I had BBQ pulled pork sandwich with cappuccino. The food was delicious and coffee was very good. Beautiful view and the coffee shop has small museum downstairs. I really enjoyed the museum.

I love the decor. It is located in a tower . I got try the grilled chicken chutney. It was very different from American food. But I truly enjoyed the food and the experience. You man that took order and prepared the food was beer accommodating.

Unusual cafe in a tower. Bit gloomy unless you are in the window seats. Comfy chairs. Strange dirge like monastic church music playing. We ordered three toasted sandwiches. Two of which had the speciality chutney I have never had toasties quite like these before. The thin cheap, supermarket sliced white bread was very dried out and barely browned . Looked like they'd been done in an air fryer . One should have been on brown bread but they forgot this and did it in white bread . Plonked on a plate with a pile of crisps. The worst part was the chutney, which was nice chutney but FAR! too much on the sandwich . More chutney than filling. It totally overwhelmed the filling and was all you could taste and it oozed out everywhere. Yuk. I scraped about 4 teaspoons of the stuff out of the sandwich and it was still too much. No one asked if our food was ok. Sadly a bit of a tourist trap. Very disappointing

Such a beautiful little place to stop off for some lunch and a coffee. The view was spectacular and the service was even better! We come from Pembrokeshire on holiday and to find this little gem after a long walk around the castle was perfect!! So thank you! ☺️

Called in for a coffee at the end of the day as the heatwave broke with a storm. Fabulous little cafe with great coffee and lovely staff. On visting the toilet down the tiny staircase found the little curio museum. The skeletons of the embracing fairies, The Conwy mermaid. Worth a coffee just to see them. Will definitely be going back there. Thank you.

We popped in for lunch, the cafe staff were nice, the inside is quite small, it is literally inside the town walls. The setting and views carry this place, it’s gorgeous and one of a kind. You can sit in alcoves right by the windows which gives beautiful views over the marina. The coffee was great and the size of the food was good but it’s quite expensive for what it is. I’m not sure how the food measures up in comparison with others in the area, I’d visit for the experience of being inside the walls rather than the food/drink being the attraction.

Popped in yesterday for breakfast. Best gingerbread latte in North Wales (I've tried them all), and the most delicious bacon and cheddar sandwich, (we also brought home some carrot cake which was very very tasty). Set me up for the day. Great location & atmosphere. Warm and friendly service, also dog friendly which is amazing. I definitely recommend popping in here if you're in the area 👌

This place has been open for a long time. I used to go for coffee here as a teenager! Revisited for the first time in years, to bring my children to the Santa's Grotto event, and the place hasn't changed a bit! Small coffee house with the quirk of being within one of the original Conwy castle wall turrets. I can't speak for the food, but heard good things about it and that they have great vegan options. I am pretty sure the barista is the "Jester" of the Jesters Tower and we've seen him perform a few times at the Llangollen Faerie Festival. If so, he's great! 🧚♀️🃏 Absolute best grotto experience (we've taken our little ones for visits with Santa, across Chester, Haworth, Shrewsbury, Liverpool and various locations in North Wales. But this was the most charming of all). It looked family-run and "Santa" was great with the little ones and it was personalised for the children. My skeptical 6 year old left with no questions or doubts about authenticity, which was a first! Reasonably priced and recommended! Half off for children who go to school in the local area and Santa is bilingual (Welsh & English speaking).

We didn't eat, so can't comment on the food, just had coffee. The Jester's Tower is featured in the new edition of the Indie Coffee Guide amongst some truly exceptional coffee shops so we had high expectations. Unfortunately I couldn't even describe the coffee as "good", hence my 3-star average review. We ordered flat whites, and what arrived was not a flat white. The milk texturing was poor, the coffee tasted under extracted, far too much milk which had no sweetness, not a million miles from automatic machine coffee flavour. Stands out as poor amongst the other coffee shops listed in the guide, couldn't recommend. Staff seemed unhappy. A real shame because the coffee kit they have is fantastic, a bit of training is necessary in its use. Views from the windows were fab.

* pet friendly and expensive For the best view, consider requesting a window seat. The restaurant is a bit expensive, but it offers excellent service. I highly recommend trying their hot chocolate,it's truly delicious. Additionally, the breakfast options are ok. Do checkout the small display on the ground floor inside the coffee shop.

A fabulous location with great views of the harbour if you get a window seat. The staff are very friendly and efficient. The food is not cheap but very good value for money: I had the best club sandwhich I have ever had. High quality ingredients very well prepared. My final tip is: even if you don't need to visit the toilet it is worthwhile taking a trip downstairs ....

Hands down the BEST vegan sandwich I’ve ever had! It was a massive portion and was absolutely delicious. It was a bit more expensive than we’d usually pay back home but totally worth the price for the lovely food and great location. There’s even a little exhibit downstairs which was an added bonus. We’ll definitely be back if we visit Conwy again

Nice cafe, gorgeous deep filled sandwich’s that filled us up! Great selection of drinks. It was abit cold inside, but that’s due to the nature of the building being in an old castle turret!

Incredible Chai Latte (several dairy free milk alternatives😯 I had the oat milk). Bought Dirty Cow Vegan chocolate for a treat at home. Vegan cake Takeaway (3 choices - excellent) - I chose the Apple Crumble Cake which I'm yet to try.... Bonus points for being genuinely dog friendly with dog water and biscuits.
