Reviews of Gershwins Coffee House

C. K.

First time I have visited Gershwin's and it was spot on. Ended up having a monster breakfast and coffee and it was perfect, very tasty and didn't break the bank. The restaurant is clean and the staff were excellent, would definitely visit again when in Swansea.

J.

Busy coffee house right in the city centre. You know it's good when the locals of all walks of life come here for breakfast. Lovely staff and great set menu with lots of choices. This would be the place if you're looking to try the Welsh breakfast with laver and cockles.

R. W.

Just popped in for lunch at Gershwins _ ham and mushroom omlette with Salad. Service was very prompt & attentive.The meal was perfect. The chef brought it to us himself. Great size mixed salad to go with it om the side. Coffee was very tasty too.

M. U.

Really nice cafe, good breakfast and good cake and uber friendly staff

B.

As simple as it seems, the Gershwins surprised me a lot and I will definitely return when I'm in Swansea next. I've had the salmon and dill fish cake with mash and salad and I was blown away. Thank you.

S. L.

Best breakfast in town! Beautiful cafe, great atmosphere and brilliant staff! Would 100% recommend!

A. T.

Has a lasanga here and i must say was amazing one of the best if not the best lasagna ive ever had And ive eaten lasagna in a lot of pubs and cafes as its one of my favourate meals Could clearly tell by how nice it tasted the lasagna was homecooked 👊 Staff very friendly and pleasant too Am a very happy customer

H. y. S.

Coming as tourists, we were excited to try some good ol' Welsh fare. Stumbled upon Gershwins via Google and wolfed down a delightful "rarebit" ciabbata and excellent traditional Welsh breakfast. Great service and value too! Highly recommended for a nice brunch/lunch around swansea city centre.

A. D.

Excellent customer service. I had a cheese toastie with fresh salad which wasn't too much. I've had a breakfast there before which is good value.

B. M.

Lovely food and excellent service. Their homemade vegetable soup is a must! Perfect on a cold winter's day.

A. B.

By far the best cafe you can visit in Swansea, been a regular for years now and have always had a great meal. Staff are always very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone looking for lunch, a snack or just drinks.

Great place to eat for a quick bite or a full Sunday roast. The staff are attentive and helpful; the food filling and reasonably priced. I'm happy to frequent Gershwins

M. S. S.

Professional and very accommodating staff. The breakfast was really good and the customer service was spectacular. Been there a few times now and love it every time I go there. The place itself is pretty and very clean.

A. O.

Really good, the food was excellent. We ordered a huge breakfast order with extra toast and I tried a welsh breakfast with cockles and lavabread, it was delicious. We will def go each year when we camp at the Gower. Very cheerful friendly lady serving and running the place.

G. B.

They're the only cafe that I've come across in the whole of Swanse who do a proper traditional Welsh Breakfast, with cockles and laver bread.

T. T.

Very, very nice food here and the staff are lovely! A hidden gem in Swansea. Better than the Grape and Olive! Paid the earth there and had terrible food, came to a little cafe like Gershwins and it was the best burger I have ever had. Lovely chips, coleslaw, nice salad, onion rings. Divine!!

M. C.

Good, speedy and inexpensive, great place.

H. L.

Great service and great food as always

S. K.

Friendly staff, good food

G. S.

Popped in for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Friendly greeting. Helpful and accommodating when ordering. Traditional and veggie breakfast cooked really well and tasty. Homely atmosphere. About £7 with a drink, so not the cheapest, but well worth it.

M. O.

A lovely warm atmosphere, even if the shop itself was slightly chilly. The staff were welcoming and attentive, and the food was above average, arriving at the table in what seemed to be record time. I would definitely recommend going here for a little meetup over food and coffee.

C. B.

Very good Welsh breakfast, good service, quaint little Cafe, all around good place

C. W.

We have eaten at Gershwin's for years, Johnathan and his staff are always welcoming and the service is spot on. The menu has a great variety from breakfasts, omelettes, burgers, salads, curries and always great specials. It is very reasonably priced for the city centre. Keep up the good work.

