What a great place! Visited on a busy August day and no tables available inside but we were happy to be seated outside. Food and drinks came really quickly, very reasonably priced, portions were excellent and the food tasted amazing. We were so full we didn’t stay for dessert, opting to take some home for later on 😄 Would definitely visit again

This is such a fabulous place to have breakfast or lunch. Plenty of parking, amazing staff that really know how to treat customers and wonderful tasty food. This must have been our fourth visit. We usually go after we have checked out of our rental accommodation, but on Friday we went for lunch before checking in, so it was great to choose something for lunch for a change. I had a very tasty cheese burger, the burger comes from a butchers in Conwy, it came with gorgeous home made chips, something you don’t seem to see much of nowadays and my goodness, they were super yummy, it also came with a side salad and coleslaw. Hubby had the cold baked ham, eggs & homemade chips, the ham was plentiful and first class. We don’t normally have a dessert, but made the mistake of looking in the dessert fridge, so we both had the meringue pie which was baked to perfection, just the right amount of sweet & sour taste, plus a coffee and a coke and our whole lunch came to £40 and it was worth every penny. They have plenty of cakes & bakes as well as dessert from the chilled fridge. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. It’s always busy and has a little gift shop attached. We will be going back Friday morning after checkout for breakfast, can’t wait😋

We decided to head here for breakfast with our dog - we rang ahead and were told that dogs were not allowed inside however there is outside seating and dogs were more than welcome there. We got there and there was plenty of outdoor seating. We ordered a full breakfast and fried bread, black pudding and eggs which was slightly off the menu but there staff were more than happy to accommodate the order. One of the team came out and made a real fuss of our dog and brought some dog biscuits which he tucked into straight away. The food arrived and the breakfast was fantastic, meaty sausage, thick bacon that wasn’t far off a gammon steak, thick toast all washed down with a cup of tea. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The breakfast is slightly more expensive than a supermarket type of cafe but the quality and service are more than worth the extra pound that the fresh local ingredients give you. We will definitely be coming back. I would just say thanks very much for your hospitality while we were there.

What a find! Tucked away between roads this is a pit stop to be highly recommended. The salads that my wife and our hosts ate were worthy of any five starred restaurant. My ham egg and chips was one of the tastiest ever. The staff were both courteous and helpful. If only we lived closer!

Hadn't been here for a little while due to the fire and ill health but I have to report that the food was delicious as it always is.We both had the Quiche Lorraine and Salad which was on the Special Board.Service was a bit slow to start of with but speeded up so in the end all was satisfactory.Just a couple of gripes though.Firstly the Specials Biard is not very visible from most areas of the restaurant and unless you ask you don't whats available.Scondly.and this has been a bugbear for all the time we've been going there is that nobody ever asks you if you want a sweet and again the board with the list of sweets is not visible to most there.The restaurant must be losing a fortune in sales as I, for one ,like to have a sweet after my main course.This will not stop us returning again as the food is so good and inexpensive .

Such a gem to find after a hot day's shopping in Bangor! We were able to sit outside, with our dog - bonus for her. Service was LOVELY - I'd hardly sat down when our waitress (I'm so sorry, I didn't get your name) came out to us with a bowl of water and some dog treats. Our order was taken immediately: our drinks arrived within minutes, and our food arrived very shortly after that. My hot bacon and chicken salad was SO beautifully presented, my husband was very complimentary about his chips. There's a lot of variety on the menu for quick, good eating, the food is fresh, and it's very reasonably priced.

Fantastic find! We came here while on holiday after being let down by a nearby cafe closing early (cue distraught toddler in tow…) and found this one with good reviews. So glad we did! The owner / manager greeted us warmly and all the staff were so lovely and accommodating of us and our two little ones - offering plastic cutlery and straws without needing to ask! There’s so many thoughtful touches to make your dining experience stress free with little ones - brilliant high chairs with trays, copious colouring books and crayons (no blunt colouring pencil issues here! Haha) and the baby changing area was another level… In regards to the food and coffee it was really delicious, lots of choice from a local supplier and really prompt service. So glad we found this place - we will be back! Thank you so much!

Food is quite basic cafe style food, sandwiches etc. Service was in Welsh which is always nice. Out total bill for two sandwiches and three drinks came to over £50 which we thought was incredibly expensive, and certainly not worth the money that we paid. I’ve heard so much good things about this place however it did not deliver on this occasion, it was average at best.

Our visit to Ty Golchi today was excellent. The food was very good (not microwaved as is often the case in many restaurants!!), the staff were attentive and the prices meant the total cost was excellent value for money. The best reference I can give is that Ti Golchi is very busy at lunch time. Go early to ensure you do not have to wait for a table!

Visited for lunch, it was fairly busy a few spare tables. The food was very disappointing and not up to the standard and quality of previous visits. The burger was very bland and the chips I brought home to give to the dogs as a treat, they were tasteless. Previous visits we have adored the chips and the meals overall. It wasn’t cheap either. When I went to pay, the assistant asked ‘was everything ok’ and I told her it wasn’t a scratch on previous visits, told her what I was doing a disappointment the chips had been . She said ‘Oh’ ..... that’s it, no apology just gave me the bill to pay. Not a comment received. Very disappointed indeed.

