Swellies Cafe in Gwynedd

Great little bistro, super breakfasts..usual (favourite) choice ..for a change we decided on the Beefburger not usually a choice for myself..so a little apprehensive? Spoilt for choice I decided to chance making it my choice for lunch today!.. I have had many a burger, unfortunately at most disappointing never quite living up to the expectation? overall they have been so drab? "What a relief" & a pleasing suprise my first 'Swellies Burger" was placed before me, grease/fat free!!... At last a proper Burger just made from good & wholesome 'Welsh Beef' truly a real treat!! ...Highly reccomended... enjoy enjoy. Harry & Gill.

Lovely little place, very welcoming and they provided a high chair for the baby and dogs are allowed. The food was great and reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit.

Visited on a very busy Sunday and the drinks and food order was quickly taken but we waited over 30 minutes before the drinks came which we had finished before the food came 20 minutes later only 2 out of the 3 arrived and this was put down to a communication break down with the kitchen there was no sign of the third dish arriving after finishing the 2 dishes that were served and waiting another 20 minutes we left The food we did get was ok and the setting is great but only go if you have lots of time to spend

Fabulous little cafe with gorgeous food. Service was excellent too. Dog friendly and outside seating all very clean great atmosphere

Too busy to give you what you’re paying for….“Could I get some toast to go with breakfast please?”15 minutes later and I really tried to make the breakfast last waiting for the toast.Waitress; “Do you still want the toast?”Me, “I think it’s a bit late now”At the till, “I didn’t charge you for the toast”“It would’ve been a problem if you had”“Well we’re really busy and you’re not the only ones here”That pretty much sums the place up. The food is good, the place is nice. The service is totally 1970’s. Basil Fawlty all the way.They’re the only place open for breakfast and have no competition. That will change and all their business will go elsewhere.—UPDATE——-The reply states 1 star is harsh so obviously it’s ok for staff to say…“Well we’re really busy and you’re not the only ones here”So it’s ok to not bring all of someone’s order and not even apologise? I was really polite about it too.I’d zero stars for Swellies if it was possible.3 times I’ve tried Swellies and every time the service has been awful. Never once has my coffee showed up within 30 minutes of my breakfast. The food is good but it isn’t great. The chef is good enough to get a job at McDonalds. Maybe he could learn about service there too.

A tranquil little gem of a cafe with super-conscientious staff, high quality ingredients, and very reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

An amazing spot for brunch. You can sit outside and enjoy the waterside. The breakfast was tasty and ingredients were fresh. Service excellent. Highly recommend

Super breakfasts, friendly service and even got takeaway cakes for later in the day as they looked so good!

Love the Swellies, fantastic food and quick service. The freshly squeezed orange juice is to die for, and I love the Brunch sandwiches (Halloumi is best) and the Rarebit with poached eggs is always spot on. I come here as often as I can!

Really enjoyed our meal here! The staff were really helpful, and the menu had so much option! This cafe really caters for all types of people, with he biggest range of gluten free and vegetarian/vegan products that I have seen. Theres also plenty of options for those who eat meat (such as myself!). The vegan hot chocolate (pictured) as one of the best I've ever had!
