Hoogah in Swansea

An awesome group of hoogans! Always cheery and happy hoomans that make happy Hoogan hoomans!

Nice coffee, but cups are way too small.

Great quality food and drink with super friendly staff. Been a couple of times and never disappointed. See you again soon

Gorgeous place! Such a find. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. The food is great, small menu which means they focus on what they're good at. We had the famous Three Cliff Pretzel and the Cubano Pretzel, both delicious, good quality ingredients, especially the meat. The cocktails are also very interesting and tasty, and love the fact they have 4 taps that they rotate for different varieties of pints. Can not recommend this place more.

Amazing food for a very reasonable price. My wife and I visited here, originally planning to eat elsewhere, but we drove past here and remembered how much we entitled previous visits. We had an amazing lentil and tomato soup, which was very thick, and a cheese today with it. The food was absolutely delicious. And awesome coffee and some delicious cakes followed. There seem to be less places around like this these days, those that aren't part of a chain, so it's a real gem to find somewhere this good. I completely recommend Hoogah's. See for yourself, I can guarantee you won't regret a visit.

Lovely place, lovely people and the food!!! Nom nom nom nom nom!!

Lovely cosy atmosphere and food was something special 😋 👌

I'm frustrated I hadn't been here sooner, a very nice little cafe and bar. The little beer garden out back is lovely and I thoroughly enjoyed my coffee. Will be coming back for pizza!

A pleasant cafe with friendly staff. The Cubano pretzel was delicious. Unfortunately, this cafe is 'dog friendly' which in this instance meant a dog running around the place without a lead and barking loudly and often in a confined space. It was not a good experience - I finished my drink and left.

Had an absolutely delicious breakfast hash with sweet potato, potato, spinach and fried eggs topped with chilli sauce at Hoogah this morning. The pot of tea I had with it was a generous 4 cup one with proper loose leaf tea. I've also been here for pizza in the evening too, and those pizzas are some of the best I've tasted, with high quality dough.

Daughter recommended this place. Wife said ot had the best ham and cheese roasted sandwich she has ever had! The turmeric coffee was excellent.

A lovely friendly place staff lovely

Great atmosphere and good food. Big thanks to resident beer sommelier Rachel. She is a star x Went again and had another fab brunch. Still 5 stars from me. Had breakfast in a group of five. Generally very good for all of us.

Lovely staff, amazing food, the Cubamo Pretzel I had was absolutely divine.

Super lovely atmosphere, nice staff and stunning food and drinks!

We have visited Hougar for many years. Recently it has been a bit disappointing. Still lovely but no waiter service and not enough staff. This means that service and food are slow. Staff are friendly and do their best but it is not the same experience. Salad which was amazing - tonight was lettuce leaves and olives . I am worried that skimping on staff, reducing menu is going to have an adverse effect on one of the most popular places in SA2. Take note!

Delicious brunch and coffee, friendly and fast service, highly recommend!

All good. Excellent brunches. Good coctails. Nice staff

Lovely food great coffee and atmosphere with great service. Dog freindly. Even gave my dog some scrambled egg.

Definitely recommend the mixed platter as a starter, it had something for everyone at our table. The cocktails were lovely too! absolutely love, Hoogah’s. Food is delicious, ambience is chilled out. Children and pets are warmly welcomed

Staff were lovely, and playing some great music throughout. Lovely place for a coffee and cake.

Great food and lots of vegan options

Waited for table after being told to wait and they gave table to someone that came in after me, ignoring me. Then told no table as they gave the last away. Staff really need to be more aware. Won't be giving them my business again. Guy making the drinks also has zero people skills.

Good coffee. Scrambled eggs a little dry on rye that was cut a little too thick (think jaw ache). Really good service though and that, together with coffee is what will make me go back. They were really busy, so I'm putting the food down to that.

Often slow when it gets busy, but the food is delicious and very vegetarian friendly

After a very disappointing experience at Swansea Pride (we were told there would several street food vendors only to find a disappointing selection of fried chicken, noodle & pizza), we opted to have food locally and decided on Hoogqh. I am so glad we did. The staff were friendly and the service was excellent. I tried their Three Cliff Reuben Pretzel and I was not disappointed. We enjoyed the food so much, my husband and I returned a week later.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Hoogah the other day. Very nice coffee and enjoyed the croissant as well. The only downsides to the visit were the wet seats and slow service. However, the staff themselves were lovely and I would 100% visit again!

