longa turkish café: Reviews & Ratings
The Turkish Breakfast Feast For 2 (but is so generous portioned it could be for 3) is in my top 10 meals I’ve ever had. It’s just a... look sorry if this sounds pretentious (it does)... but it’s just a cavalcade of pleasures. It’s a candidate for the best breakfast in Wales. So there. Staff’s lovely and helpful, and to top it off it’s perfectly reasonably priced. Coffee’s great. Parking’s easy. I mean the fact that this place exists is altogether a minor miracle.
Actually, in shock to find a breakfast place that was delicious with good service. Place deco was not over the top but prefect and gave an all season vibe. Food had lovely flavours, and the food was not too heavy, which kept me full throughout the day. The drinks are pimping hot, which is a plus side. Definitely would recommend, especially if you're travelling outside Wales, and need a good breakfast.
Wanted to visit this place for a long time & it didn't disappoint! Excellent food! Can't wait to come back & work my way through the menu!
Really good spot for breakfast. Had a turkish coffee and potatoes and sausage. Really good portions for the price. Service was lovely as well. Would definitely recommend a visit. A rare 5 stars! I would recommend making a reservation as the seating at the back isn't as lovely as the fron of the cafe
Mix of Menemen Yumurta Sucuk and it was delicious. My partner had eggs and potatoes Both served with a bread tray. Super friendly server, fast food delivery, piping hot and full of authentic flavour. Sent this to my Turkish friend and he said it looks very good and he wishes he was here to try it. I will definitely be back to try other items. What a great place to dine at 5 star all round.
My partner never says no to a good Turkish breakfast and this place did not disappoint. We both enjoyed the Turkish breakfast for two! Good portion, well presented and delicious. The restaurant was clean and staff was great. Would definitely recommend to try.
What a fantastic find this place is! We’ve eaten Turkish food before, but this was such a wonderful surprise. As a brunch, it fitted our needs perfectly and didn’t cost the earth. Certainly didn’t leave feeling hungry, in fact we had to take some away with us, couldn’t leave it, as far too nice. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and fancy some fresh authentic food
Stayed in Cardiff for a month and visited a couple of times and it never disappointed! Staff are exceptionally friendly (especially the lovely smiley lady with brown hair who’s always on the counters- couldn’t catch her name unfortunately)! I’ve had Turkish brunch a few times and it’s definitely one of the best ones I’ve had here. Food is freshly made and flavoursome and the meat is halal here too. The iced coffee is nice and strong too- appears quite milky but the coffee itself definitely has a punch. If you’re in Cardiff or visiting, I’d definitely recommend this as one of your brunch options
