Ocean Lab Coffee Shop in Pembrokeshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

There is a real effort to offer something here but concept is average and service speed and ability too inconsistent. The location sells NOT the concept! Bite the bullet; bring in a professional to teach service and basic kitchen skills and get this high profile place off the ground! The pop up seafood cafe at Lower Town does less and attracts more! A skillful operator here aiming for fresh fish, lobster, crab lunches in season and breakfast and afternoon teas all year round will one day make this the number one place to dine in Fishguard Bay. Sorry to say, the place needs focus, a business plan or concept realization and much more effort by management.

Breakfast was very poor, inedible shards of overcooked oven bacon,sausages ok, beans in a small coffee cup with a hard skin on top. Fried egg ( the only egg option) very hard, no runny yolk. And a bread roll as staff ( friendly) advised there was no bread ( 10am) Carpet and floors very dirty with grass, mud and food crumbs, we were the first customers of the day. Gift shop was well stocked with great goods and clean.

Great coffee , great service . Very friendly staff and great at bringing the drink over. Clean toilets . Outside clean too .

Excellent food, excellent coffee. Lovely light happy atmosphere. Favourites were cappuccino, breakfast roll, carrot cake, flapjacks.

Lovely cafe, now under new management and a beautiful setting overlooking Fishguard Bay. Fresh, delicious lunch menu, very good coffee and just one moan....we need a larger selection of mid-morning cakes again please guys!! Great that dogs are NOT allowed inside - thank you from the silent majority. 🙂

Met with friends for a coffee and snack after our Welsh class. Staff are friendly and lovely, all very clean and fresh, plants and a good clean up is a great improvement. Coffee is excellent and the rolls with breakfast food are delicious! Just such a good place to meet, you just have to keep going back. Bendigedig!

Thank goodness the Ocean Lab Cafe changed hands at Easter 2023. Their Barista coffee is superb and the cakes delicious. I will definitely be going along for breakfast soon especially since they teamed up with our local nourish bakery. Looking forward to lunch later in the week. The staff are extremely friendly and efficient. The cafe has been redecorated and upgraded before their recent opening and is bright, fresh and very clean. Plenty of tables outside to stop for a coffee after taking our dog for a walk on the designated beaches nearby.

Delicious food and wonderful Teifi coffee. My husband and I are coffee snobs so we love Teifi coffee, made in Wales from freshly ground beans...the only sort I will drink. Also recommend the loose leaf tea (where else can you get this in Pembrokeshire?), breakfast rolls and carrot cake! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu! The atmosphere is very welcoming and happy. Would highly recommend a tour of the aquarium or a seashore safari before/after your meal to discover the amazing creatures that are hidden below the Pembrokeshire waves. So good to know that all proceeds from the cafe, shop and tours goes towards conserving our sea life :)

Gorgeous view and location, friendly staff and reasonable priced menu. I ha coffee and cake both were delicious.

Couldn't fault the staff who were friendly enough. But the coffee and hot chocolate from their machine was absolutely grim. Push button machines are never good, but the coffee was watery, sweet and tasted terrible. Hot chocolate also from machine was watery and tasteless. Spray cream on top did nothing to help. Cakes looked good, but glad we didn't purchase. 1 sip was enough, we got up and left our full cups behind. Yuck!! Venue could be fabulous, if they just invested in a proper machine and some training.

Really friendly service, good value, choices for vegetarian, great views, great for families, fresh cakes.would recommend.

What a fab place, amazing views to have a lovely lunch, all cakes made on site. Lovely shop to browse around, well worth p Calling in.

We had a quick lunch on our walk. It was ok but nothing special. The staff are nice and polite. The few of the Goodwick harbour is the best part of it. The price was reasonable.

This little cafe by the sea and part of Ocean lab is a little gem of a find. The food is delicicous, lots of homemade cakes and sandwiches, and a good choice of lunches. I can recommend the hot chocolate and the Victoria sponge!