Great atmosphere... awesome customer service, the staff are absolutely lush! Great coffee and mocktails! 👌🏻

Quirky little bar with a real tasty chai tea

Such a lush place and the staff are so friendly! Highly recommend!

Had looked forward to going here but hugely disappointed. My salad was nought special. Probably had too much dressing on and was quite bitter. The venue was shabby chic but more shabby than chic. Dead plants, weeds, cracked tableware. In general, I'm unhappy that the pandemic introduced a new way of having to go to the bar to order because, when meeting friends, I want to be chatting to them, not standing in a queue waiting to be served. Won't be going back

I had high hopes but was very disappointed. The staff were friendly but service was slow and tables weren't cleared for around 20 minutes after being vacated, leaving the café looking very untidy. We weren't told whether it was table service or we had to order at the bar, so we waited ages then ordered and paid at the bar, which took a while. Soft drinks are over priced with a small cranberry juice (half of it ice) costing £3.40. My friend's salad was very disappointing and tasted bitter. The shakshuka was really bland, it didn't taste seasoned and the chilli seemed to be missing. Also the eggs seemed to have dissolved into the tomatoes, so it was like a runny tomato and egg soup. The bread was nice! I'm afraid neither I nor my friend would go back.

WOW! Incredible brunch place. This is coming from a Sydney girl where the brunch scene is fiercely competitive- this is one of the best i’ve come by! Lovely friendly staff and food was divine. Very creative menu. Will be coming back often!

Absolutely beautiful gaff, pure vibes Food was incredible and staff were amazing. Shout out to Mike - his singing whilst cleaning tables added to the ambiance. Splendid.

wonderful spot to chill for a couple hours with the dog - friendly staff, good food, good beer! what more could you want :)

Good service, fab food and great atmosphere. Highly recommend for food and drinks.

This was an unexpected but lovely find for some brunch. It seems to be a place you make a booking for rather than turning up in order to be seated. It felt cramped inside if I being honest but once you get over that then it’s a really good atmosphere. I loved the music playing so much I had my Shazam on auto. The food was the best bit and loved that some of it was organic. If you’re scared to try the rosemary latte, don’t be, it was fantastic.

An excellent place to relax and catch up with friends.

Has two specialty pretzels. Not bad, but not sure why so many raving reviews. The pulled meat was quite dry. Always busy, so we have waited 30 minutes for the food.

It’s been a few weeks since my visit, but this place is great. Amazing style and atmosphere, and the scandi board was totally amazing. Love this place.

Great place, our tumeric latte was amazing. I'd suggest booking as it was very busy.

You have to try the cinnamon rolls with mascarpone and berries! So good! Super warm staff and great food. If we travel to Wales again we would love to come back ☺️ -1 star for the ambience because it could have been a little warmer

Great food (especially the pizza) and great service. This is an absolute gem in Swansea and I highly recommend it.

Appalling service from this guy who was in other night. Not very helpful and dismissive. Didn’t feel like staying in. Been there before for Breakfast and it was amazing service. Need to improve communication skills

Great food, well presented. We went on a Sunday late morning, and it was super busy. The waitress found us a table even though they were fully booked and service was a little disjointed, BUT, not going to complain, they were very busy and the food and the latte were top notch; so a little slow service won't detract from the experience. We both had the breakfast, With a warm cinnamon bun and a latte! Will definitely go back when we're back in the area (and will book ahead!!!)

I love this place, the food is really tasty and very reasonably priced, they cater for all types of diets as well, vegan, vegetarian, they offer alternative milk options. The staff are so accommodating and will do their best to assist you. Dog friendly and they also sell some jewellery pieces.

Absolutely incredible space great food and drink, the staff are fantastic. I really can't recommend this place enough. 20 out of 10

Very disappointing. Reserved a table for Brunch (Sunday). Despite this, provided a small table edged at back of restaurant. Food that arrived was unpleasant - Shasuka was watery and lacked flavour, whilst the bacon for my partners dish was burnt and cold. Service-wise, again poor, it took three requests to receive some ketchup to mask the taste of the food. It also took 30 minutes for it to be served. Really a very shabby experience, certainly did not meet the 5* star expectation based on other reviews - Be warned!

