Il panino in Bridgend

Really Fancied a panini this morning. Headed down here and had the chorizo chicken and cheese panini. Was absolutely lush. Josh and his staff are very friendly and accommodating. Lovely hot chocolate too. Lovely to sit outside and watch the world go by. Well worth a visit

Poped on for a light lunch. Nice people, reasonable selection of fare. My better half ordered a salad, what came was great , good quality and lots of it. My jacket potato with coronation chicken was not so great, the coronation chicken was the worst I've ever tasted and the potato was watery and tasteless. After a couple of mouthfuls I couldn't fight my trough any more and left it. It put me off any more food so didn't see the point of complaining at the time. The venue replied to my review statingvthat I cleared my plate, I can assure you that I did not! I was very hungary but did not finish even one half of the spud. It was watery and the coronation chicken was foul. I certainly did not finish my plate as stated by the venue.

My husband and I went off to climb up to the castle while our friends went looking for coffee. We joined them on the way back and were really glad they chose this place. Lovely welcome, excellent coffee at a sensible price and the best scones we've eaten for ages. Seating is mostly upstairs in a lovely light an airy room. A really delightful experience.

Lovely food, service and place to have food x

We have been spending a lot of time in Bridgend recently and this is a gem of a discovery. We had coffee and croissants on Saturday afternoon with a classic car show going on around the town centre. The food was excellent and the coffee was among the best I have ever had. Sitting out the front in the sun you are in a nice aphnosphere and in my veiw this coffee shop can rival any of the ones in the popular European cities

Never disappointed, lovely breakfast. Friendly staff. We'll priced. Highly recommended.

We ordered a last minute platter for our work lunch - Josh was extremely helpful and put together the most amazing platter of homemade sandwiches and homemade cakes and fruit! I would 100% recommend for excellent food , service and value for money! Thanks again / we will be back!

Great service, excellent bacon roll, and lovely coffee. Conveniently located in the pedestrian area. This is a quirky old building with comfortable seating. Will definitely revisit

Had a lovely piping hot coffee this morning with hot buttered toast! Gorgeous, thanks again Josh, delicious!

Pleasant cafe with all the classics on the menu, good upstairs seating area. Coffee is great and the food seems very nice quality and everything was piping hot, perfect for a grey day. Cheers!

Lovely little cafe with very nice coffee, delicious bagels and friendly staff. Their seating area upstairs is cozy, except local radio is playing!

Tasty sandwiches, lovely coffee and always friendly service 😊

Lovely food and great staff. Couldn’t ask for much more

Just ordered broccoli and stilton soup looked absolutely disgusting , full of oil and wasn’t able to eat wouldn’t even feed it to my dog looks nothing like facebook photos wouldn’t waste money on the soup on the other hand sausage sandwhich was nice

Amazing service and delicious food

Great panninis and decent coffee. Nice spot to sit outside when the sun is out. Staff are always super friendly too

Ordered breakfast on Just Eat and was not disappointed. Arrived boiling hot and all good ingredients. Would definitely recommend.

Ordered the Premium Corporate Buffett, could not have been happier with the service and the food was delicious! Highly recommend

Outstanding good, friendly staff and excellent price lovely healthy variety of food too. Had 2 fried eggs, 2 hard boiled eggs, 2 brown toast, and avacado on both toast and a coffee for 10 pound cannot fault that.

Absolutely wonderful customer service and fantastic quality food! Ordered a caramel latte and it was 100% the best coffee I’ve ever had in my life!🎉 thank you both for a wonderful experience, will definitely be returning!

Ordered 2 pastrami bagles and 2 coffees. Coffee were great, content of bagles are delicious but the bagle itself was sooo unbelievablely stale. Tried to power through a couple of bites as I was so hungry but in the end just had to eat the filling and throw the rest. Such a shame.

Afternoon tea for a baby shower couldn't fault it, it was beautiful. Lovely selection of sandwiches and cakes, vegan and vegetarian were catered for, fabulous. The staff were lovely even though we kept them a little late.

A little gem of a place, their upstairs space is perfect for a party of people. My baby shower was held here and was an easy process from start to finish. The staff can't do enough for you and the food is fresh and delicious, not to mention great value. We had the afternoon tea and it was amazing. Thanks so much Josh & team! 🖤

Beautiful food always served with the warmest welcome! All the staff are amazing!

