Caffi Hen Felin in Gwynedd

Excellent food, I enjoyed the Welsh rarebit with mushrooms and had an excellent coffee. It tasted all the better for having been on the circularwalk to Aber Falls and back. Served by a friendly person called Lewis.

After a long walk up to the falls and back we found this little gem of a cafe. Lovely food , very friendly welcome - couldn’t ask for more. The best omelette I’ve had for years ! Will certainly be calling in again when we next visit.

We stopped in after a walk to the Aber Falls. A review mentioned it did a great Welsh Rarebit, and I wasn't disappointed. I also enjoyed an amazing brownie. The staff were very friendly.

Parking very limited but we luckily had a place outside, as it was early afternoon on a weekday with hardly anyone around. Clean and tidy and quiet inside, and a few people in. Omelette was lovely as was the delicious home-made mushroom soup and the tuna panini. The toilet had a child seat for younger children to use. There was a highchair. Around the walls there were info boards giving information about the nearby Aber Falls. We got talking to the owner who was very interesting and it was inspiring to hear about his ideas for the café, in particular including farm trails, added parking and outside seating, so I hope it all works out for him. It was great to find somewhere off the main road.

We dined here for lunch and the food was fresh, tasty, the coffee was great and the staff were lovely and welcoming. Would recommend for anyone passing by!

A hidden gem, the Bara Brith was to die for, the staff were friendly too. Looking forward to bringing my Mum next time we’re over that way.

Very handily placed when visiting Aber Falls. Very welcoming cafe, the service was excellent and the coffees we ordered delicious

Both food and service were excellent. Very friendly and helpful staff. I would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Service and food amazing. Definitely worth stopping at if in the area or walking to Aber Falls. You won't be disappointed 🤩

We popped in for breakfast on the way back from Anglesey. Well completely understand all the 5* reviews and they get another one from us. Choice of food good, very dog friendly and a really great friendly welcome. Altogether a fantastic find and will pop in again on our next trip to Anglesey.

Stumbled upon this little place when we were struggling to find anything open. The atmosphere was more than inviting and the staff were just fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble and they treated us so well; our children were catered for and even our dog had a treat under the table. Would highly recommend :)

Called in for breakfast here in the lovely Abergwyngregyn village. Staff friendly and helpful. Really nice breakfast with hot tea. Coffee also good. reasonably priced. We will call again soon.

Visited here after a lovely walk up aber falls .beautifully clean cafe with friendly staff and a great menu.Chose the welsh rarebit with mushrooms which was absolutely fantastic , and great value for money, would totally recommend this cafe and looks very child friendly

Real diamond, superb home made food, we had soup and the best Welsh rarebit. Thoroughly recommend, was worth waiting until after the walk as the pace gave you a warm hug!!

Lovely location situated only a short walk away from Aberfalls with reasonably priced and delicious food. Staff are attentive and really friendly. There was a good range of gluten free options too which was helpful for us! It's not often you find a decent coffee out of the city but this is one to come back for.

This was just super, we had been on a walk to the falls and back, so was time for a Drink& snack, well the snacks, wife had a Bacon Bap, and me a sausage Bap, they were really good, lovely coffee 7 tea, and staff so nice, was very busy, but service was very good, glad we stopped here

Great food, simple menu done really well. Friendly service, lovely relaxed atmosphere. We live locally and can always depend on Caffi Hen Felin for a treat. Best coffee around.

Stopped in here before our hike up Aber Falls, because of all the good reviews. The gluten free sandwich was delicious, as was the soup of the day. The dog was very welcome. The owner was friendly and approachable, and even gave us tips for our hike!

Lovely cafe just round the back of the village and on the way to / from the Aber Falls car parks. Lovely chap running the place, good quality food and good atmosphere. We ate twice there! Also open late on a Sunday....if the sign in the window says Open....they are!!! Well worth popping in!!

My wife and I called in after reading a great review in the Daily Post and sure enough it was great! Very pleasant and helpful owner and lovely food. Definitely recommend and be visiting again.

The café is in an old water mill on the road just off the A55 leading to the Aber Falls and is convenient for walkers or motorists wanting a bite to eat. The menu is simple, popular dishes which are freshly cooked and delicious and the premises light and clean. The owner and staff are welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for them.

