Whocult Coffee + Donuts - Bridgend — Restaurant in Wales

I visit here regularly to catch up with friends. There's always lots of doughnuts to choose from and they never disappoint! Always so colourful, creative and the options change all the time. Sometimes I find them too sweet, but that might just be me.

The coffee is always good but I had a matcha latte last time I went and I have to say, it was the worst matcha I've ever had. :( The colour was a muddy dark green rather than a bright green as it should be. I had to ask for some vanilla syrup half way through so I could finish it. This was definitely not down to the barista, who was really friendly and attentive - It was made perfectly. The quality of matcha is at fault here. Investing in a ceremonial or premium grade matcha would make a huge difference and as a matcha enjoyer I would love to see this happen, especially as there aren't a lot of options for matcha in Bridgend besides Starbucks, and I would rather not support that chain.

Everything else is always great. I rated 3 stars for the atmosphere as the door is often left open in the Winter and it gets freezing...

Meh. The donut was nice, the coffee was fine I guess but for the 45 minute wait, clueless & miserable barrista, and awful beans I wouldn't reccomend going here. One thing I will say is do not buy the beans here, they're awful. The most bitter, fruity beans I've ever had. I tried to ask the barrista about them before purchasing but all he said was "They are the same as the ones we use in the store" like yah that helps dude, I've never been here before, I don't know what beans you use. He also got my friends order wrong and charged double which we didn't notice until afterwards. Probably contributes to the 45 minute wait having this sap running the place. That said the donut was good. Nothing special but it was good. Overall if there's no queue and you fancy a donut, pop in. Avoid: the coffee, conversations with the barrista, and the whole place if there's a queue

Edit: Two years later tried again, same story. Instead of a miserable guy now there's two angry girls but still terrible service for...

After reading a lot of hype on facebook - decided to finally give it a go (August 2020) - Just over an hour round trip for us but i'm willing to travel for good coffee and snacks.

As you can see - the donuts looked amazing - bright and colourful and VERY enticing. Unfortunately, we don't think it was worth the trip =[ The biscoff donut was nice enough (but nothing special). My partner had a filled donut (yellow) but there was barely any filling at all. With reagrds to the coffee .... The milk was overheated/burnt, coffee quite bitter and my partners cappuccino was half empty within 5 mins (foam dissolved). We had already driven away at this point so decided not to turn back.

There was a pretty long wait but as there was only one member of staff and covid restrictions, they were doing their best and i praise them on this. Not saying that i wouldn't rea-attempt, but i would try other places first as 4 donuts and coffee...
