No. 46 Coffee Shop in Gwynedd

Lovely coffee shop, friendly staff, lovely cakes including plenty of gluten free cake options. Would highly recommend a visit

We called in at No 46 on our day out at the coast last Friday. We opted for their cream tea for two, although the rest of their cake selection also looked very tempting. We were rewarded with a couple of huge scones, with sufficient jam and cream, and a very generous pot of tea. Well worth searching out if you're in Criccieth.

Called in here for a mid morning coffee, a lovely place, plenty of room good service and an excellent coffee. Many thanks

Popped in doing Criccieth to Porthmadog walk. We enjoy a coffee stop and this didn't disappoint, fab coffee and delicious bacon roll. Just what we needed. Friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

I have used another café in Criccieth for the last thirty years, sadly now closed on the recent death of the owner so my expectations are high. They are fully met at No 46. The service is efficient, friendly and fast. The food is first class and the cakes home-baked. The fruit scone was excellent. The custard tart is highly recommended and comes with that hallmark of quality, a proper cake fork. Furnished with an interesting mix of old tables and chairs but is certainly not over-crowded; you never feel you are a part of anyone else's conversation. Good use of daylight and artificial light and a High Street (Strydd Fawr - hope I got the spelling right!) frontage adds to the pleasant relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended.

On a wet Tuesday we went here with our dogs and had a treat! We took the only dog friendly table in the window. Friendly staff. Lovely milkshake. Great jacket potato, loads of tuna! Meat feast toasted sandwich was lush! Reasonable prices. Would go there again.

We went to the cafe for a cake and a drink. There was a lovely, welcoming atmosohere and a comfortable place to sit. The staff were very friendly and had a chat with us. There was no rush to order and this was lovely. We ordered and the food and drinks arrived quaickly. Everything was lovely and fresh. The cakes were amazing, clearly home made and the portion size was perfect. We will certainly be visiting here aging!

We called into No. 46 for coffee and cake and were greeted with a very warm and friendly welcome. Both had cappuccinos, which were lovely. The sticky toffee cake and the cheese scones were absolutely lovely - the latter being the best I have ever tasted! I bought some to take away! We would both thoroughly recommend a visit to this coffee shop and will call again next time we are in the area. S & N ps. I also had a peek at the next tables lunch - that looked great too!

Been recommended. But totally disappointed. As we had the dog. I Asked if they where dog friendly. That table in the window. No where else. As someone was sitting there. So light heartedly, said so thats a no then. Thats it . So remained polite, thank you. Returned with a cold glare and a shrug. Poor customer relations

Lovely friendly coffee, tea , breakfast and light lunch place. Coffee was very good. Nice scones too! Quiche looked delicious but didn't try any. Dog friendly (single large table beside the window). Great addition to this small seaside town

Had a lovely meal today. The quiche was the best we have eaten for a long time. Backed up by a latte and a pot of tea which was delightful We both enjoyed our meal. Very friendly staff . Very clean premises.

Excellent lunch and friendly service would highly recommend them if you are ever in Criccieth all food is homemade

Came here for breakfast. Had cheese scone with bacon and fried egg as it was a bit different. Also had a slice of egg custard to take away. Cute place that is very popular.

Managed to finally visit, as normally we have dogs and the dog table is often taken up by people without dogs. We have been going past for about 3 years. So being dog free, we popped in and had lunch, my husband had the pizza panini and I had the Bacon and brie, food very tasty and we enjoyed the coffees. Like to say we will be back, but we will have the dogs and the chance of getting that table is slim😁

Food and service always excellent as is the atmosphere and we can definitely recommend the deep dish lemon meringue pie and the egg custard tart - superb!

On the main High street, friendly attentive staff, hot drinks and food. Reasonably priced. One of the best cafes I have used for a long time.

We are on holiday in Criccieth and called in for lunch as we needed somewhere that did gluten-free options. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The mushroom soup was delicious, I had mine with a cheese scone. We both then had the gluten-free orange and almond cake which was really good. Great decaf coffee as well.