Called in here after a good ramble up to the falls. Nice selection of food & drink. Service was a little slow, but the food was plentiful & tasty.

Good food. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Visited while on a cycle ride along the coast on NCN 5. Well worth the diversion to see the falls.

The perfect place to have a breakfast, brunch, lunch or just a coffee and cake. The high standard is a constant with the delicious meals always served by friendly helpful staff. A wonderful immaculate little cafe , the best in the area.

Another excellent lunch! Lobscouse! What a lovely cafe this is. Spotlessly clean, with lovely friendly staff and a very warm welcome.

What a great cafe and really friendly owner. The food is fantastic and the owner is a genuinely welcoming chatty guy with an amusing wit and personality. Dog friendly and great food with a good walk just across the road via the Aber Falls. Both...

Nice little cafe for tea & cake after a walk. Most of the items are home made & the ones we tasted were delicious. Well worth a visit Very friendly too :)

After walking up to the Falls and taking the long route back we were very hungry! Leek and potato soup and a panini sorted us out. Very tasty! And good service! Hope they get that tap fixed though, I nearly got a shower!

Stop here whenever we are setting off on routes to Aber falls or the hills around them. Friendly, family friendly and really nice hot food and cakes. We’ll worth a visit.

The service is nice and the workers are so kind to you and the food tastes amazing whatever it is you order they offer you a sausage if you have a dog, it is very clean and kid friendly.

We stumbled upon this on the walk back from Aber Falls to the village. Lovely food (all day breakfasts/ welsh rarebit), lovely, helpful staff and fantastic dog sausages - we all loved it! Thank you.

Have been here several times and it has become our go to place for cake. We have always been warmly welcomed and the food and drink have never disappointed. Whatever you have to eat (Welsh rarebit being especially good) make sure you leave room for...

Very warm welcome. Excellent range of choices for home-made Gluten-free food: Panini's, jacket potatoes, scummy cakes. They also have gluten-free bread but they recommended the panini over the bread. We had cheese, ham and pineapple paninis made with a quality cheese and real ham. Came with salad, including the best coleslaw we've ever eaten. Normally I hate coleslaw but this was scrumptious. They are rightly proud of their coffee - cappuccino was excellent. We only had room to share one slice of gluten-free cake, but it was scrumptious. Highly recommended. Wheelchair accessible, but be aware there is only very limited parking at the café itself - 3 parking spaces one of which only suits a small car. But most visitors will likely park in the village car park, especially if they are walking to the waterfall.

Lovely warm welcome, best homemade food ever- totally delicious and really dog friendly ( can’t remember getting a more lovely reception) . Do not miss an opportunity to go here.

We stopped here for lunch before tackling the Aber Falls walk and we were very happy that we did. The cafe is clean and well decorated with local information on the walls. The staff were very pleasant and the food was a reasonable price, prepared quickly, looked good and tasted great. I highly recommend stopping here for lunch whether or not you're going to the waterfalls as it is only seconds off the A55. Watch out as it gets busy at lunch time and only has a few tables, people seemed happy to share a table where there was space, so dont be afraid to buddy up.

Almost parked at the bottom of the village and visited the other cafe which didn't except dogs in. Luckily we spotted this place which was ace. The food was fantastic and excellent value for money and the staff were so helpful and polite and informative about the falls and how to get there. The path from the main road does need more signs to the falls and so do a signs to this cafe, as everyone needs to find their way to both!

Lovely, clean cafe. Friendly staff great choice on the menu. We had coffe pot of tea, I had a tea cake and my husband a breakfast bap. This set us up for our walk. Thank You Will be back! Bonus has vegan options

My adult kids dropped my wife and me off at Caffi Hen Felin before taking a hike of the area. We enjoyed tea and sandwiches as we awaited their return. As it approached the cafe's closing time, our kids were still hiking. I asked Aziz if it was ok if we sat in our car in the parking area but Aziz insisted that we sit with him in the cafe. He made us more tea and brought out shortbread cookies (I think) and we had a very enjoyable conversation. A little time passed and a friend of his joined us. Eventually, our kids did return, and he made MORE tea and brought out some finger food for them, as well. Aziz and his staff were so hospitable and the food was so delicious, it absolutely made our day. And how that several weeks have passed, we are back home and reminiscing the highlights of our 3 week vacation, our afternoon with Aziz and his staff stands out. We will forever associate our treatment at Caffi Hen Felin with Welsh hospitality. Marvelous food, service, hospitality, and reasonable prices at its best!

