This picturesque cafe, perched on the end of a leafy Victorian-terraced street, is a proper hidden gem. Healthy, fresh and sustainably sourced ingredients are used to create a mouth-watering menu of breakfasts, brunches and lunches, whilst local cheeses, chutneys and homemade cakes and breads are available on the deli counter all day long. There's also a daily selection of organic fruit and veg available to buy from the stall out-front.
The Penylan Pantry has a low food-waste ethos; in fact, up to 70% the menu is made up of items that would have otherwise become food waste; cauliflower leaves, beetroot leaves, broccoli stalks, carrot tops, celeriac tops and other lesser-known but perfectly delicious bits of veg go into their smoothies, soups and stews; bread is turned into breadcrumbs that coat the scotch eggs; and oils from the salad bar are used to brush bruschetta before toasting to make it extra tasty.