Had a pretzel each and they are really scrummy. Felt they could be slightly more prepared about allergens but they checked everything and the service was fab. I really like the limited menu it works as it lets them provide quality in a nice relaxed but really beautiful place

Lovely Restaurant/Café with probably the most incredible pizzas I've had in the UK. Staff were delightful. Me and my boyfriend have issues finding supportive places on Valentine's Day but Hoogah is a definite return for us :)

Great food and very nice atmosphere!

Lovely people (both sides of the counter), food and drinks. Would definitely recommend. We called in part way through a five hour journey from the south of England to south-west Wales, having read about Hoogah in a book called The Extra Mile, about places not far from motorways that offer better food than the services and are worth the diversion. I'd recommend that, too - we've found excellent eateries all over the place, and Hoogah is another one we'll revisit if we're ever passing by 😀

Nice coffee and atmosphere sham the coffee was served in a thimble

Atmosphere very chilled, even though it was very busy for the size of the venue. Staff kept a cheerful demeanour throughout the rush.

Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Food was excellent, very good if you're vegan!

Lovely place, lovely staff and tasty food.

I love Hoogah! The staff are so friendly, accommodating and helpful. Food and drinks are amazing too! A favourite of mine :-)

I was very excited to try this place last year. I’ve visited multiple times and unfortunately each time I notice the same issues. The food is quite average for its price and runs bland. The cinnamon buns are quite dry despite the toppings on top. The pizzas are hit or miss; sometimes the same pizza would taste good, other times it tastes different. It’s just not consistent. The service is slow, even if it’s just for coffee. The staff look worked up and appear unbothered or frustrated when asked for simple things like tap water for the table or extra napkins. The place is otherwise cozy.

Really tasty food, a good atmosphere and friendly efficient staff. Nice vegetarian options, & the decor is very attractive.

Price is ridiculous in regards to what you get.

Consistently great food plus loads of options for different dietary requirements. Friendly staff and good coffee.

You don't have to be vegan to eat here, but it helps. The Brunch Pretzel, was made up of layers of sweet, savoury, runny, chewy snd crunchy. flavours and textures including smoked bacon. If going to the toilet, use number 1 with its inbuilt wooden xylophone.

Very accommodating, we hadn't booked and even though they were busy, they gave us a table. Service was quick and food was well made.

First time here and everything was excellent

Had multiple delicious breakfasts here during my long weekend in Swansea. Food and coffee are both excellent, and the staff took great care with my food allergies. The decor and atmosphere are also lovely.

Visited a few times and always enjoyed the food. Nice selection of craft beers 🍻

Really nice food, fresh ingredients, good coffee, friendly staff! Long wait for taking order but the food was really lovely! I would definitely recommend because of it’s unique atmosphere.

The place is busy esp at the weekend so the booking is a must. Nice and relaxing and uplifting vibe, with super friendly staff. The concept of this place is really truly what makes it, local food, neighbourhood place. Good coffee. Really good breakfast hash with crispy chorizos, uniquely leafy spinach and beets, great flavour combo. The hoogah breakfast was HUGE with lots of different Nordic flavour elements and it will stuff you for good for the rest of the day! The best is yet to come - the cinnamon buns, and Nutella - it is the flavour as you’d imagine it.. decadent and rich and perfect treat. Perfect brunch spot but perfect for every occasion.

I go here often and it's always great! Beer selection changes often and the food is locally sourced. Staff are always super friendly.

Such a cute place, with great music and a lovely vibe. We sat by the window and had some tea and cake. The staff was really friendly.

Great place. Excellent staff. Only order the rye bread if you're expecting Danish rye!

Cant get enough of this place, has a nice vibe with friendly staff, and had a funk night which was class!

Ordered the "Charity Pizza" where a percentage of the pizza price is donated to a selected charity (on this occasion, it was RSPCA Llys Nini Animal Centre). Interesting pizza topping which consisted of mozzarella, pickled rhubarb, asparagus & crushed pistachio - tasty and unusual. Good strong flat white coffee also served here and by friendly staff.