Always great food here & very helpful staff. My partner & I had a full breakfast here recently - reasonably priced & highly quality.

We are fairly local and came to aber falls for the day. We were going to bring a picnic but I was too lazy to make it so we ended up looking for a cafe. After a quick google we decided to try Hen Felin. It was a good choice! Lovely staff, friendly atmosphere and beautiful food and coffee. Will definitely return!

Great staff,served quickly and with a smile, with plenty of lovely cakes on offer. Would definitely recommend.

Great Service! Fantastic Drinks. Lovely Cakes. Simples.

We were visiting the Aber Falls Distillery and were recommended to have lunch at this café. The sandwiches were delicious on lovely fresh bread and the tea was piping hot and good strength and flavour. The added bonus being the shortbread, served complimentary with the tea, which was delicious. I am a retired Food Teacher and I am astounded at what some cafes class as shortbread. The staff were friendly and courteous. It is very good value for money. We highly recommend a visit.

Stopped off after our walk, the place was busy but the staff were so sweet and friendly. Couldn't stop apologising over a very short wait for cakes and coffee, happy to wait for the gorgeous home made cakes. Lovely staff made it!

Whenever I can, I like to visit this wonderful cafe in Abergwyngregyn. I regularly drive along the A55 and although it's about a quarter of a mile detour, it's well worth it. I'd like to review everything but the honest truth is I can only really talk about the breakfast. First off - it's all day, the best kind of breakfast in my view. Second, occasionally you might have to wait a few extra minutes, especially on busier days, but that's because it's prepared fresh, using local produce wherever possible. Third, Aziz, the owner, couldn't be more hospitable and friendly, which has now become part of the reason we go there, taking our grandson with us. He (our grandson) likes the home made shortbread (as do I) and he frequently asks if we can stop there. Great care is taken to make your stay worthwhile. It's true that parking is difficult but we've been there at very busy times and still always found somewhere to park. It's also a place that leaves you time to relax. I have it on good authority that the ice cream is pretty good too. So if the A55 is stressing you out, make a diversion and enjoy this lovely cafe.

Can not recommend this place enough. Myself my partner, my little girl and dog went to see aber falls and came across this hidden little gem so popped in for brunch. It was that good we returned for tea on our way back. Every single member of staff in there are so friendly and have a genuine interest in you! Nothing is too much for them and even the dog got a little treat. The food was amazing, and the homemade cakes were to die for. I wish we could pick up the shop and place it right next door to our house! Thank you guys

After enjoying a windy walk to Aber Falls we needed sustenance and were pleased to find Caffi Hen Felin had a table for 6. Service was very friendly and as quick as freshly cooked/prepared food can be. The full Welsh breakfast (served all day) was so good that I was unable to try the very tempting cakes on display, a good reason for another visit. The soup and a sandwich defeated both my wife and daughter, so the uneaten sandwich portions went home and were finished later in the day. Unusually, chips do not feature on the enu, but jacket potatoes do. ^ people left very well fed and highly satisfied. Thoroughly recommended.

Wonderful food, especially the home made cakes.Jenna and Tracey were a delight to talk to and very obliging. We will certainly be back!

Called in on the way back from the Aber Falls after walking there from near Llanfairfechan.

Let’s the set the scene. Lemon drizzle cake to left, coffee cake in the middle and Victoria sponge flanking the right side of table. Then the waiter, the most polite young man to have ever served me cake on the upper north Welsh coast. The tables are cosy but they make room for everyone. Factual information of the area is on the walls and you can even buy postcards.

This is a straightforward cafe which provides good basic food at good prices. We had the all day breakfast and it was fine and filled us up. The cakes looked good although we decided to give them a miss this time.

Called in for late lunch after walking in the area. Received very warm welcome. Food simple but good quality and value. We chose the Welsh Rarebit - delicious.

Great little cafe, tucked away, busy with walkers. Coffee & Bara brith was lovely & we will return. Thank you.

