Lovely independent coffee shop in the heart of Mold. Staff are friendly and welcoming to all. Ignore the false hate campaign against this great establishment by far-right racist Ian Davies (aka Shaggerada). Someone confronted him on his vile views and he is calling for a Boycott and accusing staff wrongfully of Islamophobia. I love popping here for a coffee with my dog, staff are always very friendly to all.

Coffee was fine but the seating area outside was filthy, litter and fag ash left on the tables, seats and floor. Staff delivered coffee to the table and just removed the empty cups and plates with zero effort to clean the litter and fag ash on the table… I wont be back…

Staff as always lovely! Don’t know what’s going on at the moment but things have changed and the coffee hasn’t been as flavourful or as nice as it was! Almost like a cheaper version or less being used?? I don’t know what it is but it’s just not as it was!

Mold High St has a distinct bustle particularly on market days. Rubens Coffee is centrally placed for refuge and take time for coffee and a snack. On a dismal December late morning we stepped inside for a warming drink. My bacon sandwich was crammed with crispy thin sliced bacon and my wife’s toasted tea cake was served with a generous patter of butter. Most of the indoor seats were taken yet surprisingly on a winter’s day more customers sat outside at tables in the adjacent alleyway. It was good that customers had that choice.

Tables aren't cleaned very efficiently or effectively, tables were being cleared around us but not actually wiped and cleaned down, drinks were nice and hot but cleanliness was lacking considering the amount of staff working.

My first time in Mold, Im not from the area, I popped in alone with my little dog ( cafe is Dog friendly great plus) for a take out cappuccino and ended up staying having a chat to local people who were charming, i think this establishment is brilliant for the community, and the Cappuccino was very nice.

I ate here today and I have no complaints about the food. However, Rubens occupies 2 units and, strangely, only does hot food in one of them although there are probably only 10 steps or so between them. As I wanted hot food and it appeared that we were in the cold unit, it seemed to be a challenge for them to go from one unit to the other. (Incidentally, my friend had a "hot" panini which apparently was ok in the cold unit!). They did eventually relent and made the journey from one to the other. Overall, the place was rather tired and I didn't like that the toilet was right next to the eating area and the door into the toilet was left open most of the time. They said they had run out of serviettes - as we were in the middle of town it wouldn't have taken much initiative to buy some more from a nearby shop. Although our order was taken by a helpful female I felt that most of the staff weren't very friendly. All in all, I won't be returning.

Happened to be in Mold on a Sunday afternoon looking for somewhere open. Found this place and it looked quite trendy. It seems to have a large area in the courtyard but they were using the cafe part at the end. It had stopped serving cooked food which seemed a bit early but I they did excellent coffee and pastries. I was able to sit and while away the time in a pleasant and clean place. Service for me was good and there was a nice relaxed atmosphere about the place. Good for walkers who came in and then sat outside - a bit cold for that I thought. I know it has mixed reviews but what I saw was fine. I think you should give it a go and see. I need to go back really when the place is in full swing. I did look for somewhere to stop in the other towns and villages but they all looked dead so I was pleased to find this place.

We visited Rubens for lunch today, it wasn't too busy and ordered our food at the till as standard. We waited 40 minutes before a lovely waiter handed us our cutlery. After another 10 minutes, and serving customers who ordered after us, he came back and asked us what food we had ordered as it hadn't gone through to the kitchen yet. Terrible communication and ridiculous wait on food for a small restaurant. Asked for our money back and left.

I'm a regular visitor to Rubens, visit 3 times a week on average. The service is not the best but the coffee is lovely. It's been going downhill (staff shortages, lack of consistency, ear deafening smoothie maker in the Diner) but I've persevered. Visited a week ago for a latte. Just as I was coming to the end, I gagged on a piece of sugar sachet. I wasn't going to say anything but if you don't, then how can they improve? I mentioned it to the woman with a blonde ponytail (supervisor / manager)? She looked shocked, said sorry and that it must have happened in the dishwasher. And that was it. No offer of a refund or free drink (I'd have taken the refund). Awful. Emailed the office when I returned home. No response. Nada. Shameful customer service.

