Judge
for Yourself
You probably think I am going to say this cafe has the best food I have
ever tasted. Therefore, it will surprise you when I say I have never
sampled their cooking. Let us consider this; it really does not matter
what the reviewer of any restaurant says about the food, it's what you the
customer think that matters.
So let me start again, I am confident that if you visit the Bread of
Heaven - the best Cafe in Pontypool, they will prepare just the breakfast /
lunch / snack just as you like it. Why do I make such a prediction?
Well just seeing how the waitresses operate, they just focus on the
customers, listen to what they want and serve it up.
I have also seen the chef, he occasionally comes out of the kitchen and
speaks with his regulars, he just looks like a man who likes his work, and
would cook just the snack, lunch or breakfast that you wanted.
The Blind Customer in the Bread of Heaven
I would like to mention the curious case of the totally blind customer
who comes into the Bread of Heaven under his own steam. I have seen
him in there at least 4 times, he must be a regular. One or other of
the waitresses chats to him, takes his order, and looks after him, nothing
special, just an extension of how they empathise with each and every customer.
I gave some thought as to why this blind man negotiates the streets of Pontypool with his white stick, and
then settles in the Bread of Heaven rather than one of the other 7 cafes
nearby? It must be because they treat him well, it is also likely to
be because the food is good. If you have lost one sense then it stands
to reason that your other senses are enhanced.
Good Cafe Layout at the Bread of Heaven
So, now are beginning to understand why I say the Bread of Heaven is the
best cafe in Pontypool. Another aspect I should mention is the
cafe's layout. I like the way that you see the waitresses as soon as
you enter the door. They take my order, then I sit at one of the many
tables that extend towards the back; in no time they bring over my order.
I must confess I was thinking about trying one of at least 7 cafes in the
centre of Pontypool, but none looked as inviting as the Bread of Heaven
Bread of Heaven Prices Perhaps I have visited too many motorway restaurants, but to my way of
thinking, the prices in the Bread of Heaven are cheap. But there
again, they probably know their market, and with zillions of other cafe's
nearby you would have to be competitive to stay in business.
Precisely Why Do I Go To the Bread of Heaven? Lest your curious, why do I go there?
Well, it's a place I like to go to think, read, and make notes. In
this respects
it's the perfect coffee-house. And the coffee, its above average.
Again it doesn't matter what I think, my bet is the waitress would make it the way
YOU liked it, with more milk, or extra strong - just ask the next time you
visit.

Why This Review?
I just like to write-up, and praise those rare people who are in perfect synchrony with their job. Why do I say the Bread of Heaven is the best cafe
in Wales? Because I cannot think of anything more I would want from a
place to have a cup of coffee and a snack.
