Cafe Fresco is a friendly sit-in café in the centre of Porthcawl, serving breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

Dogs are welcome inside, so you can settle in together after a morning on the seafront or a wander around town. The café serves a straightforward menu of hot drinks, light meals and bakes in a relaxed setting. It's the sort of place where you can arrive with sandy paws and a tired dog and know you'll both be looked after without fuss.

Handy for the top end of John Street and just a short stroll from the promenade, Cafe Fresco makes a practical stop when you need a proper sit-down and a cup of tea that doesn't involve leaving anyone tied up outside.