Found this restaurant by chance. Awesome atmosphere, amazing food. Clever combinations of Nordic foods. Quirky drinks abound. Great time and absolute value for money.

Delicious, healthy food with the loveliest staff and so accommodating with our 7 month old! Will definitely be back!

Top quality beers! Went here with some old friends, they may not be all that cool but they are friends nonetheless. We had some pretzel based food and do not let my terrible photography skills fool you, it was all top tier and I extremely enjoyed. Staff here are super fun and friendly, can’t wait for my next visit that’s for sure

Amazing food, amazing staff, chilled atmosphere, had a great time

Very nice food, good cocktails, great atmosphere. I had the Cubano Pretzel

My companion advised me early on, as I was getting a little aerated about the (lack of/inconsistent) service, ‘don’t let their problems become ours, we can have a nice time anyway’ she was of course correct. I calmed down, and eventually, briefly, fell asleep, for what I was later told was an hour wait for food. That was unexpected, as the front section of the restaurant was empty when we entered. I say entered, we were told not not to come in until bidden. Thanks bartender. So I’m slightly mixed about this place, the chef is being slightly let down by the front of house. Which is a shame, because… The food (now we are getting to it) was tasty, local, fresh, different, and very welcome. I was with a group of discerning vegans who all expressed their delight with the dishes that we were served. I’d go again, yes, no, not sure. Sorry to be ambivalent. I dutifully tipped the waitress, the third one, I lost count. I don’t do pictures of food, never does it justice, and all looks like brown mush.

Great vegan options on the breakfast / brunch menu. Yummy

Good selection of brunch options for vegan/veggies. We sat outside in the courtyard area as it was a nice day. Food was good.

I so so wanted to love this place- heard good things and menu had loads of veggie options! However, after waiting almost an hour for a burnt pizza, surrounded by endometriosis art, it was a weird experience and I won't be going back in a hurry

Slow service every time I’ve been.

What a find, the atmosphere was vibrant and the ethos of the place was noble. The food was amazing and considering how busy it was came very quickly. The staff were very friendly. I wish we had somewhere like this close to where I live.

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. Will be coming back

Liked their match latte.... Pizza looked really cool with peaches as a topping

I went there for breakfast and I'm really happy with the whole experience. The food was amazing, the place was lovely and the people who work there are really nice and friendly. I had the cinnamon bun with mascarpone and berries, the Welsh cake tiramisu and a hot chocolate. I recommend all of them. It was a bit busy when we got there, so I will suggest to call in advance to book a table, specifically around lunch time. I will 100% come back soon!!

Great food and lovely staff. Booked in at 830pm and after a busy lunch they could only offer a portion of the menu but staff were very apologetic and the food that was available was still very good so still a happy customer!

Staff were very rude to some of the members of our parry. There was a wait between some people getting food and others, which isn't good when your ein a group of 10 people. The food itself was noce and the menu was very interesting. Had a great selection of cocktails which were reasonably priced.

A true food-gallery art in Swansea with top food in the area, excellent service, the most attentive hosts and staff I've seen in years. Seems they're really happy serving. Vibrant yet homie atmosphere. A whole sensory experience.

Homemade Vegan Cawl.. Pint of Tenby Brewing Hammerhead.. Wow! Amazing guys, Faultless ❤

Goal is to try everything on the menu! Have been twice and both times the food and atmosphere have been amazing. Service is so good as well and everyone is really friendly. Absolutely love the music too. Had brie and cranberry pizza with stir in hot chocolate, highly recommended.

Beautiful good, great service and lovely atmosphere:)

Delicious food, lovely people, very recommended

Fabulous place to eat fabulous food and get the fabulous Coaltown coffee!

Love this place perfect for brunch 💚❤️🧡

Lovely ! Fresh food, human beings, great service. They handle allergies without a fuss, nothing is too much trouble. Can’t fault it. 👍

Slow service although staff did apologise for this. Staff nice, food I thought was quite expensive for what it was. Love cup of coffee

Great coffee and very warm environment

Excellent food, beer and service. Will be back soon
