Pier Cafe in The Vale of Glamorgan - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ice cream is not impressive. Fish & chips similarly. Look for something else.

Worst cookie dough ice cream I’ve ever had other flavours are good though kinder bueno flavour is my personal favourite overall 4 stars specifically because of the cookie dough ice cream being so bad

Probably the rankest driest fish and chips l think lve ever paid 7 quid for

On a misty damp afternoon in February the Pier Cafe made a delightful place for a cup of tea after a brisk walk along the pier. Friendly staff, warm atmosphere and an excellent cuppa!!!

The blonde girl that works here is so miserable felt like you’re putting her out

We ate delicious fish and chips here in a great atmosphere.

Absolutely delicious ice-cream 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The charming seaside atmosphere of Penarth perfectly complemented the creamy and wide range of flavorful ice cream. Pier cafe's attention to quality was evident in the rich taste of the ice cream. The best ice cream, I have tried in Cardiff.

Friendly staff, but avoid fish and chips, am feeling nauseous an hour after eating. Frozen fish & chips, unusual for a seafront place.

Always got the overdone flavourless fish, very oily.

I tried only icecream, the location is amazing.

Lovely ice cream and nice service.

Very impressed with the service today. Had a soft cone and was very pleased when the person who served me showed me where the soft napkins when she saw me struggling to get one out of the container of thinner napkins.

A good tasty, ice cream friendly staff paid by card

Best service I’ve ever had, great singing and the ice cream was such high quality. Perfect for a day at the beach with the family.

Zero enthusiasm, the service was so poor. Dull and uninterested. Ice cream was okay.

Very polite and helpful staff, excellent variety of ice-cream to choose from.

Look if you don’t take cash, you don’t get my business, got that.. Don’t go here folks if you only have cash. Like the last owners they won’t last.

I went with my partner to have chips at the pier... It was a disappointment, tasteless chips ever. No flavour at all.

Pier Cafe is a perfect place at the beach for refreshing food. They serve fish & chips, fries, ice creams, hot and cold drinks, burgers, and hot food. We ordered two ice creams - Rasberry Ripple and Oreo Ice Cream. Both ice creams were perfect.

Rude staff, came in for a breakfast. Have been a number of times before and had great service. This time though an incredibly rude member of staff greeted me and lied to me claiming that food is only served after 11am saying "it says so on the menu you should read it" the menu stated breakfast is served UNTIL 11:30 nothing about when it starts. In fact I have been served multiple times here between 9-10 in the past. I do not appreciate being lied to as a customer just because the staff member was unwilling to serve food. If they don't want to cook say so don't lie and claim the customer hasn't read non-existant rules. Won't ever be coming here again.

Avoid Fish and chips here like the plague. If you are at the seafront why do you use frozen fish? Tasteless at that.

Worst fish and chips ever... Frozen and tasteless.

Excellent coffee and tea.Lovely fish and chips.Melt in the mouth battered fresh cod and fluffy chips for a mere £6!Such nice staff at a busy time.My friend and I will be back!Highly recommended!

Food was good but a little overpriced. I asked for a baguette which is higher priced than a sandwich but got a sandwich. I requested a part refund due to it being the wrong requested item. They said that they needed to refund and re-do the whole order. So that was done. I had a small refund receipt but have now discarded of it. Didn’t realise I haven’t got refunded and was charged twice slightly different prices due to the baguette/sandwich. I have no way to contact them online or phone from what I can see. Would love my refund as I’ve basically paid over £30 for 2 sandwich meals :( hopefully this can be resolved if able to contact but I’m a little sceptical to eat there again due to this

Lovely ice creams. Fish n chips were served hot and fresh with variety of sauces n salt/vinegar. Other selections include burgers and chicken

The spinach and chick pea pies are homemade and very tasty, as is the homemade hometty pie. The coffee is mellow and very tasty. Prices are average for the Penarth area. Views from the Café are excellent.

I work for the national autistic society and have now used this cafe multiple times with different students, visited today with a gentleman who communicates vis pecs - picture exchange communication system. He selected his pecs and gave them to the lady behind the counter who took them and handed them back she then spoke solely to my service user asking him if he wanted a flake. I then asked him in sign language if he wanted one and she watched his response ( the smile on his face when I mentioned chocolate) and then proceeded to select the largest flake she could find for the ice cream. She was patient polite and happy to serve us.

The best ice cream from Penarth and Cardiff. Lovely staff and the service is very good. Thank you. The fish and chips are okay but the ice cream is really yummy 😊

Friendly staff, nice for coffee, ice cream, sweets etc but avoid for fish and chips. I paid £6 for (frozen NOT fresh fish) and (frozen NOT real chips). Being at the seafront, I expected fresh Fish and real chips.

Nice location, however, we ordered fish and chips and the chips were raw, couldn't eat them really. The sauces are also not the best.

Ordered fish and chips. Fish was good, but the Chips were not fully cooked. Mayonnaise looked and tasted like cream. Ketchup had a fruity flavour, definitely not like tomato. Not worth the price!

Always lovely staff & service! Great food, vegan too & great coffee! Fabulous views of the pier & great for people watching! 👍

Great little cafe on the corner of the promenade and the pier. Always busy. Dog friendly. Serves cold and hot food and drinks and ice creams. I had a rum and raisin icecream.

Delicious food and very nice cashier. Fish n chips came with tartar sauce, plenty of salt, vinegar, and ketchup to add.

Nice and clean good range of teas and coffee, very popular

We organised to have chips for our wedding guests from here after getting married in the Pavilion and they were so friendly and helpful it was a great addition to our day!