Absolutely beautiful food!!!! Everything about our visit was good, the food time was decent and it tasted so fresh and delicious we enjoyed it so much and would definitely recommend, good price too!

Delicious and reasonably priced food, friendly and professional service, nice sitting outside, inside looks lovely too.

The food was lovely, very good value for money. Very clean, warm and welcoming environment. The staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. Would definitely recommend and go back.

First time visiting in a few years (no longer in Bridgend area) and not disappointed! Food came out fresh, tasty and well presented. Staff super friendly and more than willing to satisfy. Also grabbed a takeaway baguette for my travels. Top notch, quick, tasty grub. One of a few jewels left in Bridgend Town. Definitely recommend!!

We popped in for a panini and coffee. Great food and great service so would highly recommend you pay a visit and support this local business

Amazing food and very friendly staff ,lovely place !

Very kind and friendly staff. Jacket potato 👌🏼👌🏼

The new owner Josh is a very polite and gentle person the customer service is excellent and the food is first class I will highly recommend

Lovely food lovely welcoming staff 👌

I go to Il panino at least 2 times a week. some how they cafe is so good, full of flavours, and She does best Baked Potatoes as well

Basic food done well with lovely bagets and jackets potatoes.. Lovely owners as well & have been coming here for years

Very friendly service and lovely food. Would definitely recommend.

Great coffee here, proper cappuccino. Decent size cup. Paninis are excellent too. Love to sit outside on a Sunny day with a panini and a beer!

Great service and fair prices. Local businesses need our support. Part of government eat out scheme.

Called in for a takeaway coffee lovely staff and great coffee will be back

Absolutely wonderful place. Popped in for a bacon butty and a cuppa one morning and then headed back for lunch too....with the kids in tow. Service was impeccable and had a lovely chat with the owners about this difficult time. Please support local, these guys are amazing. We will be back....and soon. In fact, feeling peckish just thinking about the ham and cheese panini we had....lovely.

Lovely food freshly prepared...friendly helpful staff and the biggest house plant in Wales in the cosy seating area upstairs

Friendly and sometimes very busy. Good panini and coffee.

There are many cafes in Bridgend but this is the best. The staff are very friendly and eager to please. There are a couple of tables on the ground floor with the main seating area being upstairs. The cafe is busy and those stairs certainly keep the staff fit. The cafe is nicely situated on a corner of the Cenotaph square in the centre of town where you can sit when weather allows. It looks lovely from outside and is equally nice inside. The bay windows are fully utilised giving customers the chance of watching the world go by on the street below. Last but by no means least, the food and drink is very good. Good coffee and tea and, as you might expect from its name, very tasty sandwiches. Their bacon roll is simple but not to be beaten. The cafe also seems to have a good regular take away trade with local business people. Always a good sign.

Visit Il Panino and enjoy being with friends even if you are on your own .It is situated in town centre and easy access to transport links and many other amenities .

Freshly baked bacon roll and a freshly made coffee come highly recommend. A busy and popular cafe with friendly staff and service with a smile. Upstairs seating has views out over the pedestrian street or on a dry day there's outdoor seating too.

Love the food here as it's made to order as I like it. One place I can guarantee I'll have fresh food

popped in here for a lamb and mint panini for lunch , and sat outside with my daughter in the warm weather and food was very nice and the staff were friendly , would happily visit again :)

I have bought food here many times over the years. The prices of late are extortionate. Given that the staff miserable as well I think I'll take my business elsewhere.

Me pareció que había pop hoy aquí Greggs estaba lleno y para un cambio me apetecía dar este negocio local.

This is a lovely place to go. It's close to work and we regularly call in for lunch. My fave is the chicken, chorizo and mayo panini. Staff are polite and service is quick. A bit pricey but worth the money.

Great service from the staff at Il Panino!! As a new business to the town (Devonalds) we today had bacon rolls all round and by far were the most amazing rolls we have all ever tasted!!! This could be very dangerous with such an outstanding café on our doorstep!! will definitely be back for more!

This is a lovely place for a freshly made continental snack and coffee. There is room to eat downstairs and on terrace on a fine day,but it is worth the little steep climb to the upper level for a relaxing ,comfy lounge feel. Love It!!