Delicious home cooked food - the quiche and soup were both delicious. The scones were also the biggest we have ever seen in a cafe and we all enjoyed them! Despite it being a very busy Easter holiday lunch time, the whole experience was enjoyable, with friendly staff and excellent service. We would definitely return on our next holiday. Thanks very much!

A Nice cafe with Excellent Service from the Owners and staff ,we had a Lovely quiche and Salad followed with Scone and a nice hot Cup of tea and coffee ,Highly Recommended

First time in the place but it’s not going to be the last fantastic service and food and we would recommend to anyone in the area it’s on the main road in the town with on street parking close by and around five minutes from the rail way station.

Excellent. Lovely fresh food. Friendly service. Very cleanGood choice of food on the menu.look forward to returning.

Popped in here with my mum as we were passing through the area. Lovely coffee shop with lots of home made goodies, cakes and quiches. Excellent service from friendly staff. Wish I could transport it to Cheshire so I could visit more often!

A delightful little cafe, selling a good selection of homemade cakes, and food. Staff very friendly and helpful.

The staff are fantastically friendly and helpful and the food is excellent.. The best place in Cricieth to have something to eat. Thank you to all the staff.

Good friendly service in a very pleasant venue, nice menu selection for breakfast, and good coffee, all together a great place.

We chose not to eat in our hotel and had a lovely breakfast experience at this coffee shop on the High Street. Very welcoming and good quality food. I would recommend.

Awesome breakfast and coffee/tea. Visited here and had a cracking breakfast....... . Breakfast bap and cheese scone with bacon and egg lovely coffee and cheese. And they are dog friendly too.

Number 46 is a friendly, and laid back café with efficient service and lovely food, at a very fair price. Recommended.

Definitely recommend this cafe. Had lunch here - quiche was delicious, as was a toasted sandwich. Both served with very tasty coleslaw.

What a treat! Going on recommendation! Best breakfast ever!(heard a little girl say this today!) Lovely food , lovely staff ! We went back to buy quiche for our supper!

Popped in every morning for a coffee to go, and by 3rd day knew my order as I walked in. Really friendly place, delicious coffee, and food looked great.

I have probably just eaten the best bacon sandwich, served in delicious locally sourced bread, I have ever had and my husband’s bacon, brie and chilli jam panini was equally awesome. The chilli jam had a real kick which melded brilliantly with the subtle brie...

Lovely ambience, friendly staff, good food and coffee. Can recommend the home made quiche! Definitely worth a visit.

Wonderful lunch, beautiful freshly made quiche and great coffee, friendly staff and great value would definitely recommend

A friendly cafe with excellent coffee, delicious home baked cakes and tasty breakfasts. The custard tart was so good I had to return next day for another slice. The breakfast bap is fabulous value, £6.50 including tea or coffee.

The staff were absolutely lovely, attentive and made you feel at home in their pleasant little place. The food, the drinks - all delicious and fairly priced. Visited when in town for the triathlon so very much look forward to returning next year! Please don't...

Lovely young guys running the place, very impressive. Fantastic local food. No booking, first come first served, amazing turn around. Great ambiance. Try it if you can get in. It's worth the wait

Friendly staff, and a great large portion of carrot cake, good coffee 😋 seating area relaxing and warm.

On our way to Snowdonia from Pwllheli. What a find! Called in for breakfast and the premises are beautifully presented with views out the back window of the Castle at Criccieth. They have such a respect for the buildings history that they have pieces of...

We came to No 46 cafe during our stay in Criccieth, ordering a selection of drinks and cakes. We were impressed with how good the food and the coffee was. The staff were excellent too and very attentive, we’d definitely come back if we return to the area.

i saw an earlier review stating lack of vegan options and it seems the cafe has listened. Vegan sausages are now an option so we had sausages and beans on toast, which was a generous helping, and with non-dairy spread. I had a very good...

