Gourmet products local specialties and wines Cardiff

A friendly atmosphere in this beautiful two-storey Victorian market hall, built in 1891. Souvenir stores, numerous fruit and vegetable stalls, some run by the same families for generations, Welsh cheeses, pies... It's a pleasant place to wander around in search of a specific item or simply for inspiration. Upstairs, a café serves comforting full breakfasts at unbeatable prices. Here, you can eat or simply have a drink, while admiring the hustle and bustle of the stalls on the first floor.

South of Roath Park, this grocery store is distinguished by its offer of both artisanal and high quality. Local products, delicatessen, cheeses, vegan and gluten-free cakes... (many organic products) and every Thursday baskets of fresh fruit and vegetables to take away, called "veg boxes". A real success! The attentive and cheerful staff is the added argument. Possibility of brunch on site. In the morning, there are healthy and gourmet breakfast solutions, including a very good chocolate oatmeal porridge with oat milk.

This delightful café is located in the former Norwegian Seamen's Church, built when Cardiff was the world's largest coal exporter. Here, you'll find cakes and small dishes, with a view over Cardiff Bay. The place is calm and welcoming. The former church also houses an interesting stand on environmental protection in Wales, as well as several craft stalls selling jewelry, postcards and souvenirs...

All accompanied by a choice of desserts. And if you've come for a snack,afternoon tea awaits you every day of the week.

A full-length bistro, from grocery to bar, stretching the good taste of past charms. Treat yourself to a tasty breakfast (sweet or savory), including excellent eggs Benedict... Or a comforting break during the day with banoffee donuts (salted caramel, banana, chocolate) and whipped cream, or the more gourmet Pudding & Tea Time (mini sandwiches, pastries...). Opened in 2012, Bill's is a highly successful chain, with a second location now open in Cardiff Bay.

In the heart of Castle Arcade, you'll soon feel right at home in this trendy café, with its wooden floors and large sofas inviting you to relax. You can spend a long time here, alone or with friends, sipping a coffee or a hot chocolate. Until midday, you can also enjoy breakfast with excellent toast or scrambled eggs with salmon. The food is excellent and the service attentive. And all day long, you can indulge in one of the many sweet treats on offer.

Cakes are a great culinary tradition in Wales. Welshcakes are small, individual cakes made with flour, eggs, a few spices (a mixture of several or nutmeg)... and, above all, dried grapes, sprinkled with sugar. They can be eaten hot or cold. In fact, they were originally baked in a frying pan, not in the oven. Freshly prepared, they're delicious! While respecting traditional methods, this boutique adds a touch of fantasy to the white chocolate and lemon flavors.

A charming neighbourhood grocery store specializing in quality Welsh products, such as the delicious award-winning artisanal cheese from Anglesey. The products are local and of good quality. For those who want, it is also possible to sit down around a selection of tapas, which are generally very popular. Or even dishes such as a slice of bread with avocados crushed with salmon. You can also simply enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, while working quietly on your computer. In summer, the outdoor tables are very nice!
