Ye Olde Worlde Cafe in Pembrokeshire

The BEST scones we've ever had. It's been a couple years now but we still think about it.

Good quality and value overall. Limited menu but what's on offer is generally good and nicely presented with a side salad. Agree with comments by others about tortilla chips, not my favourite either, a few crisps would be nicer. Coffee and cake all ok. Good deal for parking, they don't mind you parking all day provided you have lunch or tea. This is very welcome as all the alternative parking on the estate is National Trust so expensive if you are not a member. They do seem to have a problem with wasps in the garden this year which they need to look into.

A beautiful little cafe, with really welcoming staff. Cream tea was delightful, and real tea!!!!!! Will definately come again.

The garden is full of angry wasps. We were told by the waiter to go inside with our dog to escape. We were then told by another waitress once we had sat down and paid for our meal that we can come inside but our dog could not! Not at all friendly or helpful. We left taking our food with us. I will not return here again.

This place is a real gem. The cream teas and service are super. However, they really need to take care of their wasp problem and get a professional in to take care of the issue!

To sit outside you share you food and drinks with the wasp they do nothing to control them

So happy to find this little gem still open, we first visited this tea room 38 years ago on our honeymoon! We enjoyed fresh scones, jam and clotted cream with a pot of decaf tea for me and a decaf coffee for hubby and all reasonably priced. The wasps were a nuisance outside so we chose to eat in, it's a traditional house so quite small with limited space but very quaint.

Overpriced food, £19.20 for two ham and cheese "paninis" which were by no means filling. Wasps swarmed around you and your food. You get fairy cakes for £2.50 even though you orderd a proper slice of lemon drizzle. Would not reccomend anything other than coffee. Tea is extortionate

Amazing Brie and Cranberry Panini !!

Excellent and my group of German Walkers thoroughly enjoyed their cream 🍵

One of those places that we love to go.

Tea leaves and strainer - no tea bags here! Extra pot of hot water. Lovely iced cake. An enjoyable visit at the end of a long walk.

Great outdoor areas and excellent cream tea

We have been visiting this place for years because we get a proper cup of tea in a big pot made with loose leaf tea and excellent quality cake. I thought the prices were quite reasonable - we both got 3/4 cups each from £2.50 per person. I would suggest to the owners to put a card in the window saying when they are open. We turned up at 10:30 on a Thursday morning and it was closed and found no such information. Friendly staff.

A bit expensive for what you get, but the sandwich was good. Most seating is outdoors, so probably best to stop in on a dry day

Nice location and pleasant garden for refreshments with friendly staff but the prices for the quality of food were nothing less than a complete rip off taking advantage of the captive audience visiting the nearby lily ponds and beaches. A ‘single’ poached egg on toast cost about £4.70 and consisted of a single not so runny poached egg on a buttered slice of toast with no garnish. A ‘double’ was 2 slices of toast and 2 poached eggs for an amazing £9.00 - I suspect this cost less than £1 to make. Similar prices for other items too. Best advice - take a picnic and sit at the picnic tables near the cafe park for the lily ponds. This cafe is ‘taking the mick’.

Nothing justifies £9 for a sandwich.

Great outdoor space, friendly staff. The food (we had sandwiches) is fine but not special.

Great cakes and friendly staff with plenty of outdoor seating

Prices gone up 30% in two year. Scone with jam and cream gone up from £3.50 to £5

Great place for a lunch after visiting Stackpole and the coastal path, proper ham on the sandwich and loads of brie on the Panini, delicious homemade cakes. Can highly recommend.

The best scone I have ever eaten.

Desperate for some lunch after getting lost with two young children in the back of the car with travel sickness, we were so happy to find the tea rooms. However there were no child options on the menu and no offer to perhaps offer half a sandwich as is usual on menus for kids. Ended up paying 39 pounds for 4 sandwiches and a pot of tea! Daylight robbery! And the sandwiches were so unimpressive, made with cheap margarine, normal plain bread and the plainest salad ever! Not even a spoonful of coleslaw to jazz it up and make it a worthy £7.95 sandwich! Should have gone to the pub next door

Food was good especially convenient as its next door to the long woodland walks which require refreshments afterwards. Plenty of space to sit outside on a nice day. However very expensive.

4 paninis, 1 sandwich, a jam scone and 6 hot drinks for £70.00…?? Well, we thought, they’d better be good. After about 20 mins the hot drinks finally arrived and about another 15 minutes later when we’d finished our drinks, out came the food, finally. The bread was a bit stale, the paninis were cooked to tooth-breaking point, the scone was a bit dry, the salad totally uninspiring and the portions were miserly. We’ll bring a picnic next time.

