About Wyndham Cafeteria
In Wyndham Arcade, Wyndham Cafeteria is a cafe operating as an offshoot of Waterloo Tea House, serving breakfast through the day. The menu covers pancakes with bacon and maple syrup, fried eggs with hash browns and mushrooms, a cheesy omelette, and breakfast brioches alongside a fried egg sandwich. Seating spans both inside the cafe and out in the arcade, giving those who prefer eating outdoors a spot to sit. High chairs are set out for families with young children, and a step-free entrance allows visitors with mobility needs to get in easily. The cafe runs on a walk-in basis, with no booking system in place. It opens Wednesday to Sunday during the day, staying closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Portions arrive generous in size, and breakfasts are priced in the £6 to £8 range.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the draw here, with soft, fluffy pancakes and crispy bacon, a full English praised for its locally sourced ingredients, and a cheesy omelette called delicious. Close behind is the coffee, described as excellent by several reviewers, though one finds it not the best. Others single out the fried egg sandwich, generous portions of fried eggs, hash browns and mushrooms, and the breakfast brioches. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and polite, and food often arrives quickly at affordable prices. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found the bacon too salty and the sausages too meaty. Another waited a very long time for food, with part of a partner's plate missing and their own meal arriving once she had nearly finished. Staff put this down to a busy spell and a new team member. One returning reviewer found the newer brioches imaginative and flavourful.

“Food was good but took very long time to arrive. When it finally got to us my partner got hers with some missing and I had to wait until she nearly finished to start on mine. Reason given was they were very busy and a new member of staff started.”
- Klaus Mathie
“Quaint little cafe. Large coffee portions, good food. Most breakfasts for 6-8 pounds. Friendly, attentive staff. Quiet, friendly atmosphere”
- Marc Whalley
“By far the best breakfast in town!!! Great food, great calm atmosphere and top service :)”
- David Carley
“Came in on the off chance and was overall impressed. Was seated and served quickly. Food was great but staff looked like they had many jobs to do. Prices seem reasonable for Central Cardiff. But will come back again.”

“Great cafe in centre of Cardiff in a lovely old shopping arcade. Modern interior with friendly staff. Food served quickly - I had the fried egg sandwich which was great.”
