WE have lined up the best places in the town to enjoy a delightful cup of coffee outdoors.
There's nothing quite like enjoying a coffee and tasty treat in the sunshine with your friends.
And, of course, that is now all possible once again after April 26 brought about the reopening of outdoor areas for cafes in Wales.
Up to six people or two households can have a catch up while sipping on their favourite caffeinated beverage.
With plenty of cafés to choose from in and around the town, it can be hard to pick a place to go for a caffeine fix and a sugar rush.
Here’s our list, and do let us know your favourites too in the comments below.
The Crêpe Escape, Glebe Street
Despite having little outdoor space, they have transformed it into the ‘Secret Escape’ and they are hoping to welcome customers on a booking basis in there.
They have also teamed up with Dough2Go who will be supplying them with their artisan donuts which are all handmade with locally sourced ingredients.
The spot is open Monday to Saturday from 9.30am until 5.30pm, and Sunday from 10am until 4pm.
The Galley, Penarth Marina
The Galley, formerly Compass Coffee, is a multi-award winning cafe located in Penarth Marina.
