Gwili Cafe in Carmarthenshire

Full cafe in the centre of Llandeilo ,full of regulars, always a good sign. Really busy with good food served quickly and with a smile, jacket potatoes looked great with lots of different fillings, breakfasts also looked fabulous. Just had a quick drop in for a cuppa, old style cafe with good old fashion prices x

A wonderful place to be,and probably the best breakfast, anywhere!!!!

Always call in when we go to the caravan always a warm welcome with good freshly cooked food. Sadly this time someone was missing our host of many years Bryan had passed in the time since we were last there.

The lasagne was brilliant and the staff were nice and helpful

Great service great food staff brilliant

Lovely cafe on main street of Llandeilo, we stayed in the next village along and our accomodation didn't do breakfast so found this place on google. So glad we stopped here as the 2 English Breakfasts we had were delicious. Coffee was also very nice. Owner and staff very friendly and we had a lovely chat, leaving with recommendations of some great places to visit as we hadn't visited this part of Wales before. Overall excellent value for money and we would highly recommend.

Surprisingly lovely. Went twice on our visit to llandilo.

Always good and deliver to Llanwrda. Went to the Cottage today to try and have to say not like it was in Brian's day but early days.

A brilliant breakfast and fantastic service! Diolch!

Nice cafe and the staff are always friendly, the soup of the day and homemade cakes are delicious!

As always called in on our recent visit to our static caravan in Llanwrda. We had our young Labrador with us as usual and were all made very welcome Brian as always found time for a chat when he returned from his deliveries,indeed next day we followed him to Llanwrda. I have always been a sucker for the chicken curry and this time was surprised to notice that the recipe had been changed as it looked very different the waitress confirmed there were two chefs and that the recipe had been changed. My wife had a ham and cheese toastie which she said was very nice. Two pots of tea gave a little over 2 cups each. Just a very brief word on the curry it was very tasty and had large chunks of chicken but sadly I preferred the old recipe as always proper chips, not frozen, piping hot and on this occasion we ate alone, very rare. Still miss the Cottage under Brian's ownership but Gwlli has been a good alternative for us on our, fairly, regular visits to the area

What a fantastic find. Have seen this cafe for years but never visited. Thank goodness we finally did. The staff and other locals could not have been friendlier. Especially as we had a loud, excitable 19 month old to feed. They cook specials everyday. We had pie of the day with homemade chips and it was great. We visited again 3 days later…. And I had the Gammon. Great again! It’s not going to break any culinary boundaries but home cooked classic dishes really hit the spot. And so, so friendly.

Unfortunately we had a very poor experience of this cafe. We were in Llandeilo for the Antiques Fair and pretty well everywhere was packed. We eventually found a table here and were told that there would be a 'bit of a delay' with the food - which we said we didn't mind. However, one hour later - and with several people who had arrived after us being served - our patience ran out. They'd clearly overstretched themselves so we can't comment on the food as we didn't have any (all we ordered were toasties !). To be fair to the owner, when I went to pay for the two cups of tea we'd had, he didn't charge us.

Excellent value, good service and dog friendly. The food is home made and the portions are large. Good, tasty stuff. The cafe is a bit of an institution in Llandeilo - especially given all of the work the team has done to support the community.

I had a two course Christmas lunch that cost GBP 18. I started with 2 slices of roast lamb with mint sauce, stuffing placed in a Yorkshire pudding, one roast potato, mash potato, Brussels sprouts, carrots, long beans and green peas. The roast lamb was a little tough, but tasted fine with the mint sauce. The single roast potato was excellent and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. For dessert I had the Christmas pudding with brandy butter which was faultless. Service was excellent and staff were friendly and helpful.

It’s an unassuming cafe on the main street of Landeilo. There was a pub menu and a special Christmas menu. 2 of us had the pub menu- fish and chips and burger- tasty. 2 of us had the Christmas menu- roast Welsh lamb with Christmas pudding and brandy custard - tasty. Worth a visit.

We popped in here for brekkie whilst staying in the area and it was the best brekkie we've had in a long while. The food was amazing and all the staff were really friendly and welcoming. We got chatting to the owner and it's clear they there is a real ethos of community spirit which is amazing to find. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area again. Thank you to all 😊

We stayed for a week in Llandeilo and really fancied fish and chips takeaway. We were recommended the cafe as they do takeaway too and are open until 6pm. Everything was freshly cooked with beautiful cod, home made chips and lovely mushy peas. Fantastic.

We met the owner yesterday in The Cottage who said to call in as this was where he'd gone so today we did. Leila has vegetable pasta an says it was. Very tasty. I had jacket potato with curry and it was very nice indeed. We had lemon and lime to drink and a slice each of their cakes for later, looking forward to that with a cup of tea. Leila said she wonders how many eggs they use in the mix to make them that tall. Mein host made us most welcome as always and certainly worth a visit. Clearly very popular during lunch period waitresses charming. Very rarely go into the heart of Llandeilo but certainly worth a visit.

Stopped here for a quick lunch. Basic cafe but lots of choice on offer. We settled for jacket potato with side salad and my husband was pleased there was "no fancy leaves nonsense", but proper lettuce and simple ingredients. Other customers were enjoying hearty meals. Although staff were kept busy there were no delays, and we felt it was a friendly atmosphere.

Visited last Saturday lunchtime for a quick coffee and a bacon roll. A real warm welcome and efficient service, lovely freshly cooked sausage & bacon rolls served very promptly. As we finished a man (the owner) came round to chat & asked us where we were from and suggested places to visit. I asked him where he recommended for an evening meal and he suggested a few pubs etc and then told me that they did takeaways from Gwilli Cafe. Seven hours later I returned to pick up a Scampi,chips & peas served with tartare sauce and a Chicken curry half rice half chips with a naan bread and mango chutney. Both meals piping hot and freshly cooked & at £8.00 each we thought it was a bargain. I cannot recommend this little cafe enough no fancy decor just good old fashioned home made food served with a smile and a genuine interest in people.

Always a good Breakfast here with a warm welcome.

Lovely home cooked food and a very welcoming little cafe. We were all very hungry and left very satisfied! What shone through most was the kind hearts and community mindedness of the hosts. An inspiring little place.

Called here yesterday on the way home from Llandovery. Had the 3 course meal for 12 95. It was absolutely beautiful and the staff were very friendly. Will definately call back here again.

Very nice dog friendly cafe, very reasonably price and good food.

Gwili cafe is delightful. I was one of a group of 20 who enjoyed a very pleasant time at Gwili. I would recommend the cafe for any occasion. With thanks and best wishes

Good home cooked food, turkey dinner delicious, staff very friendly and helpful, recommended

Fantastic restaurant in the heart of Llandeilo. You can clearly tell this place has been feeding the community for years. Nothing too much trouble, everything cooked to perfection and well priced! See you again soon

Ham egg and chips wow. Steak pie full of tough steak. Avoid , stick to other items on the menu. It's a lovely cafe. Gravy and chips wow.

Brilliant place the staff were first class and the food was excellent, would recommend this place to everyone

Lovely little cafe . Warm welcome x

Dated decor and uncomfortable seating. Quite a long wait for our breakfast. The coffee was weak and watery, the breakfasts were badly presented and extremely greasy. Returned both breakfasts because the fried eggs were hard a 2nd attempt wasn't much better. If you put baked...

Came here slightly later on Sunday for lunch, about 1.30pm. Had the small roast beef. Hubby had the large but the only difference seemed to be two scoops of mash rather than one. However it was very nice and the chocolate fudge pudding was lovely....
