Great coffee and muffins. Busiest cafe on the street with the locals hanging out every day…read more Small and intimate. Just the place you come to where people remember your name.

Swell has been a part of the Avalon cafe scene for years however I've only just realised what a…read morelittle treasure this place is. It's a pretty simple layout with almost bench seating across one side and a few table sprawling onto the street. Clearly everyone else knew about this place because there is always a a couple people hanging around. They serve allpress beans and dish up quite a good cuppa for 'burbs coffee'- in fact it's the best coffee I've found in Avalon so far. I came here after a post beach lunch and went for the spinach, goat cheese, cherry tomato and avocado on rye toast which was pretty awesome- a solid half a star of this rating is attributed to that super tasty rye bread alone. They also do fresh juices- I tried the pineapple, mint, ginger and something juice which was pretty tasty. They staff were really chilled and friendly and the guy didn't care at all that I changed my order like 3 times. They were also going above and beyond to help give a recommendation to a couple not from around here about a nice restaurant in the area. Really enjoyed this place and kicking myself I didn't discover it 10 years ago!

Having said that there seems to be plenty of space for all types of patron. The menu has some nice selections - the chrorizo beans and poached eggs was rather fine as was the chicken panini. The owner always asks me if I would like a glass of wine no matter what time of day I'm in there. Yet to take him up on that and also yet to go to the Thurs/Fri wine bar sessions from 5.30-8.30.

I would've given this place 4 stars, but the egg & prosciutto sandwich is DELICIOUS--soft bun with a fried egg, prosciutto, tomato, spinach, and some kind of amazing aioli-type sauce. So it deserves 5 stars. Will definitely visit this place every time I'm in Newport!
