An arts centre and cafe in an original church with a fascinating history. The cafe has a good offer for a variety of diets. The exhibition space is upstairs but there is a lift. Well worth a visit

Iconic place in Cardiff. The first building constructed as a meeting place for Norwegian seafarers during the Industrial Revolution. The Church is an Evangelical-Lutheran and share an Apostolic, Christian faith.

Historic Norwegian church at the pier head in the Bay. Beautiful charming building with a gallery upstairs and cafe downstairs. There are regular craft fairs and artistic performances throughout the year. Nice lunchtime menu and hot drinks. Had a nice piece of cake and coffee as per usual. Lovely little stop if you're visiting the Bay.

We have been served by a young lady. Super friendly, smiley, kind and hard working. Place is clean including toilets. Food and drink-wise not so special., even a bit pricey. Recommended.

Very cute though bigger than it looks from outside.. didn't get chance to have a proper look around as there was a pilates and pups class on (or maybe something slightly less random) and didn't get chance to stop.in the cafe.. next time! Gallery wasn't what I expected,it was interesting and I'd have thought museum was a better description.. recommended by my daughter who loves the place
