Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We fancied a change from a usual breakfast so decided to try here. We sat in the back part of the cafe and it was really lovely with a beautiful little garden. My boys had a Nutella pancake and a biscoff chocolate one. Both really...enjoyed them. I opted for a savoury pancake; cheese, ham and onion. All pancakes were very nice and fresh. My only negative feedback is that it is a tad expensive, so coming here would be a treat. Staff were lovely and attentive also.More

Called in today on a hot day in Caernarfon. Wasn't too busy but there were a couple of people in front of us, including a pair of French men who didn't speak great English. When one was choosing his ice cream flavours he pointed and...asked for "mint please" the young lady behind the counter rolled her eyes and said "that's dog ice cream" in a very short manner. The poor guy was completely confused and embarrassed. The place may produce lovely ice cream, but being nice is much more important than that. The young lady wasn't much better when I made my order, she seemed offended that we were there.More

Dropped into escape the rain. Dog friendly which is not always the case in North Wales. Very nice Dutch style pancakes although very expensive. Kids enjoyed them, my wallet less so. Good service and nice atmosphere.

We live locally and go all the time as this is the best ice cream and pancakes in the area, Amy and her team are so friendly and welcoming. So many amazing flavours of ice cream i always struggle to decide what to have, they...also do really good pancakes. I prefer the savoury ones and the kids love the sweet ones.More

Will start off by saying how lovely all the girls are in here. Fab and friendly. Nothing too much for them. We had lovely fresh pancakes but with hardly anything on them. We paid just over £30 for 2 pancakes and 2 latte’s. I found...this very expensive to think we could have had two decent meals elsewhere for that price. It was fabulous one off but certainly not somewhere you can visit often for the prices. Yes I get everything has gone up food wise, but the extras we asked for wasn’t worth the price.More

Absolutely wonderful pancake shop! Super attentive staff for whom nothing is too much trouble! Even made us a puppacino even though it's not on the menu! Cannot recommend enough. Everything was made fresh to order including the gluten free pancakes. Delicious!

This place is a gem. They do a huge range of savoury and sweet pancakes. The garden room area is bright and cosy. Staff were friendly and helpful and gave good recommendations. The pancakes were delicious. We opted for savoury and tried the sweet sauce...on top on recommendation from a member of staff and it was strangely good! Well worth a visit!!More

Delicious savoury pancakes! Great range of toppings offered and loads of choices for vegetarians. All cooked fresh to order and staff friendly and welcoming. Menu offered range of sweet pancakes and ice cream too (though we didn’t try those).

We found this small cafe and were drawn in by the offer of pancakes. There was a huge selection of sweet and savoury toppings on offer. The pancakes were lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole visit.

If, like is you get sick of “same old same old” for lunch (what we call supermarket cafes) try this. Delicious and beautifully cooked Dutch pancakes with sweet or savoury toppings. They are a bit thicker than standard pancakes - very nice

Stopped off for a snack here and was pleased to see they offer a gluten free batter for their pancakes. I went for Nutella and banana - the pancake was big with plenty of banana, but only a tiny amount of Nutella in a tiny...pot, which meant the pancake was quite dry overall. Still glad to see GF options, but toppings could be more plentiful.More

Sorry you didn’t get much Nutella. The rising costs of some products we’ve had to scale back, Nutella we’ve found over the summer has been very popular, but we’ve had a crazy amount of waste left in the pots, so have not been over filling...More

One of those establishments that's easy to miss. We decided on savoury pancakes and smoothies. What a bewildering choice. To add to that there was also a specials board (which I managed to miss). The food was lovely and the staff very friendly. We were...both more than satisfied when we left. I can't comment on whether it's expensive or not. To do that I would need to make comparisons with other pancake houses.More
