Rheidol Café and Cakery

rheidol café and cakery does cake properly. not as an afterthought beside the coffee, but as a genuine reason to go. cambrian street isn't a destination strip, so the fact that people seek this place out on a quiet aberystwyth side street says something about how consistently it delivers. the coffee side holds up too, strongly regarded by the kind of regulars who notice when it doesn't. if you're in aberystwyth and you're deciding where to spend an hour, this is a better answer than most of the options you'll walk past first. get there mid-morning, when the cakes are fresh and the day hasn't made you want to rush anything.
