Glanmor's is the last of a dying breed; an old fashioned tea room that has been securely woven into the fabric of a modern shopping centre.
While it may not look very fashionable on the outside and the regular inhabitants wouldn't look out of place on the bowls green, this quaint tea room does get a surprising amount of attention from tourists and passers by, mainly due to its location of being directly opposite Caerphilly Castle. But while people may come in primarily for the view, they stay for the food, with delicious snacks served up daily, from cakes and scones to sandwiches and pasties.
With waitresses dressed in traditional tea room attire, apron and all, there is a traditional feel to the restaurant that is distinctly unique and noticeably lacking in most modern coffee shops; that good, old fashioned TLC that you don't get in chain stores like Starbucks and Costa, where you are rushed in and out with out so much as a "please" or "thank you". At Glanmor's you really get the impression everything you see is freshly made and everything is done to the finest standard possible, and that hard work shows through in both the presentation of the shop and the taste of the food.
A truly unique shop that will pleasantly surprise even the most sceptical of customers. read more
