A new coffee shop and restaurant has opened next to Cardiff's Victoria Park after the previous owner closed their business and moved to France. Gathering Ground has opened a third site in Cardiff at the site of the much-loved La Crêperie de Claudie after the business closed earlier this year.
Gathering Ground has two other sites in Roath and Whitchurch and is an independent, family-run restaurant and coffee shop. The dog-friendly business offers coffee and cakes as well as hosting burger nights and live music events. The latest site has opened on Victoria Park Road West in Canton.
Currently, the coffee shop is going through a re-brand and the Victoria Park site is serving coffee and cakes. Co-owner Terry Morrell says that the site's kitchen will be opening this weekend. He added that the team is working on a consistent menu that will be available across all three of the sites.
