Pantri, Llanberis: Reviews & Ratings
What a delicious lunch. Better than any other place anywhere in the country and I can’t recommend the food enough. Thick ham and cheese ciabatta with an amazing salad. Delicious. And my husband’s Welsh rabbit was the best ever! One of the first completely sunny days so they were super busy and rushed off their feet so there was a wait... but it was worth it. I will say though, to the manager, when your staff are rushed off their feet you need to make their work fun. You need to make them smile, but that was it. Very good indeed
Good food, superb location. Neat and clean bathroom and fully stocked too. We had our final breakfast before leaving back home. Good for vegan/vegetarian food. Will highly recommend. View from the cafe is amazing

After a morning hike at Dinorwic Quarry, we were starving and looking for a good spot to eat—preferably somewhere outdoors to enjoy the sunshine. We came across Pantri, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. It was a bit busy when we arrived (just past 12 noon), but we managed to find a table outside. The vibe was great—laid-back and sunny. We ordered Eggs All Ways, Potato and Chorizo Hash, Mixed Olives, Cheesy Fries, and Hot Chocolate. The portions were generous, and everything was delicious. The Cheesy Fries were a surprise favorite—so good and full of flavor! I actually felt bad not finishing everything because we were so full and satisfied. One of my most memorable breakfast experiences, and I’m so glad we decided to stop here. Highly recommend Pantri, especially after a good hike in the area!
Oh the joy of cute little wooden cafe’s in the middle of nowhere! Surrounded by beautiful mountains and a woman run business! Young, enthusiastic girls running this place. The energy in the cafe was delightful! My mom said it was the beat coffee she had in the UK since her visit. The cake was moist and decadent! We were short of time but would have definitely tried the soup or had a meal! They also had a good selection of jams and marmalades for sale!
Friendly service even though they were super busy. They did GF bread and had a deliciously moist GF chocolate cake.
We were seven people having breakfast on a Sunday morning at 9am. I don’t have photos as I wasn’t expecting to review - but breakfast far exceeded expectations. Flat whites were perfect - hot, strong, and great flavour. Herbal tea wasn’t a problem - and a great selection. We had a mix of their “little Welsh Breakfast”, fluffy pancakes with crispy bacon, banana and maple syrup and a full Welsh. One of us wanted a specific style of egg - no problem, no fuss. Service friendly and efficient. This is a great pit stop.
Amazing food and friendly staff. A must visit when passing Llanberis! Coffees, milkshakes, cakes and the full Welsh breakfast are as good if not better than they looked!!!
