Country Cooks

A spotlessly clean cafe, with great food and excellent service. We stopped for food on the way to Betws-Y-Coed and would highly recommend this cafe. The staff are friendly and the waiting staff are brilliant. The menu covers a wide range of dishes and the food is great quality, with good portion sizes.

A lovely pitstop! The staff were very helpful, and the diner has a wonderful atmosphere, lined with cat memorabilia.

I stumbled across country cooks, a hunger stricken driver traversing the A5, when I saw “stop, it’s pancake time”, I had to pull in for a full English, it’d be rude not to. The decor was questionable at best, the staff were either juvenile or grumpy pensioners, the eggs on my full English were simply lacklustre, but the rest, including the sausages was pleasant, the atmosphere was nice, quiet enough to converse with peers, and good value too, let’s just say, I drove off satisfied.

Absolutely love spot to eat and take in the stunning location. The staff are friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The food was second to none, fresh and hot and generous portions, we left plates just short of being licked clean. Thank you for a lovely experience

The Jolly Wonderer has been wondering again 🐕🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️ We went to this lovely diner/cafe after a family member recommended it. Great choice for a mid-jouney stop and stretch of legs, we thoroughly enjoy our pancakes, ice cream and syrup. (We couldn't decide which we liked more so had half of each other's 😂. Very welcoming, fussed the dog, water was brought over for her and then spilt when her lead fell in the bowl 🫣🤦‍♂️ Would we go back next time we're passing through... absolutely!! Service was 10/10 and overall would 100% recommend!!

Pleasant staff, comfortable seating and good portions of good food. The coffee was hot and really nice coffee. A great place to pull over for a meal and a break from driving on the A5 in North Wales.

Updating my previous review after various visits over the years. This is a Lovely café with friendly atmosphere & pleasant staff. Food cooked fresh & served nice & hot. The salad is great & unusually served with fruit in it, which we like. We both had the quiche served with chips and salad, we enjoyed our meal but we were a bit disappointed that the quiche was only cheese and onion. Normally if it's not the traditional Quiche Lorraine (bacon and cheese) it usually says on the menu. It would be great if this could be the case and also can I suggest a vegan option. Having said that we would definitely recommend this café and wouldn't hesitate to return. The café has numerous cat ornaments & teapots around the window sills and on selves around the walls, plenty to look at while waiting for your meals, also a lovely view from the windows. 🙂

Popped in on way past. Good carpark, good choice in menu. The place was spotless. Even where the cat ornaments and shelf.must take forever to clean them. We both had the steak stew and cheesy mash.. iit was all very nice and tasty. All home cooked flavours. Great for a cafe.while waiting for rhe food it was nice watching the birds eating from the bird feeders. This is good cafe food. Will definitely go again. A little quiet background music or radio on is all i would change.

I've been here before but today for some reason we sat here for 20 minutes and I can only assume because I don't speak Welsh as everyone else did. It was a very co scoops effort to avoid us by all staff. Racist much?

On the long journey back from Bangor to Derbyshire, Country Cooks was a fantastic place to take a pit-stop and recharge the batteries. A large car park bordered by the beautiful Welsh scenery, runs up to the expansive restaurant. Tidy looking on the outside, with well kept surrounding borders and impeccably clean on the inside. A nice touch on the inside is that the kitchen is open onto the seating area, so you can see your food being prepared. The seating is mainly American diner booth type with smart green check. A copious menu for both drinks and food, with some cracking breakfast and brunch dishes, the full English looked fantastic. Prices were very reasonable too. The local postman popped in for a late breakfast and a chat with the owner, which is a good sign. Clearly somebody was a big fan of cats too, they were hundreds and hundreds of every possible depiction - ceramic, toy, ornaments etc - an impressive collection.
