Thunder Road Cafe in Bridgend

Not been back since COVID. Ordered our breakfast.Staff friendly.Asked if with the traditional breakfast could have extra rasher of bacon instead of. black pudding.Not able to!!,.offered alternatives. Pancakes were awful. Toasted tea cake burnt. Very disappointed.

Visited here whilst on holiday with family as been a few times . Ordered chicken curry from the menu . Its hard to say what it actually was !! There was a plate of chips & rice along with chicken covered jn a thick paste !! The taste was disgusting. The staff didn't come out if the kitchen to check if all was OK as they possibly heard what was being said .if this was supposed to be home made guess someone forgot to finish making it .!! Member if staff came to order food & was told nit to have the curry by kitchen staff !! . Wonder why . The sold 3 chicken curry meals to us & all we're inedible!. Will never go back which is a shame as we did love it before this visit.. be warned order with caution .

Tried upstairs at thunder road this morning for breakfast, walking through the bikes to get to the cafe is really nice, but the cafe is a bland white sterile box. Nothing like I expected. The food was average, chips greasy as if the chip fryer not hot enough, cheap low quality sausages and bacon was like a gammon steak really thick. Eggs were snobby on top and not cooked properly. It’s ok and perhaps I am fussy, please visit and make your own mind up. Post your own review so we can compare.

I arranged to meet up with some former work colleagues at the Thunder Road cafe in Bridgend. The cafe is upstairs in the Thunder Road motorbike dealership. The cafe itself is very light and airy, giving it a feeling of being bigger than it actually is. The teas and coffees are all very reasonable and tasty, whilst the food is delicious. The staff were very friendly and extremely customer focussed, bringing out our orders quickly and without any fuss. If I had one quibble, it would be that the signposting to the cafe could be a bit better, but that could also have been my fault, because I’m not the best at finding places anyway! Overall, I really enjoyed the hour or two I spent at this cafe, and will be back, especially since it’s almost opposite the Honda car dealership and I have a Honda Civic, which will be going in for a service shortly! Thunder Road cafe is a really good place for a cuppa and a bit to eat.

What a lovely place but what they don't tell you is that the cafe is situated above a Suzuki motorcycle showroom. There is free parking outside, off road and to get to the cafe one has to walk through the showroom to get to the cafe which is upstairs.(there's also a lift). The staff are very friendly and the food was plentiful (we couldn't finish in one sitting so we both took half our sandwich away with us. Nice to see they're doing their best to make themselves covid free. Really pleasant surroundings. There's lovely, isn't it!

Called in just after lockdown. Ordered two hot dogs. They where absolutely diabolical it seemed the bread was from the pre lockdown freezer? It could not be cut we had to pull it apart and chew for ages. The sausage skin was tough and unedable. Best of all they charged £3.50 each + .50 p for onions Four pounds each for that offering was not on. Shan't be going back.

Visit the cafe today (7th aug) tables are social distanced and constantly being cleaned, utensils are wrapped and brought out with food Staff wearing masks and food as brilliant as ever Jude

I always have a veggie brekkie which is lovely and I can vouch for the hot choc too, it's perfick!! Costa & Starbucks need to take some tips from you. The only thing I would say is there's always something wrong with our order, missing bread & butter today, it's usually trivia. As soon as you tell a staff member they happily rectify this so they still deserve 5 dots/stars. Honestly love the whole museum thing going on there, the variety of food, all the windows makes it lovely & bright. Always hot & tasty, your veggies sausages are amazing.

Good prices for really good breakfast. Staff are friendly and it's nice and clean, can't you wrong if you want a full english.

First visit at Thunder road cafe and would definitely go again! The breakfast was spot on! I’m a self confessed “fussy” eater and I could not fault it at all. They were more than happy to swap fried for poached eggs. There was a good atmosphere there. The staff were friendly, polite and nothing seemed too much bother. The whole place was clean and hygienic. The breakfast was cooked quickly and was a good price/value for money. There was a lot of different options such as eggs Benedict and welshing your breakfast with cockles/lava bread. Easy to park outside. The only downside is my husband spent the breakfast weighing up the idea of purchasing one of the bikes he’d eyed up and we had to do a lap of thunder road showroom as we left! 😂

Went for brunch yesterday to have mould on my toast, chips were like rubber, egg not cooked properly I did complain and asked for a refund, I have spent the last 18hr vomiting it’s not the same as it used to be, even the girl on the till went to the freezer took out some food in bare hands took it to the cook, straight back to the tills not washing her hands once especially after handing money! There’s a lot of poor hygiene happening at thunder road so be careful when you’re eating there I myself would never set foot in there again,

Compelled to write a positive review about this place after several visits which all have been first class. What’s good?; cleanliness, service, value, portions, offering and most of all, quality. Don’t feel you need to be a biker to go here, lots of the regulars are non biking diners.