A very enjoyable, old fashioned traditional cafe with loose leaf tea in a teapot. Lots of little birds that you can handfeed at the table. Friendly helpful staff and good value food and cakes. it's definitely an experience at this cafe and we had lots of fun there. Don't forget to use the tea strainer and the teapot we had, let's just say it was lively on the pour, missing the cup completely and ending up on the table until we got the hang of it. A little bit Alice In Wonderland Mad hatter style! Good parking. We sat outside and the wild wind meant we had to keep a good grip on your things! Never had so many laughts at a cafe in my life. it was brilliant and I can thoroughly recommend it.

A magical place to have a cream tea! Exacly what was needed on my holiday. Will come back soon !

After a very long walk last Tuesday around the lily ponds we drove here and parked in their car park. We went into the cafe as it was beginning to rain and there appeared to be no seating area. The young woman at the counter took us over to a little shed where there were tables and chairs and a menu and told us to return to the counter to order our food. We did so. The first girl had disappeared and a second woman quite curtly told us they were not serving food. No apology, no offer of tea. I don’t know what time they closed, this was 3.45pm. We left and went to go into the pub next door but there was nowhere to park as the cafe car park next door was for cafe patrons only. Maybe the cafe does not need the business (unbelievable in these supposedly dire times for business’s). We were hungry and thirsty and would have spent over £25 with them. We’d had a fabulous walk but such a shame there was no inviting tea room open. It then took us over an hour of driving round to find somewhere to eat. We ended up at Pembroke Dock in a a nice pub.

Loved the food here, very clean and was a beautiful area, portions where perfect and tasty.

Really lovely setting for a cafe. They stop serving food in the afternoon (caught us out!) but cakes available all day.

Un locale delizioso immerso nella campagna. Ottimo tè con scones, marmellata e clotted cream. Molto buono anche il toasted teacake.

Went there for lunch - the food was good and the outside was dog friendly.

Visit here every time we come to Pembrokeshire- it's the law! Fantastic cakes, gigantic teapots and extra hot water too. Lovely gardens and right next to the beautiful lilyponds to walk off the calories 😀

Nice pot of tea and carrot cake Butifull

After an afternoon on Broad Haven beach this little tea room was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Delicious cakes (the Bara-brith was particularly good), beautiful location and friendly sparrows as entertainment. The army was firing on the range nearby which might put some people off but actually made it good fun! A proper British tearoom.

Spotted this place when driving back from St Govan’s Chapel and luckily found a place to park, so popped in for lunch. Our food was served fairly quickly by a very friendly lady despite it being very busy. The food was very enjoyable and we will definitely be returning.

Difficult review because the setting is outstanding yet it was let down by the majority of tables being cluttered and dirty. Our server said she would come back to our table to clear and clean it but she didn't, hygiene should be more important now than ever but this aspect of the cafe was poor. Our coffee was at best ok, the temperature was too cool and it lacked flavour. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, they were not understaffed, we will go back and will then alter this review if it's any better. All that being said it was very busy, no real competition, and the staff were pleasant.

Excellent home made goats cheese quiche and salad. Tea with leaves and a tea strainer. Speedy friendly service. Good value.

Tea and cake was a great choice after a walk - the cakes were home made and delicious and very accommodating of our large party. Will return!

Excellent coffee. Nicely served in proper cups. Sandwiches OK but a bit too much butter or spread for my liking. Not necessary really with fillings like coronation chicken and tuna mayo. Sliced bread could be fresher. Nice salad garnish but crisps would go better than tortilla chips. Lovely outdoor seating in the sunny front garden but the cafes sign badly needs replacing or repainting.

Had not been in over a decade. It has changed a bit. Nice tea and cakes. Lovely sponge cake. Sandwiches are ok, but lacking in generosity with the filling.

This is a real gem, in a beautiful location, with great service and lovely tea and cakes. Perfect after a coastal walk.

Really pleasant with great sandwiches. Staff very friendly and warming. Can’t wait to go back.

We ordered inside. There didn’t seem to be much on offer cake wise, so we opted for just drinks. The cappuccino was bland and the worst tasting coffee of the entire holiday. Serving in paper cups probably doesn’t help. Luckily we didn’t want sugar as none was offered.

This tea room is understandingly popular. It is located in Bosherston on the road to St Govan's chapel and Broadhaven South, near the Lily Ponds. Their standards have been changed to meet the Covid rules. Gone are the cups and saucers, tea pots with proper tea and strainers, replaced by paper cups and teabags. Sad but necessary; we hope that this can be reversed soon. Keep up the good work - well worth a visit.