My wife and I arrived for a 2pm Festive Tea and had left by 2.45pm!! On arrival a waitress told us where our table was "just round the corner there" - we sat down, crackers, a plate and a Xmas serviette on an awaiting plate each. We were asked as to our preferences of sandwiches and shortly afterwards the tea/coffee arrived - no sugar offered or supplied - we had to ask for it. Waitress returned with 6 small sachets of sugar which she deposited on the bare wooden table. When the food arrived - our sandwiches were lovely but from that, and in my opinion, it went downhill from there - why were two warm stuffing balls and two filo pastry fried brie placed in the middle of the cakes? I am not a lover of cupcakes or cinnamon - two large cup cakes on the plate and small star shaped Welsh cakes with a large amount of cinnamon therein. OK I can accept that you cannot cater for each and every taste. This is not our first tea or festive tea but I cannot say that what we had would entice me to go back there again. Generally a staff member asks if you want a top-up, not here - one did ask whilst she was cleaning a nearby table and holding a rag and spray if everything was OK but the speed she moved at hardly enabled any response! My wife found the food to be OK but was also disappointed on the standard/quality of service - I got the distinct impression that it was a case of 'here's your food, eat up and leave'. We did just that and not to return again. There are other and far better teas in the area and I will be 'voting with my feet and wallet'. Is 45mts to eat a festive tea a record? In most other places we have spent more than double that time and left a generous tip for the staff. General feeling from both of us was that the service was poor, inattentive staff, food - far too sweet and as locals we are unlikely to return to Ty Golchi.

I had lunch at Ty Golchi and immediately I arrived I felt safe. Firstly there was a Track and Trace to sign which was reassuring, all staff wore masks and the tables were safely distanced. And that was before I got to the food! That was, as always superb. It arrived promptly and was delicious. This was my first venture out from Lockdown and I must admit I was a bit anxious.

Went here for lunch today on the recommendation of a friend and I was really really impressed. Upon parking in the ample car park we spotted a lovely little shop adjacent to the Ty Golchi which sold the most beautiful items we walked through the shop then into the Ty Golchi. The staff very welcoming and smartly dressed, We were seated and our drinks taken, we ordered the soup of the day with a sandwich and my 4 year old the kids pizza. Meals arrived pretty quickly and were well presented, the food was really nice. My daughter needed the toilet but I was quite disappointed, the floor in both cubical was very wet (unsure if it was urine or water) the toilet roll holder kept falling off the wall, (I did notice blue tack on the top of it, I presumed this was to try and keep it shut..........failed!!) it was a very busy lunch time and maybe the staff didn’t get time to check them out regularly. It didn’t put us off completely as I will return. No WiFi either!!

I had won a voucher for Afternoon Tea for two and decided that I would book the Festive Afternoon Tea for 5 of us which I would have to pay the additional difference for. I was a little disappointed with the Xmas Pud Eclair - I expected an eclair with Xmas pud in it or Xmas pud flavoured cream ?! It was a small choux bun decorated to look like a xmas pud..... that’ll teach me ! Each one of us was allowed to choose a sandwich in a flavour of choice - they did not bring a selection as in a traditional a/tea - I rather liked that as I don’t eat the cheese sandwich which is always one of the options. There were 7 sweet cakes if I recall - very sweet and possibly a little sickly if you don’t have a sweet tooth like me! There was plenty of tea and coffee brought to the table when we asked for it! There were a couple of other savoury items that accompanied the sandwiches - a tasty stuffing ball was one of them and a sausage roll. We were able to take the left over cakes home in a box. It was ok but I wouldn’t necessarily have it again!

Visited on Thursday, 19th September with a friend. Arrived at 1215pm and it was already very busy. I had emailed them the day before to book a table but apparently they don’t monitor the emails so phoning them is the best way to book. We decided to sit outside as it was such a lovely day. The staff were extremely friendly and couldn’t be more helpful. I was disappointed that they had run out of jacket potatoes which is what I was planning to have but never mind there was plenty of other choices on the menu. Something to please everyone. My friend who has allergies was impressed with the gluten free options on the menu. My friend had an impressive salad which had cheese, ham, prawns and tuna in it. She was very happy with it. I had some sandwiches, salad and crips. It was very nice and fresh. The building itself doesn’t look that impressive from the outside but inside has been decorated nicely and modern. I hadn’t been to the Tŷ Golchi for years and pass it all the time on the way to Bangor but I am glad I visited today. I will definitely be returning soon and hope there will be jacket potatoes available when I do!!

Also table hadn't been cleaned from the day before , lots of crumbs and there was a long strand of someone's hair by the cruet set.

I’m a regular visitor to this restaurant and again today had lovely food. the Welsh rarebit was delicious served with salad. As was the coffee cake. My friends veggie burger looked delicious too. The service is always excellent and the food is always served hot and of a high Standard. It’s always busy so I recommend to book a table.

