Gathering Ground

Very nice place for a hot drink and a cake after a walk in Roath park. The café was very warm and all of the facilities were well kept. The staff were very nice and extremely attentive. However, the prices are fairly steep at £2.65 for a small americano.

Great food, lovely decor and atmosphere. But somebody fix that bloody door that keeps blowing open and that people can’t shut properly. Creates an awful draft (especially with our 4 month baby). Also never know a Cafe to NOT serve pastries? Only cakes? Breakfast coffee and croissant would be an essential menu item surly?

Wonderfully friendly and caring staff, loved the quirky decor and really enjoyed the low alcohol craft beer. Food looked amazing. Fab atmosphere. I enjoyed taking my jewellery to their first pop up gift fair and the String Quartet added to the festive feel of the evening. Will definitely visit again 😀

Cute little coffee shop close to Roath Park. Good cappuccino as well. The atmosphere is super cozy with multiple couches to sit on. The shop is also dog friendly which is great for any pet owners. Good place for a quick coffee after a walk in the park

The cafe is lovely, staff are really helpful (although they were struggling with a new till system) area is perfect after a walk and as people say, it is dog friendly and has a cosy atmosphere.

Small suggestions (take as you will):
* Front door needs to be fixed (no one could close it easily and it let cold air in constantly

* Have a barcode ordering system at the tables as well as till service. I know some people don't like barcodes but for those of us that do it would save the massive queue which happens around the cafe (getting in the way of people and staff ferrying coffees)

* Pop menus on tables or change the sign as it was super confusing (font and text all over the place, you could only see it when directly in front of the till which then made the queue longer)

Short of that, lovely place to visit, food and drink is great just expect a bit of a wait plus "cosy" seating :)

Cosy place with a great atmosphere and quirky decor. Super friendly staff and a great selection of food and drink. Definitely recommend a visit or seven! 😊👍

Today I was charged £4.50 for a single sausage in a bread roll. I ordered two so I paid £9 for two sausages and two bread rolls. I’m so disappointed. You usually get at least two sausages, sometimes more. How can you charge £4.50 for this … :(

I would rehang the front door. Cold draft every time door is opened, and door is difficult to close properly. Apart from that nice place to spend an hour, and coffee very nice.