It's hard to see what's not to love. Yes, it's a simple menu but everything is done really well and the service is welcoming and friendly.

Wonderful, traditional cafe. Good range of good and drink, quickly served. Very welcome after walk around lily ponds, beach and headlands.

Visited last Friday for tea. Tea in paper cups I expected a pot and China cups. Scones rather solid, jam poor quality in plastic single portion container, Cornish clotted cream in single portion container. Carrot cake slightly better. The service was poor, some items being tipped off a tray onto the table. They cannot be held responsible for the wasps but some effort to provide traps may have negated the need to consume the tea at a fast walk around the table. Will not be back.

Four of us came for cream tea and left very disappointed. Tea was served in cardboard cups with the tea bag left in.. I ended up pouring the tea away, it was horrible. the scone was OK, but the jam was in a plastic pot...

Bit disappointed, great location but lots and lots of plastic and waste with my cream tea (paper cup with plastic lid, paper plate, plastic knife, plastic jam, cream and UHT milk in little plastic cartons) Not sure if its due to covid or shortage of dish washing staff but it felt cheap compared to the overall cost. Staff were friendly though and setting lovely.

I'm bemused by the glowing reviews. The menu is very basic and the food equally so. Bosherston and the surrounding area is understandably very popular and Ye Olde Worlde Cafe seems to be taking advantage of its situation.

Have been coming here more times than I can remember over the years, following a walk round Bosherston and down to Broad Haven. Always friendly and food comes quickly.

Have been coming here foryears and was disappointed with the quality of the cakes which used to be really good last week. My favourite the iced sponge slice had hard crumbly icing with no cherry on top and the sponge was not light and fluffy...

We have been coming to Ye Olde Worlde Cafe for more than 50 years. It was always a looked-forward to treat at the end of the afternoon, no matter where in Pembrokeshire we had been. The magnificent afternoon tea (scone, Victoria sponge and iced sponge...

Very friendly staff, lovely food and well priced well worth a visit after a lovely walk

We have been many times over the years to this cafe. It used to be lovely old fashioned teapots and china. Its now all plastic pots and paper cups with unfriendly staff. Nothing was being recycled and even the milk was in those awful little...

Saw a review for this cafe in the Wild guide, stating it was a great place for a wide range of loose leaf tea and homemade cake so we went out of our way to seek this place out. What a disappointment! There was one...

Really cute tearoom in a beautiful area a stones throw away from St govans Chapel. Quite expensive to be honest but the carrot cake was delicious as we're the scones.

Pleasant, friendly, country cafe just a short walk from the Bosherton Estate and a few minutes drive from the beaches.

Great place for lunch when visiting Bosherston lily ponds. Wide choice of food served in the garden. Good value for money

fantastic home made cake, nice coffee and very relaxing atmosphere, and good baby changing facility 👍

Is there a better Cheese on Toast than here 🤔. Don't think so.

We’d visited a few years ago when the options were pretty extensive but the aftermath of Covid seemed to have had an impact with a restricted range but still a good stopping place on a circular walk with excellent Pembrokeshire ices

Lovely, calm, simple food, private car park for customers. No booking was required. Just rock up grab a free table and relax.

Sitting at a table on the lawn in the afternoon sun with a pot of tea and a sandwich or a delicious slice of cake is a very pleasant experience. Sadly they have had to make temporary changes to serve beverages in disposable cups and...

Lovely outdoor eating area. Handy when visiting the lily ponds and Broad Haven beach. Sandwiches, salad, ice creams, cakes. Hot and cold drinks

Beautiful little find, gorgeous spot, friendly welcoming staff, food was lovely :D

Sizeable slice of decadent carrot cake. The swift arrival of a rambunctious smelling recycling lorrie interrupted ones early afternoon tea with clarance and co. Clearance and I had the most spiffing experience despite the dog eating mud. Ps upon the arrival Juan the driver we departed with many views from the glancing crowd

Hands down the best scones I've ever tasted. And I put the jam on first, then the cream.

Visited today for a drink. Not very helpful staff at all, very expensive for 2 coffees in paper cups £5.40!! Staff were just loud, laughing and messing about, no customer care at all. Would definitely not be returning.

Basic menu but lovely setting and reasonable prices. There's a free carpark right next to the tearoom as well. I had the scone with Jan and clotted cream and it was lovely.

Very helpfully and friendly good service and food

Best place in Pembrokeshire to get tea and cake, lovely food and great staff.

Lovely cafe, great selection of food. Beautiful location

After a long walk from Stackpole Quay, we were treated to quite possibly the best coronation chicken sandwich I’ve ever tasted. It was clearly home-made, with large chunks of chicken, and a proper curry flavour. This was followed by some beautifully buttery Welsh cakes with...

