If you’re visiting Cardiff do yourself a favour and take a ten minute walk away from the city centre to find this gem. Really interesting menu, high quality, locally sourced ingredients, extremely friendly staff and excellent value.

P. R.

This family business deserve a 10 stars rating. Every is really good. The staff is always friendly. Good vegan choices and amazing cakes Please give it a try, you won't be disappointed :)

S. B.

I challenge you to walk past this shop without going in.. :D ....you won't! It was my first visit this morning. The fridges and counters are full of gorgeous looking delights both sweet and savory. I went for a ginger and orange upside down cake after changing my mind several times as there is so much here I wanted to try! The cake didn't disappoint. The serving was a massive wedge of deliciousness!! Staff are friendly, helpful and chatty. I will be back for sure and I've saved the menu to order in the future.

P. R.

Food is brilliant. Would never come if I was in a rush, they tend to only serve one person at a time and then take quite a long time with each person. It's great if you have nowhere to be but it you're just getting a cake to go its a bit much

O. R.

Lovely visit lunch time, GF salad was superb and highly recommend 👌 wish I had had room for GF cake, I will be back very soon for cake thank you

M. B.

I had the all day breakfast wrap (£6.50) and added maple cured bacon (£2.50) with a cappuccino (£2), everything was perfect, the bacon is so tasty, I only wish they offered traditional breakfast and brunch staples like poached eggs on toast with the same bacon, that'd be immense

A. D.

Great choice of food, most are vegetarian or vegan. Almost all the cakes are vegan and taste delicious! Coffee was really good and staff super friendly. Highly recommend.

A. P.

A stand-out independent cafe in a bright space with a lovely friendly vibe. Great for coffee, cake and tasty savory snacks and salads. What makes it really stand out is that most of the food is home-made, giving you really unusual, and often seasonal, flavours and combinations. The sheer range of cakes on offer is mind-blowing, and one of these days I'll get to try the spiced apple cider cake before it sells out! 🤞

S. A.

Love it hear! Super friendly staff and lovely food. Can't leave without a browse in the shop - always something new to try!

C. T. M.

Great service and delicious food/coffee. Little cold inside but worth it.

m. p.

Warm atmosphere, outstanding and creative food, delicious coffee. Something for everyone, no matter your dietary choices. All their beautiful salads are always vegan and gluten free. The staff are lovely and accommodating.

N. J.

Food is so good and if you are a vegan, then you will definitely love it! And of course, staff amazing and cakes amazing. I once had a slightly stiff and dry end of cake and before I had even eaten it, they came over and replaced it with a fresh slice. Always on the ball and friendly service!

F. W.

Great food, much of which is vegetarian or vegan.

S. E.

Incredible range of cakes suitable for vegans / lactose intolerants. Delicious coffee and awesome savoury options too. 100% recommend!

R. F.

Had a lovely vegan sausage bagette with a coffee and a fab salad box to take out the staff were all great.

M. H.

Incredible range of cakes, very reasonably priced. We managed a four person picnic for £30! (Order the pecan pie)

D. H.

Absolutely fantastic cakes and lovely coffee, good vibe and nice staff. Will definitely go again.

J. W.

Fantastic salads and lovely cakes, inc vegan options

D. W.

BEST SALADS EVER! I love this place. Friendly and bright with local art work on the walls, a great place to sit on or grab a take-away lunch. The wraps are good, but, for me, it's all about the salads. Fantastic value and each mouthful is a taste sensation. Amazing cakes too.

D. N.

Great food and what a great selection of cake 🍰 to eat, staff smashing too

S. S. N. S.

Really tasty, healthy homemade food. The curry Dahl was delicious with such a depth of flavour. Always enjoy my meals here. Highly recommended 😊

T. S.

Friendly staff, great food. The festive burrito is killer, definitely worth popping in for a bite. Keep up the good work! I’ll be back!

P. P.

Went here yesterday for a coffee, it was good! Gorgeous coffee & vegan cake, lovely staff, really friendly atmosphere. I'll definitely come again. Thank you Kemi!

K. S.

Love the salads here. Calling them "salads" doesn't do them justice though. Loads of options, all vegan and super tasty. They do a veggie scotch egg with onion bhaji rather than sausage meat. Defo worth a try. Lovely chatty staff too :)

K. B.

Brilliant salads as always !! And great coffee

S. T.

Had a very tasty falafel wrap on my first visit here on Friday served by friendly and thoughtful staff. Will definitely be back!

Q. S.

We shared a delicious salad platter & loved all the different flavours. Can't wait to go back & try more of their wholesome selection. The oat milk latte was great too 🤩🤩🤩

a.

Really friendly staff and great food, both sweet and savoury.Their partnership with Oasis is also really cool and comendable!

D. P.

Great offerings for those seeking vegan and veggie options, plus some for the meat eaters too. Nice atmosphere, fab location, lovely interior with local art on display. Bright and fresh for a weekend morning!

T. W.

Amazing food! The salads are incredible, great if you like interesting flavours. Staff are always friendly and just a great place for lunch in general.

A. S.

Great food and super friendly staff. The salad boxes are always a hit and are really filling! There's always a nice chilled atmosphere at Kemis and the food is great, what's not to like?

What a great friendly cafe this is and whilst it does serve some meat products, their speciality is Vegan food and salads. They also do a yummy looking range of cakes, including a Vegan one, but sadly we did not get chance to try them during our visit. I had a Vegan breakfast, even though I do eat meat. Bacon is the alternative to the Vegan sausage. I thought the sausage was OK. but I was not so keen on whatever was used for the casings. My wife had salmon and scrabbled egg on toast, but it was spoilt a bit because her toast was burnt. The 3 Vegans with us enjoyed their breakfasts. They told us the salads here are very good. The cafe is friendly to dogs too. The cafe only opens during the daytime..

j. d.

The host was very helpful the food was delicious. We had a few different salads and a cheese and fig quiche. They had lots of options for vegetarians and everything tasted fresh and delicious.

A. H.

Went to Kemis over the weekend for breakfast. The food was good but the portions were smaller than a typically breakfast meal and a bit overpriced. I would however go back to Kemis for a coffee and dessert. They looked amazing and a bit more reasonably priced!

C. J.

Fantastic food! Lovely home-made quiches, scotch eggs and amazing salads. Beautiful cakes. Great place for lunch. Highly recommended.

a.

What a little Gem in pontcanna.. We had a lovely lunch, nice staff great food.. Fabulous cake . We will definitely go there again and soon. Not easy to park as we live in Penarth and it is a very busy area

S. C.

Kemis at Pontcanna is the quintessential eatery in the cool and sought after neighbourhood in the Welsh capital, and should not be missed. The warm ambience welcomes you into the bright space, and the soulful food along with the charismatic owners makes you want to stay. Killer salads, wraps and quiches in abundance. This place knocks it out of the park in all departments! We will be back!!!
