We went yesterday to The Old Pharmacy.We had booked a table and ordered crab sandwiches.Well we were not disappointed.The sandwiches were delicious and the tea was proper leaf tea.The young lady that owns the business was delightful after what must have been a difficult year for her business.We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and would definitely go again to support local enterprise.

Pleasant cafe with good cream tea and cakes; service friendly. Reasonably priced. Covid rules seem to be followed.

Visited on 12 th September for a much longed for crab sandwich. You know when ‘lockdown longing’ ups your imagination to unrealistic levels? Well, my expectations were high after waiting months to have a fresh crab sandwich and the Old Pharmacy certainly lived up to expectations. The crab is so fresh and tasty, the bread soft fluffy and tasty. The sandwich is so full that you just have to eat it messily. Partnered with a fresh pot of coffee and if I hadn’t been so full, I would have made room for one of the delicious cakes on display. Thank you, please continue doing exactly what you do so well.

Lovely little find with fabulous food and fantastic service. Unfortunately they turned away quite a few customers as there were no tables available (although this was owing to their very strict Covid measures). Would highly recommend the Afternoon Tea which is good value for money... Amazing White Chocolate and Pistachio cake.

Having checked before starting our coast walk that the Old Pharmacy was open until 4:30 it was disappointing to discover when we arrived just before 3:30 that they were no longer serving sandwiches, although still advertised outside. We could have had cake but because of the disappointment decided to go elsewhere.

This is a lovely traditional tea-room style cafe which is a certain style that some will love but others will feel is a little twee and dated. Mainly older people in the cafe when we where there. Food and drink was good but didn't seem amazingly special. Didn't like fact that we could see through to kitchen where lady was preparing things. Nothing wrong with this place as such but just not our style perhaps

Passing through Solva to St Davids. Saw the sign advertising the cafe,which sounded a great quirky name,then spotted the nice cups and decor as we drove past -have to go to the paying car park a little way further on. Car park attendant recommended the cafe for crab sandwiches. My husband had the crab I had a cheese scone. Both were delicious. I'm more of a coffee drinker -it was ok.- Husband had a basic leaf tea and said was really nice. The cakes looked inviting !

This is a cosy vintage tearoom offering good customer service and serving wholesome well filled sandwiches, scrumptious homemade cakes and a wide variety of teas as well as coffee and hot chocolate. A lovely spot to take a break on your trip. It's only around 200yds from the harbour car park in Solva. You'll receive a warm welcome and a warm fire on cold days.

Solva is a pretty place with a lovely quay. And up on the cliffs was one of the best walks we had whilst in Pembrokeshire (the sunshine helped). So it was good to find a nice, dog friendly tea shop in amongst the independent businesses here. Water for the dog. And home made dog treats. Plus delicious cakes. And a fantastic selection of teas.

Menu said homemade soup of the day and home made bread which was dumped on the table with a hasty retreat by waitress. I called her back to check and she said sorry I thought the menu had been changed. It was the cheapest shop bread one could buy. It was cold inside and I mentioned this to same member of staff and she said she was not allowed to close the door. I was asked if everything was ok when paying bill and my comment about bread was repeated. I felt that she didn’t really want to know and continued with the transaction. Wouldn’t go back.

Service was below acceptable. We shared a teaspooon, there were no serviettes until requested, and my teacup and saucer weren't as clean as they should have been - they seemed to have been taken straight from the sink, weren't dried and the water left in the saucer wasn't clean. I pointed out the stains in the cup and was told by the waitress that it wasn't possible to remove them all. (!) The tea was excellent, as was the cream tea. It could have been a much nicer experience if the waitress had a friendlier attitude.

What a lovely place! Tempted by the advert for crab sandwiches I was not disappointed- they were delicious as was my husbands ham sandwiches. The white chocolate and raspberry cake was delicious too. Loved the teapots and teacups and the whole ambience of the place. Some lovely little touches like the SOS box in the ladies . I also watched a dog being served with dog biscuits and water as if they were the most important customer in the world. It was so good yesterday that we came back today. Well done to the lovely people who clearly run this place with a lot of pride.

Visited here on a few occasions while in the area, however this last time was not so good I'm sorry to say. We'd booked the afternoon tea as a treat for my friends birthday. When the tiers came to the table we all tucked in but found the sandwiches lacked the pazazz that we were expecting. My egg mayo tasted very rubbery like it was a bought in filling and was quite honestly tasteless!! One of us had gluten free bread which was very hard and dry. The coleslaw was very vinegary and not the usual red cabbage variety so I didn't eat it. The crisps were good!! The scones were amazing! The choices of cake on the counter seemed to be limited and also not as good as in previous visits. It was a shame as we've so enjoyed it on 3 previous occasions. Hopefully if we return our faith will be restored!!

Myself and my business partner Sharon were out for the day adventuring around Pembrokeshire and we happened to pass the beautiful village of Solva. We'd heard the amazing things about the Old Pharmacy that we HAD to see for ourselves. Sharon wanted a scone with Jam and Cream! I told Sharon, this was a bad idea as she's already had TWO cookies at breakfast. I tried their wonderful Doughnuts which were superb! I would highly recommend!!

We visited The Old Pharmacy several times during our holiday in Pembrokeshire. We had excellent crab sandwiches and the most delicious welsh cakes and bara brith. We chatted to the delightful young women who served us and she explained that both were made by her grandmother - obviously a fantastic baker. We loved the decor and the china tea cups and the loose leaf tea was very good indeed. Being dog friendly was also a bonus for us. Overall, a lovely tearoom in a beautiful village.

