Espresso from a park stall that holds its own against Swansea's cafes, poured by a barista whose coffee knowledge people keep talking about.

Swansea's best espresso argument comes from a stall in the park, not a cafe.

What we love

  • The barista's coffee knowledge, local and global, stands out enough that people mention it by name
  • Milk skimmed properly to order, with non-dairy options available
  • Its espresso gets called out as some of the best in Swansea, ahead of full sit-down cafes

Sloth Coffee Co.★★ Specialty

The batch brew has real depth without tipping into syrupy, and the decaf flat white is balanced enough to win over a self-described coffee snob.

Crafty Smuggler Coffee Roastery & Cafe★★ Specialty

An own-roasting cafe on Western Street where the espresso arrives in a preheated earthenware cup, and a properly named cortado is on offer if you want something specific to order.

Storm in a Teacup Coffeehouse★★ Specialty

A single stall inside Swansea Market turning out espresso and iced coffee good enough that regulars rank it among the best coffee in the building, market snack or not.