We stopped for a snack. I had jacket potato and coronation chicken. The coronation chicken is homemade and was tasty, tasty. My partner just had a cheese and tomato sandwich. His sandwich was lacking in tomato and the grated cheese was fine and didn’t stay in the sandwich. I didn’t have cake. But it looked lovely. This place is in a great location on the sea front with disabled parking outside. It is also dog friendly

We both ordered a salad, which came in a bowl, loads of lettuce, sliced tomato and cucumber, a sprinkle of carrot and spring onion with your choice ham or coronation chicken on top, a piece of baguette and butter. Costing £8.50. We asked if they had coleslaw, which cost an extra £1.50 each portion. We thought this was not value for money. Why does it cost £10 to eat healthy?? I know I could go up the road get pie and chips for about £4.50. Putting that to one side, nice friendly staff and beautiful area, we love it. We won’t be having a salad there again.

Stopped here for a quick break and a coffee and piece of cake. The staff were pleasant, the arrangements for covid very safe. There was seating ouside but a bit limited and could do with refreshing. Overall the coffee was good as was the cake. There is a nice view over the ferry terminal. There are toilet facilities in the cafe and nearby. Car parking nearby is charged for although there is a free car park over the road. This is a bit wierd as most councils have abolished car park charges to attract trade. Still this is not really anything to do with the cafe!

Not the best cuppa only Luke warm,staff not overly attentive .wont rush back ,the only good thing was the view!!

Nice cafe . pleasant staff. Good range of light lunches . Seating area quite large and roomy . Reasonable prices .

We both had omlettes, really tasty. I had the best latte I've had in a long time. Lovely service and food again. Thank you.

As ever food really nice and place very clean. We are regularcustomers to this cafe. On occasions we just call for a coffee rather than food but always we are made welcome. Hope to continue visiting in the future.

Called in for coffees and ice cream. 2people in queue ahead of us, server apologised for the wait. So pleasant and unrushed. Cheap prices and all served with a smile!

Great food served in a lovely location with an amazing view of Goodwick Bay. Great playground for young children close by.

Had tea and cake here after walking along the harbour jetty, lovely home made blondies and great tea!

A latte, scone, beans on toast and 3 ice creams was around £10. Not really much to say. Staff nice. Quick service. Attached to ocean lab, sea views, clean toilets and a play area outside.

great little place. little park for the kids and a great view of the sea/harbour great fishing on end of jetty (lighthouse)

Called in today and spotted the coffee and cake deal.....asked for coffee and walnut cake and was told that it was sold out so, ordered a Victoria Sponge, Cherry and Almond, Carrott Cake..... all were different size and thickness and extremely dry! Whilst eating them we were all taken aback when a new Coffee & Walnut cake appeared in the display case????The hot chocolate was very grainy and tasted more of coffee than chocolate with no marshmallows compared to table next to us....Not happy and will not be returning in a hurry....

After taking a walk along the breakwater we decided to pop into the Ocean Lab Coffee Shop for a coffee.Whilst there,we couldn't resist a piece of Home made sponge cake which we shared and enjoyed.The views are nice and the gentleman who served us was very friendly.The prices are a little expensive but not so bad as to put us off returning some time in the future.

This is a really good location for a coffee, light lunch, watch the ferry departing or arriving or just to sit and watch the world go by. Lovely food and friendly staff.

Strange this place was suppose to offer so much now only intrest a cafe. Variety ok nice cakes, I liked the cake drink combo package. Please why can't we have a child one to. Staff friendly, lady had a laugh enjoyed the banter great to see.

I'd just come back from a walk so this was a perfect stop for refreshment. The prices are good and the member of staff who served us was really friendly.

Great place to stop when out on the bike. Really friendly service and a decent cappuccino and some welcome free chocolate to re-fuel, would recommend this place.