Did not understand that this was above a bike dealership, but honestly one of the best breakfasts I've had. Reasonably priced and service was super quick and really good.

Popped in on lunchtime today between Christmas and New Year. Hidden up a spiral staircase from the motor bike show room, two chicken curries with chips and rice soon appeared along with a kids meal. Generous portions and very tasty it was too, all served by a lovely friendly lady who made us most welcome. Will definitely return to try some of the food from the specials board, which sadly due to the time of year wasn't on today.

Have been using Thunderoad for breakfast for a long time now. Excellent choice on the menu and food is served hot and tasty. Very good friendly service

Took a little bit of finding - it's above the Honda motorbike garage on Tremains road. Great find - not expensive at all, great portions, food good, service good.

Hot, tasty food, at reasonable prices. A very clean cafe. The portions are very generous. I had the salad which was excellent. A hidden gem.

Not so easy to find but worth it. Very clean, excellent service. Prices and food very good . Staff excellent and friendly especially Maria and Miss Healy

A great selection of breakfasts and light lunches at good prices. Friendly welcome in a large airy room. We will definitely return.

Great breakfast, lovely coffee. Views of Bridgend from the cafe are awesome. Service can be slow at times. Sausages are not to my taste, they need to change them :-) but thats my only complaint.

Brilliant Cafe above Thunder road on Tremains Rd Bridgend. Many go there just for the food and a chat... Staff are great, food is reasonable and available all day. Can't go wrong

There’s no better place for a breakfast or cafe in Bridgend! Great value for money and the staff are really friendly!

I was recommended this cafe by a friend and it didn't disappoint. We had a gold wing breakfast which was massive and great value for money. Fast service and a great stop off when you have a busy day ahead of you.

We'd heard good things about the food here so decided to give it a try. The food is cooked to order so is fresh.

Only been here twice but never been disappointed, the staff here are great and go over and above. Plus I leave feeling full and set up for my day ahead.

Only spotted this place on trip advisor this morning, didnt even know it existed.... apparently its been there years and im annoyed no-one told me about it before! Seems my friends wanted to keep it secret and i can understand why...! Beautiful home made chicken curry, rice and proper chips, mum had the special, home made corned beef pie chips and gravy.... unfortunately not enough room left for any of their home baked cakes and scones... this place is a hidden gem.... will definitely be back soon to try their breakfast....

Brilliant cafe above Thunder Road bikes. Good value, very very clean and all freshly cooked. Great place.

This cafe is exactly as you would expect it to be, it's a bikers' cafe, but the food is very good, excellent value and great service. It is a little congested as there are lots of bikers with leathers, helmets etc, but you should expect this if you go into a cafe above a motorbike showroom! It's very clean and when we are in the area and need a good coffee or breakfast we pay a visit.

The cooked breakfast at Thunder Road are one of the best in Bridgend!! The food is top quality, and the staff are fab! Made my breakfast to my personal choice without any hassle at all! cant wait to go again!

love it here, good breakfast, great lunches, nice staff, exactly what you want from a place like this!! cracking"

Been here lots of times and never had a bad meal. Always fresh. Hand cooked chips. Very clean. Always hot. Will return soon. Keep it up.

Amazing brecky good value for money very clean good standard of hygine friendly staff really good nosh

You wouldn't expect much at a first glance in this cafe, but the breakfast was outstanding!! The prices were very reasonable with huge portions. I can't wait to go back and visit to try out their lunch menu! I highly recommend this cafe for a hearty full english breakfast!

This is by far the very best breakfast in Bridgend. The staff are so friendly and the service is exceptional. I look forward to joining them for lunch and no doubt it will live up to expectations. Please give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

What a lovely place to have a meal, chips are made fresh from potatoes not frozen, we have eaten here a few times and food is always perfect.
