The Surf Cafe in Isle of Anglesey

Having tried a number of restaurants around the area, we were left overall disappointed, so we didn't hold out for anything different this time. However, we couldn't have been further wrong! The hot sandwiches were fantastic and the cakes were just lovely! A well done to the team and a thank you from us, we will definitely return.

We have been here a few times over the years for breakfast. I feel the quality of the food has dipped slightly. Now I can only comment on the breakfast as that is what I usually have. It's still a nice place to come to eat, but I just wanted to point this out.

One of several visits over recent years and has yet to disappoint. Good food, lovely cakes, good drinks. Dog friendly and great views over the beach.

Heard the food here was good, so tried for breakfast. Had a surfers breakfast and to be honest not very impressed. Watched most of it being warmed up in the microwave, nice but cold sausages, lovely bacon cooked to order, egg overcooked, tomato hardly cooked and the beans were awful tasted like cheap ones. Gave most of it to my companion. Coffee was very nice.

Really fabulous dog friendly cafe, staff very friendly. Great breakfast for humans and your dog gets their own sausage and bowl of water. Highly recommend for a visit while you're in Rhosneigr. Our dog Henry was very impressed!

We visited the Surf Cafe on a Saturday morning in February with our two dogs. The staff were fantastic and even gave the dogs some treats. We can recommend the bacon baps - large rustic baps with slices of thick, good quality bacon. Looking at the menu we’ve already decided that our next visit will be for lunch or for a drink and a slice of the amazing looking cakes.

Had a lovely afternoon here, food was absolutely gorgeous and the staff were friendly and really helpful. Made even better by the sausages the staff gave to our two little dogs. Thank you.

absolutely perfect cafe for a saturday lunch!! staff were lovely and food was delicious. highly recommend! dog friendly also

The best Panini ever Bacon , brie and cranberry 👍 If you pass though Rhosneigr and you don't stop here for food. Your missing a real treat. Absolutely coming back 😁

This is, without doubt, one of the best cafes on the island and I have been visiting regularly for seven years now. The food is excellent and the staff are always brilliant and friendly. I highly rate the surfer breakfasts (especially the veggie surfer) and always treat my friends to one when they visit. As a bonus it’s dog friendly too and the staff always give my dog a sausage. Excellent place - highly recommend.

Visited today, cafe was empty except for a group on the balcony, not surprising though as it was a cold wet Sunday afternoon. We sat down and one of the staff at the counter making a drink started coughing, granted she put her hand over her mouth but then in the next heartbeat without washing her hands she proceeded to grab a handful of marshmallows and put them on top of the drink. Safe to say we didn’t order anything and promptly left to find somewhere else to eat. Such a shame that with everything that has happened over the last few years that they don’t even have basic hygiene skills. I hope the person who’s drink it was doesn’t get ill.

Great cafe,e xcellent food and plenty of choice and competitively priced.good customer service.second visit here and will definitely return....

Really disappointing experience. Ordered the Cajun Chicken burger which is £12. The picture attached is what arrived. Not even half a bun covered. But what was disappointing was I tried to speak to the staff, I assume the manager or owner, who just argued with me that the meat is fresh from a butchers. So he has to charge what he charges. He would give me more chicken, but I’d have to pay more! 😂 No discount, refund or alternative offered, just told it’s tough. Unbelievable to pay £12 for a lunch in a cafe and leave still feeling hungry.

The table large enough for us to seat everyone was still full of food from previous occupants. Children sat down quickly as they do. Someone came out to clean it but looked like it was an inconvenience. The cooked breakfast was average. The cafe looks like it needs a spring clean. Nothing to wash your hands with in the ladies toilets which isn’t a good sign. Would not return.

Would love to visit more often, the breakfast bap is great! Unfortunately my wife doesn't go away that often so the dogs and I can't frequent it as often as I and they would like!

Bang average. Food is ok not good. Prices are a bit high for what you get. The cajun chicken burger was nice but the huge portion of coleslaw which just tasted a bit bland. Salad ruined as it was drowned in balsamic glaze. Steak sandwich...

Been here a few times. I've had the surfers breakfast each time but my boys and Mrs have had the Anglesey Burger and BLT. Always freshly cooked with local produce. Staff have been friendly and helpful. If can get busy so you may need to...

Popped in for a breakfast / brunch , the food was good but the tables needed a clean down . It’s all about standards , the food was good washed down with a latte and a cuppa .