This use to be a great little cafe with friendly staff and fast service. It does panini's toast, tea and coffee which are all decent enough. More recently it has added ice cream and breakfasts to its menu.It's gone downhill since it expanded into two shops though. The problem here is at more chairs than staff to service the customers in them. There's more outside eating spaces which is great if you have a dog, but the real problem i think is that staff are surly and you couldn't buy a smile from them these days. i'd gladly wait longer if i felt my custom and patience was appreciated. Many people i expect come here to avoid the corporate politeness of the nearby costa. But the choice now is between corporate politeness or surly disregard.

Went there for lunch on a saturday. Seems that the place does not seem able to cope with number of people around on market day. This is somewhat of a shame as the food was very nice, however the service was attrocious. None of the staff seemed to have been given any instruction on what to do so we had several members of staff asking what individuals ordered despite the tables being numbered. Also other people coming in were told there would be a 30 min wait which didn't reflect particularly well when the building was almost empty at the time. They got the order wrong, which was a major strike against it as a member of our group was allergic to eggs. Finally (and this is more of a personal gripe so your mileage may vary), the tables have a thick layer of varnish on them which doesn't go well with hot food. Just make sure you don't need to move your plate or you'll be spending ages trying to essentially rip it off the table. Overall, this place left a bad first impression. Again this is a shame as I thought the food was lovely and the staff, though directionless, were friendly enough. I want to believe this was just a bad day but I feel they really need to improve the service and use days like this as a learning experience to make sure this doesn't happen again in the future.

No Napkin or Cutlery provided when food was brought to table had to ask for it … No Sugar or sauces on the tables …Was a table in the café at the side with bowls on but no sugars in them … This is not a Costa and you expect better service for the price you pay you spend more time getting up from table to go and ask for things that should automatically be provided for … Its not cheap here but they really need to up their game … There are quite a few café in Mold provide breakfast and their tables have sugar and sauces on the table and always provide napkins … I hope they do because the quality of the food is good

We went to Mold to a specific shop and called into Rubens whose Prenton place we love planning a coffee & a hot snack. It was a Saturday Market Day which is presumably a weekly event?

As 2 vegetarians the menu was beyond limited and £3.95 for a bagel with cream cheese is completely unacceptable. The coffee was ok but the chocolate syrup used to decorate it was cheap ice cream syrup that tasted synthetic and acrid. The tea was bland with very little flavour. We both opted for toast and received 2 pieces of cheap bread and standard catering butter that was more greasy than buttery. The location is great BUT you have to walk down a narrow avenue of tables full of smokers and with the doors open (as they should be in this lovely weather) the smoker sat a metre from the door might as well been inside with us. Seating smokers next to open doors is disgusting. I won't be returning to walk through a wall of around 12 smoking tables before I even get to the front door. So very disappointing and off putting.

Have visited a number of times and Rubens never fails to impress! I can find no fault with them (although I personally wouldn’t recommend the chocolate milkshake; I think it was hot chocolate with ice cubes in and cream on top - it came slightly warm and was the consistency of chocolate milk!!) The staff are the friendliest I’ve met and you can tell they really are very talented at making hot drinks. I am also always impressed with the food choices they have which are really quite something - wish I had a photo to upload! I have had coffee and hot chocolate here and I think the hot drinks are very well made and - importantly - the staff always have a smile on their face (which can’t be said for costa across the road!)

A great coffee shop that provides great service and great quality. They coudl do with a better food offering as it's very limited but overall a great place.

Necesitaba un buen café y me dieron una excelente plana de un blanco. Esta era mi primera visita y puedo recomendar el lugar. Tengo que admitir que no tienen nada para comer (sólo porque yo estaba en mi camino al dentista) pero había un buen ambiente y claramente el personal se enorgullecen de su trabajo. Hay asientos tanto en el interior como en el exterior. Un pequeño paraíso. Pruébelo.

Tuvimos ocasión de repente a moho ayer y estábamos buscando un lugar para un café cuando nos topamos con un refrán habitación café y un panini por £4. 95". Siempre uno para una ganga decidimos echar un vistazo y Rubens parecía estar bien, parecía ser modelado a un Costa y parecía tranquilo mucha gente, pero no llena, así que en las que fuimos. Elegí un pollo, tocino y chili panini mientras mi esposa fue por un trozo de tarta de zanahoria. Le pregunté cuántas vacunas que ponen en su café regular y fue informado por el joven que era dos. Así, pedí dos americano y algunas separada de la leche. Después de un corto periodo de tiempo la orden llegó, reconozco que no todos vienen a reunirse - pastel de zanahoria (el remate era un poco demasiado dulce), dos cafés entonces el panini, pero todo no llega en un tiempo razonable y ambos cafés y el panini nos sirven caliente.

