Built in 1932, The Grand Pavilion, with its octagonal dome and striking frontage has dominated the Porthcawl seafront for 70 years. Originally intended as a Palm Court, the Pavilion has always operated as a multifunctional venue.
Our seafront café bar is open 7 days per week including bank holidays with outstanding sea views and outside terrace seating in the summer months. The licensed bar and café are serving breakfasts, delicious teas and speciality coffees, light snacks, delicious cakes and a daily selection of main meals.
We have many regular café guests who enjoy our friendly café atmosphere and welcoming staff. It's an ideal place to meet up whatever the weather! Our adjacent car park makes access easy and we have full facilities for disabled guests.
The café bar also features displays of artwork by local artist, regular café jazz sessions and classical recitals throughout the year.
On selected show dates pre theatre dining is available - see our seasonal program for further information and menus. Advanced booking is advisable.
On show dates our licensed bar is open both pre and post shows for a relaxing drink so why not get there early and make the most of your night out at the theatre.