G. J.

Visited Saturday, table for two. Expertly worked around COVID restrictions, great friendly service, staff happy to chat. Great cheese on toast and lovely Latte. Good prices too.

D. W.

I've been going to Gershwins for years but my husband & I had Sunday lunch there for the first time. The beef was beautiful & there were 5 vegetables including my favourite roast parsnips. The Stuffing was really nice too encased in a Yorkshire pudding - I just wish I could have eaten more 😊

S. b.

Really good home cooked food. Very nice and pleasant staff... Really good time here. Thanks guys

Recently came here for lunch. The staff were lovely and I love the Tudor feel to the place. I ordered a vegetable soup and the helping was hearty, was overflowing the bowl. I wasn't able to finish it so she packaged it for me and cling-filmed it so tightly, so there was no mess in my bag and was just as good when I had it for supper. Will be back whenever I'm in town :)

L. D.

The Sunday lunch is excellent. Melt in the mouth beef with Yorkshire pudd, stuffing, roasts and five home cooked vegetables. That was a half serving as my friend promised me I wouldn't be able to finish off a full serving.....she was right. Well done Gershwin's!

M. J.

This is a lovely little restaurant. Great for just popping in for a coffee or for a nice bit of lunch. The staff are always really friendly and welcoming.

K. K.

This place is amazing, great food, great staff and just all round brilliant. Very clean and great food at decent prices too. They always welcome everyone with a smile, no matter how busy they are. Just an amazing place.

N. a. B.

A bit cold but we went there for food and boy did they deliver. From the crispy garlic bread down to the juicy peas. Free WiFi. 5 food hygiene rearing and excellence review on trip advisor bothbof which are eelll deserved. Staff are lovely, next time I come to Swansea I'll be sure to drop by.

J. W.

Lovely staff, food and service, highly recommend:)

S. J.

A. A.

I have always felt like family coming her. They didnt have a meal on the menu anymore but the chef made it for me anyway. I felt special. The food a lovely and all homemade. Its very cosy and welcoming inside with plenty of seating :)

N. T.

M. W.

Loveable, hommie, local, trully welshie food and interior! Very kind and helpful staff and friendly atmosphere. One of not many retro style eateries in a Town. Real <3 and I'm saying that as an immigrant! Keep going that path, Folks!

K. h.

Been here a few times food is quite good, but won't be returning no options for non dairy milk or butter, had the vegetarian breakfast asked for fried bread instead of toast because no non dairy butter and sad to say it was deep fried and was basically inedible due to it dripping with fat. So won't be returning 🙁

F. A. S.

Very standard Welsh coffee house. The breakfast was not disappointing but nothing made it stand out. Above average portions is the only positive aspect of the restaurant.

M. J.

We had a very good lunch to day 15/8/13 our daughter Tania was 30. The food was excellent,the lady who greeted us was from Northern Ireland, most helpful lady who explained the menu, the choice was amazing, the price was even better, looking forward to another visit soon....

(Translated) The Welsh Breakfast is amazing when you see it happen, but above all it is surprisingly delicious and served with a sincere smile and in a joyful atmosphere!!! We keep this address preciously: thank you. (Original) Le Welsh Breakfast est étonnant quand on le voit arriver, mais il est surtout surprenamment délicieux et servi avec un sourire sincère et dans une ambiance joyeuse !!! Nous gardons précieusement cette adresse : merci à vous.

(Translated) The typical Welsh breakfast is very good, the restaurant in the center is beautiful and the service is excellent by young girls. The place is always full. The only note are the very strong smells of fried food in the dining room, the clothes once out are to be washed! (Original) Molto buona la colazione tipica gallese, bello il locale in pieno centro e ottimo il servizio curato da giovani ragazze. Locale sempre pieno. Unico appunto sono gli odori molto forti di fritto in sala, i vestiti una volta usciti sono da lavare!