Tendemos a visitar aquí después de caminar a la ciudad, el personal era extremadamente amable y feliz, un ambiente muy hogareño. El café es el mejor de moho la comida es limitada, pero correctas.

Visited The Mold shop with our dog not realising it was part of the same chain i was impressed with at Liverpool Central Station. Beautiful coffee, knocks Costa for 6 without the 20p increase that Costa have just inflicted on its customers and also able to sit outside which is not possible at Mold Costa, Great Brand looking forward to trying the Chester store and the West Kirby Ice Cream in the summer !

If I need a coffee on the go or to sit with friends for a drink... this is the best in Mold for me,as it serves the best coffee. I tend not to eat,as there are better food cafes.The staff are great,really friendly.The place could do with a bit of a spruce up,but I go for the quality of coffee. It's not the biggest space but they do have outside seating,which is good for dog owners and smokers. Works for me

Fab cafe, great music and friendly staff. A place to relax and enjoy the excellent coffee - cakes not essential but very very good!

I love this place and the staff! Both are amazing! I pop in on my own but also I now take the kids, my mother, friends and even the puppy! And what can i say? Well I can chill, relax and escape when I am here but mostly I am always greeted with a smile a hello and no rush! I have been coming here since it opened and it was the best thing I've done! Coffee great, teas great food no complaints and cakes don't tell the kids! Lol x

Excellent for quick pop in, comfy chairs enable one to sit and read the paper, catch up on gossip, and generally be at peace with the world. Coffee good too.

Had a cup of tea served with chipped cracked and dirty tea set no wonder you only have a 4 hygiene rating I would urge caution before using this establishment.

Stepping away from the hussle and bussle of the high street, I found RUBENS such a great escape, with a very relaxed atmosphere where the staff are willing to go that extra mile without taking extra out of your pocket. I was with my children and the prices were pretty fair for all three drinks and the seating was very comfortable with relaxing background music that isn't loud but just right that you can hear yourself think. I have no hesitation in recommending this establishment to anyone.

Great for meeting up for coffee or tea. In middle of town so easily accessible. More of coffee bar than eatery, small and informal. Friendly staff. Great coffee .

Called at Mold looking for a drink and sandwich on way home from short break. Entered Rubens after being turned away from Cbo at 3pm because they had stopped serving food!!!Flavoured latte, flat white and two toasted sandwiches were served quickly and by friendly staff. Doesn't set the world alight but very good cafe fare.

The Latte and the hot chocolate was lovely but where they used to make a freshtoastie now they have them in packets and mine was toasted one side and completely white the other side. NOt as nice as they used to be. Staff are very polite and the interior kept very clean. Seating area outside is clean too.

I've not been here before and was out today with the cycling club and this was the café stop. Staff were efficient and friendly, the coffee was very good and I had a rather nice piece of flapjack to refuel! The interior is comfortable and there is outdoor seating in a courtyard.Definitely one to remember and visit again.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the evening meal and breakfast was after reading poor reviews. There were 6 of us including two under 6s. One of our grandchildren celebrated his 4th birthday and the staff made a big fuss over him by presenting him with a cake and singing happy birthday. All 6 meals were of a good quality and breakfast had plenty of choice to please everyone. Well done the staff.

On our way home from a weekend in Wales and we stopped here on a recommendation. From the minute I walked in my brain was screaming no! It was not looking the cleanest of places this may be because it is so dated inside with tatty furniture and dirty carpets but as it did have a 5 star hygiene to the entrance door and with my dad being diabetic and neededing food we went with it. We ordered three roast dinners and they arrived homemade but the veg was waterlogged and tasteless and I was pretty much not willing to take a chance of eating in here so waited for the parents to finish and made a quick exit. Only reason I put poor and not terrible was because the lady and her daughter that was about 10 that served us was very polite.

Last minute dinner on Sat evening on the way back from a hike. I had lasagne which was really good and meaty which is great as often restaurants fill it with more veg than meat. Partner had pie and was also happy especially as it was proper shortcrust pastry. Service a little slow given not many tables. They were cleaning bar and other areas, which no doubt needs doing, but should prioritise cleaning plates etc. Overall we'd return of in area again.
