We wanted a healthy lunch while having a day at in Llandudno, googled where to get a decent jacket potato and here we went. Lovely quirky tea room, odd chairs and tables and lots of lovely teapots, cups and saucers. Lovely varied menu and boy the jacket potato did not disappoint ! Lovely friendly staff and would certainly come back . Got cheese & beetroot salad with a jacket potato .. yummy

My daughter booked afternoon tea for us, as she had seen it advertised on social media. We arrived at 12.25 our booking was for 12.30. We were met by 2 ladies rearranging furniture, we said we had a booking for 12.30, 1 of the ladies looked at her watch and grunted something to the other lady. We were told to wait on the otherwise of where they were rearranging chairs. The welcome was nonexistent, I felt we were an inconvenience to them. Both me and my daughter agreed to leave and spend our hard earned money else where. I really think some people should not be in hospitality business. We won't be recommending Character Tea Room anytime soon. Very disappointed 😞

Went as part of a hen day do (no alcohol & kids present). I did arrive (with my adult daughter, granddaughter and two step kids) 20 minutes late due to a crash on the main road. The party was down stairs, no windows, air con off as were the lights (they went on shortly afterwards). Hot wasn’t even the word, it was boiling. All seats taken but we sat on a smaller table reserved for the kids. No plates, cutlery or cups on our table. Kids food arrived. It was ok. The poor waitress looked pestered so my daughter went upstairs to the main area to buy kids some drinks. She was gone ages. Turns out she was ignored by staff so went to the shop close by to get fruit shoots for the kids. Our food arrived. 3 triangle sandwiches each, a scone with melting cream & jam, a lemon cake which literally was slipping off the stand, some chocolate stars. No plates etc or tea. Again I went upstairs to ask for these. Went to the loo and the plates arrived. No tea. I ended up asking for the tea 3 times. Came to pay and I asked for the tea (or lack of) to be taken off the bill. Was told the tea had arrived? Am not in the habit of lying. Then was told tea was included in the price. Had it not been a family event I would have refused to pay. No apology. Afternoon tea- without tea….. I honestly think the party was too big for the place as I’ve heard great things about this venue. I honestly think they thought they were getting paid no matter what so it didn’t matter. Shame when it was such a special day for the family. The young waitress was a darling (she seemed to be doing ALL the work).

Had afternoon tea offer which saw on Facebook. Was value for money and I liked how you could choose your own sandwich, cake and scone, so no wastage with things you don’t like. Lovely staff, very friendly and accommodating. Would recommend and go again.

Not as good as some other reviews suggested, a lot of advertised items weren’t available. Although the place has limited opening times there were no other customers and therefore the place lacked ambiance. The staff did not really interact.

And it was very good! The place has two stages: we were upstairs and I think it’s probably the best (downstairs was reallly cold), also because you can look outside the big windows and admire the kitsch decor. The two ladies who run the place serve one of the best afternoon teas in Llandudno: the scones with butter and jam were tasteful, and the tea great. We also LOVED the Bara Brith, a typical welsh cake which was incredible. A little disappointing only the sandwich and the soup we had for lunch. Absolutely not to miss when in Llandudno!

Visited here with my mum, messaged in advance to book a table as we aren’t from the area and to ask more about the menu as I am fussy. They responded very quickly and were friendly and helpful. Had the afternoon tea and you can pick your own sandwich, scone and cake slice with a drink. The customer service was great and the food was unbelievable! We left nothing and will definitely be back in future!

Visited here with my mum a couple of times whilst on holiday in Llandudno and it’s just as we remember it! We opted for simply toast and beans on toast on our first visit followed by delicious cake! On our second visit a light lunch was in order which were really lovely. I had a ham sandwich and my mum had a ham and tomato sandwich. Both were really lovely and complimented with a lovely side salad. Now - to the main event - the cakes! We both opted for the same cake both times as they were so good! My mum had a coffee cake and described it as “proper coffee cake - how it should be!” And I had the chocolate cake. You have to try it for yourself - one of the best I’ve had! The new owners are lovely and cannot so enough for you. We can’t wait to visit again on our holidays.

Booked characters tea house last week.A lovely lady answered the phone and told me they were reopening next week so I Booked a table for 5 people .on arrival the door was locked and a lady from in side opened the door and told me that it was under new management and we was there first customers. We were shown the big table in the middle of the floor they did not rush us into ordering and a very relaxed atmosphere. Tea arrived and then the sandwiches so freshly made some of the best sandwiches I have tasted and the tea was something else.if you are looking for a nice tea room this is the place for you.

If you're looking for a brunch or lunch or afternoon tea, this is the place to go. We were a group of 6 and we'd asked at another nearby place for a table for 6. They said they didn't do them, so we left. We walked to Characters and asked if they had a table for 6. Without any hesitation they put 2 tables together and put 6 chairs round for us. We were made to feel so welcome and the food was scrumptious. A lovely place with friendly staff and beautiful food. The cakes and scones are to die for. Definitely be back again next time we're in Llandudno. Thanks to all the staff.

A lovely sandwich and an afternoon tea which was well proportioned and didn’t leave you feeling full to bursting. Food was fresh and tasty. Price is perfect and blows the socks off other places which are closer to the beach. Wonderful atmosphere, great vintage decorations and wonderful staff. What more could you ask for?? If We were on holiday here again we would be stopping in every day- it’s such a shame they are only open 3 days a week (due to family issues) but I’m so glad we got in- booked on Facebook with no hassle at all.

The food in this restaurant is simple but good. The main and overwhelming drawback is the male proprietor. We visited on Saturday 10th. September and were greeted by the unshaven proprietor with lanky unwashed hair wearing a shirt that had not seen an iron in a long time. There is casual and there is “very grubby”. He explained that his wife( and the driving force behind the business) was off for the evening at a function in Manchester, a statement that did not bode well from previous experience. The staff on duty that evening were young but “trained”.

