Lovingly renovated and brought back to life, Bryn Seion Chapel is a popular cafe just a stones throw from the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct & Canal UNESCO World Heritage site in the village of Trevor, a short cycle or canal walk from the riverside market town of Llangollen.
Inside the quirky cafe you’ll find delicious coffee (roasted by Adams and Russell), breakfast served until midday, jacket potatoes, wraps, toasted sandwiches and salads in addition to the cyclists favourites, toasted tea cake and all day sausage and bacon baps.
For those with a sweet tooth there’s fab selection of homemade cakes including their tasty triple layered coffee cake, apple pie with cream and the traditional Welsh tea bread known as Bara brith, flavoured with tea, dried fruits and spices – a must try if you’ve not sampled it before!
You’ll find plenty of seating inside the fabulously restored chapel in addition to their outside terraced area. Once refuelled be sure to walk over the aqueduct, towering 120ft high over the River Dee for spectacular views!
Inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2009, the eleven miles of canal from Gledrid to the Horseshoe Falls via the spectacular Pontcysyllte Aqueduct all form part of this breathtaking landmark and area of preserved interest. The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct was completed in 1805 by Thomas Telford and is just a short walk from the tea room.