Great little cafe/restaurant suitable for families and walkers. Stopped off when out for a walk, very friendly staff with a nice selection of snacks and lunches

Fantastic homemade cakes, free WiFi, really friendly staff who offered to help carry the tray upstairs, good value for money, the only reason this place doesn't get an excellent is the toilets, smell a bit weary and could do with a spruce, tho not unclean. And what a view out into Goodwick, stunning!! Pics attached, ignore the half eaten cake, started eating before remembered the photo!

Salad isn't nice at all..I've ordered food on different occasions and after paying then sitting down they have come to me because they haven't got what I have ordered!

We popped in for an afternoon snack, after a long coast path walk. We ordered from the board, not realising there was a standard menu (may be that could be clearer for new visitors?), had spicey potato wedges, which when they arrived we found were covered in grated cheese - more like cheesy chips - we ate them anyway but it was not what we were expecting. A comfortable place to watch the world go by - would have liked to try a different meal from the menu. Perhaps next time!

Great coffee and flapjacks! Stayed for lunch ..just a salad followed by ice cream but very nice. Smashing serving team, nothing too much trouble. Lovely to sit outside and watch the comings and goings on the parog. Outside seating has tables/benches with spaces specifically for wheelchairs.

We had a wide range of foods including an omelette, a panini and a sub-roll. All were tasty and were enjoyed and came with salad and nachos on the side. Nice cakes and ice cream too. Very clean and a nice gift shop. Highly recommended.

We visited the Ocean Lab Coffee shop around lunchtime today, now being a bank holiday, and being dry it was no great surprise to find there was not a table trees on the ground floor, so despite my disabilities and reliance upon my walking stick I left my partner to obtain our refreshments and headed upstairs to grab a table, the first one in fact with the bucket chairs, and was joined at the table by my son I tried to connect on my smart phone only to find I had no signal, and so on looking around I noticed at the other end of the first floor a free WiFi sign, I asked my commit he would mind popping along to it and obtaining the necessary password for me which he black did, and, the password was "ask at reception" so in other words no password would be obtainable without one of the other of us heading back down stairs and asking?? Not exactly welcoming or conducive to a relaxing ambience, especially being as explained, disabled! Now I know full well the type of response that would be given by the staff and proprietors of establishments such as this, "we don't put our password on show as we do not want non customers taking advantage of our free service"! So please try telling that excuse to the two youngsters sat at the very next table to our own where there's also a sign telling visitors not to eat their own food in the cafe or they would be required to leave, now neither youth had so much as a glass of water or packet of crisps between them, and yet they were both firmly seconded in their seats with their noses adhering to the screens of their smartphones absolutely mopping up that free WiFi android totaly unmolested for absolutely free for most of the time my family were here. So already not in the best of moods my partner arrived upstairs with our refreshments, as a 'trreat' to go with our own latte coffee she'd purchased two Welsh cakes each for us, so putting mine on my own plate I was slightly concerned at the allowance of one butter part of the small gold foil wrapped variety between two Welsh cakes, not exactly generous! And then on touching the Welsh cakes I discovered they were distinctly chilly, more so even than the hard cold butter?? Now a good Welsh cake should be fairly moist in my opinion, these may well have been so but they were so cold as to be very camp and have the impression of being pulled out of at least a fridge or chilled display? Now call me old fashioned but every place I have previously eaten a Welsh cake has served my cakes at a temperature substantially warmer than ambient room temperature, and in most cases warmed reasonably thoroughly the butter at minimum melting through the pastry on application, not so here in Goodwicks Ocean Lab Cafe? So maybe I'm being a little pedantic? But then again from my usual reviews I believe you will see I don't set out to destroy anyplace, far from it, I seek out the positives even where such things are difficult! But here I have to be negative!! My partner BTW did go all the way down and obtain the WiFi code for me, (octopus123) for those caught out similarly!! And then a member of staff came up stairs to clear a table, I made my complaint to him exactly as set out here, he failed to even to take ownership of the issue, or make any form of apology at all!! Working in a position where customer satisfaction is considered a key skill I was really perturbed by this lack of response at this venue! Now we might well have considered afterwards whilst browsing the gift shop that we would visit the ocean lab itself, but to be honest the lack of any customer care or professionalism in the cafe had left a bad taste in our mouths that actually made us shy away from visiting in case the same as hoc treatment persisted through the whole venue, I did however buy a silver ring from the gift shop for my partner, somewhat by way of an apology for the mood the shoddy customer care standards had instilled in me rather more than for making yet more revenue for the Ocean Lab itself!!

