Gourmet products local specialties and wines Cardiff (Caerdydd)

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 café is very pleasant, it is located in the former Norwegian Seafarers' Church, when Cardiff was the world's largest coal exporter. Well installed in the warmth, there are cakes and small dishes, with a view of Cardiff Bay. The place is quiet and very welcoming. Inside this former church, there is also a stand on environmental protection in Wales - very interesting - as well as several craftsmen's stands where you can buy jewellery, postcards, souvenirs...

Charming vintage tea room with terrace overlooking the River Taff - very popular, so book ahead. Absolutely exquisite cakes and scones! You can come here for breakfast: eggs Benedict, classic Welsh breakfast or its vegetarian version... And if you're here for lunch, the menu includes a variety of sandwiches, bagels, salads and soups. 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 take 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 large sofas and wooden floors, which invite you to relax for a while. 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, granola... Excellent cuisine and attentive service. And all day long, you can indulge in one of the many sweet treats on offer.

Cakes are a great culinary tradition in Wales. Welsh Cakes are individual cakes made from flour, eggs, sugar, a few spices (a mixture of several or nutmeg)... And especially dry reasons, all sprinkled with sugar. They can be eaten hot or cold. Originally, they were not baked in the oven but in a frying pan. Freshly prepared, they are delicious! This boutique, while respecting traditional methods, adds a touch of fantasy to the image of white chocolate and lemon flavours.

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!
