Caffi Caban-y-Pair in Conwy

Visited yesterday while on a lovely visit to Betws-y-coed. We ordered coffees and lunch. A club sandwich and Welsh rarebit. Great tasty food, portions sizes so good that we had to forego cake! Lovely staff, quick service, great comfy interior. Highly recommended ☺️

Great little place we only had pizza & garlic bread but they were large and tasty. The staff were very good and it had a relaxed atmosphere with the option of bringing own booze as they have no license. I popped to the shop and bought a couple of bottles of cider.

Went here many years ago for Pizza and was pleased to see they're open Fri and Sat evening for Pizza again. Friendly welcoming service and the best Pizza! Delicious food. Will definitely visit again. Cash only so be warned. ATMs are nearby

Best Brunch in North Wales - love this gorgeous little cafe! Amazing hash browns! Freshly cooked, quality ingredients and friendly staff.

We had breakfast here back in August last year. We had normal and large full Welsh breakfasts and a poached egg on toast for our elder son. The large breakfast wasn't much bigger than the normal one with very thin black pudding. The sausage wasn't very meaty, but the bread was good. The hot drinks were a bit on the small side.

As the outside seating areas in the pubs were packed on the May Bank Holiday weekend, we ordered a couple takeaway pizzas and ate them outside our guesthouse.The bases were excellent, as were the flavour and quality of the toppings. It was almost like being in Italy again.

This is my favourite place for a coffee in Betws and the breakfasts are good. It is probbly the favourite of regular walkers, cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts. It is at the Capel end of Betwys and thankfully rarely frequented by the content of tourist coaches. The staff are friendly and the quality of the food wholesome and tasty.

We only had takeaway drinks but we were greeted warmly and the coffee was very good. Seemed a cosy little place.

We visited here for brunch after spotting a couple of free tables outside. Dogs are not allowed inside and the outside tables are right next to the main road so take care if you do have dogs. The staff were nice and the food was good. I had the Welsh rarebit with mushrooms which was really nice and came with a little side salad. My partner had a cheese sandwich which wasn’t on the menu but they were happy to do for us. The prices were fairly reasonable and was just right for what we wanted.

Stopped here after parking up the top end of the village for a well earned coffee after a long journey. We sat outside as it was busy and the weather was gorgeous yesterday. We ordered a Latte and an Americano with cream. Thank you to the lovely young girl who was kind enough to go and find some cream (most cafes just say no!). Sat outside for around half an hour. We only had drinks but the food looked really good. We'll definitely be back.

Arrived for breakfast at 9 am lovely staff , super clean excellent Covid rules in place . Great breakfast good quality and portion size absolutely nothing to find fault with .

We had two lots of takeaway pizza from this cafe, and both were excellent - I have got quite seriously into pizza making in recent months, and I really rated these. Although the pizzas from Hangin' Pizza were also good, these definitely had the edge. They were also excellent value, and pickup time was spot on.

We called here for lunch, there was a family of 4 waiting at the door for a table, we stood waiting behind them, they were seated, so we stepped in and waited. The waitress walked past us a few times not even looking at us, so on the next passing I asked if she has a table for 2 please, the response "I don't believe I do", and walked off. When she passed again I asked if I could wait for a table, to which she replied "well I don't know how long it will be" and walked off again! I repeated can we wait, she shrugged her shoulders and said that's up to us, but to just come back later and see if there's a table then. Wasn't worth the hassle nor did we want to spend money somewhere like that, she carried on walking brushing past us each time, like we was in the way. Not sure what cafe doesn't have a system in place for waiting on the next available table, but certainly no way to treat would be customers. Our money went elsewhere.

We recently visited Cavan-Y-Pair and disappointed with a number of things; I found a hair in my food and the presentation of the food was poor. The service was okay but slow considering there weren’t many tables. Food is overpriced for what it is. Make sure you watch your head coming out the toilets!

Used this cafe a couple of times for morning coffee, didn’t get the chance to sample the food as they stop orders at 2.30pm and we were too late coming back from our walks! Would definitely want to try their breakfast or lunch though. Indoor and outdoor seating, very clean

A bit depressed when we arrived in Betwys Y Coed at lunch time - very hard to find a parking space and six to 10 people queuing down the roads at cafes and shops.This cafe is a bit further up the hill and was empty. We were obviously concerned as no one else was there!!Good varied snack/lunch menu. Currently served in takeaway boxes - although we sat on their tables outside. Spot on food with a healthy twist. Thoroughly recommend.

