A father and son have opened their second caf\u00e9 in Cardiff.<\/p>\n

Colin Brooker, 57, and his son Simon, 24, welcomed their first customers into the second branch of Sorrento\u2019s<\/a> two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

\"cafe

The opening of the second Sorrento\u2019s on Salisbury Road, Cathays comes after the success of their first caf\u00e9, which is situated near Roath Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The duo decided to set up their first cafe after Colin had returned from working in Australia and Simon had graduated from university.<\/p>\n

Sorrento\u2019s is open from breakfast until dinner and serves a variety of food and beverages, ranging from artisan burgers to luxury milkshakes.<\/p>\n

Colin says, \u201cWorking with my son has really drawn us together. The family run business helps to create somewhere that\u2019s comfortable for everyone and compliments our home style cooking with a modern twist.\u201d<\/p>\n
