoy. The customer service let it down to be honest.

Excellent food and staff is so lovely. So much choice you’re spoilt for options both sweet and savoury. Absolutely stunning and super clean, with plenty of seating outside and inside! Deffos recommend you visiting.

Lovely hash browns great value!

Good prices and service, pleasant staff, and local

Had some amazing Ice Cream. Their food menu looks great too, will definitely be going back again!

Absolute gem of a place, delicious home made food excellent portions and delicious too. And desserts to die for absolutely loved it will be back again

Pleasant Airy atmosphere, welcoming staff. Easy parking. The food best described as traditional but its OK. We'll go again.

Never disappointed with this place, service very good and food great, and very clean. 🙂👍

Lovely food and very nice staff

In the few times iv been to this cafe never once have i had a bad experience,the food is always delicious and the staff are friendly and polite.i would highly recommend

Absolutely amazing food and even better staff! We walked in 30 minutes before close and was still made to feel welcome. Chefs were amazing I would highly recommend the Mediterranean burger!!! Will definitely be making this place a more regular thing.

This place is great. Staff are really friendly. Food is impeccable. I had the mixed grill I think the chef is a descendant of god cos the food was like heaven. The missus had one of the burgers she destroyed it didn’t even touch the sides. Reasonable priced for good quality food. If your in the Rhondda this place is where to go for grub. The place is also spotless.

Had to wait a bit for our order as it was really busy but I enjoyed it regardless. Definitely going again.

Toilets nice and clean, going to start his own ice cream soon, can't wait for that

I had the cajan chicken burger. And it was beautiful! I love spicy foods and this was spicy! Always great service with the girls. Top restarant highly recommend 👌

My 1st visit 2 this resturant was 10*s. The meal & dessert were delicious & staff were very friendly

Contemporary environment, good food in huge portions value for money and most important the service is always excellent and the staff friendly Can’t fault anything! And this is coming from a Greek lady used to 5* service

Thoroughly enjoyed the food, we picked up and it was ready within 20 minutes which is great. Nice burger and scrumptious dessert. The tuna panini was also highly rated. Would definitely recommend to a friend, 10/10.

Good food and prices pleasant staff.

Very nice enjoyable food and atmosphere

Absolutely beautiful food, lovely waitresses, very polite, and helpful, the place is spotless you could eat of the floor ,i was working up the valleys for 2 days i wish its was for 7 day's, please open a place in Cardiff .

Good food and enough of it to satisfy. Only reason for four stars was because although it wasn't busy the waitress made us wait nearly 15 minutes before approaching us to take our food and drinks order. The food came quickly after that.. She was also absent when we were finished waiting and a colleague of hers took our plates and gave us the bill... But that just meant I gave a smaller tip than I normally do so all fair. Overall, good.

Very nice go in again when we're passing

Good food, nice atmosphere, kind service!

Lovely people , very friendly,good food

Beautiful welcome and lots great meals, nothing too much trouble and friendly team xx

Good food easy to get their and nice place to eat

Had strawberry ice cream with fresh strawberries it was delicious can't wait to go back and have a meal there and more ice cream also service was excellent.