A little bit messy. Tables left uncleared and in wiped yet enough staff around for a small coffee shop.

Ocean Lab sounds like it's all fish - not so. One third of the ground floor is cafe, with generous volumes of coffee, an interesting range of mains and snacks, and good quality ice cream. Lovely!

Llamamos regularmente, siempre recibidos con una sonrisa y saludo? Creo que he probado casi todo, pero sus panecillos de bacon son deliciosos, las tartas son increíbles y las ofertas especiales es variada y tiene productos locales.

das Cafe hat eine super Lage , tolle Aussicht, nette Bediendung und super leckerer Kuchen. Wenn mann in Fishgard ist muss man dahin

On our visit to Goodwick we had a nice cup of coffee in the Ocean lab coffee shop we drank it upstairs and had a great view of the harbour and watched the ferry sail would definatly visit this establishment again

We go here with our kids every wk they have a play and then food staff are friendly and yes had one or two issues but they have been sorted straight away, the foods hot on time and although i haven't seen a sign they offer free coffee refills.if i had one negative about the meals it would be the kids meals need to be more child friendly! and the chairs upstairs have seriously bent legs! I have had a birthday party here also and they were fab.

We had lunch here.Delicious,The bread was fresh, healthy with side salad and low fat dressing,staff were courteous,toilets clean,we felt relaxed nobody rushed us, nice clean place to have lunch.

Popped in here today for coffee and cake. Definitely not disappointed, sticky toffee muffin to die for. Great latte too. Thank you guys, yet again. Fab views and a must to visit!

Lovely cafe nice view of the beach and ferrys from ireland, just for snack not a bigmeal, we had a baguette pizza and a coffee, then after the tour of the ocean lab we had half a scone each.

A lovely cafe set by the sea. Lovely welcome and great food. Sit back and enjoy the lovely views. Seating inside and outside so enjoy what ever the weather. The cafe is great location to enjoy the beach or stop for a coffee after having a walk

sat outside on a wonderful sunny day. Great food at reasonably prices. wonderful views of the bay. a place well worth a visit

Have eaten here regularly over the last 4 or 5 years,friendly staff, good value tasty food,ideal for children,there is a playground and a beach nearby

Ok place for coffee and make good cakes. It is a good place for groups to meet and have drinks together but lacks a bit in atmosphere. Good views of the harbor.

Once again just had,a lovely lunch here, the food is delicious and a lovely friendly guy serving. Treats you like a friend! Thank again and see you soon!

Love the location. Lovely food and coffee and love looking out at the sea, drinking coffee watching the day go by. Will be back.

Living in Goodwick, my husband and I make frequent visits to this café which has reasonably priced home-made food and weoften bring our visitors with us for a light lunch.

A lovely cafe/coffee shop over looking the water towards Fishguard ferry port. We only had tea/coffee which was good and a snack . Prices were very good and the coffee bar was very clean and the staff were very helpful. There is a childrens play are located inside the cafe and also souvenir stalls too. An excellent place to have a walk round outside and have refreshments afterwards in the cafe.

Staff are lovely, food is tasty and there's plenty of variety. Little bit pricey for what you get, but it was nice enough that we came back a second time later in the week. Great for lunch before/after a walk on the beach.