A las 10 . 95 por persona, pensamos que era una excelente relación calidad-precio, ya que había mucha comida y puedes traer tu propio champán sin costo adicional. Incluso te proporcionan cubos de hielo y vasos!

Un café realmente lindo, lo mejor de lo que es la vajilla que no coincide, ¡cada pieza es hermosa! El personal fue amistoso y atento. El menú era extenso y había opciones vegetarianas, pero no mucho para veganos!

Reservé una mesa aquí dos veces para que se cancelen. Reservé a las 8: 30 del sábado para que me informaran al día siguiente que no tenían ninguna mesa, volvieron a reservar para el domingo para ser contactados y me dijeron que estaban cerrados. Entiendo que se cometen errores, pero que se me permita reservar una mesa dos veces y que ambas veces se cancelen es extremadamente poco profesional y de mala gestión.

Reservé el té de la tarde para mí y mi nan basado en las críticas aquí. Debo admitir que, cuando finalmente llegamos a Characters Tea House, en una pequeña calle lateral, me sentí muy aprensivo y cuando descubrimos que los baños no eran accesibles para los discapacitados y en el sótano, no me impresionó. este tema y estoy muy contento de que pudimos quedarnos. Es peculiar, pero muy lleno de carácter. El equipo es increíble y aprecié mucho su amabilidad, amabilidad y hospitalidad. El té de la tarde era casero y muy sabroso, con mucho que ofrecer, y nos dieron la oportunidad de elegir nuestros rellenos de sándwiches y pasteles. Estaba tranquilo cuando llegamos, pero se llenó muy rápidamente y noté que era frecuentada por los lugareños, lo que es una buena señal de un salón de té excelente y acogedor. Bien hecho y gracias por cuidarnos.

Probably our 6th visit here for the Saturday night Hot Stone experience. What a fantastic night it is especially as you take your own alcohol. This isn't frowned upon in fact the staff go out of their way to supply openers and a vast array of glasses. We went with friends this time who live locally and they were very impressed.

Came here for afternoon tea (at lunch time!) with my mother in law after hearing a lot of rave reviews about the place.

Some times nothing but a cream tea will do. So we find this place just off the Main Street delightful quintessential British. A step back in time. Loved the Turkish Delight Sconce (don’t knock it till you’ve tried it). A place worth a visit.

My 96-year-old auntie is in a care home in Llandudno. She had a family of Canadian relatives staying nearby for a week so they could visit her while holidaying. I was looking for a place all of us could enjoy a typically British activity. I thought an afternoon tea would fit the bill. Tripadvisor reviews for Characters were excellent so I phoned and booked. I had a query about my auntie's wheelchair and was reassured that we would receive help bringing the wheelchair up the steps. Sure enough, we were helped. The service was excellent. The food was great and very good value. The Canadian family of parents and two teenage boys all enjoyed the experience. I hadn't realised when I booked that the tea house closed at 4 but we weren't rushed at all as we overstayed by half an hour. I will definitely come here again with my auntie. It's about a half hour walk from her care home so a lovely trip out for her. Highly recommended!!

Think this was our fourth visit and wasn't disappointed. Had pre ordered 2 fillet steaks and had brought our own wine. Atmosphere was great quite busy, the staff attentive. The owner comes round and has a chat with everyone. Food was delicious presented good. My son just ordered a sandwich from the daytime menu. Ordered cheese and biscuits after was great nicely served. Whole evening was perfect will return the next time we visit Llandudno.

Called in here for afternoon tea with my husband. We really enjoyed our treat. The restaurant is comfortable and welcoming. The staff were great, very friendly but not intrusive. The afternoon tea was lovely with a great choice of sandwiches. We had Coronation Chicken and Cheese and Pickle. They were lovely. The scones were great. My only sadness is that the soup smelt so good but I was too full to try it. We shall have to go back.

We had the afternoon tea and really enjoyed ourselves. The employees were very friendly and pleasant to talk to. Coming from the U.S. and being a fan of the Great British Bake Off, I was pretty excited for my first British tea, and I wasn't disappointed.

Cosy cafe. Not many tables and can get quite busy. Staff friendly and helpful. Nice bit of music in the background. Breakfast was nice but would have been good to have the option of a poached egg. Only option was fried. Enjoyed my milkshake and my partner enjoyed his coffee. Fair value for money given the tourist area. No parking directly outside but carparks closeby and road parking a way up the road.

Tried to charge for a squeeze of Costco ketchup on my son’s chips after I spent £15 on drinks and chips. It’s easy to spend my hard earned money ANYWHERE else. Usually really like going out of my way to support local independent business that go the extra mile to attract more tourists to the area…. Won’t be coming back here unfortunately. Shame as the location is great. Perhaps this is a little petty, but I thought it just plain mean.

Nice home cooked food, friendly staff! Visited a few times now, a basis looking place but the quality and choice of good home cooked food with really friendly service keeps us coming back and recommending to family. Great value, easy access and free parking.

This is just the most wonderful place..! Afternoon tea today - their own-blend leaf tea was to die for. Best "cuppa" we've had in a long time. The fixed-price afternoon tea came with our choice of sandwich from the main menu, a choice of home-made cake, and an extremely generous portion of bara brith. scones & Welsh cakes. Do this at least once in your life. The quality is exceptional as is the customer-service - real nice people working here. Vert traditional tea-room setting - about 20 covers inside? Seating also available outside and their are quite extensive trails up & behind the property to walk off some of the carbs ;) If you're visiting the Conwy Valley this needs to be on your list.