Great little cafe. Very busy when we arrived, obviously popular for breakfast. Coffee and scones, top quality, reasonable price too.

We have been here a couple of times before and looked forward to the paninis which are amazing. Sadly they were not being served as it was too early so we had the breakfast menu but we had a very tasty selection of breakfasts. Very...

Amazing food, friendly service and so welcoming. Cannot recommend this place enough. Felt guilty for ordering another brew as there were people waiting but didn't want to leave!

A warm and heartfelt welcome. Attentive staff. Fresh and delicious food, with generous portions. Not many hospitable places like this exist anymore.

Staff were really lovely and helpful, my hot chocolate came very quickly and had a generous portion of toppings! It was warm, toilets were clean and the environment was fab, would definitely recommend :-)

After look at what was available for a quick lunch we decided on No46 Coffee Shop, we are so glad we did. All the staff were so friendly and welcoming, the coffee shop had a really buzzy atmosphere. My wife had a quiche whilst I...

lovely good value meal and felt safe. Friendly staff and we did not have to wait long for the food to arrive.

Wow! What a beautiful little family run cafe! Had a really lovely coffee and cake, really friendly service, and great location right on the high street!

Although oat milk was available for tea and coffee, unfortunately there was not one vegan option on the menu. Baked potato with beans and no butter or beans on toast with no butter was offered - but to be quite honest, people don't go out eat what they can easily make at home for themselves! Although there was only one vegan in our party the rest were very uncomfortable and will not be visiting again. However, on the plus side if you are not vegan, the coffee was awesome, the food was good and the service was excellent.

Never disappoints. Always friendly. Great service and great quality food. Always a pleasure to go there.

We had popped in for coffee the day before and decided then to have breakfast before we left this lovely town. We were not disappointed, full English which included our coffee and toast, freshly cooked and hot.

Mum and I really enjoyed this box of goodies. It was great value at £10 and plenty of variety. The vegetarian sandwiches were lovely, the quiche mouth watering and the cakes freshly homemade. Will definitely order again.It cheered us both up as we sat in the garden in the sunshine to eat it!

We went on Tuesday afternoon '6th' had lunch and then cream tea for two. I drink tea but my wife only drinks coffee and same goes for my brother in law and sister in law too. They have always given either tea or coffee with cream teas until this time.They didn't charge each couple the normal £7.95 for two but instead charged one couple at £7.95 and one couple at £11.00 as two people in the group drank coffee!!We was not informed at time they would be doing this as in the past 3 years we have been coming here this is first time they have overcharged in this way. The tea room around the corner only charges £4.50 for one person cream tea with cappuccino/latte so cheaper than £11.00 for two.We also didn't get informed at time that they would be charging extra for some cheese on chilli baked potato as the person taking order just said do you want cheese on top and I thought it must be part of it so said yes then discovered on paying that they charged extra for that too when they should really state that its an extra cost.So people beware of costing so you don't get an unexpected higher bill. As much as we like the cafe we was very disappointed that they did this underhanded tactic.

Excellent food and the best coffee in this part of North Wales. Homemade quiche is the best and cakes a delicious, all home made

My girlfriend and I stopped here given it boasted real coffee. The chap serving was very pleasant and made us two really nice iced lattes! We each had a cake as well, both of which tasted homemade and were absolutely delicious! Very reasonably priced and highly recommended if you like coffee.

Dropped in whilst on holiday in North Wales - lovely staff, lovely food and good value - all that you need.