We opted for here as notos cafe was closed Flat white more like a late and Breakfast was average at best. The place had a thick cloud of food smog so I left stinking of food for the privilege too I wouldn't come back unless...

We stopped here on our way back from Newborough yesterday, after a chilly walk through forest & along beach. Service and standard has not changed since we visited last year. My teacake, shortbread & latte were all delicious and my husbands sausage roll went down...

Traveled 20 miles to visit this café. Having previously visited in summer and had enjoyed our visit. There was only one other table occupied when we entered at 11.30am The café entrance and floor was filthy with clumps of hair and dirt. It obviously had...

I've been here a few times over the past few years and the quality has never dropped. Not only a place for a treat, but comes with a great view of the surf from the balcony. Highly recommended.

Called in this morning and had a bacon bap and a sausage & egg bap. The food was very tasty. Staff were friendly and although not cheap we thought it was worth it.

Excellent food & outstanding service. Always local & fresh, served with a smile. Really glad we made it back. Definitely looking forward to our next visit.

What an experience! I wasn’t sure if I was in a cafe in Rhosneigr or the Ritz London! I went in today for a small breakfast and it was a meal I’d never forget. I have dined the world over but never before have I...

Called in to grab some lunch. Although compact, it was light and clean.. The staff were very friendly. The menu was nice and the steak & cheese ciabatta was excellent.

Very disappointing. Warm food served on a cold plate. Take outs seemed to prioritise so a long wait for my food to arrive. The price didn't reflect the food served or the sad surroundings. Clearly not ready to reopen when I was there twice in...

Friendly cafe with a good choice of breakfast, sandwiches, jacket potatoes and cakes. Lots of gluten free options. Good for a quick stop or larger lunch. Would recommend.

We visited here twice during the recent storms. Once for lunch and the second time for breakfast- which is actually served all day. The food was delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful. They do a great range of gluten free options- including...

I am a sucker for a burger but im quite often disappointed. As this is just a little cafe i was expecting something rather average. I recieved one of the best burgers i have had in a long time and the plate was very nicely...

We had parked down at Cymyran Beach and walked along this stunning beach & through the dunes to reach Rhosneigr. Luckily this cafe was open (a lot seem to be closed in November), the coffee and homemade cakes are lovely especially the flapjack. We even...

The coffee and cake at this place is great - I'd recommend the gluten free brownie. However, the cafe is thick with food smog from cooking. It's visibly hazy as you walk in. The ventilation really needs to be improved, especially considering covid. We sat...

Lunch time drop in after a little tour of Anglesey. Small menu but nicely presented. We had the cranberry, Brie and bacon ciabatta with a side salad, tasty. Staff friendly.

What a lovely place tostop for lunch just off the beach.Smashing food nice staff,very good vfm. It's quite a small place,and they do get busy but the wait is well worth it. Definitely go again.😎😎😎😎😎

Lovely location, shame it’s staff are all teenagers not bothered about customer service. Stood waiting to order at the till for ages with no one acknowledging or asking me anything just chatting amongst themselves. When we did finally order we waited about 30 minutes for...

Really nice little place; went for little look about and could smell the lovely cooking coming from inside so we decided to pop in for some breakfast: it was busy but a kind gentleman let us share his table. Nice and friendly place. Did not...

We have visited this cafe for years but our recent visit was so disappointing .Essentially run by very young teenagers who don't even bother to greet you and none of whom were wearing masks until the person in charge appeared .The food was ok though...

Great coffee and hearty food. Always busy but the staff are young and always on the go. Typical beach place with good eats.

Found on a rainy morning to take refuge from the incoming weather. Returned every day of our break. Dean and team could not have made us feel any more welcome. Missing breakfast beers and sausages already L&F xxx

Chilled out vibe here. Staff lovely and the coffee was good. The food looked really good so will try that next visit.

Lovely cafe very clean and welcoming with friendly staff. Cakes were to die for and service was very quick and efficient and easy to register for track and trace by text message.

Great seaside cafe with friendly staff and good food. The owner is very accommodating and the have a great ice cream selection! We regularly stop in Rhosneigr and always pop in for coffee and food. Definitely worth a visit!

Breakfast rolls are amazing, great full Welsh Breakfast, love the Hot Chocolates and fab cakes. Highly recommended a visit !

Fantastic chicken fillet burger. The salad was great also. Recommend. Great staff. Did not get to try the cake but they looked good some one was having breakfast which looked great must re visit.