Great food, fair prices and friendly staff. What more could you want after a gentle stroll up to see the Aber Falls. Glad we found this little gem. The cakes and shortbread are to die for! 5* all round :)

I visit Conwy regularly and always make an effort to visit here. Everyone is friendly, the service is great and the coffee is the best ion the area. I love stopping here for brunch having been walking in the hills

Called in on way back down from the falls after walking in the hills for over 2 hours. Great selection of home made cakes etc and good coffee. The staff were friendly and efficient. Will visit again next time we walk in that area.

Lots of lovely food, freshly prepared gluten free options to many dishes friendly helpful staff dog friendly

When walking in the vicinity I had, for a number of years, never given Caffi Hen Felin a thought. Then, a couple of years ago and gasping for a cuppa after a splendid on the hills I decided to call in.

Visited the spectacular falls and spotted this cafe on the way back. A hidden gem! Very friendly staff. Lovely homemade food! Would highly recommend.

We broke down on side of busy motorway beside Aber Falls, we were in the coffee shop from 9am to 1pm, we had a beautiful breakfast and numerous refills of tea and beautiful cake. We were made feel very welcome the staff were so helpful, our phones were nearly dead as we had been stuck broken down on the side of the motorway from 1.30am till 7.30am that morning so the minute we went into the coffee shop the owner let us plug in our phones, and also gave us the wifi code. I honestly could not highly recommend this coffee shop enough from beautiful tasty food to the helpfulness of the lovely staff. Its no wonder there was a steady flow of people there all day. Thanks so much for making a really crappy horrible day a lot better for both of us. I wish you continued success you deserve every bit of it.

Having just walked to Aber falls and back we fancied an ice cream. We popped into this cafe and I had Rum and raisins flavoured ice cream and my partner had Raspberry Pavlova ice cream and they were so delicious. The best ice cream we have ever had.

After a splendid walk through the wooded valley up to Aber Falls, we stopped on our return at Caffi Hen Felin for lunch and enjoyed a delicious freshly cooked meal of Welsh Rarebit, Cheese Scone and egg and black pudding and the soup of the day. All were top-notch and to crown it all, we enjoyed a freshly baked cake with our coffee. This Coffee Walnut cake must rate as the best I’ve eaten. What a find and it’s a place I’ll be returning to in the future...you can bet your walking boots on that!

Great menu, top quality ingredients and excellent service. We were served by a young man named Sam, whose service was just superb. Dog-friendly, which is perfect. Can't recommend this place enough.

On a rainy iffy-weather day we walked a deserted stretch of the the N.Wales coast path at high tide from the Spinnies , east of Bangor to the bird hide at Aber and then inland to Yr Hen Felin . We each had a delicious Americano and shared two generous slices of excellent bara brith – moist full of fruit and very fresh – this constituted one portion. Butter to spread on it was supplied . This cost us £7 and a few pennies. Staff were friendly and helpful . Have lunched on specially made egg mayo sandwiches here before now (nothing seems to be prepared until ordered except the scrumptious range of home made cakes tempting the customers) – all the lunch dishes seem to arrive with plenty of very fresh salad . On one visit here at lunchtime I watched a family of two young people in their early teens and mum . The two teens each had home made soup and a generous chunk of bread. Mum had a huge salad dish . There was so much she was able to slip salad onto the plates of both teenagers who happily wolfed it down with the bread. That looked like a major achievement. The quality of the food meant nothing was wasted. On another occasion we arrived at this cafe well past the advertised closing time. Aziz was still there cleaning and preparing for the following day. He happily served us and there was no attempt to rush us or throw us out. When walking has taken longer than planned this is greatly valued . On our most recent wet Sunday afternoon walk we were able to take the five minute walk back to the bus stop and catch a Number 5 bus going towards Bangor and then walk a mile back to the Spinnies where we started from. Yr Hen Felin makes a great halfway house stop for walks along the coast path and using the bus service along the A55 to complete the circle.

Called in here quite a few times after walking and we are always happy. Lovely fresh, simple food for lunch. Love the egg mayo sandwiches and the tuna on chunky fresh bread. The staff are very smiley and welcoming and the café is spotlessly clean and very cheery. It shows that they work hard at making this little village café just right. The prices are also great.

So friendly. Lovely food and drinks. So welcoming and helpful a real treat. Cannot reccommend enough. Aziz and Co, thank you so much for making us so welcome.