This cafe is welcoming , clean and an absolute pleasure to be in. A must is the full English Breakfast for £8 including a drink. There is a cute window seat that allows you to take your dog inside and enjoy your meal. The staff are so helpful and a delight. Well worth a visit

If there was one thing I missed in lockdown it was Cafe 46's quiche! It was worth the wait for Wales to open up! Beautifully served in a takeaway box with salad and delicious coleslaw! The bacon, brie and chilli jam panini was also amazing! Great staff too! Will be back next visit ☺

We visited the cafe on a v rare day out walking. We work long hours and like most people, have journeyed through some very difficult challenges over the past year. The cafe service was exemplary on all counts and ministered to us deeply through professional, obliging staff who took precious time to chat with us, and delicious home-made food. The cafe has a family friendly, welcoming ambience which invites natural friendship amongst fellow customers with whom we enjoyed valuable conversation. We came away feeling very grateful, enormously blessed and planning to return asap

Due to popularity we had to wait about 15 mins to get a seat but it was well worth it.Comfortable surroundings, cheerful staff and excellent homemade food. Quiche was delicious, pannini highly recommended. And don't leave without trying their cakes. And my wife says the best coffee she's had in a long time.

Our 3rd trip over 3 years and loved it. A highlight. Please visit and support them. Great food and nibbles and coffee.

We've been coming to Criccieth for a number of years and have seen this place as the number one eatery on TA for so long but never had the chance to try it as they close at 5 and we are normally out and about sightseeing during the day. Anyway we got the chance to try it and wow yes we can see why its number one. Lovely food, great staff, all tables well spaced and everything set up so well for covid. Friendly staff. We have sandwiches and toasties, really nice and good portions, just a shame they don't do evenings as we would have definitely eaten there then

We found this on Tripadvisor as we were looking for someehere for lunch on a wet weekday. Its just over a quarter a mile from the beach and due to Covid restrictiosn we hd to wait a while for a table to become free. The shop offers a good selection of lunchtime options as well as cakes and desserts.We enjoyed a good slice of quiche followed by a delicious, and large, slice of cake. Staff were friendly and very hot on cleanliness/Covid rules.

We were looking for somewhere near to our guesthouse whilst waiting for our check in time.We only wanted Cake and Coffee/Hot chocolate.The cafe was very COVID aware and we heard the staff remind customers to sanitise their hands.The staff were very friendly and helpful,they even asked if we wanted to change our cake choice when two more became available.Our drinks and cakes were excellent in size and flavour.We also noted some local crafts for sale in the cafe which were lovely.We really enjoyed our visit and told the guest house owner in order that he could recommend it to other guests,however,he already knew it was a good place to eat and drink.

Delicious food, hearty helpings, the friendliest and most welcoming service I’ve ever known. Couldn’t recommend it more! Just wish we lived closer.

Visited this morning for breakfast and coffee. Excellent service. All staff clearly very hot on hygiene. Saw constant cleaning and good social distancing. Breakfast bap is huge. It’s a cooked breakfast in a roll. Good size mug of coffee, again good quality. I bought a piece of lemon meringue pie to take away. Delicious. If passing through make sure you pop in.

Great food! Customer service is second to none. Spotlessly clean and safe under present circumstances. Highly reccommend.

Excellent Covid systems - best I have seen - clean spaced out - excellent food - cheese scones amazing and hot chocolate 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 very Accessible too

Great atmosphere, great food, great coffee/hot chocolate and great staff who are so helpful and friendly! We felt really safe and comfortable with their arrangements during this Covid season too. We come here whenever we are in the area and it never fails to disappoint.

Called in for a quick lunch, having been unable to eat at Portmeirion or Dylan’s, both of which were full.Panini and quiche were well prepared and well presented. Coffee was very good. Staff were welcoming and very pleasant. The whole place was scrupulously clean. Highly recommended for a light meal.

I have just returned from a coach trip based in Criccieth and, missing my usual Costa, I thought I would give this coffee shop a try-out. The staff were lovely, friendly, helpful and the coffee was excellent. Very happy and my caffeine addiction was highly satisfied. Thank you!

Outstanding! In every respect. Offered ice cold water on arrival because of the hot day. The home-made quiches were absolutely fabulous and the best we’ve ever tasted! The salad included home-made coleslaw which was delicious. The value for money here is very impressive and I cannot recommend the food, drink or service more highly!