The Coffee shop is situated on the Waterfront and close to the small beach, harbour and a playground. Inside there is a small gift shop and marine wildlife visitor centre, together with a soft play area. The food is perfectly acceptable and the facilities are great for families with kids. Well worth a couple of hours, Summer or Winter.

Whenever I'm staying in the area I try to call in at least once for tea and some good 'home made' cake. Sometimes can be a bit busy with children running around downstairs, but it's usually quieter upstairs.

I have the location in my GPS from a few years ago, so I knew the food was good - but at Easter time I was concerned the Ocean Lab Coffee Shop might be closed for 'Bank Holiday'.How reassuring: "We are open every day of the year except Christmas and New Year's Day" This is a proper attitude to service.I ordered Bacon sandwich 'well done' on three occasions. Cooked quickly, presented with Corn Chips (aka Crisps in UK) and a salad garnish.I'm not a salad fan but their Corn Chips are fresh and crisp.Alongside the Coffee Shop is a gift shop with maps/postcards and souvenirsAfter lunch I walked the length of the breakwater; the wind could be described as 'very brisk'.When in Pembrokeshire, I will certainly be back to the Ocean Lab cafe.

Once again a lovely lunch, served by cheerful staff! And not too pricey as another reviewer mentioned. I think it's reasonable and we'll worth it! Give it a try lovely!

We are regulars here, two of us had lasagne and it was lovely came with side salad and two slices of garlic bread. My friend had a french bread pizza, very generous portion and very tasty according to my friend. Staff very friendly and helpful and service was quick, really good considering they were very busy. Beautiful views accros the bay. Very good value for money.

The Ocean Lab was nice and pleasant, it seems good for a quick lunchtime snack or drink. The service wasn't great I don't know if they were short staffed when I went but service was slow. The meal choices were OK, but what we did order didn't seem much for what we were charged. It's a nice place to eat, and the staff we did meet were pleasant. Would probably only use if popping in for a drink or snack.

lovely food, lovely people, great view of the fireworks on the 30th of October, amazing lighthouse slide outside kept the granddaughter happy for hours.

We came here on a damp and misty day as we knew we could park easily and enjoy the view. The coffee was good and the "rocky road" the best I have ever eaten so next time we are in the area we will come again.

Have been coming to ocean lab cafe for a number of years as the little beach and park are idea for children. They Always have a great selection of cakes and last week I liked how they had large slice of coffee cake or the option of it as a little fairy cake for 75p. As a mum with 5 this was a big hit with me and this is something the cafe should do more of.. Also you don't always want a large slice of cake. Kids had ice cream and it wasn't over priced. Coffee could be better as they charge high prices and it's just a machine coffee!! All in all I would recommend having cake and coffee and even lunch here. Lovely staff too

We stopped in for a quick coffee and snack and were pleasantly surprised. Scones with jam and cream were lovely and the filtered coffee hit the spot. Nearby sandy beach, play park and lighthouse slide were a hit with out 2 year old, and parking is very cheap at only 40p for two hours

Always enjoy having coffee or lunch at the ocean lab. Lovely views if you sit upstairs and staff are always polite and helpful. Nice cakes!

a nice place for a nice hot coffee and cakes. It has a nice view. The location has ample and easy parking

Great cafe and a lovely little soft play area for under 5's. Many many hours whiled away here with Ollie the octopus entertaining the small ones and the grown ups steadily working our way through the homemade cakes. Good events held here too, informative and interactive and children focused.

I regularly visit the area for walking but was with my partner this day and we stopped for lunch; we were both pleasantly surprised by the quality of food for the price (many places nearby turf out worse for more money) and I had the best omelette in a long time, my other half was most impressed by her jacket potato.Simple food but very well done; staff very pleasant as well, credit where credit is due

Best part of a visit to Ocean Labs is the cafe. Good selection at reasonable prices and a marvellous view.

We've been a few times now, not disappointed every time we've had lovely food! And what a lovely view! Thank you!