Had lunch herd a couple of months ago and it was superb - ham, egg and chips. Had lunch 2 weeks ago and it was dreadful - pea and ham soup and a sandwich. The bread was hard and filling not nice and the pea and ham soup tasted like a watered down can of mushy peas with a few cut up slices of boiled ham in it. I would suggest that the chef actually tasted the soup before dishing it up - it was really awful. And having read the reviews here, I see that I'm not the only one who finds some of the staff lacking in waiting-on and people skills. Which means that the manager is not doing his/her job properly. Shame because most of the time the food is actually great. But some of the staff are not cut out for their jobs.

Visit here on a regular basis because i love it. Firstly all the staff are very welcoming and friendly. The menu has good choice and is not expensive and also the portions are generous. The place is clean and tidy always and i like that the decor is quirky. The bathroom is also very clean. The choice of cakes are good and are always fresh and tasty. I would recommend the whole menu but especially the tapas and ham egg and chips they are delicious. Mandy and Ben are lovely people and do a great job running the place. Would highly recommend.

Nice change to sit in the sun eating our lunch. It is great to be served by Welsh speaking staff. Fed up of not being able to speak my own language in my own country.....shame on you (again Tripadvisor).

A friendly, welcoming bistro serving breakfast and lunches, great menu choice and good kids menu too. Plenty of parking and easy to find, it gets very busy always a good idea to ring and reserve a table rather than stand and wait.

Quite disappointed with our lunch experience today. We opted for the carvery. The meat was nicely cooked, beef beautifully tender. The lady serving it was quite miserable, and gave the impression she didn’t want to be there. The roast potatoes could have done with several more minutes in the oven, didn’t even look like they were roasted, gravy thin and tasteless,lovely cauliflower cheese and vegetables. The service was poor, our napkins and cutlery was unceremoniously dumped on the table! Not once during the meal did anyone check the meal was satisfactory, nor were we offered more drinks. The deserts were nice. I have noticed that each time we eat here the service is extremely poor. They seem to think that customers will go there just for the food, however, that is only half the experience. Service is the other half. There are several eateries in the area that provide far superior service, and equally if not tastier food. It is not the same as it used to be, and I for one will not be frequenting Ty Golchi again until the service improves. It is not cheap, and for the prices charged I also expect quality service. Very disappointed.

Visited for a coffee and light breakfast. Lattes were warm and extremely weak, and I don’t like strong coffee, so that’s saying something. Having brought lattes , we were informed that crumpets ordered were not available so had tea cakes instead. Surely we should have been told of availability before serving drinks, which were cold by the time the tea cakes turned up.

Former favourite but not any more. Slow to greet, poor welcome, even longer to take an order. When the coffee finally arrived most was in the saucer.

Landed at 14.50 today, and found out after arriving that hot food could not be ordered after 3pm. We were relieved as we thought we’d made it in time!! Or so we thought!!! Staff rude, aloof and completely ignored us when we walked in. We sat ouselves down as we were made to feel invisible!! After 5 mins we had to get our own menu’s, at this time another couple sat down at the table next to ours!! They also got up to pick their own menu’s. We waited until15.10hrs!!! 20 mins after arriving and we still hadn’t been served!! Not even a hello, and what made matters worse was that the people that arrived after us got served before us!!! At this point enough was enough!! We got up and left!!

Went in here few weeks ago, only 3 of us. It was lunchtime, fairly busy but there were tables available. We were stood at the counter for a few minutes and completely ignored by all staff who just carried on without saying anything.

Visited on a monday. Was very busy. Had to wait a while to get a table (Understandable as we hadn't booked). We got seated onto a dirty table. Eventually the young girl came back to give it a wipe. Took the staff a long time to order our drinks and food and even then the wait for the drinks and food was a long. But when it did arrive, the food was excellent. Good size portions. Of course I would come back. Just hopefully during a quiet period.

The food is made by the staff/owner and it shows in quality. Everything I have tried has been very tasty. Now I go there 2 times a week to buy their delicious bread and usually end up having a cake as well. The owners work very hard and they deserve to be thanked. Hope they are going to be very successful in the years ahead. I would particularly recommend the seeded loaf.

Lovely little restaurant with a warm, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Welsh tapas - sounds odd but it works :-) An interesting mix of typical Spanish style tapas dishes (cod baked with a tomato and olive sauce) and some with a Welsh twist (cockles and laver bread). The young lady who served us was really helpful and friendly. Thank you for being patient and supportive with my husband’s learner level Welsh!

Good service. Honestly the food was overpriced and overwhelmingly below average. ordered the pork belly and only half of it came and was incredibly chew . No staff about to tell them about it . Drink are good though only good thing about my meal . EDIT: After returning about 6 months later everything was so much better honestly seemed like a different restaurant. The food was really nice this time I had the fajitas under the recommendation of someone else guess the last time I visited we must have just come at a bad time.