After a walk on the beach looking at the surfers , we popped in here for 2 hot drinks and snacks , the hot drinks hit the spot. Service with a smile , will try the homemade soup next time.

Had several breakfasts here and lunches, very dog friendly, lovely quick service and the food is delicious, can't fault it, will be returning for sure.

Had sandwiches with hot drinks for lunch following a walk along the beach on our visit here. Lovely little cafe where we sat outside overlooking the beach, in a great location. Food was all freshly prepared and nice and tasty.

Please smile when people approach the counter ! The man behind the counter seems really grumpy or maybe he was having a bad day who knows ! Anyway we had a breakfast wrap each it was tasty filling and not too badly priced , only down side the table hadn’t been cleaned and I had to ask for it to be wiped , in this day and age with covid awareness they should be more aware , the waitress seemed to huff a bit when asked. We took a cake to take away they were lovely , you could tell they had been made with good ingredients . Lovely shortbread too.

We had a lovely brunch here as a family when the weather wasn’t so good. Would definitely recommend as we all enjoyed our meals.

Nice little cafe which is dog friendly Lovely coffee and very nice breakfast sandwiches Would recommend 👍

We called in for lunch today, I had the steak and cheese Ciabatta and it was to die for. My son had the breakfast wrap too which looked really nice as well. A lovely cafe in a great spot, well worth a visit.

This isn’t really a review for the cafe but is a review for the shop downstairs. Yesterday we visited this beautiful location. We parked up and went on the beach and we said we’d come back to this cafe for something to eat before heading back home again later in the day. However, my 2 year old daughter was absolutely bursting for the toilet suddenly and I popped into the cafe/shop and the lady from the shop downstairs came up to ask us if we needed help. I asked if my daughter could possibly use the toilet and even offered to pay but she insisted that I had to walk up the street and around to the public toilets as “the toilets are only for paying customers”! My poor daughter didn’t make it to the toilet and needless to say we didn’t return to the cafe for something to eat! I just think there’s something called kindness which needs to be shared at times, especially in the world how it is today. Thank you.

we managed to get in here without a booking, we sat outside on the terrace having a lovely breakfast with a sea view on a lovely day, staff friendly, recommend.

We had a takeaway coffee in the morning, then stopped for another cuppa and cakes after a day on the beach. The staff were all friendly and helpful (I was surprised to read some negative comments on customer service) and the coffee and cakes were excellent. There is a large terrace with nice views of the sea, but as it had started to drizzle we sat inside. It’s family friendly with plenty of choice. Would like to visit again and have lunch.

After a walk we decided for a take away to eat on the beach , had the surf dog and steak and cheese ciabatta for hubby , last time I came I complained about the customer service , obviously it’s not improved much , it costs nothing to smile , the chap looked grumpy so did the woman , only thing is there saviour is the food is nice! The cakes are delicious whoever makes them , well done .

Only had snacks here but would have no problem in eating here again. Food all cooked to order by the looks of things. Staff helpful. Not sure food is available all day. Nice little terrace, but imagine in summer this is very busy.

Good food here popped in for some lunch. Had the home made soup which was lovely. Glad to know they were dog friendly and had WiFi. Only downside was woman serving us was very uninterested and unhelpful. Other than that. Great place

The homemade soups were great, red pepper & tomato, brocolli & stilton. The portion size of cake was small and the hot chocolate decidedly short on chocolate! Service was a bit slow.

Slightly disappointed. Café was closing early and it was the end of the weekend and not much choice. Coffee a little wishy washy.

Visited with our two teenage kids. Good coffee and cake. Reasonably priced. Good views over the beach and a lovely balcony. But cosy place on a cold day!

Called for lunch, 3 tables taken, so not really busy, although the service was not great, 2 adults and 3 'kids' behind the counter. The kids were more interested in chatting and getting their own food than serving customers or clearing tables. One of the adults made a deluxe hot chocolate using squirty cream and then turned to one of the kids and squirted it straight into his mouth!! That is just wrong and unhygienic. Unfortunately this will be our last visit even though the sandwich was nice, who knows what is acceptable in the kitchen if they are happy to carry on like this at the counter.

Been a couple of times a very pricey cafe compared to chaplains , the food is ok and nothing special , the soup is tasty and some of the cakes but I wouldn’t rush back . The customer service is quite lax, the man in charge looks cross and stressed , I had to ask for the table to be wiped several times before anyone came over. The breakfast is pricey compared to the golf club which has the best food in the village . I wouldn’t rush back here . I would prefer chaplins for a light lunch or the golf club .

