Castellamare Restaurant Cafe Bar

What an absolute shame the quality in food service has dropped off an edge of a cliff!! This honestly used to be the go to place down the mumbles for our family special occasions but after our recent visit for a birthday meal I’m afraid it’s gone to the dogs!! Food was below average the only enjoyable part were the mussels but you don’t get many for your buck! You get better service in McDonald’s than we did along with other tables that were as shocked as us of the poor service quality, what topped it of was the fact the £30+ bottles of white wine were handed to us warm with no ice buckets the simplest of things!! Not once during our meal did any server pop by ask if everything was ok! Bring back the old Castellamare, I think the new owners/management are relying on location rather than the fundamentals of any restaurant look after your customers they’ll look after you especially during off-peak times! I’m genuinely saddened by the downfall of what used to be an enjoyable experience :

Haven't visited here for a while, what a shame, they have changed the chocolate brownie,home made, it now comes cold with artificial cream, it used to be so delicious, sent it back, I had the sourdough avacado for breakfast, don't bother, for 8.50 , it was way overpriced. Very small portion, hardly any feta on there. We drive almost an hour to this place. Won't be back.

Nice breakfast, good coffee, very quick service with lovely views and reasonably priced. We will return

The new owners of this restaurant have some improvements to make. The pizza has declined in quality compared to past experiences, being smaller and made with inferior ingredients. We were even served a salad with an item that the chef was unsure of. The manager apologized and offered a 'pint' of Peroni as a goodwill gesture (despite us being a party of 5 and mostly leaving the salad uneaten). Currently, the food quality does not match the price or the potential of the location and venue. However, the service was good and very friendly, and the location is wonderful with plenty of parking available. Hopefully, they will make the necessary adjustments and pay attention to detail in order to improve.

Extremely bitter coffee, undrinkable. 2 coffees and 2 cakes £12. Best coffee in Mumbles is in Newton Road.