We were delighted and relieved to find this gem after a long day - brilliant pizza! Service was quick. Due to the coronavirus restrictions, it was take-away only and we were fortunate that the bench outside was available.

My fella and I had a fantastic brunch here. It's a lovely quirky place with friendly staff. We both had the cooked breakfast which was fab, the toast was like a door stop!!! But all freshly made, set us up for the day. Will definitely be calling back, when we're next around.

Light crispy pizza that has a lovely choice of topping. We went as a group of 7 (4 adults, 3 children) and loved it.

Visited, as local, we are often in Bettws.Cafe almost empty. Placed order for food and drinks of Tea. CASH ONLY, NO CARDS EXCEPTED. Cafe filled up. Patiently waiting.. All other later arrivals received their orders. We only got our drinks. Waited for a total of 47 minutes.!! Still NO food. Received apologies as Owner tried to find our order slip, under about 17 slips. Would have preferred our food than apologise,as diabetic. (had not informed Staff as Private and Confidential info really).!!!Plus I was going Hypo.!! Far better eateries in Bettws with dedicated, efficient Staff as it turned out the waitress 'FORGOT' !! to pass our order slip to kitchen.!! Diabetics be warned. Enough said. Will not be back.

Shame as usually really nice.Staff dont seem to have customer service. New till system being installed on the day - all you could hear in the cafe was the staff loudly having training. My order was incorrect but I advised them behind the counter and the waitress hand gestured for me to fetch it back to her. Wint be rushing back.

Nice little cafe, we only had tea though. Cash only, clean and friendly. Mind you head when you go to the WC though!

Lovely food, been here a few times over the last couple of years and the standard doesn’t change. Good quality food and a reasonable menu range.

What a struggle to get breakfast TA places showing as open we’re closed.You can see Caffi but can you park we drove up and down.Parking is available across a bridge pay and display plus the Caffi does not take cash so got to find a dispenser at the localChippy.When we eventually arrived ordered two full breakfasts the quality was very good.2 back bacon rashers black pud sausage beans 2eggs tomato toast a couple of mugs of tea The food and service were excellent and friendly.Was worth the effort.

Do you like pizzas, then be sure to go to Caban y pair at the weekend as they really are the best we've tasted outside of Italy. Cash only and bring your own wine but don't let that put you off this really is a treasure.

Good quality food, nice surroundings... delicious mushrooms! Friendly staff, Vegetarian options - yummy.

Perfect little stop for a cuppa and a slice of cake; Homemade cake might I add, which was incredible! My only regret is that I had eaten lunch before I arrived as the food looked amazing and was great value! Really fantastic service too.

Nice breakfast in a small, characterful little cafe. Pleasant staff and good value for money, I thoroughly recommend their veggie breakfast ! Only complaint is that you have to risk your life to get there thanks to the psychopathic drivers on the A5 !

Gastvrije ontvangst, ondanks dat we niet gereserveerd hadden werd een tafel gedekt. Het eten was uitstekend van kwaliteit en hoeveelheid. Heerlijke lamschotelsvan de grill en uit de oven. Jammer dat de bediening niet op de omvang van de gasten was afgestemd. Met name het afrekenen duurde erg lang - 20 minuten na verzoek-. Aanrader!

Six of us stopped in (2 mums and 4 teenagers) for lunch and mnaged to find some seats - it's very small and cosy but worth a wait! We had soup and sandwiches and the bread was so fresh and delicious. It cost about £18 for 3 sandwiches and 3 drinks. A great find!

This is the best pizza I had in betws-y-coed, fantastic service and our daughter loved it as well. We were sightly flummoxed that in 2019 there are still restaurants like this that take cash only. I can understand it for a coffee and a cake but for a meal for three it's a bit much! Also Pizza only available on Friday/Saturday, but we went on a Sunday and they were still serving. Fantastic value for money pizza though!

After walking round in pouring rain we were all in need of a bit of comforting food,lovely lady found seating for six of us,we had fresh made sandwiches and lovely home made soup really hit the spot,prices very good and a very good hot coffee to finish off.

Don’t get me wrong food was good but the customer service was horrendous.

Me and my good lady visit the town weekly and this is a great place to get a really good coffee, they serve Italian Illy coffee and its amazing, being a coffee snob I really am fussy, but this here is superb.

Visited last week , food was great , hot and a decent portion , staff were friendly and I would definitely recommend a visit :0)

We came here for lunch. Me and my husband had the breakfast which was amazing lovely fresh local ingredients and our daughter had the children's ham sandwich again with lovely local ham which she really enjoyed. We would highly recommend this cafe.