Last time I visited here was very upset to find a bone in my vegetable soup which I had specifically asked was the stock veggie !! I will never feel the same about this cafe as this was obviously an attempt to deceive. ( My money was refunded but the damage done). Appears tired at times. Used to be good hope it can improve as its a great spot.

A regular visitor to the Ocean Lab for meetings. Food is always good - freshly prepared and tasty. Service is friendly. The location, right by the harbour, is wonderful. Just remember that the carpark is pay and display, and do not forget to return to your car within the time!

My father used to work in Fishguard and we took him back down there to have a look around. We parked the car by the cafe and went for a walk around. I promised the children a cake and the Coffee Shop did not disappoint. The lady behind the counter was very friendly and the selection of cakes was just right. The views out across the bay were lovely and it was a nice day so the children could play outside on the slide. If you are looking for a treat I can recommend the fruit scone, it didn't touch the sides.

Lovely little place to have a cuppa while the Children play in the ball pit, lovely views of the beach and sea! Play area inside if it's raining and play area outside for when it's sunny :)

We enjoyed our coffee stop hereThe staff could not have been more helpful and friendly and we were impressed by the choice on the menuThe outlook is lovely and the other customers all seemed to be enjoying their visitA great stop after a walk

Found this place by accident as we made a day of the beachfront. We got cakes and coffee to start, which were homemade and lovely. I got carrot and my mother in law got the coconut and almond, both were great. We later went back for lunch and my husband got a steak and onion baguette, proper rump steak and huge portion, served with salad and doritos and I got brie, cranberry and bacon baguette. So tasty. The staff are friendly and helpful. The kids platter was great value for money, sandwich, crisps, salad and apple slices and a drink for £3. Lovely atmosphere, great views and ideally located to the lovely little beach! Excellent value for money! I can't wait for our holiday back to Pembrokeshire next year, we are visiting again :)

Oceanlab cafe is a great find. Good quality food, large portions and reasonably priced. Just what you want after a morning on the beach. Everything is homemade, staff were friendly and polite and the place is lovely and clean. Will definately visit if we are in the area again

After watching theTriathlon myself and my family had built up quite an appetite stopped off for food and refreshments and everyone enjoyed their choice and the service was great

Staff very friendly, reasonable prices and a great location by the harbour. As we had a sunny day when we visited, we were able to sit outside and enjoy the views.

I thoroughly enjoyed a Fresh Crab Sandwich and their ice cream.The venue is in Goodwick and very close to the sea. On Sunday afternoon you might be lucky to listen to a Brass Band just outside the coffee shop. Good for families as there is also a play area for the children.

We wanted a light lunch in a place with a view, near a car park, and this coffee shop was ideal. The menus were on the tables. We thought that what was on the Specials menu board was all they had but we were very mistaken As it was we had a filling soup with a piece of French bread and butter followed by coffee and a delicious cake each. If we are in the area again we will certainly revisit this establishment. As we were leaving I noticed that there was Wi-Fi which may be an added attraction for some people..

My companion and I both ordered home made tomato and basil soup. We were served two bowls of red liquid, having the consistency of water.The soup was totally without flavour and we complained.We were refunded the total cost and were told that this was not up to their normal standard.We noticed upon leaving that the soup was still advertised on the 'Specials' board.We will not be returning.

What a lovely place to have a coffee and one of their delicious home made cakes! They also do very nice home made lunches.The coffee shop is situated right at the seaside, with wonderful views on Fishguard Bay. Very close to the ferry port (Stena Line to Ireland), which makes it a good place to go to if you have to wait for the ferry (or if you've just arrived). Or if you just want to have a nice walk on the beach or the breakwater. There's also a small exhibition room about the local sea life in the bay.Always nice and clean, good service, very friendly staff, delicious food and coffees. There's also a Facebook page where you can find special offers, sometimes. :) It's https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Coffee-Shop-Ocean-Lab-Goodwick/130152893711584