Stopped in for tea and cakes. All served on lovely old china. Hubby had a cream tea and said the scone was locely. I had a cheese tea just because it was a bit different. It came with a huge warm cheese scone, lashings of butter, gorgeous blue Stilton or I could have had cheddar, chutney and a sliced apple. Tea was proper tea leaves and came with a strainer and egg timer to make sure it was properly brewed before we drank it. It was the best Earl Grey I've had. I don't want to move from here.

My wife thought her crab sandwich was the best she had ever had with lots and lots of crab. The crab is locally caught by a fisherman that we know. The scones were made by a local lady and were well risen without too much baking powder. It was £10 each which is maybe a bit much in Solva but it was well done and very enjoyable. The place is nice service was excellent. Not sure about the music

The reviews looked good and the cafe itself is lovely. Unfortunately, I think they were having a bad day as I see that someone else had issues on the same day. In general, the food was pleasant but not special. The pea soup was very nice but there was an extraordinarily small amount of it, especially for the price. The one slight redeeming factor was the Cream Earl Grey that was very nice.

I stumbled across The Old Pharmacy tea room last weekend on my return from a hard days work. Located in small but sunny Solva, Pembrokeshire. I was welcomed by a warm reception from the friendly staff, just what was required after a long day in the office. I couldn't help but realise that this was the lovely atmosphere that is graced daily from the staff here in TOP. Next came the quaint and cosy furniture that blessed the adorable little cafe which was most pleasant - additional to this was the beaming sunlight that flooded the windows lighting up the rooms. Tea selection was to die for, there's just so much choice. And it's finally nice to come across an establishment that offers a wide variety of sandwiches, cakes and biscuits that are FRESH and HOME MADE! Jackpot. Will be back.

Stopped in Solva on Friday 25th May to stretch our legs and came upon this little Gem, lovely old Fashioned Tea Room. Great welcome upon entering, lovely fresh sandwiches and a great pot of tea at very reasonable prices. Could have stayed all day.

We stumbled upon this place on a sunny morning in May, the cutest little place! The food was amazing and the girl who owned it was lovely and really helpful in making sure we knew the best places to go. Would thoroughly recommend for a light bite, tea and cake. Can’t speak highly enough of this place!

Excellent friendly service in this charming tea room. Very clean including toilet facilities! Cheese scone served warm was fine but more cheese in the bread mix would make it even better.

I like it here, cream tea was good. I liked that i could look at and smell all the herbal teas before buying. Staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit

The old pharmacy has an amazing atmosphere and delicious coffee. However if you’re into speciality teas they have a dedicated menu with loads to choose from. After breakfast we got sandwhiches to take away so that was lunch covered too. Highly recommend!!

We had the crab sandwiches and tea. The sandwiches were good, but not great. The tea is served in proper pots , the staff is friendly and the place has a nice feel to it. Good for a stop but not memorable enough for us to go back.

Llevábamos andando de Newgale y ya decidimos ir a este café porque de las recomendaciones anteriores. Gran variedad de tés y la tarta de zanahoria era excelente - la mesa de juegos de vajilla mezclado parecía atractivo y el personal es acogedor y agradable. Justo lo que queríamos!

Top calidad suelto y tartas tés encantadores en el menú excelente. Fue muy agradable charlar con un montón de consejos de turismo local con la propietaria y su asistente encantador joven chica. Mi esposa muy amables con la vajilla tradicional precioso y cómo está muy limpio por todas partes (incluyendo el loos - aparentemente muy importante! ). Altamente recomendado.

Stopped off to have a full English Breakfast. Absolutely delicious. Great value for money. Service was so friendly and prompt. And you couldn't get better views from the windows of the beach. The restaurant was extremely clean, and tables were cleared as soon as people left. I can't recommend this restaurant/cafe enough. Pop in for a cup of tea, natter, and enjoy the views or have a meal. Either way, you will leave with a warm tummy and a smile on your face 👍👍

Nearly gave this place a miss due to previous reviews, but after speaking to a local, I was advised to give it a try. My wife, our two dogs and myself called in on the off chance mid-September 2024 for an evening meal. The Lobster Pot has been under new management since Easter. The owners are still finding out what is wanted by both locals and, at this time of year, the decreasing tourist sector. It is a typical pub grub menu, but as we were rather late eating, we were informed that a few items were sold out, so be prepared to adapt if your favourite dish is not available. I am not a vegetarian, but was recommended the vegetarian lasagne. It was delicious and served piping hot. Limited puddings but take what is on offer. Both the apple crumble and chocolate brownie were great. A choice of bottled cider, an IPA, which ran out as I was going for a second pint, so settled for a Felin Foel Double Dragon to round the night off. Lovely atmosphere and engaging in conversation with the owners, staff, locals and also a guest staying there made it a great memorable experience! Will definitely return next September to The Lobster Pot as we continue our trek along the coastal footpath. We wish everyone at this pub every success for the future!

The Inn is very well located on The Pembrokeshire coastal path. We were there during our walking holiday for 3 nights. The rooms are big enough and have a spacious bathroom. It’s great to have a drink outside on the terrace after a good walk. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Dinner and breakfast are great

Disappointed. Greasy fish and chips served in a takeaway box to eat in. Chips needed slightly more cooking. Restaurant had the atmosphere of a waiting room. Food was overpriced for what we would pay in east sussex.
