Repair Cafe Barry

We're off and running today and we have plenty of festive snacks for you!

Remember you don't have to have something to be fixed to come along - come and socialise, have a hot drink and a piece of cake.

A Bara brith cake cut into slices and buttered on a white doily on a rainbow striped plate.

Kevin is very excitedly (and a little nervously) looking at a clock that's been brought in.

The clock is from about the 1930s.

Kevin has wound it and managed to get it chime manually. After looking at the mechanism he thinks it just needs a good clean inside!

Kevin, a man with light skin tone and short grey hair sat at a table with a wooden mantelpiece clock sat on it. The front and back are both open as he looks into the back.

The two boys at the back are both struggling with CD and DVD players!

We can never guarantee how long a repair will take. Sometimes it turns out to be a 5 minute job but sometimes it's a multi-hour project and that's when our wait times creep up.

Tim, a man with light skin tone and short grey hair, and Richard, a man with light skin tone and balding light grey hair, sit behind a table. In front of Tim is a silver CD player and in front of Richard is a black DVD player. Both of them are working to fix the relevant items and looking a little frustrated.

@RepairCafe_Barry Westminster quarters on a lever escapement tambour... interesting. I'm not used to seeing that where I am in the US. Case definitely looks English. German movement?