Called in for breakfast on way home,both had the mini breakfast which was very well cooked,great ingredients. Coffee a bit bland. Biggest draw back was that the tables and floor could have been cleaner,but it was during a spell of extremely bad weather...

We've visited the Surf Cafe a number of times, either for lunch, breakfast or just coffee (cake too of course) Its non pretentious, home made, easy going atmosphere is perfect with children or dogs. Service can sometimes be ever so slightly slow, however, this is what you'd expect from home-made (if your mean comes out too quickly, the likelihood is its not home made!)Thanks Surf Cafe

What a lovely gem. Very welcoming to humans and dogs, a cute cafe and my boyfriend had a full breakfast, I had a bacon butty and a huge pot of tea to share, We will definitely recommend here. We didn’t even notice the torrential rain outside !

Huge bacon sandwich, fabulous breakfasts and food in general. Dog friendly (but not on terrace) nothing too much trouble for the staff. Very reasonably priced, will be back here again on next visit.

Service is awful, 18 minutes to get a drink in an empty restaurant, food came 10 mins later, doubt I will return

Recently home from a fantastic holiday and ended it with breakfast at this cafe. Fab place. We’re a big family of 8. The staff were friendly. The cafe was clean and the service was excellent. The food was fantastic and served so quickly. Thank you as I’m sure holiday season can be exhausting!!

Long waiting even when there are no customers and there are many slow employees - I even experienced more than customers.I just had a cake and a soup plus coffee,water dor two person and I pay 22 pound under the level of tesco.So and pay for the view from the balcony and you have to be lucky that there will be free chair...they couldn't even clean up and no reason ...Why? I don't even want the main food because I lose half a day and no smile just take your money. Services at the level of the Siberian taiga [ I have experience ]

Called in here on a trip through Anglesey. Ordered a couple of bacon baps, some toast and tea for 3. Was very shocked to be charged almost £18, worked out we had been charged £6 for one pot of tea and three cups, and only got one cup each out of the pot. So basically £6 for 3 teabags and a splash of milk. Wont be going back. Service wasnt good either. Didn't feel welcome. Dog wasnt allowed outside on the balcony but was allowed inside the cafe. Very odd.

Lovely little cafe. Beautiful home made food. Excellent service, friendly staff. Relaxed chilled atmosphere, great for anyone.

We had a lovely lunch here as a family when the weather wasn’t so good. Would definitely recommend as we all enjoyed our meals.

5 of us went for breakfast at opening time. We were served immediately. Staff were polite and helpful. Good veggie breakfast with halloumi and vegan option available. Our 4 year old had a children’s breakfast. The meat I’m told was good quality and the veggie options imaginative. Reasonably priced. The only downside was the toilet was very basic with broken tap and flush. Would visit again.

Visited the cafe for breakfast on Saturday, very busy but managed to get 2 stool on the bar table. Lovely food.

Hrmmmm I do not like giving bad reviews but this was a disappointment. The staff were distracted and only one person serving made queuing for a coffee tiresome. The coffee was very good but massively overpriced £3 for a black coffee tooooooooo much. Place need a good clean as well and the staff need to stop talking to each and friends and get on and serve people. Till has to be written out by hand 21st century this is not

Just visted surf cafe service and table hygiene was terrible.. Reading the reviews from 2016 nothing!!!!! Has changed... Not be recommending you and we will not be visting you again... The only thing that it had going for was being dog friendly

Fabulous reasonably priced full English. Great service, best sausages and dogs welcome. Lovely friendly relaxed feel.

Staff lovely. Came for lunch with friends and service was excellent as well as the food. Would highly recommend !

A lovely place to visit. Dog and people friendly and with FABULOUS Gluten Free Cakes! Relaxing, enjoyable. Loved it!

Excellent informal place for a lunch, with attentive staff and interesting menu - a great place to escape the aircraft noise, albeit briefly, from adjacent RAF Valley - deafening and way above any acceptable and measurable levels throughout the day of our visit on the coast path.

A quick breakfast before travelling home and we were sorry not to have tried the Surf Cafe before.

