Their coffee is the closest to actually drinking coffee in Italy and invariably there are friends and family of the owners chatting away in Italian, close your eyes and you could be in Italy! All sorts of fillings are available for rolls and sandwiches but my personal favourite has to be a rustic roll with parma ham, mozzarella cheese with tomato, olive oil and basil. There are also options of hot homemade soup as well as authentic risotto rice balls filled with a variety of fillings.

St David's is a pretty remote place being, as it is, the westernmost point of the British Isles…read more Not the sort of place you'd expect to find a top quality deli. But here it is. A top quality deli at the westernmost point of the British isles. Manned (womanned?) by a dedicated group at the back of the shop who will knock you up a sandwich to go in minutes. Great local cheese counter. Lots of tasty pies, pasties, sausage rolls and scotch eggs. A couple of shelves of excellent white and red wines. And lots and lots of great quality bits and bobs from chocolates to pasta to dairy products. It's really well curated and the sort of place you'd expect to cost the earth. But it really doesn't. Very fair prices. A large baguette packed full of whatever you want will cost less than a fiver. We go there every day when we're on holiday and take our booty down to Whitesands for a delicious packed lunch. And when we're cooking, it's a great place to buy posh produce and a bottle of Pouilly Fume to go with the lobster or crab from down the road in Solva. Insider tip. Go early. Lunchtime gets crowded and although they work quickly it will be a bit of a wait if you're getting a packed lunch. This place is an absolute godsend if you like your food and wine. A real treat you can award yourself every day. Well, you are on holiday. For more St David's reviews please read my write ups on... The Farmer's arms. The Bishops. Gianni's ice cream. Saffron.

We had the most dreadful experience in this cafe on Thursday 11 April 2019, when my disabled wife…read morewas told by the proprietor that she couldn't sit in the restaurant area with comfortable chairs and proper tables, because of her Guide Dog! She could only sit in the dog friendly area that only had bar stools. We quickly explained that it is unlawful under Equality legislation to treat someone with disabilities less favourably because of their disability, or because they have a Guide or assistance Dog with them. But sadly, it quickly became obvious that my wife was not going to be treated with the respect and dignity she deserves, and the atmosphere was no longer conducive to enjoying a meal, so we left. He has since spoken with the Guide Dogs for the Blind Engagement Officer, and been informed of what he should have done, but no apology to my wife was ever forthcoming, which would have cost him nothing! I just want my wife to be treated like a human being! Each (illegal) "you can't sit here, sit over there" is a crushing, confidence shattering rejection.