Eat here with the family, had cream tea for two for £7.99 with a fabulous scone, and my daughter had coffee cake which was lovely. All are homemade cakes. The staff are warm and friendly with social distancing in place. Would highly recommend going here

Such a gem of a cafe. Plenty of space, comfy seating, delicious coffee. Beautifully, genuinely friendly, respectful staff. This was a highlight of our stay in Criccieth. I wonder if they would consider opening for wine and tapas a few evenings a week or BYO tapas offer. Criccieth needs a groovy alternative to the current dining/pub offer.

We visited No.46 on a very windy Saturday afternoon. There were 11 of us and so no mean feat to find a lunch to suit us all. A couple were occupying the large table at the back so they offered to take our number but luckily the couple were then ready to leave. The food was delicious and we tried the full range of soup (with cheese scone), BLT sandwiches, quiche, jacket potatoes and panini pizzas. The guys were so friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed a game of cards whilst waiting. Lovely atmosphere

We arrived to find the cafe full, not surprising as it serves great food served by polite and considerate staff. We turned to leave, and a staff member told us that he was pleased to see us again, and that there was room at a large table, if we did not mind sharing with strangers. We took him up on his offer. The food and drink were excellent as always, and service was with a smile.Well worth the long drive to Cricieth.

Fantastic cakes and meals served in cosy atmosphere by friendly staff. Great place to while away a rainy afternoon.

Open in February ! A blessing on bitter cold winter days when a cup of tea and something delicious is essential.

Food is homemade and excellent, coffee is superb. It's not flashy and 'hipster', it's a friendly delight with great staff and a lovely ethic. The atmosphere is welcoming and it's a really nice environment. Just great.

Enjoyed a cream tea for two today. Huge, tasty scones and plenty of clotted cream and jam. Also a really nice, welcoming environment. Looking forward to calling again soon, for lunch.

We had a lovely lunch and it was a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Would definitely recommend the cakes and hot chocolate . We and will visit again soon.

Went in to get out of the cold on a December day. Excellent food, excellent service and even the other customers were interesting to meet (they came from Porthmadog for a coffee)

Saw previous reviews, but did not go ourselves until our last day in Criccieth... Drat!! A friendly welcome and what a delicious cream tea. Large lovely scones, perfectly baked with super fruity jam and 2 pots of clotted cream... Wow! Great value too.... and comfy window seat chatting with a couple of friendly locals. Only regret was that we did not visit every day of our stay in Criccieth... the other menu options looked delicious too!Thanks for the friendly welcome and experience!

We love coming to No 46 the food and atmosphere is excellent. You are made to feel so welcome.

Stayed in Criccieth this week and this coffee shop was recommended by a local. There were 5 of us including 2 children. We found big tables to sit at with plenty of space around, a good basket of toys and books to occupy the boys, and wonderful cakes and tea-cakes all round. We liked it so much we went back again the next day! The staff were lovely and very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Had a lovely visit in Criccieth however our accommodation didn’t have coffee so this became our go to shop. Very friendly staff! Lovely food! Tasty coffee! And all for a reasonable price. One of my favourites! Will have to come back soon!

Super friendly team here, dog friendly (table by door only), we just had coffee & tea cake but menu looked good and would definitely recommend and come again!

So very friendly, lovely food - something for everyone. Home made quiche was the best. Left feeling that we had made new friends and was still 'buzzing' some hours later. How lovely to find this place. Can't wait to return and struggle over what to chose!

What a find! Wonderful welcoming atmosphere and genuinely happy, smiley staff. One look at the quiches and we were sold. Then our eyes caught sight of their cakes and pies and we couldn't resist.

The selection of home made quiche and cakes is amazing. The staff are fantastic and I can assure you that whatever you choose to eat will be delicious. The portions are huge but you just couldn't leave any of the delicious food on your plate resulting in us needing a walk afterwards to get rid of a few calories haha
