Fabulous place. Staff were so warm and accommodating. Food is fantastic. I would pay more for locally produced meat.
I've come here for brekkie/brunch on and off over the months and every time it hasn't failed to amaze me. Staff are all welcoming and friendly, the place has a nice community of regulars by the looks of it. I've tried something different to eat every time and every time it's been outstanding. Decor is always beautiful and the place is spotless.
Amazing food, coffee and sweet treat! Love it here. Always a great visit!! Coffee is super smooth and flavourful. Food is forever cracking and huge portions. 10/10 recommend!! ...

Station 86, what a gem! I think this is the best brunch I've had in the Swansea area! Absolutely scrumptious! The bagel was perfectly toasted in glorious butter! The sausages were oh so juicy! The eggs was perfectly poached! The coffee was great too! I cannot wait to go back! Well done all and thank yoi!
Only my second time in Station 86 and was not disappointed. From the coffee to the breakfast everything tasted amazing. The service in here was also second to none with the most amazing and polite staff. I also have to say sorry to these guys as I spilt a glass of water and two cups of coffee all over the floor as I'm clumsy as hell. Thank you so much guys for a great experience and sorry again for the spillage
Visited here for breakfast and my standard order of scrambled eggs on toast! Nice menu selection though and I was tempted to try other things. Friendly staff and straight forward to order. They were busy and we had the last table thankfully. Service was a little slow for our food to come but we weren't in a rush so it didn't matter to us. Price was comparative to other places we have visited. I liked the fact you had a choice of sourdough or brown bread. Eggs looked very fresh (nice and yellow) a little softer and they would have been perfect. I wasn't a fan of the paprika and oil garnish but I was able to have some ketchup.
