The place is very nice. It has a space for kids and allows to talk without being disturbed. Personnel is nice and friendly. They seem to enjoy working here so I guess it's a good workplace as well. Food was very good. 4 stars just because I asked my eggs with runny yolks and they were not.
Food was excellent, restaurant was lovely and the staff were polite. Toilets were a bit grubby which is more down to the building than the restaurant - but it's a shame as they're intrinsically linked. Would've been five stars otherwise.
Staff are a bit lifeless - seems like the establishment chose a good roundup of relatively attractive people with no regard for smiles or charisma. Nonetheless food is gorgeous, though I think prices could be a bit lower. I had the charceuterie and the soup. Both were yummy, and the charceuterie had a good selection of cheeses and olives. The menu has lots of good vegan and veggie choices to choose from. The seating and decor is very bright and refreshing, with huge windows looking out onto the street. There are comfier sofas and big TV screens for rugby, as well as a lovely big wall or art and music album covers which is very interesting. It's a nice place to go after having a look around the story museum.

To visit Milk & Sugar is to escape the madding crowd. That said, it can get fairly hectic with all the families who’ve discovered this wonderful addition to town. You certainly don’t have to have kids to come here though – have visited as a family, a couple, for business, and with the boys for a beer - worked just great for all outings. The gallery-like space, which is upstairs in the Old Library (or Yr Hen Lyfrgell to give it the moniker preferred by the city since Welsh Government established this stunning building in The Hayes as a Welsh language centre), makes for a lovely environment and the food is great (and cooked in front of you down one side of the large room).
That said, if you have little ones in tow you’ll be so glad you found Llaeth a Siwgr, or Milk & Sugar. And yes, there is (really slow) lift access to the cafe - there’s also a ramp for wheelchairs and prams to enter the raised ‘ground’ floor of the Old Library on its west side (St David’s Hall side). Here you’ll find The Cardiff Story (museum about the city), an information office, and Bodlon’s gift shop.
Owned by club and bar entrepreneur turned cafe owner Tim Corrigan, this branch of Milk & Sugar is one of central Cardiff’s best independently owned, family friendly venues - it’s light, smart and modern, and there’s plenty of room for toddlers and young kids to roam and play (there’s a dedicated play corner with a large selection of toys). We’ve always found the staff to be good and are said to siarad Cymraeg, and it’s in an amazing location in the leafy heart of Cardiff.
The fresh mini Welsh cakes we received with our coffees this morning were a nice touch - and the food, as ever, was yum; quality ingredients, well put together.
As you can see from the pics, it was lovely and quiet first thing on a Saturday morning, but it didn’t stay that way for long.
Fantastic food and great atmosphere, a real hidden gem. Highly recommended.
Really nice cafeteria inside the museum with lots of seating. Excellent food quality. I had the salmon and avocado salad and it was lovely.
Great place, lovely food. Reasonably priced, mains about £6-9 each and good value for money.
Picture is of Avocado, Broccoli, pomegranate salad.
All day breakfast, big portions, amazing salads, good coffee. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Needs a bit more fresh air or air conditioning.
Awesome food, drinks and service! And good value for money.
Quality lunch here the other day. Sat down, ordered and food came within 10/15 mins which is great when on a lunch break in work.