Also known as Ye Olde World Cafe. After a long walk along the coast path, called in hear for tea/coffee and paninis. Lovely staff and excellent food and service. Thank you.

Just up the road from the Lily Ponds NT car park is this family run cafe. Nice selection of homemade cakes, including Welsh cakes. Order inside and the food/drinks are delivered to your table outside. They are using disposable plates and cups, I guess this...

The Covid restrictions have slightly marred the experience, so you don't currently get leaf tea in a pot with a strainer, but you still get lovely service, old-fashioned food and those great slices of iced cake with a bit of cherry on. So much in...

Have visited many times in the past and loved the china tea pots and the all-round experience. Thanks to the virus all drinks are now sold in paper cups and food is served on disposable plates, etc so not quite like our fond memories of...

Was able to sit in the beautiful gardens so social distancing was good. Food was freshly prepared. Would recommend it after a walk. Car parking relatively cheap.

Been here quite a lot over the years. Sadly this years experience was not great. The person who took our order was very friendly and polite but what a disappointment when the food arrived. We ordered "a pot of tea" but got horrid tea in...

Great find just up from the NT car park in Bosherston. The food was fanstatic and it was really nice sitting in the garden enjoying the sun. The staff were helpful and friendly. We were doing the red NT walking route around the NT Stackpoke estate, such a lovely walk, I would highly recommend this walk. We stopped here for lunch and really pleased we did. Basic menu but enough options to keep the family happy. We also had cakes which were really nice.

Having visited this cafe regularly over the years, always loving their afternoon tea - loose tea, milk in a jug, sugar bowl, served with fresh warm scones, a bowl with lovely strawberry jam and clotted cream, always has been excellent service and a treat to...

Lovely place on a sunny day but too many wasps in the garden unfortunately. We appreciate the cafe has Covid restrictions but proper milk rather than UHT for drinks, especially for the price, would have been a bonus. Otherwise, definitely a great stop off before...

Perfect for a cream tea after a day on the beach.

Bosherston tea rooms have been a family favourite for years. Lovely place to sit out and really comes into its own with current social distancing needs. The organisation of the cleaning and service is great and I felt very safe. There are great gluten free...

we have been coming here for years and are impressed with the new set up. Just as yummy but disposable tableware and well organised sanitation. Would suggest a menu posted outside to minimise trips inside and make it clear you have gluten free bread as...

We used to live in pembrokeshire, almost 19 years ago, and we used to go to this place as a treat when the sun was shinning. We always had a cream tea and it was yummy. We are still talking about this place, even today. So glad to see it's still there. When we visit pembrokeshire again, we will certainly visit again. Please try it, you wont be disappointed I

Been going here regularly when down that way. Lovely tea room beautiful cakes. Nice setting and a great place to stop after a lot Ng walk around the Lilly Ponds on a sunny day.

Great tea served in leaf form with strainer plus awesome cheese on toast served in a lovely setting. And far too cheap!

We visited as a result of a recommendation by a colleague of my wife. Read reviews saying how good the panini’s were so was set on finding out for myself. The exterior of the tea rooms looked so quaint and was so pleased to see...

We love to visit this little tea room it is starting to grow its garden area. Never fail to get a lovely lunch and the food is fresh and tasty and all homemade the cakes are so scrummy an good they cater for gluten free

We have been coming here for years it was so disappointing this time, we had tea and scones with jam, the scones were the worst we have experienced, they just fell to pieces when trying to cut in half, the cream was solid, jam ok,...

Lovely place for a panini and panad

What a lovely lunch in the Olde Worlde Cafe. The best paninis ever, the bread must have been from a local Baker rather than a supermarket as it was fresh and crispy and very tasty. A few wasps determined to join us outside but that...

Ordered tea for two, two scones, 2 x bottles of pop & 2 x twister lollies which came to over £16. Felt this was a little on the expensive side as we had previously had 2 great sandwiches (they came with a light salad &...

When you go here it’s like stepping back in time, very quaint. Do a good selection of toasties and quiche etc, all at reasonable prices. Cappuccino was lovely. Great setting when the weather is good. A good place to rest after a long walk. Staff...

We have had lunch here several times over this summer and can’t fault it. They serve the nicest panini we’ve ever had. I don’t understand the poor reviews given, I would recommend this cafe to anyone.

Arrived to tour the lily ponds at about 2pm decided to have lunch first. Good value and service not to busy so managed to sit at a table under a shady tree. Made visited to the ponds last visited 45 years ago a pleasant trip...

Excellent sandwiches, paninis, quiche and cake. Be aware that it's cash only.
