This is an extremely busy little cafe a few minutes walk from the bustling St. David's Cathedral. The walls are covered with samplers hence the name of the cafe and a card with details of the history of each is available. The menu is basic cafe food, though I must say I ordered peppermint tea and was amazed to discover it was made with fresh peppermint leaves from the garden -- a far superior cup of tea to that which comes in a teabag. We also had some sandwiches which involved choosing our bread and filling from a wide choice. I had waldorf filling which was soft cheese, apple, celery, and walnuts -- an interesting but very tasty sandwich filler. There was also a good range of cakes but I resisted those! The cafe also sells baguettes and loaves of bread though that isn't obvious from the outside. Ideally you should get here before midday to avoid the rush of coachloads looking for a cup of tea. The cafe is closed two days a week.