First visit. Popped in for coffee. Very clean good service . Coffee lovely and so was the cake. Other peoples meals looked good too. Cooked fresh and cakes homemade

We popped in and luckily they had a table. Staff really friendly and great service, very quick. We ordered a tuna pizza and chips and it was honestly one of the best pizza we have had! Absolutely lovely would definitely recommend this place. Atmosphere is lovely it’s only small but lovely little tables to sit at. You can bring your own alcohol for a fee of £1 a person which is a great idea. All in all a lovely place to eat.

Great authentic tasting pizza at a good price. Quite a small place, we booked a table which is recommended as can't seat very many at time. Its also a BYO, which is great for having a jolly old time on a budget.

We regularly go here as it is not as jammed as some of the more central eateries in the village. Seating and decor can best be described as rustic although they do have a Bose sound system! Pizzas are on a bar although a more limited selection than the hugely popular Pizzeria on the green with a quant ie. small side salad and volcanic ally hot mini almonds to start.

It's a lovely, cosy place. Good customer service. Though it's cheap, you get really good pizza(one of the best I've ever had). You can bring your own drink(they will charge you extra £1/person, no matter what you bring...such a good idea, isn't it?!)

My wife and I only popped in for a hot drink. It's a lovely little cafe with good service and the decoration is very colourful, great.

Called in for lunch and had a toasted BLT, skin on fries and a Welsh rarebit. The food and the coffee were all lovely and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Very nice little cafe

Found the staff very rude and not welcoming, based on this decided not to stay and found somewhere that much more friendly and welcoming

Given the effort that most other cafes and restaurants put into their offers these days i found this place a bit underwhelming. Sometimes you just want an average cafe and this would fit the bill except the prices are a bit too high. Nothing wrong with the food just expensive for what it was. The staff werent particularly good and seemed confused by their own till system. One girl made the other waitress take our order and then stood over her telling her what to do - do your staff training in your own time! they then forgot our drinks order. Forget it i'm not going back.

Had lunch here twice, brie and apple panini was very tasty, ham and cheese sandwich not as much. Nothing special, but cute and wide menu variety

We drove randomly through the Welsh countryside and stopped to take in the villages charm and get a better (photographic) look at the running through river. Since it was lunch time and we are vegan, we looked but didn't expect a decent place, when we saw Caffi Cabany Pair. The soup tasted home made, the chips where chunky and hot and the veggie Sandwich just what we needed. We had tea to warm us up and it was just perfect! Stop if you pass through Betws-y- Coed.

We arrived early for a hearty breakfast before heading up to Zip World Fforest.

Dropped in here for a small snack cum lunch. It was basically sandwich with a side dish and a nice latte.

My friend and I visited on the 24/01/19, for lunch and a drink.

We have visited here on a couple of occasions over the years and have never been disappointed. This time was no different. Friendly lady took our order and the bacon sandwiches were delicious. Clean throughout, including the toilets, we will keep coming back.

What a great little cafe. Had a super breakfast here very early on a Sunday morning whilst my boys were climbing Snowdon on a charity gig. Excellent ham and mozzarella pannini and the coffee is very good. Not expensive.

The food here is below average. Portions are tiny. But the bread was good. The toilets stink and are dirty. The whole place is rather underwhelming considering the setting and price.

This place was recommended to us and we were not disappointed. Lovely freshly made pizzas. Take your own booze which makes it a really cheap evening.

An annual trip to Betws y coed always includes breakfast here!. Friendly staff, good service, great bread, belly buster is recommended! And tea in proper mugs...

We thought this place looked cosy from the outside, having walked past it a few times during our holiday, so we went for breakfast. This included an adults breakfast with coffee, a child’s breakfast with juice and mushrooms on toast with a mug of tea. All of the drinks were fine, but there was a little wait for the food - the mushrooms on toast were gorgeous, and the kids breakfast fine, but they forgot to add the sausage to the adult breakfast, and whilst it was noticed and one cooked, it didn’t come out until after the rest of the breakfast had been eaten. We also used the toilet, which we wished we hadn’t. There is one toilet so I had gone in, and my son ended up waiting in a small dark corridor (there was no light). The toilet itself was quite smelly with the loo roll being stored on the floor - not great!

We visited the Caffi Caban Y Pair this evening, and the service was very fast and friendly. Drinks, a small salad and chunky chips were all fine, but when we started eating the pepperoni pizzas me, my wife and our 10-year-old son had ordered, there was a problem - the pepperoni sausage they had used was so fiery, none of us could eat it.

