Conwy Falls Forest Park: Scenic Dining & Waterfall Walks
Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Portmerion, our caf was meticulously designed by Sir William Clough Ellis to harmonise with the iconic architecture of the region. We pride ourselves on offering an extensive menu featuring all-day breakfast options, freshly prepared hot and cold meals, artisanal cakes, and a selection of beverages, all served in a welcoming environment. Our spacious decking area and Meadow provide panoramic views of the surrounding natural beauty, complemented by free Wi-Fi and a dog-friendly policy to accommodate all visitors. While we warmly welcome walk-ins, we recommend pre-booking a table to ensure availability, particularly during peak seasons. We are committed to transparency regarding dietary requirements and allergens, advising guests to consult our staff for detailed information.The caf also serves as a gateway to the Conwy Falls waterfall walk, with proceeds from entry fees directly supporting the preservation of this ancient woodland. Our collaboration with Go Below Underground Adventures allows us to offer packed lunches for adventurers, ensuring a seamless experience from dining to exploration. With free parking and accessible public toilets, we strive to make your visit as comfortable as possible. Our one-way system and clear signage aim to enhance safety and enjoyment for all guests. While our pathways may present challenges for those with mobility restrictions, we remain dedicated to providing an inclusive environment where possible. Every detail, from our menu curation to our scenic setting, reflects our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
