A superb value, family-run cafe situated just a stones throw from Caernarfon castle, located on the popular Brailsford Way 50 or 75 mile signposted road cycling route made famous by Team Sky.

You’ll find all your usual cafe staples including a full or small Welsh breakfast, breakfast butties (sausage, bacon, egg or a mixture) or their ‘Big Bertha butty’ (with two of everything), sandwiches, paninis, soup, jacket potatoes and toasties.

There’s a small number of tables outside, step inside and on the counter you’ll also find a small selection of homemade cakes alongside freshly ground coffee.
