Cafe Minuet

Address: 40-42 Castle Street
PostCode: CF10 1BW
Phone: 029 2034 1794

   An excellent gem of a cafe that has real ambience within Castle Arcade. Queues to be expected at lunchtime but worth it. Cafe with a musical theme that serves excellent food, small so expect competition for a place. The food is cooked to a classical music accompaniment !
The best reviewed restaurant in Cardiff.

Hours 10am-5pm Mon-Sat

Coffee shop that does not empty your pockets in a prime location opposite Cardiff Castle This café does really good sandwiches and better still the panini’s. Portions are always generous and the tomato soup is a very good seller.

Open on Sundays, which is a bonus if you are looking for breakfast after a stag or hen party. A phone call will result in delivery if it is difficult to get away from the office.

Pipis Greek Cafe and Restaurant

District: Cardiff Central
Address: 31-32 Caroline Street

Pipi’s has relocated from Church street to larger premises in Caroline street. It has a very good reputation for quality food complimented by friendly service. The big advantage of this café is that it has an all day service.

If you fancy a freshly baked croissant with your early morning coffee or perhaps a choice of patisseries it is here that you need to visit.