Es con pesar escribo esto como he estado yendo a este café por un número de años, y creo que el precio actual aumenta en el último año son abusivos donde la comida no refleja en estos precios. Nunca se ha puesto carteles o letreros para avisar a los clientes de el aumento en los precios, dijeron que uno de los aumentos fue para cubrir el costo del aumento de límite de estar todos los días. Un bacon sandwich era de £2 libras aumentado 2,70, me cobraron un pequeño chocolate caliente en £3,70 sólo el pasado fin! Estamos muy a menudo pagan precios diferentes para tostadas £1.50 por 2 piezas de un día y el siguiente, £1.20 paninis y chaqueta asadas también varían en precios de un día para otro. Parece ser el mismo precio para comer como comer demasiado donde cada otro establecimiento de cargos para comer en bridgend más que sacar. Creo que los precios deberían ser examinados como los clientes empezarán a ir a otro lugar como yo lo haré. Es una pena ya que el personal es amable y la comida normalmente es el 80% del tiempo muy agradable. Entiendo que habrá aumentos de precios, pero para hacerlo 3 veces en el último año es simplemente ridículo.

Excellent coffee. nice seating; a welcome rest from shopping. Didn't try the food but service was as expected. Very good,

He pasado esta pequeña joya muchas veces, pero nunca me llamó. Siento decir que bridgend tiene terribles cafés pero es un lugar estupendo para comer. Llamé en primera mitad de la semana y nos sentamos en una mesa abajo. Me quedé sorprendido por la cantidad de gente llamar para tomar un camino sandwich - obviamente, un popular lugar para comer bocadillos para empresas locales. Así que con la competencia disponibles debe ser bueno! También era interactuar encantadora para ver personal con algunos personajes 'locales' que obviamente sentir como en casa en este pequeño lugar fantástico. En mi primera visita tuve un pastel casero - la ensalada servido con fue excepcional! Piña, maíz dulce, hojas mixtas Peppers ¡GUAU!

Si lo que quieres es un muy buen comer bocadillos y una taza de café, este es el lugar para ir, el personal es amable y la comida es estupenda, el panini es para morirse, muy agradable y nos encantaría volver :)

Had a lovely lunch here recently..We sat outside and watched the people go by .Our Paninis and coffees were delicious.I recommend this little gem of a place for lunch in town.

I regularly meet my partner here for a quick lunch. Always efficient service, excellent coffee and the Panini's are perfect. Personal favorite is the bacon, bree & cranberry!

Their paninis are so good we now have Panini Friday in work!! I'm partial to their Mexican chicken with cheese and pineapple!! Yummy!! Lovely and spicy, always hot and fresh. My colleagues favourites are the chicken in pesto with sundried tomato paste and cheese which I hear is also yummy!! Bit of a squeeze inside as downstairs is quite small and it does get very busy but it is worth the wait!!

I love it here whether to sit down and watch the world go by whilst enjoying my lunch or a takeaway baguette. Always lots of choice and the staff are lovely! Had the toffee apple hot chocolate today, it was lovely.

The food here is lovely. Take away or eat in we always enjoy it here. I like to sit on the table by the window and watch the world go by whilst enjoying my lunch.

Went to II Panino a couple of months ago with a friend for coffee and a sandwich at lunchtime and was pleasantly surprised. I didn't realise there was an upstairs and we sat up there (there are quite a lot of steep stairs to get to the lounge). We ordered coffee and sandwiches which were delicious, big sandwiches with a side salad, all very fresh and filling. The upstairs is small but lovely and very homely and if you sit by a window you can watch the world go by whilst enjoying your food. A little gem in the centre of town for a snack so give it a go.

Really enjoy going here for a quick espresso and Heidi and the staff are always so nice! Only wis there was more downstairs seating .

smart, well run place which wouldn't be outta place on cowbridge high street,good quality food and beverages with friendly staff,prices very reasonable to,will be regular visitor when coming into town centre

Didn't think it would be possible to make a bad pannini, apparently so, it's cold inside and the overall experience isn't pretty and that's being polite.

always great tasty food with a smile.coffee is great ,nice to sit upstairs and watch the world go by.

If you're looking for somewhere in Bridgend to enjoy a really good coffee, a light meal and great service, Il Pannino is were to go.You can sit outside and watch the world go by or sit upstairs in a very nice relaxing lounge.