We live in Goodwick, so visit the Ocean Lab cafe quite often for a coffee and sometimes a piece of cake. The Latte is always excellent and a very reasonable price. We particularly like it in winter as you can sit inside nice and warm with your coffee and feel like you are almost outside with the panoramic views through the almost 180 degree glass frontage.Only 4 stars rather than 5, as on a couple of occasions now we have shared a piece of cake between us as well and it has been dry and stale. If the cake looks like it has been sitting there for a while, then it probably has and will more than likely be dry and stale. I know business' need to make a profit and avoid wastage, but a couple of times more recently we have not ordered a piece of cake for this very reason. You could argue that they are actually doing themselves out of business by not disposing of stale produce and replacing it with fresh produce.

Lovely cafe on the front sit and watch the ferry come in.Outside seating on a good day watch the kids play oin the swing park while relaxing with a coffee and cake .There's even a beach next to it

This is a great Coffee shop right on the seaside. Good parking outside. Lovely seating area with great sea views.

A good atmosphere, the information centre, gift shop, kiddie play area and cafe blend together well. Accessible outdoor benches (good to see). Beach, slipway and enclosed play area on the doorstep.Friendly staff, good food, a lovely cup of tea :)

Nice cafe. We started off having a nice Ice cream and then we had something to eat. The menu wasnt that big and I had a salad which was delicious. My son was a bit miffed that the smoked sausage panini was actually a smoked hot dog and not actual sausage. But he still enjoyed it. He then stated there on the free wifi while I went and sunbathed on the beach. The aquariums there wereTiny but the chap on hand to give info out about them made up for the size of the tanks. It has so much potential to grow and its so sad to see parts closed down.Why not open in tourist months and just have the coffee shop and gift shop ( where I got some fab presents) for the winter? Too good to lose. Please support it! ( from a scouser who loved fishguard so much I want to move there)

The staff are attentive & the home cooked dishes very tasty & well proportioned. They also offer something a bit different and the coffee is delicious. Would definately recommend.

A lovely bright Coffee Shop situated overlooking the bay. Good service and prices. Lots to do for children here. Also nice little gift shop with reasonably priced goods.

This is a good place to nip in for a quick snack lunch. Baguettes soups etc all freshly made. We prefer eating outside but the weather has to be kind to enable this!!!!

Much more than a 'coffee shop' Wide range of dishes and various jams and chutneys for sale. Than take a walk on the breakwater until your boat comes in.

Nice location, good value food and always clean, just need the lady behind the counter to smile! Good place to go x

We were struggling to find something to do in the Fishguard area due to an unusual day of wet weather. We headed down to the ocean lab having recognised the name on the sign with a leaflet in our cottage folder. We were disappointed, parking was not free (as was mentioned in leaflet), there was a coffee shop but everything else was closed, with a sign saying something about the council no longer being responsible for this exhibition and there being no entry. This included the coastal exhibition, the soft play area and the cyber cafe. Very disappointing and sad looking despite there being a few people working hard to keep it going. We felt that it needed some finance from local council.

Ocean Lab Coffee Shop is a nice little cafe to pop into for a coffee and cake.The offer of a coffee refill is unusual but welcome.I felt that the cafe was somewhat limited on selection but what they did was quite acceptable.The view from the cafe was good overlooking Fishguard/Goodwick Bay.

My mum loves going here, she takes the grandchildren down to play in the soft play area while her and friends chat over tea and delicious cakes and biscuits. It also has a little shop were you cant help but buy something. Often a magnet for me as i collect them everywhere i visit.Have heard it might be closing and knocked down but how true this is i dont know, really would be a shame as its great for families to meet up and chat and play, visiters can look at the sea views and stay dry when it rains and kids are happy to play. If your down this way give it a go its a lovely little place!!!!!!

a place to go when the weather is bad and buy your postcards the small ocean lab there did,nt hold your curiosity for long .
