Restaurants · Pembroke Dock
Set inside a garden centre in Pembroke Dock, this is a roomier stop than most cafés — buggies get through fine, there are high chairs, outdoor tables and free parking, so nobody's circling the block with a hungry toddler in the back. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone is melting down: the BBQ pulled pork panini with chips draws particular praise, portions are generous for the price, and the cakes and coffee are worth staying for. There's a kids' menu and vegan options too. Two honest notes: it gets loud and busy in school holidays, and tables aren't guaranteed, so book ahead. Service can be hit and miss — you usually order and pay at the till — but the food itself rarely disappoints. One family arrived expecting a garden centre caff and found it "megga posh".
