Since, Gillian and I have re-connected once a month we meet up for a chat and breakfast. Things have changed now, no, we haven’t fallen out, but we have lost our meeting venue. Yes a change in management, new opening time, and name as seen the old Plum Tree consigned to memory.
A new menu but no breakfast.
Why I liked the Plum Tree it was quiet, the quality of the breakfast was pretty much ok. Probably why the change because of the quietness when there is a Wetherspoon across the road with their cheap breakfast and ingredients. At the Plum Tree, it was nothing but cheap about the place.
So a new venue was needed for today’s meet-up it was an easy choice in the end. There are enough cafes in Canton but call me a snob I don’t consider them an enjoyable experience sitting in a café they want you out has quick as possible. I like to sit back and have a chat for a while.
The only place offering what I like is the Chapter Arts Centre and seeing as I was there only the other day why not see if it could be our new meeting place, if Gillian is happy with the venue, I can’t see why not.
For her first visit to the Chapter Gillian was impressed with the venue and her poached egg on toast while I was more than happy with my sausage and bacon sandwich. It was much livelier it’s popular with the yummy mums with their toddlers. “Caffi Bar Chapter” is popular with a general mix of people and outside the café, there is plenty happening in the centre. Not cheap again but I saved money by missing a full breakfast but I will be reviewing it soon.
There is even a Cinema and a fully stock bar we were finished too early to sample the bar. On the way home I nipped into the pub formally known as the Plum Tree, now renamed Tafarn Treganna checking out the menu. It was a standard Brains Brewery menu but for a bit of furniture being move round, little had changed. I had a pint.
