Great place to sit and watch the world go by with a lovely cup of coffee

Good coffee as usual. Tried the seasonal offer and really liked it.Banana and chocolate cake a little dry.

Keri and the gang are totally fab. They are not only lovely, warm kind people who make delicious coffee but they found my wallet, tracked me down and returned it to my house straight away! Life savers!

Very nice, I love the Gingerbread Lattè, a treat for me. I enjoyed a Mozzarella, Tomatoe and Pesto toastie, and the doggies were allowed in too 🙂🐶🐕🐶🙂The queue can sometimes be a long wait...

I enjoy my coffee and snack in the simple surroundings of the Coffee#1 in Penarth. The service is prompt and polite with payment easy through the chain's app. There are even books available to browse and games for children. The seating is varied with lounge and easy chairs as well as more upright chairs for any laptop work needed.

Lovely range of coffees and confectionary. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Look forward to returning on our regular shopping trips

I have always loved Coffee #1, and believe it is the best chain around this area. I order a large caramel latté with extra caramel and an extra shot, and after 2 of those (I'm beginning number 2 as I write), I can't think straight anymore, my handwriting goes completely wonky, and I forget the way home. That's the sign of a potent brew. The taste is good, but I've had 99 doses of radiotherapy (yes, ninety-nine) on my throat area, so my taste buds are redolent of a bad night out in Mogadishu. The latté art is spot on, so I don't hold it against the (traditionally harassed) barista that he could only with great effort hold back a wince of distaste at my Philestinism when I said yes to his offer of a swirl of squirty caramel sauce on top of the accomplished rosette. I ran a coffee shop for a while, and I used to snarl at everyone even though my latté art was poop and I only knew how to make one type of drink, regardless of what was ordered. The atmosphere is lovely, and I'm here at 1pm on a Tuesday. It's gently buzzing and only disturbed by one SCREAMING baby, (too many ristretto, methinks). We look out onto the fairly dull Penarth main street; more stimulating to point your chair inwards - this cafe is surprisingly deep, with enough tables for me not to feel *too* guilty/awkward at taking up a potential 3 seater on my lonesome. (To be honest, with a stoma in your neck and an electric voice, you get away with pretty much anything anywhere anyway - never underestimate the power of sympathy/revulsion). The atmosphere is in fact so pleasant that although I only came in for a takeaway cup, I've ended up staying for 2 and a takeaway pecan/salted caramel brownie for my dear wife. Come to this cafe. I don't think you'll regret it

A good sign is that it's always busy, and that's because it's imho the best coffee shop in Penarth. Good selection of coffee, fresh fruit juices and homemade cake and biscuits. Staff are always friendly and eager to help.