We wanted to have something to eat and decided to stop at this lovely village, the views are amazing but we were hungry so took a wonder and found this little café. They managed to accommodate the 6 of us and we were not disappointed with the Big Breakfasts that we all had. Superb food and certainly filled us up until late evening. Highly recommended, very friendly staff

Lovely family lunch, bread and ingredients all the highest standards.. lots to choose from for the kids. Definitely will visit again.

We popped in for lunch. Nice menu. You can only pay with cash but cash point is just across the road. Had lovely sandwiches and drinks.

We had dinner here on 3/8/18. They are not licensed but you can bring your own bottle of wine and they only charge £1 per head. (there is a Spar 50 yards away open till 22.00hrs to get your wine). Now for the food. The pizza's we had were just like we have had in Italy, fantastic!!! They are thin and full of toppings whichever you chose. This was recommended by Jackie at the Bod Gwynedd B&B.; Excellent pizza's!!!

We have visited Caban y Pair on several occasions. It is always a joy. Lovely home cooked food in a nice relaxed atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. Homemade cakes are always a bonus. We have also been on a pizza evening. Perfect handmade pizzas. Fresh, hot, delicious! Can’t recommend highly enough! This little gem has been in Betws for nearly 30 years and it’s not hard to see why!

Do all sorts, lovely staff! Clean toilet and very pleasing interior. Though the space is small, the place attracts a lot of people, the food is amazing and very well done. We love coming here for a snack or a meal.

Nice little casual spot for a solo dinner - ordered a pizza and a salad for £12 and both were decent for the price. Service was a bit slow but apart from that was lovely!

Called in here for a bite to eat at lunch time. None of the waitresses had a smile or cheery greetings. The food was OK. We sat across from serving station. I was alarmed to see that whenever they served a piece of cake they picked up the knife that they put on the plate by the blade! Simple solution. ..put the knives in the recepticle blade first. Also whenever they served a latte there were drips down every glass. .. re training required!!

First of all credit to having a bilingual menu! Lovely small cafe that offers a wide range of hot and cold drinks and varied lunch menu. Delicious cakes such a scones, bara brith, etc complete the menu. Quirky interior that sets it apart from usual cafe you'd expect. He is iawn!

Had scrumptious pizzas and salads with happy service and happy customers on our visit. Bring your own bottle in the evenings and the cosy, vibrant interior added to a real sense of camaraderie! Lovely evening.

The only disappointment about this place is that it’s only open from Thursday- Sunday... A really good authentic style pizza for a very reasonable price.

Cadre agreable. Intérieur sympathique et service de qualité. Cependant la quantité n'est vraiment pas au rendez vous. Il ne faut pas avoir trop trop faim. OK pour un break. Mais par contre rien à redire sur la qualité des produits.

Visited this cafe two days in a row I was so impressed with their service and catering for gluten free. I managed to have a full breakfast, expect the sausages, which were replaced with fried potatoes without argument. They provided gluten free bread as well. Extremely impressed with the service and how welcoming each member of staff was on both says I visited.

Stopped with friends for a snack whilst in the area. No frills, small basic cafe but excellent sandwiches, cakes and hot drinks. Well frequented by locals and visitors to the area. Back to basics but enjoyable. FYI no dedicated car park, cash only payment.

We always visit here when we go to Betws y Coed simply because the food and service is excellent and the staff are very helpful.

My wife and I visited the restaurant while staying in the location. The restaurant is a no frills type with no alcohol licence but you can bring your own and pay a small charge. No credit cards are accepted so only cash however good value inexpensive meals, but the service was a bit slow.

Whenever we go to Betws y coed we love to go to this cafe. We don’t live that far away so occasionally go to Betws. The cafe is quite small but we nearly always get a seat. We often opt for the toasty meals and last time I went I enjoyed mushrooms on toast which was really good. Very friendly staff and very clean inside. Remember to take cash as they don’t accept card.

The best breakfast ive ever tasted,,belly buster is a must worth every penny :O this is the best brekkie in north wales

Just stopped in for a cuppa but so glad I had some bara brith with it! So light! Nice decor with a homely feel.

This place has a very warm feel to it. Lovely interior, excellent and efficient staff. The lady at the till (I assumed was the owner) was ever so polite. The cooked breakfast was beautiful, the best around! One definitely for a future return. Diolch.

The food is excellent. My absolute favorite is the mushrooms on toast. Superb! Very nice staff, comfortable atmosphere.

