We were passing by and stopped for this superb artisan icecream shop. We tried forest fruits, lemon sorbet, blueberry cheesecake honeycomb. All were fantastic, blueberry Cheesecake being our favourite

Amazing ice cream. I had the Chocolate Cookie. My husband had Raspberry Ripple and Chocolate. It was so hard to decide what to have. The flavours all look so nice. We already plan to come back for pizza too. The village is beautiful and worth returning to.

I’ve tried plenty of gluten-free pizzas, and let’s be honest—most of them taste like a sad cracker with toppings.This isn’t just ‘good for gluten-free’—it’s just good pizza. A slice of pure happiness—without the wheat beat.” 🍕✨

Delicious ice cream with an amazing variety of flavours! The salted caramel was so good I had to go back for seconds.

Hands down the best ice cream I've ever had. A little pricey but totally worth it and generous portions. I had white chocolate and normal chocolate - and often you can't taste the white chocolate but this was amazing. My partner had the cherry and strawberry cheesecake, now I'm not a massive cherry lover but I could have stolen his too it was so good! We also had pizza which was super delicious too. Stop by if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed.

Glaslyn Artisan Ice Cream & Pizza is hands down a must-visit in Beddgelert. The pizza is fresh, flavorful, and straight out of a proper wood-fired oven — but the real star of the show? The ice cream. Easily the best in the world. Creamy, rich, and bursting with flavor in every scoop. We’re still dreaming about it. The staff were friendly and welcoming, even with the place buzzing with people (which it often is — for good reason). Great outdoor seating with stunning views makes the experience even better. Whether you're hiking nearby or just passing through, don’t miss this spot. You’ll regret it if you do!

Incredibly tasty ice cream made on site. It’s so hard to find genuine artisanal ice cream with more interesting flavours but this place ticks both boxes. As a pastry chef i usually have low expectations for a pistachio ice cream but theirs was packed with real pistachio flavour. A big queue outside but the staff were efficient so it moved quickly. Highly recommend!

The pizza was amazing after a long hike and the ice cream even better. Not a single thing wrong about this place and plenty of wonderful things about it!

The only place to go to refuel after doing Snowdon (on foot)!! The restaurant offers some great pizza toppings that will cater to everyones appetites. The prices are comparable to inner city, chain take-aways (Dominos, Pizza Hut etc), however the quality is far superior. If you are in North Wales then this is a must for any discerning pizza lover.

Set in the beautiful village of Beddgelert this cafe and ice cream parlour is well worth a visit. Close to the river there is a small free on site car park additionally there is a large pay and display car park at the far end of the village a short walk away. The surrounding scenery is exceptional and there a lot of lovely walks in the area including one suitable for young children to see Gelert's Grave a local tourist attraction. The café serves a wide range of meals but is particularly notable for its pizzas which are freshly made. They come in various sizes but they provide a box to take away anything you are unable to finish. The café has play tables to keep young children amused and is clean and bright. After you finish your meal you must find room to pop next door to the associated Ice Cream Parlour there are around 30 flavours on offer all made on the premises and of exceptional quality. The prices in the café are quite expensive but good for a treat. If you don't have a meal the ice cream is a must.
