It's a coffee shop. On a corner…read more The imaginatively named Coffee Corner is a tiny independent cafe on one of Aberystwyth's quieter streets. It's "nice" in every sense of the word. The owner is nice. The coffee's nice (no better, no worse). The home-made Bara Brith and other assorted cakes? Most accurately surmised as "nice". Last time I was in the Corner Cafe, the adjacent table was occupied by local Green Party representative, who was quietly discussing her plans to make the world a better place with her policy team (her mum, her uncle and her daughter, as far as I could make out). Ah, isn't that nice?

A friendly-looking tea shop continental-style! It is strange you'd think you'd find more good tea…read moreshops in Wales. People here prefer the quick teabag or the very good Twinings tea. At the Mecca I bought vanilla tea once which was not very fresh. They sell fresh coffee, too, which is nice. Good place to buy a birthday present, maybe a mug or tea biscuits.

I am going to agree with the previous statement "coffee is not hugely abundant in this part of the…read moreworld". You are free to associate this snobbery with my American roots. In any event, it certainly is refreshing to be able to grab a non-instant cup of coffee and a tasty muffin from a smiling cashier/barista. I know there was a big palaver to get the proper permits for an eat in coffee place. IMO, it was well worth it. This place is comfy and comforting. Normally, I wouldn't give a chain coffee joint 5 stars but the consistency of Costa is refreshing in deed.

I went here for breakfast recently and was surprised how much it had changed since id last visited…read more- its an upstairs cafe/ restaurant above the shops on Great Darkgate Street (I recommend the seats by the window if possible as this means you can people watch people walking up and down the high street) I visited for breakfast although I think it is open into the evening when it becomes less cafe more restaurant. In recent times the cafe has had a makeover which made it much more modern (it did used to have a very 70s feeling about it) they do a full range of breakfast and a selection of teas and coffees which make a good place to go if you fancy a break from shopping on a Saturday morning,