As always, pizza was as good as we remembered! We had hyped this place up to my parents, who when with us this time insisted that we visit, they were not disappointed! We had 4 pizzas to share, 2 garlic breads and 2 salads and left very full. Still cash only, not a problem if you know before hand, and bring your own alcohol is spot on! Please do not change a thing! :)

Great place to eat. The breakfast was amazing as was the coffee. The children really enjoyed the milk shakes as well.

I love this little place. My wife and I have been here on each of two separate visits to Betws-y-Coed, and we've loved it on both occasions. It's a simple cafe offering hot drinks and tea-time snacks. It also offers light-bites, if you want them.

Lovely pleasant café whilst out walking. Good service, Worth a visit. Reasonably priced, clean and tidy. Dog friendly.

Muy buen lugar, muy cerquita del puente, nos deleitamos con unos ricos tes con tortas galesas exquisitas, excelentes precios y muy amena atencion, recomendable.

We had a snack at the cafe and really enjoyed the sandwiches. The service was excellent and the food was very tasty. Lle gwych am bryd o fwyd - llawer o ddiolch.

The soup and sandwich deal is good value and very tasty. Reasonably priced and friendly service. The cafe is clean and nicely situated in the town.

Called off here for some refreshments and we had tea and scones. It was mid morning so was nice and quiet but within half an hour it soon filled up. Nice clean little café with a friendly waitress and very reasonable too. It opens some evenings serving pizzas.

We have been many times to Caffi Caban as the pizzas are excellent, reasonably priced in a casual atmosphere. Only down side is the limited time they do evening food and even less so in the winter.

This is a very busy but well manage cafe. We saw it was quite full from the outside but popped our head in to ask if there was a table for five. A family were just leaving so they cleared and cleaned the table for us.

We stopped here for lunch and had a really lovely meal, not expensive but good home cooked and fresh food. Polite and courteous staff and a nice friendly atmosphere amongst the customers. We will be returning.

If you want a nice snacky lunch, as we did, then this is the place to visit. Good coffee, good food and friendly service. And the portions are pretty sizeable.

For us this was the perfect breakfast. You have to take a seat then go to the till to order. It can get a bit cramped as its only a very small café. Tea and coffee was extra and not included with the meal. Everything was cooked to perfection. What more can you ask for. It was beyond my expectations.

Hubby and I went here for an early lunch on Wednesday. It is CASH only but there is an ATM machine just across the road by the chip shop. We ordered and paid at the counter. It cost £13 in total. We had a pot of tea plus a pot of hot water. Hubby had 2 sausages cut in half on a white bread sandwich. I had 2 eggs on a multigrain sandwich. We shared a bowl of thick cut chips which were nice and hot. Their menu consists mainly of all-day breakfasts but they also offer a few specials (details written on the blackboard). The 2 members of staff were very pleasant.

Appalling service. Just walked into the cafe at 4.30pm asking if they were open for drinks. One young staff member (dark curly hair) had disgusting attitude and clearly didn't want to serve us. She then laughed as we left the cafe.

This was one of the few places open after 3pm on a Thursday. It wasn't our first choice but thought we would give it a go. When we walked in there was a man and woman behind the counter who completely ignored us. We stood in front of them for about a minute and they just continued to ignore us. We sat down on a table - all tables filthy and covered in plates and left over food. Both went into the kitchen and didn't come out for about five minutes so we just left.

We ate here twice whilst staying in Betws-y-coed because it was so good. Freshly cooked pizza, take your own booze, can't wait to go back.

great breakfast. visited as a last minute decision before a long car journey . talk about value for money!!have recommended this place for breakfast many of times since!

Young girl who served us did not speak at all. Very rude, no smile. Such a shame as food was amazing. Been visitors here for years, this has really put us off visiting again.

Perfect pot of tea with extra water to top up. Very nice. Ordered jacket potato & a panini. The food was both hot and tasty. Now the grumble the coffee was very weak, I would guess just one expresso in a large mug. When my wife expressed a concern the coffee was to weak. We were charged extra to correct it. Not good customer service on the coffee front.

We visited on a Sunday morning and had the place to ourselves. Very friendly staff and a good menu choice. Nice to see they do kids breakfast options too. Our 11-year-old happily tucked into a full Welsh which he announced was 'absolutely delicious' (see photo). Good coffee too which was sooooooo needed after the instant offerings in our hotel! Well priced too, breakfast for three plus extra rounds of toast, coffees and juice came to £20.Worth noting that they only accept cash, no cards.

Went as spur of the moment. Arrived early on a Saturday evening and managed to get a table. Bring your own meant we nipped for a bottle of wine before we sat down. Service charge of £1 each for bring your own. Great tasty pizzas. Relaxed atmosphere. Great place.
