The One Shoe in Swansea

Right let’s get to the point …we’ve all had enough of these over priced over rated breakfast in a frying pan ….carpenter shirt wearing barista wallet drainers ….this establishment is a blessing no wonder they been going 13 plus yrs….cheap delightful food …yay never fails ….and coffe bang on point …and served fast and efficiently ….do not miss this place

After visiting on a few occasions recently I felt I’ve had to leave a review on how great this place is, the panini‘s are full of fresh ingredients and always perfectly cooked and the cakes are incredible. always a friendly welcome it’s a must try

The most amazing brownies you will ever taste ! If you’ve not tried them you really need to ! Staff always friendly and the place always looks clean .

Great cafe with good coffee. I also like their sandwiches. The have amazing panini with fresh ingredients. I will definitely keep coming back.

No matter what you buy, it's always a bite of delight. Seasoning is absolutely on point, and the choice and ratios of ingredients . . . perfect. I'd have to recommend the Loco or Roma paninis, or the Boston Baguette. Small premises, huge presence, and some of the friendliest staff & best customer service I've ever come across. This Café somehow hit every nail on the head with one hammer swing. That was just the sandwich review. Picking up a brownie is a dangerous game, you won't be able to stop. And, as an addendum, the coffee is excellent.

They did it again. This time I had the Shotgun and an Iced Coffee. Both perfect. The panini especially so. Amazing collection of flavours and good quality ingredients. A real pleasure to put a smile on your face in these weird times

I ordered the new box of brownies for our staff. Needless to say they went down a storm. A fantastic treat for the end of half term. They are undoubtedly the best brownies I have ever tasted. The paninis are also fab. The shotgun is a firm favourite with our son. I always go for the kushti. Really tasty, filling and good value.

It really is very good. I particularly like the Loco, beef, Reuben and recently the Kushti, which is falafel and hummus. Also I just ate the best brownie I have had for years from there. Perfect for take out baguettes- there’s nowhere else in Swansea that I have found which is better

my First visit this week after the people in work raved about the quality in food and it’s fair to say they didn’t lie. I had the loco panini which tasted amazing and filled me up for the day . It’s been the only place I found that actually gives you your money’s worth in the area and the staff are so friendly. I do advise to grab one of there brownies as well literally one of the best treats I’ve ever tasted 😍

This place is a little hidden gem in Swansea. Perfect stop for lunch with their large panini menu with hot or cold drinks. Can’t forget their stunning brownies every week! Well worth an order. Always friendly with wonderful service. What more could you want?

Can’t recommend this place highly enough to everybody. The food is always delicious and the menu had a variety of different things for everybody. My family always like whatever we try here and even my little one is able to have food from here due to their ‘ shortie’ option. Very reasonably priced and staff are always very helpful and friendly. Fridays big brownies are one of a kind.

Love the brownies at One Shoe, especially when they do the special ones. They are a real treat. Friendly staff and great coffee too. Highly recommended 👍

decent lunchtime food and lush cakes . however prices keep rising above inflation rate and feel the veggie priced food subsidises the meat as same price despite obviously lower expense of ingredients !!

Great service in this cosy little coffee shop. Delicious coffee, and some amazing cakes. The panini sandwiches are also lovely - but what let them down a bit is the bacon sandwiches served at breakfast time. The bacon itself was lovely, but at this sort of price point the sandwich should be on good-quality freshly-baked bread - the one I had was on what looked and tasted like a regular 'sandwich' loaf from a supermarket. Nothing wrong with that in itself - if you're at a regular backstreet caff. But the One Shoe is a level up from there, and I just felt that this was one tiny thing that let them down a little. Won't stop me going back next time I'm in Swansea, though!

Went yesterday on an awful Sin hangover, Panini crispy and can for £5 is an unbelievably good deal it's was so good I went back later that day and had a second! 😂 Would recoment the Loco 👌

I go to this cafe quite often and can’t commend it enough. It is a little gem!!! The baguettes and paninis are wonderful, and so are the cakes and coffees.

Wonderful cafe serving a great selection of panini, sandwiches coffee and cakes. Special brownies every Friday with a trending social media following! Small cafe eat in or takeaway certainly one to visit.

Really great panini and cake especially the brownies yummy little place. Great choice of filling far more varied than the usual. Coffee really good too. Tiny little shop but worth a visit.

Fantastic coffee, always bring people visiting from over seas here as it has a fantastic atmosphere.

I live in Swansea and I am delighted to have found this place. It is tiny but the coffee and food are excellent.

Small but friendly great flood fab soups coffee fantastic the little cafe is a must from parsnip curry soup to a great sandwich love it a must go to cafe

Yummy paninis, yummy coffee, YUMMY BROWNIES Lovely outside seating area. They also have meal deals which includes crisps. Since leaving Swansea uni in 2009 I always make an effort to come here when I visit. Such a nice place!

I have only ever bought coffee from the One Shoe which is has always been superb. Though I must say that the toasted panini and snacks always look very tempting.

This is a lovely little cafe tucked on the corner, it's a tiny place so you may have a little wait but it's worth it. Great choice of panini's and baguettes along with good coffee and very tempting cakes.

Went back to our old uni house on the tatty king Edward road and found this great little place. Excellent coffee, great service and really good panini and bagels at a great price. Only 3-4 seats indoors but very nice.

This cafe is very easily missed but it is worth looking out for it. This is located at the bottom of the hill I used to live on and it's such a great place for food and coffee! The bacon rolls are tasty, cooked while you wait and given to you by people who really care about providing great customer service.

A lovely little find in swansea.

Great little coffee shop with friendly staff. The coffee served is amazing and the paninis are great too.

On the hunt for a Panini we came across this place. I highly recommend! Another great food venue in Swansea.

One Shoe Cafe is very small and easily missed. Me and my partner went on the hunt for this place a few months ago after someone told us that they do the greatest panini's and we've been going there ever since. I always pay this place a visit for a little treat. The staff there are always welcoming and pleasant and I love the decor of the place, exposed brick, subway tiles. I don't have a bad word to say about this place!! Just visit and see for yourself!

I couldn't believe it when I discovered The One Shoe had not been reviewed and I am slightly reluctant to spread the word and create a rush, but I’m a generous person and have decided to share my good fortune. The One Shoe is tiny, due to it being an old corner shop right on the end of King Edward Road – seats on the pavement under the awning where you can watch the world go by. I guess you would classify its menu as ‘take out’. They offer a wide variety freshly made and cooked to order paninis and delicious cakes. They serve coffee with flavour and real Cappuccino (not latte in a different cup) – someone there knows about coffee. It’s all so refreshing and different from the mass produced lunchtime fare to be found on the counters of the chain bakers or slightly suspect food from the local greasy spoon. To set the whole experience off and what really puts The One Shoe in a very special category is that it is all served by a staff who have the warmest of smiles at all times – how unusual is that?