When we visit our holiday home in Anglesey we stopped by this cafe for a take out whilst on the beach. Yes it was slightly busy but a man called Charlie took our order of various breakfast barms , my friend behind me also ordered and we waited... and waited for about half an hour and then my Order was ready. I checked and part of it was totally incorrect, Charlie Who took our order expected me to take that full order even though it wasn’t what I ordered and he then he had the cheek to complain at me for not just taking that sandwich he even shouted at me. firstly it’s a allergy order second it’s not what I paid for. I refused to wait another minute longer and gave them the order back and was refunded with the most disgusting attitude whilst doing so. Then my friend asks Charlie where’s my order? as he still doesn’t have his 45mins later, to be told what order charlie scrambles about looking for the order ticket to be found still sat at the end of the ticket line, apparently it’s been missed it’s not even been sent to the kitchen and he doesn’t even get an apology he got nothing but “it’s not my fault just deal with it we will make it now” & as you can expect we were very upset customers and Charlie decided to shout again so we stood up for ourselves & said how disgusting it is to treat customers like this even the lady cooking was telling Charlie to calm down that’s how we know his name we got our money back and left. Then later on that day the lovely lady the owner decides to post up on Facebook a lovely post about the customers (us) who came in that day, so not only does she allow her staff to treat customers like rubbish she then goes on to try and justify her staffs actions whilst slagging us off on a public forum. So please beware of what you enter into when visiting this cafe, I would avoid at all costs, rude vile staff and owner with poor allergy skills and average food for the price

Great cafe just off the main beach. We had lunch - coffees, drinks, paninis - all were really well prepared and tasty and the bill was around £25 for the three of us. Service was excellent even though it was busy. Hopefully we will get back in to sample the amazing looking cakes before we go home!

After a long drive to Rhosniger, we decided to try the Surf Cafe. We had the beef and ale stew and our grandson had a sausage sandwich. The food was well cooked and everything was prepared on the premises. Would recommend a visit.

Superb little Cafe! A walk on the beach with the dog then approval from my 90yr old mother who enjoyed the home made soup “roast pepper & tomato. While some of the best Sardines on toast ever slipped down very nicely!

Visited here twice during our Anglesey visit. First time was for breakfast and then we also had lunch a few days later.

We eat here fairly regularly as they always have a reasonable breakfast and nice lunches. The food is always nice and not too expensive although the coffee isn’t the best.

We visited here recently on a wild and windy morning in December. I went for the Surfer's breakfast which was awesome. Nice quality bacon and the meatiest sausages I've ever had along with black pudding, beans and an egg and accompanied by a latte coffee. It was a nice relaxed place and the staff were very friendly. A great start to the day.

Good food- good choices. Cater well for Gluten free customers- thank you! Dogs welcome and thats appreciated. Cafe has a young vibe but all ages made welcome.

Food good but young staff a little take it or leave it. Room is hot when busy and looks scruffy and in need of a spruce up and clean but food is good.

This very dog friendly and relaxed cafe has a lovely relaxed vibe.

Just the place to sit with a coffe with a view over the beach.free WiFi. not eaten here but the food looks good and reasonable priced.

Visited bank holiday Monday, had to wait nearly 40 minutes for our lunch order and when it arrived it was wrong. Seemed to be a lot of young staff flapping and only one cook, overall an expensive disappointing visit

Over priced, long wait times and unenthusiastic staff, got the orders horribly wrong Adhadaadadadadaadadads

Visited as a family group of 8 and great menu for everyone. Delicious breakfast rolls and other snacks. Warm and welcoming on a wet and windy day! Will be back soon.

We had some great food and lovely coffee all served by a friendly bunch. Some great views of the beach from the balcony. We had a lovely lunch and enjoyed nipping back for ice creams and coffees whilst on the beach on our beach days. Great service by providing a very popular toilet facility for beach goers all for a coin in the honesty box.

Called in for early morning breakfast before heading home. Can’t fault it! Really convenient and cooked breakfasts and bacon baps were great and enjoyed by all the family.

Visited on a Thursday afternoon to have lunch.

Heard good things about the breakfast here so decided to give it a go on Saturday morning. Can't say I was particularly impressed, firstly I had a large coffee, which most definitely wasn't large! For food I had the surfers breakfast, all I can say is it was ok, nothing special especially considering it was quite expensive. The place has reasonable atmosphere, quite buoyant if not noisy, they do allow dogs in though - there was one in when we went and barked frequently which was a bit off punting. Service seems a bit hit and miss, the lady who took our order seemed like she was having a bad day but the girl who brought the food over was very cheerful.

Paninis were very tasty, served with a lovely salad and a few crisps. Coffee were excellent. On the dearer side for a cafe. Would definitely return.
